Male supporting role is not a stepping stone

"Your Highness, Miss Rong is here."

Just after reading the memory of the original owner, the palace maid's report came from outside the house, and Yang Yan said calmly: "Pass."

To be honest, he didn't understand the heroine very well. Since he had such a great opportunity to be reborn, why didn't he tell the prince what he knew in advance and let him take precautions to prevent the second prince from gaining strength and attacking the palace in the future?

After all, the prince is the real backing of the Rong family. As long as he does not fall, the Rong family will be almost invincible.

As a member of the Rong family and the prince's direct cousin, with such great achievements, Rong Yinhua's status is as stable as a mountain.

As long as she does not commit an unforgivable crime, Shaoyangyan's temperament will definitely protect her from a life of prosperity and wealth.

But what Rong Yinhua chose was to kill the little palace maid, take her place, capture the second prince's affection, and then act as a spy for him to get a lot of information from Shaoyang Yan.

In the end, relying on the prince's trust, he was led into a trap and easily killed.

The story originally ended abruptly after the second prince ascended the throne and held a grand wedding to marry Rong Yinhua. It seemed to have a happy ending, but Yang Yan always felt that everything would not end so easily. After all, the story between the Rong family and the second prince Shaoyang There is a blood feud between the two countries.

When Emperor Zhengrui first came to the throne, he asked the court to establish a prince. His first wife died early and left no son and a half daughters. At that time, the only two people who gave birth to a prince were Concubine Rong Guifei and Concubine Xiao Guifei.

Although Shaoyang Yan was one month older, Shaoyang Ji's mother concubine Xiao Guifei was more favored by the emperor, so his chances were greater. The Xiao family in the court also continued to build momentum for their mother and son.

Seeing that the matter was about to become a foregone conclusion, someone suddenly revealed that the Xiao family had colluded with the deposed prince of the previous dynasty, and there were both personal and material evidence.

The most taboo thing of Emperor Zhengrui was deposing the crown prince. In anger, he ransacked the Xiao family and exiled him. His favorite concubine Xiao Guifei was implicated and deprived of her title. She died of illness within two years.

The second prince was rejected by the emperor because of this. He was bullied and treated coldly in the palace since he was a child, and he grew up like a weed.

It was the person in power of the Rong family who reported the incident and found the evidence. Not long after that, the emperor made Shaoyang Yan the crown prince, and his mother-in-law became the queen as a matter of course.

It can be said that the wealth of the Rong family for more than ten years was completely based on the bones of the Xiao family. Why did Rong Yinhua think that Shaoyangji would let the Rong family go after he came to power?

Could it be based on Shaoyang Ji's true love for her? But how long can a man's true love last?

If he knew that these were all calculated by Rong Yinhua, would his friendship still exist?

Yang Yan was very curious.

"Brother Prince!" Rong Yinhua was quickly ushered in. She had a sweet smile on her face and her words were extremely intimate. There was no hint that she was secretly planning to kill him.

She is now eighteen years old, but she is still unmarried. Because the second prince has been hiding his strength for so many years, everyone only thinks that he is a useless prince. And with the Rong family's current position, it is impossible to allow their own dignity. The legitimate daughter married a good-for-nothing.

Therefore, she did not dare to expose her true relationship with Shaoyangji, and told her family that she would only marry someone she truly liked. In fact, she had frequent contacts with him secretly, and was only waiting for him to marry her after he ascended the throne.

The Rong family originally did not allow her to act like this, but she went to the original owner and complained. Shaoyang Yan already loved her as a sister, so he personally came to talk to the head of the Rong family and promised to find a princess for her. , to win her the freedom to marry before the age of twenty.

Calculating it this way, Rong Yinhua really used the original owner thoroughly.

"Why are you here?" Yang Yan thought about what she had done, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Brother Prince, you are so cold!" Rong Yinhua pouted dissatisfiedly and said coquettishly, "Don't you want to see me?"

That's true! With such a beautiful snake, if he didn't use her to find out the second emperor's brother's next plan, how could he have the patience to give in to her?

Although the story is originally told from Rong Yinhua's perspective, she has no abilities and is really nothing to be afraid of. What Yang Yan really cares about is his second emperor brother.

