Emperor Jingxuan was at a loss when he heard this.

Emperor Jingxuan thought for a while, and asked: "Duke Protector...has he left the capital? Come back as soon as he comes back. It is worth your efforts to mobilize the crowd? It's just that he left the capital, and he didn't report it. I won't be angry about such a trivial matter."

Generally speaking, such ministers with titles are not allowed to leave the capital without permission.

However, it's not worth running to plead guilty in the middle of the night, is it?

Qin Canglan said sternly: "What I mean is...the real son of Chen and Hua Yin has returned, and the Lord Protector of the family...is not the real Qin Che!"

As he said, he cupped his hands and pleaded guilty, "I'm guilty of confusing the blood of the Duke of the Protectorate, causing His Majesty to be deceived, please come down!"

...

"...That's the way it is. I've said everything I need to say. If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do about it. You can go ask Big Brother yourself."

In the study, Qin Hai suppressed the anger rolling in his chest, and told about Qin Che's life experience.

No one knows how much pain and struggle he has experienced in his heart.

It's the most fucked up thing in my life.

God must not be used to his idleness and prodigal behavior, so he gave him a series of loud slaps.

Qin Che looked at Qin Hai with ice-cold eyes, and there was already a trace of bewilderment in his eyes: "I don't believe it, I don't believe a word of what you say!"

Qin Hai said with a headache: "What's the benefit of me lying to you? Your mother and I..."

Qin Che yelled: "Shut up! You are not allowed to insult my mother! My mother only has my father as her husband, and she has never had an affair with any other man!"

Qin Hai hesitated to speak, and waved his hands impatiently for a long while: "Okay, okay, what do you like, anyway, the task assigned to me by the elder brother has been completed! If you don't want to accept it, when the elder brother comes back, go find the elder brother Bar!"

Qin Che clenched his fist tightly, his nails almost digging into his palm.

The dim candle light fell on one side of his cheek, illuminating his eyes with a gloomy light.

Qin Hai got up and left, stopped at the door, frowned and looked at him: "You can be content, anyway, you are still the flesh and blood of our Qin family!"

If it's really a bastard from outside, it's not enough to die a hundred times!

Thinking of how many years he had been a pure and wronged son, Qin Hai became extremely irritable.

"What the hell is going on!"

Qin Hai left angrily!

The rain outside the house had obviously stopped, but for some reason, there was another burst of lightning and thunder.

The strong wind extinguished the candles on the table, and the room flickered, making Qin Che look gloomy.

He was stunned for a long time, then suddenly raised his arm, and knocked off the porcelain, calligraphy and paintings on the table!

He roared with red eyes: "I don't believe it... I don't believe it! I don't believe it—"

...

Qixiang Palace.

Concubine Xian was sitting on the couch, holding a book in one hand and supporting her head with the other.

She wants to read poetry and books, but she often gets sleepy when she flips through the books.

With a loud bang, Concubine Xian shook in shock, and the book in her hand fell to the ground with a snap.

The maid at the side hurriedly picked it up and presented it to Concubine Xian with both hands.

Concubine Xian was too lazy to reach out to pick it up.

At this moment, Nanny Gui, who had served her for many years, came in with a bowl of freshly cooked bird's nest stewed in rock sugar.

Nanny Gui put the bird's nest on the small table, and took the poetry collection handed over by the maid: "Go down."

"yes."

The court lady retreated respectfully.

Nanny Gui put the collection of poems on the table, picked up the bird's nest, and handed it to Concubine Xian: "Your Majesty, you don't use much for dinner, why don't you eat some bird's nest."

Concubine Xian rubbed the flesh on her stomach: "Don't eat, fat."

In order to keep in shape, women in the palace have to avoid each other, and it is common for them to go hungry.

With the status of concubine Xian, she gave birth to a prince and princess, so it stands to reason that she no longer needs to serve others with sex.

However, Concubine Xian refused to accept her old age, and when she saw the crops of young beautiful women in the harem, she was stunned and refused to lose to them.

"Why isn't Your Majesty here yet?" Concubine Xian muttered.

Nanny Gui smiled: "I'll be here. Maybe it's raining outside and the road is muddy and difficult, so I walked slower."

"Which song is the queen singing tonight?" Concubine Xian has already found out clearly that it was the queen who brought the snacks to Emperor Jingxuan first, and then Emperor Jingxuan went to Kunning Palace.

This is not like a queen's style.

It's not like Emperor Jingxuan's either.

Emperor Jingxuan and the empress have long lost their relationship as husband and wife, let alone sending snacks, even if the empress washes his hands and makes soup for Emperor Jingxuan himself, Emperor Jingxuan will not be moved.

