Chapter 35: Discovery of Writings
"Didn't you know about this matter at the beginning?"
"I've clearly told you everything, but you're hitting me now?"
Gu Weiang was almost crying because of Chu Qianlan's stupidity.
"You stupid woman!"
"I originally agreed to let you bring the person to the birthday banquet. If the Third Prince likes her, His Majesty will naturally have nothing to say.
But what did you do?
"How dare you use such despicable means to deal with a fool!"
"How could His Majesty forgive such behavior?"
"Do you know that because of this incident, our Yong'an Marquis Mansion is about to face a disaster?"
Hearing this, Chu Qianlan subconsciously took a step back, and was saved from falling thanks to Gu Nansheng's support.
Chu Qianlan was silent for a moment, then immediately turned to look at Gu Jingchun.
"Something about puppy pendants, I don't know, she made all of this."
Gu Jingchun couldn't help but sigh when he saw this.
"Mother, even at this point, you still want to put the blame on me.
How do you think I, a woman who just arrived in Tiandu and has never been out of the house, could know the relationship between the Third Prince and that little dog and make an identical pendant?"
"Ordinary people can't do this kind of thing. If someone is interested and wants to investigate, they can trace it back to the Yong'an Marquis Mansion."
"Do you think the Queen Mother doesn't know?
She just knew that the Yong'an Marquisate was about to end, so she was too lazy to investigate.
These words made Chu Qianlan even more shocked.
She seemed to have lost all her strength and stared blankly ahead.
Gu Nansheng was also full of surprise.
He helped Chu Qianlan sit down, and until now he couldn't believe that all this was actually done by his mother.
Gu Yunjin stood beside Gu Yunsheng, his face pale, but his hands were clenched tightly in his sleeves.
She understood all these words, but she didn't believe a word of them.
She couldn't believe that Gu Jingchun, a girl who grew up in the countryside, actually knew about the affairs of the court.
I don't believe that the emperor would abandon the prosperous Yong'an Marquisate because of that small thing.
You know, my father commands a large number of troops. Without him, there would be no Tiandu and the emperor today.
His Majesty and my father have been friends for many years, so why would he care about this small pendant?
Moreover, she is already going to marry the Third Prince, what else does the Emperor want?
In her opinion, all of this was clearly Gu Jingchun's words to deceive her father, but her father was actually deceived by her.
Gu Yunjin was going crazy!
Is she really going to marry that fool, the Third Prince?
Now, whenever she thought of the fat on the Third Prince's body, she felt like vomiting out of nausea.
And on the other side at this time.
Shen Hechuan, who was already in Shoukang Palace, pinched his forehead tiredly.
He was lying in a pavilion in Shou'an Hall at this time.
The environment here is quiet, and whenever Chen Hechuan is in a bad mood, he will lie here.
The same is true now.
Whenever he closed his eyes now, the glimpse he had just had on the road would come to his mind.
That face was so familiar, so familiar that it often appeared in his dreams.
He still remembers the way she smiled.
She had a sweet smile, curved eyebrows, and eyes as bright as the stars in the night sky, so much so that he could not forget her for all these years.
Could it be that I really saw it wrong?
Because he couldn't get an answer, he became very upset.
He thought again of the little house that held his memories.
All the times I spent with her seemed like yesterday, but in just one year, everything about her turned to ashes.
He specifically inquired about it at the time.
It is said that not long after he left, a group of bandits came here, killed everyone, stole all the gold and silver treasures, and set the whole house on fire.
This incident caused a big uproar at the time. The local county government even filed a record of it, and Shen Hechuan even went to investigate it specifically.
But even so, he was unwilling to believe that the bright and cunning woman would leave him so hastily.
Over the past few years, he has been thinking about how great it would have been if he had just agreed to her at that time.
She's just the Crown Princess.
Although it is a little difficult, there is still a solution.
If she is of low birth, then he can give her a birth.
But just one step away, everything is gone, there is no chance of anything happening.
Chen Hechuan opened his eyes and looked ahead blankly, but his eyes were unfocused.
Until the dim sunset shone on the railing.
The mottled sunlight made the railings look like they were coated with a layer of gold.
It was under this golden light that the three words on the railing gradually became clear.
"Snow spray."
Spray snowflakes.
Spray snow?
Shen Hechuan sat up suddenly and looked carefully at the words on the railing.
"The long winter ends, and the dead trees bloom in spring."
"Snow spray."
At this time, he saw the words he had carved on the railing.
When did these three words appear?
Chen Hechuan rubbed the three words carefully.
It was finally confirmed that the writing was newly engraved.
Unfortunately, the carving was so sloppy that the words could not be seen at all.
He stood up suddenly.
"Someone come!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a little palace maid came over hurriedly.
"What are your orders, Your Highness?"
"Has anyone been near here recently?"
The palace maid glanced at the place behind Shen Hechuan.
He then noticed that Shen Hechuan's voice was obviously filled with anger, and then he said tremblingly:
"Your Highness, there are palace maids here every day to clean the place, and many noble ladies have come here for the Queen Mother's birthday banquet today."
Upon hearing this, Chen Hechuan said, "Give me a list of all the people who came to the birthday party today, and bring the people who clean this place every day to see me."
Upon hearing this, the young palace maid immediately went down to make arrangements.
A moment later, all the palace maids in Shoukang Palace stood in front of Chen Hechuan.
Shen Hechuan looked at all the palace maids present one by one, and asked them where they made the sound and where they had been.
Unfortunately, in the end he didn't find the answer he wanted.
This action of Shen Hechuan also aroused the suspicion of the Queen Mother.
But she didn't say anything and didn't ask.
Instead, he had been secretly observing Shen Hechuan's actions.
The people who went to follow Chen Hechuan also brought news.
It is said that after Shen Hechuan left the palace, he saw the child again.
And that child was from the Yong'an Marquis Mansion.
In the Yong'an Marquis Mansion, there is only one person who meets the age and identity of the child.
That was the child Gu Jingchun brought back from the countryside.
The Queen Mother was very curious about why Shen Hechuan knew that child.
However, she still did not ask Shen Hechuan.
Because Chen Hechuan has been acting too abnormally recently.
He believed that she would know the answer soon.
Chen Hechuan didn't find the person he was looking for, and was suddenly disappointed.
At this time, Tianji ran over in a hurry.
"Your Highness, I have already investigated and found that the other signal today was also released from the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion."
"Also, I have already found out the identity of the maidservant in the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion."
"Whose man is he?" Chen Hechuan said in a muffled voice, still immersed in his own memories.
"She's the daughter of the Yong'an Marquisate, the real daughter who was just brought back from the countryside."
