Chapter 102 He is truly his own child!

Even with so much evidence before him, Liu Liantang still couldn't believe it.

"Is it Aunt Zhang?" Xiao Chang asked after hearing this. After all, Xiao Chang asked Wu Jiang to investigate, and it seemed that she was the only one who was close to Liu Liantang.

"Your Highness, how do you know her?" Liu Liantang was extremely surprised when he heard this.

However, Liu Liantang quickly reacted and told the prince that he had investigated him.

Xiao Chang told the truth: "When Wu Jiang went to pick you up, he saw how you were treated in Liu's house, and that's when—"

Before he finished speaking, Liu Liantang knew that this was the reason.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness." Liu Liantang knew that the prince was a kind-hearted person.

"In fact, it was Nanny Zhang who told me before she died that I was not a child of the Liu family, but was stolen."

Hearing this, Xiao Chang was shocked.

What Liu Liantang meant was that he was not the son of the Liu family at all, but was stolen!

Xiao Chang thought of ten thousand possibilities, but he didn't dare to think that Liu Liantang was not the son of the Liu family.

If Liu Liantang was telling the truth, then he really could be his own child!

"Could you tell me this in detail?" Xiao Chang's eyes suddenly softened, filled with excitement and desire.

In this way, Liu Liantang relayed to Xiao Chang everything that Nanny Zhang had said to him.

After Xiao Chang heard this, he excitedly held Liu Liantang's hands and said, "I will investigate this matter thoroughly."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Someone, send Young Master Liu back."

"Yes."

Xiao Chang left Wu Jiang in the study and arranged for Wu Jiang to complete the task alone. "Go and tie up all the maids of Aunt Zhao of the Liu Mansion and see which one was involved in the substitution."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Xiao Chang sighed, hoping to find out clearly. If Liu Liantang was really his child, then... that would be great!

General's Mansion.

"This time the queen is pregnant, and it coincides with the queen's birthday banquet, so many ministers and their wives were invited."

"Does that mean Fourth Aunt will go too?" Gu Yize mentioned.

I guess only Gu Changce would be unhappy to hear this.

"Ah?" Gu Changce recalled the last time Ye Yuan pulled his ears. Now he felt a little painful and couldn't help but cover his ears.

"What? You don't want Fourth Aunt to go?" Gu Hengyu said from the side.

"How can it be?"

[Hahahaha~ I didn’t expect my second brother to be so afraid of Aunt Yuan, so funny~]

Hearing this, several people burst into laughter.

[If Aunt Yuan goes, Prime Minister Shen’s son Shen Hongxiao will also go, so they are a couple. If Big Brother goes, Xiao Lingyu will also go, so they are also a couple. Let me think about it, what else...]

Gu Yize was caught off guard and did not expect to be mentioned.

The other four people all looked at Gu Yize. Gu Yize could only pretend not to care and cleared his throat to hide his embarrassment.

At this time, Qiu Sang and the servants came forward and arranged many things.

"General, Madam, gentlemen and ladies, these are the more valuable things in our general's mansion."

"Yeah." Ye Shu nodded.

"Let's discuss what gift to give to the Queen."

"Here are night-shining pearls, warm jade bracelets, and blue-white jade ruyi..."

"By the way, Qiu Sang, take out the things you bought at the market that day and see if there is anything you can give to the Queen."

"Yes." Qiu Sang entered the house and took out the things. There were quite a few things wrapped inside, and the one that looked good was the longevity lock.

"Although it is the Queen's birthday party, the Queen is pregnant after all, so the longevity lock can be kept."

The others all nodded.

Gu Jiangmeng saw the painting at this time and began to point at it.

At this time, Gu Jiangmeng was in Gu Yize's arms. Gu Yize was silent for a while, and then began to speak: "Jiang Meng, what did you see?"

[Big brother, hurry up, take the painting I pointed out and give it to the Queen. She will definitely like it very much! And it is also the work of a famous artist, not a painting made by an ordinary person.]

Gu Yize held Gu Jiangmeng in his arms and walked to the front of the painting. "Why is Jiangmeng pointing at this painting?"

"Could it be that my little sister likes the person in the painting?"

"Does my little sister want to take a closer look at this painting?"

[Ahhh, no, no. I wish I could speak.]

Gu Jiangmeng got anxious and made sounds of “ah…ah…ah…”

Hearing this, several people were stunned.

"Was that 'ah' just now made by my little sister?" Gu Hengyu pointed at Gu Jiangmeng and said.

[What, I was able to make a sound just now? ]

Gu Jiangmeng then continued to open his mouth, and sure enough, a sound came out.

"Ah...ah..."

Ye Shu walked out excitedly, "Jiang Meng, continue to follow mother, ah...ah..."

Gu Jiangmeng also followed, "Ah...ah..."

Ye Shu cried with joy, "Jiang Meng can make sounds now!"

Then, there were a lot of happy voices and laughter coming from the General's Mansion.

On the other side, in a corner of the palace.

"Tell me quickly, were you the one who stole the child and brought him back to the Liu Mansion?"

Wu Jiang asked sternly, wearing a mask.

After two days of investigation, Wu Jiang has confirmed that there are two maids who are the trusted servants of Aunt Zhao of the Liu Mansion.

However, in order to avoid collusion between the two, Wu Jiang interrogated them separately.

The two maids naturally looked innocent at first and said that Liu Liantang was Aunt Zhao's son, so how could he have stolen a child?

But Wu Jiang was extremely well prepared. He found out that something strange happened more than ten years ago.

When Aunt Zhao's child got seriously ill, the doctors said it was difficult to cure, and it was probably a disease that the child had brought from the womb. It can be said that the doctors said there was no way to save the child, and whether he would recover or not depended entirely on the child's own luck.

The strange thing is that Aunt Zhao's child suddenly recovered overnight. Perhaps it was the protection of the gods that helped him survive the disease.

Wu Jiang suspected that Aunt Zhao's child really died of illness, and Aunt Zhao was worried that her position would be in jeopardy after the child died, so she stole a child to replace him.

This also explains why Aunt Zhao was not nice to Liu Liantang. After all, even a tiger won't eat its own cubs.

Wu Jiang told the two maids what he had guessed, and he saw surprise on their faces.

As for the rest, it was torture until the man confessed.

A maid named Xiu'er could not bear the torture and finally confessed that she had stolen the child.

When Wu Jiang heard this, he looked at the maid in front of him viciously. If she wasn't useful, he would have tortured her to death right now.

If it weren't for her, the princess wouldn't have fallen ill, and the prince wouldn't have become so decadent!
After Xiuer confessed, her statement was recorded and she signed her name.

Wu Jiang couldn't wait to find Prince Dingzhou and tell him the truth of the matter. That Master Liu was the young prince!
