Han Yuehua was stunned and said angrily: "Since I married your father, we have no contact. I haven't heard any news in all these years."
Zhao Mingzhu quickly said, "Don't be angry, mother. This is what the prince asked because the prince's people are looking for him. The prince is afraid that they will find him and make a false confession, so he wants to find him in advance."
Han Yuehua's expression finally softened, and she said, "We haven't been in touch for over twenty years, and I don't know whether he's alive or dead."
Zhao Mingzhu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In this case, we can only ask the prince to send people to look for him. I hope we can find him before the prince's men do."
Han Yuehua said: "Kill him if you find him. Don't give him a chance to speak."
Zhao Mingzhu nodded: "The prince thinks so too."
Zhao Chenhan finally had the opportunity to speak: "No matter what they want to do, their purpose is to alienate Mom and Dad, causing internal strife among us, and even creating a rift with Grandpa. Mom, please don't be fooled."
Han Yuehua smiled and said, "My son is really smart. Mother won't be fooled so easily."
Just when the family was preparing to have fun again, Rong Xin walked in quickly with a slightly ugly look on his face.
"Ma'am, there are rumors again."
Han Yuehua said, "Speak."
Rong Xin looked at Zhao Chenhan.
Zhao Chenhan said, "Aunt Rong Xin, just speak frankly if you have anything to say."
Han Yuehua also said: "Yes, there is no need to avoid Han'er. He is the future master of this mansion and has the right to know everything."
Rong Xin could only say, "The latest rumor is that Young Master Han is the master's illegitimate son. In order to get Madam to agree to bring Young Master Han back, the master deliberately asked Liu Huai to do it to deceive Madam. And..."
Liu Huai was the scholar who had an affair with Han Yuehua.
Rong Xin gritted her teeth and said the rest: "They said that in order to have a suitable reason to bring Master Han back to the mansion, the master and mistress deliberately abandoned Master Lin."
boom!
Han Yuehua's mind exploded.
The previous rumors were not false.
Zhao Chenhan is Liu Huai's son, who was entrusted to her before his death.
Han Yuehua loved Liu Huai to death, but was forced to marry Zhao Jingzhou by her family. She has always been resentful and disliked Zhao Lin.
At that time, after receiving Liu Huai's dying plea, he had no time to care about anything else. He just got rid of Zhao Lin and replaced him with Zhao Chenhan.
He thought he had done it perfectly. Not only did Zhao Jingzhou not notice, he also treated Zhao Chenhan as his own son and treated him better than Zhao Lin.
Han Yuehua was originally feeling complacent.
But now, when this rumor came out, Han Yuehua suddenly woke up.
It’s not that Zhao Jingzhou didn’t notice it all these years, but that all of this was designed by him.
Otherwise, why would he care so much about this child?
When I think about it this way, everything seems to make sense.
However, Han Yuehua didn't dare to believe it.
Yagyu will never lie to himself!
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
I heard Zhao Chenhan's shout.
Han Yuehua calmed herself down, looked at Zhao Chenhan's concerned expression, and laughed at herself in her heart. Such a good child could only be Liu Sheng's, how could he be Zhao Jingzhou's?
Han Yuehua said, "I didn't expect the Crown Prince to be so disgusting. He actually fabricated such rumors in order to sow discord. Mingzhu, tell Prince Yu to investigate as soon as possible and find Liu...Liu Huai, and clear our mansion's name."
Zhao Mingzhu said, "Don't worry, mother. The prince will be able to deal with these rumors quickly."
"Um!"
Han Yuehua nodded and said, "It would be best to catch the person who spread the rumor and file a complaint against the Crown Prince in front of His Majesty."
Zhao Chenhan said, "We need to investigate with the prince and find that person as soon as possible."
Zhao Chenhan felt a little excited.
What if this isn't a rumor?
What if he is really Zhao Jingzhou’s biological son?
Doesn’t this mean that the ridicule from the past will no longer exist?
Although Zhao Chenhan is now the prince of the Zhenbei Marquisate, an adopted son is always an adopted son, and this identity cannot be changed even if he becomes the Zhenbei Marquis.
Those people can use this to attack him at any time.
But if the rumors are true...
Zhao Chenhan tried very hard to hide the anticipation in his eyes.
An illegitimate child is also a biological son.
As for whether Han Yuehua could accept it, Zhao Chenhan felt that it was no longer important.
Zhao Lin will definitely not come back.
The entire Zhenbei Marquis Mansion can only rely on Zhao Chenhan.
Is it possible to drive him away?
First of all, Zhao Jingzhou was unwilling.
Zhao Jingzhou is the real owner of the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion.
The crowd dispersed.
Han Yuehua sat there in silence.
Seeing this, Rong Xin said cautiously, "Madam, the master would not do that."
Han Yuehua sneered at first, then said: "Even if he has that idea, Liu Sheng will not agree."
Han Yuehua's eyes radiated tenderness: "Liu Sheng's love for me will never let him do that."
"but……"
Rong Xin thought for a moment and said, "What if?"
"Nothing will happen!" Han Yuehua said sternly, "Han'er is Liu Sheng's son, and he is also my son. He has nothing to do with anyone else. Do you understand?"
"Yes, I understand." Rong Xin said with her head down.
…
"This Han Yuehua is really patient."
Zhao Lin said as he flipped through the information.
Fu Liqing said: "Whether Zhao Chenhan is Zhao Jingzhou's illegitimate son or not is not the point for now, but the fact that Liu Huai has a son is basically confirmed. Otherwise, with Han Yuehua's temper, she would never handle it so low-key."
"No wonder she dotes on Zhao Chenhan so much."
Yun Zhiyi said, "I've heard many people discuss this before. Han Yuehua is so devoted to her adopted son. If this is the case, then everything can be explained."
Zhao Lin asked curiously, "She and Liu Huai have a good relationship?"
Yun Zhiyi said, "Not only was it good, they almost eloped successfully. If it weren't for the old Duke of England, they would have escaped."
"Tsk, I didn't expect Han Yuehua was also quite passionate when she was young." Zhao Lin said with a smile.
Fu Liqing rolled his eyes at Zhao Lin and said, "As long as there's no evidence, it's just a rumor. At most, it'll disgust them, but it won't do any good. What should we do next?"
Zhao Lin said: "Don't worry about it. Anyway, the prince is in front of us. We will continue to lie dormant."
Zhao Lin pondered and said, "We have money now, but we have too few soldiers, only 30,000, and even fewer we can actually mobilize. We still have to find a way to recruit more soldiers."
"Then we have to drive Yang Nantian and Chen Qifeng away first." Su Di interrupted.
Zhao Lin nodded and said, "I plan to have Yang Nantian and Chen Qifeng each lead 3,000 men to garrison in other areas. If they behave themselves, we'll let them off, but if they don't, we'll send them all to quell the rebellion."
If we suppress the rebellion, there will definitely be casualties.
The two Ma Changda brothers have already died, so what does it matter if Yang Nantian and Chen Qifeng die, right?
After receiving the order, Chen Qifeng honestly set off with the 3,000 soldiers he had trained.
He knew the role of these soldiers, and it was just right that they were not under Zhao Lin's supervision.
Anyway, the money, food and wages are all provided by the *** and are not subject to Zhao Lin.
Yang Nantian, on the other hand, was not very willing.
