Xuanyuan Zhan reached out and caught Xinxiao. Xinxiao landed on Xuanyuan Zhan's arm and rubbed against him affectionately.
Upon seeing the letter tied to the owl, Xuan Yuanzhan immediately took it off.
When Xuanyuan Zhan opened the letter, his hand trembled uncontrollably.
He was really afraid of seeing bad news, especially after having that dream. He was terrified of opening the letter and finding something he couldn't bear!
Ye Yun seemed to notice Xuan Yuanzhan's nervousness and cautiously asked, "Your Highness, shall I take a look first?"
He's still quite curious about what kind of dream the prince had, which has frightened him so much that he doesn't even dare to read the letters from the prince's residence.
Xuanyuan Zhan ignored Ye Yun and carefully opened the letter with trembling hands.
After quickly reading the letter, Xuan Yuanzhan felt a sense of relief when he saw that Su Xuening had given birth safely.
At the same time, without realizing it, Xuan Yuanzhan's back was covered in cold sweat.
He then carefully read the letter many times, and only after confirming that Su Xuening had given birth safely did he breathe a sigh of relief and finally relax completely.
That's wonderful! Ning'er has given birth safely!
However, her mother's letter said that Ning'er had gone into premature labor, but fortunately, with the help of Ning'er's mother and the presence of several masters by her side, she was able to give birth safely.
My mother and Ning'er have been taken to the Western Liang Imperial Palace by the Vermilion Bird Divine Beast. Ning'er is currently in the Western Liang Imperial Palace to recuperate after childbirth.
Going to Xiliang is good, at least it's much safer than Dongchu!
Seeing the change in Xuan Yuanzhan's mental state, Ye Yun quickly asked, "Is the Princess alright?"
The Marquis just mentioned that the Prince had a nightmare, which seemed to be related to the Princess. The Princess should be alright now, otherwise the Prince wouldn't have relaxed so easily.
Xuanyuan Zhan nodded: "The princess is alright. She has given birth safely."
Ye Yun and Ye Feng were overjoyed upon hearing this: "Really? The Princess Consort has already given birth to a little prince?"
Xuanyuan Zhan smiled and nodded: "Yes, he is indeed a young prince!"
When Xuanyuan Zhan read the letter, he was not excited or happy because he had another child. He was just relieved that Ning'er was safe.
However, now that she has realized she has another child, she is naturally excited and happy.
He doesn't care whether it's a boy or a girl, as long as it's his and Ning'er's bloodline, he'll love them!
However, he was ultimately unable to be by Ning'er's side during her delivery; he broke his promise.
Xuanyuan Zhan thought for a moment, then sighed sadly.
Upon seeing this, Ye Yun frowned and said, "Isn't it a happy occasion that the Princess Consort has given birth to a young prince? Why are you sighing, Your Highness?"
Xuan Yuanzhan smiled bitterly: "I promised the princess that I would go back to be with her during childbirth, but in the end I couldn't. Instead, she suffered all the pain by herself."
The letter from her mother said that Ning'er had been imprisoned in the Cold Palace by Xuan Yuan Yu, but Ning'er cleverly came up with a way to save herself.
Both dreams involve the Cold Palace, and Ning'er did indeed have a premature and difficult birth, which suggests that his dream had some degree of reality.
Thinking of the extreme pain Ning'er suffered in his dream, Xuan Yuanzhan's heart ached so badly that he could hardly breathe!
He longs to hug her, kiss her, or even just look at her without doing anything else; he would be perfectly content with that.
But she's in Xiliang now. If things were alright in Dongchu, he would rush there immediately, no matter how far away it was. But now that he knows she's safe and sound, he can focus on things in Dongchu with peace of mind.
"Your Highness has given birth to a young prince; you should be happy. Is Your Highness still in the imperial prison? Are you going back to the capital?" Ye Yun was somewhat worried about his young prince.
Did the princess give birth to the young prince in the imperial prison?
Is the young prince also in the imperial prison at this moment?
This child, who is supposed to be born into great privilege, is now being forced to live in a prison.
And the princess gave birth in the imperial prison. I wonder if she will be able to have a proper postpartum period. No wonder the prince feels so sorry for her!
She was born into a delicate and noble family. If she were to give birth in the Holy Prince's residence, the Dowager Consort would have made all the arrangements. How could she bear to let the Princess suffer like that!
Xuanyuan Zhan shook his head: "No, the princess was rescued by her mother. She, the dowager princess, the young prince, Yun An, and several masters are all in the Western Liang Imperial Palace at the moment."
"The Western Liang Imperial Palace!" Ye Yun was instantly stunned, exclaiming in shock, "Is the Princess Consort's mother really the Empress of Western Liang?"
The prince had suspected this before and had even sent secret guards to Xiliang to investigate the matter.
However, the Empress of Western Liang was very mysterious, and there was no news of her disappearance or anything happening to her, so the secret guards did not find anything at the time!
"That should be true!" Xuan Yuanzhan said with a smile, "Now that Mother Consort and Ning'er are in Xiliang, they are safe, so we won't be returning to the capital!"
As he spoke, Xuanyuan Zhan turned his horse around and galloped back.
Ye Yun and Ye Feng exchanged a glance and then turned their horses around and went back.
Mu Lingchen, Bai Ying, and Ling Lang had just sat down and were about to drift off to sleep again when they heard the sound of horses' hooves once more.
The group opened their eyes at the same time and saw that Xuan Yuanzhan, who had just left in a hurry, had returned.
"Your Highness!" Bai Ying and Ling Lang couldn't help but stand up again.
Mu Lingchen was also confused by Xuan Yuanzhan's actions, so he got up as well.
Xuanyuan Zhan dismounted, and the others immediately surrounded him.
"What's wrong? Did you lose something?" Mu Lingchen asked, completely bewildered.
"My mother has replied to my letter." Xuan Yuanzhan smiled and waved the letter in his hand: "Ning'er gave birth to a son safely!"
"Really!" Mu Lingchen was overjoyed upon hearing this: "Isn't Cousin Ning'er not due to give birth yet? Isn't there still half a month left? How come she gave birth so soon?"
Xuan Yuanzhan said with some heartache, "She went into premature labor."
Mu Lingchen felt a pang of panic: "Is everything alright?"
"Mother and child are safe." Although Xuan Yuanzhan looked proud, his eyes were still full of heartache.
"Congratulations, Your Highness!" Bai Ying and Ling Lang congratulated Xuan Yuanzhan together.
Hearing their congratulatory voices, Xuanyuan Zhan finally felt a surge of excitement and joy at having a son.
Mu Lingchen didn't even have time to congratulate him; he quickly took Xuan Yuanzhan's letter and started reading it.
After reading the letter, Mu Lingchen was somewhat bewildered: "What's going on? Aunt Bai and Cousin Ning'er are both in the Western Liang Imperial Palace now?"
Bai Ying and Ling Lang also looked at Mu Lingchen with confusion.
He's wrong!
Is it in the Eastern Chu Imperial Palace?
How did they end up in the Western Liang Imperial Palace?
Xuan Yuanzhan nodded: "That's what Mother Consort said in her letter. After Mother Consort and Ning'er escaped from the Heavenly Prison, they were chased by Xuan Yuan Yu and Xuan Yuan Zhi with the Imperial Guard. They happened to run into Ning'er's mother, the Empress of Xiliang, who sent the Vermilion Bird Divine Beast to pick them up, so they simply went to Xiliang."
"Cough cough..." Mu Lingchen was quite shocked by Xuan Yuanzhan's words: "Cousin Ning'er's mother, the Empress of Western Liang? You mean my aunt is the Empress of Western Liang?!"