Shaoyangji has been living in the cold palace with his mother and concubine since he was four years old. At the age of six, he lost his only support. He was bullied by the eunuchs and maids in the palace for many years. It was not until he was twelve years old that he was saved by the mercy of the original owner. Opportunity to study in the study room.

Such a powerless and helpless prince secretly accumulated so much power. Before the heroine was reborn, he stormed into the palace with his own strength, killed all his brothers and ascended to the throne. .

In any case, people dare not underestimate him. He even doubted whether Emperor Zhengrui's illness was his fault. After all, he was in his prime and had no warning before. The severe illness that led to his death in the past few days was really strange. .

There is only one month left before the emperor becomes seriously ill. If we can find out more about it, we may be able to avoid such an outcome.

Yang Yan was thinking in his heart, but a doting smile appeared on his face like the original owner usually said: "Gu was thinking about political affairs just now. It's just a matter of one sentence. You dare to accuse Gu An."

"Who told the prince to pamper me?" Rong Yinhua said proudly.

Yang Yan shook his head helplessly: "I'm not alone now."

"Yin'er is joking with you, please don't blame the prince brother." Rong Yinhua pretended to be afraid, but there was no trace of fear in his eyes.

She was sure that the person in front of her would not be serious with her. Who is the most wise and wise prince in this dynasty? He is nothing more than a useless man. In his last life, his brother Yang Ji took away the throne, and in this life, she also held him in her hands and played around with him.

Thinking of this, Rong Yinhua couldn't help but reveal a trace of contempt in her eyes. The emotion just flashed past. In the blink of an eye, she returned to her charming and innocent look. If Yang Yan hadn't been paying attention to her expression, she might have become like the original owner. Still ignoring the past.

"Do I dare to blame you?" He laughed. "I don't want to see you turn around and go to complain to your mother, causing trouble for me."

"Brother Prince, it's okay to be afraid!" Rong Yinhua didn't feel ashamed, but felt proud and said, "My aunt loves me the most!"

It's a pity that the aunt who loved you so much was forced to commit suicide after Shaoyangji gained power, and she didn't see you begging for mercy on her behalf.

The coldness in Yang Yan's eyes flashed away, but he made a look on his face that said, "I'm really scared of you." "Okay, I still have business to deal with. Why don't you come to me?" Which piece of jewelry is not enough for you? Or is it that Zhuangzi you like? "

The heroine has really done this kind of thing before. She was used to spending a lot of money when she was a princess in her previous life. She refused to marry him in this life, so she was naturally very tight-lipped.

It's just that she, the legitimate daughter of the Rong family, doesn't have much money every month. She couldn't bear to let go of her expenses, so she turned her attention to her "ex-husband". Maybe in her mind, spending his money was natural?

As the prince, the original owner was never short of money, but he never cared about her coming to get benefits. The princess saw that her husband doted on this cousin and it was hard to say anything. As long as they were not ambiguous, a small amount of money would be considered as buying peace.

In this way, the heroine poached a lot of good things. Yang Yan did a rough calculation and found that the accumulated amount could be worth the tax revenue of a county for several years. After disposing of her, it was time to get the money back with interest.

"It's neither," Rong Yinhua didn't know that he was actually being mocked. She pulled his sleeve and said coquettishly, "The weather will get hotter in half a month. Brother Prince, then you can take me and Sister-in-law, nephew, and the others, how about going to the palace to escape the summer heat?"

Yang Yan recalled the memory of the original owner and found that this matter did not happen in the life before her rebirth, but she had proposed it like today after her rebirth.

She was afraid that she knew that Emperor Zhengrui was going to die in a month, so she transferred him in advance to pave the way for her lover. But she didn't know whether she made her own decision or was under the instruction of his good brother?

It's just that the original owner was a serious and responsible person. As the prince, he felt that he had a heavy responsibility, so he did not agree to her proposal. Instead, he spoke sternly and said that he should not be greedy for ease.

He was originally talking about himself, but Rong Yinhua mistakenly thought he was blaming her, so he lost his temper, and finally the two broke up on bad terms.

After Yang Yan pondered for a moment, he said: "The Crown Princess is about to give birth now, so it will be inconvenient for her to travel..."

