Would they rge? Or not rge?
"They definitely won't rge!" Xiaoyao said indifferently. Although he knew that even non-relatives might mix together - this kind of thing couldn't count. At the sa ti, even if they were relatives, there was a chance they might not rge together. This also depended on probability.
Xiaoyao felt this probability shouldn't be encountered, otherwise he wouldn't be able to distance himself from this Eldest Princess. This was sothing Xiaoyao didn't want to happen.
However, sotis things you don't want to happen just happen. Even if the probability is very low, it's still possible. Moreover, this probability wasn't too low.
"They rged!"
"Damn!"
When the two people's blood first t, they quickly rged together. This made Xiaoyao curse silently, while the Eldest Princess happily exclaid.
"They really rged! This Xiaoyao might really be Princess Zhuyue's child."
...
...
"Even if he's not, he might be related to the royal family. Otherwise, how could he be so similar to Princess Zhuyue?"
"Yes, yes..."
Suddenly, the entire great hall was in chaos. Xiaoyao believed that if this matter wasn't clarified, he would beco the focus of the entire city tomorrow - a lost royal family mber appearing.
"What do you have to say now? I said I'm your elder - call Imperial Aunt." The Eldest Princess said with a smile and released Xiaoyao. She had achieved her purpose and wouldn't keep grabbing him.
After regaining his freedom, Xiaoyao imdiately used a towel from a nearby maidservant to wipe his face clean and restore his hairstyle. He had no hobby of dressing as a woman.
"First, let tell you sothing. This kind of blood recognition test only confirms whether two people have a parent-child relationship. If they can't rge, they're definitely not related. If they can rge, they might be related, but it's not absolute. This doesn't count!" Xiaoyao explained.
"Second, you and I are not mother and son!"
"But we've already rged. This at least shows we might have a blood relationship. And you look so much like Zhuyue - this can't be such a coincidence!" The Eldest Princess didn't care about Xiaoyao's protests and still insisted on what she believed.
"This really doesn't count. If you don't believe it, we can have everyone present try it - there will definitely be many people who can rge." Xiaoyao said helplessly. He felt that even if this matter was proven false, this Eldest Princess wouldn't care.
Sure enough, the Eldest Princess shook her head and said, "I don't care about other things. I only know you look like Zhuyue, and your blood can rge with mine, so you're my little nephew."
"Sister, don't be so certain,"
"Call Imperial Aunt! Don't be so disrespectful,"
"Your Majesty, won't you do sothing about this?" Xiaoyao could only ask Ning Zhiyuan to intervene.
"Xiaoyao, I also think there's sothing to this matter. Why don't you tell us about your background so we can verify it?" Ning Zhiyuan frowned. His words clearly showed he thought Xiaoyao might be Zhuyue's child, or believed Xiaoyao was a lost mber of the Tang royal family.
"I'm an orphan. When the Mo family head found , I was still about three months old. I had only this jade pendant on , with two clear characters - 'Xiaoyao' which is where my na cos from!" Xiaoyao took out a jade pendant from his neck, one he had worn since childhood.
"This jade pendant... I've never seen it before. Imperial Sister, have you seen it?" Ning Zhiyuan frowned. He couldn't get any clues from Xiaoyao's jade pendant.
"No. This jade pendant has very ordinary jade quality and average craftsmanship. It shouldn't be a royal family item. Zhuyue shouldn't have had one, unless... it was Jiang Donglai's! Yes, it should be Jiang Donglai's." Although the Eldest Princess couldn't confirm anything from the jade pendant clue, she forcibly found an original owner for it - Jiang Donglai, the guard who was with Zhuyue.
Thus, Xiaoyao seed even more likely to be Zhuyue's descendant.
"Stop! Actually, I also want to know whose... seed I am." This kid really had quite a personality - who talks about themselves like this?
"Now we just need to confirm one thing, did Princess Zhuyue die twenty years ago, or did she leave!" Xiaoyao said. "Can you let go see her?"
"How would you see her? You want to enter the imperial mausoleum and open the coffin for examination?" Ning Zhiyuan imdiately understood Xiaoyao's idea. "No, absolutely not! Not to ntion whether you're actually royal family is still unknown, even if you were, the imperial mausoleum can't be entered casually. Opening coffins for examination is disrespectful to Zhuyue! If Zhuyue really didn't die, that would be one thing, but what if she really did die?"
"If you want to confirm this matter, you must go take a look. If you're unwilling, that's fine too. Actually, I don't really want to know this answer. Who my parents are hasn't been important to for a long ti," Xiaoyao said indifferently. "Anyway, I already have my life, and I don't want to change anything. Maybe this is better."
