Chapter 191: The Valuable Jade Bracelet
When Kong Xiyan heard what the queen said, she knew she was not lying.
Because this is exactly what Kong Xiyan is worried about.
Should I send Zhong Yangyang back? Should I let her stay in Xing Erluo? Should I let her follow the path a princess should take, trapped in a tower for life, becoming a symbol of a country instead of an independent person?
While Kong Xiyan was thinking, the queen had already set her eyes on her again: "What should I call you?"
Kong Xiyan did not answer the Queen's question, but directly asked: "Have you found the person who replaced your daughter?"
"Not yet." The queen shook her head. "The original group of people who cared for the princess were replaced one after another many years ago. The three most likely people are: one is missing, one died in a car accident, and another passed away from illness three years ago."
"So there's still no news about the real culprit behind this?" Kong Xiyan asked, "Where's Prince Lucius?"
Hearing Kong Xiyan directly ask about Prince Lucius, the Queen was even more surprised. After recovering from her shock, she shook her head and said, "Although I also suspected him, but... the Princess is involved in the fate of Xing Ertang after all. Even if it is him, he would not do such a thing that would harm the country."
Hearing the queen say this, Kong Xiyan did not refute, but after careful consideration, she said two words: "Daughter."
"What?" The queen didn't understand what Kong Xiyan meant.
"Treat me as your daughter, your biological daughter." Kong Xiyan looked at the queen with a cunning look: "Don't tell anyone who I am, but ask everyone to treat me like a princess, including Princess Winnie."
"You..." The queen was stunned, and then she realized what Kong Xiyan was going to do. Her eyes were full of emotion: "I originally just wanted you to help me protect my daughter, you... are you really going to do this?"
"As long as they help me pretend to be her, she will be safe." Kong Xiyan lowered her eyes.
If it weren't for Yangyang, she wouldn't have done this.
It's such a loss to get involved in this business!
Especially when she knew that this so-called investment promotion was just a business disguise to recruit a prince consort for the princess, she felt even more at a loss.
If Zhong Yangyang returns to Xing Erxuan and becomes the eldest princess, and Zhong Yongan has always treated Zhong Yangyang like his own sister, will Zhong Yongan be Xing Erxuan's son-in-law?
Huh… it’s weird just thinking about it!
If Zhong Yangyang doesn't become the eldest princess of Xing Erluo, and Princess Winnie continues to be the eldest princess, there is no hope for her, judging from the fact that she and the eldest brother almost came to blows when they first met at the airport.
This is really a losing business...
Tsk tsk tsk.
"But the real murderer has not been found yet. If you are in danger because of this incident, I..." The queen looked at Kong Xiyan with concern.
Meeting the queen's eyes, Kong Xiyan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "You two... really are mother and daughter..."
Both of them have a lot of problems of their own, yet they are idiots who always think about others!
Forget it, if she leaves such a fool alone, if something really happens, it will probably destroy her Taoist faith.
I have to take care of it.
The queen blinked her big round eyes and looked at Kong Xiyan for a long time before she raised her hand and covered it with a white silk handkerchief. She took off a jade bracelet that looked very valuable along the soft and smooth handkerchief, and then used the same action to put the bracelet on Kong Xiyan's wrist.
"This bracelet is a relic of my mother's. I've never taken it off since she gave it to me when I was sixteen, before she died." The queen put the bracelet on Kong Xiyan and smiled softly. "Having this bracelet is worth a thousand words."
"Okay, I'll return it to you after this matter is over." Kong Xiyan nodded.
"This bracelet is for you." The queen looked at Kong Xiyan and said, "From your tone, you should know my daughter. If you don't mind... I want to adopt you as my adopted daughter."
"Godmother~" Kong Xiyan said sweetly, and her beautiful eyes turned: "Tomorrow, I will also prepare a gift for Godmother."
"Be good." The queen looked at Kong Xiyan with a firm gaze: "Since you are my adopted daughter, you should listen to your godmother's nagging more."
"You say." Kong Xiyan nodded.
"Everything must be based on your safety." The queen held Kong Xiyan's hand: "Do you understand?"
Kong Xiyan smiled and took out the gold coins she had hidden in her pocket to show the queen: "Godmother, don't forget who I am."
The queen looked at the gold coin, slightly startled, then smiled, cupped Kong Xiyan's cheek, and gently pressed her forehead against hers: "No matter who you are, no matter how great your abilities are, you are still just a little girl."
Kong Xiyan was stunned and lowered her eyes.
I couldn't help but think of that sentence again: You two... really are mother and daughter...
After leaving [Witch Uncertainty], Kong Xiyan went straight back to the hotel. At the hotel entrance, she met Cheng Yue with a bitter face and Zhong Yangyang and Chu Xiaoxiao who had been comforting her.
"What's going on?" Kong Xiyan looked at Cheng Yue with a puzzled look on her face.
"Sister Kong! Help me!" Cheng Yue opened her mouth with a hoarse voice and an expression that looked like she was about to cry: "I can't count! I either get stuck or forget where I was, and my voice is hoarse!"
"Oh, I see." Kong Xiyan looked up at Chu Xiaoxiao and Zhong Yangyang. They also had bitter smiles on their faces. It seemed that Cheng Yue had indeed suffered a lot.
Four or five hours have passed since lunch, and the sun is about to set.
"Sister Kong! Save my life!" Cheng Yue grinned with a face full of grievance. How could she have known that it was easy to get involved with a man, but it would be so difficult to get rid of him!
"It's okay. I'll help you out after we get back home. By the way, how much did you originally plan to spend on a gift for that person?" Kong Xiyan looked at Cheng Yue.
"I asked my brother for one million, and I also prepared a little more than one million myself." Cheng Yue curled his lips, his face full of grievance.
"Two million then. Give me the two million and I'll go back and help you get out of this trouble." Kong Xiyan saw Cheng Yue's reluctance and raised her eyebrows. "Of course, there's no need to be so anxious. If you don't want to spend the money, just wait until you get back."
"Then... let's talk about it when we get back." Cheng Yue really didn't want to spend the two million, mainly because she had suffered so much and in the end she would have to spend another two million.
Why do I feel like an idiot?
She is not short of money, but she is short of breath!
It’s so frustrating!
"Okay, let's take a look." Kong Xiyan smiled meaningfully.
If Cheng Yue is not hit from all sides, this little girl will be ignorant of the immensity of the world and may be completely deceived by some man in the future.
This time, it’s just a chance for her to learn a lesson!
"Sister, what are your plans for tomorrow? We're going to the beach tomorrow. Do you want to come with us?" Zhong Yangyang looked at Kong Xiyan: "We brought some nice swimsuits!"
"Put away your swimsuit for now." Kong Xiyan pulled out an invitation from her pocket. "Aren't you here for a photo shoot? I've got you an invitation to the palace. I'll take you there for a tour tomorrow."
"The palace!" The three little girls opened their eyes wide in disbelief, and finally Cheng Yue screamed at the top of her lungs: "Sister Kong is awesome!"
"Shh, shh, shh! Try to keep your mouth shut tomorrow. Your voice affects the national image when you go out!" Kong Xiyan quickly made a silencing gesture to Cheng Yue.
Cheng Yue puffed up his cheeks in dissatisfaction.
Humph! Sister Kong is bullying.
Zhong Yangyang took the opportunity to see the jade bracelet on Kong Xiyan's wrist.
Why haven’t I seen my sister wear this bracelet before?
