Quick wear: a good pregnancy, the treasure in the palm of an emperor's hand

The secret guard hid in the corner, held his breath, and listened attentively to the conversation between the Prime Minister and Prince Rong. The shock in his heart was like a raging storm, and it took a long time to calm down.

The Zhao family was truly too audacious! They actually dared to imprison the eldest prince and even replaced the second prince. This was simply treason and an unforgivable crime.

As the conversation deepened, the secret guard finally learned the truth of the matter.

It turned out that the eldest prince did not die young, but was secretly imprisoned by the empress dowager in a villa outside the capital.

This shocking information struck the secret guard like a bolt of lightning. Suddenly, he seemed to remember something important, and his mouth opened involuntarily, but could no longer close.

According to the conversation between the Prime Minister and the Minister of Personnel, as well as the things their master had asked them to investigate over the years, their master, Du Gong, might be the imprisoned eldest prince.

This thought made the secret guard's heartbeat suddenly accelerate, and he felt a chill running down his spine.

If all this is true, what should their master Du Gong do?

The emperor's legitimate son, a descendant of the royal family, actually became a eunuch.

Just as the secret guard was lost in thought, the Prime Minister and Prince Rong had finished their conversation and left the study.

Seeing the people leave, the secret guard had no time to say goodbye to his companions, and hurried back to the Governor's Mansion like a gust of wind, his heart full of anxiety and expectation, as well as a trace of reluctance.

At the same time, Xie Yanci was walking with Yun Youran in the garden.

He hasn't come back since he left yesterday.

So when he came back today, he put aside all his government affairs and spent time with his wife and children.

Xie Yanci held Yun Youran's hand tightly and said softly, "Ranran, I have something I want to tell you."

Yun Youran turned around, a gentle smile on her face. Her beautiful eyes were as clear and moving as a lake in spring. She looked at Xie Yanci gently, "Go ahead! I'm listening."

Xie Yanci stared into Yun Youran's eyes and said solemnly, "I suspect I am the late queen's child, the eldest prince who was abducted shortly after birth."

Yun Youran's reaction was unusually calm. She didn't show any surprise at all, but simply asked calmly, "Do you have any evidence?"

Xie Yanci shook his head, frowning slightly, "There is no conclusive evidence yet, but various signs and my past experiences all suggest to me that my guess is correct.

The reason why I left suddenly yesterday was because the secret guard heard that the Prime Minister asked the Minister of Personnel to secretly arrange for someone to go to Xiaohe Village and assassinate someone.

I thought this might be a key breakthrough, so I made a quick decision and immediately took my secret guards to Xiaohe Village to investigate."

At this point, Xie Yanci's tone revealed a hint of confusion, "It's just that I really can't understand why the Zhao family said that man was the Zhao family's lost child, but then wanted to kill him to silence him."

Yun Youran said: "Don't be impatient, take your time. A desperate dog will always jump over the wall, and that's when you can catch them.

And according to what you said, since the Zhao family has already sent people to silence the witnesses, they must be panicking and anxious.

In panic and confusion, they will always reveal their true colors."

Sometimes saying the wrong thing can convey crucial information.

"Yeah, Ranran is right. Now they are panicking. I just need to send more people to keep an eye on them and wait for them to show their hand."

An hour later, Xie Yanci reluctantly walked towards the study.

As soon as he entered the study, An Yi came up to him, bowed, and said, "Master, today I heard a shocking secret."

"What secret can surprise you so much?" Xie Yanci was very curious.

An Yi said: "It turns out that Prince Rong is not a royal heir, but a bastard of the Zhao family.

Moreover, I heard from them that the real royal heir was a child with a disfigured face, and in order not to affect the status of the imperial concubine and the foundation of the Zhao family, they killed the prince at birth.

Also, the person the Queen Mother has been secretly searching for these years is the eldest prince."

An Yi was a little excited and wanted to report everything he knew to Xie Yanci.

Xie Yanci was also a little shocked to hear that Prince Rong was a bastard of the Zhao family, and that the disfigured Xiao Min was the real royal heir.

So this is why they want to silence us.

Fortunately, although Xiao Min grew up in the countryside, he is not a fool.

Otherwise, they would have succeeded.

As for his own life experience, he had long had doubts about it, but now that he had the real answer, he was no longer shocked.

Thinking of what Xiao Min had asked people to investigate, Xie Yanci wrote a note and asked An Yi to deliver it to Qin Fu. He knew what to do.

He has delivered the message, and it depends on whether Xiao Min believes it or not.

Xie Yanci continued to write two notes and arranged for another secret guard to deliver them to Prince Rong's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion, telling them that Xiao Min was not dead.

He just wanted to cause trouble for the Zhao family and make them terrified.

After receiving the news, Qin Fu went directly to the inn to find Xiao Min and Chu Ling'er.

He didn't beat around the bush, but quickly told the whole story.

The more Chu Ling'er listened, the more frightened she became. She looked at Xiao Min with shock on her face.

She didn't know what kind of luck she had, she married a prince so casually.

Xiao Min was in turmoil. He originally thought that those people came to him because there was some internal conflict in the Zhao family.

According to this guard, he is Queen Zhao's biological son, so the Zhao family is also his maternal family.

But for the sake of Prince Rong's illegitimate son, they wanted to kill him to silence him.

They abandoned him back then, and now they want to kill him to silence him. How cruel!

If he had not been cautious yesterday and had not pulled his wife out after returning home, they would have been burned to death in the fire last night.

Xiao Min looked at Qin Fu and asked, "Who are you, and why are you telling me these things? What are your intentions?"

Qin Fu said, "You will know who this person is in the future. I told you the truth so that you can be more cautious and not die without knowing why. As for my intention, does it count as trying to sow discord between you and the Zhao family?"

He didn't say anything else, but took out a token from his bosom and handed it to Xiao Min, "If you want to go to the palace to ask His Majesty for a decision, take this token to the Governor's Mansion."

Seeing Qin Fu turning around to leave, Xiao Min hurriedly asked, "Are you the 9,000-year-old Dugong's man?"

Qin Fu didn't answer, jumped out of the window, and disappeared.

Chu Linger looked at Xiao Min, "Husband, what do you think of what he said?"

Xiao Min thought for a moment and said, "It can't be fake."

If it wasn't true, why would the Zhao family kill him to silence him? He was just a powerless rural citizen, how could he hinder the Zhao family?

Only his identity was true, and the Zhao family was willing to kill him to silence him in order to gain the status of the illegitimate son.

As long as he dies and there is no evidence, the Zhao family can rest assured.

If he didn't die, once the truth was exposed, not only would the Zhao family fall, but the Queen Mother would not be much better off either.

Xiao Min looked at Chu Ling'er and said, "Ling'er, the pastoral life you wanted may not be able to continue."

Chu Linger smiled gently, "No matter what my husband chooses, I will always follow him." If you don't betray me, I will stay with you until we are old.

Xiao Min held her in his arms and kissed her gently on the forehead, "Thank you, Ling'er." You use love as a prison, and I am willing to join the game.

He thanked God for sending such a good wife to him.
