"Your Majesty, their uncle and nephew have been recorded in the imperial genealogy. It's getting late, so I will return to the palace first."
Upon hearing this, Su Xingyi helped Xiao Lingyu up, took the two children and followed the old wise king and Xiao Tianci out.
"Wait, Yi." Emperor Qianyuan said, "The princess is in poor health now. It's still a long way from the palace to the Duke of Huguo's residence. Now that you're back, the palace is your home. Father has arranged for people to clean up the East Palace. You, your family of four, will stay there tonight."
Xiao Tianci was delighted, "Ayi, you can stay in the palace. This is your home."
Su Xingyi was a little unfamiliar with this house and was not used to it. "Grandfather, I am still too unfamiliar with the palace. I'd better go back to the Protectorate Mansion."
"This is your home, you'll get used to it once you move in. Also, my Yu'er is married to you, you can't let her live in her parents' home forever."
Su Xingyi thought about it and realized that he didn’t have a mansion in the capital, so he was just temporarily staying at his father-in-law’s house.
Now that we have returned to our roots and have our own big house, it is indeed not a good idea to go and live with our father-in-law.
"Xiao Yu, will you live with me in the East Palace today?"
Xiao Lingyu looked at Xiao Tianci, and Xiao Tianci quickly turned his head away.
My granddaughter will be the queen in the future, so she has to adapt to life in the palace from now on.
It is true that a married granddaughter is like spilled water. She can no longer live in her parents' home forever and can only go back and stay for a few days occasionally.
"Okay, today our family of four will stay in the East Palace."
"Dad and Mom, we are a family of six, missing my second and third brothers."
"Then bring them into the palace, and bring your mother in as well."
"Yu'er." Shangguan Lan quickly interrupted, "You are in poor health. Your grandmother will stay in the palace to take care of you."
Shangguan Jinnian: "Mother, I want to stay too."
Shangguan Lan glanced at Empress Dowager Du, whose veins were bulging with anger, and said, "Be obedient, go back to the Imperial West Garden with your eldest brother..."
Shangguan Lan was worried that Empress Dowager Du would do something strange, so she had to stay in the palace and keep an eye on her.
Shangguan Yu stood up, patted Emperor Qianyuan on the shoulder, and whispered in his ear, "Your Highness is leaving the palace. If Ayi and the others lose even a hair, you know the consequences."
Emperor Qianyuan's face darkened as he smiled and said, "Ayi is my son. You're overthinking it! Goodbye! I won't see you off!"

"Grandfather, you're back. Where are my parents?"
The Su brothers looked behind Xiao Tianci a few times, and Li Haiying's standard professional fake smile appeared in front of them.
"Master Wen, Master Jie, Your Highness the Princess, I, under the orders of His Highness Prince Shun, am here to take you to the East Palace."
East Palace?
Old Madam Xiao glanced at Xiao Tianci, and Xiao Tianci nodded.
Old Madam Xiao was delighted that the emperor had acknowledged Prince Shun as his son.
"Why do we have to go to the Eastern Palace instead of our parents going back to the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion?" Su Ningjie remembered that the princess's mother did not come back yesterday, and he couldn't help but feel anxious, worried that something had happened.
"Master Jie, Prince Shun asked me to take you to the East Palace to take you home."
"go home?!"
"Yes, Master Jie, Prince Shun is the emperor's eldest son, so the Eastern Palace is naturally Prince Shun's home, and it is also your home."
Su Ningjie was so shocked that he opened his mouth wide and couldn't speak for a long time.
Su Ningwen walked over calmly and took Su Ningjie's hand, "Let's go, we're going home."
"Oh, go home."
Su Ningwen pulled Su Ningjie out ten steps and ran to Baili Qingluan, "Aunt, let's go quickly. Big brother is waiting for you at home."
"Oh, okay."
"Second sister, let's go to the palace together."
Li Haiying saw more people but didn't dare to stop them.
Even the Emperor feared Prince Shun, and he couldn't afford to offend him.
Meng Yunqian pulled Meng Zilu, who was stunned in place, and said, "Dad, Brother Wen's adoptive father is the emperor's son. Did I hear it wrong?"
It took Meng Zilu a long time to come back to his senses. He picked up Meng Yunqian by the waist and left the Duke of Huguo's Mansion.
"Master Meng!" Xiao Tianci chased after him and shouted, "Why don't you stay for dinner before leaving?"
"No, I'll come back for dinner another day." Meng Zilu was now in a hurry to go back and tell the whole family the big news that Su Xingyi was the emperor's son!
Oh my god!
His own son actually recognized the emperor's son as his father.

"You said that Prince Shun is the emperor's son?" Meng Chen was in disbelief. She knew that Prince Shun's true identity was not simple, so simple.
"It's absolutely true. There's no mistake. The eunuch from the palace came to pick him up personally."
"The ministers will know tomorrow." Meng Gaoyang said calmly, as if he had already understood everything.
"Father-in-law, why aren't you surprised? Have you known this for a long time?"
Meng Gaoyang nodded, "I had guessed earlier, but I didn't expect that Prince Shun was really the emperor's eldest son."
"Dad, you kept it a secret really well." Meng Xuewen said.
Meng Gaoyang glanced at Meng Xuewen, then at Meng Zihe.
"The matter has not been confirmed, so we can't say anything careless. After the court meeting tomorrow, all the civil and military officials will know the true identity of Prince Shun. They will also know that Wen Ge'er is Prince Shun's adopted son and the eldest descendant of our Meng family. In the future, many people will keep an eye on our Meng family, and even officials who love monopoly will come to visit us. From now on, our Meng family must pay more attention to our words and deeds..."
Upon hearing this, Meng Chen looked at her eldest son. After tomorrow, there will definitely be many ladies from aristocratic families sending visiting cards, and there will definitely be people who want to marry into the Meng family.
His eldest son will have no worries about getting married, no! No worries about getting married!
"Second brother, Miss Lu Er has also come to Beijing."
"Where is she?"
Meng Zihe stood up excitedly, eager to see her immediately.
Meng Xuewen caught a glimpse of Meng Gaoyang out of the corner of his eye. He looked at him in disbelief and quickly sat down again.
