With Ye Thirteen's heavy bounty, he quickly collected some, the legend of Baojing Mountain.

Legend has it that many years ago, when the Central Plains was still in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there was a princess of Jiang who married a prince on the grassland at that time.

This treasure mirror mountain, the legend is that the princess of Jiang Guo carried a treasure in the dowry, and it forms a mountain when it falls here.

But the life of the princess of Jiang Guo and the prince of the grassland is not known by anyone, and there is no word of mouth. At most, it is left, the origin of this Baojing Mountain.

Ye Shisan couldn't help but be a little discouraged, but with a clue, it is better than no clue.

I don't know, when Princess Mingzhu knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had brought back Xiao Yao's cold quenching knife, would the princess be able to bear the bad news.

If only I could, I would find Xiao Yao as soon as possible.

The crown prince Yan Rongling returned to the dynasty with the glory of the class, and Yan Shaoxun went out of the city on behalf of Emperor Hong Zheng to greet him.

Such a happy event also reached Gu Fanghua's ears.

Gu Fanghua was also happy for Yan Rongling, Jiaojiao's mother and son came to visit her, and she was talking to Jiaojiao about the excitement at the city gate.

"If it weren't for me in confinement, I would also like to take a look at Brother Rong Ling's return to the court, and his majestic appearance. The crown princess is about to give birth, Brother Rong Ling is really happy. ”

Zhong Taojiao asked the nurse to take her son and accompany Xiao Ziyuan to play outside. Green chrysanthemum and the others also stayed outside, and there were only the two of them inside, so they could talk with confidence.

Turning around and taking Gu Fanghua's hand, he said: "Mingzhu, I think you and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it is better to have a little more distance in the future, you are such a mouthful of Brother Rong Ling, it is easy for the Crown Princess to misunderstand." ”

Gu Fanghua said with a smile: "The prince and I grew up together, and our feelings are naturally different from others. But it's not the love between men and women in the first place, so why deliberately leave it out? Isn't that the three hundred taels of silver in this place? ”

"Mingzhu, listen to me, it's okay for you to be like this when no one is in private, but when someone else is around, you still have to pay attention."

Zhong Taojiao spoke to her lips, and finally remembered Yan Changxin's instructions, and did not say that Yan Rongling was not. I just hope that Mingzhu will pay attention to it, so as not to be realistic.

Gu Fanghua knew that Jiaojiao had good intentions, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, Jiaojiao I know, and I will pay attention to it in the future." You don't keep talking, like a little old woman. I don't know how Yan Changxin usually gets used to you, and he is used to you like this. ”

Zhong Taojiao looked at Gu Fanghua and smiled, but her eyebrows and eyes were not stretched, obviously there was something in her heart, and she must still be worried about Xiao Yao.

In the end, she couldn't help it, and said in a low voice: "Mingzhu, you haven't thought that Xiao Yao was fine at the Yumen Pass, but he won the battle but disappeared. But the prince just went to Yumen Pass, and he won such a big victory. ”

Gu Fanghua said gloomily: "Brother Rong Ling has already found out, at that time, it was because Zhang Huai and Yang Chi, who were in command of the two wings, that they were greedy for merit. As a result, there was no one to rescue in the middle, and Xiao Yao would go missing. ”

Zhong Taojiao glared at Gu Fanghua with hatred, isn't she usually quite smart? Why do you have to believe in Yan Rongling so much.

"That Zhang Huai and Yang Chi, where did they get so bold? I heard the long letter say that someone must have leaked the layout diagram first. Therefore, the Liao people were able to put the main force in the middle lane, and there was no one on the two wings at all. ”

Gu Fanghua didn't have no doubts, but she couldn't think of any reason for the two generals, Zhang Huai and Yang Chi, to harm Xiao Yao.

"Jiaojiao, I know. Ye Shisan went to Yumen Pass, he would find Xiao Yao. As for Yang Chi and Zhang Huai, I won't let them go. ”

Zhong Taojiao hesitated for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Mingzhu, you have always liked Yan Shaoxun before. It seems that since the Flower Dynasty Festival that year, you have begun to get close to Yan Rongling. ”

Gu Fanghua didn't expect that Jiaojiao, who had always been arrogant, suddenly remembered these small details.

Indeed, what she did at the beginning, in her opinion, was a big change overnight.

But Jiaojiao didn't know that she was in a dream, but she had already experienced vicissitudes.

Now that you have woken up, how can you repeat the mistakes of the past? Fortunately, through their own efforts, those who can survive have all survived, and those who can change their fate have already changed their fate.

But she couldn't tell Jiaojiao about this, looking at Jiaojiao's happy face and more and more delicate face, Gu Fanghua's eyes were relieved.

explained: "Jiaojiao, I saw with my own eyes that Yan Shaoxun and a palace maid were living in the cold palace. With my pride, how can I still be with him? ”

These are all the news that Gu Fanghua found out later, but it was mixed in the lies, and it was enough to tell Zhong Taojiao half-truths.

Zhong Taojiao didn't expect it to be like this.

He was speechless: "You were so good to Yan Shaoxun at the beginning, and he still carried you behind your back, and he was with the palace maid, which is really inferior." ”

"So knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing hearts, you see that Brother Rong Ling has been loyal and honest since he was a child. Now that he is the crown prince, he is still as approachable and virtuous as a corporal. ”

Zhong Taojiao does not deny that Yan Rongling is good to Mingzhu. But it was because he was so good to Mingzhu that people worried that he had other ideas.

"Forget it, if you like it."

Zhong Taojiao no longer persuaded her, but instead talked about some interesting stories about the children, and the two whispered to each other, so they were not intimate.

But what Gu Fanghua didn't know was that Yan Rongling came to the imperial study with the cold quenching knife. And came to Cining Palace with Emperor Hong Zheng to discuss the matter together.

Yan Rongling explained the matter roughly, and then knelt down and said, "Queen Mother, this is how the cold quenching knife came about. It's all my fault, I couldn't bring Xiao Yao back to Sister Mingzhu. ”

Empress Dowager Zhong looked at Yan Rongling, seeing that he tried his best to restrain his expression, but she was sure that Xiao Yao was dead, and secretly smiled.

How to look, how upset.

"What does Xiao Yao's disappearance have to do with you? It's not easy for you to bring his knife back. It's just that at that time, I also asked Gu Dian to bring him a set of gold-silk soft hedgehog armor, I don't know if this armor has been found. ”

Yan Rongling replied with a smile: "Queen Mother, I didn't find the golden silk soft hedgehog armor. I don't know if it's not, but the people of the tribes who fled seized the armor. ”

"Really? The mourning family believes that with Ye Thirteen's cleverness, as long as Xiao Yao is still there, he will definitely be able to find it. ”

Emperor Hong Zheng also said: "I also believe that Xiao Yaoji people have their own natural appearance, and they will be fine." But when you find the Han Quenching Knife, don't mention it to Mingzhu for the time being. ”

Empress Dowager Zhong also agreed: "The mourning family also has this intention, Mingzhu is still in confinement, in case she hurts her heart, she is afraid of falling into the root of the disease." ”

Yan Rongling took the opportunity to say: "I think so too, then this Han Han quenching knife is placed here." See when the Queen Mother thinks it is appropriate, and then tell Sister Mingzhu. ”

After Yan Rongling and Emperor Hong Zheng left, Empress Dowager Zhong picked up the cold quenching knife, looked at it carefully, and her eyes were red.
