Qiuyue was afraid that Xia Luotong and Xia Zhihe had been doing well over the years, so she asked this question.
Xia Luotong sneered and said something selectively. He didn't go into too much detail, but it was enough to make Qiuyue stamp her feet in anger.
Prince Inuo was listening. Although Xia Luotong did not explain in detail, he knew a lot of the real situation.
During these days, the people under him were investigating day and night, and a large amount of information was sent to him, which made him feel sorry for Xia Luotong, and his heart ached.
Without the protection of his mother, he had to depend on the wet nurse who was always crazy and awake since he was a child. Life was extremely difficult, and the wet nurse was just a servant after all. It was his best to keep Xia Luotong from starving to death.
Coupled with what the Xia family did...
At this time, Prince Inuo had basically confirmed Xia Luotong's identity as his cousin! The only bloodline of Imperial Aunt Luo Yue!
But the Imperial Grandmother and the Imperial Aunt have been dead for so many years...
Prince Ino's heart was extremely heavy at this time. The news had to be spread back to Gudan Kingdom first. He couldn't make the decision.
Just thinking about his grandfather and father who had been waiting for more than twenty years, he felt uncomfortable but also a little worried.
The emperor's father is fine, but the emperor's grandfather is not in good health. If the news of the death of his wife and daughter gets back...
Thinking of this, he looked up at Xia Luotong again. Looking at Xia Luotong's face that was very similar to his father and even his grandmother, he suddenly had a suspicion in his heart.
He had never met the imperial grandmother in person, but he had seen her portrait. It was said that his father's appearance was greatly inherited from his grandmother, and Xia Luotong's appearance was similar to his father's.
Therefore, he felt that if the imperial grandfather knew of Xia Luotong's existence and saw Xia Luotong's appearance, the pain might be slightly alleviated, at least he would not collapse too much.
As for whether Xia Luotong's identity was true, Prince Ino really didn't have much doubt. In fact, he had already identified Xia Luotong's identity from the first time he saw Xia Luotong.
The investigation during this period was just to confirm his own thoughts, and also to make Xia Luotong believe this matter.
According to what the maid Qiuyue said, Prince Inuo recalled the time when Xia Luotong was born. The Gudan Kingdom was indeed at the time of quelling the civil strife. No wonder Qiuyue could not find the person mentioned by the emperor's aunt Luo Yue.
That was the general of the Gudan Kingdom guarding the border with the Great Zhou Dynasty. He was the confidant general of the emperor's grandfather, so the emperor's aunt asked Qiu Yue to find it. After all, it was not easy for Qiu Yue, a commoner from a foreign country, to send a letter to the palace.
Unfortunately, during that time, the general happened to be captured by the rebels and was not rescued until the war subsided, so the message delivery was missed.
If the letter could have been delivered at that time, then the emperor's grandfather and father would have taken Xia Luotong back to the Gudan Kingdom no matter what, and they would not have lived in such hardship these past years, and they would not have been almost killed by their stepmother Li.
Prince Inuo looked at Xia Luotong who was talking to Qiuyue, and his excitement couldn't calm down for a long time. It wasn't until the two of them finished reminiscing about the past that he couldn't help but call out softly.
"cousin……"
When the voice came out, Xia Luotong froze slightly. He didn't know how to face it. After all, real family members suddenly appeared, and he was somewhat at a loss what to do.
Qiuyue was shocked and blurted out subconsciously: "Master Yi, why did you call me young lady?"
"Cousin, she is my cousin. The young lady you are talking about is my aunt." Although Prince Ino answered Qiuyue's question, he looked at Xia Luotong with stern eyes, full of excitement and caution.
He kept holding back because he could guess and understand Xia Luotong's reaction. After all, Xia Luotong originally thought that there was no one in her family, but suddenly there was such a turn.
"Are you sure you didn't admit your mistake?" Qiuyue couldn't help but confirm again.
In fact, she could tell that Mr. Yi had an extraordinary status, even her own young lady looked not ordinary, but this fact was too surprising.
Qiuyue couldn't help but take a few more glances at Mr. Yi's appearance, and her suspicions in her heart were a little lessened. Although the appearance of this foreigner made it somewhat difficult for her to distinguish, she had served the young lady for many years, so she naturally knew that the young lady His appearance is closer to that of Mr. Yi.
Prince Ino didn't mind Qiuyue's question and affirmed: "I'm sure I'm not wrong! I've seen the emperor... I've seen the portrait of my grandmother. My cousin looks like my grandmother in five points, but more of her father."
Hearing what Prince Ino said, Qiuyue became more and more convinced: "I didn't expect that the little lady actually found her parents' family! That's great, little lady!"
Qiuyue is very happy for Xia Luotong. After all, people like the Xia family are not worthy of being called relatives at all. However, both the madam and the young lady have passed away. Now they are reunited with their parents' family again and have relatives again. Qiuyue looks even Even happier than Xia Luotong.
At this time, Xia Luotong still had a hesitant look on his face, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It was so sudden that he had his mother's family again...
In fact, there is some happiness, but more of it is confusion.
The truth about her life experience that she had been looking for suddenly came to light. Even she found it difficult to accept it immediately. She was not mentally prepared yet...
Prince Inuo saw Xia Luotong's confusion. Although he was excited, he did not rush her. Instead, he looked at her gently and asked softly: "But what other worries and doubts are there?"
"I'm just a little... not ready." Xia Luotong said a little embarrassed, and then asked, "Do you want to send a message back to ask and confirm?"
In fact, she wanted Prince Ino to ask the King of Gudan Kingdom if he recognized her as his niece.
After all, her mother married a Zhou Dynasty man while losing her memory, and she had her. Xia Luotong was really not sure whether the royal family of the Gudan Kingdom would recognize her identity.
Seeing Xia Luotong's hesitation and uneasiness, Prince Inuo thought for a while, turned to Qiuyue and said, "I wonder if it would be convenient for me to chat with her in private for a while."
Qiuyue was stunned, then turned to look at Xia Luotong, obviously wanting to listen to Xia Luotong's wishes. Seeing Xia Luotong nodded, Qiuyue got up and left the house, closed the door and left a message for the people in the house. Private space.
Wu Zechen did not leave, and there were only three of them left in the room at this time. Prince Ino didn't mind Wu Zechen's presence.
When he spoke again, he was talking about the content of the letter: "The emperor's aunt has already explained the situation at that time in the letter, so I can confirm her identity, as well as the identity of the emperor's grandmother and cousin."
"At that time, the imperial grandmother and the imperial aunt were assassinated not long after entering the customs. Two groups of people appeared one after another. In the end, the escort team was defeated and the two of them fell off the cliff. Only then were they rescued by the head of the Sun family."
