Chapter 204: Could it be that Gu Yan will not give birth?
Yu Xihe saw Zhao Yun sitting there and accepting the greetings from her father without any awkwardness, as if he was born accustomed to being worshipped by others. She couldn't help but feel curious about Zhao Yun's true identity.
After finishing the meal, Yu Xihe followed Zhao Yun back to the room prepared for him. "What was your original name? I can't keep calling you a mute slave, can I?"
Zhao Yun wrote down two words: "Wei Yun."
Yu Xihe saw that the word "珵" was exactly the same as the word "珵" in the letter from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The current Queen's surname was Wei, and the late Crown Prince's name was Zhao Yun...
As someone close to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, how could he dare to call him Wei Yun, unless he was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...
Yu Xihe felt that she was overthinking.
How could Wei Yun be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? How could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince be reduced to a slave when he was already dead?
Yu Xihe returned to her room with doubts.
Yu Wenlong approached Yu Xihe and said, "Sister."
"Brother."
Yu Wenlong said to Yu Xihe, "I remember now. When I went to Chang'an to attend the funeral, I saw the portrait of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Just now, I saw that mute servant and he looked familiar. Now that I think about it carefully, he is very similar to the portrait of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Yu Xihe said: "I also suspect that he is the Crown Prince, but the Crown Prince is already dead, so why is he here?"
Yu Wenlong said: "No matter what, we have to send him back to Chang'an first. Sister, if he is really the Crown Prince, your future will be limitless. You spend a night with him and send him back to Chang'an. Maybe he will give you a status in the backyard of the East Palace..."
Yu Xihe lowered her head and said shyly, "Brother."
Yu Wenlong smiled gently and said, "I heard in Chang'an that the current Crown Princess is said to be the daughter of the Wei family. In fact, many people are secretly saying that she was once a maidservant by His Highness' side and was of humble origin... If you can enter the East Palace, your origin must be more noble than that of the Crown Princess..."
Yu Xihe whispered, "Brother, what nonsense are you talking about? I am only grateful to him for saving me. I have no other thoughts. Besides, his identity is just our speculation. He may not be the Crown Prince."
Yu Wenlong just smiled and said, "The handwriting and the portrait all match, how could it not be? Our family is about to become rich and powerful."
Yu Xihe was not as happy as Yu Wenlong. She was a little worried and said, "If not, then we helped him return to Chang'an and pretended to be someone close to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. That would be a huge sin."
Yu Wenlong said, "When the time comes, go find the girl from the Ye family who you are on good terms with and ask her. Her cousin Yun Xiangye is now the Prince Consort of Prince Ning. The Prince Consort of Prince Ning must know His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Yu Xihe nodded: "That's good too."

Inside the East Palace.
Ye Wanhe was confined to the Eastern Palace and was not allowed to step out of it. To her, this punishment did not seem like a punishment at all. After all, she had been trapped in the Eastern Palace for the past ten years.
"elder sister."
Seeing Yun Xiangye coming in from outside, Ye Wanhe said, "I am a criminal now, so you'd better not get too close to me."
Yun Xiangye said with a guilty look on his face: "If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been discovered. I came here today to tell you something."
Ye Wanhe dismissed the servants on both sides.
Just then, little Yu'er started to make a noise, so Ye Wanhe held Yu'er in her arms and coaxed him. She turned around and fed little Yu'er with her breast.
Yun Xiangye smiled at Ye Wanhe and said, "Sister, are you actually the emperor's grandson who was breastfed?"
Ye Wanhe said: "Well, at first it was the wet nurse who fed Yu'er, then I tried to feed Yu'er, and Yu'er got used to me feeding him."
Yun Xiangye said, "Since you are going to feed the little grandson, I don't have to worry about your life for the time being. I came to find you today because I wanted you to prepare for faking your death. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been found."
