Avoiding the noisy crowd on the hunting ground, the two of them went straight to the palace. After entering the palace, he walked along the path to the princess's bedroom. The person who came to greet him was Wei Ruo's personal maid He Yu, who followed her inside.

In the hall, Wei Ruo was teasing Huan Xuanli. Hearing the movement, he looked up and smiled gently. A silver-red skirt looks particularly bright in the sun.

After worshiping, Wei Ruo handed the child to his maid. He looked at Pei Jiaoran and waved her to come to the inner hall.

As soon as he entered the inner hall, a maid came forward and closed the door.

"Secretary Wei hasn't told you clearly about the current situation, has she?" Wei Ruo said warmly.

"I guess King Wu filed a complaint against the prince." Pei Jiaoran squinted at the newly folded peach blossom on the table not far away, "Your Majesty is holding the prince's hand and wants to hear an explanation."

Wei Ruo said: "The news from the chamberlain is indeed true. The King of Wu asked Xu Jieyu to tell His Majesty. The prince said, 'He has destiny and is not afraid of danger.'"

Pei Jiaoran frowned after hearing this. Thinking of what King Wu had done in the forest just now, he suddenly had a suspicion in his mind. Everything the King of Wu did was to seduce the prince and say, "I am blessed by the emperor's royal aura." He could use this sentence to make a fuss.

The prince's words were nothing to begin with. As the crown prince, he was naturally blessed by the emperor's aura. But if this sentence is said with added embarrassment, it will mean something else to the listener. Especially when meeting an emperor like Emperor Wei.

"Ah Ruo, do you have any good concubines in the harem?" Pei Jiaoran asked.

"Xue Zhaoyi. She just asked me to take Xuan Li to her palace to play for a while." Wei Ruo's tone suddenly changed, "Do you want Xue Zhaoyi to rescue the prince? That's right. If he, the King of Wu, can invite Xu Jieyu, I will Naturally, Xue Zhaoyi can also go there."

Listening to Wei Ruo's words, Pei Jiaoran smiled slightly.

The harem has no owner, and Concubine Zhang is the first person in the harem. Even though the other concubines have children, most of them are still young. In order to survive in the future, they can only rely on Concubine Zhang. The prince was not allowed to enter the forbidden area unless he had something to do, so the matter of making friends with the concubines fell on Wei Ruo.

Therefore, the concubines had a pretty good impression of Wei Ruo. I often walk there on weekdays. But I like her, mostly because I want to use Wei Ruo to get to the prince. When the prince ascends the throne in the future, life for himself and his children will be easier.

"Let Xue Zhaoyi take Princess Xuanli with him." Pei Jiaoran curled his lips, "I will handle the rest."

Hearing this, Wei Ruo frowned, hesitated for a moment and nodded.

The two parted at the palace gate. Wei Ruo carried Huan Xuanli and went to look for Xue Zhaoyi, and sent another maid to look for Sun Shaofeng. She took the path to another place.

Most of the palace people accompanying this time live in the west, where there are especially many flowers and trees. It’s not easy for people to find, so it’s a good place to talk.

Not long after, Sun Shaofeng walked over from the verandah in a hurry. Look around and make sure no one is around before stepping forward.

Raising his hand to stop Sun Shaofeng's movement, Pei Jiaoran said: "No need to be polite. I came to you this time because I have something to tell you."

"But it depends on Xianggong Pei's orders." Sun Shaofeng said.

After talking, Pei Jiaoran handed a cloth bag to Sun Shaofeng.

Seeing Sun Shaofeng's confused look, Pei Jiaoran said: "Go to Xue Zhaoyi's place now. Bury the contents in the flower garden of her palace."

"Here. Dare I ask Mr. Pei what's going on here..."

"That's the auspicious blessing I prepared for Your Majesty." Pei Jiaoran smiled gently.

Put the cloth bag away. Sun Shaofeng bowed to Pei Jiaoran and turned to leave.

