At this moment, a messenger rushed to the city gate of the Imperial Capital.

The city guard was about to stop him when he saw the messenger take out his token and shout at the top of his lungs.

“Urgent battle report for 800 miles!”

Baixin, who was near the city gate, hurriedly made way. The city guards also retreated, not daring to stop him.

They looked at the back of the messenger as he sped away and discussed softly.

“Where did the battle report come from?” “Don’t tell me there’s going to be a battle?”

“I don’t know. I hope it’s a false alarm. Don’t fight.”

The messenger rode wildly through the city.

By the time he reached the palace gate, the horse was so tired that it could not stand steadily and fell to the ground.

The messenger fell.

Ignoring the pain, he got up on all fours, raised the token that represented his status, and roared at the imperial guards in front of the palace gate.

“Battle Report! Urgent Battle Report for 800 miles!” Because he shouted so hard, his voice changed.

The imperial guards checked the token and hurriedly opened the palace door.

At this moment, Xiao Juan was walking out of the palace.

He paused as the messenger ran past him.

He had heard the messenger’s roar too. He had a bad feeling.

Could there be a battle at the border?

Thinking of this, Xiao Juan immediately quickened his pace.

After leaving the palace, he rode back to the Langjun Imperial Palace.

Niaoniao was not in the residence. After asking, he found out that she had gone to the Deng residence.

Hence, Xiao Juan immediately went out and rode to the Deng Residence.

When he arrived at the Deng residence, the sun had already set and the sky was gradually turning dark.

In the study, Yu Niaoniao placed the two letters back into the mahogany box.

Seeing Deng Yuchuan’s grief, she knew that now was not the time to say these words, but she still asked.

“Since you already know the truth, do you still plan to enter the palace to see the Empress Dowager?”

Deng Yuchuan was silent.

He had traveled thousands of miles to the Imperial Capital to confront Deng Yuluo and figure out why Li Niang had died.

Now that the truth was in front of him, his goal had been achieved.

There was no need for him to confront Deng Yuluo again.

But he was unwilling to stop.

Li Niang had died so tragically. He wanted justice for her.

But the other party was the Empress Dowager.

Although the emperor was guilty of the same crime as the commoners, that was just talk. Deng Yuchuan knew very well that reality would not be so beautiful. The Empress Dowager was the biological mother of the emperor and a woman standing at the peak of power.

If he wanted to convict the Empress Dowager, it was no different from taking chestnuts from the fire. If he was not careful, he would attract trouble.

Moreover, this matter involved the emperor’s background.

Once the Empress Dowager’s crimes were proven, everyone would know that the emperor was not legitimate.

The emperor would never allow this to happen.

Deng Yuchuan was already half-buried. He was not afraid of death, but the entire Deng family was standing behind him.

If Deng Yuluo was convicted of confusing the royal bloodline, the Deng family would definitely suffer. The hundred-year foundation accumulated by their ancestors might be destroyed in his hands.

At this moment, Deng Yuchuan understood many things.

His father should have known the truth.

The reason why Deng Yuluo could successfully pass the examination during the talent show back then was because of the Deng family.

Otherwise, it would not explain how a weak woman like Deng Yuluo could pass the layers of screening.

His father knew everything. He had even been Deng Yuluo’s accomplice.

He tied the future of the Deng family and Deng Yuluo together to stabilize the Deng family’s foundation.

It was not that he did not want to care about Li Niang’s life, but compared to the entire Deng family, Li Niang’s fate alone did not seem so important.

This was cold, but this was reality.

That was why his father said that he was not only Li Niang’s father, but also the head of the Deng family. He had to take into account the future of the entire Deng family.

And ?ctnndino in hic fathor’e

He had to face the same choice as his father.

Was he desperate to seek justice for Li Niang?

Or should he pretend that nothing had happened to preserve the Deng family’s long-term prosperity?

After a long time, Deng Yuchuan spoke slowly, his voice difficult.

“What do you plan to do, Princess Consort?”

Yu Niaoniao said without hesitation, “I want to fulfill Li Niang’s last wish and let the truth be revealed to the world. I want the mastermind to be executed. I have to make the perpetrator pay!”

Deng Yuchuan said, “Have you ever thought that you might put the people around you in danger? For example, Duke Lang is already in a difficult situation in the court. If you insist on revealing the truth, not only will Duke Lang’s future be ruined, but he might even lose his life.”

Thinking of Xiao Juan, Yu Niaoniao’s emotions were complicated, and her voice became much softer.

“I’ll do my best to keep him safe.”

Deng Yuchuan said, “It’s impossible for you to achieve the best of both worlds. Are you going to swallow your anger for the living or uphold justice for the dead? You can only choose one of the two.”

Yu Niaoniao was silent.

This choice was too difficult.

The atmosphere in the study became extremely oppressive.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door and Deng Luyun’s voice came in.

“Grandpa, Duke Lang is here.”

The atmosphere in the room eased a little.

Yu Niaoniao found her voice.

“I should go back.”

Deng Yuchuan placed his hands on the arms of his chair and prepared to stand up to send the guest off.

Yu Niaoniao hurriedly said, “There’s no need to send me off.”

However, Deng Yuchuan insisted on sending her out of the study.

When Deng Luyun saw his grandfather come out, he hurriedly went forward to help him.

The grandfather and grandson bowed to Xiao Juan.

Xiao Juan nodded slightly at the two of them before holding Niaoniao’s hand and leaving the Deng Residence.

After the two of them left, Deng Yuchuan locked himself in the study and read the will left behind by Li Niang. He could not fall asleep for the entire night.

Yu Niaoniao and Xiao Juan returned to the Langjun Imperial Palace.

At this time, Granny Xiu Yan had already gotten someone to prepare a sumptuous meal for them.

But Niaoniao had no appetite.

Xiao Juan looked at her troubled expression and took the initiative to ask.

“What happened to you?”

Yu Niaoniao hesitated before telling him the contents of the will left behind by Li Niang.

After Xiao Juan heard that, he was naturally very surprised.

Although he had long guessed that Feng Lianghan was Li Niang’s child, he did not expect Feng Lianghan’s biological father to be the late emperor.

No wonder Feng Lianghan was killed.

Regardless of whether Feng Lianghan knew the truth back then, just his background was enough to become a huge problem for Empress Dowager Deng. She definitely had to eliminate him.

Yu Niaoniao poked the rice in her bowl with her chopsticks and said slowly.

“I want the truth to be out. I want justice for Mother and my stepfather, but I’m worried that doing so will put you in danger.”

Xiao Juan said, “From the moment I married you, I was already prepared to live and die with you. You just have to do what you want. You don’t have to worry about me.”

Yu Niaoniao felt a lump in her throat.

She quickly lowered her head and wiped her eyes with the back of her hand.

She murmured something.

“Thank you..”
