Chapter 492 Awe-inspiring
Jin Jiashu respectfully gave Ma Shangyi another half bowl of tea. Ma Shangyi took a sip from the tea bowl, put down the tea bowl, and exhaled: "This is what Empress Xu has experienced in the palace these years."

Jin Jiashu put down the teapot and was silent for a while.

He has been scared when he should be afraid, and he has cried when he should cry. Now his eyes are still red and swollen, but the tears will no longer fall.

Knowing what his biological mother went through after leaving home, he finally felt relieved. It's not that his mother abandoned him, it's just fate. God destined his mother and son to suffer these disasters. Now that my mother is about to have a bright future, and she has gotten rid of her vicious and mean relatives and has gained a new life, there is really no need to complain anymore. Dwelling on the pain of the past will not do him any good. It is better to relax his mind, be less resentful and more tolerant, so that he can welcome a better future.

He has suffered so much since childhood, shouldn't he have a better future?

Thinking of this, he raised his head and said to Ma Shangyi: "Aunt has suffered over the years. Now that my cousin has grown up, his future will be bright. The days when aunt will enjoy happiness are still to come. For the suffering she has suffered in the past , and those who have bullied her and let her down, don't worry about it. It's because they are not lucky enough to follow her aunt. They will no longer cause trouble to her, and her aunt will just leave herself alone. Take good care of your cousin and live your life well."

Ma Shangyi looked at the elegant and handsome young man in front of her and couldn't help but sigh.

From the young man's facial features, she could clearly see the shadow of Concubine Xu Xian. Anyone who saw the two at the same time would never doubt their blood relationship. But this young man was so cautious. Even though there were only two of them in the room, one old and the other young, and she was an insider, he kept his mouth shut and just called his biological mother "aunt". He was really well-behaved and sensible. It's just that I don't know how much hardship I had to endure to gain this understanding. If Concubine Xu Xian knew about it, she would definitely be heartbroken.

Thinking of this, Ma Shangyi's tone of voice became a little softer: "Ms. Xu has always been open-minded towards her old friends. She has also made it clear that she has never thought about hiding her name and has never tried to hide her name. If she one day enters the palace and becomes a concubine, she will have to do so. There will be a risk of being found out. But the emperor's will is decided, and Empress Xu can only obey. However, the emperor's actions will not leave any flaws. The list of maids and maids purchased by the Marquis Cheng'en Mansion had been prepared long before the concubine's decree came down, so no one would notice any flaws.

"As for the suggestions that Young Master Jin wrote to the capital a few days ago, the emperor also agreed and sent his confidants to Zunhua Prefecture to take advantage of the change of governor to revise all the documents and records that should be changed. It's over. There is also a chamberlain in the Qianqing Palace. His nephew is an official in a small county under Zunhua Prefecture. He has been transferred to the state government and is in charge of the torture chamber. If anyone comes to inquire about the disappearance of Empress Xu when she was a child, he will. I will tell the newly made story to the visitors."

Jin Jiashu suddenly realized it and felt a little complicated. The several suggestions he mentioned in letters to his "aunt" were actually just something he wanted to try, and he didn't expect his "aunt" to actually accept them. Unexpectedly, the emperor actually accepted it and took action quickly...

The emperor seems to be very kind to his "aunt", at least better than his father...

Jin Jiashu hesitated for a moment, then asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty... is he very concerned about his aunt's life experience?" He won't change his mind after his "aunt" gets older and loses his luster, right?
Ma Shangyi paused for a moment and then said: "The Emperor hopes that His Highness the Eighth Prince can successfully establish the Crown Prince and succeed him to the throne. He didn't care about Empress Xu's life experience, but he was worried that someone would make a fuss about this matter and hinder His Highness the Eighth Prince's appointment as Crown Prince. Grand Ceremony. Master Jin's idea is a good one, and it can prevent any future troubles about Empress Xu's life experience. Now that the documents of Zunhua Prefecture's Yamen have been changed, even if someone discovers the loopholes in Empress Xu's identity in the future, there will be no evidence. There is no conspiracy.”

