Rumor Has It That I'm Pregnant with His Highness' Child Chapter 584

   Chapter 584 Two Letters (Part 1)

  Yu Weiwei expressed that he was very puzzled.

   "Since my elder sister is so good, why was my younger sister chosen in the end?"

   Embroidered Yan shook her head: "The slaves don't know either."

  Yu Weiwei remembered the scar on Li Niang's face and tried to ask.

   "Could it be related to the disfigurement of my sister?"

   Even if Li Niang was born too beautiful when she was young, once her face was destroyed, she would never have the chance to enter the palace again.

   Embroidered Yan was surprised: "Miss Deng's disfigurement? This slave has never heard of this."

   As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly remembered.

   "By the way, the servants did hear some rumors back then,

   It was said that the eldest Miss Deng family contracted a serious illness and could not see anyone, so she would be sent back to Luzhou for recuperation.

   But these are just rumors, I can't tell the truth from the fake, the slaves just listened to them and didn't take it to heart.

   Later, the two daughters of the Deng family were invited by Concubine Meng to drink tea in the palace, which further confirmed that the rumors were all nonsense. "

  Yu Chou asked, "Are you sure that the two daughters of the Deng family have entered the palace?"

   Embroidered Yan mama is not sure: "This slave girl has only heard about it, and has not seen it with her own eyes, so there should be no mistake."

   Seeing Yu Lingwei's solemn expression, she couldn't help but ask.

   "Is this important?"

  Yu Weiwei nodded: "Very important!"

   Embroidered Yan: "Please give the slave some time, let the slave think about it."

  Yu Weiwei: "Please."

   She and Luo Pingsha had lunch before continuing to study the charred corpse.

   This time, they are going to start from scratch and carefully check every part of the scorched corpse.

   The result really made them discover something unusual—

   This charred corpse had six toes on its left foot.

  Due to the corpse being burned at high temperature and severely charred, fingers and toes tend to curl up and stick together tightly.

   If they hadn't searched carefully from beginning to end, they might never have found the charred corpse's left foot with one more toe than ordinary people.

  Yu Weiwei immediately recorded this finding in the autopsy report.

   Judging from the current clues, Jiao Shi suffered from severe rheumatism and cardiopulmonary diseases before his death, and his left foot had six toes.

   These are his personal characteristics that can be important clues to verify his identity.

   At this moment, Madam Xiuyan came over.

   She was very apologetic.

   "I'm sorry, but the slave maid is still not sure whether the two sisters of the Deng family all entered the palace."

  Yu Wei said in a warm voice, "Don't worry, you've already helped me a lot."

   Embroidered Yan: "Really?"

  Yu Weiwei: "The words you said have verified some of my conjectures from the side, and they are indeed very helpful to me."

Aunt Xiuyan laughed: "That's good, by the way, just now, Mr. Deng sent someone to the Prince's Mansion, saying that there is something very important to discuss with you and His Royal Highness, and I want to invite you to visit Deng's Mansion as soon as possible. ."

   Hearing this, Yu Lingwei immediately said.

   "Get ready, I'm going to Deng's house."

  Luo Pingsha followed: "I'll go with you."

"Um."

   Embroidered Yan hurriedly said: "Aren't you waiting for His Royal Highness to go with you?"

  Yu Weiwei couldn't wait any longer, and Deng Yuchuan suddenly hurriedly called them over. He must have found clues about Li Niang, and she must go there immediately.

   "When His Royal Highness comes back, tell him that we went to Deng's house."

   After she finished speaking, she hurried out with Luo Pingsha.

  The two rode on horseback and felt Deng's house.

   The gate of Deng Mansion was closed, and there was no one in front of it.

  Luopingsha stepped forward and slammed on the door.

   Soon the door was pulled open from the inside.

   It was a guard who opened the door. When he saw that the people who came were Princess Langjun and Luo Pingsha, he immediately said.

   "My master has been waiting for a long time, please come in."

  Yu Weiwei and Luo Pingsha stepped over the high threshold and strode in.

The    guard led them through the front yard and went straight to the study.

  Deng Luyun was like a door god, quietly guarding the door.

   he said solemnly.

   "Grandpa said, only the princess can go in."

  Yu Weiwei turned his head and said to Luo Pingsha who was following behind him.

   "You wait for me outside."

   "Here."

  Yu Chuan pushed open the door and walked into the study, and saw Deng Yuchuan sitting in a chair, with a dirty mahogany box quietly placed on the desk in front of him.

  Deng Yuchuan seemed to have just cried, with red eyes.

   He looked at the mahogany box in front of him in a trance, his eyes seemed to penetrate the box, and he saw people or things from a long time ago, full of nostalgia and reluctance.

  Yu Cui Cui did not greet him, and asked, "Why did you ask me to come here?"

  Deng Yuchuan raised his right hand and pointed to the mahogany box in front of him.

   "This is the box I dug out from under the laurel tree."

  Yu walked over and saw that the mahogany box had been opened, and there were two folded papers lying quietly inside.

   She glanced at Deng Yuchuan.

  Deng Yuchuan: "Princess Princess, please do it yourself."

  Yu Weiwei then stretched out her hand and picked up the thin piece of rice paper.

   unfold the paper and enter the first line of words, which means—

   It's been a while, how is my brother?

Yu Weiwei was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that Deng Yuchuan had only two younger sisters, one of whom was the Empress Dowager Deng. She would definitely not write a letter to Deng Yuchuan in this way, so the only possibility left was that the letter came from Li Niang's hand!

   Without waiting for her to ask, Deng Yuchuan took the initiative to give the answer.

   "This is Li Niang's handwritten letter."

   When Deng Yuchuan was about to leave the Deng family for the border crossing, Li Niang cried very sadly. Her mother passed away early, and her brother became the closest person to her family.

   She was reluctant to let her brother go, and she did not want to be separated from her brother.

   In order to comfort his sister, Deng Yuchuan planted a sapling of a pear tree behind her boudoir,

   and promised his sister that when the pear tree bears fruit, he will come back.

  Li Niang treasures the pear tree very much. Every time she writes a letter to her brother, she never forgets to mention the growth of the pear tree at the end of the letter.

  Deng Yuchuan knew in his heart that his sister was reminding him not to forget his promise.

  Unfortunately, he finally missed the appointment.

   The pear tree blooms and bears fruit every year, but the return date of my brother is far away.

   As soon as Deng Yuchuan arrived here today, he found a pear tree in the courtyard.

   It reminded him of his sister whom he hadn't seen in years.

   At that time, Li Niang complained to her brother in her book at home and asked him why he didn't go home yet?

   also said that if she died one day, she would bury her suicide note under the pear tree,

   Don't forget to look for the letter under the pear tree when your brother returns home.

   The scenes from the past came to mind.

  Deng Yuchuan didn't know what was going on at the time, but suddenly he had the urge to urge his grandson to dig up the soil under the pear tree.

   As a result, he really dug up a mahogany box.

  There is a letter in the box.

   Even after many years, Deng Yuchuan could still recognize at a glance that the letter was written by Li Niang.

   A joke in the past has now become true.

   Intense grief poured out, making the gray-haired old man cry.

   he choked out.

   "I'm sorry for Li Niang. If I could go home earlier, she wouldn't have to suffer so much, and she wouldn't have to die tragically at the hands of others."
