The emperor returned to the Chengde Hall very depressed, and Yuegui stood at the door, seeing him come back alone, with a disappointed expression.

The emperor cleared his throat, "Ahem, the prince is all right in Jingxiu Palace, you don't have to worry." For the time being, he doesn't want to go back, so let him stay a few more days, and you can go to see him at any time if you have my special purpose. ”

Yuegui was a little unconvinced, "The emperor went to pick it up in person, and His Royal Highness didn't want to go back?" ”

The emperor's heart was a little sour, "Well, I don't know that Xiu Yuanshuang gave him sweetness, and he doesn't even want his father." ”

The words are a joke, but Yuegui is even more upset, in the past three days, she has not been to Jingxiu Palace once, because she is very sure that the prince will be willing to come back, the child is the most shrewd, who is good to him, who is not good to him, she has an account in her heart, she doesn't believe that Xiu Yuanshuang is doing better than her.

But now that the facts are in front of her, she won't even go back to pick her up, even if she runs away...... Forget it, the emperor has spoken, she still has to do what she should do.

As soon as the emperor entered the room and sat down, Ning Jiu walked in, although his face was expressionless as usual, but the emperor saw a trace of abnormality, and couldn't help but light up his eyes: "Is there any news?" ”

Ning Jiu took out a small scroll from his arms, "Look at this?" ”

The emperor hurriedly opened the picture scroll and stared closely at the woman on the painting, her face changed and changed, the woman on the picture scroll looked a little like Bai Qianfan, but she was more beautiful than Bai Qianfan, with a goose egg face, big watery eyes, beautiful eyebrows, full red lips, and a Nanyuan dress.

"What is this?"

"This is the Wuyang Princess of Nanyuan."

"Princess?"

"That's what the person with this picture scroll said," Ning Jiu said: "Du Changfeng feels strange, so he asked for a trip to Nanyuan, and is waiting for the emperor's reply." ”

The emperor's fingers gently caressed the woman's face, his eyes were deep, and his voice was deep, "No, I want to go myself." ”

"Your Majesty, there are so many things in the court right now, it's not appropriate for you to go, and besides, the prince has just returned to the court......"

The emperor was silent, the affairs of the court, he could temporarily throw it away, the only thing he couldn't let go of was the prince, although he saw that the prince and Xiu Yuanshuang got along well today, but he went here, the road was far away, even if he took a shortcut from Jane, one back and forth, it would take a few months at the earliest.

For such a long time, anything can happen, he is now bitten by a snake, and he is afraid of the neck rope for ten years, for fear that he will go out and come back like last time, and the person will be gone.

God treats him well and returns his lost son to him, but if something happens again, he really won't be able to live.

He was silent for a while, and said, "Summons Bai Changjian to see me." ”

Ning Jiu took the order and went out, and the emperor looked at the woman on the picture scroll, and felt very affectionate: Qianfan, is this you? It must be you, otherwise how could there be someone in the world who looks so similar? But if it's you, why don't you come back, Lin'er and I are looking forward to you, Qianfan, when I settle Lin'er, I'll go over to pick you up, you must wait for me, wait for me......

In the afternoon of this day, anyone who came to see the emperor was blocked by Hao Pingguan, until Bai Changjian appeared at the door of the palace, Hao Pingguan greeted him from afar, "General Bai is here, please come in, the emperor has been waiting for you for a long time." ”

Bai Changjian held his head high coldly and arrogantly, didn't pay much attention to him, and strode in, for so long, he didn't let go in his heart, he didn't care who was the emperor, he lost his sister, this knot couldn't be untied, even if that person was the emperor, he also stiffened his neck and refused to obey, the emperor appreciated his talent, and still named him the general of the palace yuanzheng, but he was lazy and lazy, sometimes the Hou didn't even go to the court, and the emperor didn't care, let him go.

Today, the emperor was in such a hurry to summon him, he wanted to resist the decree and did not come, but he also had selfish intentions, the prince returned to the palace, and sat on the dragon chair in the Jinluan Palace a few times, he heard this strange news, dressed neatly the next morning, and honestly went to the court, seeing that he was seeing, he couldn't help but be a little disappointed, he looked like Murong Mian, he looked at the old man for a long time, and then he felt that Murong Lin's chin was a bit like Bai Qianfan, all of which were thin and pointed. But Murong Lin's eyes were very indifferent, and there was no brilliance in his eyes, he was very distressed, this is not what a child should be.

