Don't panic, nephew. I will take this pot of evil star.

"Uncle..." Emperor Qi Zhao spoke hesitantly, and was met with a cold indifference.

"Your Majesty, your great uncle has been dead for many years. I cannot bear the responsibility."

The man in the jade crown had a calm expression, without any of the awkwardness that most people usually feel when facing the emperor.

Emperor Qi Zhao smiled bitterly in his heart. The person that his grandfather and father had been looking for all their lives was now standing in front of him, but he was coldly trying to draw a clear line between them.

It is not difficult to guess that they are dissatisfied with Emperor Xiaozhun. He is really a junior in front of these people!

"Uncle Imperial, whether you acknowledge it or not, you will always be my uncle Imperial to me." Emperor Qi Zhao bowed and performed the proper etiquette of a junior.

The man in the jade crown was silent for a moment, then stepped forward and bowed, "Your Majesty is so gentle and courteous, and truly a blessing to us."

"Since I have no connection to the royal family, I will not overstep my bounds and covet anything in the future. Your Majesty, rest assured."

The man knew when to quit. It didn't matter to him that some elders didn't recognize him, since they were no longer around. But now the younger generations were still willing to see him and show him respect.

The resentment I had felt for so many years has finally dissipated a lot.

Emperor Qi Zhao clearly felt the atmosphere warming up, and his eyes were filled with tears. His grandfather and father could finally have no regrets.

"Uncle Emperor..."

"If Your Majesty agrees, please call me Fourth Uncle. I am the fourth in line after all," the man suggested.

After all, his name was not on the imperial jade list, and it would never be on the jade list in this lifetime. He really could not bear the title of "imperial uncle".

"Fourth uncle." Emperor Qi Zhao was very quick to follow advice and very obedient.

"My name is Yue Dengxian, and people who know me call me Fourth Master." However, it was not appropriate for the two people in front of him to call him "Fourth Master".

He lowered his eyes and smiled.

Seeing that the two of them had become close relatives, Feng Xili opened her eyes wide and began to ask questions.

"Can I call you father? Or do you prefer me to call you dad?" Feng Xili went straight to the point without any hesitation or delay.

It’s a family reunion meeting!

Are you trying to build connections and curry favor with others? Why don’t you hurry up?

Yue Dengxian was stunned for a moment. He had never known about this before, but when he came out of seclusion this time, he unexpectedly found out that he had a daughter. It was really a pleasant surprise.

"It's all right, you can yell whatever you want."

If facing Emperor Qi Zhao was as calm as the wind and water, then facing Feng Xili was silent warmth.

"Well, Dad, I want to ask, where is my mom?" Feng Xili didn't react much, but she knew that there had always been a tiny thorn in the original owner's heart.

Why did her mother abandon her in the prime minister's residence?

After so many years, no one has ever looked for her. Has she been abandoned?

Yue Dengxian could hear the suppressed coldness behind her question, "Xier?"

He looked at her, and after getting her consent, he signaled with his eyes: "Come and sit down?"

Feng Xili chose a seat that was neither too far nor too close and sat down upright, pretending to listen attentively.

The two men in front of him were in a trance for a moment, as if the person sitting in front of them was Empress Wen Yiling.

Although neither of them had seen the person in person, they had seen his portrait for a long time.

Feng Xili is the one who looks most like Yue Ling among all the descendants, so when she sits upright, people always have the illusion that she has walked out of a painting.

"My mother, is she okay?" She wanted to say "still?" but then she felt that was not appropriate and changed her words temporarily.

Yue Dengxian took out a round jade pendant, held it in his hand and rubbed it carefully for a few times, "Your mother is fine, but... she has lost her memory."

Amnesia?

It turned out that eighteen years ago, Feng Qingqing met him, and the two were attracted to each other and decided to be together for life.

Unexpectedly, he was involved in a family massacre and was hunted down. Yue Dengxian was seriously injured and unconscious while protecting Feng Qingqing. In order to buy him some time, Feng Qingqing took a servant and led the enemy away alone.

Unfortunately, she was separated from her servants, and she found out that she was pregnant. She could only take care of herself while coming to Ya'an City.

Feng Xili was born halfway through the journey. It was not until she was almost one year old that the mother and daughter met Feng Linshang, who was then the Minister of Works.

In the huge city of Ya'an, Feng Qingqing only knew Feng Linshang. She entrusted her daughter to him and promised to pick her up soon. Unexpectedly, the incident with Liu Nianfeng happened again.

"Qingqing and I had been separated for nearly two years, and I finally found her, but it was at the wedding banquet at the Zhongning Marquis's Mansion..."

His tone was a little heavy as he spoke, and his eyes looking at Feng Xili were filled with deep guilt.

"I didn't know you were already born at that time. Your mother was forced into marriage and then disappeared for no apparent reason. I sensed something was wrong and rushed to save her, but she was so traumatized that she hit her head and lost her memory."

The father and daughter were silent. They both knew that Feng Qingqing was forced by Liu Nianfeng at that time and was pregnant. The kidnapping caused her to have a miscarriage. She was injured and suffered a series of stimulations. It was a great blessing for her to survive.

"Did mother lose her memory because of that kidnapping and forget about my existence?"
