Chapter 298 Find someone to pretend to be the child
Following the issuance of the imperial edict, the package swap case spread throughout the capital at lightning speed.
When the major families in the capital received the news, they were all stunned.
Yu Jin is actually not the biological daughter of the eldest princess, but the child born to Yu Dingquan and his wife. How beautiful the wife must be to be able to be so fascinated by Yu Dingquan and even do such an incomprehensible thing.
Crazy things.
Abandoning his own biological son just so that his illegitimate daughter can enjoy a distinguished status. He can't do such a thing without eight pounds of water in his brain, right?
"I didn't expect that Yu Dingquan is actually an infatuated person."
"Bah, if he is really infatuated, why should he marry the eldest princess? He might as well marry his beloved and let her be his wife. It was he who asked to marry the eldest princess, not the eldest princess who rushed to marry him.
He is fine now. Not only did he end up dead, but he also brought trouble to his family."
"Yu Guogong was not able to keep his title at the end of the festival. He was so implicated by his own son that he could no longer keep his title. He was demoted and deposed."
"Not only that, several girls in the Yu family have also been implicated and have no good marriages. I don't know who Yu Jin's biological mother is. She asked Yu Dingquan to leave the beautiful and noble princess alone and be completely devoted to her. In the past, she also
I haven’t heard of any women around Yu Dingquan. Isn’t he famous for his purity?”
"If you know people and their faces but not their hearts, Your Majesty will never accuse him unjustly."
“I don’t know where the eldest princess’s real child was sent?”
Some noble ladies in the capital feel as disgusted as swallowing a fly when they think that Yu Jin, who has been tyrannizing over them all these years, is just an illegitimate daughter. If Yu Jin hadn't been grounded until now, they would have hated it.
When they came to Yu Jin, they paid back the humiliation they had suffered. What puzzled them was that the emperor had only allowed Yu Jin to remain grounded and did not send her to hell. Could it be that the growing princess really still misses the relationship between mother and daughter these years?
?
They didn't know that the reason why Emperor Rong Ji kept Yu Jin was just to catch more evildoers from the previous dynasty.
This matter can be said to be the biggest gossip in the capital this year. From the nobles to the common people, they are talking about it. While they sneer at Dingquan, they can't help but sympathize with the real royal prince who was abandoned.
As soon as Yuan Suifeng received the news, he couldn't wait to tell his brother.
"Speaking of which, Yu Jin's birth time is quite close to that of my brother. You are only one day apart."
"I heard that His Majesty is looking for the whereabouts of that young master."
Yuan Suijun said casually: "It's quite a coincidence." Then he picked up the book and continued reading.
For Yuan Suijun, he didn't care who the eldest princess's son was. After knowing that Yu Jin was already a grasshopper after autumn and could no longer jump up, he breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he still couldn't avenge the poison with his own hands, which was a bit regretful.
Yuan Suijun quickly put this matter behind him. For him, what was more important was the imperial examination in March.
Although the results of the proficiency test have not yet come out, Yuan Suijun is very confident that he will be on the list.
When Yuan Suifeng saw this, he didn't want to disturb his elder brother's studies, so he simply went out to the teahouse to continue listening to those people's gossip.
…
Yu Guogong's Mansion, no, now it is Yu Guogong's Mansion, it can be said that it is gloomy and gloomy at this time.
When Uncle Yu saw the body of his second son, he instantly aged twenty years, but he still had to hold on to express gratitude.
At this time, the less they can show resentment. Dingquan committed the crime of deceiving the emperor. Even if the emperor wanted to punish the nine tribes, it was in line with the law. Just demoting officials and demoting them was already based on their ignorance.
It's a mercy outside the law.
Despite this, he couldn't help but shed muddy tears.
Dingquan is confused!
For such a woman, he not only ruined his own life, but also made it difficult for his family to hold its head high outside.
"Princess, he is so cruel. After a night of kindness, she actually watched Dingquan die." What Mrs. Yu loves most is her second son who looks most like her. After receiving the news of her son's death, she
I've been so sad these days that I can't even eat.
"Shut up! Don't you think your family is unlucky enough now? If this word gets out, I won't be able to protect you."
Uncle Yu endured his sorrow and scolded his old wife.
Mrs. Yu's voice was filled with tears, "Can't I even complain a few words in my own room?"
"Dingquan has been gentle and considerate to the princess over the years, and he has been devoted to her, but in the end he still can't warm her heart." She said that part of the problem was also due to the eldest princess's own incompetence, and she didn't even notice that the people around her had betrayed her.
Uncle Yu's face darkened, "If you keep talking nonsense, I can only send you to Zhuangzi to recuperate."
Their Yu family is already in a precarious state and cannot withstand a second round of blows.
The old woman Yu shut up and wept silently. The only thing she was happy about now was that when she wanted to kiss her, Yu Jin didn't fall in love with her grandson. At that time, she was angry with Yu
Jin had no vision, but now he breathed a sigh of relief.
Otherwise, if her good grandson marries that illegitimate daughter of Yu Jin, he might become a laughing stock in the capital.
"Master, how will we live our lives in the future?"
Uncle Yu said: "What we can do now is to compensate for Dingquan's sins during his lifetime and find our grandson as soon as possible."
If you can treat him well and make his heart tilt towards the home, the Yu family may have a chance to recover in the future.
Although His Majesty sentenced the eldest princess and Dingquan to be reconciled, the blood relationship between the child and the Yu family cannot be broken. He is his direct grandson.
The old woman Yu didn't feel that the child was still alive. But she also knew that if the child was really dead, then the Yu family would never be able to rise again in this life.
She is used to being the condescending wife of a prince, and having her bow her head to those whom she looked down upon before is even more uncomfortable than killing her.
A thought suddenly came to Mrs. Yu's mind, and she couldn't help but grab her husband's hand and whispered: "The child was thrown into the temple not long after he was born. I'm afraid he won't survive."
The emperor is now looking for someone in a big way, probably to give the eldest princess a hope. But she heard the news that the eldest princess in the palace is ill again.
"Shut up!" Uncle Yu growled in a low voice.
"And even if he is alive, when he is found and knows his life experience, he will definitely hate Dingquan to death. How can he be willing to intercede for our family?"
"Why don't we secretly find a child who is similar in age to the eldest daughter and pretend to be that child?"
The more Mrs. Yu thought about it, the more she felt that her idea was a good one. They had the handle of the counterfeit, and the counterfeit would definitely choose to help their Yu family in order not to reveal their identity.
The eldest princess ignored the love between husband and wife and cruelly sent Dingquan to the road of hell. She wanted the eldest princess to never find her biological son and be played by them in the palm of their hands.

It's a bit uncomfortable to have my period, and I overslept, so the update is a bit late.
