Mrs. Ye asked directly, "Princess Rui, what exactly do Prince Rui and you want to know?
"We are all uneducated and uncultured people, so there is no need for you to keep beating around the bush like this.
“I think it’s better for us to talk it out directly.
"What do you think?"
Princess Rui didn't expect Mrs. Ye to say this, but she also felt that what she said made sense.
So she said directly: "You should have heard my sister say that in all the years since the prince and I got married, we only had one daughter, but she died shortly after birth. Since then, we have been childless."
Mrs. Ye nodded when she heard this.
Her thoughts at this moment were the same as Boss Ye's. They both thought that Prince Rui and Princess Rui must have taken a liking to Qingtian and wanted to adopt her as their daughter.
Of course, who wouldn’t like Qingtian, such a well-behaved and smart child!
What's more, not only does she look very similar to Princess Rui, but she also saved Princess Rui's life this time.
Mrs. Ye felt that if she were the Princess of Rui, she would also want Qingtian to be her daughter.
But even if the other party was the prince's palace, she would never give up Qingtian.
At most... at most, let them recognize a godparent...
Just when Sister Ye's mind was full of these thoughts, she heard Princess Rui continue: "But in fact, we just found out some time ago that our daughter did not die that year.
“It’s hard to explain the misunderstanding in just a few words.
"But according to the results of the investigation sent by the prince, our daughter is very likely still alive, but was adopted and taken away by someone who is unaware of the situation..."
Hearing this, Mrs. Ye's head buzzed, as if something exploded inside, and she couldn't hear what Princess Rui said next.
She was silent for a while, and suddenly, she didn't know where she got the strength from, she stood up and quickly chased in the direction where Boss Ye had just left with Qingtian.
Princess Rui had just said half of her words when Mrs. Ye suddenly ran away.
She could only watch helplessly, unable to even catch up.
Mrs. Ye chased for a long time and met Prince Rui who was walking back.
Seeing that Prince Rui seemed to be about to speak, Mrs. Ye didn't want to listen and didn't dare to listen at all.
She simply pretended not to see anyone and ran forward on her own.
“…” Prince Rui had just opened his mouth when the person in front of him disappeared. He had no choice but to continue walking back.
Anyway, there are so many people in the Ye family, and at worst there is General Ye Qingshan, so there will be no problem finding the person.
At this point, everyone was nervous and exhausted after a night of tension, and the child was frightened. From any perspective, it was not appropriate to talk about this matter hastily under such circumstances.
It would be better to go back to the capital first, and find an opportunity to formally talk about it after everyone has recovered.
Even if Qingtian is really not his biological daughter, he wants to discuss it with his wife and it would be nice to adopt her as his goddaughter.
Thinking of this, Prince Rui quickened his pace and returned to Princess Rui.
Princess Rui looked a little flustered. When she saw him coming back, she immediately grabbed him and said, "Your Highness, I just told Sister Ye that Qingtian might be our biological daughter. But she couldn't accept it and ran away.
"Don't let anything happen in this desolate mountain!"
"Ah?" Prince Rui was stunned, "You told her?
“No, you also think Qingtian might be our daughter?
“When did you come up with this idea?
"I've been so careful to keep this from you, afraid you wouldn't be able to accept it after you knew..."
The couple finally exchanged ideas frankly.
After hearing that Qingtian had a birthmark on the sole of her foot, Prince Rui became even more excited.
"When you gave birth to your daughter, the midwife brought the baby out and I saw the birthmark on the bottom of the baby's foot!
"That's why I just wanted the doctor to take off Qingtian's shoes and socks for a checkup.
“I didn’t expect that Ye Zhuangshi would think I had bad intentions.
"If I could see the birthmark with my own eyes, I would definitely be able to tell whether Qingtian is our daughter!"
Prince Rui became more and more excited as he spoke. Before, it was just a low whisper between husband and wife, but by the end, he had unconsciously raised his voice.
"Uncle, what are you talking about?" Qin Hexuan, who had just walked over, was stunned when he heard this.
The food and water in his hands fell directly to the ground.
When Princess Rui saw Qin Hexuan, she waved for him to come to her side.
"Hexuan, good boy, no wonder you've been so fond of Qingtian since you met her, and have always wanted to protect her and pamper her.
“If Qingtian is really the daughter of your uncle and me, then she is your cousin.
"You will instinctively protect her and like her!"
"Aunt, but didn't mother say..." Qin Hexuan was stuck again at this point.
He even suspected that his aunt was so sad about losing her child that when she saw Qingtian, who looked like her, she thought he was her own child?
No wonder his mother had always told him not to bring Qingtian to his aunt. It turned out that she was worried about this?
Princess Rui was still talking non-stop, but Prince Rui, who was standing beside her, saw what Qin Hexuan was thinking and quickly helped to explain, "Hexuan, there is something we have never said.
"The daughter of your aunt and I wasn't actually dead, and we've been trying every possible way to find her during this time.
"But we couldn't confirm whether she was still alive, so we didn't tell any relatives or friends about this, for fear that they would be disappointed.
