When Zhao Rao's mother passed away, she was already five years old. At that time, she was already sensible. It turned out that she was very close to Zhao Yong. After all, she was Zhao Yong's only daughter, and she was also the eldest princess. He loved her even more than the two princes. She used to like Zhao Yong, but all the father and daughter disappeared because of her mother's death.
She hated Zhao Yong's ruthlessness and hated him for causing her mother's death.
"It seems that Lu Wushuang was hidden by Lu Yaoyao. What does she want to do?" Zhao Rao was more and more confused. If Lu Yaoyao wanted to declare war on the State of Qi, it didn't seem to make sense. Father was not angry at all. Instead, it seemed that he knew this would happen.
Cheng Zheng walked up to her and looked down at her confused little face. "No matter what Lu Yaoyao wants to do, you shouldn't investigate this matter anymore. This is the Ye family. If Ye Chunnan finds out, you can't explain it. At that time, you will only delay His Majesty's affairs."
"What does Father want to do?" Zhao Rao frowned and asked.
"If you didn't guess it, why are you so nervous?" Cheng Zheng asked in a low voice. "You care about His Majesty. Why pretend to hate him?"
Zhao Rao chuckled. "I never need to pretend. My mother is not your biological sister. Of course, you can feel nothing about her death, but that is my mother. If it weren't for him and Concubine De, my mother wouldn't have died. Hehe, why am I telling you this? Maybe you still like Concubine De and think that she treats you better than my mother, right?"
When it came to Concubine De, Zhao Rao's tone became sharp and unkind. Everyone thought that Concubine De was a good person. Only she knew very well that Concubine De had something to do with her mother's death. Unfortunately, no one believed her no matter what she said.
"What did your mother say to you before she died?" Cheng Zheng was not close to the former Empress. Concubine De, who was his mother's maid, took care of him. He really didn't believe that Concubine De, who had always been timid and gentle, would kill the former Empress.
"My mother didn't say anything to me. I saw with my own eyes how Concubine De caused my mother to miscarry and die. Is that enough?" Zhao Rao sneered. "Or do you want to be like my father and think that I'm too young to know right and wrong and think that my mother deserves it?"
Cheng Zheng saw a strong hatred in Zhao Rao's eyes. This hatred came from Concubine De and the Emperor. He suddenly felt sorry for her. He didn't know what she had experienced when she was young to have accumulated this hatred until now.
"I remember that the Emperor was good to your mother." Cheng Zheng said in a low voice. This was the truth. Although Zhao Yong was dissolute by nature, he still showed enough respect to the former Empress.
Zhao Rao turned and walked into the carriage. She didn't want to talk to Cheng Zheng anymore. That would only make the pain she had suppressed for more than ten years explode. She didn't want to lose control, especially at a time when she didn't have the ability to avenge her mother. She could only suppress it again and again and see how Concubine De enjoyed her current glory and wealth. She could see how her enemies lived freely.
Cheng Zheng hurriedly followed, "Jin 'er, Jin' er!"
"Do you know what's not bad?" Zhao Rao looked at Cheng Zheng coldly. "If he really treated my mother well, he wouldn't have taken that lowly servant Concubine De as his woman in order to suppress my mother. He wouldn't have slapped my mother in the face like this. You also know that my mother treated that lowly servant like a sister. Do you think that my mother didn't feel anything when her husband and sister betrayed her at the same time? He even made Concubine De give birth to the Second Prince before my mother. Is this considered respect? Then the word 'respect' is too laughable. "
Zhao Yong was indeed very dissolute. When Concubine De was promoted to be a beauty, he was also very surprised. He had thought that it was the former Empress' intention to use Concubine De to win the Emperor's heart. Cheng Zheng didn't think that it was for such a reason. "The Emperor originally … … probably just liked Concubine De's youth and beauty. It's not as complicated as you think."
Zhao Rao looked at him angrily. "Am I thinking too complicated or are you trying to protect him? If my mother's spirit is in heaven, she definitely won't let him off. "
"Jin 'er, he is your Imperial Father!" Cheng Zheng thought of Zhao Yong's illness and scolded Zhao Rao.
"So what?" Zhao Rao asked coldly.
So what if Zhao Yong was her Imperial Father? Could it change the fact that he had killed her mother?
"You should ask yourself if you really hate him that much." Cheng Zheng said in a low voice.
"Leave." Zhao Rao chased Cheng Zheng off the carriage.
Cheng Zheng looked at her helplessly. "What now? Can't I speak up for the Emperor? "
Zhao Rao cried out. "As my uncle, not only did you not share the same hatred, you even helped Concubine De. Don't think that I don't know that you are the same as my Imperial Father. Both of you are useless and have been charmed by Concubine De."
"I am different from your Imperial Father." Cheng Zheng was still sitting in front of her. He looked at her deeply. "You were still young at that time. Even if you knew about some things, you didn't know how to get the evidence. If it was really Concubine De who killed your mother, I will definitely be able to find out."
"Hmph." Zhao Rao snorted. She didn't completely believe Cheng Zheng's words. He didn't have any brotherly feelings for her mother. If she hadn't taken the initiative to look for him, he might have been won over by Concubine De.
Cheng Zheng looked at her amusedly. He reached out and pinched her cheek. "You don't even believe me?"
"Why should I believe you?" Zhao Rao said lightly. "You said that you are indebted to Concubine De. My mother only hates you. It's not impossible for you to help Concubine De."
"That time, Concubine De wanted me to help Princess Lan's husband. It was nothing else. Don't take it to heart." Cheng Zheng looked at Zhao Rao's still angry face. He didn't know why but he felt that she was cute and interesting. He couldn't help but move closer to her.
Zhao Rao sneered. "It seems that you and Concubine De are really close. She even asked you for help with Zhao Lan's husband."
"That's because she helped me before. Now that I've helped her, we naturally don't owe each other anything." Cheng Zheng listened to her sour tone. The smile in his eyes grew wider. "Speaking of closeness, who can be closer to me than you? Don't always push away the Emperor's concern for you. In his heart, you are more important than his other children. As for what Concubine De did back then, as long as you tell me, I will investigate it for you. The Emperor is not a foolish person. There is no evidence for what you said. He wouldn't kill Concubine De because of a five-year-old girl. Don't think too much. Concubine De also has two children. "
Although she said that, Zhao Rao still couldn't forgive Zhao Yong for what he had done to her mother.
