Chapter 138: The Storm is Coming

Xiao Jingcong gently grabbed Yan Zixi's hand, winked at her, signaled her not to be impulsive, and endured this breath for the time being.

There's no way, Xiao Jingcong is like this, what can Yan Zixi say?

After all, the two princes are still the closest and most trusted princes of the emperor after all, Yan Zixi knows that it is impossible for him to trip over this mountain, as long as he can get justice for Xiao Jingcong, it is enough.

"Xi'er, how did you know about my injury? And how did you get into the palace? ”

"Jingcong, are you embarrassed to say it?! It was the people in the palace who came to the house to upload the news, if Xiaomei told me, I don't know yet! Then I came in a carriage all the way, and was stopped by the general at the gate of the palace, but fortunately, the lady arrived in time and took out the gold medal to send me into the palace......"

Yan Zixi's eyes kept staring at Xiao Jingcong when she spoke, and she still looked a little frightened until now.

"You, you, you're really careless, you don't know how to protect yourself, I'm worried and scared for a long time......," Yan Zixi said as she spoke, and her face flushed with shame.

When Xiao Jingcong saw Yan Zixi's appearance, she couldn't help but hold Yan Zixi's jade hand tightly, and said with a soft and sweet smile: "Xi'er, if my husband can hear your heartfelt words, even if he is really dead, he has no regrets in his heart......

"Phew! Crow's beak! Jingcong, you can't talk nonsense...... It's not good if it works...... I don't want to see you die...... You...... If you die...... That...... Then I won't live alone......"

In the end, Yan Zixi's voice was like a mosquito humming, and the flush on her face became more and more serious, and she was almost so red that she could drip blood at this time.

Xiao Jingcong's heart was moved, if he has a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for?

The emperor walked in, saw Yan Zixi and Xiao Jingcong so loving, and thought that the marriage he gave was not in vain.

He coughed lightly twice, interrupting Yan Zixi and Xiao Jingcong to show affection there.

Yan Zixi hurriedly turned around and thanked the emperor: "Thank you to the emperor for saving the husband of the concubine!" ”

"What did Xie Zhen do? Zixi, your husband was rescued by yourself, and you have to take good care of him when you go back, remember? I don't want to see any more accidents happen to my Da Xiao's Wushuang General! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the concubines will take good care of Jing Cong, so that Jing Cong can come back as soon as possible to serve the court."

"Hey, it's still important to recuperate, Jing Cong, you can stay in the General's Mansion for this month to recuperate, and the affairs in the barracks will be handed over to General Li for the time being."

When Xiao Jingcong heard this, the look of surprise on his face flashed, and then he replied respectfully on the bed: "Yes, the emperor, the minister understands." ”

When Yan Zixi heard the emperor's words, she also muttered in her heart.

This emperor is really not simple, this move seems to be concerned about Xiao Jingcong's safety and doesn't want him to work, but she knows very well that the emperor has another purpose in doing this.

That's cutting power!

Now that Xiao Jingcong is in command of the three armies, the barracks are even more wary of him, and he has to be on guard against him. Now that the emperor is old, he was riddled with serious illnesses before, and his body is not as good as before, maybe he will die one day.

The second prince Xiao Yuxian had a holiday with Xiao Jingcong again, when the emperor was there, Xiao Jingcong was naturally loyal, but once the emperor died violently, Xiao Yuxian succeeded to the throne, Xiao Jingcong was against it, then the power of the Great Xiao Dynasty was in turmoil, it was precarious, and the emperor would never allow such a thing to happen, maybe all this was colluded between the emperor and the second prince Xiao Yuxian, and a scene was staged to cut Xiao Jingcong's military power step by step, so that he could be a free prince.

Therefore, Yan Zixi thinks that this purpose may be more important.

Although these are Yan Zixi's guesses, once connected, it really seems to be the same thing, and after going back, you have to discuss it with Xiao Jingcong.

After a few more words of condolences from the emperor and the queen, they left the Taiqian Palace.

Yan Zixi saw that it was not too early, and also arranged for a carriage to take Xiao Jingcong back to the Zhenguo General's Mansion.

On the way back, Yan Zixi kept holding Xiao Jingcong, for fear that the bumps on the road would make Xiao Jingcong feel uncomfortable.

"Jingcong, what do you think? Does the wound still hurt? Yan Zixi asked with a concerned face.

Xiao Jingcong opened her eyes, looked up at Yan Zixi's beautiful eyes full of tears, stretched out her hand and gently stroked her cheek, and responded with a smile in her mouth: "Don't worry, Xi'er, it's okay to be a husband, it should be okay soon......"

Hearing Xiao Jingcong say this, Yan Zixi breathed a sigh of relief, nodded obediently, and said leisurely: "Jingcong, really don't do stupid things in the future, if you have three long and two short, I will be very sad and sad......"

"Xi'er, I know, this won't happen again." Xiao Jingcong coughed a few times and assured Yan Zixi.

Yan Zixi looked out the window, and then whispered in front of Xiao Jingcong and asked the doubts that had been bothering him all along.

