After the eldest princess took the three little owls to build a nest.
Lin Yue took Bai Changshi to see Luo Qingyu.
When they were about to enter the door, Bai Changshi suddenly called Lin Yue and said, "Princess, regarding the prince's background..."
Lin Yue turned around and deliberately asked, "Even you are starting to doubt it?"
Bai Changshi nodded and said seriously, "Think carefully about what Nanny Wang has done over the years."
"Even though Qingyu is her son, she instinctively hates him. She ignored him when he was sick as a child, and she turned a blind eye to him when he grew up."
"No matter how filial Qingyu is to her, she is worthless in her eyes. How could there be such a mother in the world? If she were her biological child, and saw Qingyu's success, she would think that she is the one who will enjoy the happiness and would be more polite to Qingyu."
"But that's not the case. Instead, she intensified her attacks on Qingyu and hurt her. After thinking about it, the only truth I can come up with is the child swap."
Lin Yue said: "When the prince was born, didn't you send anyone to guard him?"
Bai Changshi fell into recollection and quickly said, "When Princess Cui gave birth, many people surrounded her. The prince was not at home at that time, so it was Madam Jiang who was in charge."
"But after giving birth to the Crown Prince, Princess Cui suffered a sudden hemorrhage and passed away shortly afterwards. That night was a chaotic one, and the wet nurse we had originally hired ran away from the mansion out of shock. Nanny Wang was at the mansion awaiting delivery, so the Crown Prince was sent to her."
"When I went to pick him up at dawn, Nanny Wang had already given birth. She said the princess had just passed away and she didn't want to disturb anyone. The prince was sleeping in the cradle, wrapped up tightly."
"The floor where she lived was filthy, and there was an unmade baby crying on the bed. I leaned over to take a look. The child was skinny and dark-skinned, and the stains on his face hadn't been cleaned off."
"No matter who saw it, no one would think that the child on the bed was the prince. I asked the new wet nurse to take Xiao Huaiqing away."
"About two months had passed since this incident, and Nanny Wang had recovered. The new wet nurse had inexplicably run out of milk, so Nanny Wang volunteered to feed the prince. From then on, she became his wet nurse."
Lin Yue asked, "Did anyone who saw the child on the first night have any doubts later?"
Bai Changshi shook his head and said quickly, "Actually, there is another suspicious point that we all overlooked at the time."
"Princess Cui suffered heavy bleeding after giving birth to the Crown Prince. The midwife and the imperial physician were busy trying to save her, so the Crown Prince wasn't well cared for and must have been quite dirty."
"But when I went to pick him up the next day, the child was clean and fair. It was obvious that he had been groomed."
Lin Yue nodded in understanding. If the birth took place at night, the situation would be critical and there would indeed be omissions.
However, Xiao Huaiqing, as the male protagonist of the book, actually has a hidden script, which Lin Yue did not expect.
She said to the system: [I can sense the hidden plot lines of everyone else, except Xiao Huaiqing's. He does have some luck.]
System: [His identity is set to be noble. Even if he is not born as such, he will become so later on. Therefore, there is no hidden plot line.]
[But he's gone now. You have to be careful. Xiao Huaiqing is very difficult to kill.]
Lin Yue: [……] She has something sweary to say!
[If he wasn't born, will he be in the future? If he wasn't born now, wouldn't he find another benefactor who could help him change his identity?]
System: [Highly likely]
Lin Yue: "Grass!"
Bai Changshi was filled with shame: "Princess... you are right to scold me. It is all my fault."
Lin Yue: "..."? ?
Luo Qingyu, who was leaning against the door frame, walked out lightly and shouted, "Uncle Bai, the princess is just angry, she's not scolding you."
When Lin Yue saw that Luo Qingyu was able to stand, a hint of relief flashed in her eyes.
As expected of someone she brought up, his brain works better than most people.
She smiled and said, "Qingyu still understands me."
"Then you two uncles can chat, I'll go back first."
"Well, if you have any questions, just ask the palace maid to call me. I'm always available."
After Lin Yue finished speaking, she turned and left.
Bai Changshi didn't know how to face Luo Qingyu. He felt that he was also wrong for the replacement of the crown prince. Therefore, when he saw Luo Qingyu injured like this, although he was worried, he felt more guilty.
Luo Qingyu heard Lin Yue's thoughts and knew that Xiao Huaiqing was no simple person.
From childhood to adulthood, any mistakes he made would be avoided by some coincidence. When I was young, I just felt lucky for him. Now when I think about it, there are so many coincidences that it seems natural.
As a result, Xiao Huaiqing would never feel that he had done anything wrong. Instead, he felt that it was the fault of the current situation, the fault of the people around him, and the other party.
But is this really a good thing? I had many opportunities to correct it, but in the end, it was all in vain.
Luo Qingyu did not envy that. He invited Bai Changshi into the house for tea, and his attitude remained as respectful as usual.
Bai Changshi felt uncomfortable all over and wanted to stand up and explain himself several times, but now that Xiao Huaiqing was gone and there was no one to confront him, it was like he was just telling a story and he was not sure whether Luo Qingyu would believe it?
After hesitating for a long time, Bai Changshi said, "Don't be too sad about Nanny Wang. She may not be your biological mother."
"Also, I came here to tell you that the prince has left the capital. You don't need to return to the palace to serve. Just follow the princess well."
Luo Qingyu said: "I know, Uncle Bai, don't worry."
Bai Changshi was embarrassed, and he didn't know how to change Luo Qingyu's identity back to her original position, so he said: "The princess has already known the truth, and the emperor has also informed the prince. Everything will be fine."
