Yi Xuan stared at Zhao Jinxiu for a while, and felt that her words were still somewhat credible, after all, Duanwang was timid, how much blood could be left of Xianyun Yehe over the years? It is indeed unlikely that he will take the initiative to usurp the throne.
"I see." Yi Xuan nodded, "You know what? Zhao Jinyi went to be a Taoist priest, and King Duan sent people to look for him, but he didn't know where he was. โ
"What!" Zhao Jinxiu stood up excitedly and approached Yixuan, but was stopped by Shuang'er five steps away, Zhao Jinxiu glared at Yixuan with hatred: "Did you hurt Jinyi!" โ
Yi Xuan glanced at her indifferently, "Zhao Jinyi has no enmity with me, and I won't harm him." If you want to blame, you can only blame yourself. โ
Zhao Jinxiu frowned.
"You have done so many hurtful things, Zhao Jinyi is ashamed of you. As your younger brother, he doesn't want to have anything to do with this world, and he doesn't want to have anything to do with your femme fatale sister anymore, so he hides, and you can't find him. โ
Yi Xuan's tone was unwavering, but it turned into a sharp blade, cutting Zhao Jinxiu's heart with a knife. Zhao Jinxiu's eyes gradually drifted, and she sat down on the ground in despair.
Is it because of her?
Brother, you hate your sister so much?
"And your county horse. Of course, now that you are no longer the county lord, his identity as a county horse no longer exists. Yixuan smiled, "Zhang Han lost his father, and his beloved wife was used as an official slave, so he had a hard time these days." Every day is to drink, depressed, often run to the imperial mausoleum, look inside. โ
Hearing her husband's situation, Zhao Jinxiu's eyes were sour, tears flowed out of her eyes uncontrollably, and her hands hanging on her sides clenched into fists.
"Enough!" Zhao Jinxiu wiped away her tears and looked up at Yi Xuan angrily: "I'm already like this, why are you still telling me this!" โ
Yi Xuan raised her eyebrows, her expression surprised: "Oh? I thought you'd want to hear it. Immediately, his face became serious, and he said coldly: "You should be aware when you are plotting against my husband." Everything you and your family suffer today is all because of you, and it has nothing to do with anyone else. โ
Zhao Jinxiu bit her lip stubbornly, stared at Yixuan with scarlet eyes, and after a while, she suddenly laughed weirdly, with a vengeful pleasure on her face: "Wen Yixuan, no, I should call you Wen Zhiluo." Do you feel that everything is complete now, your husband, mother-in-law, children, and the family is reunited and harmonious? โ
Yi Xuan's pupils shrank suddenly.
How would she know!
Shuang'er was also shocked on the side, his eyes went back and forth between the master and Zhao Jinxiu, and he was extremely puzzled.
Yi Xuan pinched her fingers, trying her best to maintain her calm on the surface, and looked at Zhao Jinxiu silently.
Zhao Jinxiu laughed "heh", and mocked it to the fullest: "It's a pity, in the eyes of the concubine, you are a monster." It's all dead, but it's still alive in the niece's body, isn't it a monster? The concubine didn't tell you about it, did she? In fact, she knows it. It's just that I'm afraid that you, a monster, will harm her, so I've been hiding it. โ
Yi Xuan's eyes were slightly dazed. She couldn't help but remember that when she first met the concubine, the concubine resisted her like that because she regarded her as a monster, right?
She couldn't help but feel chills.
At that time, it was enough, now that Yuan Yuan has been born, the concubine is still keeping secrets, is she really afraid that she will harm her?
The concubine is afraid that she has reached this point?
Yixuan pursed her lips and raised her eyes, with a coldness in her eyes, "How do you know?" โ
"Well." Zhao Jinxiu patted her skirt and stood up, with a smug smile on the corner of her mouth, "Do you remember the night when you confessed to the prince when you were in the northwest?" โ
Yi Xuan understood, "You planted eyeliner in Ganzhou. โ
"Not bad. Hu Qingyun has always been in contact with me, I have placed someone next to her, and by the way, I will also pay attention to your movements. โ
Indeed, Hu Qingyun also instructed Princess Duan Qin to use medicine in the incense burner, intending to make her unable to conceive a child.
The Hu family has never broken contact with the Duanwang family. When she asked Princess Duan why she wanted to listen to Hu Qingyun's instigation, Princess Duan avoided talking about it, but made it clear that she had something unspeakable.
It can be seen that in the relationship between the Hu family and the Duanwang family, the Hu family was strong at the beginning, but Hu Qingyun was not as deep as Zhao Jinxiu's city, and slowly, this relationship began to be dominated by Zhao Jinxiu.
Hu Qingyun didn't even know that there was Zhao Jinxiu's eyeliner by his side.
Yixuan closed her eyes and thought for a while, and then asked, "So, on my way back to Beijing from the northwest, you sent someone to chase and kill me?" โ
"Yes." Zhao Jinxiu replied calmly.
Yixuan's eyes were sharp, "So the person you want to kill is actually Wen Zhiluo, not Wen Yixuan, right?" โ
"Not bad. Guess what, why do I want to kill you? โ
"At the same time that you found out that I was Wen Zhiluo, you also knew my affection for the prince, and you were afraid that it would be even more difficult for me to join forces with the prince. And your original plan was to use the concubine to hold the Yu Wangfu hostage, if I am here, I will definitely not let the prince be coerced by you. โ
Zhao Jinxiu clapped her hands, and tears of laughter came out, "Yes, I am worthy of being a former pacification envoy, and I can see through my intentions at a glance." โ
Yixuan saw that she was crazy and didn't want to talk to her anymore, so she stood up, and a question flashed through her mind for the last time.
