The evil woman of the Xiao family that Master Li mentioned is the current wife of the Duke of Zhenguo.
Shanshui thought about it, but still didn't tell Cheng Yue that her palm lotus could save her life.
After all, if this matter were to become known to others, it would be a trouble for Cheng Yue.
Between his twin brothers and his own woman, his choice was obvious.
Moreover, the prince now has Doctor Long to treat him, so there shouldn't be any big problems.
Didn’t they say that Doctor Long had already gone to look for medicine?
He would discuss it with A Yue when he got back. If the medicine could not be found from the prince's place, he would take Lian Xin to try it again without telling anyone. This would also be a guarantee for A Yue.
Shanshui was silently planning in his mind.
It’s not that we don’t care, but we have to ensure Cheng Yue’s safety.
Cheng Yue only told him such a magical thing. Only the two of them knew about it in the world. It was a secret between the two of them, and he would not tell anyone else.
"Kid, why don't you say anything? With your intelligence, you should have noticed something's wrong with the Ming family!"
Master Li was distracted for a moment, then came to his senses and saw Shanshui in a trance, so he asked.
"I thought something was amiss with them, but I didn't realize I was their target at first. A while ago, when A-Yue nearly lost her baby, I suspected Ming-Zhu was actually helping me. Um, besides the current wife of the Duke of Queenstown, does anyone else know of my existence?"
Shanshui came back to his senses and asked.
"No. If the Chen family were still alive, they would have had some suspicions. Unfortunately, all the Chen family members were killed in the fire."
Master Li shook his head.
She looks exactly like her sister, and they have only been apart for seven years. If her sister wanted to imitate her, it would be easy. Even her biological father would not be able to tell them apart. Of course, if her biological mother were still alive, she might be able to tell who is who.
Unlike Shanshui and the prince, the two sisters cannot be distinguished by birthmarks. They have no moles or birthmarks. Of course, it is easy to distinguish them now because she has been disfigured.
"Chen family?"
Shanshui was stunned.
"They were the family that the evil woman in the palace had married before. They were a moderately wealthy family, and their eldest son had taken the second place in the imperial examination, and was chosen as a son-in-law by the Duke of Zhenguo. But, on the night you were born, the whole family was wiped out!"
Master Li felt a little complicated.
At the beginning, it was she who insisted on not returning to the Xiao family. It was she who easily believed her sister and stayed at her sister-in-law's house to give birth.
If she rented a small courtyard for herself and hired two maids to take care of it, she would not bring trouble to the Chen family.
"This isn't your fault. She wanted to replace you, so she would have made everyone in this world who could distinguish you disappear. Even if you hadn't gone to the Chen family to give birth, the Chen family would have been in trouble because of her ambition."
Mother and son are connected by heart. Shanshui immediately understood what Master Li was thinking and comforted him.
"well!"
Master Li sighed.
"What are your plans? To expose her conspiracy, or..."
Shanshui looked at Master Li and asked.
"I'm already in this state. What good will it do to expose her conspiracy? Will it make him let me stay by his side? Over the years, there are only two things I want to do: find you, and make sure that wicked woman from the Xiao family and that evil woman in the palace die a miserable death! But now that the Crown Prince is critically ill, I..."
As Master Li spoke, tears began to fall again.
Both children are her flesh and blood. In the past few years, she was only worried about the mountains and rivers outside. In the past two years, she also had to worry about the prince.
