Chapter 122 Liu Jinshu knows the identity of the King of Qi

Old Madam Su looked at Su Mingzhe.

"Did Mingzhe know about the ancestral hall's mechanism?"

Su Mingzhe said calmly, "Grandma, I'm not sure about this matter yet. I need to take it back and investigate it thoroughly first."

"Grandmother, please keep this a secret for the next few days. Don't let my second brother find out."

Old Madam Su sighed. She naturally knew the current situation of the Su family.

"Grandma knows."

"Now that Heng'er is missing, I think she must know something."

"She burned down Fangfei Garden. Does that mean she doesn't plan to return to the Su family?"

A cold arc appeared at the corner of Su Mingzhe's lips.

"Grandma, Heng'er has his own freedom."

"Our Su family doesn't really treat her well, so why should we force her to stay in the Su family?"

Madam Su leaned on her cane and said unwillingly: "After all, our Su family has raised her for so many years, and she..."

"Mingzhe, do you also think that our Su family is wrong?"

Su Mingzhe had no expression on his face.

Back then, when his father Su Yuan, Zhou, and Princess Yan Ning assisted in stealing the girl, he was only a few years old and knew nothing.

I always thought that Su Yuheng was the biological child of the Su family until I realized it half a year ago.

"The Su family was indeed wrong."

"That's totally wrong. Grandma, please stop being so stubborn."

Old Madam Su's expression changed and she looked at Su Mingzhe in disbelief.

"But what Master Xuanming said back then..."

Su Mingzhe said coldly, "What kind of master is Xuan Ming? Only my father believes in him."

"Grandma, please turn back."

After Su Mingzhe finished speaking, he gently slid his wheelchair out of the room.

Old Madam Su sat on the chair, looking at the receding figure and muttering softly.

"Could it be that I'm really wrong?"

"But Heng'er, is she willing to leave the Su family?"

"Does she just abandon our Su family?"

Nanny Zhang walked behind Old Madam Su and helped her up.

"Madam, some things must eventually return to their place. When Madam brought Miss Jinshu back to Yanjing, perhaps the Fourth Miss had already realized that she was not the Su family's biological daughter."

Madam Su sighed: "That's all."

The next day.

The Prince of Qi and Concubine Gao in the Prince of Qi's Mansion both received the news that Princess Yan Ning had been murdered.

Inside the Prince of Qi's Mansion.

The King of Qi was sitting in his study. When he heard the guard tell him that the eldest princess was dead, he was a little bit unbelievable.

"How is this possible? How could my aunt die out of nowhere?"

The black-clad guard clasped his fists and said, "The princess's residence on the outskirts of the city has been reduced to ashes, and she has perished in the flames."

"Our people have confirmed repeatedly that there is a female corpse among them, and it is the eldest princess's."

After the black-clad guard finished speaking, the King of Qi collapsed in his chair, unable to accept it for a moment.

Is the aunt who loved and cared for him really dead?

"My aunt is really gone."

“Who on earth did this?”

The King of Qi's eyes were red as he looked at the black-clad guard in front of him.

"Have you found out who did it? Was it Father?"

The black-clad guard shook his head: "Not Your Majesty."

"Who is that?"

The guard said, "I don't know."

"Your Highness." Another guard's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

The King of Qi glanced outside the wing room and asked coldly, "What's the matter?"

The black-clad guard said, "Your Highness, Duke Gao is seeking an audience and came in through the secret passage."

"Uncle?" The King of Qi frowned. "What does my uncle want to do here? Let him in."

"Yes, Your Highness."

The door of the wing room was pushed open with a creaky sound, and Duke Gao, dressed in luxurious clothes and with a haggard face, came in from outside.

After Duke Gao entered the side room, he signaled the guards to leave.

The guard nodded and closed the door after leaving the room.

"Why is my uncle here?" the King of Qi asked.

Duke Gao looked embarrassed and worried.

"You already know what happened in the suburbs of Yanjing? The eldest princess is dead."

The King of Qi sat on the chair, squinting his eyes and looking at Duke Gao.

"Why does my uncle know about my aunt's affairs?"

"I remember that my uncle and my aunt never interacted. Why is he suddenly concerned about her affairs?"

"Could it be that my uncle and my aunt have met?"

Duke Gao sat down on the chair with an expressionless face.

He looked at King Qi with a sullen face.

"I did meet her yesterday."

The King of Qi clenched his fists and asked, "Could it be that you killed my aunt? That place is very rare. How did you know about it?"

Seeing that the King of Qi was now angry, Duke Gao just glanced at him indifferently.

"Jing Che, I haven't finished speaking yet, why are you so excited?"

"I did meet her yesterday. I asked her to leave Yanjing to prevent any complications, but she refused. She said she couldn't bear to leave you and wanted to see you rise to a high position before she was willing to leave."

"For so many years, Princess Yan Ning has been planning for you wholeheartedly and even cared about you more than your mother did. Don't you have any doubts about your identity?"

After Duke Gao finished speaking, the King of Qi widened his eyes.

"Uncle, what do you mean? Am I not a son of the royal family?"

"And why are you and my aunt involved with each other?"

The more the King of Qi thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

Over the years, Princess Yan Ning has indeed been very attentive to her, even more so than her mother, Concubine Gao.

Princess Yan Ning never married in her life. Even when His Majesty offered to grant her a marriage, she refused.

Could it be that...

The King of Qi was just thinking about it when he heard Duke Gao continue to speak.

"Does Jing Che really think that he is the son of that dog emperor?"

After Duke Gao finished speaking, Liu Jinshu at the back window widened his eyes in disbelief.

Then I heard the King of Qi's incredulous voice from inside.

"Uncle, what do you mean? What do you mean I'm not the emperor's son? Am I not the son of my mother and my father?"

Duke Gao said calmly, "You are wrong. You are not the son of that dog emperor."

"The child your mother and His Majesty had back then was a girl."

"When your mother was pregnant with that child, a concubine in the harem poisoned her, and the girl died shortly after birth."

"The imperial physician diagnosed that your mother would have difficulty conceiving in the future, so Yan Ning moved you to the palace."

"You will always be raised under the name of your mother."

"You are actually the child of Yan Ning and me."

The King of Qi sat on the chair, his pupils dizzying, looking at Duke Gao in disbelief.

"What nonsense are you talking about! How could I be your and Yan Ning's child!"

"You lied to me, didn't you?"

"Aren't you my uncle? Yan Ning is my aunt, how could she be my biological mother!"

"Jing Che, I know it's hard for you to believe it for a while."

"Now that the princess is dead, I ask nothing more than for you to avenge her!"

"No... Impossible, how could I not be a prince!"

Liu Jinshu was at the back of the room, eyes wide open, covering his mouth in disbelief.

She trembled slightly and murmured softly.

"The King of Qi... The King of Qi is a fake, oh my god!"

Just as she was about to take a step back, she heard the sound of dead branches breaking under her feet, and instantly the voice of the King of Qi came from the side room.

"Who?"

"Quick, go catch him and kill him!"

When the scolding sounded, Liu Jinshu's face turned pale.

She quickly squatted down, crawled awkwardly into the bushes beside her, hid behind a short tree, and dared not move.

In the wing room, the King of Qi stepped out and rushed to the back of the wing room, but it was empty and there was nothing there.

There was only one carrier pigeon, and it cooed twice.

"So, it's the carrier pigeon from Prince Qi's palace."
