Chapter 1351 Hidden Truth 2
"What Master He said is almost entirely true, and we've also uncovered some hidden matters. This matter concerning Prince Changyang is closely related to the Prince's residence." Old Chen looked at Prince Changyang.

"Is it related to the Prince's Mansion?" Prince Changyang asked suspiciously.

Old Chen nodded and recounted everything that Granny Fang had said in detail.

Consort Chun was in danger when she was rescued by Jing'an Temple. She gave birth to a baby girl at great risk. At that time, two members of the Chen family also gave birth at Jing'an Temple.

One gave birth to a baby girl, while the other gave birth to a stillborn child.

The more Prince Changyang listened, the uglier his expression became.

The study was silent, with only the heavy breathing of the group remaining.

After hearing the whole story, Prince Changyang froze on the spot, his face turning deathly pale, his body swaying slightly, and his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

He muttered to himself, "So...the Emperor thinks my princess is the late Emperor's orphan? The child that Consort Chun gave birth to after falling off the cliff?"

Old Chen nodded heavily: "That's right. The Emperor knew that Consort Chun had given birth to a child. The reason he targeted the Xiao family was because Chen Ruyue had spread rumors that she had given birth to a stillborn child and that a child was sent away from Jing'an Temple that night, which misled them."

"Then my two children..." Prince Changyang's lips trembled, and his eyes became bloodshot: "My two children died one after another back then, wasn't that an accident? Was it the Emperor... was it the Emperor who sent someone to poison them? Just because he suspected that the Princess Consort was the late Emperor's orphan and was afraid that my children would threaten his throne, so he killed them?"

"What Granny Fang said back then is all true. Moreover, the Princess Consort also personally experienced those things back then, so she would have some memories of them. If Your Highness does not believe it, you can ask the Princess Consort for verification." Old Master Chen could not hide his solemn expression.

Prince Changyang staggered back a step and leaned against the bookshelf, causing several books to fall to the ground with a clattering sound.

His mind was filled with the innocent, smiling faces of the two children, and the tragic scene of their deaths.

My heart ached as if it were being cut by a knife, and hatred surged forth like a tidal wave.

Prince Changyang slowly raised his head, looking at Qian Fu with a complicated expression: "If... if this is really the case, then Qian Fu, your wife is a descendant of the late emperor, and the children of your Qian family are children who carry the late emperor's bloodline..."

He Yuting was also shocked by this truth and was speechless. He originally only knew that there was something wrong with the emperor's bloodline.

Unexpectedly, so many secrets were uncovered, and it turned out that the descendants of the Qian family were actually the legitimate bloodline of the late emperor.

The study fell silent once again.

Prince Changyang was stunned by the truth and leaned on the table, saying, "I need to calm down, I need to think this through."

Qianfu and Zhanyi exchanged a glance.

Zhan Yi suddenly clutched his chest, his brow furrowed, and cried out in pain, "Ouch... my chest... it hurts so much..."

"Brother Zhan!" Qian Fu quickly stepped forward to support him.

The study room suddenly became a mess.

Prince Changyang also snapped out of his grief and hatred and hurriedly said, "Quickly, quickly summon a doctor!"

Ye Qianning was chatting with Nan Xiang outside the study when he suddenly heard a noise coming from inside. He immediately got up and went to the study.

I saw Zhan Yi clutching his chest, his face pale.

He immediately ordered, "First, carry Grandpa to the guest room to rest, then go and fetch a doctor."

Soon, several guards carried in a stretcher, carefully lifted Zhan Yi up, and took him to a guest room.

Old Chen and Qianfu also stood up, their expressions grave, and said, "Your Highness, let's go check on his condition first." Prince Changyang nodded.

Old Chen and Qianfu quickly followed.

He Yuting glanced at Prince Changyang, hesitated for a moment, and returned to the dark room.

Only Prince Changyang remained in the study. His face was terribly gloomy, and his eyes were filled with boundless hatred.

Inside a guest room at the Prince of Changyang's residence, the doctor examined Zhan Yi and said that he had drunk too much alcohol and was otherwise fine. He prescribed some medicine and left. Seeing that Zhan Yi was alright, Elder Chen and Qian Fu were relieved, and the group left the Prince of Changyang's residence that evening.

In the inner courtyard of the Changyang Prince's Mansion, the Changyang Prince sat alone in his room, his expression still gloomy.

He didn't get up until it got dark and walked towards Princess Changyang's room.

Princess Changyang was embroidering under the lamp when she saw Prince Changyang enter. She put down her needlework, stood up, and went to greet him: "Your Highness, you're back? How is Elder Zhan?"

"It's all over now." Prince Changyang's voice was a little hoarse.

He took the princess's hand, sat on the edge of the bed, and looked at her with a complicated expression.

Princess Changyang noticed his unusual behavior and asked in confusion, "Your Highness, what's wrong? You look so pale, has something happened?"

Prince Changyang took a deep breath and slowly said, "Princess, I have a question for you. You must tell me the truth: were you raised outside for several years when you were a child?"

When his mother was mentioned, Princess Changyang was puzzled as to why he asked, but she answered truthfully: "Yes, when my mother married into the Xiao family, there was fierce infighting within the family. In order to take control of the Xiao family and stabilize the situation, she placed me in an outside residence for several years until she completely controlled the Xiao family before bringing me back to the mansion. I still vaguely remember that there was a large crabapple tree in the courtyard of that residence, and the crabapple blossoms were especially beautiful every spring."

Hearing this, what else did Prince Changyang not understand?

He was certain that what Old Chen had said was true. Looking at the worry on the princess's face, he felt a pang of pain in his heart. He couldn't bear to tell her the truth, fearing that she wouldn't be able to bear this sudden blow.

Princess Changyang keenly noticed that his expression had become even more serious, and her doubts deepened: "Your Highness, what's wrong with you? Is there something you're hiding about my mother?"

Prince Changyang quickly composed himself and shook his head: "No, today Qianfu mentioned the Chen family and the Xiao family, and said that my mother-in-law is a formidable person."

Princess Changyang looked proud upon hearing this: "Of course, my mother has managed the Xiao family for many years and is indeed very capable."

It is both impressive and difficult for a woman to control an entire family.

Prince Changyang was absent-minded. After calming himself down, he stood up and said, "I just suddenly remembered that I have some official business to attend to. I'll go to the study first."

"Take care of yourself, don't overexert yourself." Princess Changyang knew that the capital was in complete chaos.

She understood that the prince was busy and in a bad mood.

Prince Changyang nodded and quickly left the room, heading towards the study.

Upon entering the study, Prince Changyang closed the door behind him, leaned against it, and remained motionless for a long time.

After a long while, he walked to the desk and sat down, clenching his fists tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force.

A bastard... actually confused the royal bloodline and sat on the throne.

They even caused the deaths of his two underage children... He will definitely take revenge himself.
