An even more sensational news had spread. It was that the Fifth Prince, Yuchi Kingdom's Yuchi Kingdom, was not dead. Not only was he not dead, he had even returned to the palace.

This matter gave Yun Ruo Lu a fright.

What was even more strange was that not only did the Emperor not imprison him, he even dismissed his crimes and allowed him to return to the Fifth Prince's Estate.

However, Yuchi Xuan didn't let Yun Ruo go back, but Liu Yanhan did. Upon hearing this news, Yun Ruo's heart thumped in her chest.

She had almost lost her mind and wanted to return to the Fifth Prince's estate. Right now, all she wanted was to be with Yuchi Chen.

She wanted to leave the palace. No matter how strict Yuchi Xuan's guard was, she wanted to at least meet him once to confirm whether or not he was Yuchi Chen!

Her heart was beating very fast, but she couldn't leave the palace right now.

Fortunately, on this day, she had received good news. So Yuchi Xuan had hosted a banquet at the palace to entertain the Fifth Prince, and many of the nobles had gone to attend. Of course, Yun Ruo Lu, as the emperor's concubine, naturally had to attend as well.

She wore a simple dress, and the banquet was set for the evening in the imperial garden.

Scarlet Yu was there as well. She sat beside Yuchi Xuan and waited for a while before hearing someone announce the Fifth Prince's name. She saw the face she had been yearning for day and night.

That person was getting closer and closer to her. She almost stood up, but Lan'er, who was beside her, pressed her shoulder. It wouldn't be good if she lost her composure at this moment.

"Fifth brother, I didn't think that you would be able to survive such a great calamity, you must have a blessing after all …" Yuchi Xuan said to Yuchi Chen.

"Brother Huang, you're in serious trouble. It's just a small accident. This time, I've come back to retrieve what belongs to me." Yuchi Chen said as she looked at Yuchi Xuan.

Yun Ruo Lu naturally knew that Yuchi Chen was referring to the throne that he had taken back from her. Liu Yanhan had been standing beside Yuchi Chen the entire time. When she turned around to return to her seat, she glanced towards Yun Ruo's direction.

Yun Ruo Lu stared fixedly at Yuchi Chen, but Yuchi Chen didn't even glance at her.

"Fifth brother, this is my new concubine, Yun Fei." Yuchi Xuan suddenly introduced himself to Yuchi Chen.

Unexpectedly, Yuchi Chen was surprised to see Yun Ruo Lu's expression. He seemed to have something to say to her, but he did not. Seeing the look on Yuchi Chen's face, Yun Ruo felt that the person in front of her was Yuchi Chen. Only, he seemed to be lacking something. Although his movements were similar to that of Yuchi Chen, and even some of his habits were the same as his.

But she didn't know what was missing from him, only that she was excited to see him only because of his face, as if she felt nothing but that. What was going on? Did he not like Yuchi Chen? Don't love him anymore? But no, she couldn't tell what was wrong either. Although the person in front of her resembled Yuchi Chen, she didn't feel the least bit moved.

Using the excuse that she was a little uncomfortable, Yun Ruo Lu left the banquet early and walked in the imperial garden.

At this moment, he ran into Yuchi Chen.

"You Ruo, you really don't know me anymore? "I am Yuchi Chen …" As Yuchi Chen spoke to Yunliu, he held Yunliu's hand. Yunliu barely resisted as she followed him.

"Fifth Brother, where do you want to go, to bring my beloved concubine away?" Yuchi Xuan appeared in front of them and asked.

"She was my secondary wife in the first place …" Yuchi Chen said.

"Your secondary wife died a long time ago, and the one here is my imperial concubine! Fifth brother, you'd better show some respect and call her sister-in-law … " Yuchi Xuan said.

"Humph!" I won't scream. Next time, I'll definitely bring her out. " After speaking, Yuchi Chen released Yun Ruo Lu's hand.

Yuchi Xuan glanced at Yun Ruo Lu, then turned to ignore her.

It gave her the feeling that she had only played a part with them.

She stood on the bridge and watched the carp swimming in the pool by the light of the moon. A piece of clothing draped over her body, and the person who came was Scarlet Jade.

"The wind is cold tonight, be careful not to catch a cold." Scarlet was very gentle to her. She felt a warmth in her heart.

"The person I met today was the Fifth Prince. He truly looks like a genius." Scarlet Jade said.

Yun Ruo Lu did not reply, she only looked at Chi Yu and said: "If you want me to believe that he is the Fifth Prince, I would rather believe that you are the Fifth Prince."

She looked at Scarlet Jade's changing expression, not knowing what he was thinking. He didn't say anything. He put on his cloak and left, saying to Lan'er, "Lan, I'm going back."

