Chapter 349: The Name is Compassion
At this time, the autumn wind was howling, and the sun had not yet set outside the yard, but there was not much sunlight in the yard, which added a bit of gloom to the already remote and dilapidated yard.
Rong Xin brought a cloak and put it on Yun Qin's shoulders.
Yun Qin turned around to look at her and whispered, "I'm not cold."
Not only was she not cold, but her heart was burning with excitement because things had taken a turn for the better and she finally saw the opportunity to overthrow Concubine De right before her eyes.
"It's windy." Rong Xin still tied the cloak for her.
Yun Qin smiled at her and her eyes fell on the ear room where screams were still coming from from time to time.
"Master, what do you want to do?" As soon as he saw her eyes, Rong Xin guessed her intention and immediately reached out to hold her.
Yun Qin really wanted to see the nanny. "With so many people following her, nothing will happen."
As she spoke, she ignored Rong Xin's obstruction and walked to the door of the ear room. Xiao Dezi opened the door for her first.
The person inside was not tied up, but was huddled tightly in a corner. When he saw someone coming in, he let out some unclear screams, as if he was very scared.
Xiao Dezi and Rong Xin protected her behind them, fearing that the nanny would suddenly attack and hurt someone.
Yun Qin was the calmest among them. She looked at the nanny calmly. Her clothes were damp and old, and her hair looked like it had not been taken care of for a long time. She couldn't imagine how she lived alone in the secret passage.
"Don't be afraid, we are all the eldest prince's people. Do you want to see the eldest prince?" Yun Qin said in a low voice.
After hearing this, the person huddled in the corner finally stopped screaming and even raised his head to look at Yun Qin.
Yun Qin also saw her face clearly for the first time, and to her surprise, she looked very young.
This is not a nanny at all. Judging from her face, she is only about 30 years old. However, because of her old clothes and hunched body, she looks like an old woman at first glance.
"You, are you really the eldest prince's men?" Although there was still some fear in her expression, her words were very clear.
Seeing that she believed this, Yun Qin nodded and continued, "The eldest prince still remembers you, and asked us to go to the palace to pick you up. He wants to ask about his biological mother."
The woman stared at her for a while, and suddenly screamed again, "Liar, you are liars!"
Rong Xin and Xiao Dezi were so scared that they took a step back and protected Yun Qin more closely.
Yun Qin was not panicked. After she finished screaming, she continued, "I'm not a liar. Is Concubine De really the biological mother of the eldest prince?"
Although the woman was a little confused, she could still understand what people were saying. When she heard Yun Qin say this, she started staring at Yun Qin again.
"Didn't you ask the eldest prince if he still remembers her mother? This made the eldest prince very suspicious because Concubine De has not been kind to him over the years." Yun Qin continued to induce.
"Bad woman, bad woman!" The woman slammed her head on the ground in anger and looked at Yun Qin again, "Grand Prince, where is the Grand Prince?"
"He hasn't finished school yet. Haven't you seen him taking classes with the tutor?" Yun Qin replied.
The woman nodded immediately, forgetting her fear in an instant, and smiled at Yun Qin, "You are the eldest prince's person, I trust you."
Yun Qin also smiled at her and said, "Your clothes are all dirty. You don't want to see the eldest prince like this, right? I'll ask someone to change you into some nice clothes, okay?"
The woman looked down at her clothes and muttered, "Bad guys are looking for me everywhere. I was scared, so I didn't change my clothes."
Although not very conscious, he is extremely sharp and intelligent.
"Then let's change into new clothes." Yun Qin said, and motioned for the palace maid outside the hall to come in.
He was still wary of the women, but he no longer screamed out of fear.
Not long after the noise here died down, a eunuch suddenly walked in and whispered, "Madam, Kong is calling for you to pass through."
Yun Qin nodded, and then said to the woman, "I'll ask someone to prepare hot water, you can take a shower."
The woman nodded, "Okay, wash up and meet the Crown Prince!"
Seeing that she didn't react to the stress again, Yun Qin stepped out and walked towards the other side room.
As soon as he came out, the envoy Wu De with long eyebrows and eyes said, "Your Majesty must have a way. We have used so many methods, but they are not as effective as a few words from your Majesty."
Yun Qin just smiled and said nothing.
In fact, she just grasped her soft spot and knew what she wanted.
As soon as she entered the room, Kong immediately yelled, "What did you do to her!"
Yunqin smiled lightly, just like now...
Sometimes screams mean safety, while silence means danger.
"I didn't do anything to her. I just asked someone to take good care of her."
She was clearly speaking the most normal and true words, but to Kong it had another meaning.
"You, you are simply a demon. If you have anything to say to me, why torture a poor person!"
Yun Qin did not explain for herself, but sat on the couch opposite her and sneered: "Why, are you willing to tell me?"
Kong was silent for a second.
Yun Qin snorted and laughed again, with a cold look in her eyes. "You called me here, you can't just say nothing. I won't ask any more questions. You just need to tell me the identity of that woman."
Kong still didn't speak.
"Why, you don't even want to talk about this? The emperor has given me this mission, so I have to give something in return. So, I have no choice but to go..."
Before Yunqin finished speaking, Kong shouted:
"I say, I say!"
Ever since her heart wall was broken by Yun Qin last time, she was actually no longer as firm as before. Now she was anxious, so she just answered whatever Yun Qin asked.
"She was my tutor when I was in the East Palace. She followed me and served me. Her name was Ci Xin."
Yunqin was not worried about what she said. She couldn't lie about it. She just needed to let someone check it out.
"Others have harmed her to this point, and you don't want revenge?" Yun Qin asked coldly.
Kong looked in agony. "But, but it was me who harmed her! If I hadn't insisted on doing it, it wouldn't have happened, it wouldn't have happened..."
"What leverage does Concubine De have over you that would make you give her the baby in your belly?" Yun Qin asked without giving her time to catch her breath.
Kong closed his mouth again.
Yun Qin curled her lips and glanced at her fingers nonchalantly. "Things have come to this point. Even if you don't say it, can't the emperor guess it? Even if he guesses, has the emperor's attitude towards the eldest prince changed? I advise you not to be stubborn. If you keep being vague and confuse the eldest prince's bloodline, you will really harm the eldest prince!"
"I, I'll tell you, I'll tell you everything!" Kong cried out, her emotions already broken.
