Chapter 520: The Concubine Appears
Qiuyue described in detail Song Mingen's current appearance and demeanor, which Song Mingzhu could not imagine at all.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Song Mingzhu would have felt that she might still be dreaming.
After lunch that day, we went to the vicinity of Prince Rong’s Mansion.
Song Mingen had not left the house for two consecutive days, but Wen Can had been frequently in Prince Rong's house.
Seeing Wen Can, Song Mingzhu was sure that Song Mingen was really alive.
But she was obsessed with seeing the person before she could go back and live a stable life.
"Madam, I just learned from the maids who are shopping for Prince Rong's mansion that they are going to the imperial mausoleum to pray and worship their ancestors tomorrow. I also overheard them saying that the young prince looks most like the old Prince Rong's wife, especially his eyebrows and eyes are exactly the same."
"What else?"
"Everyone in Prince Rong's mansion is busy preparing for the little prince's birthday banquet on the ninth day of next month."
Song Mingzhu then remembered that Song Mingen always celebrated his birthday half a month late, so it turned out that the ninth day of the first lunar month was his real birthday.
"Let's go find an inn nearby."
My eldest brother loves to stay at home when he comes to the capital. Now he has returned to Prince Rong’s Mansion, and in the future he may even live in the imperial palace.
She may not even have the chance to see her elder brother from a distance in the future.
Tomorrow I must see my brother from afar.
As soon as the master and servant left, Princess Anyang came to Prince Rong's mansion in a hurry.
Princess Anyang went to Jinque Tower first, and coincidentally Song Mingen was there too.
Princess Anyang looked at Song Mingen again and finally understood why she felt he looked familiar when she first saw him in the Nine-Storeyed Tower that day.
"Grandma, if my eldest uncle hadn't worn a mask, I would have remembered he looked like you after seeing him more often."
Song Mingen was puzzled: "When have you ever seen my true face?"
Princess Anyang smiled and said, "It was when you first arrived in the capital and went to the Nine-Storied Tower."
Song Mingen thought carefully and said, "Your grandparents have been away from Beijing for eighteen years. You probably haven't seen them, right?"
Princess Anyang shook her head and said, "When I was ten years old, I left the capital with my father for a trip and met him in Tongcheng. We stayed and ate together for half a year."
"Ha...that's right," Gu Yining nodded repeatedly with a smile, "It wasn't half a year, it was seven and a half months. Anyang, it's a good thing your uncle wore a mask later. If you recognized him, he would be in danger."
"Unlikely. I would suspect that my eldest uncle is another son of yours. After all, you said you were traveling for the past 18 years. Maybe you were looking for another son. I will write to you as soon as possible and ask you to come back early to give you a surprise. Who is it that secretly switched my eldest uncle with Xiao Hongyi?"
"Sister Princess." Song Yu walked in. "Come with me to the Jade Pavilion. I'll explain everything to you."
"Mother, Aunt Du, you two can chat slowly. I'm going back to Phoenix Terrace to accompany Wanwan."
Gu Yining smiled and nodded: "Go quickly,"
"Ningning." Du Ye said, "What do you think of Prince Mu?"
Gu Yining looked puzzled, "Why are you asking about him suddenly?"
"Sister Yu will be fourteen soon, and fifteen next year. She said she'll get married at eighteen."
"What?" Gu Yining was surprised for a moment, then quickly understood, "No, I don't agree. Master Mu is not only not interested in women, but he's also old. Sister Yu must stay away from him."
"What if Sister Yu likes Prince Mu?"
The next day at dawn, Song Mingzhu arrived near Prince Rong's mansion.
Several large carriages were parked in front of Prince Rong's palace.
The honor guards are ready.
"Boss, that lady is here really early. Do you want me to chase her away? Today is the day to go to the Imperial Mausoleum."
Song Mingzhu thought that no one would notice her in the dark, but she didn't know that Song Mingen knew about her arrival on the day she came, so he didn't go out and didn't let anyone chase her away.
"No need. The young prince didn't say to chase her away. Just let her guard. As long as she doesn't come around, it'll be fine."
Gu Yining was not well yet, and Jiang Yunwan was still pregnant, so only Xiao Yanxu, Song Mingen, and Song Yu, a generation of three, went to the imperial mausoleum.
As soon as Song Mingen arrived at the hidden wall, the guard at the door came forward and whispered a few words.
