After returning from rebirth, the eldest sister of Hou family destroyed her household registration b

She looked at Han Changping in surprise, but the latter was speechless.

A breath caught in his throat, his eyes widened, and he soon lost his breath.

"Grandpa!" Han Lingyan was filled with grief.

Han Qizheng and other Han family members also shed tears one by one.

Amid everyone's cries, Chu Huanyan walked out of the room silently.

The last words Han Changping said before his death were all in his mind: Concubine Mei seems to be pregnant!

Although it sounds like Han Changping's speculation, if it is true that Concubine Mei was pregnant at that time, it seems that many things can be explained!

Before, she and Xiao Jinzhi couldn't figure out why Concubine Mei, who was clearly loved by the late emperor, was imprisoned in the plum forest. After the imprisonment, the late emperor seemed to visit her through a secret passage.

But if Concubine Mei is pregnant...

When the late emperor discovered that he was poisoned, he knew that he had no cure, so in order to stabilize Xiao Emperor, he specially made a canonization decree.

At the same time, Concubine Mei was imprisoned in Merlin. On the surface, it seemed that Concubine Mei had offended the late emperor and lost his favor, but in fact it was probably to protect him.

As a concubine in the harem, even if she loses her favor, she cannot leave the palace. Therefore, if the late emperor had rashly allowed Concubine Mei to leave the palace, it would have aroused suspicion, but it would have been safer if she continued to stay in the palace.

The most important thing for staying in the palace was to hide the pregnancy, otherwise it would inevitably lead to murder. Therefore, the late emperor put her under house arrest and no one else was allowed to set foot there. He also used secret passages to quietly visit her.

Perhaps the clues were discovered during the last visit, and the late emperor died in the end.

Then why did Concubine Mei not die on the same day as the late emperor?

According to this speculation, Concubine Mei should have already become pregnant at that time, and might even be about to give birth. Xiao Dihe did not kill Concubine Mei at that time, but let her die in the fire later.

One question was solved, but at the same time many more questions popped up, and even Chu Huanyan couldn't help but wonder if the child in Mei Fei's high school was still alive.

Will it happen again...

As the thoughts emerged in her mind, cold sweat broke out on Chu Huanyan's back.

It wasn't until he heard Han Lingyan's call from behind that he suddenly came back to his senses.

Chu Huanyan collected her thoughts and spoke to console her, "My condolences, Mr. Han."

"Thank you Miss Chu. I understand that people cannot be resurrected after death, and there should be no worries about my grandfather's departure. I just don't know..." Han Lingyan looked at the person in front of him, "What did my grandfather say to Miss Chu in the end?"

Chu Huanyan shook her head, "Mr. Han's voice was too weak at that time, and I didn't hear it clearly."

Han Lingyan looked at Chu Huanyan, as if he was trying to determine whether her words were true or false, but when she met Chu Huanyan's gaze, she lowered her eyes again.

"That's all. Grandpa has told her before that no matter what Miss Chu needs help with, the Han family must do their best. Since grandpa has given instructions, the Han family will definitely do it."

"Thank you, Mr. Han." Chu Huanyan looked past Han Lingyan and took a look at the situation in the room. "I won't stay and continue to disturb you. I will come to worship later."

"Okay." Han Lingyan responded, arranged for the servant to take Chu Huanyan out of the house, and then returned to the room.

Xianyue stood outside the yard and couldn't help but sigh a few words after learning that Han Changping had gone.

However, Chu Huanyan was not in the mood to listen to what she said at this time, her mind was filled with the thought that had just popped up.

Will Concubine Mei's child be still alive? If so, is it possible that it is... Xiao Jinzhi?

She herself found this idea extremely absurd. After all, from Emperor Xiao's point of view, if Xiao Jinzhi was really the flesh and blood of the former emperor, there would be no reason for him to continue to live.

Or maybe so far, she can't find any evidence to support that she can continue to live as the flesh and blood of the former emperor.

Returning to the Hou Mansion with worries, Chu Huanyan stayed up all night.

Although I tried to persuade myself more than once not to continue following this guess, my thoughts were out of control.

If Xiao Jinzhi is the flesh and blood of the former emperor, then the attitude of Emperor Xiao and Empress Wei towards him seems to be explained.

Also, there were rumors of patricide and regicide in the previous life. If the father is not the father, but the enemy who killed his father and his mother, it seems reasonable for Xiao Jinzhi to kill Emperor Xiao in revenge...

Chu Huanyan reached out and hugged the quilt tightly, curling up in the quilt.

There is no evidence, just looking at Han Changping's unclear words before his death, and guessing this out of thin air, it really doesn't make sense.

But once some thoughts arise, they are like seeds taking root and sprouting in the heart. They can no longer be covered up, buried, or disappear.

At dawn the next day, Chu Huanyan got up and washed up despite the bruises under her eyes. After having breakfast, she had someone prepare a carriage and went straight to the Prince's Mansion.

The carriage stopped outside the Prince's Mansion, and when he saw the bright red figure who happened to be returning from the early morning court, Chu Huanyan's heart, which had been in chaos since yesterday, suddenly calmed down a little.

Seeing Chu Huanyan at the door of the Prince's Mansion, Xiao Jinzhi's face immediately showed joy, but then he frowned and hurried to Chu Huanyan.

"But what happened?"

Appearing outside the Prince's Mansion so early, could there be some trouble?

"No, it's okay." Chu Huanyan quickly shook her head, looked at Xiao Jinzhi, and said, "Mr. Han went yesterday."

"I've heard about this. I'll accompany you to pay homage in two days."

Xiao Jinzhi held Chu Huanyan's hand and found that it was very cold. He frowned and pulled the person into the prince's residence. He also asked Mrs. Tang to warm Chu Huanyan's hand.

"What happened?" Xiao Jinzhi looked at Chu Huanyan seriously, "No matter what happens, you can leave it to me."

Chu Huanyan pursed her lips and lowered her eyes, "It's nothing. It's just that Mr. Han met me yesterday when he was dying. He hoped that I could find out the truth about that year. He felt... a little stressed."

Everything was just her own speculation, and there was no evidence. She really couldn't tell Xiao Jinzhi.

Even if Xiao Jinzhi clearly knew the attitudes of Queen Wei and Emperor Xiao, judging from his previous answers, he still had some blood feelings in his heart. Therefore, if the truth is really as I guessed, it will definitely hurt Xiao Jinzhi.

Chu Huanyan took a deep breath and decided not to tell the other party about this matter until there was no conclusive evidence.

"Don't be afraid. We will investigate what happened back then together. No matter what the truth is, we will face it together."

Xiao Jinzhi held Chu Huanyan's hand tightly and coaxed in a soft voice.

"What's more, we still have a long time. Sooner or later, we can find out the truth and comfort your parents' spirits in heaven."

"Okay, let's investigate together." Chu Huanyan responded, and when she spoke again, she changed the subject, "By the way, how is the fundraising going?"
