Chapter 297: Honesty (Second Update)

"Just by virtue of this, I am the only one in the world who dares to take nine cities as a dowry, if I am not sincere, don't you want me to lose my wife and break the city in a fit of anger?" Shang Jue looked at the morning and evening, with a smile between his eyebrows.

Somewhere in the bottom of his heart, he just smiled on his face, "The nine cities are all on the border of your Yan Kingdom, and they are nominally mine, but the people and garrisons there recognize you, and the prince's high-sounding business is really good!"

Shang Jue listened but was not annoyed, "It's nominally yours, but it's actually yours, this is not a high-sounding sound." ”

Chaoxi snorted softly, her eyes lowered for a moment, she didn't know what she was thinking, Shang Jue simply sat down in front of her, picked up her teacup and took a sip, her expression was comfortable, it was clearly the same tea, but her teacup had a different taste, Chaoxi was no longer surprised by his move, so he looked at him for a moment and suddenly said, "You haven't gone back for so long, and there is no letter from King Yan's palace?

Chaoxi's tone seemed to be asking him about his family affairs, Shang Jue put down the teacup and looked directly at her eyes, "King Yan can't take care of me in her illness, as for Queen Yan, she naturally can't control me, the letter is coming, but it doesn't hinder it." ”

Chaoxi leaned over and picked up the teapot to add tea to Shang Jue, "How is King Yan's illness?"

Chaoxi still remembers that when she was in Huaiyin, she had tested the relationship between him and King Yan, and the answer at that time was not good, but at that time, there was a lot of suspicion and estrangement between the two, so the response was not counted, she asked again now, and the answer should be different.

"My father is an old disease, a year ago he began to recuperate in bed without asking about political affairs, and now it is the same, the disease is difficult to cure for a long time, and he can only be raised slowly, he is not in a hurry, and he will know when you arrive at the Yan Palace. ”

Shang Jue looked at Chaoxi very calmly, and Chaoxi poured tea and straightened up again, "That'...... What about Queen Yan?"

Although it was a casual tone, the slight pause between the words still made Shang Jue hear the clue, he put one hand on the table, leaned over and looked at Chaoxi, "Everyone knows that Queen Yan is not my biological mother. ”

Chaoxi raised his eyebrows and nodded again, "Of course I know." ”

Shang Jue curled his lips, "Since you know, why do you ask?"

The many power struggles in the royal family are not unaware, since they are not the biological mother, the relationship is a little complicated, and the morning and evening looked at him with clear eyes, "It is because I am not the biological mother that I have this question." ”

Shang Jue curled her lips, "The queen was as famous as Princess Zhuang Ji back then, and she was just beautiful, she was really a very kind person, you will know it when you go to Yan Kingdom, and she also wants to see you." ”

Shang Jue calmly thought that it was not like a fraud, but there were big doubts in the bottom of his heart.

Shang Jue and Queen Yan are not biological mothers and sons, but Shang Jue's tone when he mentioned her at this time was very cordial, could it be ...... Is it really as the rumors say? Chaoxi shook his head in his heart, "Princess Yan is the princess of the year, I know that she can be as famous as the queen mother, and she must be of extraordinary appearance when she thinks about it, and if she sees it, she will naturally be honored." ”

Shang Jue laughed, "Xixi, you will be a family in the future, why are you so polite." ”

In the future, it will be a family, but it is not now, not to mention that if it is really not a biological mother and son, wouldn't the princess doubt his intentions as a son of this world? Or is it that although the two are not biological mother and son, they are like biological mother and son?

Chaoxi has a lot of doubts in his heart, thinking that Shang Jue was exiled at the beginning, he was only found three years ago, and he ascended to the position of the son of the world after a year of recovery, and he mastered the power of Yan in two years, not his biological mother and son, and King Yan was sick in bed, which seemed to be inextricably linked, but Chaoxi couldn't think of it for a while, not only that, she couldn't even find traces of him wandering outside, for example, she left Baling and went to Zhao after Huaiyin, but what about him?

I didn't know anything about it, and the questions in my heart were even greater, only a very small part of her mind was exposed, but Shang Jue understood her, so she naturally saw it, Shang Jue's eyes were narrow, "What do you want to ask?"

Chaoxi pursed his lips and said bluntly, "I went to check your past traces, but there was no clue." ”

Shang Jue was not surprised at all, and even chuckled, "Are you curious where I went when I was outcast?"

Chaoxi didn't speak, but he acquiesced, Shang Jue's smiling gaze fell, and suddenly fell on her chest, his gaze didn't give people a sense of offense, but the position he looked at was too ...... Just thinking about it, Shang Jue leaned over and approached him again, not only that, he raised his hand and fell towards her chest, holding his breath, looking at the hand that was getting closer and closer to his chest, he subconsciously clenched his fists, if he dared to act rudely, then the chilling cicada in her hand was not vegetarian-

"Do you remember this Youlu Jue?"

