The Reborn Noble Girl is Hard to Find - Chapter 208

Fu Yunxi sat quietly beside Han Yan, it was beyond his imagination for Han Yan to figure out everything so quickly. Although he was on guard at the very beginning about the emperor’s brother chasing and killing Han Yan, he still did not expect that the emperor’s brother would act so quickly. The emperor had been sitting in that position for too long, too long to allow anyone who threatened his status to live. Once he knew that Han Yan was the daughter of King Donghou, and that King Donghou was the emperor ordered by the previous emperor, he immediately killed him. Although Han Yan is only a woman, it is impossible to be the emperor, but once Han Yan’s identity is revealed, everyone will know that the emperor’s current position is not justified, and everyone will rise up against him. This is something that the emperor cannot bear. So even if he knew that Han Yan was pitiful, even if he knew that maybe Han Yan was the real princess, the emperor would still kill her. As a ruler, there was nothing wrong with doing this.

But Fu Yunxi herself could not sit idly by. The emperor and the queen mother almost reached a tacit understanding on the matter of Han Yan, and neither of them wanted Han Yan to live. Back then, Tang Xiaoqiao’s maid escaped from Donghou Wangfu with Han Yan in her arms, and handed Han Yan over to the Wang family. It is not unknown that Han Yan used the identity of Zhuang Hanyan to live in Zhuangfu. How powerful is the Queen Mother, at least when Han Yan was found in the capital, it was more than enough. But when she found out that Han Yan was the slippery fish of the Donghou Wangfu, she did not kill them all, because the imperial decree had not yet been found.

The last edict that the first emperor established Donghou Wang as the emperor has not yet been discovered. The queen mother knew that the first emperor had handed over the edict to a person, and that person had not appeared for a long time, so the queen mother wanted to use Han Yan to print that person out. As long as Han Yan was there, that person knew that Han Yan was the child of King Donghou, and he would definitely hand over the imperial edict to Han Yan. But for so many years, that person has not appeared.

The queen mother wanted to simply kill Han Yan, but in this way there was no bait to lure that person out. So she asked Wei Rufeng to marry Han Yan, because King Wei was the Queen Mother’s confidant, which was equivalent to keeping all Han Yan under surveillance. If the cold wild goose is in trouble again, the queen mother will know immediately.

When the Da Zhou family entered the Zhuang Mansion, it was to find out where the imperial decree was. The Queen Mother still couldn’t trust Zhuang Shiyang. She was afraid that Zhuang Shiyang would keep it private when she got the imperial decree, so she asked Zhang Taishi to check. Taishi Zhang let the Da Zhou family, who was related to the Zhou family, enter the Zhuang Mansion, approached Zhuang Shiyang, and stayed in the Zhuang Mansion for a few more days on the grounds of visiting the small-born Zhou family to check the whereabouts of the imperial decree. It’s just that Taishi Zhang didn’t expect that the Da Zhou clan not only failed to find out the whereabouts of the imperial edict, but also found out in front of everyone that he had an adulterous affair with Zhuang Shiyang, making him the laughing stock of the whole capital.

There are reasons why these things have developed to this point many years ago. The emperor’s throne is actually the king of Donghou, and Han Yan is the real golden branch and jade leaves. But Fu Yunxi is now suffering from cold poison, and there may be no possibility of cure.

Her eyebrows were twisted into a ball. The current situation was so tricky that she felt at a loss. Fu Yunxi was not wrong about this, and she was not wrong, but if she said nothing, she was open and honest. Get along, but it’s a little weird.

“You know.” Fu Yunxi said, “What are you going to do?”

Han Yan turned to look at him, what else could he do? You can’t rush into the palace now and grab the throne, right? She didn’t want to do that, and it was best to maintain the status quo if she could. She is still an unknown ordinary woman, and he is still a powerful royal prince.

Imperial Physician Wu and Cheng Lei looked at each other, and the two quietly retreated, leaving the space for the two of them. Han Yan and Fu Yunxi should have a lot to say.

“Fu Yunxi.” Han Yan asked, “What happened to your cold poison?”

As soon as the three words “Fu Yunxi” came out, Han Yan paused slightly, and Fu Yunxi was the same. When they were together before, whenever Han Yan lost his way, he would call him by his name. The cold “Prince” has lost that politeness and alienation, and only has subtle intimacy. After so long, hearing Han Yan call him like that again, Fu Yunxi felt as if he had passed away.

“Temporarily.” He said, “I can’t die yet.”

Han Yan turned to look at him. Although this handsome young man was lingering on the sickbed, he was still very handsome, without any sense of gloom and depression. It seems that nothing in this world can trouble him, but this person can’t even control his own destiny. I don’t know what to say, it seems that I don’t need to say anything. After knowing the truth, even the explanation is superfluous. She has been holding Fu Yunxi’s sleeve stubbornly, as if afraid that he will escape, but also as if to calm her inner uneasiness. Fu Yunxi also noticed her action, and took the initiative to stretch out her hand to cover her little hand. Although Fu Yunxi’s hand was cold, Han Yan seemed to feel a touch of warmth. This calmed her dazed heart a lot.

“Can you tell me about the cold poison?” After a long time, Han Yan asked.

Fu Yunxi paused for a moment, then smiled slightly: “Okay.” Then she began to slowly tell the past that had been kept in her heart for many years and had never been told to outsiders.

Fu Yunxi’s biological mother, Concubine Jing, is a great beauty, which can be seen from the looks of Fu Yunxi and the emperor. Both Fu Yunxi brothers inherited their mother’s excellent appearance. Concubine Jing is a gentle and honest person, like a lotus flower in the palace. Such a person is not suitable for living in the palace, but Concubine Jing was an accident. Because the emperor loves her very much, the emperor not only loves her, but the emperor’s love alone is not enough. The emperor cannot control the affairs of the harem. The majesty of the empress dowager in the palace is unquestionable, so no one dared to move the concubine Jing.

Concubine Jing is gentle and does not compete for favor with others. The more she is like this, the more the emperor loves her. But the emperor’s favor is not a good thing. The women in the harem were jealous of her, and among them, the queen was the worst.

As the queen of the lord of the six palaces, she has to maintain a virtuous and tolerant appearance on weekdays. This does not mean that the queen can tolerate any woman to occupy the emperor. In particular, the emperor’s love for Concubine Jing has given the queen a sense of crisis, making her feel that her guard is a little unstable. After Concubine Jing gave birth to two sons for the emperor and was about to give birth to the third child, the queen finally couldn’t sit still.

The queen herself has no son, and her mother is precious. The emperor has always preferred Concubine Jing. Now Concubine Jing has given birth to sons for the emperor one after another, and her status is even more unshakable, even surpassing her as the queen in private. If the emperor had the intention to make Concubine Jing’s son the crown prince, his status would be at stake. Could it be that you run your own life and work hard to play the empress who is generous and virtuous, and in the end does make wedding clothes for others?
