Chapter 316: The Truth About the Concubine’s Life
The baby in the confinement period looks different every day.
If a premature baby is taken care of, he or she can gain two or three kilograms within a month.
In addition, the babies themselves look very similar. If the clothes and swaddling clothes are changed, and there is a wet nurse to cover it up, the weak mother may not notice that the child has been swapped.
Master Ling narrowed his eyes, thinking, "No wonder my little sister has no resemblance to anyone in our family."
My younger sister's appearance and personality are completely different from those of the Ling family.
Once the gap of doubt is opened, all the details that were not noticed in the past become clues.
"Your Highness Prince Ling, do you know where our little sister is?" asked Master Ling Er.
Yu Lingye did not answer Mr. Ling's question.
He said, "The old lady once said that I was very similar to her when she was young. Therefore, when she saw me, she insisted that I was her grandson."
The three members of the Ling family all widened their eyes.
Yu Lingye has said so much. If they still don’t understand, all the business they have done over the years will be in vain.
"Could it be..." The old man of the Ling family stood up, his body trembling slightly.
He couldn't believe it.
If Yu Lingye is my younger sister’s son.
So, their little sister is the current imperial concubine?
Yu Lingye said, "I look like my mother. We are about 80% similar."
He brought the Toffee's scroll.
Slowly unfold the scroll.
The three members of the Ling family looked a little dazed when they saw the person in the painting.
They also took out a scroll of their mother's youth.
Yu Lingye specifically asked them to bring the scroll of his mother's youth.
The two scrolls are placed together.
The people in the painting have exactly the same expressions, every frown and smile.
The similarity between the two can reach 90%.
It’s just that when my mother was young, she was always busy with business, so her eyes were full of sharpness and majesty.
The concubine entered the palace very early, lived a life of luxury, and was full of nobility.
However, as long as you have eyes, you can see that these two people have a close relationship.
"This is my little sister." Third Master Ling murmured, "There's no doubt about it, this is our little sister."
"My little sister looks almost exactly like my mother."
The eldest and second uncles of the Ling family frowned slightly.
There are millions of people in this world, and it is not uncommon for people to look alike.
It is a bit too early to draw conclusions now.
Yu Lingye took out a few more paintings.
One painting is a portrait of Fang Zhang.
The other few pictures are portraits of Fang Zhengtian and others.
After seeing these portraits, the three members of the Ling family were petrified.
If the concubine looks similar to her mother it is just a coincidence.
Well, it’s no coincidence that their current little sister looks so similar to this family.
Yu Lingye said, "One of the people in the portrait is Fang Zhang, my mother's biological mother, and the others are Fang Zhang's other children."
The Ling family's business spread all over Shangjing, so naturally they had heard of the concubine's family, the Fang family.
The Fang family was originally a small family.
After the daughter of the Fang family entered the palace, she was favored by the late emperor. The daughter of the Fang family became a popular concubine, and the Fang family prospered.
The Fang family relied on the power of the favorite concubine to bully men and women.
Rumor has it that the concubine of the Fang family has deep feelings for the Fang family, and the Fang family has been able to act tyrannically and make a fortune over the years all thanks to that concubine in the palace.
Now tell them,
The favorite concubine in the palace was not from the Fang family, but their younger sister.
Mr. Ling has a bad temper.
He was about to rush out to settle the score with the Fang family.
Third Master Ling pulled him back and said, "Second brother, don't be impulsive."
"My younger sister's identity is unique, so I must think carefully before acting."
"Your Highness Prince Ling, what do you think?" Third Master Ling asked Yu Lingye.
Yu Lingye said, "I have not informed my mother of this matter."
"You should have heard that my mother severed ties with the Fang family years ago."
"Mother no longer has any relationship with the Fang family. If Mother knew the truth about the swap, she would inevitably have to deal with the Fang family again. Moreover, the person Mother swapped with is still a member of the Ling family. I don't want to make things difficult for Mother."
The three people from the Ling family immediately understood what Yu Lingye meant.
Yu Lingye wanted the Ling family to express their stance.
The Toffee and the Tomboy are both in their forties and have their own families. The Tomboy is even a grandmother.
If this matter is not handled properly, a lot of trouble will arise.
What's more, my mother is old, so we need to take a long-term view.
The eldest uncle of the Ling family said, "Your Highness Prince Ling, please allow the three of us to discuss this matter."
"We'll come visit again in a few days."
The three members of the Ling family returned to the Ling family’s house in Shangjing.
Master Ling couldn't wait: "Brother, do we need to discuss this?"
"I've always disliked my younger sister. She's petty, greedy, petty, and short-sighted."
"She was obviously raised by us in a pampered way. The Ling family has never treated her unfairly. She has everything we have, and she also has everything we don't have."
"Our Ling family has always raised boys and girls equally, but she picked up these bad habits from somewhere. Not only is she extremely patriarchal, but she also named her daughters Zhaodi, Lingdi, and Pandi—names that are disgusting the moment they hear them."
"I initially thought it was just a case of good bamboo giving rise to bad shoots. She was born to collect debts. God saw that our Ling family was doing well, so he sent this troublemaker to test us."
"Turns out, she's not our little sister at all!"
"Our little sister was sent to the palace early by them. The imperial palace, what kind of place is that? It's a place where people are killed without blinking an eye. Our little sister is a young girl with no family to support her and no one to advise her. How scared must she be?"
"I'm lucky to have met the late emperor, a man of great affection. If he wasn't such a man of great affection, I would have died a long time ago."
Mr. Ling is a man of temperament.
As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes: "The Fang family threw my little sister into the palace to seek wealth and status. Now that my little sister is dead, they have nothing to lose. Now that my little sister is favored, they have all risen to prominence."
"They didn't pave the way for me, nor did they feel sorry for me suffering in the treacherous palace. Instead, they took advantage of my favor to bully me and force me to sever ties with them."
"I can't even imagine how my little sister has been able to get through these years."
Uncle Ling and Uncle Ling San also looked unhappy.
They really love my little sister.
When they don't know the truth, even if the fake is full of flaws and often gets into trouble because of their shortsightedness and pettiness, they will tolerate it without any bottom line.
They were so upset about that fake one.
On the other hand, the Fang family sucked my little sister's blood without any bottom line.
How can they bear this?
How can I bear it?
Why should I endure it!
Uncle Ling said in a deep voice, "I think we should tell Mother about this."
Third Master Ling was worried: "But big brother, mother is almost eighty years old. This news is like a bolt from the blue for her. I'm afraid for her..."
Mr. Ling San didn't dare to say anything more.
Mr. Ling San's words successfully silenced Mr. Ling Da and Mr. Ling Er.
At the same time.
Prince Ling's Mansion.
Xie Yingmian also had this concern: "The old lady of the Ling family is so old, she can't stand big stimulation."
"Do you think those three from the Ling family will just let it go?"
