Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability

Chapter 2209: Chapter 2209: What Deception of the Throne?

“What has Zun’er done wrong to have his right to inherit the new Emperor’s throne taken away?”

“Mother, Zun’er is your legitimate biological grandson!”

Hearing the Empress’s words, the Empress Dowager’s face turned as dark as ink, almost convinced to believe it for a moment.

“Legitimate biological grandson?”

She cast a piercing gaze at the child in the Empress’s arms, wishing she could order someone to drag him out and demand the truth: whose biological grandson is he really?

“Empress! What a noble Empress Dowager of the Central Emperor! And what a crafty General Ning! To deceive the throne—how brazenly you’ve done it!”

The Empress’s sorrowful expression faltered. Staring at the Empress Dowager, an ominous suspicion formed in her heart, making her tremble uncontrollably. She held her son tighter in her arms.

“Mother Dowager, what do you mean by those words? What deception of the throne? You cannot unjustly accuse the Ning family of such a grave crime.” She steadied herself and spoke to the Empress Dowager.

“Unjustly accused, you say?”

The Empress Dowager moved one step closer with each word, pressing the Empress further.

“These so-called unjust accusations—are they about you not being the biological daughter of the Ning family? Or about your grand vows of love with General Ning? Or perhaps… about that illegitimate child you bore with General Ning, the one you’re holding in your arms?!”

If not for the seizing of the General’s Mansion, they never would have discovered that the so-called legitimate heir to the Central Imperial throne—a noble Emperor’s son—was a complete outsider, entirely unrelated to the Central Imperial lineage!

This scheme was truly audacious. To raise a Ning family child under the Central Imperial name, only to one day hand over the throne to a Ning descendant? Truly a marvelously cunning play!

“What a brilliant Empress! What a brilliant General Ning! Such painstaking devotion to the Central Imperial Country!”

“I…”

The Empress was so frightened that she could barely form a word. Her lips quivered uncontrollably.

She desperately wanted to ask—how did they find out? This secret was known only to her brother; no one else had any knowledge of it.

The people of the General’s Mansion had no right to meet her, the Empress, as the Old General and the Old Madam had both passed away long ago. She had been sent to the palace only after her brother became the head of the household.

Before entering the palace, no one in the General’s Mansion had ever seen Miss Ning.

Thus, she had always believed that aside from her brother, no one else could possibly know her true identity. Over the years, she and her brother had been exceedingly cautious, leaving no evidence that could be used against them.

Yet, despite all their meticulous care, how did the Empress Dowager come to know of this?

She should not know!

“No… impossible… there’s no way you could know…”

Her deepest, most guarded secret was laid bare, and she was utterly panicked. She shook her head violently, murmuring repeatedly in disbelief.

How had anyone discovered this truth? Her brother loved her deeply and would never betray her. They were still waiting for Zun’er to ascend to that supreme position.

Could it be that because Zun’er had not been named the new Emperor, her brother had chosen to abandon both her and her son?

That was even more impossible. Her brother would never do such a thing.

The Empress Dowager listened to her muttered denials, her furious eyes glaring at her, taking a deep, seething breath.

“You’ve really done it, haven’t you? One is Wanyu’s biological brother, and the other is her first cousin. Two of her closest kin—they conspired to murder her and then impersonated her to enter the palace and claim the title of Empress!”

Truly, she had never imagined that the Ning family was capable of such despicable acts.