A flash of jealousy flashed in Rong Yinhua's eyes. After she married this man in her previous life, she had never been pregnant for some reason. Although the imperial doctor diagnosed and treated her and said that there was nothing wrong with her body, she still couldn't get pregnant.

The emperor and the empress were afraid that he would lose the throne, so they quickly gave him two concubines and several concubines. Fortunately, they did not make any move, so they did not disgrace her as a princess.

After her rebirth, she firmly believed that this useless man couldn't have children, but the princess he married gave birth to a grandson in the second year after entering the family, and now she is about to give birth to a second child.

Although no one else knew it, she felt like she was being compared, which really made her very unhappy!

"Brother Prince, the idea has gone wrong," Rong Yinhua said quickly, "Pregnant women have high body temperatures and are most afraid of the heat. For the sake of my sister-in-law, you should also make plans."

Seeing that the man seemed to be moving, she continued to persuade: "Yin'er knows a good place to escape the summer heat. It's not far from the capital and only takes half a day's journey. The convoy will move slower by then, so my sister-in-law won't be tired. ”

"This..." Yang Yan hesitated, "Let's discuss this with the Crown Princess."

"Yin'er, go talk to your sister-in-law!" Rong Yinhua finally persuaded him. Fearing that something might happen, he quickly took over the important task, turned around and walked out, "If my sister-in-law also agrees, the prince brother can't remain silent. Believe it!”

"You girl, do you really want to go out and play?" Yang Yan said deliberately angrily.

"Yin'er is also doing your best, okay?" Rong Yinhua turned around and stuck out her tongue at him, "Brother Prince doesn't know the heart of a good person, hum!"

After saying that, she disappeared out the door.

For his own good? hehe. Yang Yan sneered in his heart.

***

Now that Emperor Zhengrui is in his prime, he single-handedly controls the government affairs. As the prince, Yang Yan actually does not have too many government affairs to deal with. He mostly listens to the government affairs in the court. After the court, he listens to the officials talking about politics, and occasionally You will get personal guidance from the emperor.

Today's political lecture has ended, and the remaining time is arranged by himself. The original owner suddenly had an inspiration and asked the palace maid to spread paper and grind it to write poems and paintings, but he was disturbed because his soul changed midway.

Yang Yan didn't feel that way now. After Rong Yinhua went to find the princess, he looked through the memorials from the courtiers and the emperor's reply. Although he had all the memories of the original owner, after all, he did not experience it in his new life. You need to get familiar with it and get a feel for it.

Soon, the palace maid sent to wait on the hostess came to report that the cousin had left the palace. He asked about the other party's expression at that time. The palace maid only thought that he cared about Miss Rong, and couldn't help feeling that she was in good luck. , said it truthfully.

Yang Yan learned that she left with a smile, and knew that she had probably persuaded the Crown Princess as she wished. This was not surprising to him. The heroine had a bad character and was not very smart, but she had a smooth tongue. But very neat.

Under the influence of the original owner, the Crown Princess also took good care of this cousin. She also used the banner of doing good for them, and it was not difficult to get her to agree either intentionally or unintentionally.

Now that the Crown Princess is seven months pregnant, Yang Yan is hesitant to tell her that there may be drastic changes in the future.

If she didn't say anything, he would be afraid that his protection would not be tight enough and she would accidentally fall into the trap of others.

To put it bluntly, this is a time when she is prone to overthinking. If she gets frightened and affects her body, it will not be a good thing.

After thinking about it again and again, Yang Yan still couldn't make up his mind, so he simply decided to go see her, talk a little bit, and see her reaction before making a decision.

After making the decision, he put down what he was doing and went to the princess's palace. Unexpectedly, he bumped into the eldest son of the original owner at the door who came to greet him.

"The son has met his father."

Xiaotuanzi Shao Chengyun is only three years old. He is as cute as Yuxue. He bows his hands in greetings solemnly. There is a special sense of joy in his little appearance.

Unexpectedly, the parents in the previous world who had been looking forward to raising a child for him had not been fulfilled, but in this world, a ready-made son had just arrived.

