Chapter 149: Blood Recognition (1)

  Many things that happen in the royal family are unbelievable. Perhaps the death of Princess Chūgū was also a secret of the imperial court.

  To merge or not to merge?

  "It's definitely not going to merge!" Xiao Yao said nonchalantly, although he also knew that even if they weren't relatives, they might still mix together. This kind of thing couldn't be counted on, and even if they were relatives, there was a chance they wouldn't merge together - it all depended on probability.

  Xiaoyao felt that this probability should not be encountered, otherwise he would have no way to draw a clear boundary with the princess, and this matter, Xiaoyao did not want to happen.

  But sometimes things that don't want to happen still happen, even if the probability is low, it's still possible, let alone this probability isn't too low!!

  "It's merged!!"

  "Awesome!"

  The blood of two people merged quickly when they first met, which made Xiao Yao curse silently, while the Princess Chang was delighted and exclaimed.

  "It really merged, and it's possible that this carefree person is actually the daughter of Princess Chorley."

  "Even if it's not, it might be related to the royal family, otherwise how could she look so much like Princess Chuiyue?"

  Yes, yes...

  In an instant, the entire hall was in chaos. Xiangyang believed that if this matter was not clarified, he would become the focus of the whole city tomorrow, a lost member of the royal family appearing.

  "How about it, do you have anything else to say? I said I'm your elder, call me Huang Yi." The princess smiled and let go of Xiao Yao, her goal had been achieved, she wouldn't keep holding onto him.

  Xiaoyao immediately used a handkerchief from one of the maids to wipe his face clean, and then restored his hairdo. He didn't have the habit of dressing up as a woman.

  "First of all, let me tell you something. This blood recognition is only to confirm whether two people are in a parent-child relationship or not. If they can't merge, it's definitely not. If they can merge, it's possible but not absolute, and this doesn't count!" Xīao explained.

  "Secondly, you and I are not mother and son!"

  "But we've already merged, which at least explains that we might have a blood relationship! And you look just like him, it's not possible to be so coincidental!!" The long princess didn't care about Xiao Yao's words and still insisted on her own views.

  "This really doesn't count. Don't believe me, let the people on the scene try it out, and many will definitely be able to merge." Xīao Wú Nài said, feeling that even if this matter was verified, the princess would not care.

  As expected, the princess shook her head and said: "I don't care about other things, I only know that you look like Zhuo Yue. And since your blood can merge with mine, then you are my little nephew."

  "Sister, it's better if you don't do this!"

  "Call her Queen Aunt. Don't be impolite!"

  "Your Majesty, won't you take care of this?" Xiangyang could only ask Ning Zhiji to intervene.

  "Carefree, I also think there's something fishy about this. Why don't you tell us about your background and let us verify it?" Ning Zhiyuan furrowed his brow, his words clearly implying that he suspected Carefree might be the child of Chui Yue or a lost member of the Great Tang imperial family.

  "I'm an orphan, when the Mo family master picked me up, I was only about three months old. On my body, there was only this one jade pendant with two clear characters: 'Xiao Yao', which is also where my name comes from!" Xiao Yao took out a jade pendant from his neck, the one he had been wearing since childhood.

  "This jade pendant. I've never seen it before, Imperial Sister, have you?" Ning Zhiyuan furrowed his brow, unable to glean any clues from this carefree jade pendant.

  "There's no way. The material of this jade pendant is ordinary, the craftsmanship is also general, it shouldn't be a treasure from our royal family, and it's unlikely that Juluoyue would have it... unless, it's Jiang Donglai! Hmm, it should be Jiang Donglai's." Although Princess Chang didn't confirm anything about the jade pendant, she still managed to find an original owner for it - Jiang Donglai, the guard who was with Juluoyue.

  It seems like it's going to be possible after next month!!

  "Stop it, I also want to know what kind of breed I was born from... This kid's words are too unique, who talks about themselves like that?"

  "Now there's only one thing left to confirm, whether the monthly princess died or left twenty years ago!" said Xiao Yao, "Can I go take a look?"

  "What are you looking at? Are you going to enter the imperial mausoleum and exhume her body?" Ning Zhiyuan immediately understood Xiao Yao's idea, "No way, this is absolutely not allowed! Not to mention whether or not you're a member of the royal family or an unknown quantity, even if you were, the imperial mausoleum isn't somewhere you can just enter at will. And exhuming her body would be disrespect to Zhuo Yue! If Zhuo Yue really didn't die, then that's one thing, but what if she really is dead?"

  "You want to confirm this matter, you have to go and see for yourself. If you don't want to, it doesn't matter. To be honest, I'm not interested in knowing the answer either. Who my parents are has long been unimportant to me!!" He said nonchalantly, "Anyway, I already have my life, and I don't want to change anything. Maybe it's better this way!!"

