Daughter Shenghua

Chapter 254 Drawing the Line
The farce in front of the Duke Protector's Mansion soon came to an end.

After this incident happened, the various mansions appeared to be calm on the surface, but in fact, there were already turmoil in the dark.

The eldest princess did not intend to hide the news at all, and the "kindhearted" people informed Emperor Jing immediately.

Emperor Jing now only has a name for nothing, and the rights in his hands have long been divided.

Even though he was furious with the Yun family, there was nothing he could do.He couldn't even pay for those masked people, so he couldn't get in touch.

Before he knew it, he became a loner.

Emperor Jing was already in a hurry, but when he heard such news, he was furious and immediately fainted.

Then the news of Emperor Jing's stroke spread in the harem.

This made the originally precarious Dajing even more precarious, the power of the court was scattered, and the royal family had no successors.

The Dajing Dynasty seemed to be on the verge of collapse, and some loyal ministers who sincerely cared for the people also had other thoughts at this time.

Now there is only one princess Ling among the children of the royal family.

Although Old Prince Xuan's surname is Xiao, he has no blood relationship with the Holy Ancestor Emperor. Although the two are as close as brothers and are called brothers, strictly speaking, he cannot be regarded as the real royal blood.

That's why Princess Ling could marry into Prince Xuan's Mansion.

Xiao Muyun's identity is too complicated, and there are not many insiders left. If his true identity is revealed at this time, it will inevitably cause a lot of trouble.If someone with a heart makes a hindrance, I'm afraid there will be more troubles.

As for Princess Ling, Old Prince Xuan knew very well that she was not an illegitimate child, and she was not worthy of the status of a princess at all.But her identity can save Xiao Muyun a lot of things at this time.

These ideas are good, but they are just wishful thinking of the old prince, Xiao Muyun doesn't know about it.

Those officials who didn't know about it naturally didn't know about it, so Xiao Muyun became their first choice after weighing it up.

On the cusp of this crisis, Jing Bianhou brought people to the door.

In Prince Xuan's mansion, the old prince sat at the head and listened to Hou Jingbian's explanation of his visit.Just listening to his brows tightened, and his expression was a little unhappy.

"My lord, you have always been impartial and selfless. My daughter is being treated like this all of a sudden. I feel really uncomfortable. You also know that my daughter has just come back after a narrow escape, and now something like this happened again. Let the old prince be the master."

Jing Bianhou spoke earnestly and kindly, and he believed that the old prince was not an unreasonable person.In addition, they also helped Xiao Muyun a lot before, the old prince probably wouldn't save himself.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that the old prince hesitated for a while and then directly refused.

"What is the meaning of this, my lord?"

"Marquis Jingbian, are you sure it was done by someone in my mansion? Did you see that wet nurse in my mansion with your own eyes? But I have never heard of such a thing, you made a mistake. My Xuanwang mansion is There will be no such thing."

Jing Bianhou's originally smiling face gradually became stiff, and the teacup in his hand was slowly put down.

Seeing that the old prince didn't seem to be lying, his tone became serious, "Is the old prince really going to cover that one? Are you going to draw a line with my father and daughter?"

In fact, the old prince didn't want to be enemies with the father and daughter, not to mention that now the court Jingbian Hou is in power.

It's just that he is now taking advantage of Princess Ling's influence, if she is handed over at this time, I'm afraid it will cause some accidents, and besides, Marquis Jingbian will never let her go.

Once she died, there would be no point in standing and planning.

As for Marquis Jingbian, he thought that when Xiao Muyun came to the throne in the future, he would just make good compensation for their father and daughter.

In his heart, he thought that Marquis Jingbian was partial to them.So he chose this time to protect Princess Ling.

It's just that he misestimated the weight of Li's mother in Yun Xi's heart, and also miscalculated the weight of Yun Xi in Jing Bianhou's heart.

"Jing Bianhou, there are some things that you should know even if I don't tell you. Naturally, I can't hand her over at this time. See you soon!"

Jing Bianhou stood up, brushed his robe, snorted coldly, looked at the old prince and said, "Of course I understand what the old prince means, you have made a choice, right?"

Seeing Hou Jingbian's attitude, the old prince frowned, and said helplessly, "I really like that girl of yours, and I have no other intentions. If Yun'er can ascend to the throne of God in the future, there will definitely be a lot of people in the harem." She has a place. This king can guarantee it!"

At this moment, Jingbianhou was already so angry that his veins bulged, and he clenched his hands tightly into fists.

"The threshold of your Prince Xuan's Mansion is too high, and our father and daughter can't afford it. I already know what the old prince means, but our father and daughter are used to lawlessness. Please forgive me if I offend you in the future! Farewell!"

Jing Bianhou walked away in a flick of his sleeves.

The old prince wanted to persuade him a few more words, but Jing Bianhou turned around and walked away without giving him a chance.So he had to give up.

Jing Bianhou returned to the princess mansion with a face full of anger.

Seeing his appearance, Yun Xi knew that the matter had not been completed, so she hurriedly said, "Daddy, aren't they willing to let him go?"

Jing Bianhou slammed his fist on the table and said angrily, "Hmph! They want to cover up the murderer, but they insist on not handing over the murderer."

Yun Xi frowned and thought for a while, then asked: "The old prince probably won't save Daddy's face. What happened to Daddy these two days?"

Jingbianhou sighed and told the farce in front of the Duke Huguo's mansion.Then he told the old prince's compensation method again.

Yun Xi guessed what the old prince was thinking after a little thought, and her face was livid with anger.

But seeing Jing Bianhou's appearance, she still tried to persuade her: "Don't be so angry, Daddy. Let's think of a way."

Jingbian Hou looked at his meek daughter, and then thought of how deceitful Prince Xuan's mansion was, he was even more angry.

"Xi'er, they are really deceiving people too much. We have helped them so much over the years. You offended Xue Qing's mother and son because of that kid. You managed to survive several times. They still want to cover up the murderer! Did so many of us die in vain? Do you really think we can be bullied?"

"Xi'er, you must listen to me this time. I will never leave this matter alone. He Xiao Muyun harmed you, and he still wants to ascend to the throne of God so easily. He really thinks that I, the Marquis of Jingbian, is Is it for nothing? Hmph!"

"Xi'er, don't worry, I will save Mama Li back!"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Yun Xi to say anything else, she left angrily.

Yun Xi looked at Jing Bianhou who was leaving and sighed, "Qing Yi, you have to keep a close eye on what Daddy is doing, and you must let me know."

Tsing Yi said dissatisfiedly: "Master, do you still miss him? Prince Xuan's Mansion has now stood on the opposite side of us, you still want to help him!"

"Okay, I know what's in my heart, so don't worry about it. Hurry up and catch up with Daddy!"

"You really need to count!" Tsing Yi muttered and left.

Yun Xi supported her forehead, she didn't know when she and Xiao Muyun got to this point.

Right at this moment, Hongyi walked in quickly, "Master, Mr. Su is here."

Yun Xi's eyes lit up, and a smile immediately filled his face, "Quick, let him in quickly."
