Soon after Shaoyang Ji was imprisoned in the palace, taking advantage of the unsuspecting guards, he tried to seek death again. Fortunately, he was discovered in time and stopped again.

The news was delivered to Yang Yan, he thought about it and decided to meet the hero.

This is the first time he has seen the second brother since he came to this world. Unlike the background board in the memory of the original owner who always bowed his head and huddled in the shadows, after the failure of the conspiracy, he raised his head high, revealing the Zhang actually has a very handsome face.

As soon as he saw him, Shaoyang Ji showed a sneer on his face, and said proudly: "Today's failure is because my skills are inferior to others. If you want to kill or cut casually, but if you want to humiliate me, don't think about it!"

Yang Yan did not entangle him with this matter, but asked a question that caught him off guard: "Do you love Rong Yinhua very much?"

For the first time since Shaoyang Ji was captured, panic appeared on his face, but he quickly covered it up and continued to sneer: "I don't understand what you are talking about, I have a sworn feud with the Rong family, The daughter of the Rong family is the one I must kill."

Yang Yan didn't pierce his pretended composure, walked to the chair in front of him and sat down, putting on a chit-chat attitude: "I believe you also know that the Queen Mother intended to make Rong Yinhua the lonely princess, So I often send people to pick her up to play in the palace."

Shaoyang Ji couldn't help but snorted coldly: "These are all your private matters, I'm not interested in listening."

"Everyone in this palace knows this in their hearts, so they all respect her. No matter what she wants to do or where she wants to go, no one will stop her." Yang Yan ignored him and said to himself, "But Rong Yinhua loves cleanliness by nature, but she never wants to set foot in those filthy places, for example..."

Seeing that although his face still looked impatient, his ears could not help but prick up, Yang Yan smiled lightly, and continued: "Lenggong, she never likes to go."

"What do you want to say?" Shaoyang Ji realized now that he might have seen through the relationship between the two, and finally panicked, "Shaoyang Yan, you can just deal with me, Yin'er is your direct cousin, don't you think so?" Want to attack her?"

Yang Yan still ignored him, and continued: "When Rong Yinhua was eight years old, he suddenly asked his mother for a young palace maid from Changsu Palace. Naturally, my mother would not disrespect her for such a trivial matter. The little palace maid gave her to be a maid."

He looked at the young man whose face was turning pale with special meaning, and said slowly, "That little maid has a unique name, Xiaolian."

"What do you mean?" Shaoyang Ji's lips trembled, and he already had a bad premonition in his heart, but he was unwilling to think about the worst outcome, "Yin'er once helped me under the pseudonym Xiaolian. Are you going to condemn her?"

"Shaoyang Yan, I am the one who did the wrong thing, don't involve innocent people in this!"

"Is Rong Yinhua really innocent?" Yang Yan sneered, "How many things about the East Palace have you inquired from her? Why did she suddenly send a letter asking Gu to leave the palace the night before?"

"So you know everything..." Shaoyang Ji was stunned, and then a trace of pleading appeared on his face, "Since Yin'er is your cousin, can you let her go?"

"Is it interesting to deceive yourself?" Yang Yan looked at him with a little sympathy in his eyes, "Do you know what happened to that little palace lady named Xiaolian?"

Shaoyang Ji stared at him blankly, a voice in his heart shouted to him not to listen, to stop him from speaking, but he opened his mouth, but nothing came out.

"About two months later, I heard that a maid beside Rong Yinhua fell into the lake and drowned in the winter. The body was frozen together with the lake water. The eunuch broke the ice to dig her out with rough hands and feet. I heard that both legs were broken."

"It's so pitiful," Yang Yan asked twice, "What do you think this child named Xiaolian is doing by the lake alone in the cold weather at night?"

"No, it's not true, you lied to me," Shaoyang Ji clenched his ten fingers in his sleeves tightly, and the wound on his arm, which had been wrapped up for a while, opened, but he seemed to feel no pain. Staring fiercely at the man opposite, "Shaoyang Yan, you are lying to me, aren't you?"

"Whatever you think," Shao Yangyan said with an innocent face, spreading his hands, "Gu is just telling you a story."

After that, he stood up and prepared to leave.

"Don't go!" Shaoyang Ji yelled at this moment, and rushed towards him, but was soon thrown to the ground by the guards waiting at the side.

"Shaoyang Yan, please speak clearly!" Shaoyang Ji was pressed to the ground and couldn't move, his face was covered with dust but he still raised his head and looked at him imploringly. He didn't have the half-proud look before ?

"What do you want to know, why don't you ask Rong Yinhua himself?" Yang Yan looked at him condescendingly, and said lightly, "Since your love is stronger than gold, I will fulfill you and ask Rong Yinhua for you. How about his daughter, this brother Gu treats you well, right?"

