Ye Yuan looked at Ye Zhimiao with extreme disappointment and said, "She really isn't our daughter!"
Ye Zhimiao smiled bitterly and said, "Dad, just for that unfilial daughter Ye Wanhe, are you going to give up even your own daughter?"
Aunt Ye shed tears and said, "You are not our biological daughter!"
Yun Xiangye had barely slept the entire night, and even though she was dozing off, she was startled when she heard the news. "Aunt, how could Miaomiao not be your biological daughter?"
Aunt Ye shook her head in extreme disappointment and said, "She is not. Her mother is the widow of the Yu family who works in our cloth shop!"
Yun Xiangye suddenly remembered that when Aunt Ye gave birth to Miaomiao, everyone said that Miaomiao did not look like a newborn baby. Yun Xiangye was still a child at that time and did not know what a newborn baby was like. She was just thinking that she had a younger sister and was very happy.
Ye Zhimiao said, "Mother, you are angry with me and made up this story, right?"
Aunt Ye said, "No, not long after your mother married into the Yu family, her husband passed away. She was bullied by the Yu family and had no choice but to work in our cloth shop. I felt sorry for her and kept her.
Back then, Ye Yang was studying in the private school at Mr. Yu's house. When business was busy, your mother would pick up and drop off Ye Yang to school.
After a few interactions, Mr. Yu unexpectedly took advantage of his wife's pregnancy and fell in love with Widow Yu, and they got pregnant.
But your father was afraid of your father-in-law's family, and it would be very embarrassing for your mother, a widow, to be pregnant. You shouldn't have stayed, but your mother was reluctant to abort you and insisted on keeping you.
Your mother fell when she was seven months pregnant, and you were born with difficulty. When she was dying, she entrusted you to your father. But your father was afraid of his wife and his wife's family, so he begged us to take you in. We felt sorry for you, and since you were a daughter, we kept you at the farm for six months. After that, I pretended to give birth, and you became our daughter!
Ye Zhimiao shook her head in disbelief, "No, mother, no."
Yu Xihe stood there in a daze, "Mr. Yu... which Mr. Yu?"
Aunt Ye said, "Of course it's your father, Yu Bai. Mr. Yu, by the way, he's not Mr. Yu anymore, but the prefect. Miaomiao, since your father is the prefect, it's time for you to recognize your ancestors."
Ye Zhimiao looked at Yu Xihe in disbelief.
Yu Xihe glared at Ye Zhimiao, unable to accept it, and said, "Impossible! Impossible."
Aunt Ye looked at Yu Xihe and said, "Is that so? Just ask your father, Yu Bai. Ye Zhimiao is your biological sister. You should take her back to your house."
"Xihe." Ye Zhimiao looked at Yu Xihe, "I..."
Yu Xihe left the Ye family with her skirt lifted up, looking unacceptable.
Ye Zhimiao looked at Aunt Ye and said, "No wonder you're so partial to me. It turns out I'm not even your daughter. That's great! I don't have to be from the same clan as Ye Wanhe, who tried to kill the crown prince!"
"The Yu family will soon become very wealthy. You will definitely regret treating me like this!"
"If you want to leave the Ye family, just leave the Ye family. I don't care!"
After Ye Zhimiao said this, he ran to chase Yu Xihe.
Yun Xiangye sighed and shook her head, "Alas."
Yun Xiangye has treated Ye Zhimiao as her own cousin for fifteen years. Now that Ye Zhimiao has become so stupid and brainless, and can't tell right from wrong, she can only sigh deeply.
"Yellow leaves."
"Uncle, Aunt." Yun Xiangye went over and held Aunt Ye's hand. "Aunt, please accept my condolences."
As Yun Xiangye spoke, she leaned close to Aunt Ye's ear and whispered, "Sister has boarded the boat to Yongxing City. She will be back as soon as possible."
Aunt Ye was relieved when she heard this, but she still pretended to be sad.
Yun Xiangye comforted Aunt Ye for a while, but she was so tired that she fell asleep in Gu Yan's arms as soon as she got in the carriage.
Gu Yan gently stroked Yun Xiangye's face and took her back to Qingfeng Garden.
Just as she carried Yun Xiangye to the bed, Yin Liu came in and said, "Sir, the prince has sent someone to ask you to go to the study."
After Gu Yan covered Yun Xiangye with a quilt, he went to the study in the main courtyard.
After entering the study, Gu Ling looked at Gu Yan unhappily and asked, "Is the Crown Princess really dead or is she faking it?"
Gu Yan whispered, "It's a fake death."
Gu Ling frowned and said, "Do you think our family has it too easy? You've repeatedly deceived the emperor. You knew exactly why His Highness dismissed you, yet you still knowingly committed the offense. Do you never want to enter the court again in this lifetime?"
Gu Yan said, "Xiang Ye pleaded for mercy, and I couldn't help but respond."
Gu Ling frowned and said, "Is this all you have to offer?"
"Isn't this what I learned from you? Always obey your wife."
Gu Ling snorted, "Your mother is generous and polite, she wouldn't act like Yun Shi. Let me be frank, I will never help you enter the court."
"I know, I didn't expect you to help me."
Gu Ling looked at Gu Yan and angrily said, "This is all your fault. Now the rumors are spreading that our Gu family colluded with the Crown Princess to kill the Crown Prince. They want the young grandson to ascend the throne as soon as possible so that our Gu family can act as regents and control the puppet emperor. Are you determined to destroy the Gu family's reputation for generations of loyalty?"
Gu Yan lowered his head and said, "Can you blame me for all the nonsense being spread outside? Your Majesty and Your Highness will definitely not believe the rumors."
Gu Ling said, "Your Majesty may not believe it, but what about Your Highness? Your Highness has always been wary of our Gu family, otherwise he would not have chosen the Fu family's daughter as the Crown Princess."
Gu Yan said, "Your Highness knows better than anyone else why my sister poisoned him, and he will definitely not doubt the loyalty of our Gu family."
Gu Ling waved his hand angrily and said, "Go away and don't get in my way."
