Chapter 1613: A Lifetime Together 21

eyes again."I owe her and your mother-in-law an apology. Seeing you and Xi'er get along so well now allows me to go back with peace of mind."Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Lingxi, seeing that she remained..."Isn't it"

Dugu Cheng asked cautiously, hearing that the empress dowager was not his biological mother, his first reaction was to want to know if Li Wuyan was his brother

"I don't know either." Li Wu Yan looked at Du Gu Cheng, "Perhaps the true Du Gu Feng died long ago, I'm just Li Wu Yan."

"What do you mean by that"

Dugu Cheng became increasingly puzzled, watching Li Wuyan sigh, "I don't know either. The Empress Dowager said that Xianfei didn't have two children, only one, and you are Xianfei's child, so..."

"Impossible, you look so much like your father, how could it not be...Besides..."

"Nothing is impossible, if it really isn't, then that's fine too." That was his current state of mind. He tried hard to reclaim everything that belonged to him, but in the end, he realized he wasn't that person at all. Suddenly, he felt quite ridiculous.

He had been living under someone else's identity all along. Who is he Who is his biological mother And who is his biological father

Li Wuyan knew nothing, he was very lost inside.

"A-Yan, do you believe what Empress Dowager said Could it be that the Empress Dowager and Prince Yu are intentionally saying this I've lived with the Empress Dowager since I have memory. How could someone replace me And Prince Yu, where does he resemble the Empress Dowager"

He didn't look like her, but his way of doing things was exactly the same as the Empress Dowager.

Li Wuyan looked at Du Gucheng, "You always think on the bright side. We don't even know who our parents are, how could we possibly be clear"

"You've muddled my mind, I remember when you saved your mother, I saw her. Your appearance truly resembles hers."

Li Wuyan shook his head. “I don’t know, I don’t know either. The Empress Dowager said you weren’t her biological child. I asked all the questions she told me to ask.” Li Wuyan suddenly felt very pitiful. His identity had also been taken away by Dugu Cheng. He was his mother’s son, but who was he then He really regretted not asking for clarification when his mother was alive. Now, he didn’t even know who to ask.

The feeling of suffocation and helplessness tormented Li Wu-yan, making him want to cry.

"Let's eat first. We can talk later."

獨孤城看出厲無炎難受，他現在心裡全是疑惑，開始懷疑太後所說的話和譽王說的都是不是假的，這個厲無炎如果真的不是嫻妃的兒子，那厲無炎是誰的孩子？

If Yu Wang is really the Empress Dowager's son, why didn't she let Yu Wang ascend the throne With her ability, she could definitely do so. Dugu City doubted that all of this was a lie.

"Master, the Mistress has returned."

The butler hurriedly stepped forward to report, Feng Lingxi followed behind the butler and walked in. Seeing that they were all there, she hurriedly ran over.

"Seems like I arrived just in time. I haven't eaten yet either."

Feng Lingxi sat down and found that Li Wuyan's face was not right, the smile on his face gradually disappearing.

"Aflame, what's wrong with you"

"I'm fine, this one hasn't eaten yet, here you go." Li WuYan pushed the bowl of rice to Feng LingXi's face, forcing himself to appear calm, but his heart was truly hurting terribly.

Feng Lingxi immediately saw through the situation and looked at Du Gucheng, "You bullied him"

"No, it's just that I feel a little uncomfortable."

Li Wuyan defended Dugucheng, but his heart was truly uncomfortable.

“Something unpleasant has happened, and I want to tell you about it. You just happen to be here to help us figure out what's wrong.”

"Well, as they say, onlookers see more of the game. Perhaps I can see things more clearly."

It was only then that Dugu Cheng told Feng Lingxi about what Yu Wang had said to him today. Dugu Cheng felt conflicted in his heart, as he wasn't the Empress Dowager's biological son. He didn't know how to describe his feelings. The Empress Dowager hadn't treated him like a real mother over the years, but he never thought about it before.

Feng Lingxi looked at Li Wuyan, then at Dugu City, "That is to say, Li Wuyan's mother is your biological mother, and Li Wuyan doesn't know who his real mother is"

Dugu Cheng replied with a laugh, Feng Lingxi sneered again and again.

"What kind of joke is this Li Wu Yan looks so much like Xian Fei, how could he not be Xian Fei's son As for you, the Empress Dowager said that you are not her biological child. Have you ever thought that maybe the Empress Dowager was trying to protect you"

Dugu City frowned and Feng Lingxi explained again, "Think about it, now that things have been exposed, if the Emperor punishes Empress Dowager, you are Empress Dowager's biological son. This will affect your future prospects. Besides, didn't Empress Dowager want to let Si Yu enter the palace before Isn't King Yu also a father If King Yu is Empress Dowager's own son, why haven't we heard of Empress Dowager giving any rewards to King Yu's children"

She's been in the capital for so long, there must be tons of gossip here, right

But she had never heard of the Empress Dowager summoning Wang Yù's children to the palace. Moreover, she had also heard that Wang Yù lived in his own residence, and his children were sent back to Liangzhou. For a father to enjoy wealth and honor in the capital while his sons are left in Liangzhou, is this possible

Moreover, considering Empress Dowager's longing to hold her grandchild, how could she possibly not bring the child to Duke Wei's mansion

"Xi'er means that the Empress Dowager is this king's birth mother But she admitted it herself, and Wang Ye also said that the Empress Dowager is his birth mother."

Is there another possibility, that the current Empress Dowager is not the real Empress Dowager

Li Wuyan suddenly asked the question that had been troubling him, and this question caused Dugu City to falter, his heart pounding.

"Impossible, if she is not my mother's concubine, then who is she"

Dugu Cheng didn't believe it. These years, if it was fake, the Emperor wouldn't have been unaware.

"Then let's investigate. As regent now, it wouldn't be difficult for you to find out if the Empress Dowager is truly who she claims to be," Feng Lingxi comforted Dugu Cheng. "Since there are suspicions, let's get to the bottom of them. Only then can your identities be fully resolved."

"If Empress Dowager wasn't truly the mother, then who would she be"

Dugu City trembled and asked, his concubine mother wouldn't have already...

"Otherwise, I'll accompany you to the palace tomorrow to see her and check on things for you"

"This matter, I will handle it myself." Dugu Cheng intercepted Feng Lingxi. "She has strong opinions about you, so don't go."

"This matter indeed needs to be investigated." Li Wuyan spoke, "Tomorrow I will go to the palace and check Cining Palace first. You should be careful yourself.”

Dugu Cheng nodded. Since the subtle shift in their relationship, the way Dugu Cheng and Li Wu Yan interacted had changed. Perhaps both of them wondered deep down if they were truly blood brothers.

"A-Yan, I have a question for you. Why hasn't Luoli come to find me His poison needs another dose of my blood."

Feng Lingxi hesitated for a moment before asking, "The Empress Dowager's matter needs to be investigated, and Xiao Li's matters can't be delayed either."

"The Yao people have arrived and are watching very closely. He has been out these days."

"Is that Xiao Li"

Feng Ling Xi asked, “That day someone told me that the person who came from the Yao tribe was Xiao Li, but it seemed like Xiao Li had changed into a different person, cold and aloof.”urriedly enlivened the atmosphere, but Dugu Cheng couldn't help but cough at this moment. He hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand, trying to suppress the cough, but he still couldn't hold it back...
