Chapter 2 Abandoned Daughter
"Xin'er, if you don't cry, are you hungry? Father, feed you!"
Qi Yuanke was resting when he heard his daughter's cry. He quickly struggled to sit up and took his child from Wei Zheng's hand.
He looked at the small lump in his arms and slowly explored it on his chest. As soon as his little mouth touched the milk, he suddenly giggled.
The little head is rubbing back and forth and it doesn't feed anymore.
Qi Yuanke found that his newborn child was extremely cute, and he hugged her tightly, his eyes full of happiness.
"You should take a sip, why are you laughing!"
Seeing that the child finally stopped laughing and ate his fill of milk obediently.
Wei Zheng, the personal attendant, said quickly: "Your Majesty, let me carry my daughter. You have just given birth and are still weak."
"I'll hold her for a while, and you go out and get some food. I wasn't hungry at that moment, but now seeing how well she eats, I'm a little hungry!"
When Wei Zheng heard his master say he was hungry, he quickly left and went to get his master's favorite food.
The little child can't open his eyes and opens his mouth, as if he wants to sleep.
Qi Yuanke was looking at the child with a smile when he suddenly felt a biting coldness, which quickly disappeared.
His expression changed drastically, he looked at the child and murmured to himself: "My child, today is your majesty's birthday. My father deliberately gave birth to you prematurely and gave birth to you today. I just hope that you can take advantage of the emperor's great blessing, be free and healthy all your life."
As he spoke, tears shed from his eyes. Qi Yuanke understood that if his daughter followed him, she would be in great danger.
Those people will not let their children go for the sake of the jade passed down from the ancestors of the Yu Qilin clan.
"Immortality, Immortality, Immortality is dead..." As he spoke, Qi Yuanke drew a mysterious rune with his left hand.
In the other corner of Fengyi Hall, a hidden rune also shines, and the two echo each other.
"Flowers in the Mirror, Moon in the Water, Rise!"
Through the eyes of runes, Qi Yuanke saw the sneaking black shadow outside the hall, sneered, but soon showed a helpless look.
Suddenly, he heard the cry of a baby coming from the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace. With the help of his powerful rune eyes, he saw a comatose and weak man and his newly born baby girl.
Qi Yuanke made a difficult decision in his heart.
A jade blade formed in his right hand. The jade blade was invisible and would not hurt the child.
With tears in his eyes, he slowly carved the word "Yuan Xin" on the child's left arm bone.
The sudden pain caused the child, who had just eaten and fell asleep in his father's arms, to cry again.
The child's cries made the new father feel distressed, but he still held back his tears.
In the illusion caused by the mirror, flowers, and moon, he placed his child next to the weak man in the Wanhua Palace and took his child away.
The side hall of Fengyi Hall is quiet and peaceful.
"Ke'er, the name of the child is Lan Suiping. May she be safe and sound!" Lan Yawei, with a cold face, said to Qi Yuanke.
"Thank you, Mistress!"
Lan Yawei felt distressed when she saw that Qi Yuanke's gentle and noble face, which had always been in good health, was now pale.
"How could she be born prematurely?" She frowned involuntarily.
"My wife, please don't pay too much attention. It's probably because you have been too tired recently. Fortunately, the child is fine."
Qi Yuanke's face was full of a fatherly and gentle smile.
"You handle it yourself, if anything happens I'll take care of it!"
Lan Ya said with a slightly cold face.
She also knows that she is a rough person who only wants to practice martial arts to serve the country and does not understand the crooked ways of the palace. I am afraid that this time the matter will not be that simple.
"Well, I'll take care of it."
Qi Yuanke nodded. He had long been used to his wife's paralyzed face.
It just so happens that some annoying people in the palace can disappear.
This time he had something happen in the palace, and with the help of the emperor...
"My father is about to be released from seclusion. He will definitely be happy that you have given birth to a daughter. We can finally give an explanation to our ancestors..."
Lan Yawei seemed to be relieved, her eyes were more tender, and she wanted to say something more, "That..."
"Let me see my newborn niece!"
A cheerful male voice came in.