Although Yang Yan had nephews and nieces, maybe he seemed too strict in the last life. When they were young, they all ran away when they looked at him, and they were closer to their lively and cheerful uncle who could play with them, so there were not many Experience with children.

In the memory of the original owner, the eldest son was raised by the princess most of the time. He only asked about his daily life and study situation every day, and nothing else.

The father and son met indifferently, one said hello, and the other studied academically. The three-year-old child was already like a little scholar, completely different from the monkey-like appearance of his nephew and niece in his previous life.

Yang Yan was startled, and suddenly leaned over to pick him up. A child had never been treated like this before, and she subconsciously grabbed his collar, with a look of shock on her face.

"Come to pay your respects to mother?" Yang Yan asked knowingly, straightening the long hair on the side of his face.

"Yes, yes." Shao Chengyun replied in a hushed voice, with a very troubled expression on his face, "F-Father, this is against the rules."

"Where do you get so many rules?" Yang Yan flipped it up and said, "Well, why are you so gentle? Have you not eaten well recently?"

"My son has to eat well!" Xiao Chengyun quickly defended.

In fact, the original owner had never hugged him before. How could Yang Yan know whether he was too light or too heavy? Saying this is just to divert his attention.

No matter how mature he looked, Xiao Chengyun was only a three-year-old child. Sure enough, he immediately made him care about his weight. He tried desperately to recall what he had eaten in the past two days, and was carried into the hall by him without knowing it.

"His Royal Highness is here." Crown Princess Shi Xiayue was sitting by the window threading needlework, when she saw a trace of surprise in the eyes of the father and son.

The royal family is very particular about carrying grandchildren but not children. The prince used to be very strict about rules and had never carried a lucky child. What happened to him now?

Although she was a little puzzled, she wisely did not ask out loud, but directly called someone to pick up the emperor's grandson, saying that she did not want to tire the prince.

"Yun'er is so heavy, how can he be so tired that he is alone?" Yang Yan laughed, but did not let go. Instead, he held the child and sat opposite her, and said softly, "You are so heavy now, why do you do this yourself? Don't be tired. arrive."

"Thank you for your post," Shi Xiayue said. She was plump due to her pregnancy. She had two blushes on her face and looked very good. "I want to sew a small dress for my unborn grandson. Just one piece. I'm tired." Not enough.”

"Pay attention to yourself." Yang Yan said lightly. Although nothing could be seen on his face, he actually felt uncomfortable all over.

These are the wife and children of the original owner. After Shaoyang Yan's tragic death in his previous life, I don't know what the outcome is waiting for them. They are not mentioned in the novel later, but the queen was forced to commit suicide. I don't think their fate will be the same. good.

The original owner's wish is to protect the queen mother, wife and children, and let Rong Yinhua suffer the consequences. He will try his best to do it, but after all, he is not the original owner, so he can't take over his wife, right?

It’s so bald, he can’t do it!

I don’t know why, but he has no interest in human emotions at all. I wonder if the Crown Princess is willing to be his wife on the surface, but actually treat him as a partner?

Forget it, let's wait until Rong Yinhua and the second emperor's brother are dealt with, and after she gives birth to the child!

Yang Yan thought so and started teasing Xiao Chengyun.

Children are children, no matter how mature they appear on the surface, their admiration for their parents cannot be suppressed.

Under his careful guidance, little Chengyun soon became lively, eating like a father at a time, and was reluctantly taken down by his wet nurse to wash up until the meal was over.

"Your Highness, you are very different today." When there were only two people left in the room, Shi Xiayue looked at him with inquiring eyes.

"Today, my cousin proposed that we go to escape the summer heat together. I realized that I usually ignore you too much." Yang Yan had already thought of his words and said calmly at this time.

Shi Xiayue was just curious for a moment, but she didn't suspect that he was not the original owner because of such a small thing. Generally speaking, if there is no big difference, no one will think in that direction.

She hurriedly said, "Your Highness is busy with government affairs, and Yun'er and I know it."

"Yes! Yun'er is only three years old and knows that I am busy on weekdays. My cousin is already eighteen years old, but she still pesters me to go out and play. I don't know if my father will agree." Yang Yan said meaningfully.

Shi Xiayue was shocked and didn't understand what he meant for a moment. She forced a smile and said, "Yinhua has a childish temper."

