Chapter 1932: Chapter 962: Family Reunion (Part 2)
After Shangguan Qing returned to the Yan Country, Shangguan Yun conferred him as the crown prince.
The common people had never seen the forr crown grandson, nor did they know of the change in appearance, so they had no doubts about this royal edict.
As for those who had seen him, his enemies like Gongsun Yu were already dead, and those who were on his side, like Wei Renchong and others, were loyal to the Xuanyuan Family. They would not spread news detrintal to Shangguan Qing.
Regarding Qingfeng Taoist priest and Wang Xu, the forr was face-blind and couldn’t rember appearances, while to the latter, Shangguan Qing chose to tell the truth.
“… This is the general course of things. My mother was also worried that my identity as not of royal blood would be exposed, and the National Master Hall wouldn’t treat , hence she let take on my brother’s face,” Shangguan Qing said, lying on the canopy boat at Taiye Pool in the Imperial Palace, looking up at the starry sky.
Wang Xu sat beside him, his mind unable to calm down for a long ti after hearing the whole truth: “So… the crown grandson I saw at the National Master Hall earlier, was not you?”
Shangguan Qing, with a blade of dog-tail grass in his mouth, said unconcernedly: “It was my brother.”
Wang Xu suddenly stood up, his movent causing the entire boat to jolt, and Shangguan Qing looked at him completely taken aback.
He said hurtfully: “How could you do this!”
“Hmm?” Shangguan Qing was stunned, acknowledging that hiding the truth from him was indeed his fault…
Wang Xu said distressedly: “You betrayed ! You told our secret code to your brother!”
Shangguan Qing: Uh… so that’s your main concern?
“I…” he wanted to say that he hadn’t told, that all the codes were guessed by his brother anyway, and besides, these were not just his and Wang Xu’s secrets, he had learned them from the National Master and couldn’t guarantee that the National Master hadn’t told others either.
He looked sheepishly at Wang Xu: “Old Wang…”
“You’ve changed.” Wang Xu tightly clenched his fists, turning his face away hurtfully, “You used to call Old Wang from next door!”
Shangguan Qing: “…”
…
Old Wang was too hard to appease. After landing from Taiye Pool, Shangguan Qing felt seriously exhausted, he didn’t even want to walk, ordered the palace maids to bring a palanquin, and he was carried to Fenglin Palace.
In Yan Country, an adult prince must leave the palace and establish a residence elsewhere. This was the old ancestor’s rule and also to avoid suspicion with the concubines of the Imperial Harem.
However, now that all the beauties in the Imperial Harem were n, what was Shangguan Qing avoiding for?
He stayed in the palace.
He planned to first pay respect to his mother and incidentally grab a late-night snack.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered Shangguan Yun’s Sleeping Palace, he slled a burst of milky fragrance and then heard a series of soft baby murmurs.
“Hmm?”
He furrowed his brow and walked towards the inner hall strangely.
He saw his mother sitting on a bright yellow Dragon Bed, holding a baby in her arms, feeding with a bottle, while Ye Qing sat on a stool at the bedside, also holding a baby and feeding with a bottle.
He bristled with fear!
Not possible?
I just went out for a little while, and mother, you’ve already made a family of four with Ye Qing!
You put aside all those beauties in the Imperial Harem, turns out you prefer Ye Qing!
It’s undeniable that in this regard, mother and son think exactly alike.
“Mother?”
His voice trembled with fear.
Shangguan Yun smiled at him: “Co over, et your little nephew and little niece.”
So they weren’t siblings but nephews and nieces.
He let out a huge sigh of relief, almost thinking that Ye Qing was about to beco his father.
His little nephew and little niece were just the dragon and phoenix twins of his stinky brother.
He strode over excitedly and asked: “Has stinky brother co?”
Shangguan Yun repeated Ye Qing’s words verbatim: “No, just the two of them ca.”
Shangguan Qing: “…”
…
The dragon and phoenix twins began their life as the darlings of the Dayan Imperial Palace, and Shangguan Yun wouldn’t let her pair of little grandchildren suffer.
The next day she brought the dragon and phoenix twins to court, announcing publicly that she had recently found the long-lost second prince, Shangguan Hen, conferring the second prince’s son as Yongle Little Prince and the second prince’s daughter as Kangning Little Princess.
Dayan welcod the dragon and phoenix royal grandchildren, celebrating throughout the empire.
Thus, even before their father enjoyed a single day of prince treatnt, the dragon and phoenix twins had already beco much-cherished royal grandchildren.
Gu Jiao and Xiao Hen’s group arrived in Shengdu at the end of June. Due to bad weather, the journey that was supposed to take just a month and a half stretched into two and a half months.
When Wu Sixi went to the Palace Gate to greet the second prince and the young commander, he almost didn’t recognize them.
