"Why didn't you ask about it earlier or later, but now, after the matter between Prince Ning and Chen Chan'er is over, you have to ask about it.
Could it be that someone has told the Emperor about Miss Yu?"
"Madam, regarding Miss Yu's matter, we were only helping her investigate her background, and we didn't do anything bad.
If someone really wants to make trouble for Miss Yu, what can we do? "
King Kang couldn't figure this out for a while.
"Your Highness, Miss Yu's appearance is clearly that of a foreigner. As you know, the relationship between our Fufeng Kingdom and foreigners has never been very good."
The secret guard on the side said.
The secret guard's words served as a reminder to Prince Kang and Ye Peizhu.
The couple's hearts trembled when they heard this.
"Gentiles..."
Ye Peizhu murmured, "Your Majesty, I may have guessed it."
Prince Kang looked at Ye Peizhu and pursed his lips. "Madam, you speak first."
"Your Highness, if someone is spreading rumors, the fact that Miss Yu, a foreigner, is living in your residence will arouse everyone's suspicions.
The royal family is averse to colluding with foreigners."
When Ye Peizhu said this, King Kang also guessed it.
His face darkened a bit, "It seems that someone has indeed told Father something, Madam, Miss Yu's matter can't be delayed any longer.
Since we can't investigate her background clearly, we can't let her stay in the mansion any longer.
Having a foreigner living in the palace would indeed arouse suspicion among those who did not know the truth.
Madam, why don't we send Miss Yu away first?"
But Ye Peizhu shook her head, "Your Highness, if the person investigating Miss Yu is indeed the Emperor, then if we send Miss Yu away right away, it will seem to the Emperor that we are guilty.
I think it would be better to tell His Majesty about Miss Yu’s existence first and ask His Majesty to help investigate Miss Yu’s background.
By taking the lead, we can prove that we have not done anything bad and we have no guilty conscience.
What do you think, Your Majesty?"
Prince Kang thought about it and agreed, "Let's do it this way. Tomorrow I will report Miss Yu's matter to the emperor. Let's see what he thinks."
The next day, Prince Kang came to the imperial study after leaving court.
"San'er, do you have something to tell me?"
There was a gleam of light in the old emperor's cloudy eyes.
"Father, I have something I would like to ask for your help."
"Oh? That's really rare. You actually need my help with something?
So tell me, what's the matter?"
The old emperor leaned back on the dragon throne, looking down at King Kang below.
King Kang then told the story of Yu Lingying.
"Father, I have been investigating Miss Yu's background for a while now, hoping to help her find her parents in the capital, but we haven't found any clues.
Now that a lot of time has passed, it is not appropriate for a young girl like Miss Yu to live in my residence all the time.
I would like to ask your Majesty for help to see if I can find out about Miss Yu's background. If your Majesty can't find out, I'm afraid Miss Yu's parents are not in the capital.
Then I can also truthfully convey this matter to my wife's grandmother and send Miss Yu back to Shu."
When the old emperor heard this, a flash of regret appeared in his cloudy eyes.
What a pity, King Kang was one step ahead of him.
Otherwise, the charge of colluding with foreigners would be enough to get King Kang into trouble.
"So that's what happened. Okay, I'll send someone to investigate Miss Yu's background.
It is indeed bad for the reputation of such a young girl to stay in your house without any status."
Prince Kang breathed a sigh of relief and bowed, "Thank you, Father. Father, Miss Yu's appearance is quite exotic. I suspect that one of her parents is a foreigner.
Using this as a clue, perhaps we can find out something."
King Kang mentioned the word "foreigners" openly without any guilt.
The old emperor squinted his eyes and looked at Prince Kang, then hummed after a while.
"I will give the order, just wait for the news."
"Yes, thank you, Father!"
Prince Kang felt a little relieved now. After returning home, he went to Qingzhuyuan and wanted to tell his wife about this.
As a result, he heard Yu Lingying's voice before he even entered the door.
Prince Kang went into the house and said, "Madam, it's quite lively here."
"Your Highness is back, Your Highness, Miss Yu came to see Jiuer, and I was just telling Miss Yu what we talked about last night.
Your Majesty, have you mentioned Miss Yu to the Emperor?
Ye Peizhu asked with a smile.
Prince Kang sat down next to Ye Peizhu and took the little girl from her arms.
"I told you that my father said he would send someone to investigate. His Majesty's secret guards are very knowledgeable and it won't take long for them to find out everything about Miss Yu's background."
"Your Majesty, Princess, I... I think you have found my mother."
Yu Lingying lowered her head and suddenly said this, which made King Kang and Ye Peizhu stunned.
Song Jiujiu was also confused.
[Found it? Did you find it yourself? When did you find it?]
"Miss Yu, when did you find your mother? Are you sure that is your mother?"
Ye Peizhu followed up and asked.
Yu Lingying nodded and then shook her head, "I saw her on the street a few days ago. When I saw her, I clearly felt something different, like a blood relative.
I don’t have that kind of feeling towards anyone else. I feel that woman is my mother.
But I only saw her once, and she left very quickly, and I didn't have time to go up to her and ask her.
I have tried to find her these past few days, but I can't find her."
Yu Lingying began to choke up as she spoke.
Ye Peizhu and Prince Kang looked at each other.
"Miss Yu, please describe the woman's appearance to us, and we will send someone to look for her."
Yu Lingying nodded, wiped her tears and began to speak.
Song Jiujiu stretched her little neck and listened for a while, then tilted her little head in some confusion.
[Why does this sound familiar? Is this someone we know?]
Ye Peizhu also felt that it sounded familiar. The most obvious feature of the woman described by Yu Lingying was her fox eyes and charming temperament.
But she thought about all the women she could think of but couldn't find any suitable one.
"Okay, we'll send someone to investigate first. You can also go out and look around these few days to see if you can run into her again."
Ye Peizhu patted Yu Lingying gently.
"Okay, thank you, Your Majesty and Princess."
Yu Lingying didn't stay long and got up and left.
The three members of King Kang's family were left staring at each other.
"Madam, I think the person Miss Yu is talking about should be someone we know, but the more I think about it, the more I can't figure out who this person is."
"I feel the same way, Your Majesty. Never mind. There's no rush for this matter. You never know when I might suddenly remember it.
Today you mentioned Miss Yu to the Emperor, did the Emperor mention anything else?"