"Jingcong, can you tell me what happened when the sword was contested? With your skills, it is absolutely impossible for the second prince to hurt you, how can you ...... "Bashan Academy."

When Xiao Jingcong heard this, the smile on his face faded, and then he became serious, "The second emperor brother threatened him with his life......"

"What did you say?!" Yan Zixi's eyes widened, and she looked at Xiao Jingcong with an incredulous face, as if she had misheard.

"At that time, the second emperor brother rushed at me with a desire to die, if I didn't stop in time, I was afraid that I would kill him on the spot. He took the gap and stabbed his sword in......"

Xiao Jingcong's words were light, but Yan Zixi on the side had already heard righteous indignation.

"Despicable! It's despicable! Yan Zixi clenched her fist tightly and scolded through gritted teeth. That Xiao Yuxian is so despicable and shameless? If he really becomes the crown prince, I'm afraid it won't be the disaster of our Daxiao Dynasty! ”

"Shh Xiao Jingcong hurriedly made a silent gesture at Yan Zixi, "Xi'er, it's good that you know it in your heart." ”

"Sure enough, it's exactly what I guessed!"

Yan Zixi said her thoughts, and after Xiao Jingcong listened, her face also showed a slight hint of surprise, and she stared at Yan Zixi for a while.

"Jingcong, what's wrong with you? Why do you keep staring at me, am I saying something wrong? ”

"No, you're not wrong!" Xiao Jingcong smiled bitterly, and replied in his mouth: "Just as you said, now the emperor has temporarily cut off my military power in the name of recuperating from my injuries, but I am afraid that I already have the intention of establishing a prince......"

"Do you mean that the emperor is already planning to pass the throne to the second prince and make the second prince the crown prince?"

Xiao Jingcong nodded slightly, agreeing with Yan Zixi's opinion, "Xi'er, don't make a big deal about this. ”

"I understand, Jingcong, but...... But what do we do? If it is really the second prince who succeeds to the crown prince, he will definitely not let us go easily in the future......" Yan Zixi frowned, and couldn't help but worry about the entire Zhenguo General's Mansion.

The second prince Xiao Yuxian is ruthless and does everything he can, and after succeeding to the throne, he will definitely eradicate the Zhenguo General's Mansion as soon as possible, and then gather all the military power to prevent other princes from rebelling.

"For the time being, let's take it one step at a time...... What's more, the Northern Liang Kingdom is about to move, and it must not give other countries any opportunity to take advantage of! ”

Even at this time, Xiao Jingcong is still worried about the fate of Da Xiao's entire country, but he doesn't know that he has been targeted by others, and people are thinking of ways to deal with you!

Yan Zixi let out a long sigh and said no more. He can also understand Xiao Jingcong's thoughts, this is that there are too many similar examples in the history books, the cunning rabbit is dead and the lackey cooks, and the master will end up in a miserable end sooner or later.

And Yan Zixi secretly swore in her heart that she would never let such a day come!

Even if her strength is very weak, she has to protect Xiao Jingcong, just like Xiao Jingcong is desperate to protect her.

Xiao Jingcong fell asleep again, and Yan Zixi was doing some care for him in the carriage, wanting him to feel better.

After returning to the general's mansion, Xiao Jingcong was carried back to the bedroom by the subordinates, and after Yan Zixi served Xiao Jingcong to sleep and rest, when she was about to go to the back kitchen to decoct the medicine, Mrs. Xiao hurriedly walked over from the corridor.

stopped Yan Zixi and asked anxiously.

"Zixi, what happened? Cong'er, Cong'er, how could he get hurt? Where is he now? ”

Yan Zixi hurriedly hugged Mrs. Xiao, and her mouth was relieved: "Mother, don't worry, Jing Cong has already returned home, she just fell asleep, there is no big problem, you just need to cultivate quietly and recover." ”

"Cong'er, who was he injured by?" After Mrs. Xiao heard that Xiao Jingcong was fine, she finally calmed down, and then her face sank, and she asked.

"Back to my mother, I was injured by His Royal Highness the Second Prince when I was competing for a sword at noon today."

"What? The second prince was injured? ”

After hearing this, Mrs. Xiao looked suspicious, pondered for a moment, and suddenly pointed at Yan Zixi and scolded.

"It's you! It's all you! Since you married into our General's Mansion, my family Cong'er has either been poisoned or injured, and there is no day of peace! At first, the people in the market said that you were the reincarnation of a broom star, but now it seems that you are a broom star! ”

After saying that, Mrs. Xiao shook her fist and beat it.

Yan Zixi didn't dare to fight back, so she could only beg for mercy there: "Mother concubine spare her life!" Wronged, how can the concubine be a broom star, the mother concubine, please be clear! ”

Mrs. Xiao felt that because of her son's injury, it was difficult to ask the second prince clearly, so she could only put all her anger on Yan Zixi.

The maid Xiaomei heard movement in the corridor, and hurriedly ran out, just when she saw Mrs. Xiao scolding Yan Zixi, she rolled her eyes, and immediately ran to the room, and told Xiao Jingcong, who was still injured in bed, to hear about it......
