In fact, Prince Inuo did not tell the truth. He saw Xia Luotong leaving the seat and then chased him out. It was not a coincidence.
He couldn't help it anymore and couldn't help but want to approach her and talk to her face to face. If possible, see if he could ask for some useful information...
"It's okay. I would like to thank Prince Ino for helping me just now." Xia Luotong thanked him with a smile, and the look on his face became more sincere.
No matter why Prince Ino helped him or why he appeared to be close to him, it was still true that he helped him.
What's more, I didn't feel any malice from him, and there was even more kindness from him.
Seeing the smile on Xia Luotong's face, Prince Ino was dazed for a moment.
With the bright moonlight and the light of the lanterns on the corridor, the eyes of the woman in front of me seem to reflect the stars in the sky. They are bright and charming, making people want to be intoxicated unconsciously...
But the next moment, Prince Inuo suddenly came back to his senses. He was surprised and happy because he discovered that the color of Xia Luotong's eyes was actually different from ordinary Zhou people!
Unlike his own clear blue, Xia Luotong's eyes were a deep and clear navy blue, and the color was not as obvious as his own.
This faint blue, if it weren't for the close distance and the perfect light, it wouldn't be hard to see!
Since there is such a look in his eyes, it means that Xia Luotong is not a Zhou person of pure blood, but a mixed blood!
Combined with her appearance...
Prince Ino could hardly hold back his excitement!
Suppressing the turmoil in his mind, he tried hard to maintain his expression and said with a smile: "Princess, you don't have to be polite, it's just a little effort. And it seems that I am troublesome, and the princess already knows it."
"Anyway, it's Prince Ino's kindness, and I appreciate it." Xia Luotong replied with a smile.
She was indeed grateful in her heart. After all, under such circumstances, she was still willing to help with words, but it was really rare. After all, Prince Inuo did not know the truth like Xi Menghan and others.
What's more important is that this Prince Ino is not from Zhou Dynasty, and he has no friendship with her before, so it is unexpected for him to open his mouth.
But even though he said that, Xia Luotong also had doubts. For example, why did Prince Ino help him?
Also, although the strange behavior of Prince Ino just now was not obvious, she actually saw it.
Why are you so excited all of a sudden?
Prince Ino smiled and nodded. He didn't say more about this matter, but turned to talk about something else.
"I heard that the princess's biological father is the Minister of Rites, Mr. Xia, but her biological mother is not Mrs. Xia today."
"Seeing them humiliating you like this today is really disgusting. Doesn't the princess' biological mother have any objections to them?"
He asked half bluntly, half tentatively. Although the question was somewhat abrupt, the words did not make anyone feel uncomfortable.
In fact, Prince Inuo had checked Xia Luotong's family background. This was not a secret in the capital. Most people knew that Xia Luotong's background had been criticized for a long time.
What he wanted to investigate was naturally not the superficial information, but a deeper level, because when he investigated the Sun family in Anyuan Town, he discovered some doubts.
But there were no clues to these doubts, as if they had just been broken off. It was precisely because of this that he was so anxious.
What he said just now was just a guide to the next topic.
Xia Luotong knew that Prince Inuo was testing her, but why didn't she try to test him?
He was never nice without any reason, but since Prince Ino helped her so much and made no secret of his kindness towards her, she naturally had doubts.
Xia Luotong smiled calmly and said: "There is no one in my mother's clan, and I am the only one left. And even if my mother's clan is still there, it can't compete with the Xia family."
She was telling the truth. The Sun family were just ordinary merchants, and at best they were relatively wealthy. How could they compete with the second-rank officials of the imperial court?
"I'm sorry." Prince Ino expressed regret at first, and then said, "I wonder where the princess's mother's family is from?"
"It's not a famous family, the Sun family of Anyuan Town, just businessmen." Xia Luotong replied calmly.
"It turns out that the princess's mother's surname is Sun." Prince Ino muttered as if unintentionally.
Xia Luotong knew what he meant and deliberately murmured: "It may not be Sun. Who knows, it's been more than 20 years."
The two of them were already close, so Xia Luotong's words, although not loud, were clearly heard by Prince Ino.
Prince Inuo paused, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, because there was a lot of information in Xia Luotong's words!
The surname may not be Sun, but what is the surname?
Since her surname is not Sun, doesn't it mean that her mother may not be a child of the Sun family? So what is your true identity?
Besides, the time of more than twenty years that Xia Luotong mentioned does not match up!
Xia Luotong is now eighteen years old, and Sun is close to forty anyway. What is the number that comes from these more than twenty years?
Prince Inuo's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly remembered something. More than 20 years ago, it happened to be about the same time that the Sun family moved to Anyuan Town!
So what happened to the Sun family before moving to Anyuan Town?
Also, more than twenty years ago, wouldn't it be him...
The two of them were silent for a while, and Prince Ino was unexpectedly distracted. Xia Luotong glanced at his expression and had some suspicions in his mind.
However, no one has any clues at the moment, and it is not easy for her to get along with Prince Ino. After all, she is still in the middle of a birthday party, and there are often people around her.
"I have been out for a long time, so the prince will be worried, so I will go back first." Xia Luotong said goodbye to Prince Inuo.
Prince Inuo was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to his senses and said goodbye to Xia Luotong with a smile.
Watching Xia Luotong's figure gradually disappearing, the excitement in his heart continued unabated. He didn't leave in a hurry until no one could be seen at all.
Xia Luotong, who returned to the birthday banquet, told Wu Zechen what had just happened. The two looked at each other and both had guesses.
"Is he confirming his identity? Looking for someone?" Wu Zechen asked with a frown.
At present, it seems that the prince of Gudan Kingdom has no ill intentions, otherwise he would not let Prince Ino investigate Xia Luotong's life experience.
"I look like him, and I always feel like he sees someone else's shadow in me." Xia Luotong said with some uncertainty.
"Is your mother related to the royal family of the Gudan Kingdom?" Wu Zechen analyzed, "According to the existing clues, your mother is of mixed race, but your grandmother is indeed from the Zhou Dynasty, and your grandfather also has many doubts."
