Chapter 74 Bah, bad guy, An An doesn't want it

The day to pay respects finally arrived.

Looking at the familiar tea and gazing at the queen sitting at the top, Concubine Li drank it as usual.

The queen looked at all the concubines with satisfaction and said with a smile: "This is the new tea given by the emperor. How about you try it?"

There followed a series of courtesies and compliments, with the queen grinning gently.

"Hey, didn't they say that a Princess Yong'an came from the Dayan Dynasty? Why haven't we met her yet?" A concubine who had just entered the palace and didn't know the rules asked.

The queen immediately restrained her expression, and couldn't help but feel a little resentful towards the emperor in her heart: he only knew how to sleep with other women all day long, and the Dayan Dynasty was strong, so he had to be pacified as soon as possible.

"I will remind His Majesty that when distinguished guests arrive, we must choose a good day to welcome them."

Concubine Li found the Queen's hypocritical words funny and quietly stroked her belly: Baby, you must grow up safely.

I wanted to keep it a secret for longer, but the accident still happened.

On this day, Concubine Li was strolling in the Imperial Garden when she accidentally fell. Her face turned pale with pain and she covered her lower abdomen. The sachet containing the little doctor's hair fell onto her lower abdomen, and the pain immediately subsided a lot.

It was a time of chaos and the servants were ignorant, so they went straight to ask for the imperial physician. It turned out that she was pregnant!

Emperor Mu Zhen was very happy and immediately rewarded Concubine Li with a large number of things. Many people who were on good terms with Concubine Li were very happy and even secretly asked about how she got pregnant.

Concubine Li didn't want to cause trouble for the young doctor, so she only secretly gave the prescription to one or two concubines she was on good terms with. Whether she could get pregnant or not was another matter, but at least she could help her recuperate.

In the entire palace, only the Queen was gnashing her teeth in hatred.

After inquiring for a long time, the Queen set her sights on Princess Yong'an. A servant said that she seemed to have seen the figure of Concubine Li go to Princess Yong'an's residence.

It is better to kill someone by mistake than to let him go. If this is true, then Princess Yong'an's medical skills must be extraordinary. If I can use them for my own benefit, then I can rest assured in this palace.

The queen had a very beautiful thought in mind, so she urged the Emperor of Yu to quickly hold a welcoming ceremony for Princess Yong'an.

Emperor Mu Zhen was in high spirits because of the happy event, so he agreed without a hesitation and asked to bring Concubine Li to take care of the family personally.

The Queen naturally agreed on the surface, but she was thinking in her heart that sooner or later she would kill Concubine Li's baby!

The banquet was scheduled for the evening. When the little girl heard that the emperor was going to host a welcoming party for her, she exclaimed, "Wow, the emperor has remembered this?"

But, as long as there is something delicious, it’s fine! An An touched her belly happily.

Chu Huai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This little dumpling was really adorable.

As night fell, several people went to the banquet as scheduled.

"You distinguished guests have come from far away, and we are sorry for being neglectful. Today we will welcome you!" Emperor Mu Zhen simply said a few polite words.

Gu Mingshan dealt with it.

As for An An, the little dumpling was busy eating pastries!

The queen looked at An An who was busy chewing cakes, and felt disdain in her heart: Ha, such a not presentable thing cannot compare to my Jin Xia.

"Ahem, Princess Yong'an, is the food to your liking?" The queen cleared her throat and spoke lightly.

The little dumpling raised her head, and the queen, who had been dignified before, stood up suddenly.

"You, you..." Staring at An An's face!

Emperor Mu Zhen on the side also stopped smiling and stared at An An's face without blinking.

"Huh? Mom, what's wrong?" The little dumpling was so focused on eating that he couldn't think of anything else.

Gu Yi sighed. This day was bound to come. He explained softly, "An An, the Queen up there might be your biological mother."

The little dumpling stared at the almost dazed queen and curled his lips: Bad guy, bah, you have so much blood on your hands, An An doesn't want it!

"An An only wants mommy!" The little dumpling stretched out his greasy little hands and asked for a hug.

Gu Yi looked disgusted, but he carefully wiped the little Tuanzi's greasy paws clean and held him in his arms.

"Sir Gu, Princess Yong'an is the biological child of your Gu family?" Emperor Mu Zhen asked in a deep voice, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.

Gu Mingshan looked at the Emperor and Empress of the Yu Kingdom and understood about 80% of the situation. However, neither of them seemed like good people, so Gu Mingshan naturally didn't want to admit it: "Of course, An An is the apple of my Gu family's eye."

"Really?" Emperor Mu Zhen stared at An An's face for a long time, his tone indifferent.

During the meal, except for An An who had a full belly, the rest of the people had no appetite.

After the dinner, Emperor Mu Zhen immediately sent people to investigate Princess Yong'an's background.

The Queen stood aside and whispered, "Your Majesty, I am afraid that Princess Yong'an is our child..."

That face was exactly like mine.

But why did his child become Princess Yong'an of the Dayan Dynasty?

Then what about my own Jinxia?

Emperor Mu Zhen obviously thought of it as well.

Jinxia was his and the queen's child. When she was born, the flood that had plagued the palace for many days had just stopped. The sky was filled with bright clouds and cranes circled the palace for three days.

The emperor was very happy and thought it was an auspicious sign from heaven, so he gave the princess the title Jinxia as soon as she was born.

"Where is Jinxia?" asked Emperor Mu Zhen.

"She's at the Taoist temple. She said she wanted to go see the Taoist priest!" Thinking of Jinxia's well-behaved appearance, the queen smiled.

Thinking of Taoist Xuanzhi, Mu Zhen's frown relaxed.

The Taoist priest protected the peace of the Yu Kingdom, and Jinxia even had her fortune predicted by the Taoist priest, saying that it was invaluable and could ensure the peace of the Yu Kingdom for a hundred years.

"Forget it, forget it. Even if it is our child, how can it compare to Jinxia?" Emperor Mu Zhen said impatiently.

"Just feed her with good food and drink. It's not like I can't afford to support her. Just treat her like an extra daughter."

The Queen also agreed: "Look at her unruly appearance. I don't like her either. After all, she is not raised by my side, so naturally she cannot compare to Jinxia."

Over there, An An was nestling comfortably in Gu Yi's arms, snoring.

Looking at the little guy's cute sleeping face, Gu Yi sighed: "Alas, I don't know what will happen."

"Mother~ um, An An," the little girl was talking in her sleep, "An An wants this..."

Scratching his nose, Gu Yi smiled: You little greedy cat, you still think about eating even in your dreams.

No matter what, Gu Yi was determined to bring An An home.

At this time, Jinxia sneezed at Baiyun Temple, and the maid immediately stepped forward and asked: "Princess, have you caught a cold?"

Jinxia waved her hands and looked towards the direction of the imperial palace. Somehow, she suddenly felt a little uneasy.

It seems like something is about to happen.

"I want to go back to see my father and mother." Jinxia rubbed her eyes, her eyes red.

The maid smiled and put a coat on Jinxia: "The princess is still young, the emperor and the queen are probably thinking about her too!"

Thinking of her father and mother, Jinxia smiled a little.
