Yesterday, Jin Qilan heard what Shang Kelan and Jin Yantang said.

At this moment, he didn't know how to face Shang Kelan, so he lowered his head quietly and said to Shang Kelan: "Sister Lan, I want to talk to Aunt Gardenia for a while, and there are some things I want to ask her." ”

He had already shown his true side in front of Shang Kelan, so he didn't hide his emotions at the moment.

When Shang Kelan went to find Jin Qilan yesterday, she hadn't seen him, thinking that Jin Qilan had something to do, but now it seems that Jin Qilan is just avoiding her, and she doesn't know what the reason is.

At this moment, Jin Qilan offered to talk to Gardenia, but Shang Kelan did not object, but staggered her body to give up her position, and smiled at Jin Qilan: "Gardenia is inside, His Royal Highness the Prince, be careful when you go in, don't be fallen." ”

Although she is only four years old, Jin Qilan is sometimes calm and calm like a little adult.

After Shang Kelan saw him enter the dormitory, she closed the door so that the two could talk.

Then, she turned around and walked outside, and the palace maid standing by the door saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward to help her and said, "Miss Lan, where are you going?" The slave and maid will accompany you, do you want the slave and maid to arrange a sedan chair for you? ”

Shang Kelan shook her head with a slight smile, and said to her, "No need, I just want to go to the Imperial Garden for a walk, and it's great to have you with me." ”

Seeing this, the palace maid nodded, didn't speak again, and helped Shang Kelan to walk outside.

At this time, inside the dormitory.

As soon as Jin Qilan walked in, Gardenia, who heard the movement, called her: "Miss, who is here?" ”

Gardenia said as she cleaned up the bed and turned around to look at Jin Qilan.

Picking it up, he came to the table and sat down, folded his hands on the table, looked at Gardenia slightly and asked, "Aunt Gardenia, do you say that my queen mother is really dead?" ”

He always cared about what Shang Kelan said yesterday, so he had to find out what was going on with her saying that she was his real mother.

"It turned out to be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but why did you think to ask me this question? What about Miss Lan, why didn't she come in? ”

Seeing that it was Jin Qilan, Gardenia breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked Jin Qilan.

Seeing this, Jin Qilan replied first: "I said I wanted to talk to you about something alone, so she didn't come in, presumably she had already gone to the Imperial Garden at this time, right?" ”

Hearing this, Gardenia nodded clearly, then came to Jin Qilan's side and squatted down, and looked at him at eye level: "His Royal Highness the Prince, your queen mother is a very gentle and kind person, she is also a young lady I grew up with, we are like sisters, but unfortunately she died at the hands of Concubine Jia more than three years ago because of the Wuxu Rebellion." ”

The Wuxu Rebellion refers to the chaotic struggle between the eldest princess and Concubine Jia more than three years ago when they rebelled against the imperial court, staged a coup d'état and rebelled.

At that time, the war directly caused the imperial court to lose a lot of talents, and Shang Kelan also drank poison to save Jin Qilan and died.

Jin Qilan had learned about these things, so after Gardenia finished speaking, he couldn't help but shake his head. One eight

lowered his eyes and said hesitantly: "Aunt Gardenia, I ...... yesterday I overheard Sister Lan outside the door saying that she was my biological mother, what was going on? Aunt Gardenia, I already knew something was wrong, when she first appeared, your attitude towards her was not like this at all, you seemed to be friendly to her all of a sudden, what the hell happened here? Can you tell me why? ”

The young Jin Qilan had doubts and curiosity about Lan Ke's identity, and he was also a little apprehensive and expectant.

The reason why he came to Gardenia was that he just wanted to confirm the relationship between Lan Ke and him with Gardenia.

Gardenia looked at Jin Qilan in some surprise, and then looked stunned for a moment, then smiled at him gently, stroked his little head and said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you have never been a person who is a mother, if you really want to know the truth of Lan Ke's words, then I can only tell you that what she said is true, and it is indeed the queen mother who died more than three years ago." ”

Although he had always wanted to know the truth, the doubts in his heart were suddenly admitted by Gardenia, Jin Qilan only felt that his little heart suddenly stopped beating, and then when he beat again, his heartbeat increased a little.

"How so? That—then why hasn't she come back to see me for so many years? And they haven't recognized me, why? Aunt Gardenia? ”

Immediately afterwards, after Jin Qilan came back to his senses, he grabbed the sleeve of the gardenia tightly and asked.

Seeing that he was emotional, Gardenia first pressed his shoulder, and only after he calmed down a little did Gardenia sigh.

Said helplessly: "I guess you have already found out, right?" Miss Lan looks different from the previous queen, so almost no one can be sure that Miss Lan is the previous queen, but the two are indeed the same person, and it is only because of something that happened that Miss Lan has never come to see you. ”

In fact, the reason why she said this to Jin Qilan was also because Gardenia was running out of words, and she didn't know how to tell Jin Qilan the truth.

Do you want her to tell him directly in front of Jin Qilan: In fact, your mother is not dead at all, but just borrowed the corpse to return her soul?

This is outrageous, Jin Qilan is so smart, nine times out of ten, he won't believe her.

However, seeing Gardenia say this, Jin Qilan was stunned again, then raised her eyes slightly to look at her, and said with a puzzled look in her eyes: "Is it really because she is inconvenient to come to see me, so she has not appeared in front of me for so many years?" Moreover, Sister Lan is indeed my biological mother? ”

Although Gardenia has repeatedly affirmed that he and Shang Kelan are biological mother and son, Jin Qilan is still a little unsure.

Growing up, everyone told him that his mother was killed by Concubine Jia, but only he knew that his mother died after eating poison to save him.

When Jin Qilan thought of this, his eyes couldn't help but darken.

From the initial apprehension and anticipation, my heart has become uneasy and guilty.

Before thinking about it, he was still a little targeted at Shang Kelan.

After getting along with Jin Qilan for so long, he could know what he was thinking with just one look at his gardenia.

So, Gardenia reached out and touched his little head, and comforted: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, don't think too much, Miss Lan can't come back to see you because of her hardships, and now that she is back with us, isn't it very good for us?" This matter must be kept secret, and no one else can know her identity, otherwise it will not be good for you and Miss Lan, understand? ”

Jin Qilan probably understood what Gardenia meant, all in all, now that Lan Ke is his biological mother's identity, he wants to keep it secret, he only needs him to know.

So, Jin Qilan held her fingers slightly, and then her eyes gradually looked at Gardenia firmly, and nodded to her: "I know, Aunt Gardenia, I will keep this matter secret for my mother." ”
