Chang Ming cannot answer this question.

If you answer the question, you will need to pull more and more strings.

"How come your mother served the former Crown Princess and you became Miss Lu Qingshuang's maid?" Chang Ming asked.

Aunt Lu also noticed it, and she probably couldn't answer any questions she asked Chang Ming.

She was not annoyed, she bit her lip and stared for a while, then suddenly raised her hand to wipe away her tears, "When my mother was still alive, I didn't serve Miss Qingshuang. But later something happened in the former Crown Prince's Mansion, and I became a nobody."

An orphan who could return home, Miss Qingshuang took me in and gave me a surname.

We took in Ruan together at that time, but Ruan didn't change her name, she was still called by her original name."

Changming had a vague guess in his heart, "Do you still remember the scene when Miss Qingshuang took you in?"

Aunt Lu pursed her lips and slowly sat down at the round table with support on the table. She placed the portrait flatly on the table and rubbed her mother's eyes on the portrait with her fingers. Aunt Lu looked at the portrait.

"After my mother gave birth to me, in order to take care of the former Crown Princess, I have been living at my aunt's house.

The day before the accident, my aunt's brother took me to the alley to buy nougat. When we returned, the adults in the family were not there. We waited until midnight and did not wait for the adults to come back.

Originally, my brother coaxed me to sleep first, and he stayed behind to guard the door until the master came back so he could open the door for him. However, instead of waiting for the master to come back in the middle of the night, he waited for a fire in the former Prince's Mansion.

The next day, people outside said that the fire completely burned the former Prince's Mansion, and there was not a single living person inside."

Aunt Lu was only seven or eight years old at the time, but that scene was engraved in her bones. She still remembers the scorched blackness she saw when she and her brother stumbled into the former Prince's Mansion.

"My mother... my mother has not been heard from since then, and my aunt and uncle have never come back. My brother was taken away by a troupe leader.

I didn’t see how he was taken away, but a neighbor told me that my brother was snatched away by an opera singer on the street.

When I ran out, I could no longer find my brother.

That's when Miss Qingshuang showed up and asked me if I wanted to go home with her."

Lu Qingshuang and Aunt Lu are similar in age. Aunt Lu's mother used to serve the former crown princess. When she was looking for her mother, she met Lu Qingshuang once in the former crown prince's mansion.

"The Ruan family happened to be selling themselves on the street to bury their father. Miss Qingshuang took us both back to the house. The Ruan family was still the Ruan family, and I became the Lu family."

The past comes out of the mouth, but in a few words.

But the pain in it is impossible to dwell on.

Chang Ming's throat was a little clogged, so he remained silent for a moment before saying, "What was your original surname? Do you still remember your mother's name?"

Aunt Lu shook her head, "I only know that the young lady calls my mother sister, my brother calls my mother aunt, and the people in the former Prince's Mansion call my mother Mother Jiang. I don't know what her name is."

"Then do you know what your brother's name is?" Chang Ming asked casually, not knowing whether he was feeling uncomfortable or something, but this sentence was actually meaningless.

It doesn't matter whether you know or not, it won't affect the matters concerning the former crown princess.

But Aunt Lu's answer shocked his heart.

She said, "My brother called Su Hui to go home, but he never came back."

Aunt Lu was clearly talking about Su Hui, but Chang Ming suddenly thought of Jiang Hui.

Aunt Jiang, Su Hui.

Is it related to Jiang Hui?

Digging the surface of the round table with his fingers, Chang Ming asked along the way, "Do your uncle and your aunt also work in the former Prince's Mansion?"

Aunt Lu shook her head, "I don't know. My aunt is often at home, but my uncle rarely comes back. Sometimes he comes back in the middle of the night."

After a pause, Aunt Lu raised her eyes and looked at Changming, "My uncle, his kung fu is very good."

She didn't know it when she was a child. When she grew up, she missed her family for long nights and remembered all the past, and then she slowly realized that her uncle should be a martial arts master. Perhaps what he did back then was similar to being a bodyguard and follower like Chang Ming and others?

Or maybe it's a secret guard or something?

Aunt Lu has thought about it many times.

But that's just my guess.

"After the incident in the former Prince's Mansion, you and Miss Lu Qingshuang lived in the Lu Mansion. Have you ever heard them talk about the former Prince's Mansion?" Chang Ming asked.

Mr. Lu shook his head and answered firmly, "No."

"Then... is the incident between Miss Lu Qingshuang and His Majesty Beiyan true? Why did it become like that again later?"

When Aunt Lu sent her maid to find Gu Luo in Anbo Prince's Mansion to reveal her identity, Gu Luo wanted to ask clearly about what happened back then.

It's a pity that I was in a hurry to find Xiao Jiayuan. Later, something happened to Mrs. Dingyuanhou, and the Dingyuanhou Mansion was placed under house arrest by the whole family, so I never had a chance.

Since the adventure has come today, Chang Ming naturally wants to ask about it.

Speaking of Lu Qingshuang, Aunt Lu's eyes were soft but a little angry.

"Back then, His Majesty Beiyan was serving as a hostage in our court. He had indeed had a lot of contact with the young lady. The young lady was indeed enamored of him and even mentioned the matter of marriage to the master."

Speaking of this, Aunt Lu's eyes suddenly became sharp and resentful.

"But later, His Majesty held an autumn hunt and took a group of people to live in the palace. The young lady followed the master and his wife to the palace to participate in the autumn hunt. Because I had a stomachache at the time, I did not accompany him. The young lady... the young lady got an emergency in the palace and returned home.

It’ll be gone in less than two days.”

Mentioning this past event again, Aunt Lu was still so excited that she was trembling.

Chang Mingyang frowned slightly, this statement was somewhat consistent with what the old lady of Anping House said at that time.

"What is the disease? Which doctor diagnosed the pulse at that time?" Chang Ming asked with a frown.

Aunt Lu shook her head, "Miss Qingshuang was sent directly to Madam's main room when she came back from the palace. None of us were allowed to go there to serve her. Madam took care of her personally for two days. In the middle of the night two days later, Miss was not allowed."

As she spoke, tears began to flow down her face again.

"I never saw the lady from the beginning to the end."

"Then do you know where she is buried?" Chang Ming said.

Aunt Lu wiped her tears and said, "You want to check the coffin, right?" Aunt Lu bit her lip and shook her head, "It's useless. After the princess entered the hospital, some rumors spread one after another, saying that the princess's mother was the young lady of that year.

Two ladies.

I became suspicious and secretly checked Miss Qingshuang's tomb, but it was long gone.

The princess’s eyebrows are very similar to Miss Qingshuang’s, and with such rumors, I finally wanted to get closer to her.”

After saying that, Aunt Lu's eyes were pleading, "I don't ask you to tell me about my mother, I just ask you to tell me yes or no. Is the princess... the daughter of Miss Qingshuang?"

Chang Ming bit the tip of his tongue.

It is no longer a secret that Gu Luo is Lu Qingshuang's daughter, or that Lu Qingshuang was not dead but was ruined by the second master of the Anping Mansion.

As the carriage of Prince Duankang was smashed in front of the palace gate last time, Gu Heng went into the palace to question it once, and the commotion had already started.

Chang Ming didn't hide it, "To be honest, we have no evidence to prove that she is, but she should be, and the old lady of Anping Mansion also said that she is."
