Yinzhu slowly calmed down, and then she thought of asking Shen Yuanbai, "Sir, when will the truth be revealed to the world?"

Shen Yuanbai tilted his head and thought for a moment, then said, "Just in the next few days."

On his way back to the capital, he did not hear any news. It seemed that Qiao Jiaojiao...had left him some time.

When Yinzhu heard this, her expression changed drastically.

"Just these few days? But sir, you haven't established yourself in the royal court yet. If you make the truth known now, those people in the royal court will be in a state of panic, and you will be in great danger too!"

After all, Yinzhu had been working in Nanli for many years, and he saw the problem at a glance.

If the news spreads, King Jin Yu will surely rush to find the prince and force him to clarify in front of the world, and then push all the blame on the Yong Dynasty, turning the truth into a premeditated slander from the Yong Dynasty.

When Shen Yuanbai returned to the capital, he had already realized it. He said to Yinzhu in a gentle voice:

"I have already made arrangements and have my own countermeasures. You should take your men and leave the capital as soon as possible today."

"After your mother's long-cherished wish is fulfilled, Yinzhu, I will set you free."

King Jin Yu has already noticed Eun Joo, and it would be dangerous for her to stay in the capital.

Before my mother passed away, she made a series of arrangements. More than ten years have passed in a flash. Aunt Rou, Jinzhu, Yinzhu, and Uncle Zhou seem to be trapped in the past and have never been able to let it go.

Yinzhu has done enough, and he hopes that in the future, Yinzhu can live for herself.

Yinzhu was so perceptive that she could hear the farewell hidden in Shen Yuanbai's words.

She suddenly stepped forward, knelt in front of Shen Yuanbai, and said in panic: "Master, why are you chasing me away? How can I let you face this huge royal court alone?"

"Sir, what is your countermeasure? Tell me, I can help you, sir!"

Yinzhu has always been very sensible, but now, she has crossed the line in front of Shen Yuanbai.

She was afraid, because the young master was the princess' only blood in the world, her master, and her only motivation to live!

If she hadn’t had an important mission back then, and if the world hadn’t been so ugly, she would have accompanied the princess long ago!

The princess was so lonely and so fragile. She had to hold her hand before going to bed. I wonder how scared she would be without her on her way to the underworld...

This thought has been lingering in Yinzhu's mind for more than ten years and has almost become a heart disease for her.

Now she just wanted to see the prince being well. Even if he didn't want power or the position of king, it would be great if he could live freely...

But Shen Yuanbai had obviously made up his mind. His face darkened and his voice became colder.

"Yinzhu, do not disobey my order and leave today. Do not come back secretly, it will only ruin my plan or make it fail."

Shen Yuanbai's words were very harsh, but the moment he turned and left, there was a trace of reluctance on his face.

Yinzhu, Yinzhu, you have done enough for your mother.

I used to take your loyalty for granted, but now I realize that there is no such thing as "taken for granted" in this world.

Let me live for myself. I am the one who should fulfill my mother's last wish.

"Young Master!"

Yinzhu looked at Shen Yuanbai's resolute back and shouted loudly, tears already streaming down her face.

She doesn't want any freedom, she just wants to stay by the young master's side and protect him!

After all, Yinzhu could not disobey Shen Yuanbai's order, so he disguised himself and left the royal capital in the afternoon of that day under the protection of five or six people.

Shen Yuanbai was sitting in the teahouse at the city gate. He did not show up to see Yinzhu off, but just watched her leave from afar.

Now, he is truly alone, without any worries or weaknesses...

Next, it’s time to give the childbirth controversy one final push!

————

The royal palace.

As the first person in the royal court to become pregnant in all these years, Li Ji has been in the limelight these days and has become the focus of everyone's attention.

She was a new dancer who had entered the palace two years ago. Because of her pretty face and graceful figure, she was noticed by King Jin Yu at first sight and was given the title of Li Ji.

Everyone thought that the king was just looking for something new, but they didn't expect that Li Ji was actually capable. She has been favored in the past two years and is now pregnant with a dragon seed!

The interesting thing is that Li Ji never relied on her favor to become arrogant, and after she became pregnant, she did not use this opportunity to show off. She rarely even went out of the palace, and the food and cakes she ate were carefully selected by Prince Jin Yu before being sent in.

Prince Jin Yu would visit Li Ji once a day, and every time Li Ji would talk to him gently and attentively.

Now that her belly was getting bigger, occasionally when Prince Jin Yu wanted to do something wrong, Li Ji would tactfully refuse and make Prince Jin Yu happy.

As soon as Prince Jin Yu left tonight, Li Ji, who had personally escorted him to the palace door with a smile on her face just a moment ago, turned around and her face became gloomy.

"Aduo, please repeat what you just said."

Ah Duo was Li Ji's personal maid. She hurried forward and whispered in her ear:

"My queen, someone has sent you a message asking you to pay attention to the abnormalities of the noble ladies of marriageable age in the capital. Be careful... be careful not to become a target for others and make wedding dresses for others..."

Li Ji's eyes flashed when she heard that, and she quickly touched her belly.

Her expression changed several times. After a long while, she let out a long breath and asked calmly, "Can you find out who sent the message?"

A Duo shook her head. "My Lady, the messenger passed by me and disappeared in a flash. I have already sent someone to investigate, but... nothing was found."

When Li Ji heard this, her face became even darker.

To be chosen to enter the royal court as a dancer, one must have gone through layers of screening. Li Ji was ambitious and capable, so she worked hard in her early years and learned a lot of skills and strategies. Otherwise, how could she have remained favored for two years?

She thought for a moment and winked at A Duo, "No matter who brought the news, since you have doubts in your heart, then go and check it out."

A Duo nodded hurriedly and was about to turn around and leave, but Li Ji suddenly called A Duo back and whispered to her, "You must be extremely cautious. Even the king cannot know about it."

Upon hearing this, A Duo looked up suddenly, saw the serious expression of her master, and nodded heavily.

"Don't worry, Madam. I will make it beautiful."

Li Ji nodded slowly, holding her belly and slowly sat back on the couch.

She had not wasted the two years of favor. After all, it was difficult to keep a man company by relying on her beauty for long, so she always had to keep some confidence and manpower for herself.

"To make wedding clothes for others..."

Li Ji murmured these words and suddenly clenched the quilt in her hand.

Don't think that you can be easily controlled just because of her humble background. The child in her belly is her life now, and the position of crown prince must belong to her child!

As for men?

Thinking of Prince Jin Yu, Li Ji sneered.

An incompetent guy who has the good intentions but not the power, and who also has a disgusting habit. When he hugs her, he calls her "Ling'er", which makes her feel sick!

If he wasn't lucky enough to be born into a royal family, even if this bastard had a good-looking appearance, she, Jiang Li, wouldn't even bother to even look at him!

Just wait, her child will surely become a superior person and the most honorable king in the North!