"Dad, hurry up, the emperor's motorcade is here."
"Oh, here I come." Song Mingen stepped out of the door and subconsciously glanced at where Song Mingzhu was hiding. He walked straight into the carriage without stopping.
It took the imperial guards half a quarter of an hour to clear the way for the royal convoy to leave the front gate street of Prince Rong's mansion.
"Ma'am, did you see that?"
Song Mingzhu looked at the convoy going away with a faint smile on her face, "I see."
The eldest brother's face is still the same, but his whole person seems to have been reborn. His temperament is resolute, and the aura of a superior is becoming more and more intense.
"Let's go back to Mingyue Tower."
"Mom, who is that man? How dare he ride in Daddy's luxury car?"
The young man, who looked to be about sixteen years old, quickly covered the boy's mouth.
On the left side of the two brothers was a woman dressed as an ordinary woman, with only a peach wood hairpin on her head, but her face was as white as a peeled egg, and her pair of peach blossom eyes were very charming.
After the convoy went away, the woman took her two children to Liao Ji Restaurant.
Arriving at the private room, the young man closed the door and said softly, "Mother, we can't stay in the capital any longer. Let's go back after dinner, pack up, and then go to the East China Sea, shall we?"
The woman nodded and said, "Okay, we'll leave tomorrow."
If she hadn't discovered that Lin Yutang had been sent back to the Lin family, she wouldn't have known that things had changed in Prince Rong's mansion.
My man turned out to be a fake king and his identity was unknown!
The little boy pouted, "Why should I leave? Daddy said I will be the little prince in the future."
"Brother, our father is no longer Prince Rong."
"No! I want to be a little..." The young master hurriedly covered his mouth, "If you don't want to live, then make a loud noise, and we will be beheaded together with Daddy."
Hearing this, the little boy was instantly frightened and his eyes turned red and tears came out.
I'm so sad. Why is Daddy suddenly not Prince Rong anymore?
"Mother, brother, what should we do in the future?"
The young master, Chen Yun, said soothingly, "Dad has invested a lot of property in the East China Sea for us. We will become wealthy there."
The little boy wiped his tears and said, "Then I will take the imperial examination and return to Beijing to vindicate my father."
The woman frowned. Why would a fake Wang Ping rebel?
Hey, my youngest son doesn’t know anything yet, let’s get him back to the East China Sea first.
"Okay, mother will also take Mr. Qin and the others to the East China Sea. Once you get there, you must listen to the teachers and study hard."
"Yes, mother, I will study hard."
The mother and her two children had brunch at Liao's Restaurant and then returned to Chen's Mansion in the west of the city.
This place is only three streets away from the east side of the city.
Half an incense stick of time after the mother and her two children returned to Chen's house, Tang Cong and Tang Tian came nearby with Xiao Hongyi's portrait.
We went into a pub that specializes in Jiangnan cuisine.
"Brother, we've been searching the east side of the city for so long, but there's no clue about that woman, and there's no clue about Xiao Hongyi either. Does he have a mistress?"
Tang Cong lowered his voice, "He is a fake king. We don't know who his biological father is. He is definitely not an ordinary person. It is impossible for Xiao Hongyi to have only one son. There must be someone else outside!"
After all, their conspiracy is to steal the kingdom of Dayuan, so they must have more sons.
"Searching aimlessly like this is not the right approach. The master will demand the results tomorrow."
"Don't worry, there's still a lot of places in the east city that we haven't checked yet. We're sure to find something. After we finish eating, we'll go back to the east city and continue searching."
Tang Tian: "It's impossible that they are all hiding in the east of the city, right?"
The shopkeeper led the waiter to bring in the food. "Sir, the food you requested is here. This plate of braised pork is a complimentary side dish. Please enjoy it slowly."
"Thank you, boss." Tang Cong took a piece directly and said, "Yes, it's good. It tastes great."
The shopkeeper smiled knowingly, "I knew you would like it. If you want more food, pull this rope. The other end of the rope is a bell that leads to the lobby. As long as you ring it, we will come quickly."
The shopkeeper left with the waiter after he finished speaking. Just as he reached the door, Tang Tian called out, "Shopkeeper, have you seen this person?"
The shopkeeper saw the man in the portrait clearly, and the panic in his eyes disappeared in an instant. "I've never seen him."