Before I saw the person, I heard his voice first.
Sure enough, Lan Yawen, who was born in a general family and has a cheerful personality, arrived.
"Haha, so cute!"
Lan Yawen saw the newborn baby smiling from ear to ear, and stretched out her hand to tease the baby. Fortunately, she did not wake up the sleeping child.
Also accompanying him was his wife Jin Guangying, the head of the Jinling merchant family.
"See King Zhennan, Lord Wang, see King Jiang!" Jin Guangying saluted.
"King Jiang?"
Qi Yuanke asked doubtfully.
Lan Yawen said with a smile on her face: "Brother-in-law, you don't know, right? Today Yawei comes back victorious, and the emperor has no reward. He directly named our new baby King Jiang!"
"How is this possible..."
Qi Yuanke was shocked.
He asked his wife with his eyes, and Lan Ya nodded slightly.
"I was thinking about you and the child just now, so I forgot to tell you about this."
Lan Yawei continued: "The imperial edict has been issued, and it is true."
Qi Yuanke was a little anxious, this was against etiquette!
"I'm going to find the emperor! Wei Zheng, change my clothes."
"Don't get up. You look weak. The Emperor will be here soon."
Lan Yawen comforted him and said.
In the back hall of Longteng Hall, there is a cup of steaming tea on the dragon table, but there is no one on the dragon chair.
The young emperor wearing a golden crown stood there, looking noble and lonely.
"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is here!" the purple-clothed palace attendant reported.
"pass."
The young emperor returned to the throne and sat upright.
The emperor's prime minister strode in with a calm face.
"I see the Emperor"
"Get on your feet, Rong Qing!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Why does Rong Qing come to see me so late?" the young emperor asked.
"Reporting to your Majesty, I think your Majesty's decision to confer the title of King Jiang today was too hasty. A prince's position is so important, how can he confer it on a newly born child?"
"She is also the granddaughter of Rong Qing's mentor, and the only descendant of the Yu Qilin royal family."
The emperor took a sip of tea and said slowly: "It's my niece again."
Seeing that the emperor had made up his mind, Rong Yan no longer persisted in his objection, but instead talked about another matter.
"Your Majesty, the head of the Yilinglan clan has been secretly supporting Prince Ning. Does your Majesty know about this?"
"This is impossible!" The emperor's face changed slightly, and he quickly asked calmly.
"Where did Rong Qing get the news?"
Seeing the emperor's heavy expression, Rong Yan continued: "It's the news from Prince Ning's nails.
Prince Ning was rebellious and independent of the imperial court before, and his behavior became more and more violent in recent years. I expected that there were many aristocratic families behind him, but I didn't expect that there was the Yilinglan clan.
When the late Emperor appointed His Majesty as the Crown Prince, Lan secretly thought: How can a man be the king?
Over the years, they have been secretly supporting Prince Ning."
After Rong Yan finished speaking, he stood still, leaving the young emperor to think alone.
After a long time, the emperor finally said slowly: "The Yilinglan clan has always flaunted itself as a family of etiquette in the world, and was originally dissatisfied with me ruling the world as a man.
Since I dare to support Prince Ning's rebellion and harm the interests of the country, I will never condone the traitor.
Rong Qing, I will leave this matter to you. Investigate this matter thoroughly, and once the situation is found to be true, I will severely punish you!"
"What about Lan Ying?" Rongyan spit out a name.
"Go do it." The emperor said majestically.
She was stunned for a moment, a little surprised that the emperor would not care about his childhood sweetheart, his fiancée, but he quickly came to his senses, respectfully resigned and left.
After Prime Minister Rong Yan left, the young emperor slumped down on the dragon chair and murmured to himself: "I really envy brother Ke. He successfully married his cousin at the age of fifteen. After looking forward to it for so long, he finally has a child.
And when can I find a husband and have a child of my own?
Are you really doomed to be alone for the rest of your life?
Lan Ying, the Lan family was not willing to engage in the original engagement made by her mother, the emperor, and her father.
What about finding peace among the cherry blossoms? It's all a lie.
