Chapter 186 Xu's Mother Enters the Palace
The story of the Crown Princess going out of the palace to pray for blessings and to give alms to the people gradually spread in the capital. Everyone praised the Crown Princess as a kind and beautiful woman.

When Xu Chunhua left, the people on both sides spontaneously formed a line around her. When they saw her appear, they all cheered loudly: "Long live the Crown Princess!" "Thousand years of life for the Crown Princess!"

Xu Chunhua had a decent smile on her face and nodded calmly to everyone. Sitting in the sedan chair, Xu Chunhua sighed in her heart that although the donation was very expensive, it was still worth it.

Her reputation has finally turned around.
, and no one dared to gossip about her anymore. Moreover, the people were very enthusiastic about her.

For so many years, Xu Chunhua has been bullied and looked down upon. How could she be as glorious as she is today?
She was very satisfied with this scene.

At this moment, a middle-aged woman in tattered clothes suddenly rushed in. Just as the guard was about to draw her sword, she knelt on the ground and shouted, "Please, Crown Princess, save me."

The people around saw this and started talking about it.

When the Crown Princess heard the sound, she frowned and asked the sedan bearers to stop the sedan.

She lifted the curtain and asked, "Why are you here? What happened? Tell me everything you know."

The woman immediately replied, "Princess, I really can't live any longer. My husband, in order to please his new second wife, deliberately accused me of being insane. I have been tied up at home and not given food or water."

Everyone looked at the middle-aged woman in front of them in surprise. She was thin and shriveled, with dark and rough skin, messy hair covering half of her face, and her body was dirty. A strong stench hit their noses.

Who is this person? Why did he ask the Crown Princess to help him? Is there any relationship between her and the Crown Princess?

The Crown Princess's face darkened when she heard this: "Nonsense! Your husband treats you like this, you should resist!"

Xu Chunhua shook her head and smiled bitterly: "What can I do if I resist? They are ruthless. If I make the slightest move, they will beat me with sticks."

Xu Chunhua paused and continued, "Crown Princess, you have a kind heart. Please have mercy on me. Save me. I am willing to work like a cow or a horse to repay you!"

Xu Chunhua's expression was sincere, her tone was sad, and she looked miserable and pitiful.

After hearing this, the people nearby felt even more sympathetic towards the woman.

"How about this! I will punish your husband for you. You will stay by my side for the time being! Someone, go wash up!"

Xu Chunhua had originally made an appointment with Xu's mother, and today she deliberately made Xu's mother suffer. Only in this way could she prove her kindness.

That's why she took the initiative to ask to bring Xu's mother with her.

The nanny beside Xu Chunhua frowned and said to Xu Chunhua: "Crown Princess, this person's origins are unknown, how can you bring her directly into the East Palace!"

Hearing this, Xu Chunhua smiled and said, "Don't worry, Madam! She is not a bad person! She is just a poor person."

In order to please Xu Chunhua, the maidservant beside Xu Chunhua quickly agreed: "Yes, Mammy, the Crown Princess has made up her mind, so don't try to persuade her!"

"How can the Eastern Palace allow these strangers to enter at will? Let's have someone check her identity first."

The nanny looked at Xu's mother, who looked like a beggar, with some disgust.

The Eastern Palace is inhabited by nobles, and she cannot bear the responsibility if anything goes wrong.

"Mammy, are you questioning me? I order you to send someone to investigate immediately! You don't have to worry about this matter. She is already so pitiful. If you don't give her a place to live, I'm afraid she will lose her life." Xu Chunhua scolded harshly.

The nanny was stunned. Looking at Xu Chunhua's cold face, she took a step back in fear and dared not say a word.

Xu Chunhua brought Xu's mother into the East Palace, ordered her to clean up the house, and then let her live in the East Palace. Because the East Palace was short of staff, Xu Chunhua specially called two maids to serve her.

While Xu Chunhua was busy with various chores in the East Palace, the outside world had already been in an uproar.

The people were talking about Xu Chunhua's kindness in bringing a beggar woman back to the East Palace.

The news of this incident soon spread throughout the imperial city.

"Oh..." Xu Chunhua was basking in the sun in the yard, and she sighed in her heart at her own wisdom.

He was able to come up with such a good idea and brought it into the palace by Xu's mother.

Xu Chunhua arranged a nice house for Xu's mother and asked the imperial physician to treat her.

Xu's mother was very weak and had indeed been tied up with chains for a long time.

And I haven't eaten much for a long time.

Very weak.

Xu Chunhua also didn't expect that Xu's mother was really so miserable.

Father Xu was such a cruel person. She sent the steward of the East Palace to go to Taohua Town and ask the county magistrate there how he could do things and allow such a inhumane thing to happen in Taohua Town.

Xu's father had scolded Xu Chunhua before, which made Xu Chunhua unhappy. This time, Xu Chunhua asked Xu's father to kneel down and beg for mercy.

Just when Xu Chunhua was feeling proud, the Crown Princess sent someone to summon her.

Xu Chunhua thought about it carefully and realized that she had not done anything bad recently. She had been doing good things recently.

So she went to meet the former Crown Princess with full confidence.

The former Crown Princess wore a gorgeous red dress embroidered with a gold peony pattern and wore twelve phoenix hairpins on her head. She looked radiant.

Xu Chunhua was very surprised. Was she still the former Crown Princess who kept her head down and only knew how to chant sutras in the Buddhist temple? As soon as the former Crown Prince died, she dressed up so extravagantly. Who was she showing it to?

"The daughter-in-law pays her respects to her mother." Xu Chunhua walked up to the former Crown Princess and knelt down to bow.

The former Crown Princess looked at her with a smile: "Get up!" Her voice was gentle and soft, and there was nothing unusual to hear.

But Xu Chunhua was frightened, because the tone seemed so different from before.

Xu Chunhua quickly stood up and asked cautiously, "I wonder what the Crown Princess wants to see her daughter-in-law about?" She was now certain that there was no good news in asking her to come today.

"Crown Princess, I didn't expect you to become more and more unbridled. I haven't disciplined you for a few days, and you actually brought a beggar back to the East Palace! You are so heavy now, and you don't take the dragon fetus seriously at all. You walk around everywhere and even meet those beggars."

The former Crown Princess accused Xu Chunhua with a serious face.

Xu Chunhua was stunned for a moment. She didn't understand what the former Crown Princess meant by what she had just said. But judging from her attitude, she definitely had bad intentions.

Xu Chunhua quickly responded and explained, "Crown Princess, you misunderstood. How could I dare to bring a beggar back to the East Palace? I just saw that the peasant woman was too pitiful and just wanted to help her."
