Childbearing system: The royal family is shocked to see their offspring wither away!

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the audience was silent for a moment.

Chen Zhining gave Pingnan a look.

The two of them immediately took Chen Bo and went to the side room, finding an excuse to paint.

......

In a quiet little house with few people.

"There was no one else present, we were all family, so just tell us what happened."

Then, Chen Bo smiled calmly and said, "My painting was very vivid that day, and she insisted on having me paint for her, and this is the reason."

"My stepmother told me to go back to Yongzhou to pack my luggage and return to Beijing for the New Year.

I returned to my hometown from the Yingwu Marquis's Mansion and packed my luggage."

"But after I finished cleaning up, I thought I couldn't keep spending my stepmother's money, so I thought about selling calligraphy and paintings to earn some money... so that I can buy some gifts for my stepmother and you."

"During the time when I was selling paintings, I became more cautious."

"If you don't compare or confirm something, generally... you wouldn't want a portrait of a prince, right? Why doesn't she want portraits of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the King of England?"

"Madam Changping Hou, do you want to confirm the appearance of His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince?!"

"..."

Princess Pingnan was already standing there in a daze at this time.

I had no evidence for many of the things that happened before, they were just guesses.

But this time it was different.

Chen Bo didn't know about the royal family's secret affairs, so she actually told about her aunt, the wife of Marquis Changping, buying a portrait.

Although there is still no evidence to prove that the Ninth Prince is the Queen's child, it is clear that there is definitely something wrong with the wife of Marquis Changping.

Chen Zhining looked at them and smiled slightly. She said to everyone, "Now, I have quite a few clues."

"Since the wife of the Marquis of Changping asked Chen Bo for a portrait, it is enough to show that something is wrong. She must want to confirm whether the Ninth Prince looks like his brothers and sisters at home?"

"...After all, it was known to everyone that the Queen and the Ninth Prince did not look alike, so at the time no one thought they were biological mother and son."

"But if there are brothers or cousins ​​who look alike... they will definitely become suspicious."

“What she didn’t expect was that the Ninth Prince actually looked very similar to Wei Langya.

She had already looked for a portrait, but she still didn’t expect it.”

"And this Lady of Changping had a strange look in her eyes before, and I have been observing her.

There seems to be some conflict between her and Ling Dao, and the two of them are a little unhappy. "

"...But what makes me more curious is that the wife of Marquis Changping and this virtuous concubine Zhang Da Ying, they seem to know each other."

"Exactly."

Princess Pingnan nodded and said, "Don't look down on the wife of Marquis Changping. She is my mother's concubine sister, but in fact, the relationship between the two of them is not good. It can be said that they don't have a very good sisterly relationship."

After all, one is born of a legitimate wife and the other is born of a concubine, so naturally they are treated differently. She must feel that her status is lower than her mother's."

"I see."

Princess Pingnan felt increasingly depressed. "When we were in Yongzhou before, she always tried to harm my mother, which led to my grandfather liking the wife of Marquis Changping more and not liking my mother very much."

"But later on, because of her status as a legitimate daughter, my mother entered the palace... and later on, I don't know how she became the wife of the Marquis of Changping."

After all, a concubine's daughter, no matter how powerful her status is, generally speaking, cannot become the wife of Marquis Changping.

Princess Pingnan sighed as she spoke.

"If she exchanged the youngest son in the queen mother's belly with someone else because of jealousy or something... Actually, I should say something that I shouldn't say. This is also possible. I have suspected this before."

"But after the baby died in my arms, I never thought about it again."

"But a few days ago, she and Ling Dao teamed up, and it seemed that she was the one who poisoned Ling Dao... Even if Ling Dao gave those reasons, I had long been wary of Ling Dao and Madam Changping Hou, so I didn't believe them."

Chen Zhining nodded: "If so, do you know what I want to say?"

Princess Pingnan nodded, her face looking very gloomy.

"If you want to exchange children, first you need someone who is proficient in medicine, who can serve the queen mother personally, and you need a certain amount of power. You also need a certain amount of conflict to divert attention."

"Like a puzzle, he is proficient in medical knowledge and serves his mother closely, which makes him a spirit sword."

"A certain force, that is my aunt."

"The conflict diverts attention, namely Concubine Chen, Chen Xing, and Zhang Da Ying!"

"If it is really as we suspected, she and Zhang Yingying, as well as Concubine Chen from back then, have teamed up to bribe my mother and the spirit sword beside her... to exchange the child in my arms. That would be a huge undertaking."

"And the child in her arms, is she faking her death, or what? Or was she born by the palace maid Chen Xing?!"

Chen Zhining said slowly: "...Based on my judgment, I think it might be a fake death.

After all, you all said that Lingdao comes from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, so she must know some poisons.

And from what the Queen said, it seems she knows quite a lot."

"In this case, it is not impossible to fake death."

"Let her die in your arms, so you will definitely think that the child is dead."

"It's possible! It's possible!"

Princess Pingnan nodded and said excitedly.

"If I had only seen Wei Langya's cousin before, I wouldn't be sure about the others."

"But now... seeing the abnormality of the spirit sword and the abnormality of the wife of Marquis Changping, something is not right. I feel that something is not right."

"On the New Year's Day, I will observe carefully to see what conspiracy my aunt has."

Chen Zhining nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, when Feicui comes back from Yongzhou, we will observe carefully then."

"Fei Cui should bring us a lot of news from Yongzhou..."

"Now we have a pretty clear understanding of the context of the matter."

"Now we just need evidence in our hands to confirm that the Ninth Prince is the Queen's child."

“And this evidence needs to be gradually broken down from the three of them: Ling Dao, Madam Changping Hou, and Zhang Ying.

They need to provide evidence.”

"Let's first get the news about the Jade back and tell Her Majesty the Queen that there is something wrong with the Spirit Sword!"

"After that, we can see through Ling Dao's mouth what the wife of Marquis Changping and Zhang promised to do."
