Chapter 126

When asked by Old Lady Shen, Lu Rou suddenly felt guilty.

Could she say that she was just a little bit away from telling the truth?

Judging from the questions Xu Yuan asked her at that time, he must have doubted something.

Fortunately, Brother Yun'an showed up in time, which prevented things from becoming irreversible.

But Old Lady Shen was so aggressive now that Lu Rou absolutely did not dare to tell the truth.

Shen Yun'an saw that something was wrong and interrupted their conversation.

"Mother, you don't have to worry about these things. The doctor said that you need to recuperate."

Shen Yun'an said to Old Lady Shen.

"What are you waiting for? Send the old lady back to the courtyard."

Shen Yun'an ordered outside, and two little maids came in immediately.

Seeing Shen Yun'an like this, Old Lady Shen was a little annoyed, but she could only remind him, "Yun'an, don't miss the big thing because of your kindness."

It was not until Old Lady Shen left that Lu Rou's hanging heart was quietly put down.

"Brother Yun'an, the old lady..."

Shen Yun'an looked at the redness and swelling on Lu Rou's face and said helplessly, "Rou'er, I can tolerate your temper on weekdays, but how can you do this in front of mother?"

"And what did you say to Xu Yuan at the Duke's Mansion? Did you really tell her the truth?"

Shen Yun'an stared at Lu Rou closely, which was also what he was worried about.

The words he heard when he arrived were enough to make him panic, not to mention that Lu Rou had been away from him for a while.

Just thinking about it, Shen Yun'an became more and more uncertain about what Lu Rou did.

"Brother Yun'an, I understand the seriousness of the matter, but I think Xu Yuan has already had doubts."

"Where do you get this from?" Shen Yun'an frowned and asked Lu Rou.

"Brother Yun'an, if Xu Yuan had no suspicion, why would he send so many people from the Duke's Mansion to protect him, and why did he quietly bring Yi'er back to the Duke's Mansion after Yi'er fell ill?" "

There must be something strange about this."

Hearing Xu Yuan say this, Shen Yun'an really thought that Xu Yuan had said some specious words in front of him.

Perhaps Rou'er's suspicion was not false.

Xu Yuan might really know something.

Seeing Shen Yun'an silent, Lu Rou became more nervous.

"Brother Yun'an, if Xu Yuan really knew the truth, then she must want to use these things to retaliate against our Yi'er."

"You must rescue our Yi'er."

Lu Rou said as tears flowed again.

"I will investigate whether Xu Yuan knows the truth, but Rou'er. You also heard what my mother said just now. If you do anything else, I'm afraid I won't be able to plead for you anymore."

"You should take good care of yourself these days and don't go anywhere else."

Shen Yun'an was thinking about whether Xu Yuan knew the truth, and he didn't want to stay with Lu Rou any longer.

Lu Rou could only watch Shen Yun'an leave. Just as she was about to get angry, the redness and swelling on her face hurt so much that she couldn't bear it.

It was all because of the old lady Shen. If she could get rid of her, her life in the mansion might be better.

"Liu'er, did you get the things I asked you to buy that day?"

Lu Rou asked the maid.

The maid called Liu'er came to Lu Rou tremblingly and looked at her with fear, "Lu... Aunt Lu, are you really going to do this?"

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Lu Rou said angrily. Since these people don't want to make her life easy, then don't even think about having a peaceful life.

Whether it's Xu Yuan or anyone else, if they bully her, they must die.

...

Regent's Mansion.

"Yun Xiao, how about the matter that the king asked you to investigate?"

After returning to the mansion, Ye Siyan thought about what happened in the Duke's Mansion and the child born by Xu Yuan, and felt more and more unusual.

When Xu Yuan and Xu Jing left, he was going to go with them, but he accidentally discovered that the child named Yier had a small mole behind his ear that was exactly the same as his own.

Speaking of which, this child also looks similar to himself.

Thinking of what happened a year ago, it was hard for Ye Siyan not to connect these things.

From Xu Yuan's pregnancy to childbirth, and then to the birth of the child, everything seemed to be right.

But these are only Ye Siyan's guesses. To confirm these, he needs more evidence.

"My lord, I have followed the clues of the year and only know that the woman who saved you is now in the capital. As for who she is, please give me some more time."

Ye Siyan nodded lightly.

"Yun Xiao, have you seen Xu Yuan's child?"

Ye Siyan asked Yun Xiao.

Yun Xiao was stunned, as if he didn't expect the master to suddenly ask about these things, and nodded in response, "I have seen it."

"The little boy born by Miss Xu is very cute.

" "Then you didn't find that the child has similarities with this king."

This made Yun Xiao's eyes widen, "Master, you mean Miss Xu is the one who..."

So the time point is indeed right, but Yun Xiao asked a little nervously, "Master, Miss Xu is the wife of Lord Shen."

"Then I think little Master Yi'er is also..."

"Do you think that the one who can replace your son is your own flesh and blood?"

Regarding the relationship between Yi'er and himself, Ye Siyan just felt that there was a connection in the dark, as for whether it was still necessary to verify it.

But Shen Yun'an's behavior made Ye Siyan narrow his eyes slightly, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

"Investigate along this point."

"Yes!"

Yun Xiao bowed his hands and responded, and his heart was deeply shocked. If Miss Xu was really the one who saved the master a year ago, then little Master Yi'er must be the master's blood.

Once this is proved, the Marquis's Mansion will not be far from a catastrophe.

With these clues, Yun Xiao had a breakthrough in his investigation.

Duke's Mansion.

Xu Yuan held the child in his arms, Cui Liu followed beside him, constantly looking at Yi Er and muttering to herself.

"Why are they so similar..."

Xu Yuan heard Cui Liu's words and was puzzled when he saw her confused expression.

"Cui Liu, what did you say was so similar?"

Xu Yuan asked Cui Liu.

After hearing Xu Yuan's question, Cui Liu finally reacted, "Miss, do you think the young master looks similar to His Royal Highness the Regent?"

"Regent?"

Xu Yuan was shocked by Cui Liu's words. She looked at Yi'er again, and her expression changed from confusion to surprise.

It seemed that Yi'er and Ye Siyan did have some similarities. Coupled with the small mole she saw earlier, Xu Yuan suddenly had an extremely incredible thought.

Is it possible that Yi'er's biological father is Ye Siyan?

But is this possible?

How could Ye Siyan appear in that place?
