Wei Qingyan and Liu He's first reaction was to think of Yu Zhengde. Concubine Li was not dead. Perhaps only Yu Zhengde knew where she was.
But neither of them looked at him.
Concubine Li faked her death and left the palace without telling the emperor.
Regardless of whether this person is good or bad, even if the Yu family is full of hundreds of lives, Wei Qingyan will not turn his attention to Yu Zhengde at this moment and arouse the emperor's suspicion.
Liu He, on the other hand, was anxious and entangled in his heart, and finally chose to hide the fact that Concubine Li was still alive.
How could she have thought that Luo Congyun, whom she worked so hard to please, was not a princess.
The emperor previously promised to keep her children alive because she raised a princess, but now she is raising a princess who is not a princess and has lost the real princess. Will the emperor fulfill his previous promise?
Liu He's heart fell into an ice cave.
In this desperate situation, Yu Zhengde became her last hope.
I hope that Yu Zhengde will try his best to save her child because she did not confess to Concubine Li.
Therefore, she quickly changed her mind, "It's possible that someone changed my position after I returned to the house. The princess had never cried before, but when she arrived at the house, she couldn't stop crying.
Perhaps it was because the baby was no longer the same as before. The newly born child was wrapped tightly. I took the child from the palace, but because of guilt and fear, I did not dare to take a serious look at the child's appearance.
It's also possible that someone transferred me on the way to Luo's house. The road to Linzhou is too far, and anything could happen along the way, but I really didn't mean it..."
She seemed to be very frightened, and her speech was incoherent. In the end, she could no longer speak and just kowtowed to the emperor.
If the emperor insists on investigating what happened back then, there is no guarantee that he will not find out that Yu Zhengde helped Concubine Li escape. If Yu Zhengde falls, her children will have no hope at all.
When Wei Qingyan heard Liu He change her mind, he understood what she was thinking.
Liu He is not a good person and has done many bad things, but he is a good mother.
The dirty things she did have never been touched by her children, and now she has plans for them.
Untimely, Wei Qingyan suddenly thought of his mother. I wonder if she would return to Beijing at this time?
Lan Shu listened to Liu He's clueless words and felt desperate.
Concubine Li is dead.
There is no clue in Liu He's words. Twenty-one years have passed since the incident, and there is a huge crowd. How can she find her daughter? Is her daughter still alive?
"Auntie, don't worry, I will help you find your child."
Wei Qingyan's low words rang in her ears, like dropping a seed into the barren land.
Lan Shu slowly, slowly turned her head to look at Wei Qingyan.
Facing Wei Qingyan's firm gaze, Lan Shu raised her hand and touched her head, "Okay."
The seeds bloomed in despair. Lan Shu believed in Wei Qingyan unconditionally. Her girl never told lies and she would definitely do what she promised.
Her hands caressed the two spindles on the top of Wei Qingyan's head. It was because of these two spindles that she got close to the bedridden girl when she first met her.
At that time, she thought that if her daughter was still alive, she would have two spinners, and they would be as big as the girl.
Seeing that her body was covered with scars and only her eyes could move, the motherly love in her heart seemed to overflow, and she felt extremely distressed.
In the end, her girl survived strongly, and her mental state improved a lot because of the girl's company. The girl said that if she could find a child for her, she would definitely be able to find one.
Lan Shu held Wei Qingyan's hand tightly, "Girl, Agu wants to go back."
If her children are not here, this place means nothing to her.
"Okay, let's go back."
Wei Qingyan responded, turned around and resigned with the emperor.
The descendants of the Lan family do not need to kneel when they see the king, and there is no problem in leaving.
This is the treatment Agu fought for her, how could she live up to it.
Feng Ruobao could become a useful eunuch by the emperor, so he was not incompetent, but he allowed the secret guard leader to commit suicide.
Wei Qingyan knew that the emperor did not want to go deep into Huangshaling. Feng Ruobao belonged to the emperor. Even if the emperor said nothing, Feng Ruobao could understand what he meant with a look or a slight movement.
It was the emperor who wanted the leader of the secret guard to die.
The queen refused to admit it, and said that Liu He was Beiling's work. Liu He had no evidence to prove it, and the queen had been relegated to the cold palace. The Huangshaling matter would be shelved, and there was no need for her to stay.
After all, there were some people whose lives the emperor refused to give, so she took them herself.
There were some things that the emperor refused to investigate, so she would investigate on her own.
The emperor wanted to keep Lan Shu, and he had many things to say to her, but it was very unpleasant to see her like that. In addition, the fact that she had not hesitated to commit suicide to get out of the palace had left him with a shadow to this day, so he agreed. nod.
As long as you are in the capital, there is always a chance to see you again.
"You can't leave. I am really your daughter." Luo Congyun called out to Lan Shu in a hurry, "I am really a princess. How many spins on my head can be determined by anyone? Maybe I am an exception."
There will be no exceptions, this is the inheritance of the Lan family.
Lan Shu didn't look back.
Luo Congyun looked at the emperor again, "Father, I am really a member of the royal family..."
The emperor glanced at the eunuch on the side. The eunuch understood and shouted, "How dare you, Your Majesty, you can't shout nonsense? If you pretend to be a princess, you will be beheaded."
The eunuch's words brought Luo Congyun's words to an abrupt end.
She entered the palace to enjoy glory and wealth, not to die. She turned around and crawled in front of Liu He, "Aunt, aunt, tell the emperor that I am really his daughter."
Liu He hoped that she could be a princess more than Luo Congyun, but she was not the one. She had spent more than twenty years in vain. Thinking of those fine brocades and beads, she was reluctant to give more to her daughter, but she wanted to give them to her. To Luo Congyun.
Didn't he just want to give birth to her and raise her, so that when she regains her status in the future, the emperor and Luo Congyun will both think of him well and promote the Wu family?
But what Luo Congyun said just now, not only did he not think well of himself, but he also blamed her.
Liu He smiled bitterly, "I am stupid. Your Majesty is wise. How could there be a child as stupid as you? I should have been suspicious."
These words destroyed Luo Congyun's hope. She ignored her fear and said hysterically, "You lied, you lied, I am the princess. I was born noble, how could I not be a princess? I am the princess..."
The eunuchs in the palace are the best at observing words and emotions.
When Luo Congyun called the emperor "father" before, the emperor had no objection, but now he refused, which meant that Luo Congyun had no hope at all.
He signaled for someone to drag Luo Congyun out.
Shi Yu coughed at the right time and said, "Then my brother has resigned."
The emperor glanced at him, pinched his eyebrows, and waved his hand, signaling everyone to leave.
Yu Zhengde moved slowly in the corner. After everyone left, he whispered, "Your Majesty."
He came to plead guilty, but he didn't dare to leave without getting any consequences from the emperor.
The emperor's eyes fell on him, his expression was unpredictable, and he did not speak for a long time.
Yu Zhengde felt guilty about being a thief, and his back was cold and his heartbeat was beating like a drum when he was stared at. Just when he was worried that the emperor would suspect him and Concubine Li.
The emperor spoke slowly, "Yu Zhengde, your duty is to take care of my money bag."