"Not young anymore, if it were other girls of this age, they would have married and had children long ago. It's because I indulged her that she stayed until now." Yang Yan said again.

Shi Xiayue couldn't guess the purpose of his words, so she simply asked directly: "What does Your Highness mean?"

"I heard that my cousin has a lover," Yang Yan peeked at her face and said, "It's my second brother, Yang Ji."

"What?" Shi Xiayue was a little surprised and a little embarrassed. She thought that the prince suddenly mentioned that he intended to marry this cousin, but it turned out that she misunderstood.

Now that she thought about it carefully, she realized how ridiculous her thoughts were just now. With the status of the Rong family and the relationship with the prince, if he really had such thoughts, I'm afraid it wouldn't be her turn to be the crown princess, right?

I don't know why I was so stubborn and thought like that just now?

But she was also from a noble family, and she knew the thoughts of these noble families very well. She hesitated and said: "I'm afraid Lord Rong won't agree?"

As the emperor's closest blood, the second prince should be extremely noble, but he was disliked by the emperor, even the ordinary powerful and noble families could not compare to him. The powerful Rong family now naturally looked down on him.

"I heard about the dispute between the Rong family and the Xiao family. Doesn't Yinhua know about it?" Shi Xiayue thought of something again and asked.

"I don't know whether she knows or not, but the second prince probably knows." Yang Yan saw that she had thought of so many things in an instant, and her face was normal, so he was relieved and didn't mind revealing more.

"Your Highness means that the second prince deliberately approached Yinhua?" Shi Xiayue frowned slightly, "What does he want to do? Is he trying to take the opportunity to avenge the Xiao family and Concubine Xiao?"

But she couldn't figure out what role Rong Yinhua could play in it. Although she was the noble daughter of the Rong family, she was not that important compared to the entire Rong family.

"Shao Yangji may not be as simple as he seems on the surface, and Rong Yinhua should know about it." Yang Yan said.

This was the first time Shi Xiayue heard him call Rong Jianhua's name with her full name. In the past, he either called her cousin or called her "Yin'er" affectionately.

She understood immediately and said angrily: "Your Highness is so good to her, but she actually joined forces with outsiders to plot against you!"

"Then she probably invited you to escape the summer heat with bad intentions. Your Highness, did I reject her or play along with her?"

Seeing her so clear, Yang Yan was very satisfied and said: "Just pretend you don't know and make your travel preparations as usual."

"Yes, I understand." Shi Xiayue said worriedly, "If Your Highness has any other instructions, just tell me to do it. We are husband and wife, and only when Your Highness is good, I will be good."

"I really have something that only you can do." Yang Yan smiled when he heard it.

"Your Highness, just give me your instructions, and I will do my best!" Shi Xiayue assured very reliably.

"That is to take good care of yourself and our second child." Yang Yan said, "No matter what happens, put yourselves first. Can you do it?"

Shi Xiayue felt a little warm in her heart and said seriously: "Your Highness, don't worry, I will never hold you back and will definitely protect our child."

***

Tell the Crown Princess not to show any signs on her face, because Yang Yan didn't know whether there were spies planted by the second prince in the Crown Prince's Palace. Seeing that she really listened, he went back to his bedroom and slept peacefully. The next day, he appeared in the court in high spirits.

Emperor Zhengrui is only 44 years old now. In addition to him and Shao Yangji, who are adults, the third prince and the fourth prince are only about ten years old, so he is the only prince who attends the court.

As for Shao Yangji, both the emperor and the court officials ignored him.

Emperor Zhengrui was really cruel to him. If the original owner hadn't bumped into this second brother by accident and pleaded for him out of pity when he saw that he was still illiterate at the age of twelve, he might not have been able to enter the study room.

And six years ago, when Shao Yangji was just sixteen years old, the emperor couldn't wait to order him to leave the palace and build a mansion. He didn't have the title of a prince according to the rules, and he didn't give him many copies. He was only given the title of a prince, and the mansion he was given was still abandoned for several years.

Or the original owner couldn't bear it, so he ordered the Ministry of Works to send people to repair it, so that he didn't have to live in a leaky house as a prince.