Jin Jiashu understood the implication of her words and couldn't help but ask: "The case of the second bedroom... was decided a few days ago. Has Shang Yi heard about it?"

Of course Ma Shangyi heard about it. She found out clearly at the Duke Zhen's mansion last night: "Mrs. Duke Zhen once mentioned that Magistrate Huang of Chang'an Prefecture judged the case very fairly. Master Jin seems to be very satisfied with the result?"

Jin Jiashu swallowed: "Those who have committed crimes have been punished, and those who have done evil have not had a good end. Of course, the boy is satisfied." Ma Shangyi smiled slightly: "It's good that Master Jin is satisfied. These things It’s not for me to intervene. The emperor makes his own decision.”

It is related to whether the eighth prince's succession to the throne can go smoothly. The emperor can even manipulate Concubine Xu Xian's household registration documents. How could he allow someone from the second room of the Jin family to do bad things? They are just a few unruly people with low moral character. Concubine Xu Xian was often annoyed by them in the past. She could be magnanimous and not care, but the emperor was unwilling to let his beloved concubine suffer. When those people leave Chang'an, someone will deal with them. The emperor sent Lin Sandao, the imperial guard, to bring people here, naturally not just to let him serve as a guard for Ma Shangyi, an old nanny.

Concubine Xu Xian may not agree with the emperor's idea, but what the emperor is determined to do does not necessarily require Concubine Xu Xian's consent. In short, the most important thing is to ensure that the Eighth Prince can successfully establish a reserve!
If it hadn't been for Jin Jiashu's suggestion, the emperor might not have thought that he could pull the trigger. But there is no need to tell the young people these things, and it will save the children from feeling uncomfortable after hearing it.

Jin Jiashu, however, had guessed a bit of what Ma Shangyi meant, and felt awe-struck in his heart. He knew that even if he got close to his "aunt" again in the future, he would have to exercise caution and not get carried away just relying on his "aunt's" love and pampering. It was true that the emperor doted on his "aunt", but he would never tolerate him relying on this kinship to act recklessly and have a bad influence on his "aunt" and his "cousin" the eighth prince.

Thinking like this, he showed a humble expression and said politely: "Shang Yi no longer needs to call the boy 'Master Jin', just call him by his name. You are a close relative of the Queen Mother, and you are a close friend of the Queen Mother." A female official of this rank is no more than a child from the countryside. How dare I accept your title of 'Young Master'?"

Ma Shangyi smiled slightly: "Mother Xu asked me to take care of Master Jin after arriving in Chang'an. In the future, I will have to get along with Master Jin for a long time. If Master Jin feels that the word 'Master' is too Now that you are a heretic, how about I call you ‘Brother Tong’?”

Jin Jiashu hesitated: "Shang Yi, although my late father named the boy 'Jintong', it was inherited from his cousin Jin Wu. When my late mother was still alive, she didn't like this name and wanted to give it to her. The boy was named "Jia Shu". Now that the boy's family had died, when the Chang'an Mansion first came to investigate, the boy was worried about not revealing his true life experience for fear of causing trouble to his aunt, so he gave his name as Jin Jiashu, who is now in the Chang'an Mansion. We all know each other and already recognize the boy's new name. Only the uncle and aunt of the second wife will call the boy Jintong. In my heart, I also like the new name better."

When Ma Shangyi heard that this was the reason, she immediately followed suit: "In that case, I will call you 'Brother Shu', right? The name 'Jinjiashu' does sound more grand than 'Jintong'. He is a knowledgeable and decent scholar.”

This was a bit biased, but Jin Jiashu liked it quite a lot. He smiled sheepishly and responded: "As long as Shang Yi likes it."

"Brother Shu, don't call me Shang Yi anymore." Ma Shangyi smiled at him, "In the future, you and I will always live in the same home. Brother, you should still call me Ma Liugu. Closer."

Jin Jiashu was startled when he heard this: "What?"

Living in a home? !
