"Sister-in-law?" Yun Shang was shocked. "Your brother hasn't given up on Ning Qian yet? Ning Qian has been Lady Xiang of the State of Xia, and she has been pregnant. The baby in her belly is a prince and princess of the State of Xia. "
Wang Jinyan lowered her head and drew circles on the ground unconsciously with her feet. She murmured, "I have persuaded my brother, but he said that he will marry her no matter what. I've tried my best to persuade him, but he's still like this. I have no choice... "
Yun Shang frowned and sighed. After a long time, she said, "I know. You can go back first. Be more careful in the Palace. Try your best to avoid being seen by His Majesty and Her Majesty. If someone noticed something, just ask Ning Qian for help. "
Hearing Yun Shang's words, Wang Jinyan knew that Yun Shang had forgiven her, so she was happy and said with a smile, "Okay. It's so boring in the Palace. Now that you're here, I'll have your companion." Then she ran away with a smile.
Seeing her run out, Yun Shang smiled helplessly and sighed, "Why are you still so reckless?" After a pause, she remembered that the excuse she asked her to come here was to take osmanthus cake, but she didn't take anything. What should she explain if someone asked her?
Although Wang Jinyan was straightforward, she was not stupid and was able to deal with it. Thinking of this, Yun Shang picked up the files and unfolded it.
It turned out that Xiang Wen and Xiang Fu were twins. They were both born on the leap April 31st in the 7th year of Mingqi. They were born in Xinghua village next to the Jin City. In the 21st year of Mingqi, his father was addicted to gambling and lost all his money. He had no choice but to sell his two children to the Palace. The two of them used to be eunuchs in the Empress Dowager's palace. After the Empress Dowager died, Xia Huanyu transferred the two of them to the Taiji Palace to do some chores.
Qin Yi also looked at the files behind Yun Shang and murmured, "It seems there's nothing wrong. If they used to serve the Empress Dowager and then transferred to the Taiji Palace, they should be reliable."
After a long silence, [云裳] asked, "is it the emperor's year?"
Qin Yi nodded her head and didn't know whether she should laugh or cry. "Your Highness has been in the State of Xia for such a long time, but you don't even know the present reign tile of the state. If others know, those madams in the Palace will definitely say that you are impolite."
Paying no attention to Qin Yi's words, Yun Shang calculated in her mind and said indifferently, "The 7th year of Mingqi should be twenty-two years ago. If I'm not wrong, there was only thirty days in the leap April of that year, so April 31st didn't exist."
Qin Yi was stunned. Seeing Yun Shang's determined look, Qin Yi asked, "Your Highness, do you mean that there is some mistake in the files?"
"It's not a mistake. The files are fake." Yun Shang smiled coldly. "Generally speaking, since Xiang Wen and Xiang Fu entered the Palace in the 21th year of Min
because your mother had been living in the Cold palace when you were young. Is that true?"
Yun Shang pushed the strings of the Guqin hard and smiled, "What Your Majesty said is true. When I was young, I thought it was annoying to have a biological mother in the Cold Palace My mother should be the noble Empress. At that time, I was young and ignorant. If anyone mentioned my background, I would definitely teach her a lesson."
"Really? So you are not close to your biological mother? I heard that later the Emperor of the State of Ning has taken your mother out of the Cold Palace, and now she has been promoted as a noble consort. Besides, she has given birth to a prince who is the only prince in the State of Ning." The Empress kept staring at Yun Shang.
Yun Shang didn't know what the Empress wanted to do, so she raised her head and smiled calmly. "It might be offensive, but just imagine if Your Majesty were abandoned by your biological mother and couldn't see her for 15 years, What would Your Majesty do?
Hearing this, the Empress smiled quietly, with a bit of indifference in her eyes, but did not answer.
Yun Shang hurriedly said, "Sorry, I was being impolite."
Then she continued, "It is an undeniable fact that she is my mother. I respect her, but I don't have an affinity with her. After all, the loss in fifteen years is an irreparable regret in my life. "
The Empress smiled quietly. "You are really a straightforward woman."
"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty." Yun Shang didn't bother to beat around the bush with the Empress anymore, so she said, "That's why I haven't recognized her hairpin and handkerchief until my maid, who used to be my mother's close maid, told me. Why did Your Majesty give these two things to me?" Yun Shang plucked the strings for a while and the music was melodious. When her eyes fell on the strings, she noticed some blood stains. She got a cut on her finger probably because she hadn't played for a long time. Yun Shang lightly wiped the blood off the strings.