The side of her neck was cold, and Shang Jue took out the Youlu Jue she was carrying.

Chaoxi glanced down at Youlu Jue in his palm, his fist loosened, and his heart jumped inexplicably, what was she thinking just now, she actually thought ...... Morning and night captured the traces of the light exhalation, "Naturally remember." ”

Shang Jue smiled again and said, "Then do you remember where I found this thing from?"

The pupils of the morning and evening turned slightly, and suddenly the bottom of the eyes lit up, "You said that you went to Penglai to seek the Lord of the Valley of Forgetting Worries......"

"The deer was born in the south, trapped in the east" The eight-character divination is what Shang Jue asked for in the Valley of Forgotten Worries, with the reputation of the Valley of Forgotten Worries, the statement of the day and night was a little good, could it be said that Shang Jue lived temporarily in the Valley of Forgotten Worries after being outcast?

Morning and night were slightly surprised, Shang Jue had already nodded and smiled, "When I was young, I fell into the Valley of Forgotten Worries, and was later found by the people in the palace, so I went back to Yan Kingdom to get the throne, Penglai Island is unknown to most people in the world, and your people naturally can't find anything." ”

The shock in the bottom of the heart of the day and night came one after another, it turned out to be in the Valley of Forgetting Worries on Penglai Island! No wonder the people she sent out got nothing, that Penglai Island is known as the world's fairy mountain on the shore of the East China Sea, and there is a Forgotten Valley on the island, where the people of the Forgotten Valley have lived for generations, and the reputation of the Forgotten Valley was raised when Rong Di violated the realm a hundred years ago, and the owner of the Valley of Forgotten Sorrow at that time saved Da Yin from fire and water with his own strength, so after knowing Penglai Island, some people did not dare to explore the whereabouts of the island with awe, and some people heard the rumors that there were gold and silver treasures on the island to find the elixir of immortality, and the people who could go to sea to find it were ten* Died at sea, to this day, Penglai Forget Worry Island has long been a legend, and I have never seen anyone who has anything to do with Forget Worry Island.

Chaoxi looked at Shang Jue in surprise, Shang Jue smiled gently, "You don't seem to believe it." ”

"It's not just unbelievable, that Penglai Island is really the legendary place, and the Valley of Forgotten Sorrow and the people of the valley are said to be like immortals, how did you get there? and how were you found?"

Shang Jue smiled even deeper, "I have forgotten how I got there, as for how I was found, it was not that I was found, but that I asked them to find it, the old valley lord on the island can know the heavens and tell me that the time has come." ”

Old Valley Owner...... Chaoxi's eyes flashed brightly, "So you have lived with the Forgotten Valley people for so many years?"

Shang Jue chuckled, "Let's live with one or two clansmen......

One or two clansmen raised their eyebrows, and Shang Jue said, "You also know this person......

She also knew it, her eyes widened, and her heart suddenly had an idea......

Shang Jue smiled and nodded, "Yes, it's Fulan." ”

I was stunned for a while, and I didn't react for a long time, Fu Lan turned out to be a member of the Forget Worry Valley Clan? !

No wonder he can pinch and calculate, no wonder he thinks he doesn't like the power and fame, no wonder he will be taken by Shang Jue's side.

While thinking about it, her expression did not change for a long time, Shang Jue's smile deepened, and she couldn't help but raise her hand and pinch her cheek, "You know it all now......?"

Chaoxi only felt a heat on his cheeks, and before he had time to dodge Shang Jue's hand, he took it back.

Nodding, I don't know if I was still immersed in surprise, I forgot about my anger, and only said slowly, "I see, so everything is explained......"

Shang Jue said "um", and then looked at Chaoxi with a deep gaze, Chaoxi was uncomfortable being looked at by him so closely, he couldn't help but lean back two points, Shang Jue bent his lips and said, "Since I told you, shouldn't you tell me too?"

"What?" suddenly asked, not knowing where he came from.

Two doubts appeared in Shang Jue's eyes, "I don't know when you became the master of the Ink Pavilion, it stands to reason that you have the status of a princess and have been degraded out of Baling, there is no reason why you will come into contact with the people of the Ink Pavilion." ”

After a pause, "Unless, the ink pavilion has already involved the royal family." ”

She was so disgusted with suspicion, but she was so old and always in suspicion, Shicai suddenly blurted out a straight question, but she didn't expect Shang Jue to really answer, since he answered her question, then should she answer his words.

In a world of day and night, anything can be weighed.

She has her own scheming, but she also has her own rules of fairness.
