"Descendant of the previous royal family..." The queen never expected that his Natsuro would have this identity. What exactly does he want to do?
"Haha, he still wants to restore his country."
The queen's eyes flashed slightly, "I am willing to serve the emperor."
The emperor smiled, "Okay, very good!"
That's what seemed to happen. After she gave birth to a child, the emperor exchanged the one born in Furong Hall with the child she gave birth to, who was also a son. She didn't know where the emperor had sent her son, but she knew it must be a disaster. Although she felt distressed, she could no longer take care of that much. Perhaps, she is such a woman who is greedy for life and afraid of death.
Things went smoothly after that. He raised the prince, established him as prince, and then ascended the throne as emperor. The queen is still a queen, and she is still entangled with her Natsuro, but how sincere they are, haha, maybe only they themselves know.
Later, the emperor died, and the queen thought that she could finally relax and become the real master of the harem and the queen mother.
What I didn't expect was that the emperor actually explained all the ins and outs of the matter to the emperor, down to the smallest detail.
Since then, the emperor has changed, becoming suspicious and irritable. But she still maintains a good appearance and respects her as a mother. Only she knew that it was different.
When the Queen Mother looked at the emperor's leaving figure, he looked more and more like the late emperor, even in his personality, which made her more and more frightened.

In a separate courtyard in the northern region, Xiao Han had just finished practicing and washing up, when Xiao Yi came over with a letter.
Xiao Han didn't say anything. After receiving the letter, he saw that one was from Su Yu and the other was from Su Yue. Su Yu urged him to return to the border as soon as possible, while Su Yue asked him where he had been, why he hadn't seen her for so long, and when he would go back.
Xiao Han raised the corners of his lips and said, hurry up and go back soon.
When Xiao saw his master's expression, he didn't dare to disturb him. A letter from the princess has arrived, and the master should be in a better mood.
"Is there anything else?" Sensing Xiao Yi's gaze, Xiao Han folded Su Yue's letter like a treasure and put it in his arms.
"Oh, that man went to see the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother seemed very nervous, and then he met the Emperor."
"What did you say?"
"There are many experts secretly guarding outside the palace, but our people did not dare to step forward to avoid being exposed."
Xiao Han nodded, "It's better to be cautious, keep a close eye, and don't make any mistakes. By the way, has the whereabouts of the Queen Mother's child been found?"
Xiao Yi looked a little uncomfortable.
"What's wrong?"
"After a little effort, I found some clues, but..." Xiao Yi was a little embarrassed.
"explain."
"Yes. It is said that the late emperor secretly sent a teenage eunuch to serve in the Queen Mother's chamber more than ten years ago. The little eunuch was timid and clumsy. He was beaten and scolded a lot at the beginning. But he grew up. Yes, he was pretty, and he was loved by... well, some old eunuchs, so he was protected by some people and lived for two years. The late emperor didn't care at all, and seemed to just send him away secretly. Later, The young eunuch accidentally broke the Queen Mother's favorite vase, so he was punished and his leg was broken. There was no medical doctor to treat it, and it kept dragging him. The old eunuchs had a new plaything, so they naturally threw him away. The back of his head was gone, and no one cared about it, so he died in a small room. It is said that after his death, the late emperor took a look and even sat in the room for a long time, not knowing what he was doing."
Xiao Han's eyes were cold, "Do you suspect that the little eunuch is the Queen Mother's child?"
"Yes. Firstly, because they are similar in age, and secondly, because his appearance is actually somewhat similar to that of the Queen Mother. It is precisely because of this that he was given to so many old eunuchs with ulterior motives... Of course, the most important thing It’s still the late emperor’s attitude, very subtle.”
Xiao Yi thought, if all this is true, then what kind of pervert was the late emperor of the Northern Territory? Not only did he allow his queen to commit adultery with others, but he also used this opportunity to take advantage of the other party's power and push his own son to the top step by step. Still want to use the other party's power to unify the continent? This little eunuch... How would the queen mother and that man feel if they knew that their son died so miserably and suffered so many inhuman treatments?
Such a royal family is really extremely dirty.
Xiao Han didn't speak anymore, and tapped his hand gently on the table, very regularly.
Xiao Yi didn't bother him. This was the master's habit. He would do this when he was thinking.
Soon, "find a way to deliver the news to the Queen Mother."
"yes."
"Be more discreet."
"yes."
After Xiao Yi left, Xiao Han began to write a reply to Su Yue. After being busy these days, I have neglected her. This girl should be angry. After writing the letter, he put a newly carved jade pendant into the envelope. The angry girl still had to be coaxed.
"Someone is coming."
Xiao Shisan immediately appeared in the house, "Master."
"Send it out as soon as possible."
"yes."

At this moment, in a side hall of the Northern Palace, the descendant of the dynasty was writing something on the desk.
A man in black appeared quietly in the hall. The old man didn't even raise his head and said, "Say."
"After you left, the Queen Mother called the emperor over. The two talked for a long time in the palace, but our people could not find out what they were talking about."
The old man was not surprised and stopped writing, "I actually let him grow to such an extent under my nose. If...hehe, he really should be cut into pieces."
The man in black lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
"How was the investigation about the old palace maid and the midwife? How did they enter the capital, and how were they discovered by you?"
"My subordinates went to investigate, and it was indeed a coincidence. The old palace maid had no children, and she had spent almost all her money when she was old. She wanted to come back to find her old sisters who were in the palace together, and then she mentioned what happened back then. , this old sister is a smart person, so she wanted to make a fuss about this matter and wanted some money, but was intercepted by our people. And the midwife, who lived nearby, kicked her out of the house because her son and daughter-in-law were unfilial. She We came here wandering and begging. Some of them were crazy, talking nonsense on the street, and were brought back by our people."
Everything seems to be a coincidence, but how can there be so many coincidences in the world.
The old man's eyes were sinister, "Continue to investigate, I don't believe in coincidences. I would like to know who dares to make small moves under my nose to stir up the situation."
"yes."
"Also, the forces that sent us out to assist the emperor should be slowly brought back."
"This..." The man in black hesitated.
"is there a problem?"
"No, it has been so many years. If I suddenly take it back like this, will it arouse the emperor's suspicion?"
"Then think of a way to do things perfectly so as not to make people suspicious. Or, take it one step at a time and don't attract the other person's attention for the time being. We'll talk about it later..."
