Chapter 612 The old man made things difficult for the king
On the other side, Captain Chen led his people back to the Prince Regent's Mansion and then remembered that the Prince Regent had to accompany Princess Sang to recognize her relatives at the Xuanguo Duke's Mansion today.
He didn't want to spoil the mood of the Talking King and Princess at this time.
"Come here, take them all into the dungeon first."
However, Chen Duwei is considerate and others are not.
As the marriage ceremony was completed, Duke Xuan and San Yi were talking to the side, and suddenly the voice of a servant reporting came from outside Duke Xuan's house.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."
Meng Yinqin raised his eyebrows slightly: "Prince? Why did he come suddenly?"
Speaking of which, neither the Xuanguo Duke's Palace nor the Regent's Palace had anything to do with the prince's personal relationship.
So the prince's appearance was very unexpected.
Duke Xuan had no choice but to put down the old talk with his daughter and help Mrs. Yin to go out to meet people.
Xun Yilong got off the carriage, folded his arms and looked at the people around him.
"I heard that Duke Xuan's family recognized his family today? Do you know what's going on?"
Someone immediately replied flatteringly: "It was Duke Xuan who saw that the regent princess looked similar to his daughter who died ten years ago, so he wanted to recognize her as his goddaughter!"
"Really?" Xun Yilong doesn't believe this coincidence.#@$&
It must be a conspiracy between the fourth brother and the princess.
However, after Duke Xuan and the old lady welcomed him into the house, he glanced at the portrait that Duke Xuan had specially taken out and hung on the wall.
Although the painting is kept clean and tidy, the pages cannot avoid being yellowed and slightly curled, and the outline of the clothes of the person in the portrait is obviously much lighter. It is indeed a portrait that has been left for ten years.
Looking at Princess Sang sitting next to the portrait, she looks exactly like the person in the painting.
"this……"%&(&
Xun Yilong was stunned.
Duke Xuan stood beside him with a smile: "Your Highness, do you think Princess Sang looks exactly the same as my legitimate daughter who died ten years ago?"
Xun Yilong murmured: "It looks like it, it really does!"
Duke Xuan rubbed the corners of his wet eyes: "I buried my Ahua with my own hands when the white-haired man gave me the black-haired man, and then lost her mother. From then on, I felt that there was no woman in the world worth protecting."
"But I didn't expect that ten years later, I would be able to see me, Ah Hua, alive again..."
"So I thought, if I can keep her safe and happy for the rest of my life, just treat it like watching me, Ah Hua, live!"
The implication of these words is that even if he recognizes a goddaughter, he must treat her as his own daughter.
Xun Yilong pursed his lips tightly: "Does my father know about this matter?"
Duke Xuan bowed his hand and said, "Old minister, I asked someone to help bring the memorial into the palace early this morning. I think the Holy One must have known about it at this moment!"
"Eh?" Yin Huan was suddenly startled: "Didn't His Highness the Crown Prince know about this from His Majesty's mouth?"
I suddenly choked when I looked for Yilong.
The matter of him sending people to keep an eye on the regent has always been very secretive.
If the commotion in Shangshu's Mansion hadn't been bigger, he wouldn't have known about it.
After thinking for a while, he explained: "When I went out today, I happened to hear that people on the street were gossiping about this matter. Naturally, I didn't believe it, so I came here to have a look..."
Even so, he secretly glanced at the Prince Regent with a guilty conscience.
But he saw that Meng Yinqin's eyes were slightly narrowed under the mask, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Xun Yilong said again: "However, although I came here uninvited today, I encountered such a good thing, so I have to give you a small gift to express my gratitude!"
As he said this, he asked people to bring in the silk and satin that had been prepared as a congratulation.
Duke Xuan did not shirk the offer and accepted it with a smile.
After the prince left, Duke Xuan frowned and walked to the regent: "It's my willfulness that has put the king in trouble!"
