The legitimate daughter is reborn and the fake Bai Lian is completely panicked

After saying this, Eunuch Lai Fu turned around and left.

The prince froze in place with a sullen face.

Now that His Majesty has not investigated his identity, I am afraid it is to save his face and also to save face for Dayan.

The prince was heartbroken when he didn't see the queen.

However, he also learned from the palace people that the queen's throat was damaged by the fire and she could not speak.

After he returned to the East Palace, the counselor Jiang Lingyu walked out from behind the screen.

"Your Highness, I'm afraid you have guessed who was responsible for today's incident."

"It's a feint to the east and attack in the west, luring the tiger away from the mountain. What a good show."

"How could the Eastern Palace prison be found by Prince Rui's men for no reason? Could there be a spy in the Eastern Palace?"

In the shadowy room, the prince sat on a chair with a gloomy face and a cold voice, "Is there a spy in the East Palace?"

"Who could be the spy?"

He took a deep breath and said in a cold voice: "Today's matter was ultimately due to my carelessness."

"Now my father has begun to doubt my identity. It is not easy for me to be the crown prince of the Eastern Palace."

The prince's eyes darkened, "Murong Che, the Shen family, the Prince of Jin..."

"Could it be that someone has already discovered the death of Marquis Pingyang?"

After thinking for a moment, the prince looked up at Jiang Lingyu.

"If I don't find a way to sever the relationship between Prince Rui and the Shen family, I will be killed sooner or later."

Jiang Lingyu sighed.

"Now the King Rui has a deep affection for the Second Miss of the Shen Family. It may be difficult to cut off their love."

"However, I do have a way."

The prince frowned and asked, "What method?"

Jiang Lingyu smiled and said, "The Princess of Liguo is about to enter the city. Your Highness, why don't you meet them before they enter the city?"

"As far as I know, when Murong Che fled Liguo, he took a little girl with him and killed the sixth prince of Liguo. It seems that King Rui has a grudge against them."

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend."

As soon as Jiang Lingyu finished speaking, the prince suddenly felt enlightened. His eyes changed slightly, "You are right."

He immediately stood up from his chair and ordered the guards beside him, "Prepare a fast horse for me, the fastest one."

"I will go to see the Princess of Liguo in person in advance."

The guard nodded, "Yes, Your Highness."

In the second half of the night, the prince left the East Palace, mounted his horse, and headed straight for the outskirts of Yanjing with a few guards.

After the people in the Eastern Palace prison were rescued, Murong Che ordered them to be sent to a farm in the suburbs to be raised.

He also sent people to check the identities of those people one by one.

However, these dozen people had been imprisoned in the Eastern Palace for more than ten or twenty years, kept in the dark underground prison of the Eastern Palace, and were poisoned and unconscious. It was impossible to get anything out of them.

Late at night, Murong Che had just returned to Prince Rui's Mansion and was about to change his clothes before going to see Shen Mi.

As soon as I landed, I heard the voice of the guards outside.

"Fourth Master, there is news from Zhuangzi."

Murong Che put down the sword in his hand and strode out of the room.

"explain."

The guard was a little anxious: "We have found several doctors to check them out, and they are indeed poisoned."

"The doctor said this poison is difficult to cure. Even if it is completely cured, it will take them a month or even more than half a year to wake up."

"A month or even half a year?" Murong Che frowned.

"If so, it's been too long."

"What's more, there are people from the Shen family inside, and their identities must be confirmed clearly."

He seemed to think of Yu Zian.

"Go and ask Doctor Yu to come over. Remember not to reveal your identity and don't let others notice."

"Yes, Your Highness."

After the guards left, Murong Che changed into black clothes and climbed onto the horse under the cover of night.

He pulled the reins in his hand suddenly, frowned slightly, raised the whip, and went straight to Shen's house.

At this moment, in the inner residence of the Shen family.

Late at night, everyone fell asleep, only Shen Mi sat by the window quietly waiting for Murong Che.

The candlelight in the room flickered slightly, making her face look very delicate.

