Chapter 264: Reporting! Your Majesty, Lord Xuanji’s Illegitimate Son Is Here

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the Heart-Nurturing Palace, the Great Xia Dynasty.

The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was seated in the great hall and looking through the memorials.

However, he had been ill at ease for the past few days.

The fact that his biological son had suddenly disappeared made him feel uneasy.

More than twenty years ago, his son had gone missing once and now, he didn’t want to lose him again.

Moreover, the memorial on the table made him feel exhausted because such a thing had never happened before.

However, at this moment, various voices sounded, making the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty energized.

“We’ve found him. We’ve found him. Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Changyu has been found. Changyu has been found.”

Taishang Xuanji scurried all the way to the Heart-Nurturing Palace, overwhelmed with joy and excitement.

“Who has been found?”

“Xuanji, who did you say has been found?”

“Have you found Changyu?”

“Where is he? He’s no longer in danger, is he?”

Upon hearing this, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty stood up agitatedly and walked towards Taishang Xuanji.

“Your Majesty, congratulations. Your Majesty, congratulations. I’ve found Changyu.”

As soon as Taishang Xuanji walked in, he wanted to kneel to the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.

However, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty waved his hand and stopped Taishang Xuanji from kneeling to him.

Instead, he asked eagerly, “Where is he? How did you find him?”

The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty didn’t care about formalities now as he just wanted to know where Su Changyu was and how he had been found.

“Your Majesty, Changyu is now in the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty.”

“He had registered his name when he entered the capital and my subordinates informed me about it. I went to take a look and it’s indeed Changyu.”

Taishang Xuanji suggested.

“Changyu is in the Great Xia Dynasty?”

Hearing this, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was immediately a little surprised as he didn’t expect Su Changyu to actually come to the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty of his own accord.

“Yes.”

Taishang Xuanji nodded.

“What is he here in the capital for?”

“Could it be that he’s already aware of his ident.i.ty?”

The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty got a little nervous. He was curious as to why Su Changyu came to the capital and was worried that Su Changyu might have already found out his ident.i.ty.

“I… I have no idea.”

“According to the subordinates, Changyu seems to…”

Taishang Xuanji hesitated for a moment at this point.

“Just tell me.”

The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty said in a low voice.

“It seems that Changyu came from the Great Qian Dynasty.”

Taishang Xuanji answered.

As soon as he said that, the expression on the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty’s face turned a little awful.

Other people might not know why the Great Xia Dynasty didn’t have much contact with the Great Qian Dynasty in recent years.

However, the emperor knew how much the emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty hated him and it would be an exaggeration to say that they couldn’t stand each other but they were definitely not rivals.

Although the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was guilty, he felt that the emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty had lots of misconceptions and misunderstandings about him. He didn’t know what to say about it and thus the two dynasties had rarely been in contact with each other lately.

After hearing that Su Changyu had come over from the Great Qian Dynasty, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty somehow thought of something.

However, after a while, he shook his head and frowned.

“Xuanji, help me think about it, what can Changyu be here for this time?”

The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty didn’t want to rack his brains, so he asked Taishang Xuanji about it.

He wanted Taishang Xuanji to guess why Su Changyu had come to the Great Xia Dynasty.

Hearing this, Taishang Xuanji actually understood what the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was worried about. After all, Su Changyu had been wandering outside for more than twenty years, and now that he had found out that he was the Tenth Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, he might have developed some feelings of resentment.

The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was worried that there might be a strain on his relations.h.i.+p with his son, although others felt that Su Changyu wouldn’t do that.

However, there was nothing Taishang Xuanji could say about it.

Hence, after thinking about it, Taishang Xuanji spoke again.

“Your Majesty, I think Changyu probably just wants to come here and explore, he definitely isn’t here to reunite with you.”

Taishang Xuanji answered.

However, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty shook his head and looked at Taishang Xuanji with a somber expression.

“Xuanji, let me ask you a question. If Changyu is here this time to reunite with me, what should I do?”

He asked.

No matter what Taishang Xuanji said, he was still a bit anxious.

“If he’s really here to reunite with his father, just acknowledge him. You’re family after all, some things cannot be hidden.”

Taishang Xuanji lowered his head and said so.

He didn’t know what to say either and could only go along with the emperor’s wishes.

“But if I do that, wouldn’t Xia Qian…”

The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty mentioned the Crown Prince again.

“Your Majesty, the Crown Prince probably wouldn’t get angry. He’s cultivating and nurturing his heart now. Besides, the Crown Prince may be mischievous, but he is not an immoral person and is sensible enough. Don’t worry, Your Majesty.”

Taishang Xuanji answered.

The reason the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty brought that up to him was because it concerned the Crown Prince.

In fact, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty definitely wanted to reunite with Su Changyu.

However, the problem was that it would lead to an uproar in the imperial court.

He knew that the Crown Prince would not be at ease unless he became the emperor.

That was the reason why the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty had to strike a balance between acknowledging Su Changyu while ensuring that the Crown Prince wouldn’t be angry.

“Xuanji, do you mean I should acknowledge Changyu and reunite with him?”

The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty continued.

“Your Majesty, it’s a good thing to reunite with your son, why are you so conflicted?”

Taishang Xuanji was smart enough to know that it was only a matter of time before the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty and the Tenth Prince acknowledged each other. Hence, he wouldn’t refute.

As for the Crown Prince…

He was not at all worried that the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty would strip the Crown Prince off of his t.i.tle because of the Tenth Prince. After all, the Crown Prince had been holding authority in the imperial palace for years and was in charge of the dynasty’s affairs too. Besides, he had been born and bred in the palace.

Even if the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty wanted to make Su Changyu the emperor, the members of the court wouldn’t agree to it.

They would only approve if the Crown Prince had committed a heinous crime.

Otherwise, he would be able to ascend to the throne without doing anything.

“Okay, in that case, I will reunite with Changyu. When we finish the matter at hand, I’ll let the Crown Prince ascend to the throne so that I can enjoy some quality time with my son.”

The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty laughed in a pleasant mood.

As soon as he said that, Taishang Xuanji’s expression changed, and immediately afterwards, he knelt on the ground.

“Your Majesty is wise.”

Taishang Xuanji was elated.

He had taken a step back and managed to achieve the outcome of the Crown Prince’s advanced succession of the throne.

That was a good thing as there was now a balance between the Tenth Prince and the Crown Prince.

After all, the Crown Prince was set to take the throne, so there was nothing for him to be worried about.

However, at this moment, someone spoke up outside the main hall.

“Reporting! Your Majesty, someone is asking to see you outside the hall, it’s Lord Xuanji’s servant who said that something has happened to his family.”

The eunuch exclaimed.

It broke the silence in the main hall.

As soon as he said that, Taishang Xuanji couldn’t help but be dumbfounded.

‘Something happened to my family?’

‘What happened?’

His eyes were full of curiosity and the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was curious.

‘Why did something crop up out of nowhere?’

“What happened?”

The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty asked.

“Your Majesty, I heard that a man is here to reunite with his father and he claimed to be Lord Xuanji’s illegitimate son.”

The eunuch continued

However, after hearing his words, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty and Taishang Xuanji were stunned.

‘Illegitimate son?’

‘To look for a relative?’

‘Huh?’
