Xu Wanqing's arrogant look made everyone present look at Princess Chenxiang with sympathy.
They had just seen that the emperor felt guilty and wanted to make amends to this relative who had come from afar. Now, Princess Chenxiang seemed to have lost the face of the host by doing this.
Princess Chenxiang was also taken aback when she heard Xu Wanqing's words. Then, she pretended to be calm and said, "Since you have evidence, show it to us all. After all, there are many people in the world who want to establish a relationship with the royal family."
Xu Wanqing also knew that Princess Chenxiang was embarrassing her.
Unfortunately, she won't let her have her wish.
Xu Wanqing looked at Princess Chenxiang whose eyes turned red with grievance, and then took out a brocade box from her wide sleeves.
Then, she walked to the side of the Ningguo monarch and whispered, "Uncle, my mother once said that when she was born, you gave her a pair of jade qilins..."
Before Xu Wanqing could finish her words, the Ningguo monarch nodded and said in a deep voice, "That's right, when my sister gave birth, I did give her a pair of jade qilins."
Princess Chenxiang's expression changed. She didn't expect that this bad woman really had evidence.
"Then, maybe you heard it?"
After hearing this, Xu Wanqing was about to cry and looked shaky.
Seeing this, Lu Mingxuan quickly stepped forward, embraced her, looked at Princess Chenxiang and said, "Princess, Wanqing is indeed General Su's granddaughter. If you don't believe me, you can send someone to Shangyuan to find out."
Then, he looked at Xu Wanqing with a distressed expression, "Wanqing suffered endless humiliation in Shangyuan. When she was a child, her stepmother abandoned her in a side courtyard for more than ten years and ignored her. It wasn't until she married me that she could live a normal life. When she learned that she was the granddaughter of Princess Ningguo, she ignored the hardships of her pregnancy and came here through untold hardships. She thought..."
He shook his head, his eyes reddened. "Although we have had a difficult life, as Wanqing's husband, seeing her like this, I, I feel really bad."
Everyone looked at the couple with red eyes and sighed.
Especially after Lu Mingxuan's reminder, they noticed Xu Wanqing's slightly bulging belly, and then they realized how bad their thoughts just now were.
"What a joke! Just because you say a few random words, do you think we should acknowledge you?"
Princess Chenxiang still refused to accept.
"Uncle, how about we go back to Shangyuan? We can't let the princess feel bad."
After saying this, Xu Wanqing pulled Lu Mingxuan and was about to kneel down.
Unexpectedly, the Ningguo King grabbed her hand and said gently, "You can live here. I promise that no one will bully you."
These words made everyone present gasp. It seemed that Princess Chenxiang had offended the emperor today.
Sure enough, when Prince Ning looked up at Princess Chenxiang, she was so frightened that she couldn't stand still.
"Chenxiang, nonsense! After all, she is your sister, why can't you tolerate her?"
"Father, Father, Chenxiang is still young and she said something wrong. Please forgive me, Father!"
Kneeling down were the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, who were reluctant to see their daughter being punished.
The Ningguo monarch snorted coldly, "You two should stop being busy with irrelevant things all day and delaying your children's education."
"Yes! Father, I will teach her a lesson when I get back!"
The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess' apology stopped the King of Ningguo from saying anything else.
A hint of pride flashed in Xu Wanqing's eyes, but when she saw that Princess Chenxiang was not punished, she also felt a little unhappy.
"Uncle, this is the Jade Qilin. I'll open it and show it to you."
Then, Xu Wanqing happily opened the brocade box.
The King of Ningguo frowned the moment he saw the Jade Unicorn, but then he picked up the Jade Unicorn and smiled.
When Xu Wanqing saw the smile on his face, she knew she had got the right one, and she felt happy.
"Did your grandmother give this to you?"
Xu Wanqing smiled and nodded, "Mother said that this was the dowry given to her by her grandmother."
The Ningguo monarch frowned slightly, then laughed, "Hahaha, okay, okay, Wanqing, I'll keep this Jade Qilin with me. I'll give it to you in two days, okay?"
Xu Wanqing was a little confused. She looked at Yu Qilin and then at Lu Mingxuan.
"Wanqing, give this to my imperial sister. Your grandmother has had it for nearly forty years. I want to take a good look at it."
"Yes, Wanqing, the emperor is now thinking of you when he sees something. He can't bear to leave your grandmother and mother!"
The Queen's words dispelled Xu Wanqing's doubts, and she smiled and said, "Grandpa Uncle, take this and have a look. If my grandmother and mother knew about this, they would surely be very touched and would bless you."
"Okay, okay, go sit down!"
Xu Wanqing took Lu Mingxuan to sit down. Everyone surrounded them and asked about their well-being, which made them very proud.
For a time, he was the talk of the town.
In the distance, the prince and his family frowned and watched all this with gloomy eyes.
Especially Princess Chenxiang, her eyes were almost spitting fire.
After the welcoming banquet ended, Xu Wanqing felt like jumping while walking.
"Wanqing, you have to think about the child, but please don't hurt the child."
"Hehehe, Mingxuan, I'm so happy, we are going to succeed."
Hearing this, Lu Mingxuan was also very excited. He held Xu Wanqing's hand and said happily: "Yes, we are going to succeed, Wanqing, you are awesome!"
"Of course. Don't you see who I am? Nothing I set my mind to will fail. Just wait, we have many good days ahead of us."
"good!"
The two walked away happily, and then a man came out from the bushes and ran in the opposite direction.
"How about it?"
"To answer the princess, those two were overjoyed and very proud along the way."
"Bitch! Bitch, this princess will never let her have an easy time."
Afterwards, Chenxiang looked at the guards with a gloomy face and whispered, "From today on, you will keep an eye on them for me. If there is any movement, you must tell me immediately."
"yes!"
After the guards left, Chenxiang was so angry that he knocked over the things on the table.
She must avenge the punishment she received today.
Ambergris Palace
The King of Ningguo looked at Yu Qilin without saying a word.
"Your Majesty, is there something wrong with this? You've been staring at this since the banquet ended?"
The queen was puzzled. The expression on the emperor's face seemed not to be one of nostalgia, but more of anger.
The Ningguo monarch sighed and pointed at the Jade Unicorn, saying, "This is fake."
"What? Fake?"
The Queen couldn't believe it.
Then, she asked in surprise: "Could it be that those two people are really fake?"
The Ningguo monarch wanted to shake his head. "Whether these two are real or fake is still unclear. I have already sent spies to Shangyuan to investigate. I believe there will be results soon."
"So, what should we do with these two? Should we detain them first?"
"Wait a minute, don't alert them. If they're pretending to be me, this is a good opportunity to see what their purpose is."
