Need for Highness, Enchanting Concubine

Chapter 228
"If my cousin escaped, why didn't you go back to the imperial capital?" Shen Jingyi asked anxiously.

Shen Tianche said quietly: "Maybe it's because you want to go back but you can't?"

There are many possibilities for Nan Ruan not to be able to return to the imperial capital!
Shen Tianche also told Shen Jingyi all about how Feng Wang picked up Feng Nanxi back then.

Shen Jingyi frowned and said: "There is indeed a kind of herb in Canglong Mountain that Jingle needs, and it is normal for him to go there, but why did my cousin go there for no reason?"

It's not the same way at all!

I am afraid that this question can only be known by asking the person concerned.

"Why didn't Xi'er come into the palace with you?" When Shen Jingyi thought of his cousin's daughter living abroad for so many years, he felt very distressed.

Based on that appearance and temperament, Shen Jingyi was convinced that Feng Nanxi was Nan Ruan's daughter even without a blood test. Most of the people who were close to Nan Ruan back then would be as convinced as Shen Jingyi if they knew about this.

"Xi'er has always been very concerned about her life experience. After she found out this time, her heart was very confused. It was Erchen who asked her to rest in the mansion!" Shen Tianche said softly.

Shen Jingyi suddenly said: "Yes, yes, even I am like this, let alone her!"

Looking at his son, Shen Jingyi didn't care about the title for a while, and directly used the word "I" to address himself.

"It's lucky to have Jingle, otherwise that child Xi'er..." Shen Jingyi sighed.

If her imperial brother hadn't gone there, Xi'er would not have survived.

When Shen Jingyi thought of this, he felt sorry for Feng Nanxi, but at the same time, he also felt sorry for his stubborn brother. That Canglong Mountain was famous for its steepness and steepness. It will be dangerous, presumably he must have gone alone without telling Lianman and others, this emperor brother, he is really stubborn enough, even if he is outside the gate of the imperial capital, he will never step in and tell himself His family said, from childhood to adulthood, no matter what, he chose to carry it by himself, and buried all the hardships and tiredness in his heart.

Changing his sad expression, Shen Jingyi said to the eunuch next to him with sharp eyes: "Let someone tell Jiang Yi to enter the palace!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The eunuch also knew that the Emperor attached great importance to this matter, so he was still slack for a while, and hurried out to spread the word.

Jiang Yi is the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment.

"Father, I don't want this matter to hurt Xi'er in the slightest!" Shen Tianche raised his eyes and said resolutely to Shen Jingyi.

Looking at his son's eyes, Shen Jingyi also understood that Feng Nanxi's position in his son's heart might have surpassed that of his father.

It turns out that everything is destined in the dark.

Shen Jingyi stood up and promised: "Che'er, don't worry, the emperor will never let anyone hurt my daughter-in-law, not even a hair!"

Shen Tianche liked the royal father who spoke like this.

Before Jiang Yi entered the palace, Shen Tianche took Ruan Shou back to the Prince's Mansion.

When Jiang Yi heard the emperor said that he would re-investigate what happened to Princess Leng, he was also very puzzled. Later, under the emperor's angry words, he realized that there was still such a secret back then, and he felt pressure for a moment very big.

The emperor asked him to investigate in person, which shows that the emperor attaches great importance to this matter, and he must not be perfunctory in the slightest.

Who is the former Princess Leng? She is Prince Leng's first wife, Prince Leng's mother, the Empress Dowager's niece, the Emperor's cousin, or the current Princess Leng's sister!

Just thinking about it, Jiang Yi couldn't help sweating on his forehead.

Not to mention, the emperor also said that Lord Fengzhu, the princess concubine, is very likely to be Nan Ruan's biological daughter.

With that said, Jiang Yi felt even more that a big rock was on his head.

After seeing Jiang Yi, Shen Jingyi strode to the Queen Mother's bedroom.

The Empress Dowager always went to bed very early, just after she fell asleep, she heard Nanny Jing say that the emperor was here, and the Emperor would not come to her at this hour for no reason, the Empress Dowager's first reaction was that something must be up, so she asked Nanny Jing to wait for her to get up.

After putting on a thick coat, she wanted to go out to meet the emperor.

Shen Jingyi had already walked in, stepped forward to support the queen mother, and said apologetically: "It's so late, it's really a sin for me to disturb your mother's rest. It's just that today's incident, I think I should tell my mother sooner. Well, the queen mother must also want to hear it!"

While speaking, Shen Jingyi had already helped the Queen Mother back into the bedroom.

Seeing the Emperor's expression, the Empress Dowager also knew that what he was going to say must be of great importance, so she signaled Madam Jing to go down with a group of palace servants.

When only their mother and son were left in the hall, Shen Jingyi helped the Queen Mother onto the soft couch, and said softly: "Mother, after you hear this, don't get excited!"

"Emperor, what are you going to say? Why are you so nervous, making the queen mother also nervous!" the queen mother said suspiciously.

Shen Jingyi took a deep breath and said, "It's about Ruan'er!"

It’s been a long time since the word Ruan’er has been mentioned behind the queen mother. It’s been so long that even the queen mother almost forgot how long she hadn’t seen that person who always had a smile. Happy girl.

The Empress Dowager held Shen Jingyi's hand involuntarily, "What about Ruan'er?"

Anyway, she has already heard the worst news, so what is there to be afraid of now!
Shen Jingyi told the Queen Mother everything in detail without missing a single word.

The Empress Dowager's expression also fluctuated one after another, angry and happy, and finally tears of excitement remained.

"Mother, don't be sad!" Shen Jingyi had seen his mother cry no more than five times in his life, and when he saw her mother cry, he was also flustered and at a loss for what to do.

Even though the queen mother was very opposed to his marriage with Ye Lan, even if the queen mother never liked Ye Lan or Shen Tianche, the queen mother was still his biological mother, a mother who would give everything for him, and he knew that Nan Xuan gave up a lot and endured a lot for his son, so he never blamed the Queen Mother.

Nan Xuan hurriedly grabbed Shen Jingyi's hand, choked up and said, "I want to see Xi'er, my poor child..."

Like Shen Jingyi, the Queen Mother never doubted Feng Nanxi's identity.

Shen Jingyi comforted: "Mother, it's too late now, besides, the most difficult to accept this matter should be Xi'er herself. Wouldn't it be more sad for her to see how excited you are now? Let her Be quiet for a while, always give the child a time to accept it!"

"Yes, yes, the queen mother is too anxious!" The queen mother nodded.
