After hearing this news, the Eldest Princess immediately summoned her trusted subordinate and asked, "Have you finished inquiring about the matter I tasked you with last time?"
The subordinate replied, "Reporting to Your Highness, everything has been verified. This Shangguan Qing is a princess who came out of nowhere. Originally, she was an unloved concubine's daughter from a Marquis's manor in the Li Kingdom, raised on a farm since childhood. Then, through some stroke of luck, word spread that she was Princess Shangguan Qing. However, this is all based on rumors; the old Emperor of the Li Kingdom kept her in the palace for a month or so without ever making a formal announcement to the world."
After speaking, the subordinate presented a booklet containing a detailed record of Yan Weichi's past. Of course, this only covered information that could be gathered on the surface.
