Marrying into a rich family by mistake, it is difficult to be a mistress

Chapter 536: So close, yet so unrecognizable

Not long after, Mianzhu brought Xier to Chao Sihai.

"Eunuch Chao, this is Xier. She was in the same variety show troupe as Chunsheng. Chunsheng's master was also her master. He should know where her master is from." Ji Chuhe introduced to Eunuch Chao.

Chao Gonggong was very excited, but he couldn't help feeling a little homesick.

Ji Chuhe noticed Eunuch Chao's hesitation and felt that this matter must be very important to him, so he did not take the initiative to ask Xier.

After calming down, Chao Gonggong seemed to have made some important decision, and finally couldn't help but ask.

"Miss Xier, do you know where your master is from?"

"My dear father-in-law, my master is from Fengxian County. My brother Chunsheng and I are both from Fengxian County." Xier replied softly.

"Really? Are you sure you and Chunsheng are both from Fengxian County?"

"I'm sure, because my master has told us more than once the origins of each of us."

"Then do you know the origins of Brother Chunsheng?"

"I know. Master said that he found Brother Chunsheng in a stable. At that time, Brother Chunsheng was still a baby in swaddling clothes. When he found Brother Chunsheng, Brother Chunsheng was only breathing his last breath and almost died. Later, he finally found a doctor to save Brother Chunsheng."

Chao Sihai became more and more excited. He took a step forward, held Xier's shoulders, and asked in a trembling voice: "Did your master tell you whether there was anything on Brother Chunsheng's body when he found him?"

"Yes, a jade pendant." Xier said confidently, "Master often told us about Brother Chunsheng's life experience. Brother Chunsheng is not like us. He may not be an orphan, because the cloth used to swaddle Brother Chunsheng was very good, which is not something that children from ordinary families can afford. He also has a jade pendant on him, so he must have been separated from his family during the war."

Chao Sihai could no longer control his emotions.

Right, all right!

However, he did not dare to recognize Chunsheng rashly.

God has eyes!

His son is still alive and well in this world!

"Eunuch Chao, later on, my master fell seriously ill, so Brother Chunsheng sold the jade pendant to buy medicine for the master, but the master still couldn't be cured and died not long after. Brother Chunsheng sold himself to bury the master, and raised us in a dilapidated temple. He used all his salary at the county magistrate's office to support us. Fortunately, we met the lady later, and Chunsheng asked the lady to take in all of us in the variety show troupe." Xier continued.

Even without the jade pendant, Eunuch Chao could be sure that Chunsheng was his son.

He had never felt this way about anyone in all these years.

In particular, Chunsheng’s eyebrows and eyes are so similar to his wife who died in grievance!

Chao Sihai turned around and looked at Ji Chuhe, "Madam is kind-hearted and will surely bring you endless blessings."

"Xier, you guys can leave first." Ji Chuhe asked everyone to leave.

She and Chao Sihai were the only ones left in the room.

"Eunuch Chao, please sit down and talk."

"Oh." Chao Sihai responded and sat on a chair beside him.

He was so emotional that he couldn't help crying. He raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and without waiting for Ji Chuhe to ask, he took the initiative to speak.

"Madam, please forgive me for my loss of composure. In fact, I was not a eunuch who entered the palace when I was young. I followed the emperor into the palace after he ascended the throne. My real name is not Chao Sihai. Chao Sihai is the new name I took after entering the palace."

In his previous life, Ji Chuhe didn’t know about Chao Sihai’s life experience.

Unexpectedly, Chao Sihai had such a story.

Through Chao Sihai's reaction just now and what Chao Sihai just said, Ji Chuhe has guessed something.

"I was disabled in a war. Actually, I have a family, a beautiful and virtuous wife, and a son who was born not long ago."

"At that time, I was blinded by fame and fortune. In that chaotic time, for the sake of my own future, I left my wife and children at home. In the end, my wife met with an accident and my children disappeared. Not only did I not get the future I wanted, but I became a useless person."

"Over the years, I have been repenting. I have lost my wife and only prayed to God to return my son to me. I had already given up and thought my son was dead, but I didn't expect that God would reward those who work hard and find my son! Madam, Chunsheng is my son!" Chao Sihai said excitedly.

"Eunuch Chao, I understand your feelings very well, but you have to be cautious about things like recognizing relatives. After all, Xier is still young and may not remember some things accurately. Do you want me to call Chunsheng over so that you can have a talk with him in person?"

Chao Gonggong immediately waved his hand, "No, no, Madam, I don't want to make this public for the time being. Please keep it a secret for me, Madam."

"Okay." Ji Chuhe agreed softly.

"Madam, I understand your concerns. I trust my instincts very much and will not mistake someone for someone else!"

"Eunuch Chao, since you are so determined, I believe in your intuition. You have been looking for Chunsheng for so many years, and finally the father and son meet. Why don't you recognize him?"

"If I were a normal person, even if I didn't hold a high position or receive a high salary, but was just an ordinary citizen, I would not be afraid to recognize him. However, with my current identity, it is really..." Chao Sihai couldn't continue.

"Eunuch Chao, I believe that Chunsheng will not have any thoughts about your current identity. He will only be glad that his father is still alive in this world. Moreover, his father has been looking for him and cares about him so much."

When Chao Sihai heard these words, tears began to flow uncontrollably.

"Eunuch Ming, I chose Chunsheng because he is kind-hearted. He was able to sell himself to bury his master, and use his monthly salary to support so many people in the amusement troupe. At such a young age, he is so responsible. How bad can such a person be? Now, he can even stand on his own."

Chao Sihai nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

Who doesn't like to hear their child being praised?

"Chun Sheng can be what he is today thanks to the cultivation of the Crown Prince's wife." Chao Sihai suddenly stood up and knelt down towards Ji Chuhe.

"Eunuch Chao, what are you doing? I can't bear it! Please get up quickly."

Chao Sihai was the chief eunuch of the palace and the emperor's personal eunuch. He always knelt only before the emperor, the empress and the queen mother. Ji Chuhe really could not bear Chao Sihai's kneeling.
