Chapter 666: Chapter 399 Honest

Li Nuo stood dumbfounded.

Zhao Che is his and Zhiyi’s child?

As a father, he knew nothing about it.

After thinking it over, there’s only one possibility.

No wonder those dreams felt so real; they weren’t dreams at all!

Zhao Zhiyi lowered her head and softly said, "After ascending the throne, they urged me to marry quickly. The first person I thought of was you. It was then that I understood my own feelings..."

"I know it’s impossible for the two of us—the Emperor of Zhao Country can’t marry a man who’s already wed."

"But I can’t marry anyone else. In order to have someone to inherit the throne in the future, I had no choice."

"After becoming pregnant, I asked the State Preceptor to use Yin Yang Technique to make him born early, hoping to hide it from everyone. But... I didn’t expect him to look so much like you."

"It’s all my fault. I can explain to Yiren and the others. I will bear all consequences."

...

Li Nuo was momentarily speechless.

Zhao Che is his child, the younger brother of Li Yan, Li Nian, and Li Zhi...

Turns out, long ago, he had slept with the Empress.

No, the Empress had slept with him.

According to the existing law of Zhao Country, if Li Nuo pursued her responsibility, she would be sentenced!

Of course, she is the Empress; no one has the power or qualification to judge her.

...

A moment later.

King Zhao Mansion.

All the women were gathered.

Yiren looked at Zhao Zhiyi and asked, "Zhiyi, what exactly do you want to talk about, all mysterious-like..."

Zhao Zhiyi looked at them and said, "I know you have always been curious about whose child Zhao Che is. Actually, your guesses were right; Zhao Che is not King Sheng elder brother’s child..."

As the words fell, the gaze of Jiaren Anning and Yiren Su Qing turned towards Li Nuo.

They had suspected for a while that Zhao Che wasn’t King Sheng’s son.

Especially in the past few months, as he grew and looked more and more like Li Nuo, despite the impossibility, they couldn’t help but connect it to Li Nuo.

Li Nuo’s lips moved a bit, not knowing what to say.

Should he say he didn’t know either, and he got slept by the Empress in his dreams, not just once but several times?

In front of so many people, he couldn’t speak those words.

The Empress was no less alarming in her speech, continued with her head down, "His name should be Li Che. The rumors among the people are not wrong; he is the child of Li Nuo and me..."

The room fell silent, with no one speaking, but their gazes towards Li Nuo were scrutinizing.

Was he keeping it from them all along?

Zhao Zhiyi raised her head and said, "Do not blame him. He was just like you, uninformed. I only did this after he fell asleep..."

Upon her explanation, Yiren was the first to doubt, blurting out, "Impossible, he’s always sleeping with me every night..."

Right after she spoke, she suddenly realized her slip and immediately lowered her head, remaining silent.

Zhao Zhiyi looked at her, apologetically said, "Do you remember, before you left Zhao Country, you had slept with me for a few nights..."

Yiren froze for a moment, finally realizing something, murmuring, "No wonder, no wonder you weren’t there when I woke up..."

After coming to her senses, she was both angry and frustrated, looking at her fiercely, "How could you do this? I considered you my best friend, and you actually, actually..."

Su Qing rubbed her temples, sighing inwardly, "Oh Yiren, oh Yiren, when will you learn to be more cautious..."

Zhao Zhiyi’s face showed a hint of guilt, saying, "I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. Don’t blame him, he hasn’t done anything wrong to you."

She had planned to silently raise the child but hadn’t expected his appearance to completely inherit his father’s.

Rather than letting them suspect him and disrupt their marital relationship, it was better to confess openly.

Everyone’s expressions were somewhat complicated.

In Yiren’s heart, Zhiyi was the friend second only to Phoenix. She made her a Princess, hosted her the grandest wedding, but it was her best friend who, in her absence, slept with her husband and bore him a child?

Betrayed by one of her best friends, she should be furious.

But actually, she wasn’t that angry.

After all, it wasn’t the first time someone had taken her husband, including her own sister, and she had gotten used to it.

She just felt indignant; they were the true couple by both parental decision and matchmaker, yet why did she have to wait last in line?

Fortunately, there was still Phoenix behind her...

Jiaren looked at Zhao Zhiyi, also having conflicting feelings.

Honestly, she was quite grateful to the Empress.

To help her achieve Grandmaster sooner, she summoned all the Martial Arts Sects throughout the country in the name of the court, holding a Martial Arts Tournament, allowing her to peruse the court’s various Martial Path Classics.

Apart from her husband, no one treated her so well.

Yet, she kept this from them, doing such an unforgivable act.

Perhaps, even she herself didn’t realize that she envied and somewhat resented the Empress.

Envied her for being the ruler of a vast empire, possessing the continent’s top strength, able to protect her husband and shelter their entire family, jealous that her child resembled her husband so much...

Anning cast a glance at Li Nuo by her side, seemingly not surprised by the news.

Having experienced it firsthand, she knew very well that the more outrageous a rumor was, the closer it was to the truth.

Towards the Empress, she felt a small admiration.

As a fellow member of the Imperial Family, she could understand Zhiyi’s situation.
