The large room was warmed by a warm stove, a faint scent of sandalwood wafted through the room, and the twilight sun shone in through the hollowed-out carved windows, casting specks of sunlight on the ground covered with brocade blankets.

After a day of sleepy sleep, Wei Xi's eyes were slowly opened, and he was greeted by a pale yellow curtain, purple tassels hanging on both sides, and his body was covered with a soft quilt embroidered with intricate and gorgeous patterns, and the cushions under his body were also very exquisite.

"Where is this?" Wei Xiwan weakly propped himself up with his hands, his mind was not very clear all of a sudden, but his hazy eyes looked at this large and comfortable room.

She was arrested defenselessly in that small teahouse, looking at the decoration and layout of this room, what the old uncle said, and the cup of tea called Nian Xiangyu, they all clearly told her that now she is here, there is no suspense in the Beiyu Imperial Palace.

It's true that she wanted to enter the palace, but she didn't want to be arrested...... The medicinal properties of Nian Xiangyu were too violent, and Wei Xi, who had just woken up for a while, fell down and fell asleep again.

Gaifu.

The twilight has deepened, the chill is getting thicker and thicker, and the Cuilong Bazhen soup has been boiling on the table for almost a whole day, and the milky white soup has changed from a hot temperature to a warm one, and Wei Xi has not come back yet.

Until nightfall, the anxious Mo'er finally couldn't hold it anymore and hurried to Gai Qing's tent.

"Eldest son, Miss Wei is afraid that something has happened. ”

"What's wrong?" Gai Qing stopped the abacus finger in his hand and looked at Mo'er, who pushed the door in, panting slightly but with a flustered face.

"Miss Wei must come back before sunset every day when she goes out, but she has not come back until now. Mo'er's eyes were slightly red, Miss Wei treated her very well on weekdays, if something really happened, she would be sad to death.

"Don't worry, in this capital, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, there will be no major incidents, maybe she will come back later today. Gai Qing comforted him, stood up, walked to Mo'er and took her into his arms, seeing her so worried, he was a little distressed.

"Nope. Mo'er shook her head and got out of Gai Qing's arms, and said seriously and surely, "No, Miss Wei also specially instructed me to boil the Cuilong Bazhen Soup, and after saying that, I came back to drink it before sunset, and now that the soup is cold, Miss Wei likes to drink it so much, she will definitely not come back late for no reason." ”

"That's ......" Gai Qing always believed what Mo'er said, his eyebrows condensed slightly, "Then I'll send someone to find it, don't worry about it first." ”

"Hmm. Mo'er sniffed and nodded heavily, she knew that as long as the eldest prince said to look for it, she should be able to find it.

The muddy and soft earth, splashing under the iron hooves, galloped horses through the mountains, dense forests, wilderness roads, wearing stars and moons, day and night, until they saw the familiar banner of the coiled snake, and finally slowed down.

The man on the horse was long, dressed in a dark purple robe, and he rolled over neatly to the ground, and although the hand holding the reins looked thin, it was sharp and powerful.

The left half of his face was covered by a mask with a cold sheen, his thin lips pursed, and his body was full of coldness, looking at the group of people kneeling in front of him without saying a word.

"See the Third Highness. "The leader is the leader of the snake, Moji, who was ordered to come to the border here to receive the three princes back to China.

"What about her?" the man spat out only two words impatiently.

"Back to Your Highness, you are already in the palace. Inkmark replied respectfully, but no sooner had he finished speaking, the man standing in front of him turned on his horse and galloped away again, paying no attention to the people who were kneeling on the ground.

"Keep up. Inkmark commanded, and the crowd dared to rise from the muddy ground and ride after the dark purple stain.

In the Northern Yu country, black and gold are respected, and purple and red are precious. The colors of black and gold are only qualified to be worn by emperors and princes, while the colors of dark purple and red can only be used by princes, and this touch of dark purple is a symbol of power and status.

"Your Highness has arrived. In the main hall of the palace, with the screaming voice of the eunuch, Ji Ling, the third prince of the dusty manner, walked in, and the mask on his face had been taken off and held in his hand, revealing a delicate and handsome face.

"See your father's father. A deep and pleasant voice sounded in the hall.

Ji Xuanyan slowly raised his head at this time, looked at his son standing in front of him and smiled happily and said, "Jing Zhe, you are back." ”

"Yes. Ji Jingzhe raised his head, a pair of bottomless inky eyes covering all his emotions.

When the three princes were born, they were named "Ling" according to the order of the royal genealogy, but according to the calculations of the Heavenly Master, the eight characters of the three princes' birthdays did not match the word "Ling", so they took the nickname "Jingzhe".

It's just that this name is only qualified by the emperor, empress and crown prince, and others can only respectfully call the three highnesses, but the name of the three princes who are announced to the world outside is Ji Ling.

"The Guardian is settled in the palace and is unscathed, you don't have to worry. Ji Xuanyan looked at his son thoughtfully, he knew him, Wei Xiwan was probably not just the identity of the enemy national teacher for him.

When Ji Jingzhe brought back the news that Wei Xiwan had left for Beiyu Kingdom, he also brought a condition by the way, that is, before he returned to the palace, he could not dispose of Wei Xiwan without authorization.

The three princes of Beiyu seem to be low-key and incompetent, but in fact they act decisively and ruthlessly, and their ability and wisdom are quite appreciated by Ji Xuanyan, and the forces in the dark can almost gradually compete with the crown prince.

What he said, even Ji Xuanyan would listen to it a little, so Wei Xiwan has been sending the snake elite to guard it, and he has been placed under house arrest in the palace, and has not done anything to deal with it, but this is not because the emperor is afraid of Ji Jingzhe, but he has a better plan.

"What is my father going to do with it?" Ji Jingzhe looked at his father sitting on the throne for a moment, his expression was calm, but the hand holding the mask revealed a trace of nervousness, no matter what, he would save Wei Xiwan's life.

"A national teacher of Nancheng Kingdom, if it falls into our hands, we naturally have to make good use of it, besides, this woman is not simple, she is very smart and has a lot of means, if she kills it, it is indeed a pity......" Ji Xuanyan said slowly, but his eyes did not let go of any slight expression change on his son's face.

He sent his third son to Nancheng Kingdom, infiltrated the palace and destroyed Wei Xiwan, an important chess piece of Nancheng Kingdom, but he didn't expect Ji Jingzhe, who has always been decisive in killing, to be unable to make a move, but after all, he was his son Ji Xuanyan, and he lived up to his expectations to deliver the news in time, so that he captured Wei Xiwan alive in Beiyu Kingdom.

"What does the father mean......" Ji Xuanyan's tone obviously had no intention of killing Wei Xiwan, but it made Ji Jingzhe's eyes cross a touch of vigilance, he knew that his father's methods had always been to do everything, and sometimes even if he didn't kill a person, he could also make life worse than death.

"I mean...... Married Wei Xi late. ”
