Zhou Zhicheng raised his head and saw the woman. He put down the account book with a smile.
It was Princess Huizhen and her maid, Cuilian.
Princess Huizhen fell in love with Zhou Zhicheng, but the emperor disapproved of their marriage. For one thing, he had an official wife, and for the other, the Zhou’Family was not rich.
Zhou Zhicheng was so handsome that Princess Huizhen fell in love with him at first sight. But the emperor looked down on him and he did not consent to the marriage. Even though Zhou Zhicheng’s wife, Rong Qiyue, had been killed by thieves, the emperor did not change his mind.
“Zhicheng, I have good news for you!” Huizhen said with a smile. Zhou Zhicheng helped her to sit down. The two of them had been together for a long time and they simply ignored the moral rules between men and women.
Cuilian lowered her eyes, not daring to look at them.
“What good news? Princess Huizhen, it’s my fault. I can’t get the emperor to change his prejudice. I wasted your youth … ” With a guilty look, he gently pulled up her soft hands and held them firmly.
Feeling his tenderness, Huizhen giggled, “You haven’t been out for a while, have you? Do you know that Hua Qiyue is going to adopt a son? You’d better sent your mute son to the Hua’s Mansion. If he was adopted, you would become a relative of the Hua’s Family. Maybe the emperor will agree to our marriage! ”
Zhou Zhicheng’s eyes lit up. But suddenly he thought of something, and his face darkened.
After Rong Qiyue died, his son Tianci was poisoned by Princess Huizhen. He became a mute and led a miserable life.
If other people saw the child, they would say that he had abused his son.
More importantly, Zhou Zhicheng wanted Tianci to stay. He was the mystery man and Rong Qiyue’s son. As long as the child was here, he would come back one day.
What a man hated the most was being cuckolded. There were only two wishes in his life. One was to marry Princess Huizhen, and the other was to chop the man who took away Rong Qiyue’s virginity into a thousand pieces!
“You don’t want Tianci to go? Hmph, Zhou Zhicheng, I knew it! ” Seeing Zhou Zhicheng’s uncertain face, Huizhen angrily shook off his hand.
Zhou Zhicheng smiled apologetically, “Princess, you got me wrong. I’d be glad to send that bastard away.”
“Look at you! Call me Huizhen. Don’t call me princess. In private, we can try to be more agreeable.” Princess Huizhen laughed. Seeing that Zhou Zhicheng was trying to defend himself, she could not help but feel sweet.
“Yes! I’ll do as you said! I just want to keep him and wait for the adulterer. ”
“Zhicheng, if we buy a maid, we will know all the news about him after he becomes the foster son of the Hua’s Family. We will know who is looking for that bastard.” Princess Huizhen took a light sip of tea.
Zhou Zhicheng patted his head, “How stupid I am! I didn’t think of that. Fine, I will have his wet nurse bring him to sign up for the selection.”
Princess Huizhen nodded with satisfaction. Her Mr. Right would not be a talented man, but a handsome, considerate and obedient man like Zhou Zhicheng.
Princess Huizhen grew up in the palace. She was arrogant and unruly. Many high-born young masters didn’t like her, but Zhou Zhicheng was crazy about her.
Huizhen felt she was respected and loved by Zhou Zhicheng, so she did not hesitate to kill Rong Qiyue to get him.
She was the princess of this country. She could marry whoever she wanted. But it would be difficult for her to find someone who would treat her with sincerity.
Zhou Zhicheng told the butler to go home. The butler ordered the wet nurse to take Tianci to sign up for the selection. Of course, she had to cover up the wounds on his body. If he had been selected, they would make up some excuses to cover up the fact

They could say that a vicious maidservant had abused him.
Zhou Zhicheng prayed that Hua Qiyue would choose his son. In that case, they would become relatives. That would be much easier for him to get the princess.

Hua’s Mansion.
“Pa!” Hua Qiyue slapped a stack of letters on the desk and startled You Shui and the servants next to her.
