Qing He tried hard to recall, but her mind was blank...

She said with a hint of apology: "Sorry! I don't remember us meeting."

He Mingxuan watched coldly from the sidelines, thinking that there must be something going on...

Qinghe must have met her second nephew somewhere before, but she couldn't remember it after she lost her memory.

He Mingxuan smiled and said, "Qinghe is pregnant now, so it's inevitable that her memory is worse than before. It's normal for her to not remember!"

Miao Wuhen bowed politely and said, "Meet my aunt!"

He Mingxuan smiled and nodded, feeling that this extremely handsome second nephew had a bohemian temperament, which was completely different from her gentle and humble eldest nephew.

A sudden family reunion ended in a peaceful and relaxed atmosphere...

Qinghe said goodbye to everyone and left the Siguo Hall alone.

She walked along the corridor with a heavy heart and did not notice several palace maids standing in front of her. When she was almost up to them, she inadvertently looked up and saw them, but she did not take it seriously and continued walking forward.

As a result, the sharp-eyed Jin Ling'er saw it at a glance and thought: Hey! Isn't this the "country egg" that just flew onto the tree and turned into a phoenix?

She quickly turned her face away, not daring to let Qinghe see her!

At this time, several other palace maids also recognized Qinghe and lowered their heads.

Qing He continued to walk forward, and when she passed through a door, she unexpectedly saw Jiang Yaonian's four guards standing not far ahead...

Qing He couldn't help but feel delighted, and secretly said: "Humph! It seems that he knows that he did something wrong before, so he came to the palace to take me back!"

She took a few quick steps, came to Qian Yi and asked with a smile: "Where is Mr. Jiang?"

But to Qinghe's surprise, several guards looked nervous, especially Qian Yi.

He was stunned at first, then said unnaturally: "Young Master was specially ordered to come to see the emperor, but I didn't expect the young lady to come out so soon..."

Qing He then realized that something was wrong with the expressions of the others, so she looked around but did not see Jiang Yaonian, so she asked, "Where is Mr. Jiang?"

Seeing that they could no longer conceal the truth, several people fell silent at the same time...

Qian Yi cleared his throat, carefully choosing his words, and said half-heartedly without lying, "The young master suddenly had something urgent to do, so he asked us to wait for him here!"

Qing He looked around in confusion, and wondered in her heart, "What urgent matter could there be around here? And what could be more important than going to the palace to see the emperor?"

Suddenly, she became suspicious and had a vague feeling that something was not going well. She looked around but did not see Jiang Yaonian, so she continued walking forward...

But after walking a few steps, an idea suddenly came to my mind! I suddenly remembered that I had seen several palace maids waiting nearby, so I immediately understood what was going on... Jiang Yaonian was dating someone!

And the person he was dating was none other than the imperial concubine's sister Jiang Jianian, who had no blood relationship with him!

The two of them were meeting secretly nearby, so the people following them were keeping watch nearby!

Qinghe felt her whole body suddenly become hot, and blood rushed to her brain quickly!

She forced herself to suppress her excitement, and after looking around, she suddenly remembered that there seemed to be an empty room next to the door she had come out of, and Jiang Yaonian must be inside...

Qing He turned around and walked back. Seeing her suddenly come back, Qian Yi couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Madam, why are you back again?"

Qing He said very naturally: "Oh, I just suddenly remembered that I have something to ask grandma."

As he said that, he hurriedly walked through the door, then looked to the left, and sure enough, there was a room with a closed door.

You can tell at first glance that no one has ever lived in this house. Although the steps are swept very clean, the red paint on the door panels is a little mottled and peeling, revealing a desolate atmosphere.

Qing He walked towards the door and listened through the crack in the door, but she didn't hear any movement...

She was stunned for a moment, thinking that the two were not inside. When she was about to turn around and leave, she suddenly heard a woman's voice coming from inside saying, "Anian, I want to ask you a favor..."

Qing He's eyebrows furrowed immediately, thinking to herself: That can't be a good thing! After all, they are nominally siblings, why don't they just talk openly about it, but have to come to this secluded little room to talk about it?

Jiang Yaonian said calmly: "What's the matter?"

"If anything happens to me, can you help me take care of Nobody?"

Jiang Yaonian asked doubtfully, "What did you say?"

Concubine Jia said calmly: "I plan to fight for Wu Ren, but it will be very risky... If something happens to me, I hope you can help me take good care of Wu Ren for the sake of our past friendship and do your best to help him ascend the throne!"

Qing He frowned, thinking inwardly with displeasure: Why are you entrusting your son to someone else? Why should my husband help a nephew who has no blood relationship with him to become emperor? He is now a good nephew-in-law of his uncle, why should he risk the execution of his entire family to help your son become emperor?

Jiang Yaonian said calmly, "Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are determined by heaven, and some things are beyond human control..."

Concubine Jia suddenly laughed and said with a hint of sarcasm: "You were born as the patriarch of one of the four great families, enjoying wealth and power that is no less than that of the royal family. How can you understand my hard work and grievances... You will never know the darkness and pressure I have experienced!"

At this point, her tone could not help but sigh, and she said softly: "I was once the apple of my family's eye... I was also a noble daughter of a duke... I spent my days admiring flowers in the garden, reading in the study, with a group of maids and old women serving me, and my life was full of fantasies about the future... But suddenly overnight my family was convicted and accused of treason... My uncles were dragged out and beheaded, my grandfather and father died on the battlefield, and my whole family was exiled and sold...

The former rich lady became a servant who had to fiddle with people’s eyes and be bullied in a brothel. Because of my good looks, I was assigned to the courtesan’s room as a maid, and had to endure the teasing from the guests with bad intentions... If your family hadn’t rescued me from this hell, you can imagine what would have happened to me... A descendant of a loyal minister who had served the court for generations, ended up with such a miserable end! My cousin’s whereabouts are still unknown, and all this is thanks to a certain family! I must seek justice for my family! It doesn’t matter if I die without a burial place, but no one else can be in trouble. He is the only descendant of the Zhou family in the world..."

Jiang Yaonian listened in silence, and after a while he said softly, "I have found the whereabouts of your cousin!"

Concubine Jia was stunned, looked at him in disbelief and asked, "Have you found Yi Ling's whereabouts?"
