Little Phoenix followed the hairpin into the courtyard of the Prime Minister's residence.
Lian'er was carrying the medicine toward the Prime Minister's wife's room.
The hairpin stopped beside Lian'er and fell to the ground with a loud thud.
Lian'er picked up the hairpin and looked around: "Whose hairpin is this? How did it end up here? This hairpin looks kind of familiar."
When Xiao Feng arrived, she saw the hairpin in Lian'er's hand and exchanged a glance with Lian'er.
Could it be her?
But how is that possible?
To prevent any errors, we should take the hair of both mother and daughter to the shrine for testing.
Lian'er saw Qiuqiu and said, "Greetings, Princess of Ten Thousand Kingdoms! Are you here to find this hairpin?"
Chiu Chiu: "I'll keep this hairpin for now. I'll give it to you when the truth comes out!"
Lian'er: "The truth has come out? What truth has come out?"
Chirp: "You'll find out when the time comes."
Xiao Feng took the hairpin and casually plucked a strand of hair from Lian'er's head.
Little Phoenix left.
Lian'er bowed to them and said goodbye.
Xiao Feng stealthily appeared in the Prime Minister's wife's room and took two strands of her hair.
Little Phoenix found a treasure for verifying kinship in the Divine Pavilion.
They placed the hair of the Prime Minister's wife and Lian'er into the treasure.
The treasures circulated rapidly.
After spinning around a few times, their hair became intertwined.
Xiao Feng and Qiu Qiu clapped their hands excitedly: "They've melted! They've melted! They're mother and daughter! Lian'er is Linglong!"
Chirp: "But Lian'er is their daughter-in-law. That means Lian'er married her own brother?"
Xiao Feng took out another hair and said, "Master, this is the Prime Minister's son's hair. Maybe his son isn't his biological son."
Chirp: "But the Prime Minister's wife has no hair. How can we verify that?"
Xiao Feng took the hair out of her hand again and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Master, I've been prepared for this for a long time."
Chiu Chiu patted Xiao Feng and said, "You're really something!"
The two of them put the two strands of hair in front of them into the treasure.
The treasure spins.
Chirp Chirp Little Phoenix stared wide-eyed at the hair inside the treasure.
A long time passed, but the two strands of hair did not fuse together.
The two stared at each other, wide-eyed.
This is both good news and bad news.
I wonder how the Prime Minister and his wife will feel after hearing this.
With a heavy heart, Xiao Feng arrived at the Prime Minister's residence.
When the Prime Minister's wife heard that Princess Wanguo had arrived, she mustered all her strength to sit up.
As soon as Qiuqiu entered the room, the Prime Minister's wife asked impatiently, "Has my daughter been found?"
The Prime Minister's wife looked at Qiuqiu with a droopy face and a heavy heart, and sighed.
“I knew we wouldn’t find it. We’ve been searching for so many years with nothing to show for it. How could I possibly expect anything from a child?”
Qiuqiu quickly comforted the Prime Minister's wife, saying, "She's been found. Don't be sad. Your daughter has been found!"
A light immediately ignited in the eyes of the Prime Minister's wife.
She exclaimed excitedly, "Found her? Where is she? I want to see her!"
Xiao Feng helped the Prime Minister's wife, who was about to get up, and said, "Madam, besides this good news, there is also bad news. I don't know if you can bear it."
The Prime Minister's wife frowned and said, "What could be worse news than not being able to find our daughter?"
Xiaofeng said, "Your son might not be your biological child."
The prime minister came over, heard it, and burst into laughter.
Chirping Little Phoenix looked at him in confusion and said, "Prime Minister, did you hear me correctly? Why are you laughing?"
Prime Minister: "Of course I heard correctly. My daughter has been found, of course I should be overjoyed!"
Chiu Chiu: "But the son isn't yours. Shouldn't you be sad?"
The Prime Minister's wife smiled and said, "Yes, our son is adopted. Ever since we lost our daughter, I have been depressed every day. The Prime Minister was afraid that I would be sad, so he found someone to adopt a child for me. He said that seeing the child would gradually make me feel better."
The Prime Minister said, "Yes, my wife is going crazy with longing for a child. She's anxious every day if we don't let her have one."
The Prime Minister's wife touched Qiuqiu's hand and said, "Where is my daughter? I need to see her! I must go now!"
Chiu Chiu: "No need to go. She's at the Prime Minister's residence."
The Prime Minister and his wife exclaimed in surprise, "Right here in our house?!"
Xiaofeng: "Yes. She's right next to you; you see her every day."
The Prime Minister's wife said, "Who is she? Tell me quickly, who is she? What is her name?"
Chiu Chiu said, "Lian'er, her name is Lian'er. Lian'er is Linglong."
With tears welling in her eyes, the Prime Minister's wife said, "How...how could this be?"
Xiao Feng: "Madam Prime Minister, do you remember if your daughter had any special features? Like a birthmark or something?"
Without hesitation, the Prime Minister's wife replied, "Yes, I'll go and confirm it right away!"
Prime Minister: "Someone come here! Summon Lian'er!"
"yes!"
Before long, Lian'er arrived at the Prime Minister's wife's bedroom.
Lian'er said respectfully, "Greetings, Princess of the Kingdom! Father, Mother, what is it that you summoned me here for?"
The Prime Minister's wife composed herself and said, "Lian'er, I'd like to have a glass of water."
Lian'er hurriedly poured water for the Prime Minister's wife and handed it to her.
"Mother, please have some water."
The Prime Minister's wife pretended to accidentally spill water on Lian'er's clothes.
Lian'er ignored herself and kept asking the Prime Minister's wife, "Mother, are you alright? Did you get burned?"
The Prime Minister's wife wiped Lian'er's clothes with a handkerchief: "Your clothes are all wet, let me wipe them for you!"
Lian'er said, "Lian'er is fine. Mother, you don't need to worry."
The Prime Minister's wife rolled up Lian'er's sleeve and saw a black birthmark on Lian'er's arm. The Prime Minister's wife immediately burst into tears.
The Prime Minister and his wife looked at Lian'er with teary eyes and said, "Our daughter! Our daughter!"
For a moment, Lian'er was startled.
Lian'er said, "Father, Mother, I'm fine. It's just a little water spilled, I'm alright!"
The Prime Minister's wife took Lian'er's hand and said, "It's all my fault! I should have noticed sooner! You also love osmanthus cake, lotus seed porridge, and grapes. How could I have been so stupid as not to recognize you sooner?"
Lian'er looked at Qiuqiu with a bewildered expression and asked, "What exactly is going on?"
Chiu Chiu explained, "You are their long-lost daughter, Linglong!"
Lian'er was even more shocked than the others, exclaiming, "What?"
The Prime Minister wiped away his tears and said, "For so many years, Lian'er has been filial and respectful to us; she's a good child. But we've focused all our attention on searching for Linglong outside, and haven't cared for or looked after you at all!"
The Prime Minister's wife also cried, saying, "Lian'er, all these years, I don't know how much suffering you've endured. It's all my fault! It's all my fault!"
Lian'er hugged the Prime Minister's wife and said, "Mother, I don't blame you, I really don't blame you!"
