"Fourth sister, please check it out!" Qu Qiuyan couldn't help but speak again.

He could not hide the excitement in his eyes. As long as it was proved that Qu Moying was not his father's daughter, then everything that happened next would not be a problem and his mother's affairs would also be "made clear" to the world.

Everything that happened in front of the Crown Princess's coffin could be blamed on Qu Moying. She said that not only did she direct and act it out herself, but she also wanted to harm herself. Her main purpose was to frame herself and her mother, because her mother discovered that she might not be her father's biological daughter. Qu Moying was afraid, so she designed such a trap and then pushed the blame on her mother.

With this said, neither my mother nor I will be in any danger.

"Check it out. Why? Just because of a few simple words from you two, I, a daughter of a noble minister, should take off my clothes to show you?"

Qu Moying sneered, with a hint of sharpness on her snow-white face.

"Daughter, you... why don't you acknowledge us at this time? Let us take a look, check it out. If it doesn't work... you can let... let this lady take a look. Daughter, we are your biological parents. How can you... how can you deny us for the sake of fame and fortune!"

Lee let out a heart-wrenching cry, louder than before.

"Daughter, we are your parents, you... you have already acknowledged us privately, why don't you acknowledge us now... you... you are our flesh and blood, we will definitely let you live a good life in the future, even if there is no glory and wealth, we will make you happy."

Liu Shan also howled.

"Fourth sister, let me take a look for you and then prove it to you." Qu Qiuyan looked serious, as if she was standing on Qu Moying's side.

"What are you looking at?" A cold voice suddenly came from the door. Everyone turned around and saw the lady standing at the door.

Qu Zhizhen hurriedly stood up from behind the desk and walked over to salute the old lady. The old lady glared at him coldly, then her eyes fell on the couple kneeling in front of the desk: "What mark do you think your daughter has?"

"Right leg, there is a mark on the right leg!" Seeing the awe-inspiring lady, Li and Liu Shan shuddered, but Li still said hurriedly.

"What mark?" the lady asked sternly.

Qu Moying stood up, walked to the lady's side and supported her.

"It's been too long, and I was sick so I can't remember it. The only thing I remember clearly is that there was definitely a mark on my right leg." Li explained.

"Since you can't remember clearly what it is, how do you know it is definitely the right leg?" The lady sneered, staring at Li with burning eyes.

"Just like the fact that my daughter is missing has always been in my heart, this matter is also in my heart, but apart from these, my husband and I... have forgotten many things..." Mrs. Li sobbed again, speaking in a flattering manner.

"Okay, I will check my granddaughter today, but if she is not there, you will go to the government to file a complaint!" The lady was furious. After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked inside. There was an inner room behind Qu Zhizhen's study.

Qu Moying helped her walk inside.

Qu Qiuyan stood up and said, "Grandma, I'll accompany you."

As she said this, she was about to follow. Although she knew that there was most likely a mark on Qu Moying's right leg, she still thought it would be better to see it with her own eyes.

The lady turned her eyes coldly and looked at her.

"Wait outside, don't let this pair of bad guys escape."

After saying that, he ignored Qu Qiuyan and walked inside holding Qu Moying's hand.

Looking at Qu Moying who was silent and obediently following the lady, Qu Qiuyan's expression changed slightly. She suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart, and there were faint sweat stains on her vest.

Sensing a gaze falling on him, he quickly looked up and saw Qu Zhizhen's sight. He quickly showed an aggrieved expression and called out "Father" softly. Then he returned to his seat and sat down, holding the handkerchief in his hand, not daring to express anything more.

I felt a little panicked.

What was even more panicked was the couple kneeling on the ground. Li and Liu Shan looked at each other and saw the panic in each other's eyes. They originally thought that it was not a big deal and they just had to insist that Fourth Miss Qu was their daughter. Anyway, their daughter's disappearance was true and so was Nanny Gu. Even the small note was secretly stuffed in when Nanny Gu was sealing the sachet. They didn't know what the note was actually about, but they just stuffed it in because others told them to.

The way of recognizing relatives nowadays is that you get a daughter for free and a lot of money, and then you can leave the capital. Even if something goes wrong, no one will be able to find them.

The man also said that this daughter, who he got for free, could be sold for a good price, and he could get some money for his retirement, and he could buy land and a house when he returned to his hometown. What was wrong with that

However, unexpectedly, things seemed different from what they expected. Madam Qu's last words made both of them nervous.

The study room became quiet, with only the heavy breathing of the couple as the only sound. After a while, sweat began to appear on both of their foreheads. They no longer looked calm. They looked at each other, their hearts pounding, and every moment at this moment seemed to be infinitely stretched.

