This way.
Ye Qingcheng helped the Empress Dowager back to her palace.
After the two sat down...
The Empress Dowager looked at Ye Qingcheng's stunning beauty with a smile on her face.
"Qing'er, my dear girl! I never imagined that you would be even more beautiful than your mother."
"Grandmother, my memory of my mother is very vague. Was my mother beautiful?"
"Hmm! Beautiful, but not as beautiful as you! Hehe!" The Empress Dowager said, laughing happily.
"I'm sorry, Grandmother. Today is your birthday banquet, but I have spoiled your mood because of me. I really shouldn't have done that."
Ye Qingcheng spoke with a face full of self-reproach.
"Silly girl, this whole thing was started by that illegitimate daughter, how can you be blamed?"
"Grandmother, do you believe in Qing'er? Is it really Qing'er?"
"Of course, how could I not recognize my Qing'er?"
"Grandmother, why are you so sure?"
"Hehehe! Although I haven't seen you for many years, the temperament between your brows is exactly the same as when you were a child, and there is also your unique fragrance."
Ye Qingcheng was deeply moved after hearing this.
Even an empress dowager who has no blood relation to her can tell that she is Ye Qingcheng.
However, the original owner's biological father had doubts about her and refused to admit it.
"Grandmother, how fortunate I am to receive your love and affection."
"Silly child, I promised your mother that I would take good care of you."
"Thank you, Grandmother. You are so kind to Qing'er."
"Girl, in a few days, I will be going to Miaoyin Temple to worship Buddha for three days. Would you be willing to accompany me?"
"Miaoyin Temple?"
"kindness!"
"Qing'er is willing."
"Very well, I will have someone inform you the day before you are to depart."
"Yes, Grandmother."
"Alright! You can go now! The banquet isn't over yet, so go and have something to eat to fill your stomach."
"Grandmother, let Qing'er stay with you!"
"No need, I'm tired and want to rest. You may leave!"
"Yes, Grandmother."
After Ye Qingcheng finished speaking, she turned and left the Empress Dowager's palace.
This side of the Summer Palace.
at this time.
The Emperor is no longer here.
He seemed to have drunk a few cups of wine before leaving, leaving the officials to continue drinking.
The crowd's enthusiasm was not dampened by the previous controversy surrounding Ye Qingcheng's identity.
After all, this matter had nothing to do with them, so the officials continued to eat and drink as usual, raising their glasses and chatting happily.
Qin Mohan and Ye Jingyu sat down to the side, the father and son quietly waiting for Ye Qingcheng to return.
However, the Fourth Prince, the Sixth Prince, and Princess Wenning, seeing that the father and son didn't seem very interested, took the initiative to approach them and chat.
certainly.
Aside from Qin Mohan and his son, whose faces were somber, Ye Qingyao was also sitting with the family.
"Yao'er, you acted impulsively just now."
"Father, do you still think that bitch is Ye Qingcheng?"
Ye Guoxiang pursed his lips: "She is indeed completely different from the original Ye Qingcheng. I had my doubts before, but the way she looks is no different from that wretched daughter Ye Qingcheng."
"Father, do you mean she really is Ye Qingcheng?"
"I'm afraid that's true. After all, it's been six years, and it's possible that she's changed."
"No... I don't believe it. With her crazy and stupid appearance, how much could she change? It's only been six years. Do you think she could become as proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting as my daughter?"
“That’s right, Father. I also think that my elder sister is right. In my opinion, she is definitely not my second elder sister.”
“My lord, now that Yao’er has said that, I do think her identity is indeed suspicious. That little slut, we’ve watched her grow up, we know what she’s like.”
"Yes, Father."
"So what do you want?"
"Make her return to the Duke's mansion and force her to reveal her identity."
"Force? How do you force them?"
"Don't we still have the Wen family's memorial tablet? Look how nervous that little bitch is about the Wen family. As long as we take advantage of that, we won't have to worry about that little bitch not giving in."
"That's right."
Upon hearing this, Ye Guoxiang frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, then shook his head without expressing his opinion.
This way.
Ye Qingcheng is back too.
The officials, who were enjoying their drinks, fell silent when a stunning figure entered the hall and turned to look at Ye Qingcheng.
Ye Qingcheng seemed to be a beautiful sight at this moment, making them unable to look away.
After entering the hall, Ye Qingcheng ignored everyone's gaze and went directly to the spot where her family of three had been sitting.
"Mother, you're back."
When Ye Jingyu saw Ye Qingcheng return, he stood up and rushed into her arms.
Ye Qingcheng gently patted Ye Jingyu's head.
"Princess Consort Han, I never imagined that such a stunningly beautiful face would be hidden beneath your veil." Princess Wen Ning said with a smile.
Ye Qingcheng smiled and said, "Princess Wen Ning, you flatter me. No matter how beautiful a face is, it is just a shell and will eventually age and fade."
"Good, good, sister-in-law, you are indeed extraordinary. Your words have impressed my brother greatly." Qin Mohua praised with a hearty laugh.
"Fourth brother, you flatter me."
After Ye Qingcheng finished answering, she looked at Qin Mohan.
"You've been waiting for me here?"
Qin Mohan nodded.
"Where is the Empress Dowager?"