So Shao Yangji really inherited their father's temperament. The original owner didn't say that what he did was a favor to him, but at least he didn't let him down. But he didn't show mercy to him in both lives and took his life coldly.

I wonder if the original owner regretted the help he extended at the beginning? Maybe if he hadn't been so nosy, Shao Yangji wouldn't have been able to lead troops to attack the palace?

And now Shao Yangji is 22 years old. On the surface, he has not achieved anything, and no one even mentions marriage.

When Yang Yan thought of this, a sly smile suddenly appeared on his face. Maybe he could mention it to his father. If he could really persuade him, I believe the heroine would be very happy!

He did whatever he thought of. After the dispersion of the dynasty and the personal guidance of Emperor Zhengrui, he really brought up the matter.

"Why did you think of this?" It looked like the emperor was not very happy.

"My son also saw yesterday that Yun'er was three years old. The second emperor's younger brother is the same age as my son, but he has not been found yet..."

"Yun'er hasn't been in the palace for a long time," Emperor Zhengrui's expression softened a little when he mentioned the little emperor's grandson. "Next time Xiu Mu, you can take him into the palace and show me."

"Yes, I obey my orders." Yang Yan said honestly.

Afterwards, Emperor Zhengrui changed the subject and turned to political affairs. Apparently, he still had no intention of granting a marriage to the second prince he didn't like.

Although Yang Yan expected this to be one of the results, he didn't expect that his father would not even mention it. He was obviously disgusted with Shaoyangji to the extreme.

He couldn't help but guess whether there was another secret behind what happened back then. If it was just for the Xiao family to collude with the deposed prince of the previous dynasty, the deposed prince would have been dead for so many years, and the Xiao family would have been defeated long ago, so there was no way to express his anger. As for expressing anger like this?

After all, they are also bloodline.

It's a pity that those old stories have passed away with so many people, and it is difficult to piece together the truth.

No, Yang Yan suddenly thought that there was someone who must know something inside, and that was the mother of the original owner, the current queen.

Although these past events seemed to have nothing to do with him, he had a feeling that if he could figure out the reason why Shaoyangji was abandoned, it might be helpful.

With this in mind, after Yang Yan came out of the emperor's palace, he did not go back to the prince's palace immediately, but instead went to the queen's Anyang palace.

The queen was a little surprised when she saw him: "Why is the prince coming here at this time?"

She is only in her early forties now. Because she takes good care of herself, her complexion and skin look like she is in her early twenties. However, her clothes and makeup are more serious, which invisibly adds some traces of age.

"My son misses his mother, so he came to see you." In the memory of the original owner, the mother and son got along very casually in private, and Yang Yan responded with a smile as usual.

"You talk so much, the queen is getting more and more intolerable." The queen complained, but she was actually very happy in her heart. What mother doesn't want to be close to her child?

Yang Yan said a few more witty words, which made her smile. Finally, she said, "Come on, why did you come to see my mother? You should just tell me!"

"I can't hide anything from you, Queen Mother!" Yang Yan sighed exaggeratedly.

"You know your son better than your mother," the queen nodded his forehead and said, "If you want to hide it from your mother, wait until you are reincarnated in the next life!"

Yang Yan chuckled, and then asked about the past.

Unexpectedly, the queen's expression changed after hearing this: "Why did the prince think of asking about this matter? How many years have passed, what are the reasons and consequences, and what's the important thing?"

From her reaction, Yang Yan became more convinced that there was an inside story about what happened back then, and hurriedly said: "Since it is an old thing, what can't be said? Just tell me, Queen Mother!"

The queen seemed to be aware of her gaffe, and forced a smile, saying: "You know almost everything the queen knows, that is, the Xiao family colluded with the deposed prince, and implicated the then Concubine Xiao and the second prince, just because the deposed prince was your father. It’s a knot in my mind, so I don’t want to mention it more.”

"Seriously?" Yang Yan asked, but the queen still refused to tell more, so he had to ask, "I heard that my grandfather was the one who brought this matter out. Is it true, or..."

He didn't say what he said next, but the queen had already understood it, and pretended to slap him on the shoulder and said, "See what you said!"

