Mo Yan gently held her hand, his voice trembling: "Princess, the Queen Mother asks you to come over."

Jiang Xue noticed that Mo Yan seemed different today. Although she couldn't tell what was wrong, she knew in her heart that something was wrong.

When she heard that the Queen Mother had summoned her, the first thing she thought of was whether something had happened to her master Xiao Yunjian.

"Could it be that Master has woken up?" she wondered in her heart, but then she denied the idea.

She had carefully studied Xiao Yunjian's pulse. He had suffered serious internal injuries after the last fight with Qu Shang. Even if he took the best medicine, it would take at least a month for him to wake up given his recovery ability.

It's been less than ten days, so this obviously can't be the case.

So, if it wasn't for Xiao Yunjian, why was the Queen Mother so anxious to find her? An inexplicable uneasiness surged in her heart. She gently stroked the back of Mo Yan's hand and asked, "Mammy, the Queen Mother asked me to go so early, is there something special?"

"Princess, don't worry. It's not a bad thing and it won't cause you any trouble. You just need to follow me to Luanyi Palace and the Queen Mother will explain everything to you." Mo Yan comforted.

Jiang Xue stared at Mo Yan for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, let's go."

Since the Queen Mother had sent someone to invite her, she had no reason to refuse.

Following Mo Yan into the Empress Dowager's Luan Yi Palace, Jiang Xue was immediately called to her side by the Empress Dowager, "Come, Changle, let the Empress Dowager take a good look at you."

The Queen Mother held her hands, a smile on her face.

Since the winter banquet more than a year ago, the Queen Mother has been particularly caring for Jiang Xue. Not only because she has seen Jiang Xue's growth and changes, but also because of her firm strength, which reminds the Queen Mother of herself when she was young.

The recent rumors that Jiang Xue might be the daughter of Xiao Yunjian and Lu Congfang have further deepened the Queen Mother's favor towards her.

After some investigation, it is almost certain that the news is true.

This means that Jiang Xue is actually Bei Ling's descendant and the Queen Mother's granddaughter.

After hearing the news, the Queen Mother was surprised and excited. She couldn't wait to meet Jiang Xue, so she hurriedly asked Mo Yan to bring her over.

However, when Jiang Xue heard the Queen Mother call her "Changle", her heart became heavy.

Obviously, the Queen Mother already knew the secret of her life.

This is not good news for Jiang Xue.

In the face of the Queen Mother's joy, her face looked even gloomier.

"Did you know? Princess Changle is actually the daughter of Crown Prince Yunjian!"

"Is this true? Doesn't that mean that Princess Qian is now the Princess of Beiling?"

"That's right. The Queen Mother was extremely happy when she heard the news early in the morning. She immediately asked Nanny Mo Yan to take the princess to Luan Yi Palace."

In the palace, the news spread quickly among the palace maids and servants.

Xiao Zhan had just finished the morning court when he heard a commotion in the Imperial Garden.

"What are you doing?"

Seeing that the emperor looked unhappy, Qing Feng immediately spoke up to stop them, interrupting their conversation.

"emperor."

When everyone saw Xiao Zhan, they all shut up and saluted, not daring to say anything more.

Everyone knows that Xiao Zhan dotes on Princess Changle.

The story of how Jiang Xue and she traveled together wearing clothes of the same color when Jiang Xue was still Princess Gong is still talked about today.

If Princess Changle is really the daughter of Yun Jian, then she is the emperor's biological sister, which means that Xiao Zhan can no longer have any improper thoughts about her... However, when he was just Prince Gong, the two were husband and wife.

Marriage between brother and sister is extremely rebellious!

In the court, ministers were discussing the matter, and many memorials suggested that Xiao Zhan should not take Jiang Xue into the harem, and urged him to choose a husband for her as soon as possible.

But no noble in Beiling dared to marry the former Princess of Prince Gong, after all, her past was too closely related to Prince Gong.

Overnight, Jiang Xue's position became extremely embarrassing.

"Is Xiaoxue still in Luanyi Palace?"

Xiao Zhan dismissed the idle people in the garden and asked Qing Feng.

"Yes, she has not left since early morning." Qing Feng replied, "The Queen Mother does not seem to intend to let her go out."

"This matter has spread all over the palace. The Empress Dowager naturally understands what this means to Xiaoxue. She was kept in Luanyi Palace to prevent her from hearing those rumors." Xiao Zhan said thoughtfully, "Is there no new news from Linglong Pavilion?"

Since his father Xiao Yunjian is still in a coma, he can only rely on the power of Linglong Pavilion to find out the truth.

Although he had personally asked the Marquis of Zhenbei, no one knew what happened during the time his father and Lu Congfang were alone.

Even if there was close contact, considering the timeline, Jiang Xue was most likely unrelated.

"Your Highness, there is no further news at the moment." Qing Feng reported.

If his father had not been in a coma, Xiao Zhan could have asked directly. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Oh, by the way, have you brought the two girls Xiaochun and Fudong into the palace?"

There are so many things to do after ascending the throne that it was only today that he finally found time to let Tieyi go and pick up the two girls into the palace.

Ever since Jiang Xue returned to Beiling, they have been clamoring to see her. If they don't arrange a meeting now, I'm afraid the Prince Gong's Mansion will be turned upside down by them.

"Xiaochun came in with Tieyi, but Fudong disappeared as soon as he entered the palace." Qingfeng said with embarrassment, covering half of his face.

Xiao Zhan paused for a moment after hearing this, then said with a smile, "You are usually more stable than Tieyi, but I didn't expect that he is better at managing women."

Facing the teasing, Qing Feng smiled helplessly and shrugged, "Your Highness also knows that Fu Dong looks docile, but in fact, she is very stubborn. Sometimes I really can't do anything with her. She is not as lucky as Tie Yi."

"I guess she went to Luanyi Palace to find Xiaoxue." Although Fudong didn't say it, Xiao Zhan could see that her feelings for Xiaoxue were no less than those for Xiaochun.

"Let's go, let's go to Luanyi Palace and take a look." After saying that, Xiao Zhan took Qing Feng and walked towards their destination.

As expected, when they arrived, Jiang Xue was walking and chatting with Fu Dong in the garden. After a long separation, their faces were filled with joy, and Fu Dong's eyes were even shining with tears of excitement.

"You're here." Seeing Xiao Zhan, Jiang Xue smiled gently.

Seeing her beautiful smile, Xiao Zhan's fatigue instantly disappeared.

"The Queen Mother has heard about what happened between my master and me." Jiang Xue said softly after Xiao Zhan sat down, her smile gradually fading.

"The entire palace is talking about it now, and the ministers of the previous dynasty must be planning a response."

As a member of the royal family, such news would naturally cause quite a stir. Even if Xiao Zhan hadn't told her explicitly, Jiang Xue could guess that the current situation was very difficult for both her and Xiao Zhan.

"Don't worry about these things, I will take care of them." Xiao Zhan comforted her, patting the back of her hand gently, and then turned to Fu Dong who was standing behind her, "In order to see the master, you even ignored Qing Feng, which really made him sad."