Every emotion is rising infinitely.

"Second Master, the Madam invites you in." Suddenly, a maid hurried out from the inner room and said after bowing to Qu Zhizhen.

Qu Zhizhen nodded, stood up and turned to walk inside. The door of the inner room was half open. The lady was sitting in front of the couch, and standing beside the couch with her head down was Qu Moying, but her veil had fallen off. When she heard the voice, she raised her head and glanced at Qu Zhizhen. Just one glance made Qu Zhizhen stop.

The girl in front of him brightened his eyes. He had always felt that Qu Qiuyan's beauty made him proud. Even King Jing had a fond eye for Qu Qiuyan and did not even care about her misbehavior in front of the Crown Princess' coffin that day.

But one glance at the girl in front of him made him realize that Qu Qiuyan was totally incomparable. Her eyes were as clear as autumn water, but seemed to be covered with a faint mist. Her long eyelashes fluttered twice, making her face look even more beautiful. Her skin was whiter than snow, and her beauty was no match for her.

She has a pair of beautiful almond-shaped eyes, which is somewhat similar to Yue's. Yue also has a pair of almond-shaped eyes, and there seems to be a faint red in the corners of her eyes, which adds a bit of charm to her beautiful face. I don't know whether it is the beauty that makes up the charm, or the charm that blends with the beauty, which makes people even more amazing.

Although I have never seen it before, I feel a faint sense of familiarity.

At just one glance, Qu Zhizhen was certain in his heart that this was Yue and his daughter, even though Yue had almost ceased to exist in his memory.

With such a face, how could she be the daughter of that couple outside!

He originally thought that even if his fourth daughter looked okay, she would be just pretty at best. He never thought that she would be much more outstanding than Qu Qiuyan. How could she be married off so easily with such a beauty? Even if she had an eye disease, so what? Seeing how she moved freely, the disease was not too serious and it could not be seen from her appearance.

In just a moment, Qu Zhizhen readjusted his positioning of Qu Moying.

"Father!" Qu Moying stepped forward and bowed, then retreated to the side of the lady.

"I have checked it just now. There is nothing on Ying's right leg. I asked a maid to say that there was something wrong with her leg. I didn't expect that this unscrupulous couple would insist on it." The lady said coldly, "I know best whether Ying is your daughter, so I asked her to take off her veil. When she was born, there was a faint blush at the corners of her eyes, which was not too obvious, just like rouge dyed the corners of her eyes. I have never seen other girls with this."

After hearing what the lady said, Qu Zhizhen also remembered that when the child was brought to him, the lady specifically mentioned that the child looked smart and good-looking. His eyes opened shortly after he was born, and his facial features were also delicate.

But he didn't care at that time, she was just a daughter, and in his opinion, Qu Moying was very ugly at that time, not white and plump, really not that good. The only thing he could see clearly was the dark red in the corner of her eyes.

As expected, she was his daughter, and he actually felt relieved.

He looked at Qu Moying gently and said, "If it's not her, then it's alright. You can help your grandmother go back to rest later. As for this matter, your father will naturally handle it."

The tone of her voice was so gentle that Qu Moying almost felt that Qu Zhizhen had become a different person. This was the most friendly words Qu Moying had ever heard her say.

"Father, if it's not real, how dare they come here to recognize their relatives? This couple came from the farm. They couldn't find a job before, so they came to me for help. I thought they were from the farm, so I asked Yudong to send some old clothes and some loose change. As for cakes, I really didn't send any. The only place I sent new cakes was when I visited the second lady."

Qu Moying's words reminded Qu Zhizhen that it was he who kicked over the food basket that day, and he also saw the pastries that were turned out of it. A hint of anger flashed in his eyes.

No matter how you look at it, this act of going to someone's house and pretending to recognize their daughter is a provocation to him.

"As for the matter about Nanny Gu, I also heard about it. The maid at the back door did see it, but she only saw Yudong talking to the couple and didn't know anything else. Nanny Gu is Ying's wet nurse and is now in the farm. I will send someone to investigate. If Nanny Gu knows nothing, she must have been plotted against by someone. So who wanted to plot against Ying?" The lady added without hesitation.

When I came here just now, I met the servant bringing the maid from the back door. The lady asked a few questions as they walked. At this time, the maid from the back door was still waiting under the corridor.

There must be someone behind this matter. It is not hard to guess who is behind this matter. It is Yu family... It is Yu family again. Qu Zhizhen felt angry. There were many incidents before. Qu Zhizhen just wanted to let these things go and not let people talk about them anymore. But now Yu family has caused these incidents again...