He always entered the palace early during that time, just to be able to see Murong Lin in the palace, but the little guy went to the court for a few days, and he didn't come, and then there was not long ago when Mo Ronglin was born at the age of two and saw each other, it was a good atmosphere, but he witnessed Mo Ronglin's murder, the whole person was not good, usually a very arrogant person, that day he could only whisper to apologize to the injured court officials, of course, no one will blame the little prince, it is not taken seriously, and he is very polite to let him not go to his heart.

He doesn't blame Mo Ronglin, it must be that the emperor didn't teach him well, hmph, the emperor doesn't look for him, he still wants to find the emperor.

When he entered the door, the emperor sat at the table, stunned, and there was a small scroll on the table.

He sat down on the chair with a big thorn, a little arrogant, "Your Majesty, I don't know how to call the ministers, what are you doing?" ”

The Emperor glanced at him, "If Qianfan hadn't died, would you have changed your attitude towards me?" ”

Bai Changjian snorted, "Ministers don't like to make false assumptions. ”

The Emperor pointed to the scroll on the table, "Open it and take a look." ”

Bai Changjian opened the scroll suspiciously, dumbfounded on the spot, "This is?" ”

The Emperor stared at him like an eagle foraging for food at night, not sparing any of his subtle expressions.

"You tell me honestly, is Qianfan the daughter of Bai Ruyu?"

Bai Changjian didn't say a word, just looked at the person on the painting, and only let out a heavy breath in the middle of the sound, "No." ”

"Smack!" The emperor's forehead jumped, and he said angrily: "Why didn't you say it earlier, you have hidden it from me for so long?" ”

Bai Changjian lost his temper, and his voice was low, "Everyone is gone, and you still talk about what those do." He asked the emperor, "Who is this bottom, and how is it similar to Qianfan?" ”

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, "This is Princess Wuyang of Nanyuan. ”

"Nanyuan, princess?" Bai Changjian took the portrait in his hand again, looked left and right, thoughtfully.

"What do you see?"

"It's not so much that the person above here is like Qianfan, but more like her mother."

"Have you seen her mother?"

"Yes, I was still young at that time, not long after her mother entered the house, she showed her body, my father was very good to her, especially a quiet yard for her to live, no one can scratch her, for this, the eldest lady has quarreled with my father. I've only seen her a handful of times. ”

"And then?"

"Later, not long after she gave birth to Qianfan, she disappeared, and my father said that she was sick and died after giving birth, but I overheard my father quarreling with the eldest lady and knew that she was actually gone."

When the emperor heard this, his face changed, "As far as I know, Nanyuan is now in power with a female emperor, and her daughter can be called a princess, that is to say, if the person in this portrait is Qianfan, then the one who gave birth to Qianfan in your family back then is the current Nanyuan empress." ”

Bai Changjian shook slightly, "Now that I think about it, Qianfan's mother was not only a stunning beauty, but also a little extravagant. ”

The emperor narrowed his eyes, "I don't care who Qianfan's maiden family is, she is married to me, she is my person, no matter what, I have to find out in person." ”

Bai Changjian hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the ministers will also go." ”

"No, you stay. During the time I left, the tiger talisman was handed over to you for safekeeping, and if there was any trouble, I would only ask when I came back. ”

Bai Qianjian was taken aback, "Your Majesty ......"

The emperor glanced at him, "Although you have always regarded me as an opponent, but I treat you as an in-law, even if Qianfan is not your own sister, after all, she has called you the eldest brother for so many years, she believes in you, and I believe in you." ”

When Bai Changjian came, he filled his stomach with words, but he couldn't say a word at this time, and the emperor suddenly came to this hand, which caught him off guard.

"And Lin'er, he should call you uncle, and I will also entrust you to take care of it, this child has suffered a lot outside, you must let him be safe, can you do it?"

Bai Changjian felt that his chest was a little blocked, as if he had just removed a big stone in his heart, and this time he pressed something heavier, he stood up, bowed to the emperor, and said solemnly, "Minister, you can do it." ”
