843 Reminder, Become a Ninja Turtle

Who would want to stay here in the cold wind in the middle of winter? If he had known that Xiling Tianyu asked him to talk about these boring things, he would not have come.

Seeing that Xiling Tianyu had not spoken for a long time, the Ninth Prince said, "Tianyu, I am not in the mood to accompany you here in the cold wind. Next time, don't come to me for such things. I am not good at counseling people." After saying that, he turned around and left.

Rather than standing here in the cold wind, he would rather go back to Feng Mansion and have a meal with Feng Qingchen.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Of course I have something important to talk to you about. This is just a side issue." Xiling Tianyu came back to his senses and his expression became serious.

"There was a little accident in Xiling, and I was just about to discuss countermeasures with you." The plan that the Ninth Prince had set up in Xiling was gradually coming to an end, but no matter how perfect the plan was, it was impossible to anticipate accidents, and now an accident had occurred.

"What happened?" The Ninth Prince paused, but did not turn back.

Xiling Tianyu laughed, thinking to himself, "Now you know you're anxious, the more anxious you are, the less I'll tell you. Who told you to be so rude to me?" Xiling Tianyu pointed to the abandoned tower and said, "It's quite cold here. Let's go in and talk."

What needs to be said will be said sooner or later. The Ninth Prince was not in a hurry at all. He walked towards the inner tower. It was pitch black inside the tower, but it was obviously much better than outside. At least the howling cold wind could not blow in.

Xiling Tianyu didn't say anything, and the Ninth Prince was not in a hurry either. He stood quietly in the dark waiting for Xiling Tianyu to speak. Xiling Tianyu waited for a long time but the Ninth Prince didn't take the initiative to ask, so he had no choice but to speak.

"My aunt, the eldest princess, is pregnant."

Princess Xiling, Zuo'an's mother, had an affair with Xiling Zuo Xiang, and married Xiling's talented scholar Yinli. She became pregnant after more than 20 years of marriage. This news was extremely explosive.

I thought the Ninth Prince would be surprised, but he just asked calmly, "Has it been confirmed?"

The Ninth Emperor was worried that the other party was faking a pregnancy in order to hold Mr. Yinli back and prevent him from entering the court and taking up an official position.

It has to be said that Mr. Yinli was extremely unlucky to meet the eldest princess. When he was preparing to enter the court as an official with high spirits, he married the princess. He was cuckolded before he even got married. Not only did he lose his chance in officialdom, he also became a laughing stock in Xiling.

After more than 20 years, he finally had the opportunity to enter officialdom again and realize his ambitions. However, his princess wife became pregnant again, and under this circumstance, there was no hope for him to make a comeback.

"One hundred percent sure, a fake pregnancy can be easily exposed." The news that a middle-aged woman is pregnant is extremely shocking, and a lot of people are paying attention to it, so Xiling Tianyu can be sure that it is not fake.

"Is it your father's intention or her own?" It has to be said that plans cannot keep up with changes. Princess Xiling's move messed up the Ninth Prince's good plan. Fortunately, she could only involve Mr. Yinli, and would not involve the Xiling harem and the Jinyiwei.

"It was her own idea. Judging from the intelligence, my father acquiesced." The emperor no longer cares whether Mr. Yinli comes out of retirement or not, but he cares about such a person, who is in a high position as soon as he comes out and is brought up by the queen's family.

Xiling Tianyu can walk, and the Queen's family has allowed Mr. Bao Yinli to take the throne. It is easy to guess why. The Emperor of Xiling is different from the Emperor of Dongling. The Emperor of Xiling does not like his sons fighting for that position, otherwise he would not have appointed a crown prince so early, although this is also related to the situation.

Knowing this, the Ninth Prince knew what to do, but it was impossible for him to just give up. The Ninth Prince asked insidiously, "Whose child is it?"

Phew... Xiling Tianyu laughed. Only the Ninth Uncle dared to ask. Under normal circumstances, a married princess's children would of course be her husband's. But their Princess Xiling's children were not her husband's.

"I don't know. On the surface, it's Mr. Yinli's. When she was pregnant, Mr. Yinli stayed in the princess's mansion for one night. Mr. Yinli got drunk that night and slept in the eldest princess's bed after waking up. But Mr. Yinli is sure that he and the eldest princess did not do anything. But no matter whether he did it or not, he can only admit it now." Xiling Tianyu knew more about royal secrets like this than the Ninth Uncle. Even if the Ninth Uncle's people wanted to investigate, they would not be as detailed and quick as him.

Besides, most of the Ninth Prince's power in Xiling was handed over to Xiling Tianyu, which was a sign of trust in him. It was normal for Xiling Tianyu to know about it in advance.

After listening to this, the Ninth Prince Uncle said insincerely: "How pitiful." In fact, the Ninth Prince Uncle wanted to say that it was really stupid. He had suffered so much at the hands of the eldest princess, and yet he still fell into the hands of the eldest princess.

"It's really pitiful. He has to wear a cuckold when he is old. It's just that Mr. Yinli is open-minded. If it were me, I would have jumped into the moat long ago." If it were him, he would definitely not be able to endure it. Mr. Yinli's ability to endure is really better than that of a turtle.

"Even if he jumped, it wouldn't change the facts. He is not just one person. He has a family behind him. His family is losing its talents. If he dies, his entire family will fall." This is not an exaggeration. The younger generations of Mr. Yinli's family have become shapeless due to the intentional or unintentional indulgence of the eldest princess.

The emperor of Xiling used the tactic of flattery to death very well. He used a princess without moral principles to completely destroy Mr. Yinli's scholarly family. It was truly a bloodless killing.

"That's true. And it would be too cowardly to die like this." It's just like when he was crippled in the legs, he never thought of committing suicide. Even though in the eyes of everyone, a prince with crippled legs had no future at all, he still refused to give up on himself. Facts have proved that his choice was right. If it weren't for his persistence back then, how could he be where he is today.

"How do you plan to deal with this matter? My aunt is pregnant, and the child is officially Mr. Yinli's. It is impossible to let Mr. Yinli take over the position of Left Prime Minister now." The other plans have not changed, but they must adjust this point.

If he had received this news before today, the Ninth Prince might have given up Mr. Yinli without hesitation, but now he has a better plan.

"Let's postpone the matter of the Left Prime Minister until the eldest princess gives birth to the child." That would only take nine months. He could afford to wait, and he believed that Mr. Yinli could also afford to wait.

"Okay." In the darkness, Xiling Tianyu couldn't see the expression on the Ninth Uncle's face, but he could feel the murderous aura emanating from the Ninth Uncle's body. Xiling Tianyu felt cold all over, and he knew that his aunt was probably in trouble.

"Whatever you want to do, don't do anything reckless. My father will never allow any scandal in the royal family." Xiling Tianyu vaguely guessed what the Ninth Uncle was going to do, and it was precisely because he guessed it that he was worried.

No matter whose child his aunt's belly belonged to, it could only be Mr. Yinli's, there was no doubt about that.
