"Huh?" To someone she knows
Yu Qingluo had a look of confusion on her face, but Jin Liuli and the others temporarily put their gazes behind her, becoming a little more curious about the person he was talking about.
Ye Xiu took the handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped the rainwater off her, then protected her and walked carefully towards the study.
Peng Ying had been waiting outside the door for a long time. When he saw the two people coming together, he hurriedly knocked on the door twice. Then he responded to Ye Xiudu, "Your Majesty, Miss Jade."
"Well, how long have you been waiting?"
"Almost half an hour." Peng Ying replied, leading the two of them a few steps before slowly opening the door.
As soon as Yu Qingluo stepped into the door, she saw a slightly thin figure standing in front of her with his back to her. He was looking out the window with his hands behind his back, as if he was thinking about something.
This man's back... seems a little familiar.
It wasn't until the door of the study room was closed that the man turned around, smiled lowly at Ye Xiudu, and saluted, "I have met the prince."
Yu Qingluo's pupils tightened, Li Ze
She looked at Ye Xiudu and then at Li Ze, going back and forth several times. This night Xiu Du also said that Li Ze was not his person? The two of them were obviously familiar with each other.
Ye Xiudu seemed to see the look in her eyes and chuckled, but he answered her question first, "Master Li is indeed not my person. If you have to say who he is, maybe you can say It’s your person.”
Yu Qingluo's eyes suddenly widened, what, what do you mean? She didn't know Li Ze at all before.
Ye Xiudu patted her gently, then faced Li Ze and whispered, "There are no outsiders here, so Mr. Li doesn't need to be polite. If we go by seniority, I have to call you uncle."
"My lord, please don't say that. I'm ashamed of myself." Li Ze shook his head. He was used to smiling, but now he looked even more like an old fox.
He exchanged polite words with Ye Xiu, and when he looked away again, the look in his eyes suddenly became hot.
But this burning heat fell on Yu Qingluo.
It was this look that made Yu Qingluo feel that Li Ze looked at her strangely last time, just like now...
"Qingluo, you've grown so big."
"..." Yu Qingluo was stunned, this, this, what does this mean
"It seems that as the prince said, Qingluo has no memory of the past." Li Ze took a few steps forward and looked at Yu Qingluo carefully several times, his eyes filled with doting, "You and Your mother looks very much like you. If your mother was as smart as you, she wouldn't have left you two siblings so early."
"..." Yu Qingluo looked confused. Does he know his mother
Li Ze looked at her with a deeper look, especially at her confused look. He couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Qingluo, if you can, how about you call me uncle?"
uncle? ? ? ?
Yu Qingluo reacted quickly, no wonder Ye Xiu just said that in terms of seniority, he wanted to call Li Ze his uncle. No wonder Ye Xiu just said that Li Ze was hers. It turned out that they had such a relationship.
But, but how is this possible
If Li Ze is really her uncle, it is impossible for Chen Jixin and her daughter not to know each other.
Probably seeing her doubts, Ye Xiudu patiently explained, "Mr. Li was framed when he was a child. He left your grandfather's house and was adopted by others. At that time, your grandfather's house, well, the house was quite... It’s very complicated. Mr. Li is the son of a concubine, so news soon spread that he was seriously ill and died, and your grandfather’s family gradually stopped looking for him. "
Which house is quite complicated? To put it bluntly, Mr. Li was a victim of the struggle between her grandmother and other wives and concubines.
"Among all the brothers and sisters, only your mother has always wanted to find my brother who was born as a concubine." Li Ze took over the conversation, and when he talked about the past, there was no smile on his face anymore.
"Your mother spent almost all her savings and kept asking people to inquire in secret. It wasn't until the year before she got married that she finally met me. She tried her best to make me recognize my ancestors, but I was I refused. Although my adoptive parents are not rich and powerful people, they are simple and kind-hearted, and they treat me well. I will honor them for the rest of my life, and I really don’t want to get involved in the fights between aristocratic families anymore."
"Your mother also respected my opinion, but she still secretly sent some silver to my adoptive parents from time to time. It wasn't until she got married and until I passed the exam that the tight days were over. Later, your grandfather's family declined. , your mother died in childbirth at the Yu family, and no one is holding anyone accountable for it. But I never believed it. She has always been in good health, and it was her second child, so how could she suffer from severe bleeding and difficult childbirth? "
"Over the years, I have been looking for evidence, and the object of suspicion has shifted from your father to Chen Jixin. Fortunately, I finally made a breakthrough in the past few years and found out the whereabouts of Po Wen who delivered your mother's baby. . Unfortunately, she got sick and passed away. However, I found the letter written by brother Chen Jixin to her from his house, and only then did I determine the truth about your mother's death."
Yu Qingluo suddenly understood, "So that letter was not found from Chen Jixin's box at all, but was put in by you?" That's why Chen Jixin's expression was so shocked at that time.
"Yes." Li Ze laughed, "Although I found the letter, I never had the chance to prove her guilt. In addition, she and the Right Prime Minister got close in the past two years, well, I didn't do anything. Chance."
This time, if he hadn't heard about Yu Qingluo, if he hadn't confirmed Yu Qingluo's identity, he wouldn't have recommended himself and took the initiative to find Prince Xiu and ask him to recommend him to be the Jing Zhaoyin.
Years of grudges were finally avenged, although most of the credit was taken away.
But if my sister knew that Qingluo was so capable, she could rest in peace.
Seeing the appearance of his even more beautiful niece, Li Ze was really overjoyed.
Ye Xiu raised his eyebrows at Yu Qingluo alone, "I told you, he is yours, right?"
Yu Qingluo glanced at him fiercely, but she had the nerve to say that she didn't tell her earlier. For the past two days, she had always felt that Li Ze's eyes were strange and she felt uneasy.
Li Ze laughed, shook his head after a while, and suddenly said seriously, "But this person can only do so much for today. Qingluo, your mother's revenge has been avenged, and I can take the position of Jing Zhaoyin." I won’t sit down anymore.”
Yu Qingluo was stunned for a moment, didn't you want to do it
"Why?" Jing Zhaoyin's position can be regarded as a good one. Although his taste is not high, his power is sufficient. For officials in the DPRK and China, many people still give him three points of thin noodles.
