Hearing Zhao Huayin's question, Old Madam Zhao staggered and almost fell.

Shocked, his mind raced. No matter how Zhao Huaqin knew about this, he had to calm her down now.

Although there is no one else in the room now, this is Yan Qi's place after all, and Madam Zhao cannot reveal her flaws in front of others.

"Huaqin, I know there is some rift between you and my elder sister, but it's not good to say such things casually."

After saying this, Old Madam Zhao looked around.

"Now that His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin is protecting her, you are in the city defense camp, so you must not say anything bad about your elder sister."

Old Madam Zhao looked nervous and worried, which made Zhao Huaqin want to laugh.

So that’s it.

Even at this time, Old Madam Zhao still looked like she had the best for Zhao Huaqin.

If I think about it carefully, weren't all the past events that I learned about "inadvertently" revealed by Old Madam Zhao?

I still remember that afternoon when I was young, Zhao Huaqin and Zhao Huayin had a quarrel, and I hid in the room crying alone.

Old Madam Zhao brought the nanny beside her to see her, and after comforting Zhao Huaqin, she left.

It was because during that period, Old Madam Zhao told Zhao Huaqin not to fight with her elder sister and not to hate her because of past events.

Zhao Huaqin thought for a long time but still couldn't figure out why she hated Zhao Huayin, so she decided to chase her out and ask.

When they chased to the corridor, Zhao Huaqin saw Old Madam Zhao sitting there drinking tea through the window.

Zhao Huaqin walked closer and was about to ask Madam Zhao what she meant by her words just now.

Then I heard the conversation between Old Madam Zhao and the nanny.

"Huaqin is not an easy child. She and her brother lost their mother when they were young. Moreover, she is very proud and always competes with Yinyin.

If this continues, I'm afraid I'll suffer."

Zhao Huaqin was just about to explain that she was not competing with her elder sister. The quarrel today was just because she lost the bet and didn't want to give the new jade rabbit to Zhao Huayin.

The two argued for a few words and then she went back to her room and cried, hoping that things would be fine between her and her elder sister tomorrow.

Before Zhao Huaqin could speak, the nanny beside Old Madam Zhao sighed and said,

"Ah, old lady, please take good care of Miss Qin."

"Of course I have to raise her and take good care of her now, but she is old after all, so there will inevitably be times when I cannot take care of her.

You should be more attentive. As long as Huayin goes to the waterside of the garden, don't let Huaqin go there. After all, Huaqin's biological mother died there.

Huayin was still young at the time, so we couldn't say anything, especially since the boss was always protecting her."

"Oh my god! Why are you talking about the past for no reason, old lady? It's windy here, I'd better help you into the house."

After another pause, Mrs. Zhao continued,

“Huaqin and her brother lost their mother at a young age, which is also pitiful.

Seeing how Shen Bi loves Hua Yin, they are naturally sad. It is no wonder that they do not want their own mother. After all, who doesn't want their own mother? "

"I see that Madam treats Miss Qin and her brother wholeheartedly."

"After all, human hearts are hard to predict. Everything looks good in front of others, but who can tell for sure behind their backs?"

……

Madam Zhao and her servant walked away while talking, leaving Zhao Huaqin feeling as if struck by lightning.

Zhao Huaqin's mother Zeng died of complications during childbirth after falling into the water. Was Mrs. Zhao's words just now saying that Zeng's fall into the water was related to Zhao Huayin?

Could it be that his mother was killed by Zhao Huayin?

Zhao Huaqin remembered that it was from that day on that she was certain that Zhao Huayin had killed her biological mother.

Whenever he was with Zhao Huayin, he could not hide the hatred in his heart.

But Zhao Huayin had a father who was a minister and a mother who came from a noble family, so she was very much loved.

He and Hua Zhang became children without a mother. Although they had a father, they were only relying on the influence of their ancestors.

Zhao Huaqin also thought about telling her father that Zhao Huayin was the enemy who killed her mother.

But the most common thing Daddy said every day was to remind Zhao Huaqin and her brother to listen to their aunt and get along well with their eldest sister.

Even if I said it myself, Daddy would definitely not stand on my side!

At that time, Zhao Huaqin was only a few years old and naturally could not do anything. But once the seeds of hatred were planted, they would one day grow into towering trees.

As they spent time together day after day, Zhao Huaqin's thoughts gradually became distorted.

I used to think Shen Bi was good to Hua Zhang and myself, and Hua Zhang also liked his aunt and sister the most.

But in Zhao Huaqin's view, those were all Shen Bi's malicious behaviors, and Zhao Huayin would not really treat her brother well.

With such obsession, and with the vague guidance of Old Madam Zhao, Zhao Huaqin's hatred grew deeper and deeper.

The hatred was so strong that he wanted Zhao Huayin to die!

Unexpectedly, the King of Qin placed a piece of evidence in front of him yesterday. It was the confession of a maid named Cuizhi.

Zhao Huaqin knew this name. Cuizhi was once a personal maidservant to her mother Zeng.

Later, after Zeng fell into the water and died during childbirth, Cuizhi disappeared.

Zhao Huaqin was young at that time, and she had fallen seriously ill after Zeng's death.

When Zhao Huaqin woke up, she never saw Cuizhi again.

Zhao Huaqin was shocked not only because Yan Qi found someone close to Zeng, but also because Zhao Huaqin had never thought of verifying this matter.

Just because of his suspicions, he convicted Zhao Huayin.

Even though Cuizhi's confession was placed here, Zhao Huaqin subconsciously rejected it and was unwilling to pick it up and read it.

There were two voices fighting in his heart: one said that this must be fake, and that the King of Qin made false evidence for Zhao Huayin, so what?

Another said that you must not look at it, because what you have done over the years will become a joke.

After struggling in her heart for a long time, Zhao Huaqin finally looked at it.

After reading it, Zhao Huaqin's eyes turned red, and she seemed to be trying her best to endure and restrain herself.

The testimony said that Zhao Huayin was indeed present when Zeng fell into the water, but a nanny serving Old Madam Zhao took Zhao Huayin to a nearby place and then disappeared.

Zhao Huayin was still young, and couldn't find a nanny to lead the way, so she accidentally walked to the place where Zeng fell into the water.

Cuizhi had found it a little strange back then. After Zeng became pregnant, she complained about the fishy smell whenever she walked by the water, and she never went to the lotus pond on weekdays.

For some reason that day, Cuizhi was sent away alone, and something bad happened during that trip.

That night, Zeng died of complications during childbirth. Cuizhi was supposed to stay and take care of the newborn baby, but not long after, her mother passed away, so Cuizhi returned home.

After Cuizhi had dealt with the affairs at home, she wanted to return to the Zhao Mansion to work, but was driven out by the people around Old Madam Zhao.

After reading Cuizhi's confession, Zhao Huaqin had already believed it for the most part, but she still refused to admit it.

Until the people from the city defense camp brought Cuizhi to Zhao Huaqin.