Although he knew that he was uneasy and well-intentioned, Shaoyang Ji couldn't utter a word of rebuttal, he was too eager to know the truth.

Even though the truth may be very cruel, he would rather face it with sobriety and pain than be fooled into it until death.

Seeing that he had given up struggling and was lying on the ground silently, Yang Yan knew that he might not think about seeking death again in a short time, and did not continue to drive nails into his heart, so he turned and left with a flick of his sleeve.

Things have been going well so far. When he returned to the palace, his steps were easy. Unexpectedly, when he reached the gate of the Tai Tai's womb, he found that the people inside were in a panic, looking like they were thrown off their feet.

"What's so noisy?" Yang Yan said suddenly, as if the pause button was pressed in the palace, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at him together.

"Your Highness, you are back!" After only a moment of stunned, one of the little maids cried out in surprise, and the others also seemed to have found their backbone, most of the fear disappeared from their faces, and they knelt on the ground to salute together.

"What exactly happened?" Yang Yan asked after calling him up, but unexpectedly got a shocking news.

"What? The princess was frightened and gave birth prematurely?" After hearing the report from the little maid, he raised his legs and walked in quickly, and questioned, "Why didn't anyone come to inform the orphan?"

The little palace maid replied in a tearful tone: "It's the empress who said that His Highness is engaged in business, so no servants and others are allowed to disturb His Highness."

Yang Yan knew that she could not be blamed for this matter, and now was not the time to pursue responsibility, so she didn't say much, just strode forward with her head sullen.

When he was still some distance away from the princess' bedroom, he suddenly heard a woman's voice yelling in horror: "It's not good, the empress is having a difficult delivery!"

Yang Yan's heart skipped a beat, and he rushed in like a gust of wind, bumping into the midwife with bloody hands.

The midwife was also surprised when she saw him, and she was about to kneel down to salute, but he stopped her with a wave of her hand, and hurriedly asked, "Why is it difficult to give birth? Where is the imperial doctor? Have you ever treated the princess?"

"Your Highness may not understand this very well," the midwife showed embarrassment, "Men have always been forbidden to enter the delivery room, and besides, the imperial physician can only treat illnesses, but regardless of giving birth, it is useless even if they come!"

Yang Yan didn't argue with her, instead he turned his head and ordered his subordinates to invite an imperial doctor who is proficient in gynecology and inform the queen, and asked himself: "How is the princess?"

Before the midwife could answer, another person came out from the delivery room, opened his mouth and shouted in a panic: "Your Majesty and the little emperor's grandson are dying, and now we can only keep one of them, Your Highness, please make up your mind. "

"Of course it's Baoda's." Yang Yan said without thinking.

The midwife was stunned for a moment. After working in the industry for so long, she rarely heard this answer, not to mention that the person who said this was the prince of a country, and the one he gave up was of royal blood.

Feeling in her heart how lucky the Crown Princess is, she didn't dare to delay Fushen and went in, but unexpectedly, after only a short while, she turned out again.

"Your Majesty refuses, saying that the servants must keep the little grandson." The midwife said helplessly.

Yang Yan is not too surprised by this. Most women in this era have a spirit of self-sacrifice, they can give everything for their parents, husbands, and children, but they forget themselves, as if they spend their whole lives for others and live.

"This matter has the final say," he said resolutely, "I only want the Crown Princess to be safe and sound, and if something happens to her, I will only ask you."

The two midwives who were threatened had no choice but to go in again to persuade the princess, but unfortunately she couldn't listen to what they said, and wanted them to keep the child no matter what.

The birth of a child still requires the cooperation of the mother, and she disagrees with the two of them and there is no way to complete it, so she has to come out and reply to the prince.

Seeing the time passing by every minute and every second, every moment of delay will increase the danger, Yang Yan directly entered the delivery room regardless of everyone's obstruction.

As soon as he entered the door, he smelled a strong smell of blood. The princess was lying on the delivery bed, looking extremely embarrassed. Her face was soaked in sweat, her belly was raised high, and a thin quilt was draped over her body. The legs are separated, and the smooth calf is exposed.

"Why did Your Highness come in?" The Crown Princess asked weakly. When she saw him, she was so ashamed and angry that she wanted to cover her calf with a thin quilt, but it was difficult for her to move up and down. She covered it.

"You're going to die, how can Gu stay outside?" Yang Yan said angrily.

But now seeing her in such a distressed state, no matter how much anger he felt, he could only comfort him: "We already have an eldest son, so it doesn't matter if this child unfortunately dies."

"Now your body is very important, you must not make fun of your own life, can you rest assured that you will carry it?"

"Your Highness, how can I give up my own flesh and blood?" The Crown Princess still shook her head stubbornly.