"Poisoning and killing me at the banquet, are you or Hu Qingyun?"
*
On the way back, the atmosphere was always a little awkward.
The master and Zhao Jinxiu heard all the conversations, and it was impossible to pretend that they didn't know, but this was not a question that could be asked openly.
It's too mysterious.
Shuang'er has lived for twenty years, and has never encountered such a mysterious thing.
But many things she couldn't figure out suddenly became logical.
The relationship between the master and the prince of Changbai, as well as why His Majesty is so infatuated with the master, and the master is strategizing calmly...... The stupid one in the past was the real Wen Yixuan, Wen Yixuan was not sick, but she just changed the sub-core.
Shuang'er sighed, all kinds of unreasonable signs, how could she never doubt it.
Yixuan looked at the maid with a messy expression on the side, and finally couldn't help but speak: "Shuang'er, I don't tell you my identity, it's not that I don't trust you." It's just that...... The fewer people know, the safer it is for me. โ
"I understand."
โโฆโฆ What do you think? Think I'm a monster too? โ
Shuang'er was stunned by this question, and quickly shook his head: "No." How can a master be a monster? Compared with Zhao Jinxiu, she is more like a monster. I just felt a little surprised, and a little bit glad. โ
"Rejoice?" Yi Xuan was surprised.
Shuang'er nodded, "If it weren't for the master's rebirth in Miss Wen Yixuan's body, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to get together with the master in my life, so I'm glad." โ
The simple and sincere words warmed Yixuan's heart all at once.
"yes, it's all fate." Yixuan smiled faintly.
*
It was late afternoon when I got home. Yixuan went to see her son first after lunch. Yuan Yuan is taking a nap, his little face is white and tender, how cute and cute he is.
Yixuan bowed her head and kissed her son, told the nurse a few words, and went to Herui Hall.
The concubine was combing her hair just after taking a nap, and through the window, she saw her daughter-in-law coming this way, which was a little strange. It's not morning now, so I can't come to greet her, why don't you accompany Yuan Yuan here?
The maid reported that the concubine said to let her in.
Yixuan stood beside the concubine, made a blessing, and swept the maids in the house, and the maids understood, and the fish came out, and there was only one dilemma who was combing the concubine's hair.
"You can go out too." Yi Xuan's tone was flat.
"Yes."
The concubine couldn't help but turn her face to stare at her daughter-in-law, with a strange expression, "Do you have something to say to me?" โ
Yixuan nodded, consciously sat down on the embroidery stool next to him, and said, "I went out to see Zhao Jinxiu in the morning." โ
The concubine was angry now when she heard the woman's name: "What do you see her doing? You are kind, people don't accept your affection! The Imperial Mausoleum is a gloomy and depressed place, so don't go back to it in the future. โ
Yixuan's eyelashes drooped, avoiding the concubine's gaze: "She said, the concubine already knew my identity." โ
The concubine was stunned and looked at her daughter-in-law incredulously.
What she said was...... As Wen Zhiluo's identity?
The concubine was not sure and did not dare to answer.
"Really?" Yixuan didn't allow her to be silent, and raised her eyes to stare at her quietly.
The concubine swallowed, "Which identity do you say?" โ
"Concubine, don't be sloppy with me. The concubine clearly knows very well that I am not the real Wen Yixuan. โ
The concubine's face turned pale.
It's really this!
Her heart was beating a drum.
She really likes this daughter-in-law, but when she encounters this problem, she is really afraid.
The old man generally worships ghosts and gods, not to mention that she is still going around on the edge of life and death many times.
Isn't this kind of thing a natural opportunity that cannot be revealed? If you know, you have to pretend not to know, otherwise you will get into trouble.
The concubine didn't know what her daughter-in-law was going to do, so she was so frightened that her heart rose to her throat, and she could only admit: "I ...... It's to know a little. Zhao Jinxiu told me. โ
Yixuan suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness.
"The concubine is afraid of me?" Yi Xuan smiled bitterly, "Think I'm a monster? So you keep pretending not to know, for fear that I will harm you? โ
The concubine who asked these few words was quite weak-hearted.
Afraid? Of course I'm afraid. In the past, she did doubt whether Wen Zhiluo was a goblin, and she was afraid that Wen Zhiluo would harm herself.
But now, that's not what she thinks!
Can leprechauns have babies? Her good grandson is so white and chubby and cute, how could he be born of a goblin!
The concubine looked embarrassed, and said slowly: "No, Yixuan, I did think so before." But since you saved me, I really treat you as a daughter-in-law. I'm good to you, it's not fake, is it? โ
Yixuan was silent for a while and asked, "Then why do you keep hiding it?" โ
The concubine sighed, "The secret of heaven must not be revealed, it is better to pretend not to know about this kind of mysterious thing, otherwise it will lead to disaster, how can you have to pay for the loss?" โ
Yi Xuan's eyes moved slightly: "Just because of this?" Not afraid of me? โ
The concubine glared at her: "What else can you do!" You are my daughter-in-law, how can there be a reason for a mother-in-law to be afraid of her daughter-in-law! โ