  "Xiaoyao, you need to change, you can't be a family servant anymore. From now on, Princess Consort will take care of you!" The Grand Princess seemed to think Xiaoyao was pitiful at this moment and immediately showed a loving expression.

  "Your Highness Princess Chang, please don't talk nonsense. Before anything is confirmed, we are not in any relationship!" Xiao Yao said, he was not the kind of person who liked to get involved with the royal family.

  It's no wonder that he's a rare talent, and only he would be indifferent to the identity of this imperial family. How many people in the world want to get close to the Tang Dynasty royal family, but he can completely refuse, and even feel a bit disgusted.

  If this gets out, it will definitely trigger a barrage of curses from a group of people, scolding Xiangyao for being too stupid and not taking advantage of such an opportunity!!

  However, Ning Zhiyuan found that Xiangxiang was becoming more and more interesting because of this. If he had to say who was the most happy after their monthly meeting, it would be him, as he preferred Xiangxiang's personality.

  Xiaoyao is not a power-hungry person, he won't pose a threat to the prince's position. Moreover, Xiaoyao has exceptional medical skills and good relationships with both the Yue family and the Lanruo Temple, all of which are advantageous to him without any drawbacks.

  What's most important is that he thinks that if Xiao Yao can stay, it will also be better for the situation of the Empress Dowager. Who knows, maybe he can even cure the illness of the Empress Dowager, and at that time, the imperial family will have an additional unparalleled strong person as a backing.

  The current Empress Dowager cannot be considered a backing for the Emperor, because if she says something inaccurately, it will become another person's words and the imperial family will not listen.

  "I don't care what the situation is, you look like Ruo Yue, I'll just treat you as Ruo Yue's child!!" The eldest princess had a very simple view of this matter. In fact, she never intended to get involved in other things from the start. She was certain that Xiao Yao was Ruo Yue's child, her nephew.

  Xiaoyao was very worried because he knew that once a madman had made up his mind about something, even if it was obviously impossible, he would still treat it as the most real fact.

  "Hey, you're bullying me, aren't you!" Xiao Yao said with some anger.

  "Little one, have you ever made such a comparison?" The Empress Dowager tapped Xiangyang lightly and said with annoyance.

  "Please don't be so intimate, we're not that familiar." Xiao Yao felt a bit helpless, thinking that this might be a futile resistance.

  "Once you're born, twice you're familiar; come, let the Empress Dowager take you on a tour of the palace while she's still lucid these two days." The Grand Princess said, "Also, when I fall ill, keep your distance from me, I'm afraid I might harm you."

  From Princess Chang's words, she really likes Xiao Yao, perhaps this is a kind of fate, or perhaps it's just because Xiao Yao looks like Princess Zhuo Yue.

  It's precisely because of this that Ning Zhiyuan has to acknowledge Xiao Yao's temporary identity, even if it's just as a distant relative recognized by the Princess, and solely due to the Princess' relationship, Xiao Yao's current status can be said to have increased in value tenfold, with everyone present showing him even more respect.

  This is something that many people want and envy, but for Xiao Yao, it's not a good thing at all, because this matter will only bring him trouble, and there's no benefit to him whatsoever.

  But now that things have come to this, Xiao Yao can only choose to temporarily accept it. After all, this matter should pass quickly, and the eldest princess will only be sober for two days. Then she will return to her previous personality, and at that time, she won't recognize herself, and I can leave. Where would I go? She wouldn't know even if it's strange.

  "Can I go hand over first?" asked Xiao Yao somewhat weakly, now in a situation where he was clearly at a disadvantage.

  "Shift change? What?"

  "I have a job at the Imperial Library, did you forget? I was originally here to deliver books to you, that's why I got caught!! Originally, today was my last day here..." Xiao Yao said helplessly, if he had a choice, he definitely wouldn't have taken on that task.

  "This is heaven's arrangement, destined for us to meet!" The Empress Dowager said with a smile.

  "Let's wait until it's confirmed before saying anything! Your Majesty, can I trouble you not to spread this matter around? It won't do either of us any good. It's best to wait until the truth is investigated before speaking." Xīao Yáo requested Ning Zhì Yuǎn to keep quiet about this matter, as he didn't want it to be spread around and cause unnecessary trouble.

  Of course, he also knew that some people would definitely find out and couldn't be avoided, but some could be avoided. Now he was able to avoid as much as possible!

  At this time, he prayed that it would be best if he had nothing to do with Zhuo Mo!!

  If everyone knew about this idea of carefree wandering, they would be speechless. They really want to say, "Don't waste this opportunity on us, okay?"

  "I'll take care of this, you just go out and have some fun with your aunt." Ning Zhiyuan said with a smile. When he mentioned his aunt, he felt that the words came easily to him, and seeing Xiao Yao's painful expression made him think that this was even more interesting.
