Mrs. Xie rolled up the portraits one by one and put them away, put them back in the box and locked them. Then she walked to the window and stood there: "The child that the queen lost back then, I suspect, is His Royal Highness the King of War."
Chu Yunfei was shocked: "Mrs. Xie?"
"Listen to me." Mrs. Xie turned to look at her, her eyes so calm that she was not joking, "I have several reasons, and the three portraits just now are just one of them."
Chu Yunfei suppressed the rolling emotions in her heart and nodded slowly.
"Concubine Gu's attitude towards the King of War these years is suspicious. I always feel that something is not right." Mrs. Xie looked out the window with a cold and indifferent look in her eyes. "In the first few years after losing the child, the queen's mental state was very poor. At that time I often go to the palace to accompany the queen, and I have gone there many times, and I have some understanding of the situation in the palace, and I know that King War is not doing well."
"The Queen has always felt sorry for the Ninth Prince, but she can't interfere too much with the Concubine's child. Every time she mentioned it to me, I always had doubts in my heart. Occasionally, I would quietly take a look at him. The more I looked at him, the more familiar the child's features became. Very, I think he looks a lot like the Queen."
When Chu Yunfei heard this, an idea flashed in her mind. She suddenly thought of the time she went to the Queen's Palace, and inexplicably felt that the Queen's appearance felt familiar...
Is it because Rong Cang has her shadow on his face?
"But if you look carefully, you don't think it is that similar." Mrs. Xie sighed softly, "I was thinking, could it be an illusion caused by a hope in my heart? If the lost child of the Ninth Prince and the Queen was not If I doubt a person rashly, it will lead to bad things."
"But this suspicion has always stuck in my heart. As the Ninth Prince grew up, the opportunities for me to see him gradually became less and less. Every time I came to the palace, he was either studying and practicing martial arts or going to pay respects to the Queen Mother. In short, it was difficult to see him again. Once.”
"I have been secretly watching Concubine Gu all these years. It is a fact that she is not good to the Ninth Prince. That attitude cannot even be interpreted as harsh, nor is it the mentality of a mother who hopes that her son will succeed. It is more like a kind of abuse and venting."
At this point, Mrs. Xie's expression became colder: "I can't figure out the reason for this. Ordinary mothers know that their mothers are kind and their sons are filial, and the concubines in the palace rely on their sons to stabilize their status. Why did Concubine Gu do this?" Are you so harsh on your own children, even disgusting?"
Chu Yunfei listened quietly, her hands hanging by her sides slowly clenched.
Unknowingly, there was a storm in my heart.
If Rong Cang is really the queen's child, then someone had switched the child back then?
who's that person?
Is Concubine Gu the mastermind behind everything? What is her purpose for doing this? Just to make the queen lose her son?
Mrs. Xie turned her head and looked at Chu Yunfei: "I need the princess's help."
Chu Yunfei came back to his senses, with residual shock in his eyes: "Madam, please tell me."
"Children with the blood of the Xie family will mostly have a red mole on their buttocks, as red as blood." Mrs. It is difficult for people to detect the secret signs of a prince who is close to women, so he can only rely on the princess to confirm it."
Chu Yunfei looked slightly startled: "If Rong Cang had this mark on his body, wouldn't Concubine Gu have discovered it back then?"
Mrs. Xie shook her head: "What if she finds out? It's just a mole, and she has no way of knowing that the Xie family has such a mark."
Chu Yunfei nodded clearly.
Yes, in such a private place, most of the time, even the person next to you may not be able to find it. Husband and wife treat each other like guests. Even if they are married at night, a woman is shy and reserved by nature. Who would take the initiative to look at her husband's butt? Let alone outsiders.
After a moment of silence, Chu Yunfei asked calmly: "Does the Queen know about this?"
“She doesn’t know.” Mrs. It gave her hope and another letdown, so she has been secretly investigating over the years.”
But what happened back then was too important, and one was in the palace, the other was outside the palace, and the relevant people were no longer alive. It was not easy to find out the truth.
An idea suddenly flashed in Chu Yunfei's mind, and she suddenly thought of the portrait just now: "Could this be the reason for the death of the second master of the Xie family?"
"I have suspected that too." Mrs. It’s the master’s appearance that brought about the disaster of death.”
Chu Yunfei frowned: "The Xie family is so powerful, but they can't find out the truth?"
Mrs. Xie smiled bitterly: "So it's more doubtful, isn't it?"
Chu Yunfei thought for a while: "If we find Po Wen who delivered the queen's baby back then..."
"All of them have been silenced. There is no one left." Madam Xie looked coldly and smiled sarcastically, "If there was no conspiracy, how could they all be silenced?"
Chu Yunfei was shocked, Wen Po was gone?
The palace's sinister nature is indeed extraordinary.
For those stable women who are good at their crafts and have rich experience, the reward will be huge if they have the opportunity to deliver the queen's baby in this life, or if they have the honor of their life and successfully give birth to the prince.
But since ancient times, misfortunes and blessings have depended on each other.
I thought it was glory, but unexpectedly I couldn't even save my life.
Chu Yunfei tried her best to calm down: "Madam, this matter is not trivial——"
"Don't worry, Princess, only you and I know about this." Mrs. Xie said, "Even Dan Shu doesn't know about it."
Chu Yunfei was quite surprised: "Only Madam knows?"
"Yes." Mrs. Xie nodded.
"Madam, didn't you tell Uncle Guo about this?" Chu Yunfei frowned slightly, "If Uncle Guo knew about it, wouldn't it be easier to find out?"
"I can't say." Mrs. Xie sighed softly, "If he knew the truth, even if he only had a little suspicion, he would definitely send people to carefully search for the truth. If this was a conspiracy, the person who created the conspiracy was very powerful, and it was almost considered a conspiracy. Covering the sky with one hand, investigating it now will only alert the enemy, and I am worried that it will be detrimental to His Highness the King of War."
Chu Yunfei's heart felt cold, and she suddenly realized how naive she was.
The dangers of the palace are like the deep sea with no bottom, and the ruthless methods can be easily seen by ordinary people?
There is nothing that the women in the palace cannot do except what she can't think of.
Thinking of the poison in Rong Cang's body, Chu Yunfei then thought, did those people have the idea of silencing them once the truth was revealed?
With Concubine Gu's power back then, without outside help, could she really cover the sky with one hand and cover up such a shocking truth?
“The reason why I asked the princess to help is because we are both women.” Mrs. Without even realizing it.”
