Xiao Huizi and He Xiaoer

Chapter 323: Stillborn Baby Girl

The next day, Queen Yan moved back to Mingyue Palace.

When Luo Li received the news that Queen Yan had recovered, he immediately came to ask for a meeting.

When he saw Queen Yan's face was ruddy and full of energy, and she had regained her former incomparable brilliance, Luo Li almost burst into tears. He fell in front of her and said excitedly: "Queen, you are finally well."

"Okay, get up."

Queen Yan glanced at him and said, "Luo Li, you are old now and your body is not as strong as it used to be. Why do you have to be so excited?"

Luo Li stood up, wiped his slightly red eyes, and said, "I can't do anything about the Queen's illness. I'm sorry, Queen. I feel uneasy."

Queen Yan said: "It's not your fault, don't blame yourself. This is my fate, it's normal for you to be helpless."

Hearing this, Luo Li blushed and felt even more ashamed.

Queen Yan said, "Sit down and have some tea."

She saw that Luo Li looked tired and had a few more white hairs. He had been working hard and thinking hard for days, and he looked very haggard. So she said, "Luo Li, you have worked hard. I will reward you."

Luo Li quickly shook his head, "No, no. Queen, I don't have the face to accept the reward. As long as the Queen is in good health, I will be satisfied."

Queen Yan did not force him and said, "I am fine now. The palace's medical team will be disbanded. You can take a long vacation and go back to have a good rest."

She always kept her word, so Luo Li didn't dare to refuse and sat aside drinking tea in silence.

Queen Yan asked, "Do you have anything else to say?"

Luo Li took a sip of tea and hesitated to speak.

He hesitated in his heart, wondering whether he should tell the story of He Zhang swapping Xu's baby. This matter was of great importance and seemed to involve Emperor Jiang.

He took a few more sips of tea and decided to keep the matter to himself.

Queen Yan glanced at him, dismissed everyone, and said, "Luo Li, just tell me what you want to say."

Luo Li then said, "Queen... I have something I really don't know whether I should tell you."

Queen Yan said calmly, "Go ahead."

Luo Li stammered, "It was something that happened in the Xu family many years ago. It involved President He's father, He Zhang. I guess it might be... related to Emperor Jiang, so I thought about it for a long time."

Queen Yan was surprised, her face changed slightly, and she said coldly: "Speak."

Luo Li did not dare to hide it any longer, so he said, "Twenty-six years ago, Mrs. Xu gave birth to her second daughter. However, one day later, the baby girl died of a congenital disease."

Queen Yan said: "This matter is not a secret, the whole Guangcheng knows about it, is there any hidden story behind it?"

Luo Li's eyes lit up, and with admiration on his face, he said, "The queen is wise, and there is indeed a huge hidden secret. Only He Zhang and I know the inside story, and none of the Xu family knows."

Queen Yan's eyes fixed.

Luo Li continued, "Queen, the second young lady of the Xu family was swapped by He Zhang. Therefore, the stillborn baby girl was not the second young lady of the Xu family, but a baby from another family."

Queen Yan was surprised and asked, "How did you know?"

Luo Li cleared his throat and said, "Before Mrs. Xu gave birth, I checked the fetus and found that the baby was normal and could not have any congenital diseases. So, I suspected that the baby was switched, and the most suspicious person was He Zhang. I questioned He Zhang privately, and as expected, he admitted it and asked me to keep it a secret."

"Why did He Zhang do this?"

"He won't say anything."

"What about the baby girl who died?"

"She was cremated three days later. Mrs. Xu was reluctant to let her go and wanted to keep her for a few more days. He Zhang suggested cremating her as soon as possible, saying that it would allow the baby girl to be reincarnated sooner, so the Xu family had no choice but to agree."

Queen Yan pondered for a while, then asked, "Luo Li, what does this have to do with Emperor Jiang?"

Luo Li replied: "It's because I have always had a good relationship with He Zhang. He asked me to look after Madam Xu. Before I went to the Xu family, Emperor Jiang specifically told me to follow He Zhang's arrangements, so I..."

"Alright," Queen Yan's face suddenly darkened, "Luo Li, this matter has nothing to do with Emperor Jiang, don't speculate rashly."

Luo Li was startled and apologized quickly: "Queen, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have made such a wild guess."

Queen Yan asked again: "What month and day was that day?"

Luo Li said: "I remember clearly that Mrs. Xu gave birth to a baby girl on November 11th, and she stopped breathing the next day. We still don't know whose baby girl she is..."

Queen Yan interrupted him again and said calmly, "Luo Li, I already know the secret. There is no need to mention it again."

"Yes, Queen. I will never mention it again."

Luo Li breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Queen, I have been holding this matter in for twenty-six years. After reporting it to you today, I feel much better."

Queen Yan said, "Luo Li, I've been through a lot for you these years. He Zhang has been missing for many years, and this matter has passed. The Xu family is living a peaceful life, and this matter is over now."

She continued, "You should also put down your burdens, no longer have to endure the inner torment, and live a more relaxed and happy life."

Luo Li stood up and bowed, "Yes, thank you, Queen. I'll take my leave now."

However, he was still somewhat puzzled as to why the queen spoke so lightly and seemed so nonchalant about the matter.

There is obviously one important thing that has not been clarified.

For example, where did the real second daughter of the Xu family go?

Also, whose baby was the one that was switched?

But he knew that Queen Yan was a person who was hard to guess, cold yet compassionate.

Luo Li smiled, finally feeling relieved. It had been weighing on his mind for so many years, and now he was finally relieved.

Queen Yan saw him off to the palace gate.

Shangguan Jing looked at Luo Li's back, walked over and asked, "Queen, Dr. Luo seems to be relieved. What did you say to him?"

"I'll let him take a long vacation and go back to have a good rest."

"Really?" Shangguan Jing held her chin and thought for two seconds, "Dr. Luo has always liked to work, so I'm afraid he would be reluctant to take a long vacation."

Queen Yan glanced at her and asked, "Shangguan, if your biological parents were still alive, would you go find them?"

Shangguan Jing shook her head and said without hesitation: "No."

She is an orphan who grew up in the beautiful city of Jiangshan. She regards this place as her home and serves Queen Yan like a family member.

Her family is here.

So, she would never leave this home.

Queen Yan knew that Shangguan Jing would definitely say this, so she shook her head and turned back.

As she walked, she murmured to herself, "No, no, we shouldn't compare them. My sister wants her to go back, and I also want her to go back, that would be better."

Shangguan Jing was confused and quickly followed Queen Yan, "Queen, what did you say? Jing'er, I don't understand."

Queen Yan paused and turned around and said, "Jing'er, go ask Minghui to come down. I have something to say to her."

"know."

Shangguan Jing responded and went up to the Beautiful Temple.

Queen Yan returned to the room, sat on the chair, and thought about what Luo Li had said. She immediately understood what had happened.

She remembered that the day her sister brought Jiang Minghui back home was November 11, which was the third day after the baby girl died.

There is no doubt that the deceased baby girl is Jiang Minghui.

When she was brought back, Jiang Minghui was no longer breathing. Her sister used her magic power to replace her with a perfect body, allowing her to be reborn and achieve an immortal body.

Her birthday is November 11th.

At this moment, Queen Yan completely understood her sister's intentions.

My sister has ten thousand ways to completely erase all traces.

However, the elder sister kept Jiang Minghui's birthday and her birthmark. It turned out that from the beginning to the end, the elder sister hoped that she could be reunited with her biological parents.

How much my sister loves Jiang Minghui.

Minghui is so lucky.

And I should fulfill my sister's wish.
