Chapter 669: The bruises are revealed
Zhou Xianyu suddenly spoke out to defend Xiao Jinxuan, which was unexpected by everyone present.
After all, now everyone believes that Xiao Jinxuan is a descendant of the Beirong royal family, and the other party is the crown princess of the West Palace after more than a month.
And the person who advises this the most is understandably Huangfu Che.
He was worried that Xiao Jinxuan and Zhou Xianyu would be alone, and if they were stimulated to recover their memories and explain everything to each other, everything he planned would come to naught.
But even if he is in a hurry, Huang Fuche will still have to deal with the current poisoning case.
After all, Qingxiang is just a scapegoat, and he is the culprit who is hiding in the shadows.
And the reason why Huang Fu Che has endured it for twenty-seven years, but now it is difficult to tolerate Huang Fu Xi, in fact, in the final analysis, he is all for Xiao Jinxuan.
Just like what the **** and Xiao Jinxuan said, he wants to give all the honor in the world to the other party and make her the happiest woman.
Therefore, this promise not only contains Huang Fuche's beloved heart, but also he feels that only by taking the position of the monarch of Liang State and letting Xiao Jinxuan be crowned with a phoenix, so that he feels that it is enough.
Therefore, Huang Fuche, who never competes for imperial power, actually embed a little crane top red powder in his small nails that he deliberately left long recently.
Originally, he wanted to find an opportunity to quietly poison Huangfu Xi, but he didn't want Qingxiang to stand up for death by himself and provoke a storm.
For Qingxiang, a person who hurt Xiao Jinxuan a lot in the past, Huang Fuche actually had a grudge in his heart.
Therefore, this is why he secretly poisoned Qingxiang when he handed over the wine.
And just now, Huang Fuche seemed to get close to persuade Qingxiang, but in fact, he flicked the crane top red in his fingertips on Qingxiang's sleeve, so that the other party could not completely clear the suspicion of murdering his husband.
In this way, killing two birds with one stone, Huangfu Xi and Qingxiang were both solved, and Huangfu Che was quite satisfied with this.
But before Qingxiang was convicted, he still had the possibility of being recognized.
Therefore, he really wanted to step forward to stop Zhou Xianyu from taking Xiao Jinxuan away, but he had to endure it stubbornly.
After all, this will make Huang Fuche have to weaken his existence, and too much attention will be paid to him, which will only increase the possibility of him being exposed.
And letting Xiao Jinxuan leave was a trivial matter, and Emperor Rui, who was also anxious to appease Zhou Xianyu and didn't want to have a stiff relationship with Da Zhou because of Huangfuxi's death, immediately agreed.
Huangfu Che was anxious about this, but he had to take a few steps forward on his face, and thanked Zhou Xianyu with a chuckle and said:
"Cousin Lao is so worried about me, so the worry is annoying to send her back. Worry-free is weak, and it is difficult to travel at night to return to the West Palace quickly, so everything will be left to you. β
He didn't have a good impression of Zhou Xianyu, a native of Liang, so he was half grateful and half admonished Huang Fuche, he just nodded and didn't speak.
And this will be Xiao Jinxuan, who has already gotten up, although she is not afraid of the bloody scene in front of her.
But since Zhou Xianyu opened his mouth to take her away, Xiao Jinxuan didn't know why, so she stood up directly, and this would have already walked to the other party's side.
Looking at Zhou Xianyu and Xiao Jinxuan, who left together, such a matching figure, Huang Fuche only felt dazzling and turned his head.
And not to mention the main hall, Huangfu Che borrowed the hand of Qingxiang to get rid of Huangfu Creek, so that he could become the most favorable heir to the throne of Daliang, will he hide it seamlessly.
Xiao Jinxuan, who left with Zhou Xianyu, may be because Huang Fuche always mentioned the wedding intentionally or unintentionally throughout the banquet.
So although the two of them walked side by side in the direction of the West Palace, they both felt like a stone in their hearts, and they didn't know what to say.
And Xiao Jinxuan was also walking with her head down, and several times she wanted to speak and stopped, and she wanted to say something to Zhou Xianyu.
But thinking that she was about to become the crown princess, she really didn't get along, so she finally endured it.
In the end, Zhou Xianyu, who has always been not good at talking to women, after silently staring at Xiao Jinxuan for a long time, finally couldn't bear the inexplicable sense of closeness and familiarity in his heart, and spoke first:
"There is a lot of turmoil at the state banquet tonight, but the carefree girl is a bold person, even the Huangfu River you once dared to smash with green bricks, so you must not have been frightened. It's just that I see that you haven't eaten anything all night, and when you go back to the West Palace, remember to eat some supper, don't be hungry. β
Zhou Xianyu's opening, although it was all trivial, the somewhat awkward atmosphere between the two eased, and Xiao Jinxuan also nodded and said with a chuckle:
"Prince Lao is concerned, I am not frightened, but I feel that everything in this world is too impermanent. Not long ago, Na Qingxiang was still sad, and Huangfuxi even tried to bully me. But now one of the husband and wife is dead, and the other has become a murderer. As for the fact that I didn't eat at the banquet, it was really because of a throat injury, and I felt a dull pain when I swallowed something, and I will remember to drink the lotus seed soup when I go back later, thank you for your concern. β
After listening to Xiao Jinxuan's words, Zhou Xianyu chuckled at first, but after only a few steps forward, he couldn't help but stop, and then looked at the other party with a strange expression:
"Worry-free girl, you said that you have a wound on your neck, is this true? I don't know if I can ask how your wound came about. β
Zhou Xianyu had a bloody attack that day, although he couldn't remember who the woman who was happy with him was, but the matter of choking the other party's neck made him very impressed.
