Song Wanqing began to feel restless. If Song Qingshan was really not her biological father, it would explain why Song Qingshan was so different from Song Zhiqiu, who were both daughters.
But neither Shen Yue nor Chen Qinglian mentioned a word about this matter.
Soon, Biyun came.
"I've met the concubine, I've met the young lady."
"Aunt Yun," Song Wanqing stepped forward, "I want to confirm something with you. Was my mother pregnant before she married my father?"
"I don't dare to talk nonsense about this." Biyun shook her head, "But you were born in August, so you should be born prematurely, but you look very healthy, and the midwife said you should be full term."
She twitched her lips and said, "Your mother didn't explain anything at the time, so I thought the young lady had raised her well by herself."
"Then when my mother was still at her parents' home, did she have much contact with my father?" Song Wanqing asked eagerly.
Biyun shook her head, "Little miss, I told you before that when the miss suddenly proposed to marry the Marquis of Ding'an, not only me, but also your grandfather was shocked."
She turned to look at the old concubine, "The concubine should also know that before that, the young lady had no contact with the Marquis of Ding'an, at least we didn't see it."
"Then which two men does my mother associate with more often?" Song Wanqing couldn't help but become nervous.
Biyun thought for a while and then slowly spoke, "I can't say that there were many contacts. After all, this is related to the reputation of my daughter's family. I can only say that I only met General Mu and Wu Shilang at that time."
She continued to explain, "General Mu is no longer here, Wu Shilang..."
"That's the current Left Chancellor Wu Ming." Song Wanqing continued. She didn't expect that she would have to deal with the Wu family again in her next life.
She understood that if Song Qingshan was not her biological father, then the dead General Mu and Wu Ming were the most likely ones.
If all this is true, then why did Shen Yue marry Song Qingshan while she was pregnant with her?
"Actually, the person who knows these things best is Chen Qinglian." Biyun spoke again, "Young lady, you also know that your mother was closest to Chen Qinglian back then, but unfortunately... Chen Qinglian is dead."
Song Wanqing twitched her lips, "Even if she is not dead, she has no intention of mentioning this matter."
She believed that there must be some secret in it.
"Actually, there should be another person who knows about this." Xiao Jiuan said calmly from the side.
Song Wanqing instantly understood who he was talking about, "Song Qingshan!"
"It seems that I have to go back." Although Song Qingshan has not mentioned a word about this matter for so many years, she still has to go back to find out more.
On the way back, Xiao Jiuan said calmly, "If you need help, I can..."
"No." Song Wanqing declined directly, "Ninth Prince, Prince Zhan's Mansion has already helped me a lot, I can investigate this matter myself."
"Whatever." Xiao Jiuan closed his eyes and rested.
After coming down the mountain, Song Wanqing returned to Ding'an Hou Mansion immediately. She did not expect that Song Zhiqiu was also there.
This was the first time the two met after Chen Qinglian died.
Song Wanqing could clearly feel the hatred in Song Zhiqiu's eyes, and silently stared at her for being mean and abusive. However, she didn't expect that Song Zhiqiu's eyes changed and the hatred in his eyes quickly dissipated.
"Sister, you're back." Song Zhiqiu even greeted her cheerfully.
"I've met Princess Chu!" Song Wanqing nodded slightly, "I'll come back to pick up some leftover things and leave soon."
Song Zhiqiu looked back at the huge Ding'an Hou Mansion, "Mom... the person you hate is no longer here. You can move back at any time. My father is old and he still needs people to take care of him."
Song Wanqing was even more surprised. After not seeing him for many days, Song Zhiqiu was completely transformed.
"Forget it, my father and I have always been at odds. If we meet more, we will only quarrel." She looked at Song Zhiqiu with a smile, "Besides, with Princess Chu's filial piety, my father will not be lonely."
"Eldest sister, if you don't want to come back, I won't force you." Song Zhiqiu twitched the corner of his mouth, and a chill appeared in his eyes again, "However, there is something I want to remind eldest sister."
Song Wanqing raised her eyebrows, waiting for her to continue.
"No matter what elder sister chooses or does, you must remember," Song Zhiqiu said coldly, "Sooner or later, you will have to pay the price for what you have done!"
After she said that, she turned around and left with the people.
"Of course." Song Wanqing's voice sounded behind her, "It's not just me, it's the same for you and your mother."
Song Zhiqiu paused and gritted his teeth with hatred, but in the end he did not stop and say anything more.
She hated Song Wanqing to death, but the most important thing to her now was to help Xiao Yi ascend to power. As long as Xiao Yi entered the East Palace, it would be easy to kill Song Wanqing.
"Miss," Chen Yu said in disappointment when he saw the person walking away, "Second Miss's face has healed."
Song Wanqing continued to the main courtyard. It was not surprising that Song Zhiqiu's face had improved, but her sudden change in temperament surprised her.
It seemed that Chen Qinglian's death had a great impact on Song Zhiqiu.
After entering the main courtyard, Song Wanqing was stopped by someone, "Miss, please wait outside while the younger one goes in and announces."
Soon, the sound of smashing things and Song Qingshan's swearing came from inside.
"Does she still have the nerve to come back? Doesn't she disown this family?"
"Tell her to go away, I don't want to see her! Gone!"
The boy who delivered the message came back and said, "Miss, you heard me too. The Marquis is in a bad mood right now and doesn't want to see you."
Song Wanqing took out a broken piece of silver and handed it over, "If you pass one more sentence to me, father will change his mind."
"Okay, this is the last time." The boy struggled for a moment, but still took the money, "Tell me, Miss, what do you want to say?"
Song Wanqing curled her lips and said, "Just say that the eldest lady realizes her mistake and wants to hand over several shops to my father to manage."
"Come on, the eldest lady is a sensible person." The young man's eyes lit up and he turned around and went in.
Sure enough, Song Wanqing met Song Qingshan soon.
Song Qingshan looks much older after not seeing him for many days. It seems that Chen Qinglian's death and some recent events have also hit him hard.
He looked at Song Wanqing coldly with a sullen face, "Unfilial daughter, how dare you come back? Why do you have the nerve to come back?"
"What are you saying, father?" Song Wanqing said in a tone of emotionless tone, "No matter what, this is Qing'er's home. How could Qing'er not come back?"
"This is your home?" Song Qingshan stood up, pointed at Song Wanqing and cursed, "Do you still call this place your home?"
"Father was joking." Song Wanqing shrugged, "Of course this is my home. When father is gone, I will still be the first heir."
"What did you say?" Song Qingshan's eyes widened in disbelief, "Get out of here! Get out of here now!"
