The emperor became suspicious after listening to Master Li's performance during the Ghost Festival in July and "accidentally" discovering the injury on Master Li's foot.
Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will take root and sprout.
The emperor of Da Qi was not incompetent. He did not notice anything wrong in the past few years, mainly because the fake queen acted too convincingly and luckily escaped time and time again, leaving the emperor with no suspicion.
But now that suspicion has arisen, the fake queen is no longer so lucky.
She had a hard time in the palace.
When the three of them, mother and son, were fighting against the fake queen, those who wanted to take advantage of the situation naturally found an opportunity.
Concubine Shu and the Second Prince have begun their plans more and more boldly.
…
Soon, it was September.
"Oh my, that brat Cheng Jinxing, I'm afraid he can't find his way to the capital!"
"Old man, why did you let him go in the first place? How did you manage to be a mother? You picked up Jinxing, didn't you? You picked him up, didn't you?"
Cheng Shun has been a little angry recently, and his anger is directed at Gu Xuelan.
Because the martial arts exam was about to begin, and his second grandson had not returned yet.
At the beginning, it was Gu Xuelan who directly agreed to it, so Cheng Shun naturally got angry at Gu Xuelan.
"Dad, calm down. There are only a few days left. Jinxing must be on the way."
Cheng Yue comforted her.
"Aren't you going to look after your shop? What are you doing standing at home? Get out of here, get out of here!"
Cheng Shun waved his hand and didn't want to talk to anyone.
"Old man, stop scolding the old lady. Under the old lady's management, Ruyi Manor in the capital has seen good business. The old lady is still busy. Why don't you let her do some work?"
Jiang helped and said a few good words.
"That's right, Dad! It's no use scolding my sister-in-law. Brother Wu said he has asked someone to watch at the city gate, and as soon as Jinxing arrives, he will be taken back immediately!"
Ji Feifei also said.
"Second sister, let me tell you, when Ning's kid grows up, and the one in your belly grows up, you must not follow your eldest sister-in-law's example, otherwise, you won't be able to raise these two children!"
Cheng Shun's tone towards Ji Feifei was slightly better.
Because Ji Feifei is pregnant again, the old people all hope to have more children and grandchildren.
"Okay, Dad! Then I'll accompany my sister-in-law to Ruyi Village. My sister said there's a new umbrella cover, and I want to go and see it. Right, Ayue?"
Ji Feifei winked at Cheng Yue as she spoke.
"Yes, yes. Dad, then I'm going to Ruyi Manor with my elder and second sisters-in-law!"
Cheng Yue nodded quickly, then walked forward and took the arms of her two sisters-in-law.
"Go, go! Go quickly! Ayue, don't worry, I'll look after the child with you!"
Jiang's way.
"Just spoil them! When the children grow up, let them go. Who will you cry to?"
Cheng Shun glared at Jiang angrily.
"Hahaha, my grandchildren are all filial, and I've never scolded them! When the time comes, they will definitely miss me, an old woman, and not you, a damn old man!"
Jiang laughed and said, not afraid at all.
"Hmph! I don't want to talk to you, old hag. I'm going to go see Jin Yan!"
Cheng Shun snorted twice, stood up, put his hands behind his back and went to Cheng Jinyan.
"The old man is gone! I'm going to see my darling grandchildren too!"
Jiang went to see the children with a smile on her face.
At this moment, Cheng Jinxing was following Xue Hanyu on the canal to the capital. Accompanying them were three bandits: Sun Erhu, Sun Sanniang and Biaomei.
