"I am an orphan. I have had no parents since I was a child."
When she heard the word "orphan", Queen Chu's heart felt inexplicably.
"Poor child, how did you grow up?"
"I have a good fortune. I have met many kind-hearted people who raised me. I also have a mother-in-law. Although she is blind, she treats me like her own son."
Ye Feng raised his lips and smiled, his smile stained with tears, which made him look even more distressed.
Empress Chu completely believed in the so-called good destiny.
If he was lucky, how could he be so seriously injured? The injuries on his arms were new injuries plus old injuries, and the old injuries were unknown for how many years.
This kid...
Growing up, I must have suffered a lot.
"I also have a biological son, but it's a pity that he was snatched away the day he was born. I didn't even have time to hold him once. If he was still alive, he should be about the same age as you." Queen Chu wiped her tears gently.
Ye Feng clenched his fists tightly where Empress Chu could not see him. He tried to calm down, but his teeth were still chattering.
"Why...why was it taken away?"
"have no idea."
This is her lifelong pain.
She didn't know whether the people who robbed her child were for imperial power or to take revenge on them.
If it was to retaliate against them, eighteen years would be enough.
If it was for the imperial power, as long as he had the ability to support the Chu State, and as long as her son was returned to her, they would consider giving up the throne.
But it just didn’t happen...
The people who robbed her of Lin'er have not come forward in eighteen years, let alone made any demands to them.
"If your son knew that you missed him so much, he would also be very happy."
"Really?"
"Really, although I don't know why I became an orphan, I have always believed that my parents must have had no choice but to give up on me. Maybe they have been looking for me."
"You are such a good boy. It would be great if you were my child."
Ye Feng lowered his head, not daring to let her notice anything strange.
God knows how much he wants to believe her.
But he can't.
With his dirty past, he is not worthy of the emperor and empress of Chu who reigns supreme over the world.
"You know, before you said this to me, I have been thinking that my Lin'er will definitely not forgive us. He will definitely think that we deliberately abandon him and don't want him, and... he will never come with us.
We recognize each other."
"Madam, you are too worried. Parents in the world are willing to abandon their children unless they have no choice. Your children will definitely understand you. Maybe he has been looking for you, maybe he has been praying for you."
Not far away.
Gu Chunuan looked at this scene thoughtfully.
She touched her chin out of habit.
Who is this woman?
Ye Feng has always been cold and taciturn, and doesn't like to be close to strangers. How could he cook food for her with his own hands and take the initiative to chat with her so much?
Could it be...
Is this woman Ye Feng’s biological mother?
The more Gu Chunuan thought about it, the more he felt it was possible.
"Fuguang, go find out who this woman is."
"Master, she is the queen of the Chu Kingdom. The Emperor of Chu only married one queen in his life, and he was deeply affectionate for this queen. They had a son, but he was snatched away the day he was born. His life and death are still unknown."
"After the prince of the Chu State was snatched away, the Queen of Chu went mad for a time. After being cured by the imperial master, she spent ten years chanting sutras and chanting Buddha in Baiyun Temple. She was dying several times because of excessive thoughts about her son. The Emperor of Chu was busy with state affairs and could not accompany him for a long time.
When the Emperor of Chu was with him, he forcibly took the Queen of Chu back to the Kingdom of Chu."
