When Yan Bao saw the emperor staring at her jade pendant, she generously took it off and gave it to the emperor.
The emperor raised his eyebrows: "Give it to me?"
Yan Bao complained in his mind: [You wish! I want you to open your eyes wide and see clearly. Does she look familiar? She looks like you. Does she look like you by the Daming Lake... No, it's that woman on the Qinhuai River who attracted me by her beauty?]
Shen Shoufu suddenly felt the aroma of wine from the banquet.
Mrs. Shen almost choked on the pastry.
The Thirteenth Prince blinked and asked, "What Qinhuai River woman?"
Lustful at first sight?
Father is going to visit the flower boat?
The Thirteenth Prince looked at the Emperor with a bit of contempt.
I didn't expect you to be such a father.
Wait, how does Yan Bao know so much?
Looking at the emperor's confused expression, the Thirteenth Prince realized that his father obviously had not remembered it.
Eunuch Fu also realized that the emperor had forgotten it long ago.
As a servant, he had to remind: "Your Majesty, thirteen years ago, the Qinhuai River Lotus Slave."
The emperor suddenly had an epiphany, and the memory of the past suddenly attacked him. He looked at the jade pendant in his hand and felt it was burning. "Where did Yan Bao get this jade pendant?"
Yan Bao wrote on the emperor's palm: This is a gift from my brother Ah Huai.
"Who is Ah Huai?" Why did you call him brother? Don't you have only two brothers in your family? Could it be that he is the son of Chief Minister Shen outside? I haven't heard that he has a concubine or an illegitimate child!
Yan Bao continued to write: Brother Ahuai from Jingzhou is looking for his father.
Yan Bao felt that he had written it clearly enough. If the emperor still didn't know it, he would be really stupid.
Who knew that the emperor really didn't know. He had a look of eating melon on his face, and glanced at Chief Minister Shen with a smile. Chief Minister Shen happened to look over, and their eyes met. The emperor's eyes were full of ridicule. I didn't expect you to be such a Chief Minister Shen.
Shen Shoufu raised his glass to the emperor perfunctorily. What was that expression on the emperor's face? Why did he look like he had something on me? Could it be that he thought Ah Huai was my destiny?
Bah, bah, bah, I won’t take the blame. I am devoted to my wife and have no other thoughts. I won’t go on a flower boat ride. I’m not someone who runs away after sleeping with her.
Yan Bao: [The emperor doesn't seem very smart. Even after I said this, the emperor still looked at my father with a mocking expression. He wouldn't think that Ah Huai is my father's son, right?]
Mrs. Shen: “….”
Not very smart indeed.
Shen Shoufu: “…”
Yanbao talks more, and his father likes to listen.
Thirteenth Prince: “…”
It turns out that what Yan Bao said about having an extra brother was true. The one named A Huai was the emperor's son.
The emperor wanted to ask again, but Eunuch Fu had already changed his mind and apologized for his previous offense. How could he have thought that Yan Bao was the emperor's daughter? Did the emperor look like someone who could give birth to such a lovely daughter?
That jade pendant must belong to someone else.
It must be that Ah Huai.
Looking for dad?
Isn’t it just looking for the emperor?
Oh my God, that woman gave birth to the emperor's son?
The emperor's dark history can no longer be covered up. If people knew that he went on a flower boat, redeemed a girl, and even gave birth to a prince, he would probably be twelve years old, right?
Oh my God, the emperor’s reputation is about to be ruined.
Before the incident became a big deal, Eunuch Fu whispered in the emperor's ear, "Your Majesty, that Ah Huai, is he looking for you?"
The emperor's head buzzed. He couldn't even remember what the woman looked like, and how could she suddenly give birth to a son?
Is it really true?
If Yan Bao knew about this, he would definitely call him a scumbag. If it’s not yours, whose else could it be? You are so heartless, but others are devoted and loyal to you, tui!
The emperor took a deep breath, suppressed his inner shock, and forced a smile: "The jade pendant is good, take good care of it and don't drop it."
As he said this, he stuffed the money into Yan Bao's arms as if afraid of being seen.
Shen Shoufu: “…”
The emperor felt guilty.
Mrs. Shen: “…”
The emperor wants to default on his debt.
Thirteenth Prince: “…”
Father, how could you lift Yan Bao's clothes? You have no shame!
Eunuch Fu turned around and gave orders, asking someone to inquire about the situation of Ah Huai from Prime Minister Shen's family. As the chief steward in front of the emperor, he wanted to know Ah Huai's background within a stick of incense.
Yan Bao saw through the emperor's cautiousness: "If the dog emperor doesn't want to recognize Ah Huai, in my heart, you are the same as a turtle. From now on, I will never play with you again, nor will I cling to you. I will make my father rebel."
Shen Shoufu coughed a few times and was choked.
Yan Bao, you think too highly of your father.
rebel?
It's not impossible.
Mrs. Shen: “…”
I heard nothing, nothing at all.
Thirteenth Prince: “…”
Yanbao, what did you say? The wind is too strong and I couldn’t hear you!
At the following banquet, the emperor was absent-minded. Yan Bao had made his presence felt enough, as if nothing had happened. He returned to Madam Shen to eat and drink, and when the banquet was over, he took a New Year gift prepared by the emperor.
This time the emperor did not call Yan Bao over for questioning, but left with Eunuch Fu.
Concubine Jiang wanted to say a few words to the emperor, but the emperor ran very fast today, as if something happened.
Concubine Jiang didn't dare to chase after him and could only stand where she was.
When one of the concubines saw this, she mocked Concubine Jiang and said, "Why did the Emperor leave? I thought he would call Sister Jiang. Don't be angry, Sister. Maybe the Emperor will remember it later!"
Concubine Jiang: "..."
On the emperor's side, Eunuch Fu had already inquired clearly: "Your Majesty, a young man from Jingzhou did come to the residence of Prime Minister Shen seven days ago. He looked about eleven or twelve years old and had a delicate appearance. He said that he came to the capital with the annual gift of Master Shen."
