Chapter 97 I Really Wish He Was My Own Child
In this letter from the Queen, in addition to asking about Lin Rong's health, she also asked whether she would attend the Queen's birthday party.

After Xiao Chang finished reading it, he handed it to Lin Rong.

Lin Rong took the letter and looked at the familiar words on it, tears filled her eyes.

The Queen is Lin Rong's cousin. Ever since Lin Rong's child was lost, the Queen has been trying her best to help find him.

But the Queen did not find out about it until the next day. Even if she ordered the city to be sealed off, if the person who stole the child wanted to leave the city, she would not be able to stop him.

In the end, the lost little prince was still not found.

The Queen also wanted to spend more time with Lin Rong, but as she was the mother of a country, she could not live in the palace permanently, and Lin Rong would not go to the palace either, so the Queen would visit her cousin every once in a while.

At first, Lin Rong met him, but later, when he became seriously ill, they stopped meeting.

The queen also had to take care of her own children, so the two sisters hadn't seen each other for some time.

The Queen would also send a letter to the palace in advance of her birthday banquet every year, hoping that Lin Rong could come.

Lin Rong refused every time. In the end, every year when Xiao Chang received the letter, he would habitually reply about Lin Rong's health condition and add that she could not attend the birthday party.

"This time, I will go." After reading it, Lin Rong decided to go herself.

Now that my child is back and my illness is almost healed, I want to go see my sister whom I haven’t seen for many years.

"Really?" Xiao Chang's first reaction after hearing this was excitement and happiness. After all, the princess agreed to go out and enter the palace, which really meant that his Rong'er was really getting better!
But on the other hand, Xiao Chang began to worry again.

Now Rong'er thinks that Liu Liantang is their Huai'er. On the one hand, this is indeed a good thing, as it can help Rong'er get better.

However, these are only limited to the Dingzhou Palace.

But if she left the palace and entered the palace, Rong'er would definitely tell the queen that this was deceiving the queen! What's more serious is that if the emperor also knew about it, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor.

Although the current emperor is his own brother, this matter cannot be made public.

"Yes, I want to go to the palace to see my sister."

Hearing this, Xiao Chang's heart softened again. After all, Rong'er really wanted to see the queen, and he couldn't stop her.

It seems that I can only continue to deceive.

At this time, Xiao Chang ordered his servants to retreat and walked to Lin Rong's side.

"Madam, I hope you don't spread the news of Huai'er's return. After all, Huai'er is very busy now. If you tell her about this, Huai'er will have to be summoned to the palace. If there is a delay, what if Huai'er is blamed?"

"So, wait until Huai'er has dealt with these things, and then we'll tell everyone."

After listening to Xiao Chang's words, Lin Rong nodded: "Okay, husband."

Just like that, Xiao Chang picked up his pen and wrote down the reply letter dictated by Lin Rong.

"Your Majesty, I suddenly remembered that I haven't been out for a walk for quite a while. In two days, I want to go out with Huai'er to see if there is anything I can give to my sister."

"My Lord, don't forget to tell Huai'er."

"Don't worry, ma'am."

The sun is shining brightly today, and the breeze makes people feel extremely comfortable.

Today was the day when Gu Jiangmeng and her family went out shopping. It was a day off, so Gu Xun and Gu Hengyu were both there. Gu Yize did not go to the academy today, of course, to accompany Gu Jiangmeng shopping.

The whole family gets together and goes shopping.

[It’s really fun. Our whole family is out shopping. So happy! ]

Gu Jiangmeng waved his hands happily and looked at the surroundings.

After hearing Gu Jiangmeng's thoughts, Gu Yize and Gu Hengyu looked at each other, and then they looked at Gu Changce.

yesterday.

Gu Hengyu came back first, and as soon as he entered the General's Mansion, he went straight to Tingyu Pavilion to look for his fifth sister. Gu Jiangmeng also listened to Gu Hengyu talking about his life in the palace these days.

Gu Hengyu couldn't help laughing when he heard Gu Jiangmeng's thoughts.

Inadvertently, Gu Hengyu looked up and saw his mother Ye Shu, who was also smiling.

Gu Hengyu was full of confusion: What I just said wasn’t funny, why did my mother laugh?

Gu Hengyu didn't think too much and continued to play with Gu Jiangmeng.

When Gu Changce came back, he saw two kids, one big and one small, a boy and a girl, playing happily.

(ps: In Gu Changce's eyes, Gu Hengyu is just a baby. After all, Gu Hengyu is less than 150cm tall, while Gu Changce is already 178cm tall. Of course, both of them are still growing)

When Gu Jiangmeng felt sleepy during the game, Gu Changce pulled Gu Hengyu away.

"Now, there are more than three of us who can hear my sister's voice—" Before she could finish her words, Gu Hengyu interrupted her.

"Is this true? Second brother, tell me who it is. I want to know. I will never let them hurt Jiang Meng!"

After all, Gu Hengyu knew that if others could also hear Jiang Meng's thoughts, then Jiang Meng would be in danger.

"They are our parents."

"Yes, I will beat them right away." After Gu Changce finished speaking, Gu Hengyu said this without thinking.

By the time I reacted, I had finished speaking.

Gu Hengyu was really glad that his parents were not by his side, after all, he was the one who was beaten.

"Ah~ It's our parents!"

Gu Hengyu was a smart kid. He immediately remembered that Jiang Meng said that he had messed up things because of drinking, and his parents had specifically told him about it.

It turns out that at that time, my parents could hear my sister's voice.

After Gu Yize came back, he was attacked from both sides by his two younger brothers, and he realized that his parents could hear his thoughts.

Gu Yize suddenly realized: No wonder, no wonder.

The previous confusion can now be explained clearly.

"I don't know what the Queen likes." Ye Shu began to feel troubled.

[Let me think, whose things are the most favored by the Queen on her birthday?]

[Yes, it is a painting of a mother and her child, a happy scene. This painting was painted by a famous master. Who sent this painting?]

[Yes, it was given by the eldest prince. The eldest prince loves these antiques very much. When many things appear, the eldest prince will know immediately.]

[I don’t know if the painting has been bought by the eldest prince. If he has, there is nothing we can do. After all, we can’t steal his paintings! ]

[Yes, this painting was originally sold by a peddler selling calligraphy and paintings. Unfortunately, he didn’t know whether the calligraphy and paintings were authentic, so he almost destroyed it as a waste painting.]

[Someone who knew what was good went up to look at the painting, bought it at a very low price, and eventually sold it to a pawnshop, making a lot of money.]

[There was a spy of the eldest prince in the pawnshop. When he saw this good thing, he immediately informed the eldest prince.]

[How much is it today? I remember the eldest prince bought it on the second day of the Chinese New Year. ]

At this time, the clever Gu Hengyu began to play to his strengths.

"Mother, today is the first day of the lunar year. Is the eighth day the Queen's birthday?"

"Yes." Ye Shu began to cooperate.

【Today is only the first day of the new year! 】
