After the demon concubine returned to the palace, the emperor and I switched bodies

Chapter 182
"Sister?"

Cui Canwen vaguely felt that Rong Xiuyi had hit the right note and provided her with a new clue.

A key clue that allows her to connect it all.

If that were the case, she would be willing to give Rong Xiuyi ten more male favors.

Jin Jieyu knelt on the ground, raised her small face and looked at Cui Canwen, "Mother, my concubine and sister are from Jiangnan."

"When he was young, he was bought by the steward of the Jin family who went to Jiangnan to handle business. He was then brought to the capital and raised in the Jin family's farm."

"Back then, His Majesty Nami, the concubine was hastily recorded under the name of Seventh Concubine, and entered the palace instead of the eldest lady."

"The younger sister has become the eldest lady's personal maid."

"The concubine didn't intend to deceive the king, I implore the empress to learn from it."

Cui Canwen frowned slightly, "Where is the real Miss Jin?"

"If what I expected is correct, I should have entered the eldest princess's mansion."

Jin Jieyu's words will never stop until she is shocked.

Cui Canwen's pupils shrank and her heart pounded.

The eldest princess, the late emperor's eldest sister and Liang Shaoyuan's aunt.

All this time, she had never paid any attention to the eldest princess.

Seeing that Cui Canwen didn't say anything, Jin Jieyu continued, "I'm just guessing."

"When I was admitted to the mansion to learn the rules and etiquette, I accidentally, or not accidentally, planned to escape while taking advantage of the Jin Mansion's banquet. When I went to find my sister, I touched the machine and entered the secret room in the rockery, and overheard The words of Qi Yiniang and a strange man."

"Qi Yiniang calls that man Chang Shi."

"Farewell, and ask the Eldest Princess how she is."

"Because I'm separated by a secret room, I can't hear it clearly."

"But in the evening the day after the banquet, the lady got into a carriage and disappeared."

"That's when I stopped thinking about running away."

"Come here, I'm worried about my sister."

"Secondly, I don't think I can escape."

"My preparations for escaping were to deal with the Jin family, but that preparation was far from enough."

"Therefore, I feel free to obey the instructions of the master and Qi Yiniang and enter the palace in place of the young lady."

Cui Canwen pursed her lips, her thoughts swirling.

The eldest princess, titled Zhao Ming.

In her memory, apart from the death of the first emperor, Princess Zhaoming had never stepped out of the princess mansion.

He does not attend banquets, pays no attention to secular affairs, and has never been married. However, he has a son whose biological father is unknown.

After so many years in Beijing, she had only met the eldest princess once.

The eldest princess was neither sad nor happy, her eyes were numb and indifferent, like a walking corpse, without worries.

More like statues than those in Buddhist temples.

The late emperor's funeral ceremony was over, and the eldest princess returned home without stopping.

In all these years, she had not even heard any rumors about the eldest princess.

It seems that this person is transparent as long as he does not appear in front of others.

"Then why are you telling me so frankly now?"

Cui Canwen calmed down her chaotic and complicated thoughts and asked calmly.

Jin Jieyu said softly, "I have kept to myself since entering the palace. I don't make any trouble or make trouble. I live by my appearance. I don't fight back when I'm hit or scolded. I'm a very dull person. When I say hello, the empress rarely asks me anything." , let alone come specifically to my concubine’s palace.”

"Now that the empress has come, she must have doubts."

"If you ask how many people in the world can ignore the power of the eldest princess, then there must be the empress."

"It's impossible for me to rely on myself."

"If your Majesty still has any questions, I will tell you everything I know."

"I really have a doubt." Cui Canwen was not polite.

"Since the housekeeper of Jin Mansion can choose you sisters, then you sisters must be outstanding."

"Can you tell me?" Jin Jieyu pursed her lips and looked very hesitant. "I, I have learned the art of killing people since I was a child."

Cui Canwen: Rong Xiuyi is lingering at the gate of hell every day.

do not judge a book by it's cover.

"Since you have such ability, why do you still let Rong Xiuyi bully you?"

Jin Jieyu lowered her head and said with difficulty, "It was just a small fight at the beginning, I didn't take it seriously."

"Later, I received a mission to keep Rong Xiuyi safe in the harem."

"I have become Rong Xiuyi's lackey."

"Mother, everything I said is true."

"Just like Rong Xiuyi's little arms and legs, if I want to hurt her, it would be easier than breaking chopsticks."

Cui Canwen helped Jin Jieyu up, "You should keep these words in your heart."

"Otherwise, Rong Xiuyi would be so angry that he would jump off his feet."

"The reason why she hates you is that her father was incited by Qi Yiniang of Jin Mansion and sent her to the palace regardless of her wishes."

"When you enter the palace, you have to fight even if you don't have to fight."

"She has become Concubine Pei's shadow. Day after day, she is no longer herself."

"You are carrying the identity of Qi Yi Niang's daughter, and she hates everything."

"As for what you said, I will send someone to investigate."

We must find out what kind of medicine is hidden in the gourd of the eldest princess.

Cui Canwen looked at the faintly shaking figure outside the window and sneered silently, "Jin Jieyu, I will reciprocate this favor and help you get rid of this spy."

"After the interrogation, a new person will be sent to replace him."

"Don't show off your flaws and scare the enemy away."

After leaving the Yaohua Palace, Cui Canwen immediately began to look through the palace's information about the eldest princess Zhaoming.

But, nothing.

This is really unreasonable.

While Cui Canwen sent people to secretly investigate, she went to Xingqing Hall herself.

Just because she doesn't know, doesn't mean Queen Mother Xie doesn't know.

"Why are you asking about Princess Zhaoming?"

Xingqing Hall was filled with a strong smell of medicine. Empress Dowager Xie looked tired and spoke in confusion.

"I heard some rumors today and became curious. I asked my mother to clarify my doubts."

Cui Canwen stepped forward and rubbed the temples for Queen Mother Xie, and said calmly.

"You don't want to say more, and Aijia doesn't ask in detail." Queen Mother Xie pulled Cui Canwen over, her cloudy eyes filled with a kind smile.

"She can't finish a sentence."

"Back then, her temper was not what it is now."

"She is several years older than Ai Jia and the late emperor. When Emperor Gaozu started the rebellion, the eldest princess Zhaoming was entrusted with important responsibilities even though she was a woman."

"She had a very good relationship with the late emperor and could trust each other with her life."

"Before I got engaged to the late Emperor, I had heard about her and the late Emperor's deeds. They had a deep love between sister and brother."

"The story of the late Emperor who was ambushed and Princess Zhaoming risking her own life to rescue her has been sung for a while."

"It's just that I've always been famous and never met."

"It wasn't until the Xie family got engaged to the Liang family that I married the late emperor."

"But meeting her is not as good as being famous. In my impression, the Princess Zhaoming is a hero among women who is brave and heroic. When we meet her, she makes people sigh."

"She rejected the marriage offer from the great ancestor and the late emperor. She traveled all over the country and brought back a son, saying he was her son."

"The late emperor remembered his old friendship and made him the county king."

"Since then, the eldest princess Zhaoming has been in-depth and simple, and her son rarely interacts with others. Although he is a county king, he has basically never been involved in government affairs. It is said that he wants to be a chivalrous knight-errant."

"Before the death of the late emperor, the Ai family found out that the eldest princess Zhaoming was just the adopted daughter of the great ancestor."
