“Forget it.”

She thought about it carefully.

“Empress Dowager, it’s time for breakfast.” Hui Xiang respectfully placed the food in front of Empress Dowager Yunzi.

Empress Dowager Yunzi’s mood was still heavy. She sighed and acknowledged the meal. She picked up her chopsticks and began to eat breakfast.

“Erfu, I’m going to bring Jiang Yue to Master Gu e s house to practice martial arts.” After breakfast, Xue Yan held Jiang Yue’s hand and said this to Erfu. “Alright, alright, alright.” Xue Erfu answered while holding a rag and preparing to wipe the counter. “I’ll keep an eye on the shop. Go ahead. If there’s anything in the shop, I’ll send someone to look for you. Master Gu t s house is in the big courtyard behind Quanping Inn, right?”

“Yes.” Xue Yan and Jiang Yue both nodded.

Shao Zhongxi had already bought the mansion next to it even though he did not live in the mansion. In reality, he lived in the inn in front of it.

Then, Xue Yan and Jiang Yue left the rice noodle shop.

It wasn’t until they were a little far away from the rice noodle shop that they turned into a suspicious looking alley. They wanted to take a shortcut to Quanping Inn.

Seeing that there was no one in the alley, Jiang Yue took out the bag from her s.p.a.ce that contained the clothes Xue Yan was wearing when Xue Dafu picked him up and the swaddling clothes wrapped around him.

Xue Yan calmly received this bundle and continued walking.

Xue Yan was carrying that bundle in one hand and holding Jiang Yue’s hand in the other. Just like that, they came to the vicinity of Quanping Inn.

Shao Zhongxi’s men, who were disguised as commoners, were all around Quanping Inn. They were keeping an eye on them in case something like last night happened again.

As soon as Xue Yan and Jiang Yue entered Quanping Inn, they were invited to Empress Dowager Yunzi’s room on the second floor.

Empress Dowager Yunzi’s room was also divided into an inner room and an outer room. At this moment, Empress Dowager Yunzi was sitting on the brick bed in the outer room. Below the brick bed were two rows of circular chairs.

The first circular chair on the left sat Shao Zhongxi, and Qi Yin stood behind Shao Zhongxi. The first circular chair on the right sat the Imperial Censor, and on the second circular chair on the right sat the Minister of Justice.

They were all dressed in ordinary clothes.

When the Imperial Censor and the Minister of Justice saw Xue Yan arrive, they both stood up and bowed in greeting. Xue Yan also bowed in greeting.

Shao Zhongxi naturally stood up as well.

Hui Xiang had already taken the bag the kids brought in.

The bag was opened and placed on the table.

Empress Dowager Yunzi did not expect to find the clothes and swaddling items her grandson had worn. When she saw the contents of the bundle on the table, she was immediately shocked.

He was really… really her grandson.

Her daughter-in-law, Shao Youyue, had sewed it herself when she was pregnant. On the morning of her grandson’s disappearance, she had actually carried her grandson in this exact clothing. At that time, her grandson was wearing this s.h.i.+rt and wrapped in this swaddling cloth.

Empress Dowager Yunzi’s hands trembled as she touched the things on the table. It was really her grandson… Really… Even Wei Zizhan himself had said that the jade pendant was actually with Xue Yan in the beginning… It must be…

Xue Yan asked Jiang Yue to sit down. Only then did he bow again and explain in detail what he and Jiang Yue had investigated.

“Laicai and Xiuhua are at Quanping Inn. As for the other witnesses, the Empress Dowager can also send someone to check carefully to see if what this commoner said is true.”

Empress Dowager Yunzi was already certain that Xue Yan was her grandson, but she still turned towards the Minister of Justice.

“Don’t worry, Empress Dowager. I’ll investigate this matter immediately,” the Minister of Justice said.

Then, he brought his men to question the witnesses.

For the sake of caution, Empress Dowager Yunzi still did not confirm that Xue Yan was her grandson.

Since that was the case, the Imperial Censor naturally did not change his address of Xue Yan as His Highness the Crown Prince..
