Back at the Lotus Banquet, Xuanyuan Jingye desperately winked at Yao Xinyan.
However, the usually intelligent woman seemed to have suddenly become blind and ignored the man's expression.
The anxious Xuanyuan Jingye could only mobilize his spies in the Shangshu Mansion again, but this time, the spies did not come back and Yao Xinyan ignored him.
Just when Xuanyuan Jingye was feeling uneasy, he actually saw a familiar face: Zhuang Luoqin, the daughter of the dean of Qingshan Academy.
Isn't this woman always aloof, absorbed in poetry and songs, and dislikes socializing?
How could he appear at the Lotus Banquet in Shangshu Mansion?
Moreover, Zhuang Luoqin actually greeted Yao Xinyan, and the two seemed to be very familiar with each other.
How could that be?
When Xuanyuan Jingye saw this scene, he almost exploded.
However, before he could explode, something even more explosive happened.
After changing her clothes, Liu Ruyue actually walked towards Zhuang Luoqin and Yao Xinyan. The three of them stood together chatting and laughing, looking very comfortable.
The gathering of beauties is like a beautiful painting, and everyone finds it pleasing to the eye, except Xuanyuan Jingye, who feels a chilling chill: How come the three women he hooked up with got together?
Moreover, the three of them kept talking and glancing at him from time to time, making it seem as if they were discussing him.
No matter how strong he was, Xuanyuan Jingye's mentality was also affected.
He could no longer hold his temper, and led some noble young men towards the three people.
"Miss Yao, I wonder what you are all talking about that makes you look so happy?"
Xuanyuan Jingye could no longer hold his temper and asked directly.
When Yao Xinyan saw the scumbag coming up to her to get scolded, she really wanted to scold him to death.
However, for the sake of the three of them's reputation, she could only smile softly and gently answer, "What a coincidence! Although the Empress, Sister Zhuang, and I have never met before, we recently discovered that we have a mutual friend. This friend wrote to us separately, which made us very happy. We were just discussing those letters..."
“…”
“!!!”
Hearing Yao Xinyan's answer, Xuanyuan Jingye's scalp tingled instantly: Aaaaaaaah!!! The three of them actually knew about his three-timing affair.
Moreover, all three of them seemed to hate him, and the look in their eyes was full of disgust and disdain.
What's more important is that he couldn't explain it in front of so many people!
At this moment, Xuanyuan Jingye felt a headache and panic: There is no scene more exciting and difficult to handle than this!
In this kind of situation, if no one fainted, it would be a shame to the special arrangements made by Yao Xinyan and others.
So, Xuanyuan Jingye simply fainted...
After the Lotus Banquet, Xuanyuan Yunche learned from Deputy Chief Han what Xuanyuan Jingye had said to Liu Ruyue, and immediately abolished the title of Prince Jing, confiscated his property, and exiled Yilong.
His son was carried back unconscious. Zhou Churan from Prince Jing's Mansion was extremely worried. Before he could find out what happened at the Lotus Banquet, the emperor's edict arrived.
Upon hearing that his title was revoked, he was demoted to a commoner, his property was confiscated and he was exiled, Zhou Churan was very puzzled and loudly criticized.
In response, Eunuch Huang simply said to everyone in Prince Jing's Mansion, "When he wakes up, ask him what he said to the Empress in the Shangshu Mansion..."
Looking at Eunuch Huang's attitude, everyone in Prince Jing's Mansion realized that Xuanyuan Jingye had caused a big disaster.
At that moment, he didn't care that Xuanyuan Jingye was still unconscious. He immediately pinched his Ren Zhong point to wake him up and forced him to tell him what he had said to the Queen Mother at the Lotus Banquet.
Xuanyuan Jingye, who had just experienced a boat capsize, did not expect that after waking up he would have to face the confiscation of property and exile. He was completely stunned.
Moreover, his father, who had always been gentle to him, and his brothers and sisters, who had always been respectful to him, all asked him fiercely what he had said, and he could only stammer and tell him something in general.
After hearing this, everyone in Prince Jing’s Mansion felt disheartened: His Majesty was so magnanimous that he could spare the lives of everyone in Prince Jing’s Mansion even though the words were like treason.
However, when they were taken out of Prince Jing's mansion and were not allowed to take any treasures or wealth with them, and were even forced to take off their silk and satin clothes and change into coarse linen clothes prepared by the government, they felt that the emperor was being stingy...
At the Lotus Banquet, Liu Ruyue not only got rid of Xuanyuan Jingye, but also helped the emperor win over the Shangshu Mansion and Qingshan Academy.
In the court, the regime, which was originally somewhat divided, gradually moved closer to the emperor because of the stance of Shangshu Mansion and Qingshan Academy.
Feeling all this, Xuanyuan Yunche felt that Liu Ruyue was simply a goddess who had reincarnated just to bless him.
So, as soon as the court was over, he hurried back to Kunning Palace to fight with Liu Ruyue for three hundred rounds.
Another month passed like this, and in the court, some ministers began to propose choosing a son from among the royal family members who had been selected earlier to adopt him under the name of Xuanyuan Yunche and enthrone him as the crown prince.
Originally, Xuanyuan Yunche was in a good mood every day, hugging his little wife to study the Yin-Yang Harmony Method. He felt that he had regained his virility and was a very capable man.
When he heard the ministers' proposal, he became so angry that his face turned green.
These damn old guys just proposed to adopt a child when he was beginning to think he was capable. Are they trying to constantly remind him that he was not capable?
Although he was angry, Xuanyuan Yunche knew in his heart that these people were working to stabilize the Beigan regime.
However, he still felt somewhat unwilling and angry in his heart: he had suffered so much since childhood, killed several of his brothers with his own hands, and walked through mountains of corpses and seas of blood before he could sit on the dragon throne.
Now, because he is unable to have children, he has to hand over his throne to someone else.
What about all the efforts before that?
Reluctance and pain tortured Xuanyuan Yunche.
Even when he returned to Kunning Palace and saw his little sun Liu Ruyue, the smile on Xuanyuan Yunche's face was still a little stiff and forced.
"Uncle, what's wrong with you?"
Sometimes, for fun, Liu Ruyue would call Xuanyuan Yunche "Uncle". The age gap made Liu Ruyue feel very excited.
However, this time, her cry did not receive a violent response from the man.
Thinking of the news she had heard, she instantly got an inspiration. She put her hands in front of her mouth and began to retch...
As a qualified woman who knows how to understand a man's mind, you have to solve his problems at critical moments.
She deliberately kept the fact of her pregnancy a secret, just to wait for the right opportunity.
Now is that opportunity.
Revealing the pregnancy at this moment could solve Xuanyuan Yunche's problem and maximize Xuanyuan Yunche's surprise.
However, Xuanyuan Yunche had never experienced a woman being pregnant. Seeing Liu Ruyue's painful expression, he immediately hugged her nervously and asked:
"Yue'er, what's wrong? What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Did you eat something that upset your stomach?"
Even Eunuch Huang jumped up and down and shouted, "Call the imperial physician, call the imperial physician quickly..."
Luo Sheng and Luo Shu were so nervous that they were about to cry. The entire Kunning Palace was in chaos...
