I am Yuan Niaoniao

"Your Highness!" Feng's voice broke the quiet atmosphere in the study, and he hurried towards Han Junyi.

Han Junyi raised his head slightly, put down the book he was reading, and cast his eyes towards Feng at the door. His calm tone was filled with a hint of inquiry: "Why are you so flustered?"

Feng walked quickly to Han Junyi's side, bowed slightly, leaned close to his ear, and said in a low voice: "I have something important to report..."

Upon hearing this, Han Junyi immediately stood up and rushed towards Chengwu Hall, with Feng following closely behind him.

Seeing that it was Han Junyi who came, Wei Sheng stepped forward with a solemn expression and saluted: "The Emperor..."

"What's going on?" Han Junyi also had a serious expression on his face. "Wasn't he kidnapped? How did he end up like this?" He sat down beside Han Junwu's bed and found that he was no longer breathing. "Call the queen mother, go quickly."

"Yes," Wei Sheng glanced at Han Junwu and turned around and ran out with red eyes. He just felt that the emperor would not survive the night.

After Wei Sheng left, Feng spoke up: "The emperor was already ill, and now he was kidnapped, tortured and beaten until he was almost dead, and then secretly sent back. I'm afraid..."

"You really treat me like a clown! You can come and go freely in the palace, and even kidnap my father and bring him back quietly. Are the guards and secret guards in the palace all dead? They can come and go as they please!" Han Junyi got angry when he thought of this.

"The subordinates are incompetent."

"Yier? What's going on?" Zhen Luoyi hurriedly walked into the inner hall.

Han Junyi then asked everyone else to leave, leaving only him, Zhen Luoyi and Han Junwu.

"What happened to your father?" Zhen Luoyi also noticed the bruised and battered Han Junwu, and went forward to check in surprise.

"Father...." Han Junyi choked up and said, "First, he was kidnapped by thieves at the palace banquet that night, and then he was sent back in this state. I'm afraid Father is not going to make it."

"Have you called the imperial physician?" Zhen Luoyi asked.

"Eunuch Wei asked the imperial physician to come and see him immediately," Han Junyi nodded.

"Your Majesty? Your Majesty?" Zhen Luoyi gently shook Han Junwu's arm again, and reached out to feel his breath.

"Mother." Han Junyi helped Zhen Luoyi up, and with red eyes he looked at Han Junwu who had stopped breathing on the bed: "I have to say goodbye to my father."

Although I was hoping for his death, now that he had really left without a word, without leaving a single word, I felt a little bit of genuine sadness in my heart. I wiped my tears and said, "Then let your father go in peace."

"Right now, our father's affairs cannot be made public. If guests from various countries knew that our father passed away at this critical moment, it might not be a good thing!" Han Junyi said after thinking for a while.

"Yes, and since Princess Zhaoping has not yet agreed, we can't let anyone know about your father, so we have to keep it a secret." Zhen Luoyi said, with a hint of murderous intent in her eyes. "How many people know about your father?"

"There should be just a few servants and soldiers serving closely, and Wei Sheng." Han Junyi said after thinking for a while.

Zhen Luoyi thought calmly for a moment and then said, "What happened tonight must not be spread outside. All those present today will be killed without mercy. In addition, send more people to protect the emperor's bedroom. Such things must not happen again, and no one can be allowed to find out what's going on here. As for Wei Sheng, everyone knows that he is your father's confidant. Keep him for now and call him in first."

Han Junyi was heartbroken, but he knew he had to be strong at this moment. He looked at Zhen Luoyi and said firmly, "Yes, mother, I will obey your orders."

Wei Sheng knelt on the ground as soon as he came in. He knew that he was in great danger. After following Han Junwu for so many years, he knew what his fate would be.

It was late at night, and the inner hall was filled with a tense atmosphere. Wei Sheng silently accompanied Han Junwu's body. At this moment, he wanted to commit suicide, but when he thought of Zhen Luoyi threatening him with his family to tell others that the emperor had passed away even if he didn't die, he could only endure it. Han Junyi sent someone to bring ice cubes and put them next to Han Junwu's body, making sure to keep them for a while. When the time was right, the funeral would be held. After everything was settled, Han Junyi and Zhen Luoyi returned to their respective palaces.

The next morning, the palace returned to its normal state. Everyone was busy doing what they were supposed to do. No one knew that their emperor had died suddenly.

.........................

