Chapter 286: Asking for help

When Xiao Xuan's words came out, Yue Ying, who was sitting on the ground, raised his head in shock and looked at Xiao Xuan, who was still sitting there, his eyes full of disbelief.

During the time she lived in Princess Zhaoyue's mansion, Yue Ying would be awakened by the same nightmare every night. In fact, she already had a bad premonition in her heart, and their family was already in turmoil and had nothing to rely on, so they got involved in such a thing.

It's good that you don't get recognized, but if you do, your life will definitely not be saved, but let alone your brother and sister who fall into the hands of the wicked.

Just now she was sitting in the room, Dan Tang hurriedly walked in from outside, and only said that Duke Zhaoyue would summon her and pull herself to the main courtyard of the princess's mansion.

During the days she lived in the Princess's Mansion, the Princess did not summon her again except on the first day she came to the Princess's Mansion. But today, Dan Tang hurriedly pulled herself out of the yard, and a chill ran in her heart.

"What are you sitting on the ground in?" Xiao Xuan looked at Yue Ying who was paralyzed on the ground, the corners of her lips were helplessly hooked, and she said to her. "Do you understand what I just said?"

"Min...... The maiden understood what the princess said. Yue Ying swallowed his saliva unconsciously, still unable to hide his astonishment and asked. Since the Imperial Concubine and His Royal Highness already know that I intend to approach His Royal Highness King Yi, why do they still rescue my younger brother and sister for me? ”

"When my sixth brother went to the disaster relief, we received the news that someone might attack him, and I was so anxious that I was so upset that I almost lost my temper. And during this time, Dan Tang served you by your side, saying that you would wake up from dreams every night, weeping and unable to sleep. Xiao Xuan got up and walked up to Yue Ying and stretched out his hand to her. I persuaded my brother to try to rescue your brother and sister, but I was just pushing myself and others. ”

Yue Xuan looked at Xiao Xuan's hand stretched out to him in a daze, and after hesitating for a long time, he still chose to hold Xiao Xuan's hand, and Xiao Xuan pulled her up from the ground with all his strength.

"Of course, it's not without any conditions that we rescue your brother and sister." Xiao Xuan and Yue Ying stood opposite each other, and Xiao Xuan said frankly with a smile. "You may only know a limited amount of what you know, but you need to at least tell me what you know. It's not just good for us, it's good for you too. ”

"Yes, I know the kindness of the princess." Yue Ying struggled to recall many of the details from before. "After my mother's early death, my father's imprisonment, and confiscation of the family property, we were left with only my younger siblings and a few old servants who accompanied my mother to marry. Relying on the meager wealth left by our mother, we left Jiangnan Mansion and went to a nearby county town to rent a small house to live. That night, several masked men barged in, snatched my brother and sister away, and forced me to leave the county seat to follow King Yi, who happened to be passing by. They didn't explain their origins to me, and threatened me with the lives of my brother and sister, asking me to follow His Royal Highness King Yi all the way, so that I could get close to His Highness on my own. But when the men were entangled with my old servants, a token fell from them, and I remembered the pattern of the token, which I could draw and give to the princess. ”

"Okay, although there are not many clues, it is difficult for you." Xiao Xuan knew that the people behind the scenes would not show any signs of hindrance, and it was a surprise that Yue Ying was able to draw the pattern of the token.

Yue Ying moved very fast, and after the dantang sent her back, it was only a cup of tea, so she drew the pattern and sent the dantang to Xiao Xuan.

Xiao Xuan looked at the pattern carefully, but it was really blind, and he couldn't see any clues.

"Green Forest, you go to the Jinjun King's Mansion now." Xiao Xuan held the pattern in his hand, thought about it again and again, and called the green forest. "Send me a post to Princess Jinjun and invite her to come over tomorrow to chat with me."

"Yes, slave and maid will go."

In the palace of the prince of Jinjun, the princess of Jinjun Hu took over the post from the hands of the green forest.

"The princess invited me to come over tomorrow for a chat?" Hu Shi opened the post, and it was indeed Xiao Xuan's handwriting in the post. "Miss Greenwood, didn't the princess say anything else?"

"Back to the princess, the princess didn't tell the slave maid anything else, only said that if the princess of the county is free tomorrow, please go to the princess's mansion to chat." Lu Lin replied respectfully.

"That's it, I'm just sitting in the house all day long." Hu closed the post and smiled. "Reply to the princess for me, and tomorrow I will go to the house to disturb for a day."

Duan Shaolan remembered Xiao Xuan's instructions before leaving, and returned home a little earlier today.

When he returned to the main courtyard, Xiao Xuan was already waiting for him in the courtyard with Brother Min in his arms.

"You're all back?" Duan Shaolan saw Xiao Xuan and asked with some surprise.

Brother Min in Xiao Xuan's arms waved his little arm at Duan Shaolan, babbling non-stop.

"Well, it's easy to say, just come back early." Xiao Xuan looked at Brother Min'er's movements and said to Duan Shaolan with a smile. "You go back to the house and change your clothes, and then come and play with Brother Min for a while."