She had learned from Yun Lan what had happened in the Crown Prince's Mansion today, as well as what had happened between the Queen and Duke Lin.

Late at night, there was some movement at the north window. Shen Mi got up and looked, and saw Bai Ze coming in through the window.

After a while, a shadow appeared in front of the door.

As the door creaked open, Shen Mi saw Murong Che dressed in black.

"Fourth Master."

The moment Shen Mi saw Murong Che, she hurried over.

Murong Che had a blank expression on his face. Seeing her still waiting so late, he felt a little distressed.

"It's so late, and you're still waiting for me."

"Miss me?"

Shen Mi nodded, "I was worried for a whole day, and I felt relieved when I heard Yun Lan say that you were all fine."

Murong Che curled his lips slightly, put his arms around her waist and held her in his arms.

"Fourth Master, have you changed your clothes?"

Murong Che nodded and hugged her and walked inside.

"I came to see you, but I can't let you see blood."

The two walked to the tea table, Shen Mi reached out to pour him some tea.

He kept frowning, as if he was worried about something.

Shen Mi asked: "What's wrong with the Fourth Master? Are you unhappy?"

Murong Che shook his head, “I’m not unhappy.”

He picked up the tea on the table and took a sip.

"The rescued prisoners are now being kept in a farm in the suburbs."

"They were poisoned by the people in the East Palace yesterday. It will probably take some time for them to wake up."

Shen Mi's hand holding the teacup froze, "If this is the case, we can't be sure of the identities of the two people from the Shen family."

"Tomorrow, I can only take my sister over to have a look."

Murong Che put down the teacup in his hand and said, "Your senior brother is a great doctor. See if you can detoxify them and wake them up early."

"I am still investigating the matter of Uncle Chang's surrender."

"Tomorrow, I will ask Ye Shiqing to go to the palace and tell my father about my identity as the queen and the truth about the annihilation of the Ye family. Naturally, my father will question my identity as the crown prince."

"The queen will also die."

"She is closely related to the death of my mother."

"She's done enough as the Queen of Dayan."

Shen Mi pursed her lips and looked at Murong Che.

"Fourth Master, your enemy is dead, you should be happy."

Murong Che was silent for a moment, then raised his eyes to look at Shen Mi.

He stretched out his hand towards Shen Mi, "Come."

Shen Mi stood up and walked to his side, "What's wrong, Fourth Master?"

Murong Che said: "I have been thinking about it for a long time these days."

"It's too late for you and me to postpone our marriage until next year."

Shen Mi was puzzled: "But Daddy's mourning period has not yet ended."

Murong Che stretched out his hands and held the person in his arms. Thinking that Princess Luo Yihuan of the Li Kingdom had already entered Yanjing City, he felt that it was not a good thing.

If he and Shen Mi had not yet married, Shen Mi would be taken back to Liguo.

He had no identity, but went to Liguo to protect her.

If Shen Mi became Princess Rui, this would be a fact that could not be changed.

Thinking of this, Murong Che said calmly: "Now, you have been in mourning for half a year."

"In fact, Dayan did not force women in the boudoir to observe mourning for a year."

The more Shen Mi listened, the more she felt that Murong Che's words were a bit strange.

"Fourth Master, you are not hiding anything from me, right?"

Murong Che was silent and shook his head slowly.

"No."

Shen Mi didn't believe it, but he didn't ask too much.

In the second half of the night, after she fell asleep, Murong Che left alone.

……

The next day, in the court hall.

The Ministry of Justice submitted a memorial regarding the incident involving the Ye family in Huaizhou.

Emperor Ren De opened the memorial, glanced at it, and closed it again.

The incident of the Huaizhou Ye family embezzling disaster relief funds involved the current queen, Duke Lin, and even the old subordinates of the Duke's Mansion.

It also concerns the reputation of Dayan, so Emperor Ren De did not say anything.

After the court affairs were over, Ye Shiqing was taken to the imperial study of Emperor Ren De by Lord Zhang from the Ministry of Justice.