"Is your father someone who can be easily deceived? If it's not the truth, you can tell the truth with just one check. The Xiao family is really colluding with that person. There are both witnesses and material evidence. How can we allow them to deny it?"

After saying this, she gently rubbed her forehead and said, "Okay, I'm tired, so you can go ahead."

When the conversation got to this point, Yang Yan didn't feel like asking any more questions, so he could only ask the palace maid to take care of her and then resigned.

He originally planned to tell her about the second prince, but gave up after thinking about it. It wasn't that he couldn't trust the original owner's mother, but mainly because she would definitely tell the Rong family if she found out.

Some secrets are no longer secrets when more people know them. If traces are leaked and Shaoyangji finds out that he has been exposed, he may act in advance.

Now the reason why his father suddenly became seriously ill has not yet been found out, and he is not ready yet. If anything happens, he may make the same mistake as the original owner.

After returning to the palace, Yang Yan summoned some guards in batches. These people had accompanied the original owner to death. Regardless of their ability, at least their loyalty was guaranteed.

After telling them to secretly investigate the recent whereabouts of the second prince and Rong Yinhua, Yang Yan remembered something again and asked someone to bring the palace doctor's information to him for review.

Because the Crown Princess was now a month old, he said he wanted to select an imperial doctor for her, which did not arouse anyone's suspicion.

However, after investigation, he found nothing wrong with it. All of these imperial doctors had innocent identities and their backgrounds could be traced.

In fact, this is not surprising. After all, they enter the palace to serve nobles. If there is doubt about their identity on the surface, they will not have the opportunity to enter the palace.

As for the deeper things, the time was too short and he was worried about alerting others, so he had to put it down for the time being.

However, Yang Yan was not discouraged. He remembered his previous thoughts on Chaoshang, communicated with the Crown Princess, and talked about Shaoyang Ji's marriage in public while accompanying her for a walk, and signaled to several loyal eunuchs and maids to promise He wanted to let the heroine know that he wanted to ask the emperor to grant him a marriage.

As expected, Rong Yinhua found out very quickly. She almost got angry and hated the nosy Yang Yan!

However, she could only secretly hate in her heart. She did not dare to expose her affair with the second prince, because she knew very well that her grandfather and father would never allow him to marry under the current circumstances. The second prince.

As for revealing that the second prince would ascend the throne as emperor in the future, that was even more impossible. If she told her, her father and the others would definitely tell the emperor. If the second prince failed because of this, how could she still be the queen?

After much thought, Rong Yinhua could only find the second prince quietly. As soon as they met, she looked at him with resentful eyes, her beautiful eyes filled with tears.

"Yin'er, what's wrong with you? Who bullied you?" Shaoyangji hugged her heartbrokenly, "Tell me, who dares to bully you so blindly, I will definitely kill him without a burial place! "

"You are not allowed to talk nonsense!" Rong Yinhua quickly covered his mouth and pouted, "You are not the only one who bullies me, you are the only one who bullies me, you big bad guy!"

I see!

It was him who had provoked her somehow, and Shaoyang Ji felt warm in his heart. Why was his voice so cute?

Even if he is angry with himself, he is not allowed to say unfavorable words.

"Okay, okay, I am the big bad guy and I was wrong." Shaoyangji hugged her quickly and coaxed softly in her ear, "But Yin'er always gives me a chance to change my ways and tell me why I was born." Is my anger okay?”

"You're going to marry another woman. Why do you care if I'm angry or not?" It's okay if he doesn't coax her. But when he coaxes her, Rong Yinhua feels even more aggrieved. Big tears roll out of her eyes as soon as she blinks.

"Who said I'm going to marry another woman?" Shaoyangji laughed, and quickly raised his fingers and swore, "I, Shaoyangji, will only marry Rong Yinhua in this life. If you violate this oath, call me die……"

"Don't swear nonsense!" Rong Yinhua quickly covered his mouth and said angrily, "How come you talk nonsense? Even if one day you really betray me, I still want you to be good."

Shaoyang Ji was greatly moved and hugged her hard: "Yin'er, why are you so kind? How can I, Shaoyang Ji, be so virtuous and capable that I can win your love?"

"You are very good..." Rong Yinhua lowered his head shyly, "I am lucky to have your love."
