Escape from the desert with aura: I am the only native in the whole family

Chapter 624 Concubine Chang, In fact, I have known you for a long time

"That's natural." Ah Jiu walked along the corridor and returned to the backyard cheerfully.

Seeing the clusters of white peonies blooming beautifully, and a lot of young grasses growing in the yard, it really is a year of auspicious snow, and this year is definitely more moist than the past few years.

Xue Zhen looked at the enduring peony with his hands behind his back and squinted his eyes:
"Master, do you still remember how Yulongmen became extinct?"

Only then did Ah Jiu smell a breath of opposition: "How did it become extinct?"

"Because the Shenlong Clan is extinct, Yulongmen naturally has no use for it. Even if Zihui becomes the head of the door by chance, he will not be able to honor the door. If you help him like this, you may be wasting all your good intentions."

This is Xue Zhen's opinion, but to Ah Jiu, it doesn't make sense.

Ah Jiu pursed her lips and smiled, looking sideways at the serious Xue Zhen: "Anyway, it's just a matter of raising a hand, what will happen to him after he returns to the teacher's gate, then I don't care about my business."

Xue Zhen didn't continue talking, and changed the subject: "Just now outside the mansion, can you notice the person standing by the stone lion?"

Ah Jiu shook his head in a daze: "Who?"

"Mrs. Xue."

Suddenly, Ah Jiu's spine felt cold.

This... how to put it, I don't know if she knows that Alan is dead.

And if Madam Xue was told about Tuoba Yan directly, it was inevitable that she would go straight to the capital to find her son.

What kind of place is the capital? It is a place that is easy to enter but difficult to return to. In addition, Mrs. Xue has a special status, let alone retreat unscathed.

"Then...then she's gone?" Ah Jiu asked cautiously, and then told Xue Zhen her concerns.

Xue Zhen nodded: "I think it's better to tell her directly. It's not enough to drag it down. As for how she chooses, that's her business."

Ah Jiu gasped, and said it lightly.

At this moment, someone from the house came to spread the word that Mrs. Xue wanted to see Meng Jiu'er.

Ah Jiu couldn't help frowning: "Xue Zhen, I really can't tell you about this matter, and I don't know how to start with peace."

Xue Zhen nodded.

study.Ah Jiu did not entertain Mrs. Xue in the flower hall outside.

All the guards in the backyard were shunned by Ah Jiu.

A pot of scented tea, filled with the aroma that infused the tense atmosphere in the study.

Ah Jiu first poured a glass for Mrs. Xue, seeing that she hadn't seen her for more than a month, but her haggard cheekbones were sunken.

The corners of Madam Xue's mouth twitched stiffly: "Miss Nine, is there..."

Mrs. Xue's eyes were full of sadness, she didn't look any better, her face was sick, and she coughed halfway through her words.

Xue Zhen took the conversation and said, "Mrs. Xue, we, the master and the apprentice, learned of Mrs. Lan's death the second day after we arrived in the capital."

Ah Jiu swallowed a breath of air, this Xue Zhen didn't know how to turn a corner, how unacceptable it was to say it directly, look, Mrs. Xue's eyes widened, covered with a layer of fog visible to the naked eye.

Just as Ah Jiu was about to comfort her, Xue Zhen made another stab:

"Alan assassinated the emperor on the execution ground, and Ning'er is now in prison waiting to be executed."

"..." Ah Jiu looked at Xue Zhen and Mrs. Xue.

Madam Xue's face instantly turned pale, and the corners of her bloodless lips twitched a few times before she said:

"Ning'er...is she in prison?"

"Not bad." Xue Zhen slowly picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, then said calmly:
"Things from the past may surface because of your eagerness to find a child, and the consequences will be disastrous."

Only then did Ah Jiu understand why Xue Zhen spoke so directly. He was telling Mrs. Xue that if it continued, more people would die, including Meng Jue, and Meng Lie's son would not be saved.

Mrs. Xue is naturally extremely intelligent, and after a moment of wandering eyes, her eyes finally cleared up a lot:
"Then..." He hesitated to speak.

Only then did Ah Jiu speak: "Madam Xue said bluntly, I have known about the Meng family and you for a long time, Concubine Chang, I have experienced you very much."

A word of Concubine Chang made Mrs. Xue's pupils tighten instantly.

She opened her mouth for a long while without uttering a word.

It took her a cup of tea time to change her expression from nervous and fearful to calm. During this cup of tea time, she seemed to recall from the day she married the emperor all the way to the present.

The air is quiet and the smell of needles falling can be heard.

Xue Zhen was not in a hurry, and just waited for Concubine Chang to calm down on her own.

"Since..." Concubine Chang straightened her back, the sadness in her eyes was replaced by a majesty, she stood up slowly:
"Since you have known about my life experience for a long time, but you have never stated it, you are protecting yourself, and you are also protecting me."
