The blacksmith lady is killing people in the harem, and her son is responsible for it.

On the official road to Beijing, two simple horse-drawn carriages were speeding along the road.

In front of the carriage, a middle-aged man with a big beard was driving the carriage himself.

Inside the carriage, there was a middle-aged woman in her forties, with two children beside her.

"Mom, can we see my sister this time?"

The 7-year-old girl looked at Xia Shuhua timidly.

The middle-aged woman was Xia Shuhua, also the girl Li Chunhua who was once adopted by the Li family.

It’s just that Li Chunhua has lost her memory and no longer remembers what happened.

She was injured in the war and was rescued, but because she lost her memory, she forgot all her family members.

I even forgot my own name.

Fortunately, she was rescued. She was pregnant at that time. The man she is marrying now is her savior.

The 11-year-old boy was very courageous. He shook his big head and said, "Didn't the servant of the Xia family say that my elder sister is now the Crown Princess? When she sees me, she will definitely recognize me."

The young boy was right. If Qin Wan saw his afro, she would definitely recognize him.

The young boy’s name is Cao Zeyu, and he shares the same surname with his stepfather Cao Kun.

Xia Shuhua was pregnant at the time, and Cao Zeyu was Qin Wan's biological brother from the same mother and father.

Xia Shuhua was also uneasy. She had no feelings for the Xia family. Although she heard from the Xia family's servants that Old Madam Xia was very happy to find her, she had no impression of her former mother at all.

As for her daughter who had become the Crown Princess, Cao Xia was also worried.

She was not sure whether the high and mighty Crown Princess would recognize her as her mother, and whether she could accept her remarrying.

Cao Xia had to remarry because it was difficult for her to survive as a pregnant woman.

After giving birth to the child, she slowly got along with Cao Kun and saw that he was truly kind to her son. She also learned that all the villagers in her former village had been killed by the Hu people and she had no relatives left.

Only then did she agree to marry Cao Kun, so that they could be together and rely on each other.

Cao Kun, with a big beard, listened to the conversation in the carriage with no expression on his face.

Looking ahead at the towering city walls from afar, I felt mixed emotions.

He didn't expect that after being away from the capital for many years, he would return to Chang'an City again.

"Yunniang, we have arrived in Chang'an City!"

The two children in the carriage lifted up the curtains.

Cao Zeyu came out of the car and sat next to Cao Kun, "Dad, I'll sit next to you and watch!"

Cao Kun thought highly of this son he had raised. "Okay, then sit tight and don't fall off."

"Don't worry, Dad!"

The carriage following behind now moved to the front and led the way.

The Xia family went out to look for their daughter this time, so naturally the carriage would go to the Xia family first.

After entering the city gate, Cao Zeyu looked around curiously.

He had only been to the county town since he was a child. Now that he had arrived in Chang'an City and seen the prosperity of Chang'an City, his eyes seemed not enough.

After passing through the area where the poor lived and gradually approaching the rich area, Cao Zeyu discovered that when people on the road saw him, they began to whisper with their companions.

And while those people were talking, they were pointing at his head.

Cao Zeyu had been talked about before, and as he did before, he bared his teeth at those who pointed fingers at him.

"Dad, the people in the capital are also very bad. They must be talking about me and saying bad things about me!"

Cao Kun also discovered that the closer the carriage got to the wealthy area, the more pedestrians on the road stopped to look at them.

And he was obviously talking about his eldest son, "Yu'er, why don't you go into the carriage and hide."

Cao Zeyu bared his teeth at the passers-by again, "No, I want to sit outside. I'm not afraid of being seen, humph!"

In fact, Cao Zeyu didn’t know that those people were not saying bad things about him, but were guessing his identity.

When they saw him sitting in the carriage, they immediately made way for him.

When they saw his carriage, they all made way for it.

Cao Kun also discovered something. When he passed by ordinary wealthy areas and arrived at the streets where dignitaries lived, the horse-drawn carriages of those people still gave way to them.

Cao Kun saw clearly that the carriage just now was the one carrying a third-rank official, and now it actually took the initiative to make way for them.

This is so unusual!

Cao Kun suppressed the doubts in his mind and followed the Xia family's servants to the Xia Mansion.

Cao Kun didn't know that rumors had already spread in the capital as soon as they entered the Yongchang Marquis's Mansion.

At the same time, the spies hidden in various families in the capital began to move and delivered the news to their masters.

The news that was spread was that a young boy with an afro entered the Yongchang Earl's mansion.

Now all the ministers in the court know that it was the Xia family that took the lead in supporting the Crown Princess's fundraising. There are also rumors that the Crown Princess looks similar to the girl from the Xia family.

Some people in the capital had long doubted the identity of the Crown Princess.

Qin Wan was lying on the couch at this time, listening to the little lion reciting poems.

Ever since Qin Wan became pregnant, no one in the Eastern Palace allowed Qin Wan to touch her tools anymore.

Qin Wan now has some free time and is resting in the East Palace to take care of her pregnancy.

Ever since the little lion found out that his mother was pregnant, he has been clamoring to accompany his younger brother to study.

Zhao Zhen was very happy when she heard the little lion say that he was her younger brother.

The little lion now comes over every day and reads to Qin Wan, under the pretext of reading to his younger brother.

Qin Wan listened to the little lion's small voice reciting poetry, and it was really a hypnotic song.

When Qin Wan was in a daze, Gui Xi ran in hurriedly, "Crown Princess, there is news from outside the palace."

Qin Wan opened her eyes lazily, "Oh? What's the matter?"

"Crown Princess, the spies outside the palace said that two carriages from other places entered the Yongchang Marquis's mansion this afternoon."

Qin Wan thought of what Old Madam Xia had said before and straightened her expression.

In fact, she didn't quite believe that the original owner's mother was still alive.

She felt that the Xia family might want to climb up to the Eastern Palace.

The original owner's life in her uncle Li's family was full of painful memories, and when she went to the Li family, she was only eight years old. In the original owner's memory, there were very few memories of her childhood.

All that's left is the pain of the past.

Qin Wan traveled back to the original owner's body and thought less about the past.

"Crown Princess, I heard from the people downstairs that there is a young man sitting in the carriage. That young man... young man..."

"What's wrong? Why are you hesitating?"

The little lion also looked over curiously, "Gui Xi, why did you become a stutterer!"

Gui Xi leaned forward and said, "That young man's hair is the same as the emperor's grandson's!"

Qin Wan: “….”

Is it such a coincidence, could that young man be the original owner’s younger brother?

The little lion's eyes sparkled as he trotted over to Gui Xi and tilted his head to look at him, "You said his hair is the same as mine?"

Gui Xi nodded, "Yes! Your Highness!"
