"Is there any evidence?" asked the Queen Mother. This matter was of great importance and could not be determined verbally.
Lin Yue said: "I don't have any concrete evidence, but my master can prove it."
Nanny Wang's ghost refuses to tell the truth, so it's okay to let her out and say a few words.
Queen Mother: “…” Hold on!!!
Owls can talk, so it’s okay for them to see ghosts, right?
She wants to cultivate immortality, so how could she be afraid of such a scene?
"What did Master Zhang say?"
Lin Yue said: "After Nanny Wang died, the ghost still wanted to cause trouble and leaned over Su Yingyue's body."
"My master said that ghosts generally cannot lean over a pregnant woman, unless the ghost and the pregnant woman's child are related by blood."
"Madame Wang has not dared to bring Luo Qingyu back to the Luo family for so many years. Perhaps we can find some clues by going there. I just want to ask you, do you want to investigate this matter thoroughly?"
"Or..."
The Queen Mother made a prompt decision: "Investigate, and make sure to investigate thoroughly."
Lin Yue said, "But Xiao Huaiqing has already left the capital. He must have learned the truth before Nanny Wang died, and now he has taken the initiative to leave the capital for the border. He must be thinking that even if we all have suspicions, without evidence and since he is not in the capital, we can't do anything to him."
"If possible, he wants to return to the capital with merit and consolidate his position. When he has military achievements, he can survive not only by relying on the title of the prince, and naturally he will not worry about being left with nothing after his background is exposed."
Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother said solemnly, "I know that child very well. He can't endure any hardship. If he took the initiative to go to the border, it is very likely that he knows the truth as you said."
"But don't worry, military merit is not that easy to achieve. Find someone to inform Jingyun, he will find a way."
"What I'm worried about now is Qingyu. How is he? Does he know about his own life experience?"
"It's my fault, actually. I shouldn't have let Madam Jiang take care of her back then. But it's no use saying this now. Taking good care of Qingyu is the most important thing."
Lin Yue was surprised and asked, "Do you trust your daughter-in-law so much? I thought it would take a long time to explain."
The Queen Mother smiled, took her hand, and said, "Silly girl, your mother is not senile. Besides, Master Zhang never bothered with such mundane matters. He brought it up on his own initiative, so he must have been quite confident."
"When I met Qingyu before, I felt that he was very similar to Jingyun, not only in appearance, but more in that calm and reserved aura. They were almost identical."
"At the time, I just thought that the child was raised by Jingyun, so he must look like him. Now that I think about it, it's a kind of blood relationship. Even when I met him for the first time, I felt that the child was kind and amiable."
Lin Yue said: "Since you said so, I feel relieved."
"Qingyu should have guessed it. That child is very smart, but he shouldn't be the one to say it. The elders owe him the truth, and they should give him justice."
The Queen Mother agreed: "You are right."
"Jingyun is not in the capital, so it is most appropriate for me, the Empress Dowager, to come forward on this matter."
"I'll start making arrangements tomorrow morning. Once I've sorted things out, no matter what Xiao Huaiqing does, the position of Crown Prince will never be his."
Lin Yue didn't expect the Queen Mother to be so easy to talk to, and she quickly convinced him.
She went back happily, but as soon as she entered Songyue Palace, she saw the eldest princess angrily confronting Xiao Huai on the roof.
"Come down if you can!"
"I promise I won't kill you!"
Xiao Huai was holding three little owls in his arms, and said with a smug look on his face, "Come up if you can."
The eldest princess was so angry that she was about to get a ladder. Lin Yue looked confused and asked, "What are you two doing, brother and sister?"
Seeing Lin Yue coming back, the eldest princess quickly complained: "Aunt, Xiao Huaizheng tried to snatch the little owl from me. I refused to give it to him, so he stole all three while I wasn't paying attention."
Lin Yue watched Xiao Huaizheng's play again. This guy still had a sense of shame. He said shyly: "I asked her, and she said that she helped the emperor's aunt raise the child, and it's not her own."
"I can also help Aunt Huang raise her. Why doesn't she let me? If she doesn't let me, I'll just steal it."
Lin Yue: "..."
[Good fellow, you two really are so stubborn!]
[Luckily, it was a living thing. If it was cloth or something, it would have been torn into pieces.]
Lin Yue said to Xiao Huaizheng, "You raise the odd-numbered days of the month, and your sister raises the even-numbered days. Come down to me quickly."
Xiao Huaizheng hesitated and said, "I can do it, but the emperor must promise not to beat me when I come down."
Lin Yue looked at the eldest princess.
The eldest princess gritted her teeth and said, "I promise."
Lin Yue smiled, thinking that this brat still knew how to be afraid.
Soon, Xiao Huaizheng came down.
As soon as he put the three little ones into the shack built by the palace servants, the eldest princess rushed over and started beating him up.
"You little brat, dare you threaten me?"
"Even the prince doesn't dare to do that. Are you strong? Are you capable? Are you fast?"
"Well, I haven't caught you yet."
Xiao Huai was struggling to resist, shouting, "Royal sister, you cheated, you said you wouldn't beat me."
The eldest princess sneered: "I said it, I promise."
"I promise to beat you into submission."
Xiao Huaizheng wailed: "Royal sister, you are not trustworthy!"
The eldest princess sneered, "So what? How dare you threaten me?"
"I hit you like an owl."
The three little cats were enjoying the fun and were jumping around the nest, looking very excited.
At this moment, a little squirrel quickly climbed up the pillar along the eaves. The little fellow was fluffy and had a big and beautiful tail. Lin Yue was immediately attracted and said quickly, "Stop fighting, you two. There's a new audience here."
