Tibetan beads

Chapter 360 Verification
Yan Cheng still remembered that when he came back that day, he was completely out of his mind, and his mother asked him if he had caught the cold, and immediately ordered a doctor to come and take care of him.

Facing her worried face, he was speechless and could only acquiesce.

So the soldiers in the mansion were in a panic, busy for him.

He took the opportunity to ask his mother why he was so weak.The mother said guiltily that she was young and ignorant at that time, and did not raise the fetus well.

Yan Cheng thought to himself, how could it be possible that Zhaoguo Duke's family, which has been heirloom for a hundred years, paid so much attention to offspring?

Many things, as long as you pay attention, there will be traces.

After his "illness" recovered, Yan Cheng went to Daming Temple to offer incense again, and his people found an old nanny who had worked in the mansion in the early years.

The old nanny told him that his father and mother got married in September 21 years ago, and she served in the mansion for another half a year before leaving the mansion.Before she left the mansion, the wife was not pregnant.

Yan Cheng was stunned.

He is 20 years old this year, and his birthday is in April, which happens to be the time when the old mother leaves the house.

The mother could not have given birth to him!

Yan Cheng's heart was boiling with oil.He dubiously believed what Concubine Liu Xian said, but now he found out by himself.

However, the old mother said again: "When Madam first got married, she was quite estranged and polite with the Duke of the country. It was not until half a year later, when the old slave left the mansion, that the two gradually got better. Sure enough, the true feelings are born out of love. Now that the husband and wife are in love, the blessings will be endless.”

Yan Cheng closed his eyes and said nothing for a long time.

"My lord?" His confidant was very worried.

Yan Cheng waved his hand and said, "Take 100 taels and send Mama back to her hometown! Remember, nothing happened today."

"Yes."

According to Yanling's birthday calculation this year, his parents will have him a year and a half after their marriage. If what the old mother said is true, the mother would not have enough time to have another child before him.

With this secret in mind, he pretended nothing happened and returned home.

While sitting and drinking tea, he took advantage of the opportunity to ask his mother how to get along as a newlywed.My mother smiled and said: "This person is nothing more than a heart-to-heart exchange. If you treat her well, she will treat you well. You rarely get along before marriage. If you say that your relationship is insufficient, isn't it like this for all couples in the world?" ? Gradually from unfamiliar to familiar."

"Is it the same with you and your father?"

"Well, we got used to it after half a year of marriage. Speaking of which, we also knew each other since we were young, but we didn't expect to be husband and wife at that time. It's really unpredictable!"

That's right, when my mother was not out of the cabinet, she was close friends with Miss Liu, so she naturally knew her father.

"When we first got married, your father didn't dare to come back, and he had to hide in the study room in the compartment to prevent others from finding out. There was only a thin quilt in the study room. One day it suddenly turned cold, and your father was so cold Sneezing, for fear that your grandmother would find out, it was so hard to cover up."

Saying these words, my mother smiled sweetly, but Yan Cheng's heart sank.

Covered with a thin quilt will catch cold, it should be when the autumn wind blows.

A few days later, Yan Cheng took the opportunity of checking the accounts and looked through the old books. Sure enough, he found out the human relationship in September of that year.

The old mammy was right, my father and mother got married in September of that year.

Also, from April to June 20 years ago, a large number of people were changed in the payroll roll of the Duke's Mansion, and many old servants must have been dismissed, and the old nun was among them.

He searched year after year, and found the list of full moon ceremony in March 18 years ago, which coincided with Yanling's birthday.In the past few years, there was nothing related to him.The earliest record related to him is the enlightenment wine at the age of six...

Yan Cheng sat down on the chair and covered his face with his hands.

What Concubine Liu Xian said is true, he is not the child of his mother...

But if he appeared inexplicably, how could this matter be hidden from people?
There are not many old servants in the mansion, only how many are around his parents, he can't ask.So he brought his idea to the army, and spent some time pretending to invite a general from his hometown to drink by chance.

The old general told him when he was half-drunk that Zhaoguo's mansion was full of crises back then. There was the Zhenbei Dufu Mansion in the north, the Zhangzhou Zhao family in the south, and the horse thieves looting in the west. The chaos in the green forest has not completely subsided. In order to earn military expenses, the generals can only open up business channels in person, and often go out for more than half a year.The first time he knew that the Duke had been born, the little prince had already turned one year old.

While Yan Cheng's heart ached, he calculated calmly.

According to Concubine Liu Xian, his real birthday is the first lunar month.The Duke's Mansion should have known of his existence in April 20 years ago, that is, when he was three months old. In order to cover up this matter, they began to replace the old servants in the mansion.The family generals were busy with errands, and the old servants were almost replaced, so he appeared in the Duke's mansion as a young son.

Afterwards, the Duke's Mansion changed his birthday to April, and even if those families knew about it, they would think that his mother was born prematurely.And he was born prematurely and frail, and it wouldn't be revealed.

After checking everything back and forth, Yan Cheng had no choice but to believe that all of this was true.

"A Cheng, your aunt didn't lie to you, did you? The Dong family is not your mother. Your biological mother's surname is Liu, and she is now buried in the imperial tomb!"

In the Zen courtyard of Daming Temple, Concubine Liu Xian had tears in her eyes, sad and relieved: "I wanted to tell you when I was in the capital, but at that time... I couldn't tell you. Now I finally tell you the truth and call you Know what has been taken from you!"

"If it wasn't for Dong's calculations, the eunuchs selected would not have included my sister in the roster, and my sister would have married into Duke Zhao's mansion smoothly, and the family was happy. But now, my sister is forced to enter the palace, and she will not be able to see you until she dies." On the one hand, you died young and depressed. Your mother and child are separated, and you have never even seen your mother, and you don’t know her existence. And your enemy sits in the high hall, watching you respectful to her, kowtow to recognize your mother..."

"Shut up!" Yan Cheng turned his head suddenly, stared at Concubine Liu Xian, and said, "Even if my biological mother is someone else, it doesn't mean what you said is true. You are not me. How caring I am. I was weak when I was young, and if it wasn’t for my mother’s tireless care, I wouldn’t be where I am today. When I’m sick, crying, naughty...my mother is always by my side, I trust my eyes more than your words!"

"A Cheng!" Concubine Liu Xian shed tears, sad and indignant, her whole body was on the verge of falling.

"Auntie!" Liu Xi'er hastily supported her.

Concubine Liu Xian breathed a sigh of relief, and showed a bleak smile: "Okay, you don't have to trust Auntie, but A Cheng, you have to be more careful, and don't let people plot. The Dong family is the best at buying people's hearts. You will always be gentle and amiable in front of people, otherwise your sister will not be deceived by her. Your father has a long love, even if he married her, he still misses your mother in his heart. In order to win your father's heart, she pretended to treat you It looks like it's heart and soul. Just wait and see, she will secretly pave the way for her own son, and when the time comes, she will pull you down!"

　In ancient times, it should be counted as a false age, but in the text, for the sake of simplicity, it is counted as a full year.