As soon as he entered the imperial study, Ye Shiqing knelt down immediately.

"I, Ye Shiqing, pay my respects to His Majesty."

Emperor Ren De put down the memorial in his hand and glanced at him coldly.

He gave Eunuch Lai Fu another look, and Eunuch Lai Fu dismissed all the people in the Imperial Study.

Then he closed the door of the imperial study.

After the door of the imperial study was closed, only Ye Shiqing and Emperor Ren De were inside.

Ye Shiqing knew that this matter concerned the status of the Queen, so His Majesty dismissed the others.

After he handed over the letter and some evidence left by his second uncle before his death to Emperor Ren De, Emperor Ren De looked at the contents of the letter and his face twisted with anger.

It turns out that the queen was a chess piece of Duke Lin, a chess piece to bring down the previous queen.

Duke Lin sent the queen, who already had a son, to the Gao family to become the Gao family's legitimate daughter.

The Gao family is a prominent family in Yanjing, and they also hold military power.

The queen was allowed to enter the palace as the legitimate daughter of the Gao family and be selected for selection in order to gain the queen's favor.

This conspiracy caused the late queen to die early.

As a result, Murong Che was sent away from the country.

As a result, Zhang Huaian was raised in the Zhang family for many years.

There was another little prince who also died.

Emperor Ren De sat on the dragon throne, the letter in his hand trembling slightly.

"For so many years, I have been deceived by the traitors."

He stared at Ye Shiqing for a moment, "I will have the Ministry of Justice conduct a thorough investigation of this matter. If your second uncle did not embezzle the disaster relief money, I will announce it to the world and clear your Ye family's name."

Ye Shiqing was so excited that his whole body was shaking. "I thank your Majesty. Long live your Majesty."

If the Ye family was rehabilitated, he and his sister would not have to live a life of exile from now on.

After Ye Shiqing left, Emperor Ren De sat upright on the chair with a sullen face.

He ordered Eunuch Lai Fu beside him, "Go and prepare."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Qing'an Hall is very quiet and cold at night.

The queen sat on the bed, thinking about recent events.

It seemed that ever since Marquis Pingyang left, she and the prince had been on a downward spiral.

The prince's engagement was broken off, his affair with Shen Shu was exposed, and Lin, who was arranged to live in Pingyang Marquis' Mansion, also died inexplicably.

Later, the prince was shot and struck with the ninth grade red, making him unable to have children, so Yu Zi'an entered the Eastern Palace.

Lan Ci was killed, Prince Xin's mansion was destroyed, Yun Jue fled Yanjing, she even started a fire in Wanfu Temple, and the Wen family was stripped of their titles.

Each and every one of these was a revenge carefully planned by Shen Mi.

Before the incident, she had never doubted Shen Li and Shen Mi, thinking that they were just two little girls who couldn't cause any trouble.

Unfortunately, they miscalculated.

After a while, the sound of a lock being unlocked was heard from outside, and then under the bright moonlight, two maids came in holding a white silk.

When she saw Bai Ling, the queen unconsciously shrank back.

The nanny who came in said in a deep voice: "My lady, for the sake of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's reputation, let's go."

"Your Majesty already knows your identity, as well as the truth behind the death of the late Queen."

"Leaving your body intact is also a way to save your face."

The queen opened her mouth and babbled something, but her throat was so dry that she couldn't speak at all.

Before she could react, several maids brought a white silk silk and wrapped it around her neck. They pulled it hard and the queen died.

In the dark and silent Qing'an Palace, the queen kept her eyes open until her death, staring outside.

She met Duke Lin when she was fourteen years old. He rescued her from a brothel and promised to be with her for the rest of her life. They also gave birth to Lan Ci together.

Later, he sent her to the Gao family and sent her to the palace as the Gao family's legitimate daughter to compete for the throne.

After the death of the previous queen, she became the honorable queen of Dayan and sat on the throne for more than ten years.

I thought that I could wait with Lord Lin until the clouds cleared and the moon appeared, but I didn't know that my life would end here.
