Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family

Chapter 979: Chapter 979: Turmoil Approaches: Sisi in Peril (Part 2) Chapter 979: Chapter 979: Turmoil Approaches: Sisi in Peril (Part 2) The maid thudded to her knees, “Master, I’ve been wrongly accused! The title ‘Young Lord’ was originally designated by the Sect Master himself. This slave accidentally blurted it out in a moment of haste. I beg for the Master’s forgiveness.”

The young girl coldly snorted heavily, “Don’t forget, your Master now is me. Get out!”

“Yes, yes, yes.”

The maid scrambled and crawled away.

The rage in the girl’s heart did not subside, and she swept everything off the table onto the floor with an indifferent fling of her hand.

“Hmph! Betrayal from within! I’ll deal with you properly later… Liu Sisi, don’t think that I’ll let you off so easily!”

As she spoke, her face continually changed expressions. Suddenly, she picked up a long flag that was beside her and draped it over herself, “Someone come! I must see this for myself.”

She wanted to see what kind of expression the “old acquaintance” would have when they saw her once again!

Meanwhile, on the cargo ship.

Liu Sisi was trapped at the bottom of the cabin, which was fully equipped for living with clothes and food, with no restrictions on her freedom, except for being barred from going up to the deck.

Even the maid Xue Yi was released, allowed to attend to her by her side.

This truly made Liu Sisi somewhat baffled.

“Princess, what kind of people have captured us and why are they keeping us here?”

Xue Yi gently massaged her shoulders and whispered in her ear.

Liu Sisi felt this wasn’t difficult to guess and shook her head.

“I’m not sure who these people are but I think the answer will be revealed very soon.”

“The Princess really has breadth of spirit, even as a captive, you maintain an air of composure. I admire, truly admire you!”

Accompanied by this soft and coquettish laughter, the cabin door was opened from the outside revealing a petite silhouette.

Liu Sisi did not rise, but squinted and lifted her head to look over the newcomer, “Now that you’re here, shouldn’t you reveal your identity? What kind of skill is it to hide your face and show your tail!”

The woman looked at Liu Sisi’s current state and a grinding sound came from her teeth.

“Hide my face and show my tail? I have come today precisely to see you. Liu Sisi, aren’t you curious why I had you brought here?”

“Whether I ask or not, it depends on whether you want to tell. So why should I ask? If you have something to say, just say it, if not…”

Liu Sisi let out a cold, derisive laugh, “Then get out of my sight!”

“You…”

The woman was clearly infuriated, but seemed to remember something and moderated her tone, “Liu Sisi, don’t think just because I have treated you as a guest of honor until now, you can rest easy! I want you to know that taking your life would be as simple as lifting a finger!”

“I’m afraid it’s not just that, is it?”

Liu Sisi’s gaze casually drifted over the other woman, the mocking in her eyes carrying a deeper meaning.

Which only served to make the other woman’s face turn a deep shade of red with anger!

“I only found out today that you, Liu Sisi, had such a sharp tongue!”

“That depends on who I’m speaking to!” Liu Sisi was not willing to show any weakness.

“…”

The other party was speechless, choking on their words.

Only after a while did they speak again, “Liu Sisi, don’t forget your identity! Have you really not seen your own heritage even now?”

“My heritage?”

Liu Sisi sized up her counterpart from head to toe several times, her gaze filled with disdain, “You’re not here today to tell me that the current Emperor is not my biological father, are you?”

As a modern person, she actually didn’t care about the real identity of the original host as much as people thought. After all, no matter who her biological father was, it didn’t have much to do with her.

The funny thing is, you can’t avoid these matters by simply not wanting to deal with them!

No matter how you try to escape, they still entangle you just the same.

“You got it right! I am indeed here for your heritage. When you were brought back to Heilong Mountain, you were already eight months old and could even call out to people. However, your mother only left with you for little over a year. Consider for yourself, who your real father might be?”

Liu Sisi remained completely unmoved, “Don’t say I don’t have any memory of what you’re talking about. Even if what you’re saying is indeed true, so what?”

“Your father is the former Crown Prince Zhao Dun. Your parents were very much in love back then. Your mother always called the former Crown Prince ‘Brother Rui,’ while he called her ‘Xin’er.’ They were living a good life until Cheng Yaojin came out of nowhere and forcefully tore them apart. Have you never wondered why Zhao Wu, knowing full well you are the daughter of his enemy, would rush to acknowledge you as his daughter?”

Liu Sisi looked at the other party with a cold face for a while.

That look, as if she were staring at a monster, made the woman’s scalp tingle, “What, you don’t believe what I’m telling you?”

Liu Sisi shook her head, “It’s not about believing or not. Let me tell you, are you not a case of a ‘dog trying to catch mice’—meddling in others’ affairs? Even if all of this is true, what benefit does telling me bring to you?”

No one does anything without a reason! She didn’t believe the other person was simply kind-hearted.

Caught off guard by Liu Sisi’s question, the woman hesitated for a moment and then stamped her foot with force!

“Even if you don’t want to know, I still insist on telling you! Zhao Wu rushed to acknowledge you as his daughter because of who your mother was. Your mother’s identity is extraordinary; the reason Zhao Wu didn’t mind wearing the cuckold’s hat and acknowledging you is all because of her!”

“You better not tell me that my mother is the Princess of Xixia Country. I’ve known these details for a long time.”

While speaking, Liu Sisi stood up and walked two steps toward the woman, letting out a light chuckle.

“Actually, I’m not really interested in all that. What’s more interesting to me is, who exactly are you? How did you come to know these things? What is your purpose in telling me all this? Of course, if you could disclose all this to me, I wouldn’t mind listening to your story. Otherwise, you can go back where you came from and stop wasting each other’s time.”

Having finished, Liu Sisi turned and walked to another bed, lying down and squinting her eyes.

“This is not a story, these are facts! Liu Sisi, get up!”

Her attitude clearly frustrated the other party!

Moving forward two steps trying to get close to Liu Sisi, she was blocked by Xue Yi. With no other choice, she bit her lip, “Fine! You want to know who I am? Watch carefully, then!”

As she spoke, her veil also fell to the ground, revealing a face familiar to Liu Sisi.

Liu Sisi got up and, looking at that beautiful face, was almost at a loss for words, “It’s actually you!”
