Underneath the seemingly harmonious and beautiful world is the deepest despair and silence. This is a truth that a person who has grown from a girl to a young woman to a woman and finally a mother can only understand after several years.

The girl grew up in the Duke's Palace since she was a child, and her status and treatment were not bad. She even had frequent contact with young masters of the same age.

Because her father is a retainer of the duke, a retainer who has a high status in front of the lord, and a relatively rare soul master with spiritual attributes.

As for his cultivation level, it doesn't matter, because the way he died was neither honorable nor spiritual.

A soul master who failed in the political struggle and took on the responsibility of his master.

This method of death definitely has no good reputation among outsiders, and the girl was also affected. However, the Duke's Palace did not treat the girl badly. Not only did everything remain the same, it even made her the young master's personal maid.

If you can't even take care of the orphans of your retainers, then you don't have to support your retainers.

The girl also understood the reason for her sudden rise in status - because her father was dead, and because soul masters with spiritual attributes were rare.

She is the only possible spiritual attribute soul master in the Duke's Palace. The role of a spiritual attribute soul master in the political field is far greater than that in the arena and in the arena.

From the daughter of a retainer to a maid, it seems that the status has dropped, but for the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, it depends on the prefix and who is the maid.

Not everyone can be this maid, she is clean and can be trusted...

What is more trustworthy than the daughter of a retainer?

The girl was not dissatisfied with this arrangement, she was even happy, and she had no objection to what happened to her father.

This is the principle of eating the emperor's salary, being loyal to the emperor, and worrying about the emperor.

With everyone paying attention, she awakened her martial spirit.

But she has no innate soul power.

This is not a rare thing. The descendants of soul masters are not necessarily soul masters, but disappointment is always inevitable.

I can't do it as a personal maid.

The girl thought so at the time.

Sad, confused...

There were negative emotions, but most of them were due to the lack of innate soul power. As a personal maid, the girl didn't really care about it at the time.

It is possible for the Duke's mansion to support an ordinary person.

But the young master she served refused to change her personal maid. As a young man, he always likes people who have more acquaintances.

He even went to live with his political opponents for a period of time to show his determination.

The girl in the study was very moved.

She likes to read books, any kind of books, epics, operas, or popular popular novels on the market... She really likes the stories in the books, the charging knights, the lovers kissing before the avalanche, the dead seniors...

She loves reading these stories because she knows they are false.

But she didn't expect that the plot in the book could actually appear in reality.

The young master came back and brought another girl, a little princess from a political enemy's family. There seemed to be signs of reconciliation between the two families.

The girl felt a little sour in her heart, but she still smiled because she was a maid.

Time passed by, and the young master became the lord and inherited the duke.

The girl became a girl, and finally a woman, on a rainy night.

There is nothing surprising. The profession of personal maid has been a predetermined relationship since childhood. The master will not be at ease if he actually gets married.

Not to mention that they are already better than family members.

Then she became a mother, and the girl the lord brought back also became a mother, even earlier than her and with a higher status than her.

The Duke was very happy holding the child.

Political enemies are political enemies after all, not to mention that the two families are more than just political enemies. The struggle between them has lasted for thousands of years.

In other words, for a mother with a higher status than her, there is a risk that her child will inherit the title of duke.

The Duke thought so too, so her child became the Duke's hope.

She didn't even care that her child was a girl and raised her as a boy.

The Duke didn't really expect the girl raised as a boy to inherit the title, it was just a political ploy.

Just looking at the happy Duke, my mother suddenly felt a trace of unbearability and dissatisfaction in her heart.

But she didn't show it, she was just a maid.

The Duke was very unhappy, and his face looked uncertain.

Because the child he has high hopes for is almost two years old, but the child's hair color is getting weirder and weirder.

Finally, he couldn't help but take his child to the elders of the clan to test his bloodline.

Good news, this is the child’s mother’s bloodline;

Bad news, it has nothing to do with him.

So the Duke became angry. This was something that no man could accept. He even thought of something even more terrifying - had the child's mother, his personal maid, betrayed him?

Betrayal in a political sense.

The mother was confused. She really hadn't done anything. She was sure that this was the Duke's child. The time was right and the experience was right.

But the hair color doesn't match, and the bloodline doesn't match.

None of this mattered anymore. Looking at the crying child, she made a decision. As a personal maid, she had control over many things that others could not think of.

She found another woman who was a mother.

Things were successful, but the Duke had to be exiled to the border due to political scandal and the death of a highly respected old man in the family.

Of course, on the surface, I am going to defend my country.

The Duke's Palace became a Duke's Palace for two women.

Then she failed, and the Duke not only survived the fatal battlefield, but also gained great reputation.

He was saved from despair.

The Duke's Palace has a backbone again, although this backbone can only stay at the border.

She had to enter the cold palace, force her former collaborators to the same front, and had to gamble on the Duke's compassion.

But this is still the Duke's Palace, and she can't escape.

She is dying.

"You can take your child outside, there is no need to die in the Duke's Mansion." The fire caused by the bomb not far away shone on the creek. Qianjie's face was complicated, but Huo Yun'er had no special expression.

The old man telling the story had only emotion on his face.

Yes, it was not told by Huo Yun'er, but by the old man across the creek.

According to Huo Yun'er, this is an old man who watched her and Dai Hao grow up, so there should be nothing wrong with them.

To be honest, no one seems to be right in this past episode.

Dai Hao was right, he just wanted to preserve his reputation, and he was the victim from the beginning to the end; Huo Yun'er was right, she just wanted to protect her children, and she really didn't do anything in the beginning, so she took the blame for no reason.

Is the child wrong? What can the child do wrong?

No one is wrong, but it was just a farce. Maybe this is because things in the world are unpredictable.

Just like the Wuhun Palace ten thousand years ago, it is natural for people to kill soul beasts, and there is nothing wrong with it, but they lost inexplicably and became the target of everyone's shouting.

But it doesn’t matter. There are not so many things in the world where right and wrong are clearly defined. It all depends on where the person’s butt is.

Qianjie's butt is now on the Huo mother and daughter's side.

"Take Yuhao to live outside? I think so too. Unfortunately, both from the perspective of children's growth and survival, it is not as safe as the Duke's Palace."

Huo Yun'er's tone did not fluctuate.

Qianjie Dudu is indeed right.

The duchess could be forced to the same front inside the Duke's Palace, but outside the Duke's Palace they were just chasing her casually, and Huo Yun'er didn't have the strength to protect herself and her children;

Not to mention the growth of the child, Dai Yuhao may sound miserable, but when she grows up, she still has food to eat and grilled fish.

There may not necessarily be fish grilled outside. The common people of the Sun and Moon Empire have been guarding the sea for ten thousand years, and none of them have eaten fish more than once in their lives.

On this land, you are extremely lucky to be alive.
