Li Qingyi was still concerned about Liu Yinzhu, and since she was no longer a child, there was nothing fun to do in the harem, so after wandering around outside for a short while, she hurried back to the palace.

"Mother, mother." Li Qingyi rarely showed an anxious look. He ran into Kunning Palace, but did not see the person he was looking for in the main hall. He hurriedly asked the palace servant, "Where is my mother?"

The palace servant quickly bowed and replied, "Your Highness, something happened in Chuxiu Palace just now, and the Queen went to deal with it."

Li Qingyi was stunned: "Something happened in Chuxiu Palace?"

In fact, generally speaking, palace servants could not explain this kind of thing clearly to a child of Li Qingyi's age, and usually they would just pass it over with a sentence like "The Queen has gone out for something."

But it was different for Li Qingyi. Usually, as long as she asked, if the palace people didn't explain clearly, Li Qingyi would be unhappy.

Yes, other children are easily treated perfunctorily, but they themselves don’t realize that they are being treated perfunctorily.

Li Qingyi noticed this and naturally became unhappy at being treated perfunctorily.

It would have been fine if it happened once or twice, but after so many times, the queen realized that her daughter didn't like being treated perfunctorily, so she simply told the palace servants that except for matters that had to be kept secret, if the little princess asked, they should tell her directly.

The palace maid replied: "I don't know what happened specifically."

Li Qingyi heard this and nodded: "Okay then."

She thought about it and asked Aunt Fang Xin who had been following her: "Aunt, can I go to Chuxiu Palace to take a look?"

Fang Xin glanced at the sky and hesitated: "Your Highness, looking at the sky, I think it's almost time for the Queen to return to the palace for dinner."

If you go now, you will probably be picked up by the Queen on the way, so why bother making this trip?

Upon hearing this, Li Qingyi thought that it made sense and it was not necessary to watch the excitement, so she asked Aunt Fangxin to take her to change clothes and wait for the Queen to return to the palace to have dinner together.

After a while, the Queen returned to the palace with a group of people just as Fang Xin said.

After hearing that her daughter had come back and was anxious to find her, the queen thought for a moment and guessed that it was probably about the eldest princess, so she turned her head and asked her confidant, "What did you find out this afternoon?"

The confidant approached the queen and whispered.

After listening to the story, the Queen nodded and said, "These servants concealed the truth and betrayed their master. But they are from the Princess's Mansion after all. You should have them compile the testimony and hand it over to the Princess."

The confidant hesitated: "The princess is old. If she knew about this, would she be angry and do something bad?"

The queen frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and sighed, "But this kind of thing cannot be hidden from her. Everyone knows that the only knot in the eldest princess's heart in her life is the prince who died young..."

Moreover, if the prince had not died young, leaving only Princess Fu'an as his descendant, the emperor would not have given her the title of princess for the sake of the eldest princess.

If the rules set by Taizu were followed, the eldest princess's lineage would at most be given the title of county lady by Fu'an's generation.

As a result, the eldest princess would feel uncomfortable if she knew about this incident, but the emperor and the queen would also feel uncomfortable if they knew about it.

Especially the emperor, he is a sentimental person, but he also cannot tolerate any grain of sand in his eyes.

If it weren't for Princess Fu'an's background, the Emperor would have asked the Queen to reprimand her the first time Princess Fu'an got into trouble.

How could Princess Fu'an live such an arrogant life for so many years without getting hurt at all?

As it turned out, all my patience over the past two years was directed at the wrong people.

If the real young prince who was found had a better temper, the emperor would probably be completely disgusted with the current Princess Fu'an by comparison.

Confidant: "Then, Madam, this matter..."

"Arrange a few imperial doctors to follow, and inform the Prince of Qin and his wife in advance, so that they can come and give advice when the time comes."

Confidant: "Yes, I will arrange it right away."

Just as he finished speaking, Li Qingyi, who had received the news, appeared in a loud voice, "Mother!"

The queen immediately smiled, bent down slightly to catch Li Qingyi who rushed over, and said gently: "Hey, little darling, run slower, don't fall."

The mother and daughter were very affectionate. The palace servants prepared the meal. The queen sent the servants away and fed Li Qingyi herself.

Li Qingyi was a little embarrassed, but this was the queen's little hobby and it wasn't like this every time, so Li Qingyi had to cooperate.

After dinner, Li Qingyi took the Queen's hand to help digest the food, and the two went to the small garden behind Kunning Palace.

"Mother, is there any news about the eldest princess?" Li Qingyi thought for a long time and decided not to beat around the bush and get straight to the point.

The queen felt a little helpless. Her daughter was smart, but...

But then I thought, my daughter is so young and no one has taught her specifically, so it's normal that she doesn't know how to use words.

Queen: "Your aunt Qing questioned everyone who knew about Princess Fu'an's birth this afternoon, and she actually found out some secrets."

As she spoke, the Queen laughed, "Our Yi'er is really a lucky little star. If you hadn't told us, we wouldn't have known that there was such a thing going on here."

It's totally the tone of coaxing a child.

Li Qingyi was shocked when he heard this.

There is no other reason. Even in modern times, if a child is taken away by mistake, it will take a lot of effort to find out what happened.

Although modern technology is advanced, whether a child is biologically born can be determined directly through DNA testing, and the answer will be basically clear after a quick check.

But to trace the source and find out what happened in the first place, it will take at least three or four days or even ten days or half a month, and you also need connections, otherwise you may never figure out what happened in your lifetime.

She had just mentioned this to the Queen, and the Queen had arranged for someone to investigate. It would take some time to mobilize the staff, right? How come the results came out now?

Is this the power of imperial authority?

Isn’t this too efficient?

In fact, this was all Li Qingyi's own misunderstanding. It was not that the imperial power was powerful, it was completely... When Li Qingyi was chatting with the system, she had basically figured out the whole story. In this case, as long as she found the corresponding person and interrogated him a little, she could basically restore the whole story.

There were indeed not many people who really knew the truth, but those people were not very powerful. At that time, they were afraid of the power of the eldest princess and did not dare to expose the matter. Over the years, there were always a few people who were trembling in their hearts and could not sleep day or night.

They had already suffered psychological torture for more than ten years, and some even died of illness not long after this incident. The few who were left behind were all full of suspicion.

Now the Queen sent people to capture the man, and then used some words to guide him. Since he was not a tough guy to begin with, he naturally told her everything.

If forward deduction doesn’t work, then reverse deduction isn’t easy?
