Chapter 55 is helpless
Lu Zhixing thought of a way, but he didn't know if Xia Yahan was willing, and even if Xia Yahan was willing, the level of the Great General's Mansion behind her would not be so easy.
"I hope you can convince your father to do me a favor."
Lu Zhixing told Xia Yahan that he would put up a notice saying that Xia Yahan had helped Jiang Wan escape from the palace and was about to be executed. Jiang Wan values that Xia Yahan will definitely show up to protect her, but this needs her family to know in advance, otherwise it will easily cause chaos.
"The slave knows."
As soon as Xia Yahan heard that Jiang Wan still had the possibility of coming back, she immediately agreed. No matter what, Jiang Wan is her sister, and she is also worried about Jiang Wan's situation.
"I have already arranged for a carriage to take you back to the General's Mansion, and this matter is always tiring and troublesome."
Lu Zhixing was relieved to see that Xia Yahan agreed so happily. After Xia Yahan sent Lu Zhixing away, Mo'er stepped forward and said softly, "Master, this is also for Xin Chang's good, so you can be wronged." ”
"I know, let's go, I may not have been back to the General's Mansion for a long time."
Xia Yahan has been in the palace since she entered the palace, because she has not been able to pay attention to Lu Zhixing, her grade is low, and she cannot bring glory to the family, so she has less contact with her family.
Unexpectedly, now Lu Zhixing gave him the opportunity to go back, but it was for another woman. Lu Zhixing's affection for Jiang Wan can already be seen by anyone with eyes, but Lu Zhixing's refusal to admit it also makes her still have a small hope in her heart.
An inconspicuous carriage slowly drove out of the side door on the side of the palace, and it was Xia Yahan with a calm face sitting on the carriage, and Mo'er with some worries.
Mo'er thought to herself that her master had paid a lot for Lu Zhixing and Jiang Wan.
Xia Yahan was thinking about how to tell her family about it, and she was afraid that her general's father would not agree.
"Ju Chang is here, the General's Mansion has arrived."
Mo'er got out of the car first and then supported Xia Yahan, who stood still in front of the General's Mansion.
She looked up at the plaque on the vermilion lacquer gate in front of her, and the words "General's Mansion" on the plaque were already a little mottled. She has really been gone for many years, and she is quite sighing when she comes back here again.
"Master?"
Mo'er looked at Xia Yahan stunned in place and called softly.
"Let's go inside."
Xia Yahan stepped forward and clicked the copper ring on the door, and a small door opened on one side of the door. A man who looked like a family man walked out, he was a little surprised when he saw Xia Yahan for a while, and then asked tentatively, "Miss?" ”
"It's me, I'm back."
The family quickly opened the door, and then stopped the people passing by, "Go and inform the lord and the lady, the young lady is back." ”
"Miss, please come with the minions."
Xia Yahan and Mo'er followed behind Jiading, looking at the home where she had been away for several years. Some of the furnishings in the yard were not in her memory, but the objects with the atmosphere of age looked more old than before.
"Master, we haven't been back for a long time."
Mo'er followed Xia Yahan into the palace together, she entered the General's Mansion as a maid since she was a child, and has been waiting for Xia Yahan. The days of the General's Mansion, she also misses it a lot.
"Yahan, are you really back?"
When Xia Yahan heard this, he was greeted by Xia Yahan's parents, the general and his wife. Mrs. Xia saw her long-lost daughter with tears in her eyes. She walked quickly to Xia Yahan's side, took her hand, and her words trembled a little.
"My daughter has suffered in the palace."
Xia Yahan looked at her mother, and tears welled up in her eyes. Because she is just a constant presence, she has no chance to go out of the palace to save her relatives, and when her mother enters the palace, she also makes excuses for not seeing her because of guilt.
But after all, it was the mother who gave birth to her and raised her, so how could she not miss it?
"Mother, my daughter is back."
The general who had been standing behind Mrs. Xia was also excited at this time, he loved this daughter the most, so he naturally understood his daughter's stubbornness.
"What are you doing standing up, come in and talk."
After Xia Yahan and her parents exchanged pleasantries, she explained the purpose of her return this time. After hearing this, the general and Mrs. Xia looked entangled and complained.
Lu Zhixing can make this request to Xia Yahan, there must be no other way. And listening to some of Xia Yahan's past with Jiang Wan, they felt that out of affection, Xia Yahan's decision was also reasonable.
"I'm really worried about her situation at this time, as long as I can know that she is still alive, if she is coerced, Your Majesty will definitely forgive her."
"But Yahan, you will be charged with helping her escape from the palace."
Mrs. Xia still couldn't bear to let her daughter suffer such honorary grievances, and when she thought that the news of her daughter's execution would be advertised in the capital, she didn't feel good in her heart.
"It's just a play, and Your Majesty won't really punish me for this, Mother, I can still accept this grievance."
After Xia Yahan discussed with the general and Mrs. Xia, he got into the carriage back to the palace.
"It's strange why this mansion doesn't have a plaque." Xian'er looked out the window, Xia Yahan also looked over when she heard her words, and then withdrew her gaze.
"Maybe it's uninhabited."
And Xia Yahan didn't think that Jiang Wan, the protagonist of the city's stormy city, was in this strange mansion.