"As you expected, Han Junyi kept it a secret." Yuan Niao Niao smiled and said, "Indeed, he had no choice but to do this. If the news of Han Junwu's death were to spread at this time, he would not be able to bear the pressure he would face. Not to mention that he has always been wary of Zhao State, which is already weak in national strength. If the world knew this news, he would be like meat on the chopping board, at the mercy of others."

"I guess his next step will be to capture Princess Zhaoping." Chen Shaoyi smiled.

"Princess Zhaoping doesn't seem to be interested in him. And Jin Jingni may not be willing to give up her position as princess consort. Not to mention, if she knew Han Junyi was going to take that position, she would be the queen." Yuan Niao Niao glanced at Chen Shaoyi with interest.

"He has been preoccupied with love affairs lately, and is indeed not as smart and perceptive as before. He also relies on Wen Zili for everything, and is a completely different person from before." Chen Shaoyi already looked down on him.

"I feel the same way. Dadu will be destroyed in his hands sooner or later." Yuan Niaoniao smiled. "Then we should hurry up and move to Yuan Country."

"Next month, Jinzhi and Jiaxin will arrive. I have already made arrangements. Grandpa and Yao Zun have also been notified." Chen Shaoyi thought for a moment and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, the Ming Pavilion will also be relocated in five days."

"Big move. I'll talk to mother and grandmother. As for Xixi..." Yuan Niaoniao frowned.

"You are worried that if the whole family moves to Yuan Country, Nian Shiyun and Xixi will fall in love in a foreign country, right?" Chen Shaoyi knew the reason when he saw her embarrassed look.

"Yes, Xixi has feelings for Shiyun, and Shiyun also has feelings for Xixi. As her sister, how can I not see that? Well, I'll just ask Xixi directly and let her make her own decision." Yuan Niao Niao shrugged.

“By the way, I have also arranged for someone to pick up Jinzhi’s parents,” Chen Shaoyi said again.

"Okay, okay, I'm satisfied with everything you arrange!" Yuan Niao Niao looked at this person and realized that the best thing she had done after her rebirth was to choose Chen Shaoyi as her other half. Is this God's compensation for her previous life?

"Of course, Niaoniao is the one in my heart." Chen Shaoyi looked at Yuan Niaoniao with a smile in his eyes.

"Then how can we leave Dadu reasonably? After all, you are His Royal Highness the Prince of Dadu." Yuan Niaoniao suddenly thought that if she left rashly and went to another country, wouldn't that be treason and give people something to talk about?

"We will have to rely on Han Junyi's help when the time comes." Chen Shaoyi said confidently.

"It looks like he's the unlucky scapegoat again." Yuan Niao Niao saw Chen Shaoyi's expression and knew that he had already planned everything. "Then let's go out for a walk later and stop by the Underworld Pavilion."

"it is good."

..............

In the evening, when they arrived at Mingge, Yuan Niaoniao took the opportunity to tell everyone about the plan while eating.

"It doesn't matter to mother and grandmother. As long as you decide on something, we will support you unconditionally!" Bai Yue'e said, "Besides, being able to reunite as a family in Yuan Country is better than living in hiding like this."

"Mother-in-law, please eat some meat." Chen Shaoyi obediently picked up some food for Bai Yue'e and said, "My mother is looking forward to it. When we arrive in Yuan Country, I will be able to keep you company and have someone to talk to."

"Liuli, you're amazing. She's still so lively after all these years. Your mother and I used to be one active and one quiet, complementing each other, and we got along very well." Bai Yue'e thought back to when she was a girl, she often played with Liuli.

"That's why mother keeps talking about going to Yuan country as soon as possible." Chen Shaoyi smiled, "It's only mother-in-law who can make mother worry about her now."

Hahahahahaha, everyone finished their dinner in laughter.

After dinner, Niao Niao came to Xixi's room and knocked on the door gently: "Xixi?"

"Come in, what's wrong?" Hearing it was her sister's voice, Xixi walked over and opened the door.

"I came to talk to you." Niao Niao closed the door gently, took Xixi's arm and walked to the table, sitting down side by side. "If you go to Yuan Country, will you miss Shiyun?"

"I knew you would come to me to say this!!" Xixi smiled and said, "I'm not a child. I know what I should and shouldn't do. Don't worry, sister. I won't be unwilling to leave with you just because I can't bear to leave Brother Shiyun. In Xixi's heart, family comes first and then other people. And Xixi also knows that no matter where Xixi is, as long as Brother Shiyun has Xixi in his heart, he will come to find Xixi no matter how far away he is!"

