Chapter 164: CH 164

The old emperor turned the hairpin in his hand as he looked up at Ji Ling Xue, "This is silver hairpin is a remnant from your mother, is your mother called Liu Mei E?"

Ji Ling Xue nodded, "Yes, so you know my mother..." Then are you my father?

This kind of scene was common in books, a passionate emperor in his youth falling in love with a common woman, the two of them pledged to be married, sadly the heaven fail to grant wishes, the two people in love were broken up by all kinds of reasons, the woman left, leaving every kind of beautiful memories for the emperor, after many years, the emperor saw their token of love on the young lady, to discover that she was his own flesh and blood, when the woman had left back then, she had been pregnant with his child, all kinds of sentiments and frustration, sighing.

Such a melodramatic scene, actually happened to her!

Ji Ling Xue ridiculed herself endlessly, her gaze on the emperor who's gaze seemed unfocused, waiting for his response.

The old emperor said: "Cough, cough, just now there were a lot of people in the hall, we didn't ask closely, that's why I asked Ru Ge to bring you for a chat, young lady's mother is an unusual woman..."

Twenty years ago, although Liu Mei E was a daughter of a literary family, but she had a rebellious nature, she didn't like the marriage arranged by her father, she directly ran away from home.

Liu Mei E had learnt some martial arts, she seemed very successful in fleeing the marriage, after she had squandered the money she had brought with her, she began to think about her livelihood, after she arrived in Dayan she saw a business opportunity, a silk business.

Back then the old emperor was also one of Liu Mei E's admirer, he was still a crown prince and whenever he had time he would bring his group of brothers to take a look at Liu Mei E's business, gradually the two of them gradually became close, when he intended to make his feelings known, he was met with Liu Mei E's refusal, she said she was already engaged.

Afterwards, Liu Mei E's business grew even bigger, he was also plagued with work, for a time he was unable to leave the palace, that day was Liu Mei E's twentieth birthday, he snuck out of the palace, he took Liu Mei E to a silversmith jewellery store, the peach blossom hairpin was personally designed by him.

In a few days, Liu Mei E was taken back by her parents, he never saw her again, and didn't know the jewellery in the silversmith store had never been picked up, nor that after so many years Liu Mei E's daughter would appear in front of him wearing it, everything was fate.

Ji Ling Xue sighed, she thought she was the illegitimate daughter of Dayan's emperor, it turns out she had overthink things, so to speak, her mother Liu Mei E was only the unrequited first love of Dayan's emperor.

The old emperor sighed: "Young lady, you look very much like your mother, I wonder if young lady is married?" If she wasn't, he could direct her to his own son, it would also be a beautiful thing.

Ji Ling Xue smiled and nodded, the old emperor once again sighed regretfully, "This is the first time young lady came to Dayan, Ru Ge can take you out and about, Dayan is also a great place."

Ji Ling Xue thanked the old emperor, Ru Ge then took over the conversation and asked the old emperor why Yuchi Gong Ru was detained.

The old emperor's face turned from clear to cloudy, pointing to a balled up, wrinkled piece of paper and tossed it to Ru Ge, letting him see himself.

Ru Ge stooped over to pick up the balled up paper on the floor and unfolded it, his eyebrows trembled, the greatly detailed paper showed a bloody scene of Yuchi Gong Ru drinking a woman's blood, maybe because the it was so realistic, the cinnabar red blood almost enclosed the woman in the drawing, it really made people feel rather horrified

"This is?" Ru Ge asked, the old emperor had been so angry just now at the banquet, did he find out the person who drew it?

The old emperor said: "The skills of the person who drew it is very good, with just a few strokes they captured the person and scene so vividly, see the inside of the room is Yuchi Gong Ru's room, there's a calligraphy we gave to him on the wall."

Ji Ling Xue's forehead was covered with black lines, if you want to discuss this why can't you let me, this stranger, leave, these imperial scandals, she didn't want to hear a word.

Ru Ge nodded, "That's true, I wonder where this drawing came from?"

The old emperor's expression sank: "That really is puzzling, we just asked Fu Shou, the emperor's personal eunuch, he said he took a nap and when he woke up he found this in his arms, he was so alarmed he immediately delivered it over."

Fu Shou was the most trusted person of the old emperor, there wasn't a problem with him seeing the content of the paper, it was best to capture the person who created it.

Ru Ge asked: "Emperor father thinks someone wants to harm imperial brother? That's why you kept him in the palace?"

The old emperor nodded, then shook his head, "This situation is strange, it needs to be investigated, it's fine, there's nothing, we're also tired, you go back." Finished speaking he waved his hand, looking tired he leaned against the back of the chair with his eyes closed.

Ji Ling Xue held the hairpin looking pensive, coming out of the palace, she became quiet, the owner of the silver hairpin had been found, but the questions in her mind had not been solved.

Ru Ge patted Ji Ling Xue's shoulder: "Don't think about it, your mother is someone with such principles, how can she fall pregnant while unmarried, this is all something that someone has deliberately planted, if you really doubt your father, why don't you find Ji Bai Chuan to ask him?"

Ji Ling Xue raised her head and laughed, "That's true, I'm getting upset over nothing, Ru Ge, thank you."