Therefore, in the past few days, in addition to the chaotic internal force of pranayama, Zhou Xianyu has also tried his best to look for people in the Liang Palace who are injured in the neck.
Hearing Zhou Xianyu's inquiry, a trace of embarrassment flashed on Xiao Jinxuan's face, and then she pouted and said:
"Actually, speaking of which, my injury was left by the lord of Qingsui, and when you held my wrist that day to prevent me from hurting Huangfu Creek with green bricks, I noticed that your skin temperature was extremely high. So I thought you might be suffering from a dark injury, so I brought all kinds of pills and prepared to visit you, and by the way, I also thanked the prince for saving his life. β
Xiao Jinxuan only cares about talking, and it is dark, she doesn't know martial arts, and she doesn't have the ability to see at night.
So Xiao Jinxuan, who didn't notice that Zhou Xianyu's expression was getting more and more shocked, had already walked to the carp pond on the side of the road, and continued to rest for the time being:
"But when I arrived at Yulin Palace, I didn't want the county lord of Qingsui to be afraid that I would disturb your rest, so I was stunned and didn't allow me to enter in front of the dormitory. Then she shoved me, and I was unconscious outside the dormitory. I can't even remember what happened after that, but it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who arrived to save me. And he told me that the wound on the neck was pinched out by the county lord of Qingsui, but her strength is really great, and it has made me uncomfortable for many days. β
Under the moonlit night, Xiao Jinxuan's pouting mouth complained, but her eyes did not hold a grudge, but she looked a little playful.
And even if what the other party said, there was a surprise with the situation in the dormitory that day.
But Zhou Xianyu will be in his heart, and he still feels that the person he is looking for is probably this worry-free.
took a few steps to the other party, and before Xiao Jinxuan could react, Zhou Xianyu had already grabbed her shoulders and pulled the other party into his arms.
Xiao Jinxuan, who only had time to exclaim, had no time to react to what had happened, and the button between Xue's neck had already been untied by Zhou Xianyu.
This change made it impossible to recognize Zhou Xianyu at all, it was Xiao Jinxuan, who was her former beloved, and she was suddenly shocked and ashamed, pushing the other party, and she was about to break free from her embrace.
And Zhou Xianyu is an expert in martial arts, although the finger marks on Xiao Jinxuan's neck have faded a lot, he can still see that this is not something that a woman in Qingsui can leave at all.
When he slowly put his hand on Xiao Jinxuan's neck, and the knuckles and bruises completely corresponded, his heart trembled, and he was so shocked that he couldn't say again:
"It's you, how could it be you. It seems that Huangfu Che knows everything, but he tells you that Qingsui did it, so as to hide it from you and the king. He actually knows what happened between me and you, and he even wants to marry you as the crown princess. β
After all, now under Emperor Rui's edict, Xiao Jinxuan is already the quasi-crown princess of Huangfu Che.
But Zhou Xianyu thought that he actually asked for Huangfu Che's woman, and the matter was known to the other party, which was a hidden danger for Xiao Jinxuan after all.
After all, if one day the joy of the other party and his palace is revealed, Xiao Jinxuan, as the crown princess, will inevitably be difficult to be tolerated by the Daliang royal family.
Therefore, Zhou Xianyu looked at Xiao Jinxuan, who was still struggling in his arms, his expression flashed with hesitation and struggle, but finally he still spoke:
"Since you are already my Zhou Xianyu's woman, I will definitely not ask you to stay in Liang Kingdom, go back to Da Zhou with me, and I will take care of you in the future."
Hearing Zhou Xianyu's words, Xiao Jinxuan, who had no impression of the joy of that day, her eyes widened instantly.
"What are you talking about, I can't understand a word, Prince. I am the fiancΓ©e of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, please let me go quickly, I really didn't expect you to be the same as the dead Huangfu Xi, bullying me a powerless woman, aren't you afraid of the world laughing at you. β
Seeing that Xiao Jinxuan really didn't have any impression of the events of that day, Zhou Xianyu couldn't help but smile helplessly, and then said with a surprised face:
"I really don't know what Huang Fuche said, so I hid the events of that day. But you woman really doesn't remember at all, and she really deserves to be punished. In this case, this king does not recommend doing you a favor, I Zhou Xianyu want to take a look, the feeling between **** and me, you really forgot it completely. β
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Xianyu grabbed Xiao Jinxuan's chin domineeringly, ignored the other party's wide eyes, and fell hot with a kiss.
In fact, Zhou Xianyu's reaction would be so intense, on the one hand, it was indeed because he was annoyed that Xiao Jinxuan had forgotten the events of that day.
And another reason is because deep in his heart, even if it is difficult to suppress the desire to be close to the woman in front of him, but at the same time, he has a deep guilt and shame for the late Xiao Jinxuan.
But as this kiss deepened, Zhou Xianyu immediately found that he was not only more and more difficult to extricate himself, but also felt Xiao Jinxuan's presence under all the touches of this worry-free woman.
This strange and inexplicable feeling surprised him in his heart, and at the same time, he hugged Xiao Jinxuan, who was at a loss, a little tighter, and even climbed his hand towards the other party.
