Chapter 27

"Huh?" Xiao Lingyue turned to look at the old Marquis.

The old Marquis stared at Han Han's face with his eyes wide open, too nervous to speak.

This child... looks so much like His Royal Highness King Yi!

These eyebrows, these facial features, this outline...

Even when he looks angry, he seems to be carved out of the same mold as His Highness King Yi.

When His Royal Highness Prince Yi got married, the princess-to-be committed suicide by cutting her wrists in a sedan chair, and then disappeared without a trace, becoming a major unsolved case in the capital.

There are rumors among the people that the princess-to-be has run away from marriage and eloped.

Some say she is dead.

There are even rumors that His Highness King Yi killed her.

The rumors got out of hand, and in the end even His Majesty was alarmed. He issued an edict to ban the discussion, and finally managed to stop the public opinion.

What is even more unexpected is that nine months later, His Highness King Yi suddenly took back a child!

He did not say who the biological mother of the child was. He only asked for the decree to establish the heir apparent, and then never mentioned the matter of marrying a wife again.

Your Majesty has nothing to do with him.

Regarding the mystery of the youngest prince's biological mother, important officials in the court also speculated a lot.

Some people suspect that the young prince was born to the missing Princess Yi, because the timing is just right.

However, the young prince looks nothing like the Xiao family, and his relationship with the Xiao family is not close.

Some people also suspect that the biological mother of the young prince is unknown, and maybe he is an illegitimate child.

There are rumors that King Yi once had a relationship with a girl when he was leading troops in his early years. He even disobeyed His Majesty because of her and threatened not to marry her.

Later, I don’t know what happened, but the girl disappeared inexplicably, and King Yi also felt depressed for a long time.

It was during this period that he was accidentally plotted by the eldest daughter of the Xiao family and ruined her reputation.

Miss Xiao cried and insisted on marrying him, and even sought death in the palace. His Majesty considered various factors and finally decreed the marriage.

"What does Grandpa want to ask?" Xiao Lingyue said coldly, interrupting the old Marquis' thoughts.

The old Marquis' voice was tight: "This child...he, who is his father?"

Xiao Lingyue raised her eyebrows slightly but said nothing.

"Are you asking me?" Han Han tilted his head and looked at him, puzzled: "Why do you ask about such an obvious thing? Have you seen my face?"

The old Marquis didn't know how to answer.

"Looking at my face, don't you think it looks familiar?"

Han Han said confidently: "My imperial grandfather and several imperial uncles said that I look exactly like my father. Uncle Xiang also said before that I am much cuter than my father!"

King Xiang: "..."

The prince raised his lips slightly.

"Second brother, are you crazy?" King Cheng lowered his voice, "What did you secretly tell Hanhan?"

King Xiang was about to cry but had no tears: "I'm not, I didn't..."

Is it too late for him to deny it now? How could he have such a deceitful nephew?

Imperial Grandfather, Uncle Xiang Wang...

Hearing this kind of address, the old Marquis felt a thump in his heart, like a heavy stone falling to the ground.

Shen Yuting trembled: "You, you call His Highness Prince Xiang uncle?"

Hanhan turned to look at her and suddenly sneered: "You just called me and Beibei bastards, right?"

"No...no no! I, I just..." Shen Yuting was so frightened that she couldn't finish her words and shook her head in fear.

What was the identity of the child who could call Prince Xiang uncle? She could guess it with her toes.

The old Marquis had a premonition that something bad was going to happen: "Young Master, this matter..." Popular 『』
