"The Emperor must be very fond of the Seventh Prince, and he personally held the Seventh Prince for a long time."
"Yes, father likes the Seventh Prince so much, does he still have eyes for me, the Crown Prince?"
Yan Ruqin pinched Su Jinwei's shoulders and said, "Your Highness is such a grown-up, yet you are still worried about a baby. The Seventh Prince has just been born, so it's normal for the Emperor to love him more."
"But if the Seventh Prince goes out, I will not be the only choice for Marquis Wuling." This is what Su Jinwei is most worried about. Ever since Lian Shizhao passed away, the Lian family promised to stand by him through thick and thin, but he can still feel that the Lian family is not as close to him as before.
What worried him the most was the attitude of Marquis Wuling. Marquis Wuling had been much more low-key in the past six months, and even avoided him when he visited him, which made Su Jinwei very uneasy.
"Has Master Rui'an sent back any news?"
"She said the Lian family still treats her the same as always, nothing has changed."
Yan Ruqin let go of Su Jinwei's shoulders and walked in front of him, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
"Just say whatever you want to say."
Yan Ruqin then spoke: "Your Highness, when I was hanging out with the ladies of various families, I heard some rumors about Master Rui'an."
"What rumors?"
"They said Lian Cheng is not Lian Shizhao's son." Yan Ruqin said angrily, "When they said this, I scolded them immediately. I don't know where this rumor came from. How could Lian Cheng not be the child of Rui'an and Lian Shizhao?"
After hearing what Yan Ruqin said, Su Jinwei's face turned pale: "Someone must be talking nonsense. It's getting late, you should go back and rest first."
Yan Ruqin said nothing more, turned around and walked out of the study. At the same time, the expression on her face gradually became indifferent...
At this moment, in Baiqi Mansion, Su Chenyu and Baiqi Yanqing also received the news from Zhao Zihang that Su Yu was indeed the son of Emperor Jing of Wei.
"It seems that Concubine Yuan is lucky. She gave birth to a son in her first pregnancy." Su Chenyu lit the letter on the candle and burned it.
"Su Jinwei should be the most anxious person right now." Bai Yanqing tapped the table lightly with his fingers, "Fan Heng has dug a deep pit for Su Jinwei, waiting for him to jump out."
Hearing this, Su Chenyu smiled and said, "Fan Heng really does great things quietly. My brother is destined not to be his opponent."
"Fan Heng has slowly spread the news that Lian Cheng is not Lian Shizhao's son. Su Jinwei will definitely be very upset when he learns this news. The next step is to verify it." Bai Yanqing asked, "Can Fan Heng be caught this time?"
Su Chenyu sat down on the chair opposite Bai Yuyanqing and replied with one word: "Difficult!"
For the past six months, Su Chenyu and Bai Yanqing have been paying attention to Fan Heng's actions, and naturally discovered that he had set up a trap against Su Jinwei. However, they also realized that Fan Heng was too cunning. He almost never left any evidence when he did things, and he always guided others to do things.
"By the way, has Fan Heng's background still not been found out?" This is what Su Chenyu cares about most.
Bai Yanqing shook his head, and Su Chenyu frowned: "Even Qianji Pavilion can't find out, it can't be that the three brothers and sisters of Fan Heng appeared out of thin air, right?"
"There are only two possibilities." Bai Yuyanqing's tone became more serious. "The first is that they have never had contact with anyone before and have been living in seclusion; the second is that the place where they came from no longer exists.
No matter which case it is, they can't be distant relatives of the Lian family, and I'm afraid no one in the Lian family knows their true identities."