"Okay." Duan Shaolan touched Brother Min'er's little head, and staggered into the house to change clothes.

Brother Min got his response and became even more excited. Now that Brother Min has grown stronger and stronger, he suddenly made a fuss, and Xiao Xuan almost didn't hug him.

"Princess, or the slave and maid should hold my brother." Seeing this, the nurse hurriedly stepped forward and said.

"It's okay, you go down." When Xiao Xuan said this, Duan Shaolan had already come out of the back room to change his clothes. "Come and hug your fat son, now he's getting heavier and heavier."

Duan Shaolan didn't speak, just walked over with a smile and hugged Brother Min.

When the family of three was in one place, the people who were waiting around them consciously retreated to the periphery, which was the rule set by Xiao Xuan. Waiting for the people to disperse, Xiao Xuan told Duan Shaolan about today's events.

"Actually, I know in my heart that most of the people behind the planning of this matter are the second brother. I also know that if this matter is to deal with Yue Ying, this will eliminate future troubles, and the handle of the sixth brother in the second brother's hand will naturally be useless. "Xiao Xuan has his own concerns in his heart." But I thought that the Yue family's sisters and brothers were innocent, if we disposed of Yue Ying, her younger brothers and sisters would probably lose their lives if they became useless burdens in the hands of the second brother, and I really couldn't see such a thing. ”

"There's nothing wrong with you doing this." Duan Shaolan let Brother Min sit on his shoulder, his hands held Brother Min'er's soft waist, and he turned his head sideways to look at Xiao Xuan gently. "It's just that things are handled according to what you said, and there will be some risks."

"I know what you said, so I invited my second sister-in-law to come over tomorrow to talk." Xiao Xuan pulled the corners of her mouth helplessly and said to Duan Shaolan. "In order to leave a little more bottom line for herself and her children in the future, my second sister-in-law once took the initiative to warn me. Speaking of the things in the second brother's mansion, the second sister-in-law, as the housemother of the county king's mansion, knows a lot more than us. Tomorrow, I will reveal some words and gambles, if the second sister-in-law is willing to help, it is best to let the eldest brother take action. ”

"Since you have made up your mind in your heart, let's do what you say first." Duan Shaolan bent his knees and pressed his head against Xiao Xuan's forehead, and Brother Min'er's little hands hugged his head tightly and giggled. "Brother Min and I are always on your side."

Xiao Xuan was coldly touched like this, first stunned for a while, and then couldn't help laughing after reacting.

"Well, then I have to thank you and Brother Min." Xiao Xuan looked at the two faces of their father and son, and said with a sweet smile.

When Hu came the next day, he also brought several of her children with him.

"You're here." Several children stepped forward to greet Xiao Xuan, and Xiao Xuan said lovingly. "It's hard for you to come to your aunt's house to play, I'll let you take you to see Brother Min'er, okay?"

After listening to Xiao Xuan's words, the children did not disagree, so Lu Lin took the initiative to lead a few children down to Brother Min'er to play.

"The second sister-in-law ran away in person." Yuezi, who was guarding Xiao Xuan's side, was about to step forward to show Hu Shi tea, Xiao Xuan raised his hand to stop Yuezi's movements, and personally raised the teapot to pour tea for Hu's family. "The tea I got this year is fragrant and sweet, my second sister-in-law can try it?"

"It's rare for you to hand me a post so formally, I must have to give you this face." Hu Shi took a sip, and sure enough, his mouth was full of tea. "Tea is good tea."

"Actually, I invited my second sister-in-law to come to my house today, and I really have a troublesome matter to ask my second sister-in-law to do me a favor." Xiao Xuan waved his hand, and Yue Zi brought a tray from the side and placed it in front of the Hu family.

"What is this?" Hu Shi looked over and saw that there was nothing else in the tray, only a piece of paper with a pattern on it that looked familiar to her. "Why is there such a pattern here, princess?"

As soon as Hu said this, Xiao Xuan's heart settled down.

"Does the second sister-in-law know this pattern?"

"This pattern is used by a group of people raised by the county king." Hu Shi did not hide it from Xiao Xuan, and said bluntly. "Princess, if you have something, you might as well say it directly. Rest assured, if I can help her, I will definitely help her, if I am not able to help her, this picture will be forgotten when I leave the princess's mansion and will never be mentioned to anyone. ”

"The second sister-in-law can say such things, I am very grateful in my heart." Xiao Xuan got up and solemnly thanked the Hu family.

"Princess, what are you doing?" Seeing this, Hu hurriedly got up and helped Xiao Xuan up.

"Miss Yue, you can come out." After Xiao Xuan and Hu sat down again, Xiao Xuan called Yue Ying out.

"Who is this?" Seeing a beautiful girl with a raw face turn out from behind the screen, Hu Shi asked inexplicably.

"This Miss Yue returned to the imperial capital with my sixth brother before, does the second sister-in-law remember my mother's sudden illness not long ago?"

"I remember that I was still in the palace at that time to visit the imperial concubine. It's just that my mother was seriously ill at the time and didn't see me. ”
