Zhou Ling never admitted that it was the stupidest act for him to go to the palace to take revenge.
Because this was an obsession that had supported him for a long time, but now, it had become a truth that he could not face.
But no matter how difficult it was, he didn't want to remain confused, so he asked: "Did you find something?"
The prince's eyes darkened, and he mocked: "There are many, which one do you want to listen to first?"
Zhou Ling said: "The one closest to the truth!"
Hearing this, the prince looked at the dim light and fell into deep thought. After a while, he said: "Before Madam Luo passed away, I went to see her for the last time."
"The so-called fetal replacement medicine was given by her sweetheart when she was young. In order to make her children believe it, she lied that it was brought from the dowry, but in fact... she trusted that person too much, and she never had any More than half a doubt."
"She also said that the man would never marry because of her, and she felt she would feel guilty if she betrayed that trust again, so she lied."
"But after knowing the truth, she had already committed suicide by taking poison."
The prince said and looked at Zhou Ling: "Do you know who that person is?"
Zhou Ling had already guessed it, but he didn't say anything.
Until the prince said: "His name is Zhou Qian, the founder of the Zhou family's business. He is also the living concubine of the Guo family, the old man Zhou who raised you."
Zhou Ling's nails were as pinched as the palm of his hand, his eyes were bright red, he said coldly: "But Mr. Zhou is married, and he also has more than one heir."
The prince nodded and said calmly: "I know, but his wife is just a cousin of the Guo family. They have been a fake couple all their lives, and all the children were taken in during the genocide."
"A side branch, the son of a loyal slave, the daughter of a cousin...and you, my nephew."
Zhou Ling laughed angrily, tears welling up in the candlelight, and growled: "Aren't you?"
The prince shook his head: "I'm not."
Zhou Ling was completely choked, his hatred and anger surged instantly, and he could hardly control himself.
But the prince seemed particularly calm and continued: "My father doted on Queen Jiang. The Guo family knew that their heirs would not be able to succeed, so they came up with the idea of hiding the twins and prepared to throw Queen Jiang a fetal replacement medicine to confuse her. she."
"If it succeeds, the Guo family will have the last laugh no matter what."
"If they failed, they might be able to frame Empress Jiang for secretly changing the prince. Who was Empress Dowager Guo at that time? Her eyes were all over the palace in the previous dynasty. She knew that her plan was flawless, but she never thought that Empress Jiang would bleed to death. And before she died, the last thing she did for her father was to frame her death on the Queen Mother Guo. Only in this way could the current emperor have excuses and reasons to liquidate the Guo family and dispose of the Guo family. Party members."
"You and I are both chess pieces, but if we think about it carefully, we are not as decisive as Queen Jiang."
"At the last moment of her life, what she wanted was to save her husband and children and use her own death to avoid future troubles."
"I'm afraid you don't know how peaceful the harem has been in the past twenty-five years, right?"
"Even the Cold Palace only has a few wild cats living there, not even a single person."
After Zhou Ling finished listening, he remembered that Gu Yan said that all this was a conspiracy by Empress Jiang to frame the Guo family in order to protect the Jiang family.
And the old emperor said that Queen Jiang died due to blood loss caused by the placenta being torn out with great force...
These things slowly overlap, and the truth is about to come out.
Empress Jiang probably really thought that she had a hemorrhage due to giving birth to two children, but before she died, she did put all the blame on Empress Dowager Guo.
The old emperor carefully investigated the matter and found clues, so it was logical that the Guo family was wiped out.
In this way, it was naturally impossible for his queen to lie. After thinking about it carefully, he realized how desperate and cruel his queen was when she said such words. Not only did it give him the opportunity to eradicate the Guo family, but also allowed them to
The children were able to grow up under his wholehearted care...
But Zhou Ling still didn't understand why his foot had to be broken?
Even if you are really cruel, wouldn’t one be enough? Why two feet?
Seemingly reading his thoughts, the prince said: "Let Li Defu tell you the rest!"
After he finished speaking, he held up his lamp and walked slowly up.
Zhou Ling saw him about to leave and called him, "Wait a minute."
The prince stopped, turned around and asked, "What else do you want?"
Zhou Ling said: "If I was the one who was taken away back then, what would you do now?"
When the prince heard this, he was slightly stunned.
But he soon replied: "If I have been living in lies and deception, then I probably won't become a very real person. As for revenge, how do you think you can get revenge without my existence?"
?”
"Then let me ask you now, if you were the prince of the East Palace and grew up under the protection of your father and elder sister. They were your relatives who made you shed tears even if you bumped into each other when you were young, what would you do?
Woolen cloth?"
After the prince finished speaking, he walked away without making any further stops this time.
Zhou Ling was also slightly stunned and silent for a long time.
But when Li Defu walked in tremblingly, his eyes darkened again and again.
