Chapter 480 Replacement
"Are you..." Xiao Lingjiang asked.

The old woman raised her eyes and looked around. There were people coming and going in the Governor's Mansion, and it was not a place to talk.

She approached Xiao Lingjiang slightly, lowered her head and said in a low voice: "The old woman has a clue about the person in the painting that the princess is looking for, please ask the princess to speak."

"Oh?" Xiao Lingjiang raised his eyebrows, "Then you come with me." After speaking, he led the old woman to a quiet alley next to him.

Qing Zhu and He Zheng followed closely two steps away from her, protecting her at any time, while the other kept a close eye on the old woman's every move, lest she would do anything unexpected.

Now Mei's quietness is abnormal, and she doesn't have to use any moves.Although the princess has martial arts skills, people around them should be more careful.

Walking to the depths of the alley, Xiao Lingjiang stopped and looked at the old woman standing in front of her with her head bowed: "Now you can speak with confidence."

Hearing this, the old woman fell to her knees on the ground with a plop.

"Also ask the princess to help me find my poor daughter!"

Looking for someone?

Didn't she say that she had clues about the person in the painting to tell herself?
Xiao Lingjiang looked at the sincere old woman and frowned slightly: "My lady, if you are looking for someone, you should go to the government. I am not from Chizhou, so I may not be able to help you."

"Help, help!" The old woman looked up at Xiao Lingjiang eagerly, "The person in the painting that the princess is looking for is my poor daughter Cen Niang!"

Xiao Lingjiang couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, feeling a bit unbelievable: "You mean...the woman in the picture posted in the city is your daughter?"

She looked at the old woman, who was hunched over, her hair was almost white, and the exposed upper half of her face was covered with wrinkles.

Although I haven't seen all the descriptions of her appearance, it really doesn't look like she can give birth to the woman in the painting.

What's more, the person in the painting is from the Mei family. When Xiao Lingjiang first met the girl in the wasteland, the girl was dressed in plain clothes and materials, but her manners were quite elegant.

She later seized her home and became Princess Yongmu, no matter what, wouldn't she let her mother fall into such a situation?

The old woman nodded: "I know the princess won't trust me easily,"

She suppressed the grief in her heart, and stretched out her hand to remove the cloth covering her face: "Although I look old and ugly now, I still look somewhat similar to Niang Cen..."

Xiao Lingjiang took a closer look and found that the old woman's face was also old, the right half of her cheek seemed to have been scalded by something, and a palm-sized scar covered most of the side face.

However, if you look closely, you can see that her eyebrows, eyes, nose and lips are indeed printed out of the same mold as that of the woman in the painting.

If one ignores her age and the scars on her face, she is indeed somewhat similar to the person in the painting, and one can imagine that she must have been a beautiful lady when she was young.

The old woman revealed memories and sadly talked about the past.

At the beginning, she was already a married woman, but she was tempted for a while, and gave birth to Niang Cen with the eldest son of the Mei family.Mei Lang wanted to take their mother and daughter into the mansion but was blocked, and she and Mei Niang were forced to leave Chizhou with her useless husband.

To be human, sometimes you just have to die.Since Mei Lang didn't miss their mother and daughter either, she simply stopped thinking about being in the family's backyard and focused on raising Cen Niang.

Unexpectedly, when Cen Niang was seven or eight years old, she was suddenly taken back by the people of the Mei family.

She was reluctant to let go in every possible way, but thinking that her daughter would go back this time, maybe she had gone to live a good life, so she could only reluctantly let go.

This difference is three years.

Later her husband fell ill, she was alone and she really missed Cen Niang, so she secretly went back to Chizhou City to inquire about Cen Niang in private, but no one had ever heard of such a young lady in the Mei family.

Later, she managed to sneak into Mei's house and took a job in the back kitchen, but she still couldn't hear anything about Cen Niang.

She felt a chill in her heart, wondering if she had been cheated at the beginning.

At this time, she happened to catch a glimpse of the person who led Cen Niang away in the mansion. That person was the close friend of Mei Qu, the head of the Mei family, who had always acted on the orders of the head of the family.

Since he is indeed a member of the Mei family, Cen Niang must have been picked up by the Mei family.

The point is, the Mei family obviously took her back, why the people in the mansion don't know about her at all?Where is Niang Cen now?

She made up her mind to find out the truth and find her daughter.

So he found a job of collecting slops, secretly pondered the whereabouts of Mei Qu and his attendants for several years, and finally heard about Cen Niang in a small courtyard in the city.

But for some reason, Cen Niang has never been able to leave the house, and she has never met her before.

She gritted her teeth cruelly and ruined most of her face. With her culinary skills, she sneaked into the small courtyard and became a cook, and then slowly contacted Cen Niang.

Only after that did she realize that Cen Niang had been living such a miserable life for the past five or six years!
The sons and daughters are all a piece of flesh that fell from the mother's body!

She was heartbroken, and she became much older all of a sudden, but she could only hate herself for not being able to take Cen Niang away, so she just stayed with her like this and tried to make up for her.

Time flies, and it is three or four years in a blink of an eye.

She thought that when the mother and daughter could only live together like this, things seemed to turn around.

At that time, Cen Niang had a high fever and was unconscious. Later, after she escaped from death, she suddenly opened her eyes. She was gifted in medicine and spiritual healing.

In addition, Mei Jiulang's body has gradually improved a lot after years of recuperation, and Cen Niang finally got rid of the fate of being blood-taken.

The mother and daughter were more free, Cen Niang also rented a small courtyard for her and placed her there.

However, since then, the mother and daughter seem to be divorced.

She always felt that Niang Cen was no longer the Niang Cen she used to be, her temperament and preferences had changed a lot, the mother and daughter felt separated by something, and Niang Cen came to see her less and less.

She was uneasy, but thinking that at least her daughter was still alive, her hanging heart gradually settled down.

But after Niang Cen visited her once in the autumn of the year before last, she completely lost the news.

Now seeing the portraits posted in the city, she hastily found Xiao Lingjiang. Since Princess Yong'an also wants to find Niang Cen, no matter what her purpose is, maybe she can help her find the trace of her daughter?
Listening to the old woman's words, Xiao Lingjiang's heart couldn't help but move, if the old woman hadn't lied, this Cen Niang should be the woman who took her away, the current Princess Yongmu, right?
Just from what she said just now, it seems that this Cen Niang is not Bi Cen Niang.

Her real daughter, that miserable mother Cen who was exchanged for blood, seemed to be replaced quietly on the day she fell into a coma with a high fever...
