Chapter 305 - 305 304 Generation
?Chapter 305: Chapter 304: Generation Chapter 305: Chapter 304: Generation Chu Lingxuan said that when Princess Rong Zhao proposed this request, claiming that a daughter-in-law was supposed to serve her in-laws, it was only natural. Marquis Chu then went to the Emperor to complain, and Mrs. Chu also went to the Cining Palace to complain to the Empress Dowager.
When Marquis Chu entered the Golden Hall, the morning court session had not yet ended.
The affairs of the royal family indeed were a matter of national concern. When Marquis Chu finished his complaints, the court officials started discussing the issue.
The incident several years ago involving Chu Hanyan had caused an uproar. Many court officials saw the girl, silly and nigh skeletal in appearance. It was wrong enough for the royal family to force a man’s wife away and take him as their own, but now they were mistreating someone’s child – that was even worse. As for the deceased daughter-in-law, it was impossible to investigate after so long, but seeing the child be abused like this brought her death into question. Therefore, the petitions against Princess Rong Zhao flooded in like snowflakes. The Emperor and the Empress Dowager had no defense and had to punish Princess Rong Zhao.
This time, however, Princess Rong Zhao wanted to torment a newlywed bride, which many people couldn’t stand. They argued, even though a stepmother-in-law is still a mother-in-law, the examples of death and foolishness should serve as a warning. The bride shouldn’t endure the same treatment, and so on.
But there were also those who defended Princess Rong Zhao, arguing that the incident involving the young girl was purely accidental, a scheme orchestrated by the lowly servants. Princess Rong Zhao was distraught upon learning the situation and had already punished the guilty servants. A stepmother-in-law is still a mother-in-law, and since Prince Consort Chu is her biological father, it is only right for the daughter-in-law to serve him. It’s a matter of filial piety, and so on.
