Nian Shilan's eyes lit up when he heard Zhou Ninghai's words. If this was true, then the Queen would have nothing to do with this child, whether he was from the Uranala family or not.
"Great, the queen is now speechless.
"yes."
Zhou Ninghai nodded and said: "But Madam, there is one more thing. We haven't found out who the father of this child is yet. If the father of this child is a member of the Ulanala clan, then they still have something to say. of."
"Does Princess Tong Jia know where the child is now?"
Nian Shilan also knew that what Zhou Ninghai said made sense and asked after thinking about it.
"You should know, because Princess Tong Jia has visited the old lady at Uranala's house several times in the past few days."
In fact, Zhou Ninghai had some guesses about the child's life experience, but there was no investigation to confirm it, and he couldn't tell Nian Shilan, so he thought of continuing to investigate and tell Nian Shilan when he was sure.
"Then continue to investigate. As long as it happened, there must be traces."
Nian Shilan is now fully confident about this matter. Regardless of whether the queen knows about it or not, this is the Ulanara family's business, and the queen will definitely have something to do with it.
"My slave thinks so too, so I'll come back and report as soon as I get the news."
Zhou Ninghai and Nian Shilan had the same idea, or Zhou Ning could understand Nian Shilan's thoughts best.
"Okay, remember to tell the people sent out that as long as this matter is investigated, I will benefit from them."
After Nian Shilan finished speaking, he asked Zhou Ninghai to go down.
"Mother, Eunuch Su is here."
As soon as Zhou Ninghai left, Su Peisheng came.
Nian Shilan quickly let people in.
Nian Shilan originally told Su Peisheng to come over a few days ago, but there were too many things going on, so Su Peisheng had time to come over.
"Greetings to the imperial concubine."
Su Peisheng was always courteous to Nian Shilan.
Nian Shilan naturally knew Su Peisheng's purpose and quickly asked him to get up.
"I also know that my father-in-law is busy these days, so I didn't rush him. Songzhi, go get the pieces of ink from me."
Songzhi naturally understood as soon as she heard Nian Shilan talk about Mo.
"Yes, slave, go right away."
After saying that, he closed the door thoughtfully.
"Since your Majesty has something to say, I will definitely tell you everything."
Su Peisheng is a smart man, so he doesn't need to beat around the bush.
Nian Shilan also appreciated this aspect of Su Peisheng the most, so he also smiled.
"Talking to my father-in-law makes me feel comfortable. It's best to go back and forth."
Nian Shilan first praised Su Peisheng, and then said: "My father-in-law has said so, so I won't hide it anymore. I called your father-in-law here today. I want to ask your father-in-law if he knows about Princess Tong Jia." thing."
"Princess Tong Jia?"
Su Peisheng listened to Nian Shilan's words and didn't understand what Nian Shilan meant. What happened to Princess Tong Jia?
"I heard that the marriage between Princess Tong Jia and the Duke of Guo was the result of the Duke's request several times before the late Emperor made the decree."
Naturally, Nian Shilan couldn't ask Princess Tong Jia about her children, so she could only start with Princess Tong Jia's marriage.
"Yes, of course the Duke of Guo fell in love with the princess at first sight, so he begged the late emperor in this poem. However, Empress Dowager Xiao Yiren was not optimistic about the Duke of Guo at that time. At that time, the Queen Mother Xiao Yiren intended to betroth the princess to the emperor. "
What Su Peisheng said was similar to what the emperor said.
"Then why did you agree to it later?"
Nian Shilan didn't want to hear the same words from Su Peisheng and the emperor.
"Later it seemed that Princess Tong Jia agreed."
Su Peisheng thought for a while and said, "That's not true. In fact, Princess Tong Jia had no intention of marrying the emperor. At that time, Princess Tong Jia only regarded the emperor as her brother. Later, when the princess got older, she rarely entered the palace. I’m just afraid that the Queen Mother will point her out to the Emperor.”
"She doesn't want to marry the emperor? Then she has someone she likes?"
Nian Shilan felt that what he said was very clear, and it was up to Su Peisheng to understand it.
If Su Peisheng was not overly concerned about Nian Shilan's words at the beginning, Su Peisheng almost immediately understood the real content of Nian Shilan's question.
Su Peisheng thought about it seriously and said, "I've never heard of this, because Princess Tong Jia was trained by a person with the highest rank in the family. Naturally, she would not be allowed to have too many relationships with other men. However, Princess Tong Jia has a better relationship with her third brother. Because the two are in the same grade, they always play together. Oh, by the way, the one who has the best relationship with the third prince is still the prince of Uranala. , he is also the biological brother of Empress Chunyuan from the same mother."
By the way, this is the answer Nian Shilan wants.
Nian Shilan connected the things almost immediately.
If that's the case, then this prince has a family now, right?
"It's a pity that the prince passed away last year. When he passed away, he didn't leave any heirs."
Su Peisheng didn't see the glint in Nian Shilan's eyes and continued: "But the Ulanala clan heard that a young heir has been chosen and will be adopted into his name."
"I see."
Nian Shilan listened to Su Peisheng's words and thought to himself, this is much faster than Zhou Ninghai's investigation.
As for why Princess Tong Jia didn't marry the heir of the Uranala clan, it was probably because the clan didn't allow it.
When he found out that the princess was pregnant, he quickly got her married.
But then why not marry Uranala first?
"Isn't that prince married?"
Nian Shilan still has doubts.
"We're married, but we don't have any children for some unknown reason."
Su Peisheng also felt strange because the Queen Mother sent many imperial doctors over this incident, but no reason was found out later.
No matter what the reason was, Nian Shilan could conclude that the story about Princess Tong Jia's child was true.
It seems that Ye Guiren knows a lot.
Since Princess Tong Jia has this child, she and He Zishu don't have a child. It seems that she doesn't want it.
But He Zishu's death may not be that simple.
"Does the empress doubt the death of the Duke?"
Su Peisheng wasn't stupid either. Although he couldn't guess why Nian Shilan asked about Princess Tong Jia's marriage, it was definitely related to the previous incident.
"I won't hide it from my father-in-law. I am just suspicious. I am afraid that my father-in-law was deliberately killed."
Although Nian Shilan couldn't say it clearly, he wouldn't say nothing.
Su Peisheng nodded and said: "I also asked the imperial doctor. Although the death of the Duke of Guo seemed normal, the imperial doctor had doubts at that time. He said that although the Duke of Guo was ill, if he was treated in time, he would not have died. life."