Ru Ge smiled, "Yuchi Gong Ru met you and the prince, this was his misfortune, emperor father already said he  is tyrannical and punished him to be shut in and ponder over his mistakes, emperor father now has the mindset to negotiate peace with Dongqi, I'll be sent to Dongqi as the ambassador, why don't you and the prince stay for a few more days, we can all go back to Dongqi."

Ji Ling Xue thought about it: "Even though Yuchi Gong Ru has been punished, his influence still exists, I'm afraid he won't be reconciled, he won't let me and prince go back without problem."

The two were just speaking, suddenly there was the neigh of a horse, its front hooves were raised and pulled the carriage forward, the carriage Ru Ge took into the palace had sent Xiao Yi Chen and Bai Mo back, this carriage was from the palace, they didn't think  it would be so easily scared.

Ru Ge raised the carriage curtain to look outside, the carriage driver had already disappeared, the horse pulled the carriage rampantly on the streets, bashing sideways and colliding straight on, crashing into the stores on either side of the carriage, the carriage rampaged through a vegetable stand, vegetables flew everywhere, the next moment it rushed through a butcher stand, the meat on the chopping board fell on the ground, some stray dogs came from nowhere and stole a few pieces.

Seeing the terrible scene on the streets, Ru Ge held his forehead: "You hit the nail on the head."

The horses usually chosen for the palace were mild in temper, they wouldn't be so irritable, this horse must have been messed with by someone, and the only person he offended recently was Yuchi Gong Ru.

Ru Ge jumped onto the horse's back and began to rein in the horse, the commoners on the streets pointed at Ru Ge saying: "Second prince...so it was second prince who destroyed my stand, my two baskets of fresh vegetables, I had painstakingly grew them for two months, and hoped to get some money...ah, ah..."

"Second prince, you broke my butcher stand, I have to take care of the old and young, the entire family rely on the butcher stand to support them, you broke it, we will go cold and hungry tonight, you must account for my family."

The commoners began to speak more and more, when Ru Ge had controlled the horse, he was surrounded by people, he was trapped.

The people talked all at once like boiling water, Ji Ling Xue sat in the carriage looking wordlessly at the sky, she really had a crow's beak, what she said would happen.

Ru Ge opened the pouch around his waist, taking out the two thousand silvers banknotes, if he didn't spend some money today he wouldn't be able to leave, he waved his hand, the banknotes scattered into the air, they floated onto the ground like snowflakes, the people enthusiastically spread open their arms to manically snatch them up.

During this, Ru Ge opened the carriage door and pulled Ji Ling Xue out, using light martial arts to leave the streets, as soon as the two disappeared, the people also finished snatching banknotes, then when they looked at the carriage, Ru Ge had already disappeared.

Yuchi Gong Ru stood at the window of a teahouse dressed in a black cloak, coldly watching the show, he sneered: "Ru Ge, this is just the beginning, since prince Chen is supporting you for the throne and deliberately push this prince down, this prince will ruin your reputation, see how you can still fight with me!"

Yuchi Gong Ru crooked a finger, immediately a guard appeared bowing, "Master."

Yuchi Gong Ru said: "Go spread a rumour now, say the second prince was a white knight today, sitting together in a carriage with a woman and parading through the streets, the horse was unexpectedly startled, destroying a street, the vendors wanted him to compensate, in order to avoid his journey being disturbed the second prince dispersed money, flying away with the woman, remember to make the story sound more aesthetically pleasing, let the palace find out as soon as possible."

"Yes!" The guard silently left.

A ruminating smile appeared on Yuchi Gong Ru's lips.

Yuchi Gong Ru mumbled to himself: "Ru Ge, the woman you like isn't in the city but by your side right! Haha...so interesting, you a prince of Dayan with a bright future actually fell in love with a woman from another country, and a married woman...."

Ji Ling Xue who was being pulled along by Ru Ge once again experienced flying, breeze over her face, the air was fresh.

She tilted her head, houses fell behind her, gradually the hubbub of people couldn't be heard anymore.

Ji Ling Xue opened her mouth asking: "Why do we have to return to the residence like this?"

They looked like they were fleeing, didn't they already scatter money, those people would naturally disperse and give them a way out, this was unnecessary.

Ru Ge coughed: "That...the carriage driver disappeared, I don't know how to drive a carriage...what's more its quicker to return this way."

Ji Ling Xue thought about it and agreed, she didn't say anymore and focused on appreciating the scenery.

Ru Ge tilted his head to smiled at Ji Ling Xue, snapping out of it he continued on his way, his feet which were lightly touching the roof tiles slowed down.

Ji Ling Xue and Ru Ge returned to the residence, Xiao Yi Chen and Bai Mo were sitting in the reception pavilion drinking tea, Ru Ge and Ji Ling Xue jumped into the courtyard, Xiao Yi Chen and Bai Mo stood up together to look at Ji Ling Xue.

Bai Mo's eyes were filled with curiosity, "Princess, why did that Dayan emperor want to keep you in the palace?" He almost said, you're a Dayan princess or something like that right?

Compared to Bai Mo's excitement, Xiao Yi Chen was very calm, no wonder he was a prince, he handled things more indifferently.

Ji Ling Xue gave Bai Mo a "you're thinking too much" look, saying to Xiao Yi Chen: "Dayan emperor said he knew my mother, my mother had a silk business in Dayan twenty years ago, they were friends."
