They are all concubines, so of course they choose the future emperor.

Cui Yan's heart was shocked.

She had never thought about it.

Her brother seldom talked to her about their father, and when he did, he expressed deep hatred for him.

She and her brother depended on each other for survival. Later, when she lost her memory, she believed in everything her brother said.

Now, Jiang Wanyue suddenly said that there might be a misunderstanding.

She was a little confused.

Jiang Wanyue continued: "Sister, think about it carefully. Did your brother ever mention why you were separated from your family?"

Cui Yan bit her lip and hesitated for a long time before speaking.

"Actually, we weren't separated. My brother said that Dad had married a rich man and wanted to marry a stepmother, so he didn't want us anymore. He asked our wet nurse to sell us, but she couldn't bear it, so she secretly sent us away and changed our identities and names."

When Jiang Wanyue heard this, she let out a long sigh.

"Sister, do you think this is possible?"

Cui Yan was silent.

She is not a child anymore. She never thought about it before, but now when she thinks about it carefully, she feels that something is wrong.

Jiang Wanyue watched Cui Yan's expression change from time to time, and felt that she had almost said enough, so she changed the subject.

"As an outsider, I can't make any definitive statements about this matter. I still have to find someone to ask."

After chatting for a while, Jiang Wanyue sent Cui Yan out the door.

Let Prince Jing handle the rest of the matter!

Jiang Wanyue is now more worried about another thing.

It was originally agreed that the Jiang family would send someone over, but something happened in the palace and the palace was closed to visitors. Later, the princess fell ill, so it has been delayed until now.

Jiang Wanyue was getting a little anxious.

She is now almost eight months pregnant, and although the pregnancy is relatively stable, there is no guarantee that there will be no accidents.

Without preparation, Jiang Wanyue felt unsure and couldn't help but worry and overthink.

She wondered if Prince Jing had forgotten about this. Should she wait for him to come back and remind him?

Fortunately, Prince Jing did not forget about this matter.

After returning from the palace that day, Prince Jing brought four servants back to the mansion and sent them directly to Wutong Courtyard.

He even came over to explain in person.

"These two were found by the Jiang family, and the other two are old maids in the palace. I asked the Imperial Concubine for them."

He waved to the four maids to come in and pay their respects.

Jiang Wanyue looked at the four people kneeling below with surprise on her face.

"Your Majesty, this is too much, isn't it? I don't need so many servants. Two will be enough."

Prince Jing laughed, waved his hand to let the four people retreat, and walked over to support her.

"There are only four servants, not too many. You can use them first. If you find any that are not convenient, you can change them."

Prince Jing squeezed her hand and suddenly said something else.

"I have already petitioned my father to make you a concubine."

Jiang Wanyue raised her head suddenly.

"But didn't the prince say before that he would ask for the title after the child was born?"

Prince Jing raised his eyebrows, with a look of satisfaction in his eyes.

"Isn't it just that Father is in a good mood? This is a rare opportunity, so I mentioned it and Father really agreed. It was also because of the incident with Ren that Father felt guilty about."

Previously, Prince Jing wanted to request that Jiang Wanyue be appointed as a concubine, but the emperor felt that she was not qualified and decided to give the title to Ren Wantang instead.

Who would have known that Ren Wantang would get into trouble before he had even stayed in the palace for half a year.

Moreover, the emperor knew that Jiang Wanyue had also received the information about the blood swallow, which almost affected the baby in her womb.

I feel even more guilty.

Of course, part of the reason for this is that the Jiang family performed well after returning to Beijing, and Jiang Guang did a good job.

Jiang Wanyue held Prince Jing's hand tightly, her face full of emotion.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I really don't know what to say..."

Prince Jing held her gently.

"I promised you, and I will never break my promise."

Jiang Wanyue was speechless for a moment.

At this moment she was really touched.

She thought, she had been calculating Prince Jing's true feelings, so now, had she succeeded?

At least in this palace, she is the number one person in Prince Jing's heart.

After Prince Jing left, Jiang Wanyue sat by the window, looking at the chrysanthemums blooming under the windowsill with a peaceful expression.

But, is it really that easy to win a man’s heart?

August passed quickly and it was September, the weather was getting colder.

It was time for the Ministry of War to prepare winter supplies, and Prince Jing became busy, often not returning home for several days.

The princess gradually recovered from her illness and took over the household responsibilities again.

Peace returned to the palace again.

One day in late August, Cui Yan was taken out of the palace by Prince Jing and met with Commander Zhu.

After coming back, Cui Yan seemed to have suffered a great shock and it took him more than ten days to recover.

During this period, Jiang Wanyue dragged her heavy body to Nianyun Pavilion to visit her, and learned from Cui Yan that Zhu Zhiwen wanted to recognize her.

What happened back then was indeed a misunderstanding.

The wet nurse was jealous of Madam Zhu's good life, and when she was seriously ill, she kept telling the two children that their father was going to remarry and would not want them.

At that time, General Zhu had just taken office as the commander of the Imperial Guards not long ago. He was busy every day and had no time to teach his children. Sometimes he could not see his children even a few times a month.

Children are easily influenced by the people around them.

Especially, that was the wet nurse who had raised them since they were young.

So, Cui Yan's brother believed what the wet nurse said.

Later, General Zhu was injured while protecting the emperor, and the palace was attacked by a secret enemy, and the two children were almost in danger. For the safety of the children, he announced to the public that the children had died of illness, and secretly asked the wet nurse to take the children back home.

Unexpectedly, after leaving Beijing, the wet nurse did not return to her hometown, but disappeared instead.

Also missing was the money that General Zhu had prepared for his two children.

By the time General Zhu found out, many days had passed.

He was shocked and sent his confidant to look for it.

The search lasted fifteen years.

Ten years ago, his men found the wet nurse and tortured her severely in an attempt to find out the whereabouts of the two children. However, they did not expect that they were too cruel and the wet nurse died.

At this point, he lost all clues about the child.

Who would have thought that five years later, after a series of twists and turns, he would unexpectedly meet his daughter!

Even though Cui Yan had lost her childhood memories and was a stranger to him, he still believed her firmly.

Because Li Chengyin looked very much like Cui Yan when they were children.

That's why he was so surprised and confused when he saw the child that day.

Finding his long-lost relatives was a great joy for Zhu Zhiwen.

But this is not the case for Cui Yan.

She was more confused.

So, after coming back, she came to Wutong Courtyard again.

After speaking out his worries, Cui Yan leaned back on the couch and let out a long sigh.

Jiang Wanyue sat upright.

"Sister, count how many times you sighed. Is this so difficult? Just ask yourself, do you want to recognize him or not?"
