Rumor Has It That I’m Pregnant with His Highness’ Child

Xiao Juan slipped into the city in disguise and did not attract anyone's attention.

He quietly returned to the Prince's Mansion, and found that the mansion had been turned into a mess, even the soil in the garden had been turned over.

Looking at this posture, it seems that he is looking for something.

After a little thought, Xiao Juan guessed that the emperor should be looking for the whereabouts of the charred corpse.

But Yu Nianiao never hid the charred corpse in the county prince's mansion at all, the people sent by the emperor could only return empty-handed.

Then Xiao Juan quietly went to Yu Mansion again.

The birthday banquet was held in the palace today, and Yu Kangtai went to the palace early in the morning, only Yu Sheng and Yu Pingping were left at home.

When they saw King Lang appear suddenly, they were all startled.

Yu Sheng: "His Royal Highness, didn't you go to Liaodong County? Why are you here?"

Xiao Juan: "This king came back in secret, to do something, I hope you don't tell it."

After seeing the two brothers and sisters nodding in response, Xiao Juan continued to ask.

"Have you seen Niao Niao recently?"

Both siblings shook their heads, expressing that they had never seen each other.

Yu Pingping couldn't help but asked, "Why do you ask that? Is something wrong with my sister?"

Xiao Juan didn't want them to worry blindly, so he changed his mouth into a lie.

"It's okay, she's fine now. Has anything strange happened in your family recently?"

Yu Sheng thought for a while and said, "There's nothing special about my visit recently, but the emperor once sent people to our house, saying that he was looking for something very important. Those people searched our house all over, but there was nothing. Found it. I asked them what they were looking for, but they told me not to ask, brother-in-law, what is going on here?"

Xiao Juan knew in his heart that the scorched corpse was a thorn in the emperor's heart, as long as the scorched corpse was not found for a day, the emperor would not be completely at ease.

The emperor failed to find the charred corpse in the county prince's mansion, so he sent someone to Yu's mansion to look for it.

It's a pity that I still returned empty-handed.

Xiao Juan didn't intend to explain, but reminded in a deep voice.

"Hurry up and pack your bags. When your father comes back, leave Yujing with him. The farther you go, the better."

After speaking, he turned and left.

Yu Sheng and Yu Pingping chased them out in a hurry, wanting to find out.

But when they chased outside the house, they found that the courtyard was empty.

The figure of King Lang has long since disappeared.

After Xiao Juan left Yu's mansion, he was about to enter the palace to have a look, but he happened to meet Zheng Changle who was in a hurry near the palace.

Zheng Changle lowered his head, his legs were flying upside down, and he was still muttering incessantly.

"Langjun Wang, Langjun Wang, where do I go to find Langjun Wang? Junfei, you are too embarrassing for others..."

As a result, because he was running too fast, he accidentally bumped into someone.

When he raised his head to see the other person's face clearly, he couldn't help but exclaimed.

"His Royal Highness!"

Xiao Juan was also surprised: "Why are you here?"

Zheng Changle thought to himself that this is too coincidental, there is nowhere to find it, it is so easy to get here!

He didn't even care about etiquette, he hurriedly grabbed Prince Lang's forearm and said eagerly.

"I'm just looking for you! I just saw the Princess of the County in the palace. She said that there was something wrong in the palace, and she told me to come out of the palace to find you. Do you know what happened in the palace? Our theater troupe won't be implicated, right? ?”

When Xiao Juan heard the word accident, his heart suddenly jumped, and he had a bad premonition.

He pulled the man behind a big tree and asked in a low voice.

"Calm down, how did you meet the county princess? How is she doing now? Please speak carefully."

Facing Shanglang County King's dark and deep eyes, Zheng Changle calmed down a little.

He recounted in detail how he met Yu Niao from the beginning to the end.

After Xiao Juan listened carefully, he had already made up his mind.

It seems that Niao Niao should be held hostage by the prince, and she will not be able to escape for a while.

Fortunately, she is still safe and sound, so there should be no danger for the time being.

Xiao Juan felt at ease, as long as she was fine.

He exhorted solemnly.

"After you go back, don't tell others about the princess of the county."

Zheng Changle still had something to ask, but because he was afraid of King Lang's aura, he could only nod honestly and said, "Yes."

Although meeting Zheng Changle was unexpected, it didn't change Xiao Juan's plan to enter the palace.

He raised his head and looked at the majestic palace wall, his eyes were extremely firm——

Curly, wait for me.

I'll be coming to pick you up soon!

...

When it was almost noon, the number of people below the stage gradually increased.

Surrounded by the crowd, the old emperor, Empress Dowager Deng, Empress Wen and others sat firmly on the main seat in the middle.

The others sat down one after another according to their identities.

The position of Yu Niaoling is very ingenious. From her angle, she can see the whole picture below the stage, but the people below the stage cannot see her.

She glanced over and quickly found the figure of the old emperor among the crowd.

Because of the distance, I couldn't hear what he was saying, but judging from his appearance, he seemed to be in good spirits.

I thought he was terminally ill and there was no cure for it, but I didn't expect his body to get better.

This is really in line with the old saying——

A good man does not live long, but a scourge lasts for a thousand years!

Yu Niao suppressed the grievance in her heart, and turned to look at the Empress Dowager Deng who was sitting next to the old emperor.

As today's protagonist, Empress Dowager Deng is naturally the focus of attention. After careful dressing, she is really graceful and luxurious.

It's a pity that she's been unwell recently, and she doesn't seem to be energetic. Apart from talking to the old emperor occasionally, she hardly makes a sound.

Empress Wen still had that quiet and gentle appearance, she didn't look too obvious, but it made it impossible for people to ignore her existence.

Further down is the crown prince Shen Zhuo. He is wearing the crown robe representing the identity of the prince today. He looks a little more luxurious and solemn than usual, and even his gestures are extraordinarily graceful.

He seemed to have noticed that someone was looking at him, so he suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction where Yu Niaoyao was.

Yu Niaoyou subconsciously hid to the side.

But soon she realized that it was superfluous, and she couldn't see her from Shen Zhuo's perspective.

When the auspicious time arrives, the birthday banquet begins.

First, the dancers performed a dance on stage, which made the atmosphere lively.

The delicious food and wine were served on the table like flowing water, and the tempting aroma of the food and wine diffused in the air, accompanied by the melodious sound of silk and bamboo, which really fascinated people.

When the atmosphere is almost the same, it is the link of gift giving and birthday celebration.

From princes and princesses to civil and military officials, to foreign envoys, and even representatives of aristocratic families from all over the world, they all came forward to offer birthday gifts.

In order to take this opportunity to win the Queen Mother's favor, everyone racked their brains to search for all kinds of rare and exotic objects.

Therefore, the birthday gifts presented today are all kinds of strange things, and there are all kinds of them.

But without exception, they are treasures that money cannot buy.

The long list of gifts made Yu Niao feel drowsy.

When the officials of the Ministry of Rites pronounced the name Jing Guogong Deng Yuchuan, Yu Niao woke up for a moment.
