"Your Highness, I was your wet nurse in the Su family. I harbored a grudge against Madam Su for withholding your monthly salary, so I threw you out on the street. I watched as you were picked up by the eldest son of the Sheng family and taken to the Sheng family pharmacy."

"Over the years, I have felt guilty and have come all the way to the capital, hoping to atone for my past mistakes... I am guilty..."

Sheng Xiyan's pupils suddenly shrank, like jade carvings, and her ears were buzzing.

Am I dreaming?

Sheng Jingheng stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the time that Madam Wang mentioned is exactly the same as the time when I found you."

Xuan Ling looked at the empress dowager in disbelief, then at Sheng Xiyan. Not to mention that they really looked alike, he used to think that all beauties had similarities.

The Queen Mother stumbled down the steps, holding a pair of Pisces jade pendants in her trembling hands. "Twenty years ago... I entrusted you to this vicious woman... Little did I know that the daughter I had always considered was a fake."

The Queen Mother burst into tears, "My child... I am your mother!"

Sheng Xiyan stepped back suddenly: "Ridiculous! My father is Sheng..."

Although I sometimes imagine what my biological parents look like, this is too sudden, right?

"You have a plum blossom mark on your shoulder, right?" The Queen Mother didn't dare to approach, fearing to scare her. "I burned that mark with a silver hairpin..."

Sheng Xiyan was struck by lightning.

Xuan Ling naturally knew the plum blossom mark on her shoulder, and he kissed it every day.

It seems that the Queen Mother is indeed Yanyan’s biological mother?

"Impossible..." Sheng Xiyan staggered, Xuan Ling holding her waist, "Then Concubine Jia..."

"Fake!" The Queen Mother suddenly pointed at Madam Su. "This vicious woman used an abandoned baby as a substitute, separating us mother and daughter for twenty years!"

Madam Su suddenly burst into laughter: "Sister, who made you stupid? You can't even recognize your own daughter!"

"Pa!" The Queen Mother slapped him.

Xuan Ling hugged the trembling Sheng Xiyan into his arms.

She looked blankly at the crying empress dowager, and then looked at the Sheng family.

Mother Sheng tearfully said, "My Lady, this is true. You are indeed the Queen Mother's daughter."

The Queen Mother cried heart-wrenchingly. For twenty years, by some strange coincidence, she had been acting as a loving mother to others.

"Yanyan..." The Queen Mother wanted to touch her but didn't dare to. She was choked with sobs and didn't know how to express her feelings at the moment.

Tears welled up in Sheng Xiyan's eyes as she looked at the Queen Mother with scrutiny and disbelief. The wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, the two strands of silver hair at her temples, and the face shape and eyes that were so similar to hers...

Suddenly, everything went dark and I fainted.

"Yan Yan!" Xuan Ling picked her up horizontally and said, "Mother, this happened suddenly. Let the Queen digest it first. I will take her back first."

The Queen Mother nodded and stroked Sheng Xiyan's hair, "Emperor, I ask you to take good care of her."

Xuan Ling nodded, "Don't worry, mother."

"Farewell, Your Majesty."

After the imperial carriage left, in the hall, the empress dowager wanted to pay her respects to Sheng's mother, but was quickly supported by Sheng's mother and Ruan Niang.

"Your Majesty, this is unacceptable."

The Queen Mother said, "It's only right. Please don't stop me. You and Doctor Sheng have treated Yanyan like your own daughter and have taken such good care of her. I can't help but feel deeply grateful. Please accept my greetings."

She bowed and gave a standard thank you gesture.

Then, holding Sheng's mother's hand, both mothers had happy smiles on their faces with mixed emotions.

Mother Sheng burst into tears and said, "If my old man knew that Xiyan had found her biological mother, he would definitely be very happy in the afterlife. He loved Xiyan the most..."

The Queen Mother nodded. From those portraits, it could be seen how much Sheng's father loved Sheng Xiyan.

Fortunately, my daughter met a good family.

"Master Sheng, please go back first and let your mother and wife stay in the palace for a few days. I want to catch up with them."

Sheng Jingheng understood that the Queen Mother's words meant that she wanted Sheng's mother and Ruan Niang to stay and persuade Sheng Xiyan, so he bowed and said, "I will take my leave."

The Queen Mother took the seat and looked at Madam Su coldly.

"Su, you dare to deceive me for twenty years? I will kill you! Come, drag her away and beat her up!"

Mrs. Su was now anxious, wailing and struggling, "Sister, I am your biological sister! Sister!"

The Queen Mother gnashed her teeth in hatred and said, "Drag him away!"

The guards dragged Madam Su out of the palace to be executed. She cried, "Sister, we are sisters from the same mother. If you kill me, how will you explain to our father and mother? Sister..."

The Queen Mother gritted her teeth and thought that even if Madam Su was cut into pieces, it would not be enough to avenge the twenty years of separation from her family.

Heart-wrenching screams were heard outside the hall, and boards fell like raindrops.

I don't know how many times he hit her, but when Mrs. Su was dying, the stick stopped by the roadside.

Concubine Jia had just received the news and rushed over. She was so scared that her legs were shaking and she was staggering as she walked.

Could it be that the fake daughter's story was exposed? Otherwise, why would the Queen Mother punish Madam Su with a cane?

She wanted to go into the hall, but she didn't dare. She clenched her hands and broke out in cold sweat.

Madam Su's face was covered in sweat. Seeing her, she forced herself to cheer up and called out hoarsely, "Luan'er, come to mother..."

Concubine Jia glanced at her with disdain and ignored her.

Madam Su yelled at the top of her lungs, "Luan'er, come here... Mother has a secret to tell you..."

secret?

Concubine Jia was desperate and tried every possible means to seek medical help, so she approached Madam Su with half belief and half doubt.

Madam Su said mysteriously, "Luan'er... come closer... Mother will tell you a way to save your life. The Queen Mother..."

Concubine Jia believed it and leaned over to listen. Before she could figure out what was going on, Madam Su suddenly pulled out the golden hairpin on her head and stabbed her neck with all her strength!
