The Crybaby Prince is Reborn, Where is the Prince Going?

Chapter 68 The Eve of the Palace Banquet

Jinyou and Xiao Yunzhen were unaware of the famous scene of "loving father and filial son" between Emperor Xuan and his sons.

Jinyou and Xiao Yunzhen did not return to Rende Palace to find He Zhiyi, but found a quiet and deserted place.

"I have a bad guess." Jinyou said straight to the point, not hiding anything at all. "Have you ever considered that I'm not the only one who can hear your thoughts?"

Xiao Yunzhen's heart skipped a beat and instantly began beating like thunder.

He had this guess. The way his eldest brother looked at him and the drastic change in his expression when he mentioned Xiao Yutiao several times all showed that his eldest brother might have heard what was in his heart.

"I've thought about it." Xiao Yunzhen said, "It was only when I mentioned Tiao Tiao that my eldest brother's expression changed again and again. At first, I didn't realize it and didn't think about it, but then I held back..."

Jinyou nodded. Fortunately, Xiao Yunzhen held back. Otherwise, once Xiao Yunzhen revealed Xiao Yutiao's situation, the eldest prince would either kill him or become his enemy.

But now Xiao Yutiao is the most advantageous life-saving trump card in Jinyou's hand, and he will never hand him over.

If Xiao Yunzhen can keep this secret, he can definitely ensure that Xiao Yunzhen will have no worries for the rest of his life, but if... Xiao Yunzhen tells this matter to others, then don't blame him for being ruthless and heartless!

【Jinyou, I'm sorry. 】

Xiao Yunzhen's voice interrupted Jinyou's thoughts, and Jinyou suddenly came back to his senses.

"It's okay. I don't blame you. This is something none of us could have foreseen, just like I didn't expect to hear your inner voice. No one would proactively guard against such a bizarre and supernatural thing."

Xiao Yunzhen knew that Jinyou was right, but he almost ruined Jinyou's plan.

[Jinyou...Now that we know that Big Brother can hear my thoughts, does that mean Big Brother is with us?]

Jin You was silent. He couldn't judge someone as a useful person just because he could hear Xiao Yunzhen's thoughts.

As he was thinking, Jinyou's body stiffened and a chill suddenly rushed out from the bottom of his heart.

The eldest prince was able to hear Xiao Yunzhen's inner thoughts after holding him in his arms.

Just like at the beginning, after he touched Xiao Yunzhen, he could hear his inner voice.

Does this mean that anyone who has hugged or touched Xiao Yunzhen may be able to hear his inner thoughts?

What about Emperor Xuan? What about Consort Chen? What about the wet nurse?

The more Jin You thought about it, the more frightened he became. If this was true, wouldn't Xiao Yunzhen's thoughts have been seen through? Couldn't this all be under Emperor Xuan's surveillance?

He couldn't wait to know the truth, so Jinyou asked Xiao Yunzhen, "Since you were born, who has ever touched you or held you?"

[How l...] ​​As the words came to his lips, Xiao Yunzhen's brain froze for a moment, and he obviously understood what Jinyou meant.

He racked his brains to think over all the people who had touched him and hugged him in the past few days.

[Father, Mother, Wet Nurse, your bodyguard Aque, your palace physician Qingfei, and today's eldest brother.]

"Anything else?" Jin You was a little anxious. If it was true as he guessed that anyone who had come into contact with Xiao Yunzhen could hear his inner voice, then this would be too scary!

Xiao Yunzhen heard Jinyou's urgency and comforted him, "Don't worry. I don't think everyone can hear my inner voice. If there must be any conditions, the most likely ones are bloodline and past life experiences."

Jin You gradually calmed down after listening to Xiao Yunzhen's words. His thoughts gradually returned to normal and he became calm.

"If blood is the premise, then the Emperor and the Empress are most likely to hear it. However, if it is based on your past life experiences, only those who have not yet reached the end of their lives can hear your voice, so the Emperor and the Empress may not be able to hear it."

[Right.] Xiao Yunzhen echoed, "In my previous life, my father passed away due to illness, but he was already very old at the time, and his death was painless. My mother's passing was strange, but she seemed to have no regrets... I don't know if this counts as a tragic experience..."

Xiao Yunzhen was undecided. In his opinion, his father was a rare wise ruler. Although he died of illness, he lived to the ripe old age of sixty. And his mother was posthumously named Empress Jingchun, which also fulfilled her wish.

In Xiao Yunzhen's opinion, the two did not die with regrets...

But the eldest imperial brother was different. He died a month before Tiaotiao returned. It was just a little bit, just a little bit of time, before he could see his beloved daughter.

But things are unpredictable, and the eldest brother ultimately failed to realize his lifelong wish, and he regretted it for the rest of his life...

He thought for a moment, then said to Jinyou, "My eldest brother's wish in his previous life was to see Tiao Tiao again, but he died a month before Tiao Tiao returned... In this life, I wonder if God is also taking pity on me, my father?"

Jinyou frowned tightly, still feeling something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on why. He finally nodded, "No matter what, if we want to confirm whether they can hear your thoughts, we have to test it."

How to test?

Jinyou thought about it and the only person he could think of who could be tested was Princess Wanqi who was attending the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet tonight.

He said, "Princess Wanqi will be entering the palace tonight... You can think about this matter more in front of the Emperor and see how he reacts..."

"But is that okay? What did I say? I only said Princess Wanqi was at the banquet. But wouldn't my eldest brother hear that?"

Jin You frowned, not knowing what to do for a moment, "There's no other way. You said Princess Wanqi is the Goddess of Luo River and will poison the Emperor..."

Poisoning?

"Yes, that's what you said, but Princess Wanqi doesn't have that idea. If the palace banquet tonight is well-guarded, it means that the emperor can also hear your thoughts, but if it is not, the opposite is true."

"Okay, I'll give it a try. But Jinyou, are you sure Princess Wanqi has no intention of harming anyone?"

Jinyou chuckled, "How could that be? She's just a poor woman who just wants to survive. Be good and don't think too much. If she wants to harm the emperor, the imperial concubine, and you, I won't just sit there and wait for her to die."

Jinyou's words completely dispelled Xiao Yunzhen's concerns. "Okay, I believe you! I'll think about this when I see my father later."

"Well, it's getting late. I'll send you back to the Queen first. You have to be flexible tonight. If you find something wrong, you cry. Let your crying be your signal. Got it?"

【it is good. 】

After the two men finished their discussion, He Jinyou sent Xiao Yunzhen to Rende Palace. At this time, Princess Wanqi had disappeared, and it was presumed that she had been arranged to participate in the Luoshen Dance.

Jinyou briefly chatted with He Zhiyi for a few words and did not stay any longer. He bowed and left.

Then he went to the Imperial Garden and stayed with the ministers, listening to them discuss state affairs or compose poems and songs.

He sat aside and ate cakes. It was less than a quarter of an hour before the palace banquet started...
