"The child is truly your Majesty's, not the adulterer's. When it was discovered, the young lady was already three months pregnant."

Aunt Hua emphasized this point particularly, fearing that people would misunderstand her.

"But the young lady lost hope and her health deteriorated. She barely managed to give birth to the child but then died."

"Coincidentally, the Queen also gave birth to her children around the same time. One was born a Crown Prince, extremely noble, while the other was born in the cold palace, destined to a life of hiding."

"They are all His Majesty's children. We are unwilling to accept this."

Aunt Hua opened her eyes wide and stared at the emperor, as if questioning and resentful.

But the emperor showed no expression from beginning to end, even though he had just recently learned that he had a son, he did not show much emotion.

Aunt Hua felt bitter, but finally accepted her fate.

Indeed, who would like a child with a tainted background? Even if he was truly a prince, if the young lady had been defiled, the child would always be suspected and criticized.

Aunt Hua's heart cooled down again and became numb again.

"After the young lady died, we sent a message to the Wang family, but they didn't react at all, as if they had never had such a daughter. They said that our purpose in entering the palace had changed, and from now on we would only deliver useful information to the palace, and there was no need to pave the way for the Wang family's daughter."

Wang Jilai looked extremely ugly, and his heart sank completely.

It was very common for aristocratic families to send spies into the imperial palace, just like, wouldn't the emperor send people into aristocratic families?

It is common, but it is something that cannot be seen in public. Once it is put in the open, it is a big taboo.

Wang Jilai knew that his family might suffer a heavy loss this time.

Wang Jilai knew about the spies in the palace, but he was not directly responsible for it as his clansmen were in charge.

So he didn't know Aunt Hua, and didn't know how she was caught by the emperor. She was also very careless and told everything outside.

His mind was spinning, but Aunt Hua continued.

"I know that the Wang family has completely given up on the young lady. Besides, it's useless to talk about the young lady giving birth to a child. Maybe they will treat it as a stain and deal with her."

"But Madam Fang and I have received great kindness from the young lady, and we must repay her. We raised the little prince in the cold palace."

"The Queen is gone too, and the Crown Prince is in a bad situation, being bullied and without anyone to protect him. Aunt Hua and I feel that he was born a Crown Prince, and that he already had a huge advantage, while the little prince still cannot see the light of day."

"So, we want to help the young lady and the little prince vent their anger."

"When the Wang family sent us to the palace, they brought some secret items to help the young lady win favor. Among them was the Life-Control Gu, but we never had the chance to use it."

When they heard about the poisonous insect, Yue Zhongchi and others took a deep breath. Witchcraft was strictly prohibited in the palace.

Meng Yi had a hot temper and had already thought of something, so he couldn't help but kick Wang Jilai.

"Lord Wang is truly audacious."

Wang Jilai was caught off guard and fell to the ground. His face darkened and he shouted angrily, "General Meng, are you going to hit your colleagues?"

After saying this, he quickly kowtowed to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I know nothing about the poisonous insect incident. It was definitely not the Wang family's doing. This old slave might have just made up a rumor!"

Wang Jilai was extremely confused.

If spies were sent into the harem, the Wang family could calm the emperor's anger by paying a little price, but the art of witchcraft was not to be taken lightly.

Besides, he really doesn’t know what a poisonous insect is!

How did the family arrange the people who were in charge of the spies? They even dared to do such a deadly thing.

"Haha, Aunt Fang and I are just servants. If it weren't for the Wang family, how would we have gotten the Gu worm?"

Aunt Hua's voice was dry.

"We used the poisonous insect on the unprotected prince. We originally wanted to torture him to death, which would also be considered revenge for the young lady."

"But for some reason, Imperial Physician Zhou protected the unfavored Crown Prince. Later, the Emperor also began to pay attention to the Crown Prince."

"I didn't want to delay and activated the mother Gu, but we are not Miao people after all, and we are not familiar with using Gu. In addition, Doctor Zhou discovered a clue and actually found a pill that can put the child Gu into a deep sleep."

"The mother Gu and the child Gu have lost contact, but we also found that the child Gu is not dead. We still have a chance."

"Finally, after a few years, the offspring Gu became more and more active, and the mother Gu followed suit."

"And the little prince has grown up. Surprisingly, his eyes don't look like the emperor's or the young lady's, but like the late emperor's. This gave me and Madam Fang another idea."

"After killing the crown prince, he will find a pretext to expose that when the queen and the young lady gave birth, the midwife took the wrong child, and the little prince is the queen's. This way, he can stand before the public with his integrity."

"Speaking of which, we were able to come up with this idea thanks to the incident of the wrong child being taken away from the Bo Mansion a few years ago."

Aunt Hua spoke in great detail, describing her entire mental journey at the time.

Wang Jilai began to curse Su Lie in his heart.

What a waste, what a bastard. He didn't even know that his own daughter was taken away by mistake. He has been raising someone else's child for more than ten years. He must be mentally ill.

He was so angry that he even scolded the tribesman in charge of the spies, calling them brainless bastards. His subordinates were out of control and disobeyed orders without knowing anything.

He thought so because he was sure that the Wang family didn't know there was any prince, and would not plan to use someone else's power to replace him.

"At first, I thought the idea was too bold, and I was also worried that the little prince wouldn't be able to hold his own as crown prince."

"It was Nanny Fang who said that after the matter is accomplished, we should tell the Wang family all the truth. The Wang family will ignore a child with a stain, but will fully support a worthy prince. Then the little prince will have a backer."

Meng Yi sneered and couldn't help but kick Wang Jilai in the butt again.

This dog slave really guessed the Wang family's thoughts thoroughly.

Wasn't it that the Wang family's initial purpose in placing people in the palace was to help the Wang family girls win favor and help the Wang family girls give birth to princes and help them get to that position?

If the little prince really becomes the crown prince, the Wang family will get a great bargain and will definitely stick to him and find ways to help him secure his position.

Wang Jilai was very angry. Meng Yi's rank was not as high as his. This was an act of insubordination!

But the situation is different now, and Wang Jilai doesn't dare to get angry.

"I think it makes sense. After the Crown Prince returned to the capital, he began to try to activate the Mother Gu several times and found that Doctor Zhou's pills seemed to be ineffective."

"Originally I wanted to torture the Crown Prince, making him suffer the pain of being bitten by hundreds of ants every day, until he died little by little, but I heard that His Majesty wanted to take over the southwest."

"If Your Majesty really found the Miao people from the southwest, it would be difficult to remove the poison, so I activated the mother poison and wanted to kill the prince."

"After the Crown Prince is buried, that will be the time for the little prince to truly appear."

"pity……"

It’s a pity that the prince didn’t die, but she was also arrested, and everything came to nothing.

"The young lady from the Fang family is extremely intelligent. She learned a method to remove the poison from a book. It requires a lot of preparation, so she usually tries it at home."

"That night, the prince's poison broke out, and the young lady had no choice but to bring him back to the palace to cure the poison."

"God bless the prince, and that's how it worked."

The emperor spoke lightly.
