Yi Xuan really asked Zhao Yan to stop.
yes, what did he want.
Zhao Yan looked at her for a while, and smiled helplessly: "I can't understand you more and more." β
Yixuan was at a loss.
Zhao Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Didn't you treat Concubine Ning better before?" β
Isn't itγYou?
Yi Xuan was stunned in place, and her mind quickly recalled how she had told Zhao Yan at the beginning.
At that time, Concubine Ning was still a talented person, and was pushed out by the sisters of the harem to serve Zhao Yan, Zhao Yan refused to see Concubine Ning, and Concubine Ning stood outside the palace for a day.
She persuaded Zhao Yan to at least make a show and not chill Concubine Ning's heart.
Could it be that Concubine Ning has been favored since then because of her persuasion?
Yi Xuan thought it was unlikely.
Zhao Yan is a dignified son of heaven, who likes and dislikes whoever is on his mind, how can he listen to her?
Yi Xuan said with a blank "ah", "Your Majesty will pamper whoever you like, what does it have to do with me." β
Zhao Yan took a step forward and leaned closer to her. Yi Xuan could even see the two little selves in his eyes.
"What if you're the one I like?"
His voice was very low, his tone was gentle, and he had a certain demagogic quality.
Yixuan was caught off guard and froze in place.
What's going on?
Hasn't she already rejected him with righteous words?
And he's pretty angry.
I thought he wouldn't want to see her again in his life.
After Zhao Yan finished saying this, he straightened up and smiled as if nothing happened.
ββ¦β¦β
Yixuan stiffened her head and whispered helplessly: "Your Majesty, don't be joking. β
"I'm not kidding."
"Well, even if there isn't. What does Your Majesty think is the point of telling me this? β
"Yes."
Yi Xuanhu looked at him suspiciously, "What's the point?" β
"At least that, it reminds you of me once in a while."
*
Zhao Yan's statement is indeed good, after he said this, Yixuan was indeed restless for several days.
So much so that one night, she dreamed that Concubine Li was crying, crying very sadly and pitifully. She asked Li Concubine why she was crying, and Li Concubine came up and grabbed her neck and asked her:
"Why did you rob my man?"
Woke her up.
Yixuan hadn't had a nightmare in a long time. The last time she had a nightmare was last year, and she always dreamed of her tragic death.
The feeling in the dream was very real, as if there was really a pair of hands around her neck, making her breathless. Yixuan woke up on the verge of suffocation, covered in a cold sweat, and after a long time of apprehension, she reached out to touch her neck.
Then she touched Zhao Zhen's hand.
He didn't pinch her, he just slept with her in his arms normally.
But in the dream, it became the hand of Li Concubine to seek revenge.
Yi Xuan hissed and moved Zhao Zhen's arm angrily.
"What's wrong?"
The man's voice was very lazy, low and a little hoarse, not very sober.
He leaned over and kissed her cheek, then moved to her earlobe, his lips slipping over as if out of nowhere.
In the dark, the senses are sharp in all parts of the human body. The man's breath was ironing, coupled with his excessively provocative touch, Yixuan couldn't stand it a little.
She shuddered slightly.
Zhao Zhen noticed the sweat on her neck. It's almost winter, and although it's not very cold, it's impossible to sweat when you sleep normally.
Zhao Zhen opened his eyes in the dark, his hands propped his head, and he leaned over to look at her.
"Have a nightmare?"
The voice is low and gentle.
"Hmm." Yixuan turned around, shrunk into his arms, and complained to him: "I dreamed that someone was choking my neck. When I woke up, I found that it was you who put your hand on my neck. β
Zhao Zhen's hand was rubbing the skin around her neck, and when he heard the words, he paused, slowly moved to her back and patted it.
"Blame me." He chuckled softly, "I won't your neck in the future." β
Yixuan sighed and closed her eyes, "It's pretty much the same." β
The news of Princess Yu's complaint against the county lord of Dening spread far and wide, but Zhao Jinxiu had not moved there, and Yixuan felt very strange.
Zhao Jinxiu is really calm.
But Zhao Jinyi came to her quietly.
Zhao Jinyi came without telling his sister. He persuaded his sister more than once to meet Princess Yu and explain things clearly. Zhao Jinxiu didn't care about him at all, what should he do, he didn't seem to take this matter to heart at all.
Zhao Jinyi didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in his sister's gourd, his sister could bear it, but he couldn't bear it.
Obviously, Princess Yu and her sister were fine at the crab banquet a few days ago, how can you say that you will turn your face?
No wonder it is said that women's hearts are needles.
You can't even guess what people are thinking.
Zhao Jinyi didn't believe that his sister would do such a hurtful thing.
Princess Yu herself fell into the water, and he was also very sorry for her, but he would never allow Princess Yu to splash dirty water on his sister.
Zhao Jinyi sat in the front hall for a while, and Yixuan came.
There was also a king of Yu behind him.
Zhao Jinyi frowned, King Yu is here...... Propping up the field?
Yixuan is innocent.
Obviously, Zhao Zhen came with him.
Since the last time she came back from Duanwangfu, Zhao Zhen had been full of hostility towards Zhao Jinyi, and felt that Zhao Jinyi was frivolous and prodigal.
Prejudice is deeply rooted.
So this time Zhao Jinyi came to her, even if he came to make trouble, Zhao Zhen was not at ease.
After a brief greeting, Zhao Jinyi went straight to the point.