"Wow, my Xixi has really grown up!" Hearing Yuan Xixi's words, Yuan Niaoniao was very surprised. She thought that if she was unhappy, she would have to persuade her, but she didn't expect her to be so insightful! "Are you really so confident in Shiyun?"

"It's not about confidence, but belief!" Yuan Xixi nodded and held Yuan Niao Niao's hands: "If it's someone who likes Xixi, Xixi will treat him/her warmly. If it's someone who doesn't like Xixi, Xixi won't care!"

"My dear Xixi. Then I feel relieved!" Yuan Niaoniao touched Xixi's head. She has finally grown into an adult that she doesn't need to worry about.

"Xixi, you don't have to worry about me all the time. Xixi will share the burden on your shoulders with you." Yuan Xixi said while hugging Yuan Niao Niao.

"Well, sister now knows how strong our Xixi is! I am completely relieved!" Yuan Niaoniao felt sincerely relieved and happy.

On the way back to Prince Chen's Mansion, Yuan Niao Niao always had a smile on her face. Chen Shaoyi couldn't help but ask, "What did you talk about with your sister-in-law? It seems that Niao Niao is in a good mood."

"You don't know, but Xixi actually lives more clearly than I do," Yuan Niaoniao told Chen Shaoyi with great interest about the conversation they had just had.

Upon hearing this, Chen Shaoyi also felt that this statement was indeed insightful. "Then it depends on whether Master Nian will disappoint his sister-in-law's expectations!"

"I don't think so." Yuan Niaoniao said with a smile: "Xixi looks so sure!"

"I'm also optimistic about Young Master Nian." Chen Shaoyi smiled.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

…………

Compared to Chen Shaoyi and Niao Niao's ease, Han Junyi was walking on thin ice in the palace. He never expected that Han Junwu would die so quickly, which disrupted his original plans.

"Mr. Wen, this is a critical moment." Han Junyi said solemnly, "My father has passed away, but I have kept the news secret."

Wen Zili was a little surprised when he heard this. Did the emperor leave so quietly? But it was good. With Han Junyi in that position, his talents could be better developed, and he could stand at a higher place and look down on everyone who looked down on him. By then, Jiaxin should also return to his arms!

"What Your Highness has to do next is to quickly capture Princess Zhaoping and win over the Kingdom of Dai as our allied country! Only by winning over the Kingdom of Dai as our backer can we sail the ship smoothly on the sea! The news of the Emperor's death cannot be concealed for long. Once it is announced to the world, we will be surrounded by enemies on all sides. The enemy countries are eyeing us covetously. The Kingdom of Dai is a powerful ally for us to recover." Wen Zili said.

"Of course I understand this, but it's the princess and Prime Minister Jin. The Jin family has always been loyal, and I don't want to hurt the Prime Minister's feelings." Han Junyi said.

"Then let my subordinates go and lobby Princess Yi." Wen Zili stood up and said.

"Okay, I'll wait for you." Han Junyi nodded. Anyway, he was not in the mood to argue with Jin Jingni.

. . . . . . . . . . . .

"Mr. Wen, do you have something to talk to me about?" Seeing that it was Wen Zili who came to visit, Jin Jingni thought to herself that something was wrong.

"Your Highness is a smart person, I will tell you clearly." Wen Zili said with a smile. "Now our country is weak, and we need allies, and Dai is the best choice. Your Majesty's body is getting weaker and weaker, and then the prince will have to take on the responsibility of the country, so does your Highness support your request to marry Princess Zhaoping?"

"So that's how it is. But I'm already the queen, how could Princess Zhaoping be willing to be below me!" Jin Jingni smiled coldly.

"That's why I'm here to persuade Princess to consider the overall situation." Wen Zili looked at Jin Jingni and said, "Princess, think about it carefully. After all, you are the master. No matter how noble the princess is, she is still a foreigner. How can we, the descendants of the great dynasty, let a child with foreign blood inherit the throne, right? Just for the sake of your highness's great cause, you have to be patient for a while. When the storm is over, you can do whatever you want, Princess. Your Highness is a smart person. This concession is the best result. Princess, you have to consider the Jin family, right?" Wen Zili said all the good and bad things, and those who should understand would naturally understand.

Jin Jingni's face turned pale. She naturally knew that what Wen Zili said was not without reason. If she insisted on not giving in, Han Junyi might not tolerate her. After all, the gap between Dai Kingdom and the Prime Minister's Mansion was too big.

"As for Prime Minister Jin, the princess will go and lobby him." Wen Zili bowed and left.

Leaving Jin Jingni standing there in a daze...
