I kicked out my vicious husband and married his great-uncle

Princess Heshuo couldn't wait and said immediately: "Sister-in-law, according to conventional thinking, we didn't find anything. So we have to settle for the next best thing and find out where the dead baby came from. If someone really replaced your child, the premise is to prepare the dead baby. But under the circumstances at that time, if the dead baby didn't want to arouse suspicion, it must have been born in the palace. And at that time, the only one who was pregnant at a similar stage to you was Xiao."

The queen frowned and said, "Heshuo, you mean to say that the dead baby was Xiao's child, and my child became Xiao's child. So, Gao Mingche is my child, right?"

Seeing that the queen looked calm, Princess Heshuo asked in confusion: "Sister-in-law, aren't you excited?"

"What are you excited about?"

"Xiaowu may be your son."

However, even after hearing such words, the queen's face remained calm.

Even the corners of her lips curled up slightly, with a hint of sneer.

"Royal sister-in-law?"

At this time, the queen sighed: "Heshuo, you have been bewitched."

"What? Sister-in-law, what are you talking about?"

The Queen looked at Cui Shuyan, her words full of sarcasm: "Princess Xie is a good trick. It's not enough to win over Heshuo, and you even want to get involved in the royal family. Why, do you think you have become the opponent of Concubine Xian, and that just joining forces with Heshuo is not enough to fight against her. And Gao Mingche hates Concubine Xian the most, so you chose him, thinking that he would become my legitimate son and thus ascend to heaven in one step, right?"

Princess Heshuo hastily defended herself: "Sister-in-law, that's not the case."

"Heshuo, you are simple-minded and easily deceived. Unlike her, she was originally just the daughter of an insignificant fifth-rank official. Now that she has tasted power, she wants to hold it firmly in her own hands. People like her are the most terrifying."

"Sister-in-law, you misunderstood Shuyan. She is not that kind of person."

"Misunderstanding? There is no misunderstanding in this matter. Let me ask you, if Gao Mingche is really my son, would the person behind the scenes keep him in the palace? No, he would just take him far away, out of my sight. Only in this way can I never find my son and live in the pain of losing my child forever."

As she spoke, there was a hint of crying in the Queen's voice.

"Sister-in-law, this is the sinister intention of the person behind the scenes. She kept the person by your side without letting you know. You even hate your own son. Isn't this exactly what the person behind the scenes wants to see?"

"What nonsense! Heshuo, you have really been bewitched by Cui Shuyan. Since I entered the palace, I have always been kind to everyone and never made enemies with anyone. Under such circumstances, who would be so thoughtful to treat me like this?"

"But what if it's for that position?" Princess Heshuo reminded.

"Heshuo, that's even more impossible. Not to mention back then, even now, your majesty is in his prime and has never considered the issue of appointing a crown prince. And back then, even if I gave birth to a child successfully, he might not necessarily be the crown prince. It's not worth setting up such a big game just for this."

The queen waved her hand and said, "Heshuo, stop talking. You must have been deceived. Some people regard power as something as important as their lives, and they are afraid of losing it. It is precisely because of this that they know that they have no chance of winning by opposing Concubine Xian, so they want to support the prince to succeed to the throne. Moreover, they support the most hopeless prince to succeed to the throne. Only in this way can this prince be grateful to her and let her hold the power in her hands firmly."

These words are full of sarcasm.

Although Cui Shuyan was not mentioned in the words, every sentence was talking about her.

Cui Shuyan had a calm expression and said nothing.

At this time, the queen was prejudiced against her. No matter what she said, she would not believe it and just thought she was quibbling.

Soon, the queen issued an order to expel the guests: "Heshuo, you can go back and rest. As for Princess Xie, if there is no imperial edict in the future, you are not allowed to enter the palace."

Princess Heshuo wanted to say something, but the Queen had no patience to listen. She waved her hand and went into the inner hall.

After leaving, Princess Heshuo was filled with guilt: "Shuyan, I just spoke so much in a hurry. I really didn't know that things would turn out like this. It also caused the emperor's sister-in-law to have an opinion of you. If I had known earlier, I should have listened to you and not said so much."

Cui Shuyan interrupted her: "Senior Sister, I don't blame you. And you will say these words sooner or later. In this case, it is better for you to see the situation clearly as soon as possible."

"Shu Yan, it's all my fault that I didn't listen to you, otherwise it wouldn't have turned out like this. You've displeased the Empress's wife, and I'm afraid your future life won't be easy."

"Strictly speaking, how the Queen sees me has little impact on my life. After all, she can't let Xing Yuan divorce me, right?"

As she spoke, Cui Shuyan winked at Princess Heshuo cunningly.

"Shuyan, how can you still laugh?"

"Why can't I laugh?" Cui Shuyan said, holding Princess Heshuo's arm and whispering, "Sister, I can't enter the palace recently. You should pay attention to the Queen and the Fifth Prince. In addition, you'd better pay attention to what Concubine Xian is doing recently."

"Okay, Shuyan, don't worry, I will definitely take care of these things. I will try to make the emperor's sister-in-law change her opinion of you as soon as possible."

"I don't care what the Queen thinks of me."

Seeing Cui Shuyan's calm face, Princess Heshuo knew that she really didn't care.

She squeezed Cui Shuyan's hand apologetically: "It's all my fault for speaking too quickly."

"Sister, please don't blame yourself. Anyway, we don't have any evidence about this matter. Now the water is even more muddy. Maybe we can still fish in troubled waters."

Cui Shu's tone of voice made Princess Heshuo less nervous.

But, she was really curious: "Shuyan, looking at the posture of the emperor's sister-in-law today, she is angry. If it were someone else, I'm afraid they would be scared to death. Why are you so calm?"

"Others are afraid that the queen will take away what belongs to them. But what I have in my hands now is what I got through my own efforts, not by calculating anyone, so the queen can't take it away."

Seeing Cui Shuyan's calm and composed appearance, Princess Heshuo couldn't help but give her a thumbs up: "Shuyan, women all over the world should take you as a role model!"

"That's too much. Senior sister, just send me here. I'm leaving the palace now."

"No, I want to take you to the palace gate."

Cui Shuyan couldn't persuade her, so she let Princess Heshuo send her to the palace gate.

Cui Shuyan was quite happy as she got on the carriage back home.

Since she doesn't have to go to the palace during this period, she has some free time and can spend more time with Ze'er and Xie Xingyuan.

Thinking of this, Cui Shuyan bought the date paste cake that Ze'er liked and the braised pork elbow that Xie Xingyuan liked, and returned to Prince Xie's mansion happily.

When he was about to go in, he saw Liu Zhong wandering outside the mansion gate.
