Nan Muze's heart was bitter.
The mood is always heavy.
Just when he closed his eyes and planned to rest, Xiao Jiang's voice came from outside the door.
"Master, everything has been checked."
Nan Muze opened his eyes and said, "Say."
Xiao Jiang outside the door said respectfully: "There are indeed five princes and one princess in the Li Kingdom, but that princess is always there. Her name is Du Qianyi. It is not like what they said. She gave away the little princess since she was a child. Come to our side, even if it is true, the empress should not be their only princess, there is something fishy about this matter."
Nan Muze got out of bed lightly, finally opened the door and walked out.
"Go and invite the second prince to me."
Xiao Jiang was startled, "Now?"
It's late at night, everyone must be asleep...
But Nan Muze just said coldly: "Now, since I have doubts, I should ask him personally."
"..."
It took a while for Xiao Jiang to invite the people over.
It was already midnight, and Du Baili was obviously still awake. Being invited to Prince Cang's mansion in the middle of the night, he thought something important had happened.
He hurried to the study room, but Nan Muze just leaned on the table and stared at him casually.
"I heard that your princess has always been here, so why does my beloved concubine become your only princess?"
It turned out to be this.
Du Baili was a little helpless, because of this incident, he woke up from his deep sleep!
This Cang King is really not ordinary strange.
But he did not show anger, but explained very politely: "Yes, we already have a princess in Liguo."
After a pause, he explained: "But she is not the flesh and blood of my father and mother. It was only in the past two years that we brothers learned about this."
Nan Muze narrowed his eyes, "What do you mean?"
"I have said more than once that my mother gave birth to five sons and finally gave birth to a daughter. She loved that daughter very, very much, and even the father also liked the daughter very much. But it happened that your queen mother was yours. Mother, the five princes did not choose, so they chose their favorite daughter to take away..."
Du Baili explained very seriously and said:
"Perhaps everyone can see their love for that little daughter, so they chose her as a hostage. This is your mother's clever method, but it also indirectly shows how much my father and mother care about their daughter Shengsheng. It is precisely because they care that they go to great lengths to protect Shengsheng."
"The existence of Shengsheng is the main reason why the two countries can always live in peace. General Liu even did not hesitate to give her the title and status of his legitimate daughter. Your queen mother did not hesitate to let you get engaged to her early. Even my queen mother also I have come to your Fengqing country quietly several times, traveling over mountains and ridges just to see her secretly."
"It is precisely because of this care that my mother secretly adopted a daughter. She once told me that she did not adopt a daughter because she missed her daughter so much. She was just afraid that others would know that she was her biological daughter. In your country, it would bring trouble to her own daughter, so she adopted a woman to hide her from others.”
Nan Muze stared at him, "In other words, that princess is just a fake?"
Du Baili nodded, "That's understandable, but over the years, she has indeed been trained as a real princess..."
"Oh, from what you say, she is also a real princess in your heart?"
Du Baili was obviously stunned by Nan Muze's question.
But he quickly came to his senses and said: "For at least ten years, the five of us brothers have thought that she was our biological sister. It was only in the past two years that we learned the truth..."
"So you mean, she is also your sister in your heart?"
Du Baili said politely: "I regard her as my biological sister, and I want to take Shengsheng, my biological sister back, there will be no conflict, right?"
After a pause, he added: "If
His Highness Prince Cang was worried that Sheng Sheng would not be taken seriously after returning, but there was no need to do so. "
"Although we brothers only found out about this in recent years, our father, emperor and mother have always known about it. Over the years, they have been particularly cold towards our sister, and they don't think they have much affection for her."
"In their hearts, what they miss most is Sheng Sheng, their biological daughter. Therefore, even if we brothers don't have deep feelings for Sheng Sheng, the father, the queen and the queen will do their best to protect Sheng Sheng and let Sheng Sheng live. Have a happy and joyful day."
Du Baili explained very patiently and said, "Also, our sister is very well-behaved and sensible. She won't compete with Shengsheng."
After hearing so much, Nan Muze felt a little sleepy.
He asked lazily, "What do you mean, after you take Sheng Sheng back, you don't plan to drive that impostor out of the palace?"
Du Baili said politely: "Your Highness, Prince Cang, please don't joke. Our sister has been a princess for more than ten years. If we suddenly drive her out of the palace, she will probably starve to death on the streets, so..."
"So why do you think that this king will let Shengsheng go back with you and suffer injustice?"
Du Baili said with some embarrassment: "His Royal Highness, Prince Cang, is serious. All of us are looking forward to Shengsheng very much, so how can we be willing to let her suffer?"
Nan Muze sneered and said word by word:
"When she didn't understand anything, she was thrown into another country, just to exchange for the peace of the two countries. But the peace of the two countries, what does it have to do with her as a little girl? Even in all these years, you have never mentioned it She didn't even tell her about this matter, which made her deeply believe that she was the legitimate daughter of the General's Palace, a legitimate daughter who was not loved by the General's Palace."
"What you mean by being good to her and doing your best to protect her is to let the person who adopted her unconditionally indulge her and pamper her. Instead of teaching her the truth, you just pampered her into a lawless and arrogant young lady and let her She thinks that although she is a legitimate daughter, she is always not as well-received as a concubine, which makes her feel aggrieved that her father is particularly partial to her. From childhood to adulthood, she would rather trust a concubine than believe her."
"If you had told her earlier that she was not his biological daughter, she wouldn't have been secretly uncomfortable for so long."
"Now, you keep saying that you want to take her back, but you still want to keep an impostor in the palace. Then what is she going to do? Go back and see that the happiness that should have been hers is all enjoyed by another woman?"
Du Baili couldn't respond to these words and could only stand there with a slight embarrassment.
Then I heard Nan Muze say casually:
"However, I do understand you. After all, it has been more than ten years. A dog will have feelings for more than ten years, let alone a human being."
