Reborn to be without his father but with his son, the prince shouted, "I'm not dead!"

Chapter 199 Where is my son?

Daduan was glad that he used to go in and out of the palace frequently with the Duke, so he escaped from the palace without much effort.

He clenched his fists unwillingly as he looked at the East Palace from afar. Ever since he realized that something was wrong with the Duke's death, he hid himself to investigate. Later, when Master Ji was imprisoned, he sneaked into the cell to see Master Ji.

Master Ji told him that the evidence of the prince's crime was secretly hidden in the rockery of the Duke's Mansion.

Daduan went to the Duke's Mansion and found that there were many spies hiding around the Mansion, making it extremely difficult for him to sneak into the Mansion. Until the Duke's wife passed away, he took the opportunity to sneak into the Mansion and rescued Yuanniang who was about to commit suicide.

Yuan Niang told him the truth, and he regretted that the Duke and the Duchess did not recognize Ji Yunchu's true face. Ji Yunchu broke with the Crown Prince and stepped on the death of the Duke's Duchess to enter the Second Prince's Mansion.

Daduan successfully obtained the evidence of the correspondence between Ji Erye and the prince. It turned out that the reason why Ji Erye went astray was because the prince embezzled the court's money to support the army, and later the deficit in the account book became larger and larger.

The prince needed a large amount of money to make up for the deficit, so he handed the matter over to the Duke. The Duke had no choice but to write a letter to ask Master Ji. Master Ji wanted to stabilize the relationship between the Duke's Mansion and the prince, so he had to help, which led to the tragedy.

Daduan felt that it would be difficult to take revenge on his own, so he tried every means to sneak into the East Palace and wait for an opportunity to get close to Ji Qinqin.

Originally he had a good discussion with Ji Qinqin. He would help Ji Qinqin consolidate her position in the Eastern Palace and then take revenge after Ji Qinqin secured her position. However, he did not expect that Ji Qinqin actually wanted to go back on her word.

Daduan was filled with grief. In such a huge Duke's Mansion, some died and some left, and no one was able to take revenge.

At this time in the East Palace, Shen Yuxian heard that there was an assassin, and subconsciously thought that the real prince had sent someone to assassinate him, so he immediately drew his sword and rushed into Ji Qinqin's room.

When Ji Qinqin saw Shen Yuxian holding a sword with a gloomy face, she trembled in the quilt.

"Your Highness, the assassin has escaped."

"Where did he go?"

Ji Qinqin lowered her head guiltily, "I don't know."

After saying this, Shen Yuxian left without any reluctance. He returned to the house and ordered someone to summon Wei Luoyan urgently.

Inadvertently, he glanced at the letter sent by Kong Zichen more than ten days ago. At that time, Shen Yuxian was annoyed with the Kong family and threw the letter casually on the corner of the table.

Shen Yuxian has never been so eager for the Kong family to care about him as he is now. At least it can prove that the Kong family believes that he is the queen's son.

He opened the letter eagerly, and was stunned when he saw that it said "Wei Luoyan has the intention of rebellion."

Shen Yuxian's first reaction was to deny it. Wei Luoyan had always been loyal to him, so how could he betray him?
He clenched his teeth and crumpled the letter into a ball.

At this time, Wei Luoyan was lying on the bed sleeping. Shuda hurriedly called him to wake up. Wei Luoyan turned his head to look at Shuda unhappily.

"what happened?"

"The prince urgently summons you to the palace."

Wei Luoyan looked out the window and saw that it was pitch black. It was still dark before dawn, but the prince summoned him into the palace. Thinking that something important must have happened, he got up reluctantly and got dressed.

Now he not only has to deal with the crown prince, but also the imperial concubine and others.

He had previously asked Shu Da to check whether Ji Yunchu had tampered with his sister's sachet, and unexpectedly discovered that Ji Yunchu had a close relationship with the imperial concubine.

So they checked Shufei's sachet again, and found out that not only had the Queen tampered with Shufei's sachet, but the Imperial Concubine had also intervened. It was just that the Queen had only put contraceptives in it, while the Imperial Concubine was more cruel and wanted to make Shufei infertile.

