Chapter 57: Fake Heiress, Really Sickly Girl (Forty-one)

Han Ding's ability is absolutely unquestionable.

When he investigated something carefully, he soon got the result.

Not to mention, Gu Yi joined in later.

Gu Yi himself has limited connections and insufficient abilities, but he has one biggest advantage -

His biological parents were the ones involved in the incident! According to what Gu's mother said, Han Ding found several pregnant women who had been to Baiyun Temple.

In addition, Han Ding also found the midwife, Aunt Feng.

"I, I moved and hid for more than ten years, why can't I hide?"

Aunt Feng mistakenly thought that Han Ding was here to kill her and silence her, so she knelt on the ground, trembling.

He said with regret, "Just for a hundred taels of silver, I had to leave my hometown with my family. I, I regretted it a long time ago!"

Han Ding is not a saintly father, he has no compassion at all.

Even if there was, there would be no sympathy for someone who sells out innocent people for money.

"What did Li ask you to do?"

Han Ding didn't bother to talk nonsense with Aunt Feng and went straight to the point.

“……” Aunt Feng blinked, with tears still on her eyelashes.

"Should we spread the news? Tell the pregnant women around?"

Gu Yi's attitude was better, but he was also very anxious.

After finding Aunt Feng, they were getting closer and closer to the truth.

"yes!"

Aunt Feng finally figured out that the person in front of her was not sent by Madam Li from the Marquis's Mansion.

Her eyes were rolling around.

Needless to say, this person is also thinking about how to benefit from this matter!

Han Ding knew this kind of smart-aleck fool all too well.

He shouted coldly, "Come here! Send this wicked woman who assisted the evildoer to Jingzhao Prefecture! Oh, and bring my name card from the Cheng'en Mansion. I must ask the Jingzhao Yin to investigate thoroughly!"

Send to the officials?

Is this weak young master a noble from the Duke's Mansion? Aunt Feng has been a midwife for more than 20 years, walking the streets all year round, and her experience is much better than that of ordinary peasant women.

In order to avoid the eyes and ears of the Marquis of Jingning's Mansion, she has been hiding from place to place all these years, while secretly paying attention to the developments in the capital.

Therefore, she also had some understanding of the powerful people in Beijing.

The Cheng'en Mansion is the maiden family of the Empress or Empress Dowager, a first-class in-law.

Aunt Feng was so afraid of a declining mansion like the Marquis of Jingning that she had to move out with her family overnight, not to mention offending the Marquis of Cheng'en Mansion.

Aunt Feng was very smart and immediately realized that Han Ding was threatening her.

She didn't dare to have any more thoughts and told everything that happened that year like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.

"There is a housekeeper in the Marquis's Mansion, who claims to be surnamed Su——"

Gu Yi nodded, then said to Han Ding, "It's Su Ma who is beside Li!"

Aunt Feng was interrupted, but she didn't dare to pause and continued, "She said that her wife is about to give birth, and she wants to find some pregnant women to go to Baiyun Temple to pray for her."

"Madame Su, she also said—"

Having said that, Aunt Feng hesitated for a moment and looked at Han Ding cautiously.

Han Ding narrowed his eyes, and there was danger in his gloomy eyes.

Aunt Feng's heart sank; she felt an inexplicable sense of crisis.

This time she really didn't dare to play tricks, and hurriedly said, "She said that it would be best if it was a woman who was pregnant with a lover."

Pregnant with lover?

Han Ding raised his eyebrows.

Although he was a man and had no children, he understood the meaning of the word.

Gu Yi also understood.

After saying this, Aunt Feng was afraid that the two young nobles would not understand the term used by women, so she explained, "It's the kind of woman with a pointed belly and a neat figure."

"I am an old woman who is used to midwifery, so I know that most women who give birth to boys have pointed bellies when they are pregnant, and they are diligent and skillful."

Aunt Feng has another saying that she never said out loud: Laziness is a girl's fault!

Those with round bellies, thick waists and heavy bodies are mostly girls.

Of course, there is no scientific basis for this.

But it was Aunt Feng who, as a midwife, had many years of experience in delivering babies.

"You don't need to explain. I know what it means to be pregnant with a good partner."

Han Ding was too lazy to listen to these so-called "experiences".

He waved his hand and concluded directly, "In other words, the nanny beside Li specifically asked you to find some pregnant women who might be pregnant with a boy?"

"right!"

Aunt Feng nodded vigorously.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"Who were they? Do you remember?"

Han Ding had a guess in his heart, but he needed evidence to support it.

"…I don't remember it very well. After all, it's been more than ten years!"

Aunt Feng smiled awkwardly, and she couldn't help but want to test Han Ding's bottom line.

Han Ding stood up and pretended to leave.

Aunt Feng hurriedly shouted, "Young Master, please stay. I have thought of it. I will try my best to remember these people!"

Han Ding did not stay. He gave Gu Yi a look and said, "I leave it to you. Find those pregnant women and verify the situation back then."

"If this good woman is still not honest, just send her to Jingzhao Prefecture. I will inform Jingzhao Yin in advance!"

Gu Yi is not smart, but he is not stupid either.

He knew how to bully others and how to bluff. "Yes! Your Highness, I will save you some trouble."

Han Ding left immediately, leaving Gu Yi to argue with Aunt Feng.

After walking a few steps away, Han Ding could still vaguely hear Gu Yi threatening Aunt Feng: "...Aunt Feng, if you are really sent to Jingzhao Prefecture, you will be exiled three thousand miles away if you don't die."

"Do you want to take your whole family to Lingnan to smell the miasma, or do you want your whole family to accompany you to the northwest to eat sand?"

Han Ding curled his lips and said, "This Gu Yi is not stupid at all!"

Since he is not a fool, Han Ding feels relieved.

When he returned to the capital, he happened to pass by a dim sum shop. The aroma of freshly-made lotus cakes filled the air. Han Ding stopped and bought some for Gu Qingcheng.

After buying some snacks, Han Ding thought about the fact that Gu Qingcheng had been taking medicine these days and her mouth must have tasted bad.

He simply went to the dried fruit shop again and bought some dried fruits, candied fruits and other snacks.

"Sir, the man in front seems to be Chen Chen from the Duke Dingguo's Mansion."

Han Ding came out of the shop carrying a big bag of snacks, and a servant beside him said sharply.

"Chen Chen?"

A little follower of the seventh prince?

Han Ding's eyes flickered, and he turned his head to take a look, and sure enough, he saw the familiar figure.

At the door of a tavern not far away, Chen Chen was holding a bag of Hu bing in his hand and talking impatiently to a young woman in gorgeous clothes.

"That woman seems somewhat familiar!"

Han Ding has an excellent memory.

Although I only caught a glimpse of Zhou Baozhu in the crowd when I returned home, it still left a memory in my mind.

"Is it her? The woman who is 'said' to be Zhou's twin sister?"

When Han Ding thought of the three words "twin flowers", obvious mockery flashed in his eyes.

Twins, Li said this without any fear of conscience! Compared with Zhou Baozhu's appearance, Zhou Qingcheng, who is as beautiful as a fairy, is there any resemblance between her and the most beautiful woman in the world? Twins are rare these days, but there are also some.

Han Ding once saw a pair of Hu Ji twins, the two women looked almost exactly the same.

Standing face to face, it was like looking in a mirror! As for Zhou Baozhu and Zhou Qingcheng, they didn't look exactly alike, they were totally unrelated.