Ye Wanhe was stunned for a moment. She turned her head and looked up at Yun Xiangye. "Did you find it so quickly? With such a vast sea of people and such a large territory, I thought it would take two or three years to find it."
Yun Xiangye said: "Found it. It's really a coincidence that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was bought by Chen Qing and became her family's slave."
Ye Wanhe frowned slightly, "Why is it Chen Qing? It's better not to implicate her."
Yun Xiangye said: "Ignorance is not a crime. Chen Qing doesn't know about this matter, so I don't think he will be implicated."
After Ye Wanhe finished feeding Yu'er, she looked down at Yu'er in her arms, sighed deeply and said, "It'll only be a month at most since you returned from Yongxing City, right?"
Ye Wanhe gently stroked Yu'er's little face, but she was reluctant to give Yu'er the fake death drug.
Although it is said that the fake death drug will not harm the body, but after all, the drug is three-point poison, and Yu'er is still so young...
Ye Wanhe looked at Yun Xiangye and whispered, "Xiangye, I am not sure I can fake my death with Yu'er now. I can only save my life and leave the palace first. If I can't take my Yu'er out of the palace, I hope you can... help take care of him. After all, he is his biological son, and he will be spared. I may have to find another opportunity to take Yu'er out of the palace."
Yun Xiangye nodded and said, "Well, sister, don't worry, I will treat Yu'er as my own."
After Yun Xiangye finished speaking, she walked out of the East Palace. It was another beautiful spring day in February, with the east wind blowing and the grass growing and the orioles flying.
When Yun Xiangye returned to Qingfeng Courtyard, she saw Nuonuo and Jingru flying kites together, both of them were smiling happily.
Gu Jingyu walked to Yun Xiangye's side and said, "Sister-in-law, do you want to play kite with me?"
Yun Xiangye shook her head and said, "I don't want to play anymore. I'll have to trouble you to help play with Nuonuo."
"Sister-in-law, you are too polite. Nuonuo is my niece. How can I say that she has done me any favors? Besides, Nuonuo is much cuter and more obedient than Jingru..."
Xiao Jingru snorted and said, "I don't like my sister anymore."
Gu Jingyu said: "I don't like you anymore either."
Xiao Jingru looked like she was about to cry, so Gu Jingyu had to compromise and said, "Don't cry, don't cry. Sister likes you the most, so don't cry."
Little Jingru threw herself into Gu Jingyu's arms, crying and shouting, "Sister, I like you, please don't dislike me."
"Okay, okay, I like Jingru the best."
Seeing how affectionate the two sisters were, Yun Xiangye smiled gently, thinking that it would be nice to give Nuonuo a younger sister.
It’s a pity that Nuonuo’s wishes have always been unfulfilled.
Yun Xiangye placed her hand on her lower abdomen. After reconciling with Gu Yan, they had been quite close to each other, but there was no such thing as Nuonuo's younger sister.
For a moment, Yun Xiangye didn't know whether there was something wrong with Gu Yan or with her.
Gu Jingyu looked at Yun Xiangye's hand on her belly and smiled softly, "Sister-in-law, are you pregnant?"
Yun Xiangye shook her head and said, "No, I'm just looking forward to getting pregnant. After all, I promised Nuonuo that I would give her a little sister."
Originally, I thought Xie Shian and Fu Qianran might give Nuonuo a cousin, but a little cousin was born a few days ago.
Nuonuo's wish to have a younger sister was dashed again.
After feeling Yun Xiangye's pulse, Gu Jingyu said, "Sister-in-law, your pulse is normal now. Pregnancy depends entirely on fate, so just relax."
Yun Xiangye whispered, "Since my pulse is fine, could it be that Gu Yan...he can't give birth?"
Yun Xiangye felt that it was inappropriate to talk about this with Gu Jingyu, an unmarried girl, so she coughed and said, "It shouldn't be the case."
Gu Jingyu said: "I'll check my brother's pulse and then I'll know."
