Chapter 466: Who’s My Father?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“I’ve treated you like this all these years, but you still remember me at all

times. I, I… I’m really not a good mother…”

Rong Yan had been estranged from his mother for many years and had long forgotten how to get along like an ordinary mother and son. He was even more flustered now and only knew to take the handkerchief Xiaoxiao gave him to wipe Noble Consort Ji’s tears.

He couldn’t say that he had never complained, but at this moment, he said, “I

don’t blame you anymore. Don’t cry.”

After saying this, Noble Consort Ji cried even harder. “How can you not blame me? I’ve never cared about you since you were young. I didn’t appear when you were sick and crying to look for Mother. You were too sick to drink medicine and could only get the imperial physicians to administer acupuncture. You were so young. As you trembled, you tightened your grip on the blanket and called me ‘Mother’ softly. You said ‘pain’…”

“On my birthday, I threw away the wooden horse you carved yourself in front of you. On the reunion night, others admired the moon and drank together, but you could only watch the moon and eat mooncakes alone in the cold

courtyard…”

“You stopped crying after you were five years old. Even if others mocked your father and mother for not loving you, you would only turn around and leave

quietly.”

“Other princes can choose guards when they’re three years old, but you were only remembered by the Emperor when you were eight years old. The guards you chose were leftovers from others…”

“Other than when you were first born, I’ve never even organized a birthday party for you. How can you not blame me when I’m still attending someone else’s tooth-day banquet?”

Rong Yan didn’t know what to do. He had seen his mother being cold and ruthless, but he had never seen her like this…

It was Xiaoxiao who spoke first. “You’re blaming yourself, right?”

Did she blame herself like this day and night for the past 10 years?

Did she not eat before she came because she felt guilty towards Rong Yan?

Xiaoxiao patted her back, and Rong Yan finally came back to his senses. “It’s not easy to keep such outstanding Yun Guards until the end, right?

Back then, he was puzzled. Yun Yi and the other brothers were so talented, so why was no one fighting for them? He had also seen the guards of his other brothers and did not think that they were stronger than his Yun Guards.

After all, they were still in someone else’s residence, so it wasn’t appropriate for the two of them to say much. Noble Consort Ji had endured for many years, so she quickly adjusted her emotions. After using eggs and ice water to reduce her eyes’ swelling, she returned to continue dealing with the Empress.

Xiaoxiao had already achieved her goal. She found a corner to bid farewell and returned to the carriage to let Rong Yan come out of the space.

Just now, he had been thinking. If his mother had been absent from his past, how did she know that he had been injected by the imperial physician? How did she know that he was eating mooncakes alone? How did she know that he was bullied?

So, had she been watching him?

Seeing him frowning and pursing his lips while he was deep in thought, Xiaoxiao rested her chin on her hand. “That’s great. Little Big Brother is loved.”

Rong Yan relaxed his brows and felt as if something that had been pressing down on him for a long time was gradually dissipating. The corners of his lips curled up, and he smiled in relief. “Mm.”

In the past, Noble Consort Ji didn’t like to stay in crowded places, so her early departure didn’t attract the Empress’s attention. Of course, the Empress didn’t know that there was only a palace maid wearing her clothes in the carriage back to the palace after she left.

This was the first time Noble Consort Ji had taken such a huge risk in so many years, but she didn’t regret it.

She was going to see her child.

Actually, deep down, she might have been looking forward to the day when her plan was exposed. She could tell her Yan’er honestly that his mother had never abandoned him.

Actually, she was so afraid that one day, she would leave this world before she could hug him properly.

However, when they arrived at the agreed place, Noble Consort Ji hesitated.

The female server walked forward and showed her jade token with the word

“Xiao” on it.

“Customer, your companion has arrived. Please follow me.

Noble Consort Ji, who had acted in front of the Emperor and Empress for more than 10 years without panicking, was actually nervous at this moment.

Wasn’t she a little embarrassing just now?

She actually cried in front of her son and daughter-in-law.

Would Yan’er not want to see her?

What was he going to say when they met later?

Pushing open the door, Xiaoxiao held up the menu. “You’re not full just now, right? Watermelon juice, cantaloupe juice, Cloud Cake, Crystal Cake, Sesame Paste, crystal prawn dumplings, Ruyi bun, double boiled winter melon soup. What do you want to eat first?”

Noble Consort Ji:…

Suddenly, she was no longer nervous.

As soon as the server left, Rong Yan walked out from behind the door.

His face was a little red. “M-Mother.”

Noble Consort Ji held her breath and kept telling herself-Don’t cry/ Definitely

don’t cry!

Rong Yan looked up at her and handed her the handkerchief.

“Your eyes might not feel good.”

She couldn’t hold it in anymore!

Xiaoxiao wanted to leave the space for the two of them, but Rong Yan and Noble Consort Ji insisted that she stay. She didn’t know if it was awkward, so Xiaoxiao made the decision to order a table of delicious food for the two of them and focused on feeding them.

After her emotions subsided, Noble Consort Ji returned to her usual capable self.

“You guys said that you’ve already been to the treasure vault. That place is really…”

Rong Yan nodded. “Absolutely.”

“Mother, what exactly are your plans?”

Noble Consort Ji’s mood was clearly much lower. “I thought that was a

guarantee, but I didn’t expect…”

Seeing that she was still hesitating, Xiaoxiao gave Rong Yan a look.

“Mother, since we already know, don’t hide the rest from us. Otherwise, we won’t know the other party’s plan and do something bad out of kindness.”

These words made sense. Noble Consort Ji sorted out her words.

“I originally thought that with that treasure vault as your backing, you would have the ability to resist even if the Emperor and the Crown Prince wanted to harm you…”

Xiaoxiao and Rong Yan felt strange.

Noble Consort Ji continued, “I got Yun Yi to secretly train some people. There are also people in the imperial court who will help you.”

■’In addition, there are many bandits in the garrison city near the border. I hid thousands of elite soldiers there. They will only listen to you. Although there are not many of them, they will definitely be able to catch them off guard and help you at the critical moment.”

Rong Yan thought of the soldiers who followed him in his dream. Other than the Xiao Family’s soldiers, he did not know the people who followed him first.

So it was…

Hearing this, Xiaoxiao could not help but ask, “Why does Your Highness think that the Emperor and Crown Prince will harm Little Big Brother?”

Putting aside the Crown Prince, even if the Emperor did not treat Little Big Brother well, he was Little Big Brother’s biological father after all. Even a vicious tiger would not eat its cubs. Several of the Emperor’s good-for-nothing sons were living well there. Little Big Brother was so outstanding, so there was no reason for him to be unlucky?

Noble Consort Ji’s gaze landed on Xiaoxiao, and she wanted to say something but hesitated.

Xiaoxiao was about to avoid arousing suspicion when Rong Yan grabbed her hand.

“Mother, Xiaoxiao and I are one.”

Noble Consort Ji looked at the two people’s tightly clenched hands and recalled the adventures they had had together. She made up her mind to reveal the truth.

“Because you’re not the son of the current Emperor.

Oh my god! Xiaoxiao was so shocked that she forgot to drink her drink.

No wonder they always said that the royal family was the source of gossip. If this wasn’t Little Big Brother’s story, she would immediately serve a plate of melon seeds.

Realizing that Xiaoxiao wasn’t as shocked as she had expected, Noble Consort Ji felt much more at ease.

Rong Yan was also very calm. If he hadn’t grabbed Xiaoxiao’s hand too hard, no one would have known that he was shocked.

“Then who exactly is my biological father?”
