After killing four concubines, the queen was sentenced to death and reborn

Xiao Chengji walked up to Xiao Xuanchen and grabbed the jade pendant on his waist. This jade pendant with dragon and phoenix patterns was carved from bluish-white jade. It was yellowish-white in color and had a dragon carved on it. The jade was round and the craftsmanship was perfect.

Xiao Chengji grabbed the jade pendant string, shook it, giggled, and tilted his little head to stare at Xiao Xuanchen. Everyone was stunned when they saw this scene.

The jade pendant on Xiao Xuanchen's body has a dragon engraved on it. Traditionally, only the emperor could wear the dragon pattern.

The Queen Mother subconsciously looked at his expression and immediately came out to smooth things over, "The Crown Prince is really good at catching things. He knows what is the most valuable."

Zheng Xiyan also carefully checked Xiao Xuanchen's expression. Although he looked calm, the more so, the more worried she became.

Zheng Xiyan walked forward, picked up Xiao Chengji, and said, "Ji'er, these are the things you want to catch."

Then he carried him back. "Ah ah..." Xiao Chengji shouted angrily twice to express his protest.

This little expression made everyone laugh.

"Jier, be good and go grab it." Zheng Xiyan urged, pointing to a book on the table.

Xiao Chengji didn't cooperate at all, and stretched out his little hand to Xiao Xuanchen, "Father~"

Zheng Xiyan grabbed his little hand and said, "How about grabbing this?"

"Ah ah ah..."

The Queen Mother then spoke up, "It's just a jade pendant. Since the prince has caught it, it belongs to him. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Xiao Xuanchen's expression at this moment was intriguing. "What the Queen Mother said is true."

But at this moment, Xiao Chengji was attracted by the wooden sword beside him. He then staggered over, squatted down and picked up the wooden sword.

After picking up the wooden sword, he walked towards Zheng Xiyan, threw himself into her arms, and giggled.

Everyone was so charmingly charmed by his laughter that they forgot what had just happened.

Zheng Xiyan picked him up and said, "Ji'er, you caught him really well. In the future, he will definitely become a man with great martial arts skills like your father."

Xiao Xuanchen spoke at this time, "What the Queen said is very true."

The one-year-old birthday party ended like this, and Zheng Xiyan took her son back to Weiyang Palace.

After returning to Weiyang Palace, Zheng Xiyan hugged her son and kissed him again and again, smiling and saying, "Ji'er, you were really great today."

"Your Majesty is right. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so intelligent. He will definitely be an excellent crown prince in the future." Biluo agreed with a smile.

Zheng Xiyan smiled, "He is my son. He will definitely be an excellent crown prince, right?"

At this time, Princess Chengyang came to Weiyang Palace. Zi Rui walked in and said, "My lady, the princess is here."

"Please ask mother to come in quickly." Zheng Xiyan ordered hurriedly.

"Yes!"

Princess Chengyang looked very anxious, and hurried in, "Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen."

"Mother, please get up quickly."

Princess Chengyang gave her a look, and Zheng Xiyan immediately understood what she meant and ordered, "Biluo, let them all leave."

"Yes!"

Zheng Xiyan pulled her mother to sit down and put Xiao Chengji on the bed. Princess Chengyang teased him, "What a good boy."

"Jier, this is your grandmother." Zheng Xiyan said to him with a smile.

Xiao Chengji smiled at Princess Chengyang, and Princess Chengyang looked pleased, "You are smiling so happily."

"Mother! Why did you come here at this time?" Zheng Xiyan spoke. She knew that her mother must have something to say to her.

Princess Chengyang said directly, "Just now at the banquet, I noticed that the way Prince Xiang looked at you was not right."

Zheng Xiyan's expression changed slightly. Her mother noticed it. If someone else noticed something, then I'm afraid...

"The Prince of Xiang treats you like this, doesn't he... Mother remembers that when you came of age, there was a hairpin among the gifts sent by the Prince of Xiang's Mansion. At that time, I thought that the Princess of Xiang made a mistake and put it in accidentally. Now it seems..." Princess Chengyang's expression was very heavy.

"Moreover, he took the initiative to help Ji'er when he was appointed the crown prince. If these were discovered by someone with ulterior motives, it would bring us countless troubles." Princess Chengyang's face became increasingly heavy.

"It was his wishful thinking. I only found out about it not long ago." Zheng Xiyan's face was solemn and her expression was quite helpless.

"Mother, I also know the seriousness of this matter, but...but what should I do now?" Zheng Xiyan was very panicked. If this happened, she would be in an irretrievable situation.

"Don't panic." Princess Chengyang grabbed her hand.

Princess Chengyang comforted her, "You don't need to worry about this matter. It's not your turn to come forward. Leave everything to your mother. There are also your father and your grandfather. Don't panic."

"What mother said is true. I have explained it to him before and drawn a clear line between us, but he obviously didn't listen." Zheng Xiyan is very annoyed now.

"Have you met in private?" Princess Chengyang's face darkened.

"Ah."

"Everyone says that the Prince of Xiang and his wife are in perfect harmony, that none of the concubines in the palace are favored, and that his two children are also born to the Princess of Xiang. But in the end, no one would have thought that all of this was just an illusion, and that he actually had feelings for you."

"But maybe we can also use him." Princess Chengyang's eyes changed and she thought of something.

Zheng Xiyan also thought that maybe she could get his help, but once this matter was discovered, she, Ji'er, and everyone in the Duke's Mansion and the Prince of Chu's Mansion would be implicated.

"Mother, you can't do that." Zheng Xiyan hurriedly stopped her.

"I know what you are worried about. It is not easy for you to come forward, but our Zhengguo Mansion and Chuwang Mansion can do it. Don't worry." Princess Chengyang patted her hands gently, looking confident.

"The prince's performance today has made many ministers very satisfied with him. The prince is still young, and he has a long life ahead of him. The most important thing for you right now is to train him well. Leave the rest to your mother." Princess Chengyang said with a firm look.

"Okay, I will listen to my mother."

Princess Chengyang did not stay long and then left Weiyang Palace.

In the Zichen Palace, when Xiao Xuanchen came back, the expression on his face was very ugly.

He recalled everything that happened in the Zichen Palace today. The moment Xiao Chengji walked up to him and grabbed the string of his jade pendant, even though his eyes were innocent and his expression was childish, he still vaguely felt a threat.

Xiao Xuanchen held the jade pendant in his hand and stared at it closely. This jade pendant with the dragon pattern on it could only be worn by the emperor. Even though Xiao Chengji was his son, the crown prince he personally appointed, and even though he was still young and knew nothing, he still felt threatened.

Xiao Xuanchen looked at the jade pendant carefully with a frighteningly cold look in his eyes. The eunuch standing beside him could feel the chill emanating from him and did not dare to make a sound.