He now suspected that the reason why the child of Concubine Shu in his previous life was not saved was most likely because of Concubine Gui.

Wei Luoyan planned to first join forces with the Crown Prince to deal with the Second Prince, making the Crown Prince's men listen to him, and then find an opportunity to attack the Crown Prince.

As soon as he walked into the East Palace, he felt that the atmosphere was wrong, and he was secretly surprised to see Shen Yuxian's slightly livid face.

Shen Yuxian took the lead and said, "Wei Luoyan, I remember that you swore to follow me until death. I hope you will not forget your original intention. I have helped you a lot. Please don't let me down." Seeing that Shen Yuxian "reminded" him without any explanation, Wei Luoyan hurriedly bowed his head and knelt down to show his loyalty and obedience.

"I, Wei Luoyan, will never forget what I said. Your Highness summoned me to the palace at this time. Is there something important?"

Chen Yuxian put on a cold smile, "Luo Yan, I've been in some trouble recently, it's time for you to show your loyalty to me."

Wei Luoyan felt vaguely uneasy after listening to this, and then he was shocked when he heard Shen Yuxian's plan. He was totally unprepared, and under Shen Yuxian's gaze, he could only bite the bullet and accept Shen Yuxian's arrangement.

After the morning court session the next day, Shen Yuxian's gloomy face flashed through the emperor's mind, and he decided to confess the truth to the queen.

The Emperor had not been to the Queen's palace for a long time, and the servants in the palace were surprised and happy.

Aunt Mei happily came to the Queen and said, "Your Majesty, the Emperor is here."

Kong Wanhan stopped teasing the cricket in surprise.

"It's only daytime, and he's here?" Ever since she and the emperor had a conflict, the emperor only came to take a look at her at night at the designated time every month and then left.

"Your Majesty, let me help you go to the dressing table and dress up."

Kong Wanhan chuckled and said, "What's there to dress up for? I'm not a new woman in the palace, and the emperor is tired of looking at me."

The emperor was just crossing the threshold when he heard these words.

It's not that he hadn't thought about reconciling with the Queen. After all, the Queen was the one he had a crush on since he was young. But every time he came, the Queen's attitude towards him was lukewarm. As the emperor, it was naturally impossible for him to lower himself to coax the Queen.

"Ahem!" The emperor signaled to Nanny Mei to take the palace maid out.

Nanny Mei understood, smiled, lowered her head, waved to the palace maids and left.

Kong Wanhan smiled politely and saluted, "How did the emperor find time to come here today?"

"I can't come to see you if I'm fine?" Shen Weixiao frowned unhappily, but thinking of the purpose of his trip, he relaxed his brows and said, "I have something important to tell you."

"Your Majesty, please speak." Kong Wanhan replied perfunctorily.

"Ah Han, your biological son has been replaced by someone else. Shen Yuxian is not your own flesh and blood."

Kong Wanhan looked at the emperor in astonishment.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Yuxian is the child that came out of my belly. What makes you say he is not? Could it be that you want to change the crown prince and deliberately make up this excuse?"

As soon as the words fell, Shen Weixiao laughed angrily, "No matter how foolish I am, I will not joke about my offspring. Shen Yuxian was born to a common village woman."

"How do you know? I'm in the harem, who can replace my son?" Kong Wanhan's eyes were full of distrust, and she obviously didn't believe what the emperor said.

Shen Weixiao suddenly didn't dare to look Kong Wanhan in the eye. He wanted to protect the imperial concubine, so naturally he couldn't tell Kong Wanhan everything.

"A thief broke into the palace and took the child away by mistake."

Seeing Shen Weixiao like this, Kong Wanhan vaguely guessed that Shen Weixiao was protecting the person behind him. After thinking about it, she realized that the woman with the deepest grudge against her and the most courageous in the harem was only the imperial concubine.

"Huh, since you said Yuxian is not my son, then where is my son?"

"In Prince Zhong's Mansion, he is Shen Jing."