The sunset was in the west, and the evening glow shone on Ye Gongzi's mansion and shone into Jiang Wan's room with the window open. Jiang Wan is packing up her things at Ye Gongzi's mansion, and the streets and alleys of the capital are now plastered with her wanted notices, but she escaped a catastrophe in Ye Gongzi's mansion.
"Ye Gongzi, why are you here?"
"I'll come over to see how you're packing, and I've got some coils for you on the road."
Ye Gongzi untied the money bag from his waist and put it on the table next to Jiang Wan. As soon as Jiang Wan heard the voice, she knew that there was a lot of money in it, but how could she accept it.
"Ye Gongzi, I still have some silver taels on me, I can't accept this money."
"It's dangerous for a girl to go by yourself, and when you go ashore, it's better to find a dart board to escort you."
After that, he took out a jade pendant from his arms and put it in Jiang Wan's hand, "With this, they will definitely protect you." ”
Jiang Wan looked at the shiny jade pendant, knowing that this was a symbol of Ye Gongzi's identity, she didn't understand why Ye Gongzi would be so good to herself.
"I'm afraid you won't return to the capital after you leave this trip, and it will be difficult for us to have a chance to meet again in the future, so you can keep it and keep it as a memory."
When Ye Gongzi said this, there was a lonely look on his face, and Jiang Wan didn't see it because of the dim light in the room. Jiang Wan listened to Ye Gongzi's words, and held the jade pendant in his hand for a long time.
"Then I'll take it."
Ye Gongzi left Jiang Wan's Jade Bamboo Garden and returned to the study, where Yun Xing was waiting for him.
His face regained that indifferent look, "What's the matter?" ”
"Master, the one in the palace has been a little abnormal lately, and he is searching for a person."
"Who?"
"A harem woman, Xin Chang is in Jiang Wan, and she recently ordered to execute Ju Chang in Xia Yahan."
"It's not like he can do it."
At this moment, Jiang Wan suddenly broke in, "What are you talking about, who is Lu Zhixing going to execute?!" ”
Ye Gongzi and Yun Xing were surprised, they didn't expect Jiang Wan to suddenly break in. Jiang Wan was just passing by, but he didn't expect to hear Yun Xing's words.
"Why are you so excited, girl?"
Jiang Wan only thought about Xia Yahan, and Xia Yahan was going to be executed by Lu Zhixing, which was tantamount to a thunderbolt for her. Yun Xing told Jiang Wan what he had seen on the notice board.
"Your Majesty wants to execute Xia Yahan, the daughter of the general, for helping Xin Chang escape from the palace in Jiang Wan, and he will be beheaded the day after tomorrow."
Jiang Wan was stupid in place, Lu Zhixing would be so irrational, her escape from the palace had nothing to do with Xia Yahan. Jiang Wan's reaction made Ye Gongzi puzzled.
Jiang Wan slowed down and covered up, "When I was in the palace, I was taken care of many times, so I was too surprised to hear this news. ”
Jiang Wan hurriedly explained and walked back to his room. After Jiang Wan calmed down, he began to think that this should not be something that Lu Zhixing would do.
Moreover, Xia Yahan is the daughter of a general, if Lu Zhixing is to be executed for no reason, the general's mansion will definitely not be so peaceful.
"Could this be Lu Zhixing's ploy to force himself to take the initiative to show up?"
Jiang Wan was in a dilemma, if she returned to the palace this time, Lu Zhixing would definitely take closer care of herself, and she would never have a chance to leave again. But what if Lu Zhixing really lost his mind and wanted to execute Xia Yahan, Xia Yahan was innocent.
Just when Jiang Wan was struggling with this matter, Ye Gongzi had already begun to doubt her identity.
"Master, Miss Ling's move is very suspicious."
"I know, but if she is really related to the harem concubines, I have no right to interfere."
In fact, Ye Gongzi is selfish, since Jiang Wan wants to be a free bird, he personally sent her to the vast sky. Yun Xing looked at Ye Gongzi's attitude and didn't say anything anymore.
In the second half of the night, Jiang Wan quietly walked out of the room. She didn't carry her baggage either, and tiptoed away from Yuzhu Garden. She decided that she was going back to the palace, and she couldn't take this risk for the sake of Xia Yahan.
Jiang Wan looked in the direction of Ye Gongzi's room, with gratitude and apology in his eyes. She was afraid that Ye Gongzi would stop her, so she could only choose not to say goodbye.
She changed back into the clothes she wore on the day she left the palace, and only took away the hairpin that Ye Gongzi bought for her, and the jade pendant was also placed by her at the head of the bed.
"Ye Gongzi, thank you very much for taking care of me these days, I'm sorry."
Because it was getting late, almost all the people in the mansion went to rest. Jiang Wan cated all the way to the gate, opened a crack in the door and got out.
And she didn't know that Ye Gongzi had been silently following her all along.
After Jiang Wan's figure disappeared completely, Lu Zhixing's eyes looked at the bright moon in the sky with resentment and reluctance.
"Miss Ling, I still can't keep you after all."
"Master, why are you doing this?"
Ye Gongzi waved his hand, turned around and walked back to his yard without saying a word.
After Jiang Wan left Ye Gongzi's mansion, according to the memory in his mind, he went straight to the palace.
