In this life, he and Nan Zhiyun have a child together, so the child from their previous life... naturally won't appear again. Actually, many times, Yu Jingchen always felt that the child from their previous life was actually their child, but saying that was just too absurd.
"Has there been any new development in the matter between Luo Yuncheng and Yu Jiangyan?" Yu Jingchen always felt that there was more to the story than met the eye.
"It seems that the two of them have never met. Liu Yi has been the one relaying messages, but it looks like he doesn't know anything about their relationship." Xinglai felt that Liu Yi was quite pitiful, being used by these two like this, and it might even implicate the entire Liu State Duke's Mansion later.
"What about the others?" Yu Jingchen continued to ask.
“There’s one more thing, Your Majesty. I’ve already had someone look up the image of that token from the Miaoyin Pavilion that we mentioned before, and have drawn it out. And… Your Majesty, this token is indeed currently with the Empress.” Xinglai said, then handed the image of the token to Yu Jingchen.
Yu Jingchen frowned and took the design of the token. Upon seeing it, it was clear that Yu Jingchen recognized it as well; moreover, this token was still kept by Nan Zhiyun.
It was left to her by Nan Su, who said it was left to her by Nan Zhiyun's mother. So this is the token of Miao Yinge? (See Chapter 368)
"In addition, it seems that General Nan Su has some dealings with Jiang Ji." Xing Lai glanced at Yu Jingchen's expression as he said this. He hadn't understood why Yu Jingchen cared so much about a servant before, but now it seemed... he was really not simple.
Yu Jingchen really hadn't guessed this. What kind of deal could Nan Su and Jiang Ji possibly make?
"Has Jiang Ji's background been found out?" Yu Jingchen changed the subject.
"It's been too long, it would be quite difficult to investigate." Fortunately, he had already sent people to investigate, but they hadn't found any information at all, as if it had been deliberately erased. Moreover, Jiang Ji's background... seems to be more than that.
"Investigate quickly. Find out everything about Jiang Ji, down to the last detail," Yu Jingchen said. After all, this was someone he wanted to cultivate for Nan Zhiyun... or rather, for the sake of the child in Nan Zhiyun's womb...
"Yes," Xinglai agreed.
"Alright, you can leave now." Yu Jingchen still needed to check on Nan Zhiyun; she had slept all day and was now wide awake.
"Not planning to sleep tonight?" Yu Jingchen asked, sitting down next to her.
"I can't sleep." Nan Zhiyun leaned into Yu Jingchen's arms and hugged him.
"Then what should we do?" Yu Jingchen asked her.
"Your Majesty, would you like to tell me a story? Baby wants to hear it." Nan Zhiyun even shifted the blame to the child in her belly.
"Okay, what kind of story does Yun'er want to hear?" Yu Jingchen asked her, as if he had noticed that Nan Zhiyun was particularly interested in these kinds of things.
"Hmm... I want to hear the story of the little fox demon who bewitched the king and gained his exclusive favor." Nan Zhiyun thought of a story.
Yu Jingchen: "..." How was he supposed to make this up? Was it going to be another story about a fox spirit seducing a king? How dare this little girl do that?
"What am I supposed to do about this?" Yu Jingchen asked her in return.
“His Majesty told me to say it myself, so I must listen to this.” Nan Zhiyun was “unreasonable.”
Yu Jingchen: "..." He realized that Nan Zhiyun was deliberately teasing him.