At this time, Wei Ruo had already hugged Xuan Li and arrived in front of Xue Zhaoyi's bedroom, surrounded by a group of palace maids and chamberlains.

Xue Zhaoyi, who was playing the piano, stopped, stood up and left.

"Aunt Xue." Wei Ruo called warmly.

When Wei Ruo called her Aunt Xue, Xue Zhaoyi smiled. Her tone was modest, "Princess, don't offend me, come in and sit down."

The two of them entered and took their seats one after another.

After taking a sip of tea, Xue Zhaoyi looked at Huan Xuanli, who was being held by the wet nurse, with a smile, "This child looks a bit like Queen Wende. Come and let me hold her."

"Aunt Xue, don't think she is noisy." Wei Ruo sighed slightly, "This child never makes people worry."

"How old is she?" Xue Zhaoyi teased Huan Xuanli and said with a smile, "It will be fine in a few years."

"She'd better be relieved. Otherwise, let Aweng take her in person." Wei Ruo looked around and said, "Aunt Xue, the weather is nice today. Otherwise, we can take her for a walk in the flower garden in your palace. Bar."

"Very good."

There is a large orchid in the palace where Xue Zhaoyi lives. Before you even get close, you can smell a delicate fragrance.

However, a one-year-old child will show a curious look when entering a strange environment. In Xue Zhaoyi's arms, she struggled to go out.

"Why does this little girl look like a monkey?" Xue Zhaoyi couldn't help but sigh as she hugged Huan Xuanli tightly.

"Aunt Xue, let the wet nurse take her." After saying this, Wei Ruo turned to look at the wet nurse behind him.

The wet nurse understood and stepped forward to take Huan Xuanli and hold him in her arms. Under Wei Ruo's instructions, he took Huan Xuanli for a walk in the garden.

Seeing the wet nurse walking away, Wei Ruo sighed softly, "Aunt Xue, I need your help with something."

"How can I help you? But let's come and listen."

"The prince has been summoned by your majesty for an hour and has not come back yet. The banquet will be held soon, and I am really worried." Speaking of this, Wei Ruo lowered his eyes, "I heard that King Wu left the hunting ground on the way to find the king. Your Majesty. I'm worried that your Majesty may have misunderstood something."

Xue Zhaoyi smiled and said, "Don't worry, the prince is your majesty's favorite and has always been filial. Nothing will happen. If you are really worried, I will send someone to inquire."

"I dare not bother Aunt Xue. But with your words, I feel more at ease."

As soon as he finished speaking, a wet nurse's exclamation was heard from the flower garden.

Without caring too much, Wei Ruo jumped up. He ran straight towards the wet nurse, and Xue Zhaoyi also followed.

When they arrived, they saw Huan Xuanli lying on the ground. There was also a stone-like object in his hand. Wei Ruo hurriedly stepped forward and held his child in his arms.

"What's going on?" Wei Ruo frowned.

After hearing this, the wet nurse quickly kowtowed, "Just now, I wanted to let His Highness come down and take a few steps, but who would have thought that Your Highness would actually lie down on the ground. And then he dug something like this out of the soil."

After hearing this, Wei Ruo looked at the stone in Huan Xuanli's hand. Carefully take it into your hands.

I saw that the stone was made of jade and was no more than the size of a palm. There is a string of words engraved on it, which seems to be small seal characters. Turn it over and there is a line of words, "God bless the Wei Dynasty, the country will last forever"

"This little girl dug up something good." Xue Zhaoyi came over with a smile, and was slightly shocked when she saw the words engraved on the jade stone, "This stone..."

"Can Aunt Xue send someone to invite your Majesty to come? I think this matter must be witnessed by your Majesty with your own eyes." Wei Ruo said.

Xue Zhaoyi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will send someone to invite your majesty right away. Don't worry, A Ruo, this may be a great achievement."
