As soon as Zhao Zhen came back, he heard that the princess had gone to the imperial tomb today, and he was surprised and a little worried, so he hurriedly entered the house and saw his wife sitting on the bed in a good manner, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
"What are you doing at the Imperial Tomb?" Zhao Zhen sat down on the edge of the bed and reached out to touch Yixuan's face.
The man was obviously upset, but he was reluctant to blame her.
"I have something to ask Zhao Jinxiu." Yi Xuan clasped her legs with her hands, rested her head on her knees, and looked at him with clear eyes, "I asked for some very important news. โ
"What?"
Yi Xuan blinked, turned his head over, put his chin against his knees, and slowly organized his words: "Zhao Jinxiu has placed eyeliner next to Hu Qingyun in the palace of Ganzhou. The night I fled from Ganzhou, Zhao Jinxiu's people heard what I said to you and learned that I was Wen Zhiluo. Zhao Jinxiu was afraid that you and I would join forces, so he hurriedly sent someone to hunt me down. โ
"But Zhao Jinxiu was still in the south at that time, how could the news reach her ears immediately?" Zhao Zhen keenly felt that Zhao Jinxiu was hiding something in this matter.
Yixuan smiled, "She is in Jiangnan, but she must also have her power in the northwest, she will not just put a few people around Hu Qingyun." Even if I asked her, she wouldn't tell her about her power in the northwest, so I simply didn't ask. โ
"Yes." Zhao Zhen's fingers wrapped around a strand of Yixuan's black hair, and slowly played with it, with a thoughtful expression: "You want to remind me to purge Zhao Jinxiu's forces in Ganzhou?" โ
"Yes."
Zhao Zhen smiled tacitly: "I will leave this matter to Su Han." He paused, his eyebrows slightly worried: "My mother also knows about you?" โ
Since Zhao Jinxiu knows, he will definitely reveal it to his mother.
"Well, she got it. I went to ask the concubine in the afternoon, and she said that she was afraid of retribution for leaking the heavenly secrets, so she kept it a secret. I've already talked to the concubine, you don't have to worry. โ
Zhao Zhen smiled helplessly: "No wonder when I just picked up my mother back, she had that attitude towards you." โ
always said that Yixuan was an ominous person, asked him not to contact Yixuan, and clamored to invite a monk to come to the house to exorcise evil spirits, but he stopped him.
Yi Xuan opened up and chatted with the concubine in the afternoon, and the concubine felt very guilty for misunderstanding her before, and apologized to her, she was a little embarrassed.
Anyway, it's all in the past, and the important thing is to live well in the future.
"By the way, King Duan, please leave the capital, are you approved?" The little girl's expression suddenly became serious.
"Not yet. What's wrong? โ
Yixuan breathed a sigh of relief, "Not for the time being." The Zhang family has been rooted in Jiangnan all these years, and its strength should not be underestimated. Before you find out the details of the other party, you must not let the tiger return to the mountain. Zhao Jinxiu rebelled so that her father could ascend the throne. I don't know if King Duan really just wants to go to Jiangnan to see the scenery this time, or if he wants to contact Zhang Qianyuan's people to take revenge on you and me. โ
In a sense, the people who caused the destruction of the Wang family were indeed her and Zhao Zhen.
How could King Duan not hate?
Although Yi Xuan knew very well that relying on the strength of the Zhang family to compete with them was completely an egg hitting a stone, but the people had just gone through the war and needed to recuperate, and if the war could be avoided, it was better to avoid it as much as possible.
"Then leave King Duan in the capital for the time being?"
"Let's keep it for now, I'll go to Duanwang's Mansion tomorrow to pay a visit."
Zhao Zhen frowned when he heard this: "How can this be done?" If you want to see them, you can pass them over, so why bother to run for them yourself? If they do something to you......"
Yixuan waved her hand: "How dare they?" Besides, what's the use of killing me? If I kill me, I won't be able to save Zhao Jinxiu, but it will lead to annihilation. Even if they're obsessed, are all the guards you added to me just ornaments? โ
Zhao Zhen was a little speechless.
The first choice is that Shuang'er is a martial arts master, and secondly, the secret guards he equipped with Yixuan are also top masters. After all, Yi Xuan's current identity is different from the past, and the danger she bears is several times that of before.
Zhao Zhen sighed, the little girl will definitely do what she decides, and no one can stop her.
*
Early the next morning, the carriage departed from the gate of the Yuwang Mansion and stopped in front of the gate of the Duanwang Mansion.
Yixuan got out of the car and was vigilantly stopped by the guards at the door. Yixuan calmly asked him to go inside to report, and did not break in.
After a while, the person who reported it came back, and made a "please" gesture with some reluctance, "Princess, please come with me." โ
Yi Xuan couldn't help laughing, it can be seen that everyone up and down the palace here, including the guards, has a very bad impression of her.
The first person Yi Xuan wanted to meet was not King Duan and Princess Duan, but Zhang Han, a man who had lost his identity as a county horse. However, the guards still led her to the main hall, where King Duan sat and waited.
Yixuan stopped outside the door and asked the guard with a smile: "Where is Zhang Han?" โ
"Uncle was drunk last night and hasn't gotten up yet."
Yi Xuan didn't know if this was true or not, and thought to herself, forget it, since King Duan is waiting for me here, I'll see him first, and it's not too late to see Zhang Han later.
