When the eldest prince heard this, he was shocked. He had never expected that Empress Xiaoxian was such a person. He had vague suspicions before, but had no evidence. Now the murderer of his mother is dead, and his father misses her day and night, and the funeral was held with such a grand ceremony, which shows the status of Empress Xiaoxian in his father's heart.

What should he do?

Seeing that the eldest prince looked sad and worried about this matter, Jin Yuyan took the opportunity to say that she would leave first.

Only the eldest prince was left in the palace, going crazy for his dead mother.

*Jin Yuyan used the mother, whom the eldest prince cared about the most, to harm him. Yonghuang couldn't help but feel angry and nervous. However, he was sad in the middle of the night and thought of what Yanwan said to him today.

Don't believe rumors.

When Yonghuang was in the palace, he would secretly come to Anhua Hall to pray for his mother on the birthday and death anniversary of Imperial Noble Consort Zhemin. How come he had never seen Concubine Jia before?

Now that Empress Xiaoxian is dead and the Empress's legitimate son is no longer around, Yonghuang is now qualified to inherit the throne after the Emperor finally praises him.

But at this time, on his mother's birthday, when he was bound to come to Anhua Hall to worship, Yonghuang happened to run into Jiapin who mentioned the person who harmed his mother.

Is this a real coincidence, or did someone do it on purpose?

Yonghuang was so confused that he could no longer tell who was right and who was wrong.

But there is a simple way to solve it.

*The next day, Yongshou Palace.

Yonghuang came to visit Concubine Yan again, only to see that Yanwan was still in mourning clothes, which looked beautiful even in plain clothes. When she saw Yonghuang, she felt a little confused.

Then Yonghuang's face was filled with grief. He glanced at the palace servants, and Yanwan asked the ordinary palace maids and eunuchs to go out to serve, leaving only Chunchan and Wang Chan inside.

Yonghuang was still a little worried, and Yanwan smiled and said, "Don't worry, Chunchan and Wangchan are not outsiders."

Besides, she would not be alone with an adult prince. If someone found out and started gossiping, it would cause unnecessary trouble.

There is another thing, if Jinzhong knew about it.

I’m afraid that his petty mind will be so angry that he might not even allow male mosquitoes to fly near Yan Wan.

Although he said he didn't care, if Yan Wan looked at a guard a little too much during the day, Jin Zhong would bite her shoulder viciously at night, leaving a row of shallow teeth marks on her body.

In fact, what Yanwan didn’t know was that this was her reaction after Jinzhong had comforted her.

Jinzhong knew that Yanwan had feelings for him, but she just glanced at someone else, so what?

Can anyone else make Master Ling so happy?

Jinzhong thought so in his mind, but he felt sour in his heart. He decided to punish Ling Zhuer severely for being so distracted. He was right next to her, but Ling Zhuer actually looked at someone else.

Besides, when he looked at the man, he was very ordinary, with two big dark circles under his eyes, nothing good to look at.

Not as good-looking as him.

Jinzhong worked even harder until Yanwan's face turned red and tears rolled down her eyes.

He wiped her tears with his tongue and kept kissing her, saying, "My dear, who do you like best?"

Yan Wan chuckled softly, and slid her hand down Jin Zhong's Adam's apple to his chin. With a dazzling charm in her eyes, she said, "Of course it's you."

Jinzhong pulled up the corners of his mouth and smiled, and Yanwan reached out and touched the red bead on his Adam's apple.

This mean guy didn't forget to wear his hat at this time.

One of them was disheveled, while the other wore his hat neatly.

Yanwan skillfully unbuttoned his Adam's apple with one hand, and threw the hat that seemed to be embedded in Jinzhong's body to the ground beside her.

Jinzhong smiled even more deeply and said, "Since Master Ling likes me the most, I must repay my master's appreciation and not slack off."

He lowered his head, and the two of them huddled together again.

Yanwan's thoughts fell back on Yonghuang. Whenever she thought of Jinzhong, she always smiled unconsciously.

Seeing her gentle expression, the eldest prince felt a little relieved. He had not been in contact with Yan Wan for a long time, and he didn't know if this person had changed his personality. She could still smile like this, probably still as gentle as before.

Moreover, Imperial Concubine Ling had no son and had no reason to harm him. The eldest prince made up his mind and told her what Concubine Jia had told him last night, that Empress Xiaoxian had killed his mother.

Yan Wan looked a little surprised and said, "I have never heard of this. I didn't expect Jiapin to know such a secret."

She only found out today that it was Jin Yuyan who caused the eldest prince to be disliked by the emperor and die of depression in the previous life.

The eldest prince was confused, and he said, "I don't know if this is true or not. I will remember the reminder from Concubine Ling yesterday and I dare not forget it."

"I would like to ask the Imperial Concubine Ling to show me a clear way out." The eldest prince looked respectful and polite. Only the Queen was worthy of him calling herself a son. He was willing to act like a child for this purpose, in order to flatter Yan Wan and surely become the Empress.

Yan Wan raised her eyes and said calmly, "Big Brother, you should be careful about your behavior."

Yonghuang nodded and said hesitantly, "I overstepped the bounds."

Yan Wan sighed, shook her head gently, and said, "I don't know whether this is true or not, but there is one person who will know."

Yonghuang raised his head with joy, and heard Yanwan say again, "That's the emperor." The joy on his face instantly turned into embarrassment.

"How can I ask the Emperor about such things?" Yonghuang really wanted to get the Emperor's approval, so he was unwilling to ask such questions. What if he made the Emperor unhappy?

Yan Wan said, "Your mother has a special affection for the emperor. The emperor misses Imperial Noble Consort Zhemin very much. You are her only son and the emperor's eldest son."

"In the emperor's heart, your position is naturally different. No matter how old you are, you will always be his son to the emperor."

"I suddenly heard such rumors. Because of your filial piety and respect for Empress Xiaoxian, I was afraid, so I asked your closest father, the Emperor." Yan Wan smiled and picked up the teacup.

"Do you think the Emperor will blame you?"

Seeing the realization on Yonghuang's face, Yanwan smiled and took a sip of tea.

The eldest prince hurriedly said with gratitude, "Thank you, Concubine Ling." Then he left in a hurry.

The smile on Yanwan's face faded and she put the teacup back on the table.

Chunchan rolled her eyes and asked, "Master, why do we need to remind the eldest prince? He is the eldest son. If you have a prince in the future, I am afraid there will be more competition. Why don't we push him away and just abolish him directly?"

Yan Wan raised her lips and said slowly, "He insisted on asking the reason. Although it made the emperor feel that the father and son had a deep affection, it was too reckless and not smart enough."