"Xiaoyao, you need to change. You can't be a servant. From now on, Imperial Aunt will take care of you," At this mont, the Eldest Princess seed to think Xiaoyao was very pitiful and imdiately showed a loving expression.
"Your Highness the Eldest Princess, please don't speak carelessly. Before everything is settled, we still have no relationship," Xiaoyao said. He wasn't the type who liked to curry favor with royalty.
Truly a miraculous servant - only he would not care about royal status. How many people in the world wanted to establish connections with the Tang royal family, yet he could completely refuse and even felt sowhat repulsed.
If this matter got out, it would definitely cause a group of people to curse him, calling Xiaoyao too stupid for not wanting such an opportunity.
But because of this, Ning Zhiyuan found Xiaoyao increasingly interesting. If Xiaoyao really was Zhuyue's descendant, he would be very happy about this, because he quite liked Xiaoyao's personality.
Soone like Xiaoyao was clearly not a person who fought for power and profit. He wouldn't interfere with his princes' positions. Moreover, Xiaoyao had excellent dical skills and good relationships with the Le family and Lanruo Temple. No matter which point, it was all benefit and no harm to him.
Most importantly, he felt that if Xiaoyao could stay, it would be better for the Eldest Princess's condition. Maybe he could cure the Eldest Princess's illness. Then the royal family would have another peerless expert as backing.
The current Eldest Princess couldn't be considered backing, because she might suddenly beco another person who paid no attention to the royal family.
"I don't care how things are. You look like Zhuyue, so I'll treat you as Zhuyue's child!" The Eldest Princess had a simple view of this matter. She actually never planned to care about other things from the beginning. She was convinced that Xiaoyao was Zhuyue's child, her nephew.
"..." Xiaoyao had a headache, because he knew that when a crazy person was convinced of sothing, even if it was clearly impossible, she would still treat it as the absolute truth.
"Damn, you're forcing this on , aren't you!" Xiaoyao said angrily.
"Young man, is that how you make analogies?" The Eldest Princess knocked Xiaoyao once and said irritably.
"Please don't make such intimate gestures. You and I aren't very familiar." Xiaoyao was sowhat helpless. He felt this might be pointless resistance.
"Once is unfamiliar, twice is familiar. Co, Imperial Aunt will show you around the imperial palace while I'm still lucid these two days." The Eldest Princess said. "Also, when I have an episode, you stay far away from . I'm afraid I might hurt you."
From the Eldest Princess's words, she really liked Xiaoyao very much. Perhaps this was fate, or perhaps it was simply because Xiaoyao looked like Princess Zhuyue.
Because of this, Ning Zhiyuan had to acknowledge Xiaoyao's temporary status, even if just as a godson the Eldest Princess had recognized. Just because of the Eldest Princess's relationship, Xiaoyao's status could be said to have increased a hundredfold. Everyone present would treat Xiaoyao with great respect.
This was sothing many people wanted and envied, but for Xiaoyao, it wasn't a good thing, because this would only bring him trouble without any benefit.
But now that things had reached this point, Xiaoyao could only choose to temporarily accept it. Anyway, this matter should pass quickly. This Eldest Princess would only be lucid for two days, then the previous personality would appear. At that ti, that personality wouldn't recognize him, and he could leave. How could she know where he went then?
"Can I say I need to go hand over my duties first?" Xiaoyao asked weakly. In the current situation, he was clearly in the disadvantaged group.
"Hand over duties? What?"
"I have a job at the Imperial Library. Did you forget? I originally ca to deliver books to you and got caught by you, Originally, today was my last day here..." Xiaoyao said helplessly. If he could choose, he definitely wouldn't have taken that task.
"This is destiny - we were destined to recognize each other!" The Eldest Princess said with a smile.
"Let's talk about it after it's confird! Your Majesty, could you please not let this matter spread? This has no benefit for either of us. It's best to wait until things are investigated clearly." Xiaoyao requested of Ning Zhiyuan. He didn't want this matter to get out, as it would beco very, very troubleso.
Of course, he knew so people would definitely find out - that couldn't be avoided. But so people could be prevented from knowing. Now he wanted to avoid as many as possible!
At this ti, he prayed that he had no relationship with Zhuyue.
If people knew Xiaoyao's thoughts, they would all be speechless. They really wanted to say: If you don't want this opportunity, give it to us - this is such a waste!
"I'll handle this matter. You just accompany your Imperial Aunt around for now." Ning Zhiyuan said with a smile. When he said "Imperial Aunt," he felt the words ca quite naturally. Seeing Xiaoyao's face beco pained, he found this matter even more interesting.
