Chapter 393

Emperor nodded and agreed, saying this matter would be discussed with Prince Qing and the officials.

Although granting a posthumous title to a consort is a private matter of the imperial family.

But, what private matters does the imperial family have?

We also need to ask for the officials' opinions, especially that bunch of loudmouths from the Censorate.

If they disagree, this matter will encounter difficulties.

However, the Emperor thinks, what's there to disagree about?

When Prince Qing and Prince Qi enter the palace, he will discuss Sui Sui's identity with them.

The Emperor then had a discussion with them.

The final result is that, since Sui Sui's identity can withstand scrutiny, it should naturally be handled openly and aboveboard.

So, what adoption?

Just normally announce that this is Prince Qing's former daughter, only lost for many years due to various reasons, now found, this is a joyous occasion!

The Emperor also told Prince Qing about granting a posthumous title to his mother: "My meaning is to promote her to consort, then add the two characters of the posthumous title."

Mentioning Consort Wen's status is actually also beneficial to Prince Qing.

Although his mother was not favored during her life and had a low presence.

However, if after death she could receive posthumous honor, that would not be bad either.

Prince Qing did not refuse the Emperor's goodwill.

The small banquet for Sui Sui's identity had just been held not long ago; Prince Qi's meaning is to wait a bit, until the weather cools, then announce her identity.

Prince Qing agreed to that.

His Majesty naturally let them do as they wished.

After everyone had agreed, they then studied the details for a while.

Prince Qi and Prince Qing then went to pay respects to the Empress Dowager, after which they left the palace.

Although Sui Sui has now recognized her father, the child has been living recently in the Qi Wang Fu, obviously well adapted; at this moment, upon suddenly returning to the Qing Wangfu, with no familiar people accompanying her, Prince Qi and the Princess Consort are uneasy.

Therefore, Prince Qi and Prince Qing discussed and decided to let the child temporarily remain in the Qi Wang Fu.

To let Sui Sui recognize her ancestors and return to Prince Qing's side, not wanting to see Prince Qing lonely and pitiful, does not mean that Sui Sui would completely sever ties with the Qi Wang Fu.

"That child calls me Father King; I will certainly take care of her for life."

"Furthermore, your residence lacks any female attendants; how could you properly care for a well-behaved girl?"

"With Wang Sao looking after her, you could also rest easy, couldn't you?"

……

Prince Qi's words were particularly reasonable.

Prince Qing did not refute.

Such a matter, placed on him, he is also not especially willing to let go.

Prince Qi Elder brother's fondness for Sui Sui is undisguised; he always needs to give the other party time to adapt.

Thus, Prince Qing did not say he would take Sui Sui back to the residence, but!!!

He came to the Qi Wang Fu as a guest, and moreover did not leave.

Prince Qi: ……

Sui Sui still quite likes this father, Prince Qing.

Before, Sui Sui was only a little afraid of this uncle, Prince Qing, always feeling his cold expression looked like he wanted to eat a child.

However, after getting along gradually, Sui Sui discovered that Uncle Prince Qing looks fierce but is actually a good person, and often brings her gifts.

Now that he has become her father, Sui Sui is even less afraid!

Prince Qing suddenly came to reside temporarily at the residence; Feng Xuanrui and the others were somewhat surprised.

This matter, the children will eventually have to know.

So, after eating, Prince Qi summoned the two concubines as well, gathered the children together, and briefly explained this matter.

The complicated process was not elaborated; it was only said that Sui Sui is Prince Qing's own flesh and blood, this matter the Emperor has already investigated clearly.

Furthermore, in the afternoon, Prince Qing also recalled the birthmark on Sui Sui's body.

There is a small crescent moon on her lower back.

This birthmark, the Princess Consort of Qi knows, as do Aunt Xiang and Aunt Qiu.

However, a young lady's bodily mark is not suitable to be casually told to outsiders.

Therefore, they keep their mouths shut; they have never mentioned it to others.

It was still Prince Qing who remembered and asked in a low voice.

He was not doubting the information the Emperor investigated; he simply wanted to ask more to reassure both sides.

Prince Qi did not know this birthmark; he looked at the Princess Consort, received an affirmative answer, and then his anxious heart could finally rest.

This child Sui Sui really is Prince Qing's.

There is evidence, and the birthmark as well.

Sui Sui's identity no longer needs to be doubted.

Therefore, Prince Qi, the Princess Consort, the two concubines, and the five sons all said a few words about this matter.

Upon hearing this, Feng Xuanrui felt his sister was no longer his sister but had become the sister in Prince Qing Uncle's residence; he instantly became unhappy: "No, Father King, you can't try a little harder to make my sister my own sister?"

Prince Qi:?

Is that something I can achieve by effort?

Don't be excessive!

On Father King's heart, there still sits a row of little daggers; any touch hurts!

Feng Xuanrui was displeased, and Feng Xuanbin also thought it was excessive.

It was clearly a full sister, so why did it become a cousin?

Feng Xuanbin didn't care, grabbed his waist, puffed out his little chubby belly, and said irritably, "I don't care; anyway, as long as you call me sister, you'll be my full sister for life."

While speaking, he wasn't afraid of Prince Qing any more, ran to Sui Sui, lifted the little girl, and with a smack—, directly kissed Sui Sui's face.

Prince Qing watched his eyelids twitch, but ultimately did not stop him.

Feng Xuanbo wasn't very pleased either, but he didn't throw a tantrum; he only looked plaintively at Prince Qi and said, "Father King, shall the sister continue to stay at the Wangfu for now?"

Prince Qi smiled and nodded, "That is natural."

Whenever Prince Qing is ready, he doesn't care.

Anyway, his obedient one can stay for a day, and a day.

However, Prince Qi will not put Sui Sui in a difficult position.

Ren Ce Fei and Meng Ce Fei were both surprised that Sui Sui could actually be Prince Qing's child!

Prince Qing!

The two actually felt embarrassed to stare at this person any longer.

One is cold towards the other side and has a murderous reputation, so they hardly dare to look.

The other also is not very convenient.

The two are surprised, yet think this is not bad.

Sui Sui has more people caring for her, loving her, and protecting her.

If this child is smooth and satisfied in the future, it will at least make up for the hardships endured before.

When the child falls asleep, Ren Ce Fei and Meng Ce Fei also return to rest.

Prince Qi, the Princess Consort, and Prince Qing sat there, discussing how to deal with the Chen family members.

Chen San Niang, who stole the child, naturally could not be handled lightly, even if the other party is already buried.

But digging it up and whipping the corpse shouldn't be difficult, right?

It's just that we don't know whether we can still locate the tomb that buried her now.

Besides Chen San Niang, the Chen Dalang family cannot be let off either.

There is also a counterfeit at Jin Yangzi Residence.

When the matter was mentioned, Princess Consort of Qi hesitated a moment, then said, "I've heard something on my side, and it always feels a bit… not right."

If it were a husband‑and‑wife night talk, Princess Consort of Qi might not need to hesitate much.

But since Prince Qing is still present, the words need to be weighed carefully.

Therefore, after thinking, Princess Consort of Qi received Prince Qi's nod of approval and then continued, "The parents and siblings of that counterfeit at Jin Yangzi Residence, that is the Chen Dalang family, came to Jing Cheng some time ago; today they were taken back to the Residence by Jin Yangzi Residence. Strangely, in the evening, their whole family was driven out of the house, and the counterfeit was driven out with them."

The second watch is at 19:00.
