Everyone's eyes fell on Wen Heng, waiting for him to open his mouth and give an answer.
Wen Heng lived up to expectations and said, "I need to ask my great aunt what you have in your hand."
"Me? I'm just a crazy old lady, I'm no longer as brave as I used to be, what else can I do?" Princess Yiyang said with a wry smile, "Heng'er, you've really confused me."
Xia Zhiliao frowned slightly, as if she had really thought of it.
Wen Heng glanced at her and smiled faintly, "Although you are nearly sixty years old, and can no longer fight on the battlefield, please don't forget that you and your wife are still famous. Many generals in the court were once your subordinates. Even after so many years, they still look at you with admiration."
Princess Yiyang nodded. "Are you saying that person wants to use me to win over the people and gain military power?"
Wen Heng nodded, "It's possible."
Madam Cui also nodded, "Master, I think what His Highness said is very true. You must not underestimate yourself."
Princess Yiyang nodded, and her eyes fell on Xia Zhiliao and her daughter, especially Xia Chen. "I can see that you haven't held a pen for so many years, and your handwriting has become rusty, but your handwriting is the same as my Yue'er. If you are not Yue'er, I really can't think of who else you could be."
"How about trying blood test to identify relatives?" said Nanny Cui.
Xia Zhiliao smiled, "Madame Cui, that's not allowed."
"Is it not allowed? I saw that it's written in the picture book."
Xia Zhiliao shook his head, "Not at all. The closest relatives can be integrated, but those who are not the closest relatives can also be integrated. With a little tricks, everything can be integrated."
Xia Zhiliao didn't tell her about blood type, for fear of confusing her.
"Zhi Liao is a doctor, so she naturally knows a lot. Let's just listen to her!" Princess Yi Yang said with a doting look on her face.
"Whether you are or not, I am going to acknowledge you as my child."
Xia Chen was flattered, "Princess, you... stop looking..."
"I won't look for it anymore. There aren't so many coincidences in the world. I believe that the cicada came to me because it was God's will, just to reunite us mother and daughter."
Xia Zhiliao was happy to see this scene.
Wen Heng also said: "Aunt Xia, in fact, a four-year-old child is precocious and can remember things. If you look at the cicadas, I believe you will also remember some things about your childhood."
Xia Zhiliao nodded, "Mom, didn't you say you dreamed of chasing a carriage? And there was blood..."
Xia Chen nodded, "But I don't know if that happened when I was a child."
"Carriage, blood?" Aunt Cui was delighted. "Isn't this a match?"
Xia Chen smiled bitterly. It was not that she was ungrateful, but she was worried that if she took the identity of the real little princess, and the little princess was alive but could not return to her mother, wouldn't that be a bad thing?
She had a guilty conscience.
"Aunt Xia, although there is no direct evidence now, there are already many side evidences. As for the most direct evidence, I'm afraid it will depend on you."
Xia Chen nodded. "You have been busy for so long for my affairs. It's really hard for you."
Wen Heng shook his head. "Aunt Xia treats me sincerely. It's just a piece of cake for me to do this. Besides, I also hope that my great aunt can find my aunt."
Xia Chen looked at Princess Yiyang and suppressed her excitement, "But I have another request."
"Go ahead."
"I would like to ask you to give me some more time so that I can make sure that I am really your daughter."
"This..." Princess Yiyang looked surprised, "I was planning to go to the palace and tell the Queen Mother about this."
"Please promise me." Xia Chen said, "If I were really your daughter, I would remember some things when I saw you."
Xia Zhiliao knew her mother's character. She looked weak, but she was actually very stubborn. "Princess, please agree to my mother's request. Have you forgotten what I do?"
Princess Yiyang's expression eased a little, "Then... I'll listen to you. When will you come to the capital?"
Xia Chen looked at Xia Zhiliao.
Xia Zhiliao said: "Wait until my third aunt gives birth to a little brother, otherwise we will be worried. Princess, if you look like us, come and see us. Brother Wen Heng knows how to get to our house."
Princess Yiyang nodded and said, "If it weren't for the fact that the general's death anniversary was approaching, I would have packed my bags and followed you. Well, I want to tell him the good news so that he can be happy in the afterlife."
Then, Princess Yi Yang did not let the mother and daughter leave, and invited them to have dinner as a practice for them.
"I'll take you to your room." Princess Yi Yang said, looking at Xia Chen with expectation, "Maybe you can remember something!"
"Okay!" Xia Zhiliao said. Revisiting the old place does help to restore memory.
Xia Chen's hand was held by Princess Yi Yang, and the warmth continued to spread from her palm to her own hand. Xia Chen could feel Princess Yi Yang's cautiousness and her joy of recovering what she had lost.
"This is your room as a child. Nothing has been moved in it. It's still the same as when we went to war. After all these years, someone just cleaned it on schedule. Do you remember?"
Xia Chen looked at the room full of exquisite things, even the fruits were fresh.
Princess Yiyang saw her expression and said, "These fruits and snacks are your favorites. I was hoping that your soul would come back to meet mother."
Nanny Cui wiped away her tears and said, "The princess is suffering."
Xia Chen looked at her apologetically, she really couldn't remember, and she had eaten everything and loved everything over the years. How could she be picky when she couldn't even get enough food?
So, she doesn't know what her tastes and hobbies are.
"It's okay. Go take another look. That wooden horse was made by your father. Do you still remember it?"
Xia Chen shook her head, but Xia Zhiliao reminded her to sit down.
"That's not good. I'm already a grown-up, please don't break my leg again."
"Go ahead." Princess Yi Yang said.
Xia Chen only sat on it twice. Although the wooden horse was old, it was still very sturdy. But she was afraid of breaking it.
"Look over there. There's your embroidery thread. You like those, not swordplay. Your father said it's a good idea. He doesn't have to worry about his daughter being in danger..."
Nanny Cui helped to open the cabinet, which was filled with embroidery threads of all kinds, including a lot of gold and silver threads, which left Xia Chen dumbfounded.
As long as their daughter likes it, they will prepare everything. This is not just embroidery thread, but a cabinet full of parental love.
Xia Chen sniffed and felt a little guilty. If she couldn't remember anything, the princess would be disappointed, right?
"It's okay, just look here again!"