"Why does the princess slander my sister?" Zhao Jinyi glared at Yixuan very dissatisfied, forced by Zhao Zhen's majesty, his anger had been restrained a lot.
Yixuan sat opposite Zhao Jinyi, and Zhao Zhen sat next to Yixuan. Very lazy leaning on the back of the chair, blowing tea.
"I didn't slander her." Yixuan's attitude was very calm.
Zhao Jinyi stood up and was emotional, "I don't know where my sister offended the princess, the princess has to be so aggressive." The princess sued my sister to Dali Temple with a complaint, presumably the evidence has been sufficient, and if the prince puts pressure on him again, Dali Temple will inevitably sentence my sister to her guilt. β
Zhao Zhen frowned unhappily.
Why is this kid so underwhelmed when he speaks.
Zhao Zhen raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Jinyi expressionlessly. Zhao Jinyi's arrogance subsided, and he took a weak step back.
β¦β¦
"I have no grievances with your sister, and there is no reason to harm her."
"Instead of asking me, go back and ask your sister what I had to do with her, and she wanted to kill me."
Yixuan stood up, pursed her lips and looked resolute, "Don't come to me again to say these boring words, you can go." β
Yixuan originally thought that Zhao Jinyi was sent by his sister to negotiate with her.
It turned out to be not.
Zhao Jinyi just ran to sprinkle.
She was not interested in wasting time with Zhao Jinyi.
Zhao Zhen stared at the girl for a while in surprise.
Hook lips, raise eyebrows, and smile appreciatively.
Zhao Jinyi was suppressed by Yixuan's momentum, and he couldn't say a word.
A ridiculous idea popped into his head.
Sister may really ...... Something bad was done.
Is it possible?
Speaking of which, since his sister went to the south, he has had few opportunities to meet his sister.
He could feel that his sister was hiding a lot of secrets.
Zhao Jinyi was entangled in his heart, he didn't want to believe that his sister had harmed Princess Yu, and he was afraid that the truth was really as Princess Yu said.
He's a bit ambivalent.
After Yixuan gave the order to evict the guests, Zhao Jinyi left. After that, it was calm.
Yixuan is very concerned about the progress of the investigation of the Dali Temple. Because this case is covered by Wen Changbai, the progress is rapid. Jinghai's true identity and the original Dening County Lord to save Jinghai were also revealed.
Dali Temple has always been cautious in investigating the case, and the news is kept secret, but all the files will be handed over to the emperor.
After Zhao Yan learned of Jinghai's identity, he was shocked and immediately ordered Jinghai to enter the palace.
What Zhiluo told him at the beginning was that Yun Guogong's family was all subdued.
Of course he believed in Zhiluo, but ...... It is clearly written on the file that Su Nianwen, the youngest son of Yunguo Gong, escaped from the Fusi Prison in Beizhen and was captured by Zhang Qianyuan, the commander of Jinyiwei. The lord of Dening interceded for Su Nianwen, and Su Nianwen was arranged to enter Wanfang Temple, which was later renamed Jinghai.
Witnesses' oral confessions, evidence, all of which are insufficient.
Zhao Yan could almost guess that this was Zhiluo's sympathy for Yun Guogong and deliberately let Jinghai go.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for Jinghai to escape from Beizhen Fusi.
When the palace came to ask for someone, the prince and princess happened to be not at home. Everyone in the house listens to Ping Niang.
Ping Niang naturally couldn't parry the menacing forbidden army, so she handed over the person without saying a word. When the forbidden army left, someone went to inform the princess.
Yixuan went to eat. She eats a lot of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and she is very tired, so she wants to eat some snacks. When the little guy in the house found her, she was sucking the juice from the soup bag.
"The princess forgives her sins. Just now, a team of forbidden troops came to the palace and captured Jinghai. The little guy trembled and reported to Yixuan.
Yi Xuan was startled, and sucked all the soup into her mouth, making her tongue numb.
She gasped, hurriedly poured a cup of tea, and took a big sip.
Worried.
"You said that Jinghai was caught in the palace?"
"Yes."
"Why don't you stop it?"
Yixuan stood up, wiped her hands with a handkerchief, and went to settle the bill.
The little guy wanted to cry without tears, "How can the little ones stop it." A team of forbidden troops, fierce and vicious, come to ask for people, do the little ones dare not hand over? β
Yixuan sighed, too, they can't be blamed for this. The matter has come to this, she can only enter the palace as soon as possible and save Jinghai's life.
Yixuan went back to the palace first and asked people to prepare the carriage. asked people to inform Wen Changbai again.
The person Zhao Yan trusts most now is Wen Changbai, if Wen Changbai can intercede for Jinghai, Zhao Yan may be willing to let Jinghai go.
The gates of the Qianqing Palace were closed.
There was no sound inside.
The chamberlain had already gone in to report, but he didn't come out when he went in. Yi Xuan waited anxiously outside.
She thought that Zhao Yan must be very angry now.
The more Yi Xuan thought about it, the more anxious she became, she couldn't bear it anymore, so she simply ignored the obstruction of the chamberlain and directly pushed open the gate of the Qianqing Palace.
The scene inside is calm and a little eerie.
Zhao Yan sat on the dragon chair, supporting his head very lazily. Jinghai stood in front of Zhao Yan, saying something, and stopped when he heard the movement.
Zhao Yan lifted his eyelids, cast his eyes on her, and smiled, "Don't worry, Jinghai is alive and well." β
There was no hint of displeasure in his tone.
Yixuan: ???
Have these two people already released their suspicions?