Nanny Gui said: "Your Majesty, after all, the empress is in the middle palace."

Concubine Xian snorted coldly and said, "What's wrong with the middle palace? She has no favor and can't give birth to a son, and she's just living up to the name of a queen! If it wasn't for her daughter's good character, His Majesty really cares about her!"

Nanny Gui smiled helplessly, took a spoonful of white fungus soup and fed it to her mouth: "Your Majesty, eat some."

After all, Concubine Xian couldn't hold back, she took a few bites from the spoon handed by Nanny Gui, and then she gently pushed the bowl aside, refusing to eat any more.

At this time, the eunuch who was ordered to pass the message brought the news that Emperor Jingxuan had been intercepted.

Concubine Xian's eyes sharpened: "Which bitch is it this time?"

Nanny Gui said, "It's the old Duke Protector."

Hearing that the woman was not from the harem, Concubine Xian's expression turned pale: "Is the border war going to war again?"

Qin Canglan has long been absent from court, and can run to the palace in the middle of the night, in Concubine Xian's opinion, unless there is a war at the border.

Concubine Xian smiled: "If the old Hu Guogong leads the army again, let the Third Highness go out with him and earn a share of military merit."

Military merit is the support of the people, and ordinary princes have no chance to lead military merit.

As for the safety of her son, Concubine Xian is not worried at all.

With Qin Canglan around, how could His Highness the Third Highness be sent to the battlefield?

Qin Canglan went to charge the front line, and the Third Highness just waited for the lead.

Concubine Xian smiled happily: "Liu Sande, send your majesty a bowl of ginseng soup, and tell your majesty by the way that it is enough for me to have an imperial doctor take care of me here, so that your majesty doesn't have to worry about it."

When Liu Sande came back from the imperial study, his expression was not right: "Your Majesty, something happened!"

Concubine Xian asked indifferently: "What's the panic?"

Liu Sande glanced at Nanny Gui, Nanny Gui is Concubine Xian's confidant, so there is no need to avoid her.

Liu Sande then told the news he overheard from the imperial study.

Concubine Xian sat up straight in shock: "What did you say? The Protector is not Qin Canglan's son? Then who is he! Where is the real Protector?"

Liu Sande bite the bullet and said: "Who is he... The slave didn't catch it clearly. In short, it seems that he made a mistake back then. Now the real Lord Protector has returned and is living in the capital."

He just went to deliver ginseng soup, and stood outside for a while, listening intermittently.

Concubine Xian was very anxious.

Her son was engaged to the Duke Protector's Mansion, but if that Qin Che was fake, wouldn't this marriage be—

Concubine Xian had a sad face: "What did your Majesty say?"

Liu Sande said embarrassingly: "I only heard so much. Later, Eunuch Fu took the ginseng soup in. I couldn't stay any longer, so I had to leave first."

Nanny Gui persuaded: "Your Majesty, why don't you wait, maybe tomorrow, His Majesty will hear from you."

"Is this kind of thing worth waiting for?" Concubine Xian stood up and paced up and down the room, "No, I can't just sit and wait. San Dezi, you go to Jing's house and tell my father about it. Tell him to find out the identity of the real Qin Che as soon as possible!"

Against the thunder and lightning, Liu Sande left Qixiang Palace tremblingly.

It was also his luck that Xiao Anzi came over just a few steps away.

Xiao Anzi worked in the imperial study and had been favored by Liu Sande.

Xiao Anzi said: "Eunuch Liu, I heard some news."

A quarter of an hour later, Liu Sande returned to Qixiang Palace and told the news he had inquired about.

"It was the people from Zhenbeihou's Mansion who brought them back to Beijing. The Su family went back to their hometown to worship their ancestors, and they met that family by chance..."

"The man changed his name to Su Cheng. He was living among the people, and he didn't remember who he was. He grew up stumbling... He got married in the countryside and had a son and a daughter, who were about the same age as Miss Qin and the young master."

Concubine Xian said coldly: "What little prince? That's all fake!"

"Ah, yes, yes!" Liu Sande was annoyed that he forgot to change his words, so he quickly smiled and said, "The one who came from the people is the real little prince."

Concubine Xian thoughtfully said: "You just said...the real Qin Che also has a daughter who is the same age as Qin Yanran?"

Liu Sande said: "Yes."

The two families got engaged. If the girl who grew up in the countryside was the real daughter of the Qin family, would my daughter-in-law become her?

Concubine Xian frowned slightly: "Is a girl who grew up in the countryside worthy of my son?"
