Chapter 88: Disloyalty



When Prince Xiang learned that Gu Yanyue had given birth to a little princess, he hurried into the palace.

Long before this, King Xiang had sent someone to make a pair of royal locks specifically for the purpose of celebrating this great event.

When he arrived at the bedroom, King Xiang saw Gu Yanyue, Yuwen Ran and the child in her arms having a great time.

He smiled softly, and walked forward slowly, "Your Majesty, I greet the Emperor, and the Empress."

King Xiang first bowed slightly, his brows full of respect and composure.

Yuwen Ran was extremely happy and did not mind these things. He simply waved his hand and signaled King Xiang to stand up without being polite.

At this time, Prince Xiang handed over an exquisite wooden box and said, "Your Majesty, I knew that the Empress was pregnant, so I specially asked someone to make a pair of royal locks. Today, I brought them here specially, just to give them to the little princess as a gift for her birth."

It is indeed not easy for King Xiang to have such thoughts.

Yuwen Ran nodded slowly and took the wooden box.

Wang Suo was very exquisitely crafted, and Gu Yanyue liked it when she saw it.

"Thank you very much, Your Highness."

Gu Yanyue spoke softly, but she had no strength in her body.

At the same time, Yuwen Ran carefully reached out his hand to help Gu Yanyue lie down, "Ayue, you are weak now, you also need to rest well."

Hearing this, Gu Yanyue nodded slightly and did not force anything.

After learning about the current situation, King Xiang left as soon as possible to avoid disturbing the two of them.

Not long after Prince Xiang left, Yuwen Ran handed a royal lock to Little Yuntun to play with. Seeing Yuwen Ran teasing the child, Gu Yanyue couldn't help but laugh, "Your Majesty, how come you have become so childish?"

Having said that, Gu Yanyue could also understand the joy in Yu Wenran's heart.

Unexpectedly, little Yuntun touched the king lock twice and suddenly started crying.

It was Gu Yanyue’s first time being a mother and she was completely at a loss, and the same was true for Yuwen Ran.

Instead, Qin Ruoruo, who was standing by, kindly reminded her, "Yanyue, the little princess must be hungry."

After saying that, Qin Ruoruo took two steps back, choosing to avoid the scene of Gu Yanyue feeding little Yuntun.

Inadvertently, the king lock in Xiao Yuntun's hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

Then the king's lock broke.

When seeing this scene, Gu Yanyue frowned, and her small face, which was the size of a palm, was full of complexity.

She first carefully fed little Yuntun milk, coaxed the child to sleep with soft words, and then got up to carefully pick up the broken Wangsuo.

The king lock is not as exquisite as it appears.

On the contrary, the quality inside is very poor.

Even the chain core is broken.

Gu Yanyue knew that in the southwest area where King Xiang had trained, broken locks undoubtedly symbolized bad luck.

No matter what, Xiao Yuntun was just a newborn baby, but it was King Xiang who cursed Xiao Yuntun in this way from the beginning.

Thinking of these things, Gu Yanyue felt angry.

It was for this reason that Gu Yanyue realized that King Xiang was not as simple as he seemed on the surface. It could even be said that King Xiang had ulterior motives from the very beginning.

In order to prevent this from happening again, Gu Yanyue secretly told him about this.

Yuwen Ran was indeed a little surprised when he first learned about this, but considering the way King Xiang had pretended to be a pig and ate the tiger, Yuwen Ran's face was gloomy, but he still said seriously: "Ayue, let me handle this matter, you don't have to be angry."

Later, Yuwen Ran sent the best locksmith in the palace to make a pair of identical royal locks, both of the best quality.

At the same time, Yuwen Ran secretly began to be wary of Prince Xiang.

During this period of time, Gu Yanyue needs to recuperate after giving birth, so her body is inevitably weak.

Seeing Gu Yanyue's face turn slightly pale, Yuwen Ran felt distressed. He simply suggested to Gu Yanyue: "Ayue, why don't you prepare some recipes for me and I'll make chicken soup for you."

Yu Wenran made chicken soup for her?

When hearing this, Gu Yanyue was extremely surprised.

After all, no matter what, Gu Yanyue was very clear about Yu Wenran's identity.

How could someone of Yuwen Ran's noble status, who had everything provided for him, do such a thing?

Gu Yanyue shook her head gently and couldn't help but smile and said, "Your Majesty, there is no need to force yourself."

Even so, Yuwen Ran never relaxed, "Ayue, just trust me."

Seeing Yu Wenran's face full of confidence, Gu Yanyue couldn't refuse him cruelly.

She handed the prepared recipe to Yuwen Ran, and then saw Yuwen Ran hurried away.

It was estimated that about an hour later, Yuwen Ran came back with chicken soup.

"Ayue, come and try this chicken soup. How does it taste?"

The chicken soup is indeed delicious, and I think Yu Wenran must have put a lot of thought into it.

But on the surface, Gu Yanyue pretended to look at Yuwen Ran with disdain, "Your Majesty, the chicken soup you made..."

Yu Wenran showed a bit of embarrassment on his face, and he continued, "Ayue, you know me. This is my first time making chicken soup. If there's anything I didn't do well, please tell me so I can correct it in the future."

Seeing Yu Wenran so sincere, Gu Yanyue couldn't help but smile, and didn't despise him anymore.

Gu Yanyue was very touched that Yu Wenran could do so much for her.

After drinking the chicken soup, Gu Yanyue felt warm in her stomach.

She had just been helped by Yuwen Ran to sit down on the couch when she heard a sharp sound suddenly coming from outside the hall.

"The Queen Mother has arrived—"

Everything that should have come and shouldn’t have come has come today.

Seeing Gu Yanyue frowning slightly, Yu Wenran reached out and rubbed her head without thinking, his brows full of tenderness, "Ayue, you don't have to be afraid, I'm here for everything."

Gu Yanyue has always known how good Yu Wenran was to her.

So at this moment, Gu Yanyue slowly breathed a sigh of relief, "I understand."

When the Queen Mother came today, she brought her adopted daughter Shangguan Yi with her.

"Queen, I heard you gave birth to a little princess, so I brought Yi'er here to see you."

Gu Yanyue was not feeling well, and because Yu Wenran was present, she did not stand up to salute.

"Your Majesty, I am not feeling well and cannot pay my respects to you."

No matter how much Gu Yanyue disliked the Queen Mother, she still had to say what she wanted to say, so as to avoid being seen by someone and falsely accusing her of being disrespectful to the Queen Mother.
