But things were different with Ye Qingwu.

During this period, he visited the Regent's Palace every day; there must have been something strange going on.

"Have you two said enough?"

Seeing Zhan Siwan and Su Yan blocking her way without any intention of moving aside, Ye Qingwu felt annoyed.

"Sixth Princess, since you are in the palace, as a princess, you should know what the rules are."

Ye Qingwu glanced at the sky; it was already quite late.

After saying that, Ye Qingwu pushed the two of them aside and headed towards the palace gate.

"Sister Su Yan, be careful."

Seeing that Su Yan was about to stumble and fall to the ground, Zhan Siwan quickly reached out to help her up.

"Sister Su Yan, are you alright?"

Zhan Siwan asked with a concerned expression.

"I'm fine, it's just that the Regent's wife..."

"This Ye Qingwu is simply going too far!"

"Sister Su Yan, let's not worry about her. I'll take you inside to treat the Empress Dowager first."

"it is good."

Su Yan nodded, and when her gaze fell on the bracelet on Zhan Siwan's hand, the corners of her lips unconsciously turned up.

It seems that the person wasn't lying to me. As long as I wear this bracelet, the other party will unconditionally consider my needs.

Otherwise, even if Zhan Siwan's attitude towards her was different, it wasn't to the point where she cared about everything.

If His Highness the Regent could do the same.

As Ye Qingwu exited the palace gates, she saw the Regent's carriage already parked not far away.

As she approached the carriage, the curtain was pulled up from the inside.

"Your Majesty?"

"How did you come."

She remembered that Zhan Sijing had been dealing with various matters these past few days, and even when he went to his study, there were many official documents piled high on his desk.

"Naturally, we've come to escort the Princess back to the manor."

Zhan Sijing spoke gently to Ye Qingwu.

"Has Your Highness finished dealing with everything?"

After boarding the carriage, it began to move smoothly. Ye Qingwu looked at the man in front of her and asked him a question.

"His Majesty has been unwell these past few days, and the unfinished memorials and matters have fallen to me."

"I only heard that a divine physician appeared in the palace yesterday and treated the emperor, which improved his condition."

"A miracle doctor?" Ye Qingwu was taken aback, feeling a sense of unease.

"Your Highness, you said that the divine physician entered the palace yesterday?"

That doesn't make sense. If that's the case, then after treating the Emperor, the other party would definitely treat the Empress Dowager as well.

She should have heard something about it, how come she has no news at all?

Then there's Zhan Siwan. Judging from her actions of blocking my way with Su Yan just now, Zhan Siwan must also be unaware of the matter of the divine doctor.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have said those things at the time; there are just too many strange things about it.

"Your Highness, has something happened?"

Seeing that Ye Qingwu frowned and remained silent after hearing what he had just said, Zhan Sijing asked worriedly.

"Is it related to the Empress Dowager's illness?"

"You can say that."

Ye Qingwu nodded.

Ye Qingwu didn't hide anything from Zhan Sijing and immediately told him about what had happened in the past few days.

"According to what the princess says, I have never seen this so-called miracle doctor."

"As for the Empress Dowager..."

"Your Highness, there are highly skilled physicians both inside and outside the palace. If Your Highness does not wish for..."

Ye Qingwu shook her head, looking at Zhan Sijing with some worry.

"Your Highness, the matter concerning the Empress Dowager is no longer as simple as whether or not she wants to be treated; it is more than that..."

Ye Qingwu suddenly paused, unsure whether she should reveal her suspicions to Zhan Sijing.

If that matter is true, it would be a significant shock to both Zhan Sijing and the Emperor, and could even cause turmoil in the entire court.

"Your Highness, have you ever heard of changing one's luck?"

Ye Qingwu remained silent for a long time before suddenly asking Zhan Sijing a question.

Zhan Sijing found Ye Qingwu's actions strange, but nodded, "I've heard of them."

"I've heard the Imperial Advisor mention the so-called 'changing of fortunes' before. It involves swapping the luck of two people. But does the Princess Consort say that this is also related to the current medical treatment?"

"Not only that."

"Besides changing one's luck, Your Highness also has a way of changing one's fate. Judging from the treatment you've been giving the Empress Dowager recently, the reason she's been unconscious is because she's suffering from the backlash of her luck."

"As for the real reason, it is probably related to the Emperor."

Upon hearing Ye Qingwu's words, Zhan Sijing's expression changed, and he became serious.

He knew that Ye Qingwu would never say something without a reason.

Not to mention something like exchanging one's life.

"Your Highness, do you mean someone has altered the Emperor's destiny..." Zhan Sijing said, realizing something was amiss.

"The Empress Dowager would never do that; she is the Emperor's biological mother."

Seeing how certain Zhan Sijing was, Ye Qingwu nodded.

"Your Highness is right. The Empress Dowager would never do such a thing, but what if it were someone else?"

"If the Empress Dowager were to collude with others to switch the Emperor's other destiny, wouldn't that be possible?"

Zhan Sijing froze, clearly shocked by Ye Qingwu's words.

His gaze was fixed on Ye Qingwu, and he asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, how certain is there about this matter?"

"Based on my previous guesses and my observations over this period of time, I'm 90% sure."

As for the last point she left behind, Ye Qingwu hesitated whether she should let the person involved know.

Even though she was Zhan Sijing's queen, some things were more shocking to her than if she had received the answer herself.

Besides, she had already made herself so clear; she didn't believe Zhan Sijing would have no doubts whatsoever.

As for the rest, she'd better let Zhan Sijing find the answer himself.

"Your Highness, do you know what symptoms a person whose fate has been switched might have?" Zhan Sijing asked Ye Qingwu.

This matter is of utmost importance; if some people find out, it could cause turmoil in the entire court. We must be extremely cautious.

Ye Qingwu gave Zhan Sijing a deep look, and then said, "Being switched at birth will inevitably lead to many hardships, and even some unforeseen disasters."

"Furthermore, the Emperor's destiny is extraordinary and not just anyone can bear it; there must be a certain blood relationship between them."

Zhan Sijing was stunned by Ye Qingwu's words. He lowered his eyes, and seemed to vaguely sense something unusual.

Still uncertain, she asked Ye Qingwu again, "Your Highness, do you mean we must be related by blood?"

"Yes." Ye Qingwu nodded again, this time with absolute certainty in her voice.

Just as the two women were talking, the carriage stopped outside the Regent's Palace.

Ye Qingwu looked at the man in front of her. She knew that she had made her point so clearly, and Zhan Sijing should have no reaction at all.

Unless he is...
