Faced with Madam Yang's invitation once again, Aunt Chi was a little puzzled, but she just assumed that her mother wanted to discuss something with her about her birthday banquet.
She noticed something was wrong when Madam Yang dismissed her attendants.
It's just about discussing a birthday banquet; surely it's not necessary to dismiss all the servants?
"What's wrong?" Aunt Chi asked, puzzled.
Madam Yang didn't say anything, but simply took out a scroll and handed it to Aunt Chi.
Aunt Chi was completely bewildered, but she obediently took it, smiling and talking as she opened it: "What are you giving me..."
"Ah, this is Goro. Where did you get this portrait of Goro? It looks just like him," Aunt Chi said, completely oblivious to the fact that he was being painted.
The little figure in the painting seemed to be thinking of her grandson when he was a child.
She was about to say something when she looked up and saw Madam Yang sitting there, covered in cold sweat.
"What's wrong?"
Even if Aunt Chi was very oblivious, she would realize something was wrong at this moment.
Could there be something wrong with Goro's painting?
That shouldn't be the case.
Madam Yang trembled as she picked up the teacup and drank the cold tea in one gulp!
It took me a while to calm down and catch my breath.
This action made Aunt Chi extremely uneasy, and her expression turned grim: "What's wrong?"
"Elder sister, this painting is not of the Fifth Prince. My daughter-in-law, Liu, once visited the palace and met the Thirteenth Prince. The person she painted is the Thirteenth Prince."
Madam Yang stared at Aunt Chi and said, word by word.
Aunt Chi's expression changed drastically!
The thirteenth prince?
How is that possible?
Without a second thought, Madam Yang grabbed Aunt Chi's wrist, her voice sharp, though she herself didn't realize it.
"Elder sister, you can't hide it from me now. You have to tell me the truth. Who is Goro's child? Or rather... who is Goro's biological mother?"
If there really is some secret, the entire Yang family will probably be wiped out!
The royal spectacle is so lively, it could kill you!
Aunt Chi was terrified. She trembled as she said, "Wulang's biological mother was just an ordinary person. I don't know where she came from, she had no parents. Sihai insisted on marrying her, but I wasn't willing! Who knew that woman was so heartless? She ran away after giving birth to Wulang!"
This has delayed her son's marriage to this day!
Even now, thinking about it still makes me angry.
"Ran away? What do you mean by 'ran away'?"
Mrs. Yang hadn't expected this, and quickly asked again, "Do you know her name?"
"Her surname was Han, or something like that, I forget. It seems she never really said what her real name was," Aunt Chi said, trying hard to remember.
However, many years have passed, and Han never spoke of her family matters back then, keeping them very secret, so they never inquired about them.
Therefore, I really don't know her exact name.
When Madam Yang heard the surname "Han," her heart skipped a beat.
What a coincidence!
"Then take a look at this portrait..." Madam Yang held her breath and took out the portrait of Consort Chen.
These were all just drawn by Liu.
Although Liu's painting skills were mediocre, it was enough to make it clear whether it was the same person.
Aunt Chi's heart was also heavy; she gritted her teeth and opened the scroll...
The woman in the painting exudes an air of nobility; her magnificent golden crown is almost blinding. But…
"Clang!"
The scroll fell to the ground, and Aunt Chi's face turned deathly pale.
Seeing Aunt Chi's expression, Madam Yang understood.
The worst has happened!
The wife of Chi Sihai, a simple country bumpkin, is actually the Imperial Concubine Chen, who is greatly favored by His Majesty!
How absurd!
"Sister-in-law, what, what should we do? Will my Sihai and Wulang die?" Aunt Chi panicked, and tears immediately streamed down her face.
Although their family didn't do anything wrong, but...
That's the Emperor's Consort Chen!
If the Emperor knew that Consort Chen had once been their daughter-in-law and had even given birth to a child, would he let them off the hook?
No man is immune to this kind of thing!
"No, no, don't scare yourself. But this capital city... Goro absolutely cannot come!"
Madam Yang immediately made up her mind and stood up. "Send Wulang back now, before anyone sees what he looks like."
"……good."
"Big sister, this matter is of great importance, you must not tell any outsiders."
"I see."
"I'll go and discuss it with the master right now, so don't panic."
Don't panic?
How is that possible?
Aunt Chi was so panicked that her limbs went limp, and she could only walk with her arms and legs moving in unison.
When I got back and saw the children playing in the yard, my eyes welled up with tears.
What kind of mess is this?!
"Sanhe, come here." Aunt Chi called to Chi Sanhe.
Chi Sanhe rushed over, smiling broadly, and asked, "Mom, what's wrong?"
"Tell your wife to keep an eye on the children and not let them go out, especially Goro! Then all of you come in, I have something to tell you."
Aunt Chi's lips were pale, and the flesh on her face was trembling involuntarily.
Upon seeing this, Chi Sanhe was taken aback and immediately went to do it.
After the whole family had gathered in one room, Aunt Chi swallowed hard and dropped a bombshell: "Sihai, that Han woman has been found."
"real?"
Chi Sihai thought it was something bad, but he didn't expect that he would find the Han family!
He stood up excitedly, his eyes shining, and asked hurriedly, "Mother, where did you see her?"
