Xiao Yanbao returned to the palace alone, and Ye Zeyan stayed in the mansion outside the palace to accompany Mo Zixiu.

Ye Zeyan knew that if he entered the palace with his sister, he would be a transparent person in front of his father and mother, and no one would pay attention to him, so he simply did not go with them.

This time, Xiao Yanbao went to Qianhe Palace first. She was worried about the kinship line.

Although she was closer to her mother, business was more important.

Emperor Lan Qian had been holding a memorial in his hand and had been reading it for a while, but it was unclear whether he had read it carefully or not.

Zhang Fu, who was standing by, looked at the emperor's worried expression and sighed in his heart. He also looked outside the palace from time to time, wondering why the little princess hadn't come back yet.

The emperor didn't know what was on his mind.

He hadn't seen the emperor so worried since the little princess returned to the palace.

It seems that the visit of the envoy from Xuan Kingdom has indeed brought a lot of pressure to the emperor.

Finally, Zhang Fu asked cautiously, "Your Majesty, would you like me to pour you a cup of tea?"

Emperor Lan Qian seemed to have heard Zhang Fu's words, but also seemed not to have heard them. He put down the memorial in his hand, stood up, and said, "Go sit in the Queen's Palace."

Zhang Fu bowed and followed the emperor. Just as he was about to leave, little Yanbao came in.

"Dad, where are you going?"

When Emperor Lan Qian heard Xiao Yanbao's voice, it was as if his soul had returned to his body and his eyes instantly focused.

"Yan Bao, you are finally back!"

Then he bent down and picked up little Yanbao.

Zhang Fu also secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Well, the little princess is finally back.

As long as the little princess comes back, the emperor will be happy.

Little Yanbao looked at his father and said, "Dad, you didn't find out?"

Emperor Lan Qian did not answer Xiao Yanbao's words, but glanced at Zhang Fu.

Zhang Fu immediately understood, turned around and went out, closing the door behind him.

Little Yanbao didn't quite understand why his father didn't let Zhang Fu hear about this.

Are you afraid of losing face for the royal family by doing something shameful?

"The only person in the palace who knows what happened is Concubine Zhen. I asked her and she said that the child died that year."

Little Yanbao knew nothing about the past, so he was confused when he heard what his father said.

"Dad, can you tell me exactly what happened?"

Emperor Lan Qian pondered, "If the kinship line between Qin Zhe and I is true, then Qin Zhe can only be the son born to Consort Xian, the favorite of the late emperor. At that time, Sheng was not the empress, but Sheng relied on the military merits of the Sheng family to be domineering in the palace and killed the children of the concubines in the harem. The late emperor was afraid of the Sheng family and could only turn a blind eye. However, in order to protect the child in Consort Xian's belly, he secretly sent Consort Xian out of the palace to give birth. This was done in a very secretive manner, but on the day of the birth, she was still killed by people sent by Sheng. It is said that there were two lives lost."

Little Yan Bao glanced at his father. Under such cruel circumstances as the Sheng family was, his father was still able to survive and sit on the throne. He was truly blessed.

It turns out that those who can sit on the throne are all assisted by God.

Xiao Yanbao: If only that Concubine Xian was alive, she would only need to take a look at the kinship line to know whether Qin Zhe was born to Concubine Xian.

"Apart from the one Daddy mentioned, are there no other royal descendants living abroad?"

Emperor Lan Qian quickly explained: "I am not a promiscuous person, and I don't have any illegitimate children outside the palace."

When little Yanbao saw his father like this, he burst out laughing.

That's not what she meant.

The kinship line is blue, not gold.

Besides, in terms of age, they don't fit the relationship of father and son. Why is Dad so nervous?

Are you afraid that I will tell mother bad things about father?

Daddy, you are the emperor, who can control you?

When little Yan Bao smiled, Emperor Lan Qian finally reacted and felt a little annoyed.

But then he changed his mind and thought, why should he be upset in front of his daughter?

"At least as far as I know, the late emperor has no more descendants living abroad."

"It's not difficult. Daddy hasn't figured it out yet, so I'll ask the King of Hell."

Emperor Lan Qian's eyes suddenly widened.

"Can the King of Hell really find out?"

Xiao Yanbao: The King of Hell's Book of Life and Death doesn't just record the time of death, it records many other things.

There are only a few characters I know, so I don’t know what is written on it.

"Then please ask the King of Hell." Emperor Lan Qian said impatiently.

Xiao Yanbao threw out a ghost charm.

If Qin Zhe was sent to Xuan State when he was born, then Qin Zhe probably didn't know his true life experience.

This person is truly despicable for using people from Lan Country to deal with Lan Country.

The King of Hell came up very quickly, and this time he did not bring the Black and White Impermanence with him, which surprised little Yan Bao.

"Your Majesty, you won't send Blackie and Whiteie to guard the door again, will you?"

Yan Wang grinned, "No way, they have other things to do, so I didn't ask them to come along. If Yan Bao has something to ask them, I will call them up right away."

Xiao Yanbao shook his head and said, "I'm just asking casually."

"Then Yan Bao called me up so late, is there something important?"

"I have something to ask you."

King of Hell: Anything that you call me here to inquire about is difficult to investigate in the human world.

Little Yanbao continued, "The true life story of the Xuan Kingdom's Royal Lord, Qin Zhe."

King of Hell: It’s just as I thought.

The King of Hell didn't say anything, but took out the Book of Life and Death and said, "Let me help Yan Bao take a look."

The King of Hell unfolded the Book of Life and Death and frowned slightly.

"He is the prince of Lan Kingdom?"

"Is he the son of the virtuous imperial concubine?" Emperor Lan Qian confirmed.

King Yan glanced at Emperor Lan Qian, then shook his head, "No."

Emperor Lan Qian looked at King Yan in surprise: "Isn't he the son of the virtuous imperial concubine?"

The King of Hell is a little impatient. You are the emperor of the world, and I am the King of Hell of the underworld. We each take care of our own affairs. If it weren't for Yan Bao's relationship, I would come to answer your questions. Don't you understand what I'm saying?

Wasn't what I just said clear?

He has to repeat it.

Just because he speaks nicely, do you really think he is easy to talk to?

Emperor Lan Qian saw that King Yan looked unhappy, so he quickly moved closer to his daughter.

"Then who is Qin Zhe's biological mother?" asked little Yanbao.

Dad just swore that there were no other princes wandering around.

"It's Concubine Zhen, now Concubine Zhen of Lan Kingdom."

After the King of Hell said this, an expression of disbelief appeared on Emperor Lan Qian's face.

"How can this be?"

In fact, Emperor Lan Qian said this sentence unconsciously.

I said it in my mind, but I don't know how the words came out of my mouth.

The King of Hell slammed the Book of Life and Death in his hand shut.

"Since you don't believe what I say, why are you asking me? Why don't you check it yourself?"