Lan'er looked at Scarlet Jade and followed Yun Ruo away.

Yun Ruo Lu was now certain that that Yuchi Chen was a fake, and that he definitely wasn't Yuchi Chen. This was because the real Yuchi Chen would not let go as long as she held her hand tightly.

That person was only someone who had used a disguise technique to impersonate Yuchi Chen. Fortunately, she felt that he was Yuchi Chen.

But she would rather believe that the man was Yuchi Chen, and she wanted him back so that she would not be a walking corpse like she was now.

She suddenly felt very lonely. Tears welled up in her eyes.

"Miss Yun." Lan'er couldn't help but ask when she saw Yun Ruo crying.

"I really hope that the one who comes back this time is the Fifth Prince." She just said it.

"Miss Yun, there's no need for you to take it seriously. I think the Fifth Prince is really not dead yet." Lan'er consoled Yun Luo.

"Na Lan, tell me, why didn't he come to find me?" Yun Ruo Lu seemed to be asking herself.

Lan-Er didn't answer. That day, she took a bottle of wine and drank it all by herself. Then Lan-Er helped her to sleep.

However, what she didn't know was that on the rooftop, there was a pair of eyes staring at her, but he saw that she didn't say anything. The moment Yun Ruo Lu fell down drunk, Lan'er looked at the rooftop, but didn't say anything.

The next day, Yun Ruo woke up as it was late in the morning. She knew that she had drunk too much last night. Liu Yanhan arrived at the Jade Cloud Hall. He seemed to have come to see her.

"How did it feel to see the prince yesterday?" Liu Yanhan said to her.

"Nothing." Yun Ruo Lu looked at Liu Yan Han as if she didn't care about what she said.

"It seems you already know. Perhaps you can hide it from Yuchi Xuan, but not from you." Liu Yanhan said to her.

"That Fifth Prince is fake." Yun Ruo said leisurely.

"Haha, indeed, you truly love the Fifth Prince. That's right, he's a fake …" Liu Yanhan laughed.

"Why are you looking for me?" to show that you have earned the favor of the fake Prince? " Yun Ruo said leisurely.

"Of course not. I'm not that bored. I just hope that you can cooperate with me for the sake of making Yuchi Xuan believe him." Liu Yanhan said.

"Why should I help you?" Yun Ruo said leisurely.

"Just because you hate Yuchi Xuan …"

"Alright, I agree."

Actually, Liu Yanhan's request was very simple. She wanted Yunruo to accompany her and that fake Yuchi Chen in an act. She said that in a few days, the fake Yuchi Chen would pretend to take her out of the palace.

Naturally, when this performance began a few days later, it was naturally that fake Yuchi Chen who led her out of the palace. However, he was stopped by Yuchi Xuan. This was within their expectations. They had done so just to make sure that this Yuchi Xuan was telling the truth.

However, Yuchi Xuan's suspicions were still too strong. He had asked Yuchi Chen to drink alone and had also reminded him of his childhood. This matter had been decided upon when the fake Yuchi Chen had been suddenly taken away from the imperial court today.

This made Liu Yanhan feel a bit flustered. She ran over to Yun Ruo Lu in hopes that she would snatch the two of them away, but it obviously didn't work. Before Yun Ruo Lu could see them, she was escorted away by Yuchi Xuan's guards. She only glanced at the distant shadow of the fake prince.

The guard also told her that if she wanted nothing to do, it was best not to act rashly.

Things should have been exposed, but this time, it was very strange. The fake prince actually returned home in the evening, seemingly without any flaws. Could it be that he remembered everything that happened when he was young?

During the night, when Liu Yanhan asked about Yuchi Chen, he said that someone had robbed him and given him an envelope when he was about to drink with Yuchi Xuan. There was an old story written on the envelope for him to remember, and he said Yuchi Xuan would definitely ask him about it.

After he read the letter, he recorded down the matter. Unexpectedly, Yuchi Xuan was actually discussing this matter with him.

Liu Yanhan felt very strange. It seemed that someone was helping them from the shadows. She asked, "What exactly is it?"

"I think it was when they were kids playing with a little girl." The fake Yuchi Chen answered vaguely.

This made Liu Yanhan's eyes suddenly light up. She seemed to have realized something and started to smile.

While Liu Yanhan was laughing, Yun Ruo was also wondering what was going on. What was the matter that Yuchi Xuan was drinking with her?

Naturally, she was unable to figure it out even if she wanted to, but she had no way of knowing. He could only give up.

For the past few days, the imperial palace had been rather quiet. The empress had been favored by the emperor every night, and had really become the emperor's sole pet. Other than the addition of the Fifth Prince, everything else looked very calm. However, this kind of peace was too comfortable. Normally, there would be a huge storm coming.
