When Ye Zhen arrived at the Hundred Flower Garden, only Ye Chunnan and Ming Xi were left in the hunting ground. Ming Yu was riding a pony slowly led by Xue Lin and seemed to be having a good time.
"Yao Yao, why are you here?" When Ye Chunnan saw her, he immediately rode over and asked the others to watch Ming Xi and Ming Yu.
"I heard that Ming Xi fought with others here." Ye Zhen glanced at Ming Xi who was riding a horse. It really didn't look like a fight.
Ye Chunnan smiled. "What fight? Yan Xiaoliu beat them all."
"Whose child is it?" Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows lightly. Those who can enter this hunting ground are certainly not ordinary.
"I only know that one is the son of the Fifth Prince's family. I didn't inquire about the others. It's just a few children playing around." Ye Chunnan said with a smile, not taking this matter seriously at all. If those little kids knew Ming Xi's identity, would they still dare to be arrogant here? They must be rushing to curry favor with Ming Xi. "However, this child Ming Xi really has some of the demeanor of the Emperor. No matter how those people clamor, his expression doesn't change. Yan Xiaoliu is also not bad. He already knows to protect Ming Xi at such a young age."
Ye Zhen looked up at Yan Xiaoliu who was riding with Ming Xi. Since Yan Xiaoliu knew about his life experience, he did not show deep bitterness or hatred. Instead, he practiced more diligently and accompanied Ming Xi to class and practice martial arts every day. He did not ask much about the affairs of the underworld. Mo Rongzhan seemed to have a good evaluation of him and planned to let him stay with Ming Xi in the future.
"Big brother, what do you think of Yan Xiaoliu?" Ye Zhen asked Ye Chunnan in a low voice.
"What do you mean?" Ye Chunnan asked, "Yan Xiaoliu's life experience is complicated. Keeping him around may be a hidden danger in the future. When he recovers his memory one day, no one knows what he will do."
Ye Zhen said, "What can he do? Naturally, he will go for revenge."
"Nowadays, which sect in the underworld dares to provoke this big devil hiding behind them? Unless the imperial court intervenes, it will not be suppressed. " Ye Chunnan shook his head and sighed. "However, Yan Xiaoliu is a martial arts genius. As long as he continues, his future achievements will not be worse than his father's. Speaking of which … when in China, did father teach Ming Xi martial arts?"
Ye Zhen laughed and said, "How is that possible? How old was Mingxi at that time …"
She suddenly remembered that Mo Rongzhan had also asked about this before. "Gege, did something happen to Mingxi?"
"There's a very strange internal energy in Ming Xi's body." Ye Chunnan had taught Ming Xi for two days, so he could naturally sense that Ming Xi was different. It was Mo Rongzhan who told him that he realized that Ming Xi's internal energy was even deeper than his.
Ye Zhen's face changed. Internal force? How could Ming Xi's body have internal strength?
Was it the power of the Fire Phoenix?
"Even if it wasn't Father, he must have met some expert in China who gave him pointers. Mingxi still doesn't know how to use his inner force. When he grows up a little more, I'll teach him the inner force mental cultivation method." Ye Chunnan did not doubt the origin of the internal energy in Ming Xi's body. Like Mo Rongzhan, they all felt that someone in China must have helped Ming Xi.
Ye Zhen did not speak. She knew very well how Ming Xi's abnormality came about. Apart from the fire phoenix, she could not think of any other reason.
"Then … will this internal force hurt Ming Xi?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice.
Ye Chunnan laughed. "How could it hurt Ming Xi? It will protect him."
Hearing this, Ye Zhen was relieved.
"By the way, who is the child of the Fifth Wangye who was here just now?" Ye Zhen remembered that Lu Jing seemed to be the concubine of the Fifth Wangye. Could it be that the child was her son?
"Looking at his age, he should be seven or eight years old." Ye Chunnan said. "What's wrong?"
Calculating the time, the child should be Lu Jing's son. "Then it should be the concubine's child. I remember that the Fifth Wangye doted on his concubine very much. She was the daughter of the Lu family."
Ye Chunnan raised an eyebrow. "Apart from Third Master Lu's family, what relationship do the rest of the Lu family have with you?"
"Although there is no relationship …" Ye Zhen frowned faintly. She thought of the second branch who was still in the capital. When she was still in Chengde Villa, she asked Lu Zan to help her investigate Lu Lingzhi's affairs. After a few years, she wondered if there was any news.
She almost forgot about this matter. There was also Lady Liu in the State of Qi. Lu Wushuang was now locked up in the cold palace of Yuan Kingdom by her. She did not know if Lady Liu would tell Lu Lingzhi about her daughter's disappearance.
Lu Lingzhi … should still be alive, but how he was alive was uncertain.
Before the sun went down, Ye Zhen took the children back to the palace.
Mo Rongzhan was still in the Palace of Heavenly Purity. Ye Zhen asked Hong Ying to pass a message to the second branch of the Lu family. If Lu Zan had returned, let him enter the palace to see her in two days.
What happened in the hunting ground today was like a formality for them. They had long forgotten about Ming Xi, but it did not mean that others could forget so easily, especially after knowing Ming Xi's identity.
"Brat, you dare to fight with the Prince? How many lives do you have? Don't you know who that is? Even if you don't recognize the Prince, don't you recognize the secret guards around him? I will kill you! " The Fifth Wangye, who was usually the most gentle, received the news before he returned to the palace. Today, his eldest son wanted to drive His Royal Highness away from the hunting ground and almost beat His Royal Highness.
"Father, I didn't hit the Prince. His guard even beat me!" Mo Lianbang howled. He didn't hit Ming Xi at all. Yan Xiaoliu beat him up even worse.
"Why didn't he beat you to death!" The Fifth Wangye scolded angrily.
Lu Jing, who was watching from the side, was anxious. Her precious son had already been beaten. Now that he came back, he was being taught a lesson. How could he continue to be beaten? "Wangye, Brother Bang has never seen the Prince. It is normal for him not to recognize him. If you continue to beat him, he will be beaten to death."
The Fifth Wangfei glanced at Lu Jing indifferently. "Can the Royal Hunting Ground allow ordinary people to go? Even if he is not the Prince, it is not something that a concubine's son can casually drive away. Those who don't know would think that you are the Prince. "
Lu Jing was irritated by the Fifth Princess's exaggerated words. She said, "Brother Bang must have been instigated. How can you blame him?"
"It's all because you spoiled him!" The Fifth Wangye scolded Lu Jing. He doted on this concubine's son, but this time, he had offended the Prince. Not to mention that Brother Bang was only a concubine's son, even if he was the Prince's son, he would not be able to touch the only Prince of the Jin Kingdom.
"What's the use of scolding and beating him at home now? Wangye should think about how to bring Brother Bang to the palace tomorrow to plead with the Emperor," the Fifth Wangfei said lightly.
The Fifth Wangye glared at her. "Are you not going to the palace?"
"I am going to the palace, but I am going to bring Brother Bang to pay my respects to the Empress."