She walked in and found Duanwang with a black face, as if she didn't know how much he hated her. However, to Yixuan's surprise, Duanwang's hair turned all white.
Duanwang is not yet fifty years old, and there are still very few people with gray hair at this age. Besides, because King Duan has always lived a leisurely life, his hair has always been black and shiny, and he is very energetic when he looks at it.
However, the person sitting in front of Yixuan now seems to have aged twenty years all of a sudden.
There is a heavy dark blue under the eyes, the skin is crawling with wrinkles, and the eyes are relatively cloudy and lifeless. Yi Xuan couldn't help but remember the last time he saw King Duan, when he was still a very elegant and handsome middle-aged man.
It's only been a few months.
Yixuan smiled and called "uncle".
"I can't afford to be your uncle!" King Duan was a little excited, his eyes widened and he glared at Yi Xuan, coughed twice and said: "You demon girl, Zhao Zhen's six relatives who harmed him didn't recognize it, and my family was ruined, and you still have the face to call me uncle!" โ
In the face of King Duan's swearing, Yixuan was unusually calm. She directly picked a seat and sat down, propped her elbows on the table, and looked at Duanwang with her palm against her chin, her expression was even a little bored.
When King Duan saw her like this, he almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood.
"It seems that only Zhao Jinyi in your family is sober." Yi Xuan waited for him to stop cursing and spoke: "Your family has this ending, it is completely self-inflicted, what does it have to do with me?" โ
"You ......" King Duan pointed at Yi Xuan, his face was red and speechless.
"Just now you said that the prince and the six relatives don't recognize it." Yi Xuan sneered, "Are you an uncle good to him?" Your daughter caused me to lose my child, calculated everywhere, and sent someone to shoot the prince with a hidden arrow. โ
Yixuan's face turned pale, "Don't be such a relative!" โ
King Duan was shocked: "What did you say?" Jinxiu sent someone to shoot Zhao Zhen?! โ
Yi Xuan observed Duanwang's reaction and thought to himself that he really didn't know, otherwise he could hide it so well when he was so emotional, and his acting skills would be really good.
Yixuan smiled, "It's just one of the many bad things your daughter has done. Surprised? I'm too lazy to list them all with you. As long as you know that your daughter's punishment is exactly what she deserves, it is already great mercy for me and the prince to leave her a way to live. โ
Duan Wang was at a loss, but he couldn't bear to be angry, and he blew his nose and glared at Yixuan with an expression of "I don't want to talk to you".
"I heard that my uncle wants to go to Gangnam?"
When King Duan heard Yixuan call him uncle, he responded and slapped the table angrily: "Don't call me uncle!" I don't have your niece! โ
"Okay." Yixuan readily agreed: "I don't know why King Duan is willing to leave his daughter and go to Jiangnan?" โ
"Why should I tell you?" Duanwang is not angry.
Yixuan smiled: "Yes, of course I won't force you to tell me." But I'm the one who can decide whether to let you go or not, so you'd better be honest. โ
King Duan is angry!
This demon girl really kicked her nose in the face!
Does she remember that he was her elder! Remember!
But King Duan knew that he didn't allow Wen Yixuan to call him uncle, so he could only say angrily: "Jinxiu was locked up in the imperial tomb by you, and I will never see it in my life." Rather than staying in this breathless capital, it is better to stay away and have a good rest of life. โ
In fact, it was his wife who really prompted Duanwang to make a decision.
He didn't care, but watching his wife get more and more depressed day by day and her health deteriorated, he knew that he couldn't stay in the capital anymore.
Changing places doesn't necessarily make a difference, but it's better than sitting still.
Yi Xuan looked at him thoughtfully, wondering if he was telling the truth.
"Then why go to Gangnam?" Yixuan asked.
Duan Wang glanced at her and said impatiently: "My in-laws are in Jiangnan, is there anything wrong with me in the past?" โ
"Nope." Yi Xuan smiled, "Why didn't you see Princess Duan?" โ
"She's sick." King Duan glared at Yi Xuan, and his face was full of words, "It's all your demon girl's fault."
Yi Xuan got up, "Then take me to meet Princess Duan, she has a friendship with me, and I should go and see her." โ
"She needs to recuperate." King Duan was very vigilant: "Don't disturb her when you wait for the idle people." โ
Yixuan stood still, with a soft smile on her face, but she didn't say a word. Duanwang couldn't help but feel a creepy feeling.
The woman who can stand beside Zhao Zhen with ease is really unusual.
She is not arrogant, but she exudes a strong deterrent power all over her body.
King Duan was ashamed that he would be afraid of a little girl, and turned his head with a black face, without any intention of taking care of Yixuan.
Yixuan sighed regretfully.
King Duan thought she had given up.
Result โ
"Lord Wang, it will be difficult for me to do it if you don't cooperate like this. Now there are 300 elite soldiers from the Yuwang Mansion outside the mansion, what do you think will be the result if they rush in with my order? โ
King Duan's face suddenly turned like earth.
He stood up in his chair and glared at Yixuan hatefully, "Okay, I'll take you to meet her." But you have to promise me not to hurt her, or I'll fight for my life......"
Yi Xuan showed a reasonable smile: "Don't worry, King Duan, I won't let you fight with me." โ
