Xie Zhen sighed deeply: "Yes, didn't I tell you just now? When the Queen and I confirmed our relationship, I didn't know that he was the legitimate second daughter of the Wang family. I just thought he was from a wealthy family. It’s just a little lady. In fact, this matter is also due to my poor behavior at the time and my lack of sense of responsibility."

Liu Meiniang suddenly interrupted him and said anxiously: "I don't blame you for this matter. It was because our family wanted to get married with your family at the beginning and pushed it too hard. After all, our family's affairs were very complicated at that time. If we can't marry you as soon as possible, our family will also be implicated and implicated. At that time, we only focused on calming down, and our family's goods were delivered, and we didn't have time to ask you if you already have a sweetheart, so you caused today's disaster. These are all It’s my fault, it’s all our Liu family’s fault.”

As Liu Meiniang spoke, she was so deeply moved that she couldn't help but shed a few tears. In fact, she had fallen in love with Xie Zhen many years ago and had been looking forward to becoming his wife. However, she knew that her status was low and she did not dare to climb high, so she kept this friendship silently buried in her heart. It wasn't until that incident happened that she had the opportunity to marry Xie Zhen and become husband and wife. This was her long-cherished wish, so for her own wish, she selfishly refused to agree and did not ask Xie Zhen whether he already had a sweetheart. .

Xie Huaichu was silent. Although what Liu Meiniang said was a bit abrupt and made people confused for a moment, he clearly knew what Liu Meiniang meant. She once told herself and her sister about this matter. The Liu family and the Xie family were basically related by marriage. However, the Liu family had a very low social status in business and was looked down upon by others, so the relationship between the two families was a little weak. It's a matter of in-laws, and it goes back several generations, so ultimately, the relationship between the two families is not deep. But after all, the two families had a first-level marriage relationship, and the Liu family often visited the Xie family in some places to send some precious gifts to the Xie family, so the two families never lost contact.

Xie's family was in decline and did not have many children. Xie Zhen often studied abroad and was away from home for three days. The old lady and the old man of the Xie family who had not yet gone there felt lonely, so they thought of raising a child from a branch of the Xie family. It's a pity that their family is also a side branch, and their voice and status in the family are very low, and the conditions at home are not very good, so no one wants to raise their children in their family.

At this time, the Liu family was dozing off and sent pillows, and sent the young Liu Meiniang to the hands of the old lady and the old man of the Xie family, asking them to raise her on her behalf. Because the Liu family wanted to go to Jiangnan to do business at that time, but they did not want their daughter to follow them to the unknown Jiangnan, so they sent her to the Xie family. The two families just got what each other needed, and they hit it off immediately, and Liu Meiniang stayed in the Xie family from then on. Therefore, she and Xie Zhen can be regarded as childhood sweethearts, and they have a friendship that they grew up with together.

Until more than 20 years ago, the Liu family was involved in an official bank case. The whole family was anxious and anxious, and they tried their best to get rid of this case. Xie Zhen happened to be of marriageable age, so he wanted to let Liu Meiniang, the eldest daughter of the family, marry him. The old man of the Xie family who had not passed away at that time was kind-hearted and loved Liu Meiniang very much, so he decided to betroth her to Xie Zhen. This was the reason why they became husband and wife.

Xie Zhen patted Liu Meiniang on the back: "Don't cry. These are all in the past. They are all things about old sesame seeds and rotten millet. How can you be so sad? You are not to blame for what happened back then, but I am also to blame. I was rather cowardly at the time and did not tell the whole story."

But Liu Meiniang suddenly said bitterly: "It's not your fault, but it's also the Queen's fault. Why did she conceal her identity to contact you, and why did she suddenly lose sight of you after that incident happened with you? She actually fell in love with you, and why didn’t she want to marry you? Since she chose not to say anything, why did she suddenly come to you on the eve of our wedding? I don’t know why the Queen did such a series of things. God knows she was then What are you thinking about?"

Xie Zhen paused for a moment and then said: "Maybe it's because the Wang family has a noble family and looks down on our family. That's why she kept hiding her identity and contacting me. Maybe during this time, she was also struggling with whether to reveal her identity to me. Do you want to reveal your plans to me or not? But in the end, she missed it when she was struggling. I can only say that neither of us was wrong in this matter. It was God who was wrong, and it was this fate that went round and round."

Liu Meiniang wiped her tears and sighed: "You are right, these are fates. If she wants to blame, then blame fate!"

Xie Huaichu quietly watched the performance of the two people in front of him. They were deeply affectionate as husband and wife, and also listened quietly to their speculations about what the Queen had done. In his heart, he just wanted to sneer. Xie Zhen was so shameless that he actually gave himself a favor and slandered the Queen to this extent.

"Then I have a general idea of ​​what happened in the past, but there is still something I don't quite understand. I hope you can answer my questions." Xie Huaichu said.

Xie Zhen himself felt that he must have believed what he said, so he felt much better and felt a little proud: "Just ask, I will definitely tell you everything I know."

Xie Huaichu said: "Since the Queen Empress had a past with you at that time, and she became pregnant with me because of it, how did she avoid detection and still successfully enter the palace and marry an official? If I were the Queen Empress's child, So where did the mother’s biological child go?”

These words are what really hit Xie Zhen's pain point. After hearing these words, he was stunned for a moment, then avoided his eyes and pursed his lips: "I don't know about these things. If you want to understand these things , I think there is only one way to go now, and that is to personally ask the Queen what happened back then."

Xie Huaichu quickly refuted his words: "No, you must first tell everything you know. Don't hide anything. I will ask you clearly before I consider whether to ask the Queen."

"What happened back then? In fact, I am also in a mess. As for your life experience, I just learned some news in the past two days." Xie Zhen said quibly. He also looked back at Liu Meiniang from time to time, making eye contact with her, trying to get him to prove it to himself.

"Yes, your father, Zhen Lang, only learned about it in the past two days. What happened to this news back then? In fact, he doesn't know the specific details. We are telling you this just to let you understand. After my birth, I can find an opportunity to confront the Queen, solve the mystery of the year, let us have a clear understanding, and let me know where my biological child went." Liu Meiniang testified for Xie Zhen.

"No, don't you find something strange? The Queen is far away in the palace. How could she have the opportunity to exchange your biological child? Judging from the time, she had just become the new queen at that time, so Justice is not familiar enough with everything, and he may not be able to cultivate his own confidants, so how could he have the energy to go beyond the palace and reach out to your biological child?"
