After giving up being the wife of a powerful official, Ling Yunlu became a concubine

Mo Yi walked over and picked up Xiao Yunhao.

Xiao Yunhao held the Crown Princess's clothes tightly and refused to let go.

"If you want to live, let go."

"Can I get something as a souvenir?"

Xiao Yunhao's tearful look made Mo Yixin soften for a moment.

"You can't take what's in the open."

After saying that, he let go of Xiao Yunhao.

The Crown Princess's attire all has certain standards and etiquette. If she takes too much, it would be easy for the Second Prince to find out.

Xiao Yunhao squatted down and took off an inconspicuous ring from the Crown Princess's little finger.

He held it tightly in his hand. The Crown Princess once told him that if she were gone, he must remember to take it off and keep it safe.

Mo took a glance and kept it in mind.

"move."

Xiao Minshen and others drove away in a carriage. Not long after, the government officials who received the news brought people over.

When he saw that so many people had died at the dock, he hurried to the palace to report.

When the Second Prince heard this, he let the Crown Prince escape again and threw the teacup in his hand away.

"All the people sent there died? Where's General Mighty?"

"He's dead too. I've seen it. It should be that the former crown prince set up an ambush in advance, which led to the ambush of General Weiwu and his men."

At that time, in order to have a greater chance of capturing the prince, General Weiwu ordered all the people on the dock to be cleared away.

As a result, apart from a few people, there was no one else at the scene.

The bailiffs could only guess based on what they saw at the scene.

The prince's body was not found at the scene, only the prince's wife's, which means the prince must have escaped.

"Send people to chase after him along the river. I won't be satisfied until I see the body!"

"Yes!"

As the time for the coronation ceremony was approaching, there was still no news about the imperial seal.

It seems that the only option is to use a new imperial seal.

The second prince opened the box at hand, inside which was the newly carved jade seal.

The newly carved jade seal is not as round as the old one, but has sharp edges and corners.

The second prince picked up the jade seal, placed it on the paper, and made the first mark.

Looking at the mark on the paper, he gave a smug smile.

At this moment, Shen Yunjin in the carriage looked at Xiao Minshen.

"Your Majesty, where are we going?"

"I will send you to the hot spring villa."

Xiao Yunhao definitely cannot appear in Beijing.

After careful analysis, Xiao Minshen decided to send him to the hot spring villa.

Originally, it would be best to go to where the little tiger is.

However, Xiao Minshen was not sure whether there was a tail behind them.

The Crown Princess entrusted her son to him before her death. Although he agreed to save him, he could not put his own people in danger.

"We? I won't go back to the palace either?"

"You stay in the villa with the two children and take good care of yourself. Then I will send someone to pick you up."

"No, my lord, I will go back with you."

The Second Prince must have received the letter about Shen Yunjin being held hostage by the Crown Prince.

If Xiao Minshen had not brought Shen Yunjin back to Prince Qi's Mansion, the Second Prince would definitely order a strict investigation of Xiao Minshen.

For Xiao Minshen's safety, Shen Yunjin must return home.

"But, your body..."

Xiao Minshen also knew this, but he couldn't bear to see Shen Yunjin running around during her confinement.

He knew that childbirth was inherently harmful to women's health.

You should take good care of yourself during the confinement period.

But Shen Yunjin has been on the road since she gave birth to the child.

He saw that Shen Yunjin had obviously lost a lot of weight.

All the fat gained during pregnancy is gone.

He couldn't imagine what would happen if he got sick again.

"It's okay. I'll just go back and take good care of myself."

"If I go to the villa with the child, Hao'er will be easily exposed."

"It would be better to leave both children in the villa, and I and the prince will return home."

"You...are willing to...?"

Xiao Minshen was slightly surprised.

He knew that Shen Yunjin loved children very much.

The second child was only two days old, and Shen Yunjin was willing to abandon him to the villa?

"For the safety of the child and the prince, we must do this!"

Shen Yunjin understood that she and the child could easily become Xiao Minshen's weak points.

This time the prince asked Xiao Minshen to escort him just to seize this point.

She couldn't let the King of Qi have any weaknesses, especially at this critical moment.

The only solution is to send the child away.

It is easy to hide two children in such a big villa.

But Shen Yunjin was too eye-catching.

Shen Yunjin was reluctant to give up her child, but for the sake of the overall situation, she had to consider more.

Xiao Minshen understood what Shen Yunjin was thinking. He reached out and held Shen Yunjin in his arms.

They rode at full speed all the way and arrived at the villa at dark.

Shen Yunjin entrusted the child to Linglong.

"Linglong, I don't trust anyone else, so I have no choice but to ask you for help."

Linglong really likes this place.

It turns out there are hot springs here. Hot springs can whiten and nourish your skin. This is a rare and great place!

"You are too polite, Madam. I really like this place. I would just like to trouble you to say hello to my family."

Linglong told the people in the village that she and her sister-in-law came out to look for her brother.

In the end, my brother was not found, and my sister-in-law passed away after giving birth to the child.

She was a grown-up girl with two nephews, and they had no choice but to come to live with their relative, the head of the village.

The village head helped find a wet nurse and a house for Linglong to live in.

Xiao Minshen left two secret guards to secretly protect Linglong and the two children.

Everything is arranged properly, so we plan to leave for Beijing early tomorrow morning.

They can't leave Beijing for too long, it's very dangerous.

Besides, the day after tomorrow is the day when the second prince will ascend the throne.

Xiao Minshen must be present at the scene.

At night, Shen Yunjin rested with the child in her arms.

Xiao Minshen went out to discuss something with Zhuangtou and has not returned yet.

The door of Shen Yunjin's room was pushed open, and standing at the door was Xiao Yunhao.

"Madam Shen, can I come in?"

Shen Yunjin had just coaxed the child to sleep, and she nodded.

"What? Can't sleep?"

She leaned forward and moved closer.

Patted his son's side.

"Come up."

Xiao Yunhao hesitated for a moment, then quickly climbed onto the bed and lay down with the baby.

Shen Yunjin reached out and pulled the quilt up to cover his stomach.

"Are you scared?" Shen Yunjin asked.

Xiao Yunhao closed his eyes and said nothing.

After a while, when Shen Yunjin thought he was asleep, he spoke.

"Madam Shen, why didn't my father save my mother?"

Whenever Xiao Yunhao thought about the many arrows on his mother's body, he felt heartbroken.

Shen Yunjin didn't expect him to ask this question.

She pondered for a long time.

"I'll follow your mother and call you Hao'er."

"Hao'er, your father didn't mean to save you, he just couldn't."

Shen Yunjin had no intention of sowing hatred in the heart of such a young child.

After all, he is his father, and he cannot be allowed to live in hatred at such a young age.
