Ying Tang looked at the Wang Xiang at this moment, not to mention that he would secretly return to the post house under his cover, even if he left the Great Commander's Mansion like a normal person, it was estimated that he would not be able to do it. Ying Tang thought for a moment, got up and said: "Sir, I see that you are emotional, and you are also uneasy to calm down for a while, it is getting late today, you just stay here for a good night, think about it well, think about things clearly, think about it clearly, and I will let you go back tomorrow." Lest you go back at this moment, if you lose your posture on the road or in the post house and leak the news, I am afraid it will not be a good thing for you, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, and me. ”

As if he hadn't heard Ying Tang's words, Wang Xiang was still muttering to himself, and suddenly he raised his head and asked, "Your Highness...... When will she leave the palace?"

"Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is neither married, nor does she have her own princess mansion, so naturally she will always live in the palace. Sir, you want to see Your Highness, you want to ask things clearly, and I understand your feelings. However, since you are still serving Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess as your sovereign, should the subordinates do their best to complete the things that Her Highness ordered your subordinates? If the people in the Nanguo Mansion and the original Xiaonan Kingdom also knew the news, would they be as excited as you are today, and maybe they would do anything out of the ordinary, this is what Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess is most worried about! Now that His Majesty's will has not spread all over the world, and the officials in charge of the collection have not yet arrived in Caiyun City, you should hurry up and pack up and go back to Nanguo Mansion to settle everyone well, this is the best explanation to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess!"

Not long after Ying Tang left the study, the housekeeper brought some food and tea, and seeing that Wang Xiang was still sitting there motionless, the housekeeper put down his things and withdrew. It wasn't until he heard the sound of the door being clattered and locked that Wang Xiang slowly got up, walked to the brightest candlestick in the room, blew it out, and then returned to the table and sat down slowly. The night was getting deeper, and in the dim candlelight, Wang Xiang finally calmed down, closed his eyes, and there seemed to be some subtle sounds coming from his heart, from his throat, from his mouth, and some warm things dripping on the back of his hands and his legs. Wang Xiang didn't want to think about what happened to Yao Jin in the palace, of course he understood that it was impossible for His Royal Highness the Lord of the Kingdom not to want Xiao Nanguo for no reason, but when Ying Tang said the sentence "She has returned the nine cities, one river and thirteen counties to the Li Dynasty, and now Xiao Nanguo no longer exists", a feeling of abandonment and betrayal suddenly came to his heart, panic, fear, pain and even hatred, all of which rushed to his brain, he couldn't accept this matter, he instinctively refused, He didn't want to think about the causes and consequences that must exist behind this matter, because he absolutely couldn't accept that Yao Jin didn't want Xiao Nanguo and didn't want them.

Wang Xiang's hand unconsciously touched his heart, where there was a hideous scar, a wound that was not too different from his heart. It was a sword wound, someone tried to shoot him when he was in the Hu tribe, a long arrow almost pierced his young and thin chest, but in the end he survived, he had a breath in his heart, and this breath supported him to survive. He didn't say anything about this to anyone, and even when he asked Lu Tao, he just understated it and perfunctory it. But he remembered that the moment the arrow was pulled out, he had a deep understanding of what death was, and death passed by him, and then turned and grabbed his arm to take him away, and at the moment when his consciousness was about to fade, the girl appeared before his eyes. It was the girl standing at the bow of the boat wearing a purple cloak, her eyes were so bright, like the dazzling stars in the sky, shining brightly somewhere in his heart, that was the first time he saw her, but this time, Wang Xiang believed for no reason that this girl was his infinite possibility, a dream hidden in his heart forever in the long life to come.

Nine cities, one river and thirteen counties returned to the direct jurisdiction of the Li Dynasty, and the Xiaonan Kingdom ceased to exist. The news spread much faster than Yao Jin thought, and Wang Xiang couldn't rush back to Caiyun City before the people arranged by Li Yao after all, even if he rushed back to Nanguo Mansion day and night, most of the people in the mansion had already dispersed at that time, and the remaining few people who were still loyal like the housekeeper Zhao Xing also packed up their things, just waiting for the person in charge to come back and explain, and then planned to go home. Wang Xiang learned from Zhao Xing's mouth that since Zhao Yu met Jiao Ran, the head of the household who came to deliver the decree in Huizhou, although the will brought by Jiao Ran was only to ask him to hand over the defenders of Huizhou, and to count and return some of the account seals in the Nanguo Mansion that he kept, and there was no other disposal for him, he was still doing his Huizhou county guard well, but even so, Zhao Yu, who had always been good-natured and good-natured, only calmly did all this, and then locked himself in the study in the mansion, not listening to anyone's persuasion, and not seeing anyone. Hearing such news, although Wang Xiang, who was in the Nanguo Mansion, was very sad, he couldn't say anything, he was busy replying to the urgent letters sent by the county guards of several other counties, and he was also going to preside over the dismissal of the people and things in the Nanguo Mansion, as well as Jiao Ran, who came to receive the seals of the items, and the deputy commander of the forbidden army who incorporated the troops of the Xiaonan Kingdom, there were many and complicated things, although Wang Xiang was worried about Zhao Yu, he couldn't find anyone who could be trusted, until Zhao Sheng, who finally returned to Caiyun City on the order of Li Yao, came to him, and Wang Xiang hurriedly found him:" Lord Zhao Sheng, now that there is no Xiaonanguo, you and I can't say anything about this situation, it's just Lord Zhao Yu...... His heart is not under you and me, and now he is difficult to solve the knot in his heart and can't go out, if this news reaches Beijing, I am afraid that His Majesty will think more about it today, and it will be a great disadvantage to the Zhao family at that time! Her Royal Highness the eldest princess has always been worried about the safety of us, and the message asked me to persuade everyone to accept the reality with peace of mind, and not to do anything abnormal so as not to endanger themselves, and now the matter of this Nanguo Mansion has not been resolved, I can't get out of it for a while, and I hope you go to Huizhou to persuade Zhao Da to do so!"

"Her Royal Highness the eldest princess? Yes, there is no Her Royal Highness the lord of the country now, only Her Royal Highness the eldest princess! In the past few years of acquaintance, I didn't know that this Her Royal Highness the eldest princess was such a ruthless person who turned his face and didn't recognize people! Just for the sake of her good friend Lin Jiayuebai, just to please His Majesty and congratulate the Lin family as the queen, she actually said that we would give it up! If we say no, we don't want it! What is she, you, me, and these nine cities and thirteen counties? Is it a plaything? Is it gold and silver wealth that can be sent around? I have returned from Beijing to the present, and every day I have to force a smile at everyone, and I want to happily say that I can finally return to my homeland, and congratulate them in person, I know, I know very well in my heart! Everyone is laughing at us behind our backs! Laughing at our people in the entire nine cities, one river and thirteen counties, we have all become jokes, and they have all become jokes about her eldest princess who rose up to establish a feudal kingdom and threw us away casually for a while!"
