However, after her initial joy, Xiao Tao looked at the nanny and said, "Nanny, we actually already have a young master."
"Huh? Xiao Tao, what do you mean by that?"
"To be honest, the prince and princess already have a son."
"What? Xiao Tao, are you serious?"
"This servant would not dare to lie."
“That…no…that’s not right…that’s impossible, Xiao Tao, you must be careful what you say! Even though you are the Princess’s most beloved maid, if you dare to ruin the Princess’s reputation, I will still dare to punish you.”
"This servant wouldn't dare; this servant is only telling the truth."
"Hmm? Xiao Tao, this isn't right! I remember that on the day the princess married into the manor, she entered the cold courtyard without even a wedding ceremony, and the prince went to the border the very next morning, where he stayed for six years."
How could a princess and a prince possibly have a son?
Could it be…?
As Granny Hua spoke, she suddenly remembered that at the Duke's mansion earlier that day, Aunt Liu had said that Ye Qingcheng had already lost her innocence.
Thinking of this, she trembled and her face turned pale.
"Xiao Tao, did the Princess really lose her innocence before entering the manor?"
Xiao Tao nodded: "Yes! But..."
"Oh no, what are we going to do now?"
When Granny Hua saw Xiao Tao nod, she immediately stood up and shouted.
Xiao Tao frowned upon seeing this.
"Granny, what's wrong?"
"This...this...the princess lost her virginity before marriage, that's a huge taboo! If the prince finds out...no...no...I have to stop them right away."
As she spoke, Granny Hua trembled all over as she prepared to leave.
Xiao Tao quickly called out to her.
"Granny, please wait a moment, I haven't finished speaking yet."
"The young lady was given to the prince before the marriage."
Upon hearing this, Granny Hua stopped in her tracks, turned to look at Xiao Tao, and frowned deeply: "What did you say?"
"Granny, actually, Miss... no... the Princess and the Prince have already had physical intimacy."
"What? How is this possible?"
"Granny, you don't know, the Prince and Princess had relations the night before their wedding."
"The night before the wedding?"
"Yes! That's right. At the time, neither the princess nor the prince knew that they had spent the night with each other."
"This... Xiao Tao, are you serious?"
Granny Hua returned, her eyes filled with a stern look as she asked.
"This servant would not dare to lie."
"So, after that night, the princess was pregnant with a child?"
"That's right."
Whoosh!
After hearing this, Granny Hua gasped for breath and patted her chest a few times.
"Thank goodness, thank goodness, that scared me to death."
"Hehehe! Granny, it's like the Princess and the Prince were destined by heaven. I watched the young master grow up, but I never imagined that the young master would be the Prince's."
"This... Xiao Tao, does the Prince know about this?"
"It seems like they know."
"And what about the young master?"
"The young master is in the palace."
"What? The young master is in the palace?"
"That's right."
"How did the young master end up in the palace?"
"It was the Emperor who summoned him to the palace."
"What? The Emperor? The Emperor knows about the young master's existence?"
"Yes."
"This... could it be that the Emperor already knew about the Princess and the Prince that night, which is why he issued the decree for their marriage?"
"Huh? No, it's said that this marriage was arranged by the Empress Dowager for the Prince and Princess a long time ago."
Seeing that Granny Hua was truly baffled, Xiao Tao smiled and said, "Granny, please don't think about it. The Emperor only found out recently, and the young master has only been in the palace for about a month!"
"A month or two?"
"That's right."
"Xiao Tao, is the young master five years old now?"
"Yes! She's five years old."
"Xiao Tao, I remember six years ago, when the Princess was thrown into the Cold Courtyard, you didn't seem to go in with her, did you?"
"Replying to Granny, this servant did not go in with her. This servant only went to the outside of the Cold Courtyard every now and then to talk to Miss and secretly bring her some food."
"Granny, if it weren't for me visiting Miss from time to time, she probably wouldn't be here by now."
"Do you know how difficult it was for Miss to give birth to the young prince all by herself?"
"Whenever I think of what Miss said about her almost dying, I feel both terrified and heartbroken."
"You didn't know when the princess was giving birth?"
"This servant was unaware that it was only when I was in the cold courtyard more than a month later that I learned that Miss had given birth to a little prince."
"Alas! It was truly a hardship for the Princess. I wonder how she managed to give birth to the young prince all by herself in that cold courtyard."
After hearing this, Granny Hua looked distressed.
"Xiao Tao, how have you all managed all these years?"
"Granny, have you ever heard of the Ye Family Medical Clinic?"
"I've heard of it."
"That belongs to the young lady."
"What? The Ye Family Clinic is run by the Princess?"
"That's right. Not only that, the princess also opened the Royal View Hot Pot restaurant, a fabric shop, a pawnshop, and so on."
"This... the princess is actually doing business outside?"
"kindness!"
"Alright! Alright! As long as the princess hasn't suffered these past years, I'll let it go. Otherwise, I'll blame myself for the rest of my life."
"Granny, why are you blaming yourself?"
"Of course it's my fault. I didn't dissuade the prince back then! But fortunately, the princess has done quite well these past few years thanks to her own abilities."
"But Xiao Tao, does the Princess really know medicine?"
"Of course, the princess is the renowned Physician Ye, praised by everyone."
Xiao Tao raised her head and said proudly.
