MTL - Rumor Has It That I’m Pregnant with His Highness’ Child-Chapter 517 the second time
Xiao Juan met the emperor after entering the palace.
The emperor's condition is better than the rumors. Although he is sick in bed and needs to be served by others, at least his mind is clear and his spirits look good.
He listened to Xiao Juan recount the whole story of his trip to Liangzhou from beginning to end, and the content was almost the same as what Wei Liao said.
The old emperor was sitting on the bed, speaking very slowly, with a sense of old age unique to the elderly.
"I didn't expect Niyang to do such a thing. She really disappointed me too much. Fortunately, you didn't go along with her. You are still a good boy and lived up to my expectations for you."
Xiao Lian said respectfully: "Loyalty to the monarch and patriotism is the duty of a small minister."
Old Emperor: "This time you have done a good job in pacifying the chaos. Tell me, what reward do you want?"
Xiao Juan: "Wei Chen wants a three-month vacation."
The old emperor was surprised.
"What are you doing with such a long vacation?"
Xiao Lian lowered his eyes and looked a little sad: "Although my mother made a big mistake, she is Wei Chen's mother after all. Wei Chen feels uncomfortable and wants to go out for a walk."
The old emperor sighed.
"It's all Niyang's fault. I'm so tired that you suffer along with it. I will let you rest for three months and relax."
Xiao Lian bowed to thank him: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward."
Old Emperor: "In addition, I will reward you with a thousand taels of gold and a hundred pieces of silk and satin."
Xiao Juan thanked him again.
Just saying these words, the old emperor was already tired.
Xiao Juan wisely said goodbye and left.
After he walked out of the palace, he did not go home directly, but took a detour to the inner servant.
The **** in charge of the inner waiter saw that King Lang was coming, and hurriedly knelt down and saluted.
"The slave and maid visited His Royal Highness, I don't know what is the matter of His Royal Highness's sudden presence?"
Xiao Juan took out the emerald bracelet wrapped in silk handkerchief from his sleeve and said solemnly.
"Help this king check the origin of this bracelet."
The **** in charge took the bracelet with both hands and looked at it carefully.
"This is indeed something in the palace, but it should be an old object from many years ago. How could it be in the hands of His Royal Highness?"
Xiao Juan said coldly, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
The **** in charge shrank his neck and did not dare to say more.
Although he is quite old, he has a really good memory, and he soon found the relevant records of jade bracelets from a lot of booklets.
"This bracelet came from Persia as a tribute fifty years ago, and was later given to Concubine Meng by Emperor Ren. Since then, this bracelet has not appeared again. The slave remembers that there is a pair of these bracelets. Why is there only one pair? One more left? And one more?"
Xiao Juan ignored the question from the **** in charge and asked in a deep voice.
"Where is Meng Taifei?"
The **** in charge stretched out a finger and pointed to the sky: "She has long since returned to the west. If she is still alive, she must be about a hundred years old now."
Xiao Juan asked again, "Does she have descendants?"
The **** in charge shook his head: "No, Concubine Meng is very good, and she is known for her good temper in the palace. It's a pity that she has no children, not even a princess."
Xiao Juan didn't ask any more, put away the jade bracelet, and warned at the same time.
"I don't want a third person to know what you said to this king just now."
The **** in charge hurriedly replied, "This servant understands."
He watched Prince Lang leave.
It was determined that the person had gone far, and the **** in charge immediately left the inner servant and hurried to find Wei Wynn.
He told Wei Wynn about Prince Lang's investigation of the jade bracelet.
Wei Wynn didn't understand: "Why does he want to check the origin of a bracelet?"
The **** in charge shook his head: "He didn't say it, the servants don't know."
Wei Wynn waved his hand and told the **** in charge to go down, and instead ordered someone to call Wei Liao over.
"Father called me, what did he tell me?"
Wei Huaien: "You went to Liangzhou with King Langjun. Have you ever seen a jade bracelet in his hand along the way?"
Wei Liao nodded without hesitation.
"I have seen."
Then he explained the process of discovering the jade bracelet, and finally said it.
"At that time, I wanted to see the bracelet, but Prince Lang refused to let him. I think he looked like that, and I must have discovered something unusual about the bracelet."
Wei Wynn thought thoughtfully: "how can there be something in the palace in the hands of the water bandit? What about the body of the water bandit? "
Wei Liao: "I was taken away by Prince Lang. I should be in the Justice Department at this time."
Wynn didn't ask anymore.
Because he knew that as long as the corpse entered the justice department, he would not be able to touch it again.
Wei Liao asked curiously, "Is that bracelet really something from the palace?"
Wei Huaien: "that's what Emperor Ren gave to Concubine Meng, but Concubine Meng has been dead for many years, how could her things appear in the hands of a water bandit? And Prince Lang, why did he do this to this matter? Mind? It's too weird, you have to keep an eye on it."
Wei Liao nodded in response.
"I will."
After talking about business, Wei Wynn slowed down and chatted with him about daily life.
"You have been out for a long time, and you have seen a lot of tanning. You have suffered a lot along the way, right?"
Wei Liao smiled casually: "It's okay, I think it's good to go out and learn more."
Wei Wynn: "I heard that there was a scandal between you and Princess Langjun. The relationship between you and her is unclear. Is this true?"
Wei Liao denied it without hesitation.
"No, those are rumors."
Wei Wynn stared at him: "If you say no, then it means no, but I still want to ask you, do you really have no idea about Yu Weiwei?"
Wei Liao pretended to be relaxed and smiled: "This is the second time you have asked me."
Wei Wynn: "Is your answer the same as last time?"
Wei Liao opened his mouth, wanting to say yes, but suddenly the bright and splendid smiling face of Yu curling appeared in his mind, and the words suddenly couldn't come out of his mouth.
He just stood there quietly, silent.
Wei Wynn frowned slightly.
"You should know that you are not the same as her."
Wei Liao remained silent.
Wei Wynn: "go back first, and I'll send you an errand tomorrow to let you leave Yujing for a while, and come back when you calm down."
"Here."
Wei Liao walked out of the palace alone after saying goodbye to his adoptive father.
There are high palace walls on both sides, and a flat and hard white marble floor below the feet.
He looked ahead, still recalling what his adoptive father had just said.
Father asked him what he thought of Yu Cui Cui?
He didn't think he could have any idea about Yu Weiwei.
At that moment, he was like a ghost, and he couldn't even say a word of denial.
Could it be that he really fell in love with Yu curling?
Impossible.
She is not the one he likes at all!
Something must have gone wrong!
Father is right, he needs to calm down.
Wei Liao clenched his fists and silently told himself that when he calmed down, he would know that it was impossible for him to have a good impression of Yu Weiwei.
