The next morning, Yu Yan went to the Funing Palace to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager. Coincidentally, Huangfu Chen's father, Prince Duan, was also at the Funing Palace.
Yu Yan walked into Fu Ning Palace and saw the empress dowager sitting on a soft stool. She also saw a strange man with a short beard standing beside her.
The man looked to be about fifty years old. He had a short beard, a kind face, and a radiant face. He looked energetic.
Yu Yan had never seen this man since she came to this unfamiliar Tianqi Dynasty. She wondered what his identity was for him to be in the Empress Dowager's Funing Palace.
However, judging from the man's attire, he did not look like an ordinary person at all. He must be an important person to be able to come to the Empress Dowager's Funing Palace. Yu Yan guessed that he might be a prince as well.
Moreover, from the moment she walked into the Funing Palace, this man seemed to have been staring at her intently without avoiding her gaze.
Yu Yan did not pay attention to the man, nor did she continue to guess his identity. She only glanced at him and walked to the empress dowager. She bowed slightly and said,""Your son greets mother."
"Xuan 'er is here." A gentle smile appeared on the empress dowager's face.
The empress dowager waved at Yuyan. Yuyan took a few steps forward and sat down beside the empress dowager.
After Yu Yan sat down, she raised her head and looked at the unfamiliar man standing not far away from her.
As soon as she raised her head, she met his gaze. Yu Yan was stunned.
Yu Yan looked at the unfamiliar man in front of her. For some reason, she felt a sense of familiarity. She felt that she must have a close relationship with him.
She recalled that ever since she came to the Funing Palace, this man had been standing still and staring at her as if he was thinking about something. She could see that there was a trace of excitement on his face.
" Mother..." Yu Yan furrowed her brows and turned to look at the empress dowager. She wanted to ask the empress dowager about the identity of this man.
"What's wrong?" The empress dowager looked at her and asked gently.
"Mother, who is he? Why is he in the Funing Palace? Ever since your son came here, he has been staring at your son. He is so engrossed, as if he is thinking about something?”Yu Yan leaned closer to the empress dowager and asked in a low voice.
When Yuyan mentioned King Duan, the empress dowager suddenly realized that Yuyan had lost her memories of the past. Naturally, she did not remember who King Duan was, which was why she felt unfamiliar with him.
The empress dowager glanced at King Duan, who was standing at the side. She then turned to Yu Yan and gently reminded her,""Xuan 'er, he's your uncle, your biological uncle, and also Chen' er's father, King Duan.”
"Uncle." Yu Yan quickly looked at King Duan, who was standing not far away from her, with a surprised expression.
It had been a few days since she arrived in Tianqi Nation, but she had never seen the Empress Dowager's older brother, Huangfu Chen's father, and her own uncle-King Duan.
"No wonder when I saw him just now, I felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. I felt that this person in front of me must have an inseparable relationship with me. However, I didn't expect that he was actually mother's biological brother, cousin's father, and my biological uncle.”After learning King Duan's true identity, Yu Yan couldn't help but feel surprised.
"Uncle." Yu Yan slowly stood up and looked at King Duan as she called out softly.
"Greetings, Princess." After King Duan regained his senses, he quickly bowed to Yu Yan.
A few days ago, Huangfu Chen had mentioned to him that Situ Zixuan had cut her wrists and committed suicide in her own Bright Sun Palace due to a setback in her relationship. After hearing this news, King Duan was extremely worried.
When he found out that Zi Xuan was out of danger and that she only needed a few days to fully recover, he was slightly relieved.
However, before he could completely relax, he learned from Huangfu Chen that Zi Xuan had forgotten everything that had happened after she woke up. He heard that when she first woke up, she didn't even recognize the Emperor and Empress Dowager.
After learning of this, King Duan's expression was the same as the Emperor and Empress Dowager's, one of disbelief.
After Huangfu Chen confirmed this, King Duan had no choice but to believe that Princess Zi Xuan had indeed lost her memories. She didn't even remember him or Huangfu Chen.
This was the first time Yu Yan had seen Huangfu Chen's father, King Duan, since she had arrived at the Tianqi Dynasty.
Two days ago, Yu Yan had only learned from Bing 'er and Ding Xiang that King Duan had doted on her when she was young and would often bring Huangfu Chen to visit her.
In the few days that she had been in the Tianqi Dynasty, she had actually forgotten that there was still her biological uncle outside the palace. Until now, she had not paid him a visit.
If she hadn't met King Duan by chance in the Empress Dowager's Funing Palace today, she really didn't know when she would have remembered this matter and be able to see her own uncle.
Yu Yan returned to the Empress Dowager's side and couldn't help but take a few more glances at King Duan. Only now did she realize that King Duan and Huangfu Chen looked quite similar.
Now that she knew King Duan's true identity, Yu Yan would not let go of this opportunity. Not only would she be able to get close to him, but she would also be able to get to know him better.
King Duan stayed in the Funing Palace for nearly an hour, even though they had only interacted for an hour.
Yu Yan still felt that King Duan was not as stern, cold, and unapproachable as she had imagined.
The first impression King Duan gave her was that he was approachable. He had a kind face and was definitely a loving and great father.
In the following conversation with her, King Duan was very warm and loving. Every word he said was close to her heart. He was even more concerned about her health than the empress dowager. He was even more anxious. This made Yuyan feel very touched.
It was difficult for her to associate this with the characters of the kings in modern ancient TV dramas.
But then again, in front of the Empress Dowager, the first impression King Duan gave her was that he was amiable.
Perhaps his highness wasn't like this in front of outsiders. King Duan should have the dignity of a highness.
After all, he was the empress dowager's brother and the emperor's uncle. His status was extraordinary.
"Princess Ruo Ling has arrived." Not long after, a loud shout came from outside.
As soon as he finished speaking, a girl in a long blue dress walked in from outside.
