Concubine's true colors

Chapter 403

It seemed to be for verification that Xiao Jinxuan really knew enough about her husband Ji Lingfeng in her previous life.

Almost as soon as she and Xiangping rushed back to the commander's mansion, they collided with a team of imperial troops dispatched by Ji Lingfeng in front of the gate of the mansion.

And this team, on the grounds that the valuables were stolen in the palace, was going to enter the commander's mansion to search in a grand manner.

Xiao Jinxuan couldn't see that the other party was just an excuse, but now the inside and outside of the capital is almost controlled by the Xiangfu family.

Now that a few imperial guards dare to come to the commander's mansion to make trouble, this is enough to see how unscrupulous the other party is now.

However, there are countless generals in Shuaifu's ancestors with outstanding achievements, so even the Xiao family's prestige was enough for Xiao Jinxuan to send this team of forbidden troops away in the end.

And when the team left reluctantly, Xiao Jinxuan immediately personally escorted Xiao Jinyu and brought him to Prince Rui's Mansion.

As a result, after this busy work, by the time Xiao Jinxuan turned back from Prince Rui's Mansion to the Xiao's Mansion, even the sky had completely darkened.

Since rushing to the palace early in the morning, Xiao Jinxuan, who hasn't had a drop of water all day, is really exhausted.

But wait until after she has eaten the dinner carefully prepared by Zhu Xin, and after she takes a bath and changes clothes.

Xiao Jinxuan, who was supposed to have a good rest, was leaning against the window, looking at the full moon in the sky, her expression was full of loneliness.

And this will be sitting in Xiao Jinxuan's room together, going out of the palace with the other party, this will be Xiangping who hasn't gone to rest yet.

After pushing aside a crystal clear lychee, she got up and walked to the window, and handed it to Xiao Jinxuan.

She couldn't help looking at the bright full moon in the sky, and said with a hint of melancholy:

"The moon in the sky is cloudy, cloudy, waxing and waning, but there will always be a full moon. But why is it so difficult for this person to be reunited after parting?"

Hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan, who took the lychee but was not in the mood to taste it, couldn't help but smiled wryly and said:
"In the world, there are few gatherings and many separations, and sorrows and joys are impermanent, but the bright moon has been hanging high in the sky since ancient times. I am just a tiny speck of dust in the mundane world. How can you go to Xiangping?" I hope that the relationship between people will be as long and eternal as the bright moon."

Nodding in agreement, Xiangping saw that Xiao Jinxuan hadn't eaten the lychee in his hand even now.

Immediately, without thinking about it, Xiangping took the litchi and ate it himself.

The two of them didn't distinguish each other, so Xiao Jinxuan just smiled slightly, then looked at Xiangping and said:

"Why did you express so much emotion today? It really doesn't look like Xiangping. By the way, do you still have contact with Mo Linzhi? From what you said just now, it seems that you still haven't been able to let go of each other."

Upon hearing this, Xiangping, who was also leaning against the window, couldn't help but bowed his head and smiled bitterly.

"Jinxuan, when you were in the handsome mansion to recite sutras for Brother Seven, Father just fell ill. In fact, I took advantage of this opportunity and sneaked to the Xinggong Bieyuan to see Brother Mo. But you know, he unexpectedly He opened a door and said he didn't know how to face me. In fact, I really don't care that he was castrated, I just want to be happy with Brother Mo as before, so I am satisfied. "

Hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help but patted Xiangping's hand comfortingly, and then said softly:

"Actually, Mo Lingzhi did this to not delay you, and told Xiangping to give up on you completely. After all, it is impossible for him to get together with you, the current princess, in this life. Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. In fact, his this This choice is indeed the most suitable for you.”

Although Xiangping is full of helplessness about the matter between himself and Mo Linzhi, he is slowly accepting and adapting now.

And after she was silent for a while, she couldn't help but glance at Xiao Jinxuan first, and then said in a hesitant tone:

"Jinxuan, actually, I have something that I've been wanting to ask you since I was in the palace just now. Even though the seventh brother died in battle, I really don't understand why you decided to marry my fifth brother. After all, others don't understand you, but I do, Jinxuan, you are definitely not the kind of woman who climbs the dragon and the phoenix, but why would you do this."

Hearing these words, a trace of sadness flashed in Xiao Jinxuan's eyes, and then forced a smile, she murmured:
"Xiangping, you and I have been sisters for so long, and there has always been nothing we can't say to each other. I really don't have a relationship with your fifth brother, but we have to come together. In the end, we just get what we need, after all Now that Xianyu is gone, it doesn't matter who you marry. As long as I can avenge him, stabilize the current court situation, and protect you safely, I have nothing else to ask for."

Seeing that Xiangping was still looking at him with puzzled eyes, Xiao Jinxuan immediately asked how Zhou Xianyu was murdered by Xue's family and the Bai family's help.

And Zhou Xianrui needs the commander-in-chief's mansion to rely on, so that he can balance the prime minister's mansion evenly, after talking about everything.

After Xiangping knew all the reasons of everything.

Immediately, she couldn't help shedding tears, stepped forward and hugged Xiao Jinxuan, and said with distressed words:

"Jinxuan, I'm sorry, my mother and concubine misunderstood you like that in the palace. Your life has been miserable since childhood, why do you have to sacrifice yourself now. Even though my fifth brother is indeed a good man, but you I don’t like him. Seventh brother has already gone, but I believe that if he knows, he will never want you to avenge him, and thus fall into the danger of the court.”

Hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan, who was looking up at the bright moon and silently shedding a line of tears, murmured in a cold voice:

"Below the marriage decree, everything is irreparable. If Xiangping was replaced by Mo Lingzhi and died in battle today, you will definitely take revenge for him at all costs. So don't persuade me anymore, because I have already died Putting life and death aside, helping your fifth brother ascend the throne and fight against the Xue clan, this is the only reason for me to live now."

With this bright moon hanging high in the sky, even people who are separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, when they look up at each other, they can all be bathed in the bright moonlight at the same time.

And in Guinan City, a hundred miles away from the capital, even though night fell, the vendors peddling along the street were still very lively.

But in this bustling market, Su Qin was so breathless that he looked like he was about to die, which was really out of tune with the noisy surroundings.

But this time, Bai Chu, who had always been difficult to deal with him, didn't speak out against Su Qi.

On the contrary, looking not far away, Zhou Xianyu, who was wearing a cloak, also said with an extremely tired look:

"I said Qiye, we are still busy on our way. When we get back to the capital, are there any good things? Why are you still interested in hanging out here today? If we have the time, let's find an inn to rest for a night." Ah, I have been on horseback almost every day for half a month, and now I can fall asleep on the ground."

Zhou Xianyu, who was pointing a purple jade bracelet to the full moon in the sky, was carefully appreciating it. Hearing this, he said lazily as usual:
"Don't worry, we will be able to return to the capital Changping in ten days or so. I have heard that Guinan is rich in purple jade, and Xuan'er likes this color the most, so I need to help her find a rare jade bracelet." After leaving for so long, I can't just bring her nothing and go back empty-handed."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that Zhou Xianyu, the king of war in the Great Zhou Dynasty, was actually in front of the jewelry booth where only women like to stop, and it was a joy to choose the one he chose.

After hearing these words, Su Qi, who was standing by the side, although his body showed a lazy look, after a flash of light flashed in his eyes, he said in a low voice:

"Qi Ye wants to go shopping, so let's go shopping. Anyway, it's still early, and it's not the time to be the most lax in guarding the city gate. It's a pity that in order not to affect the speed, when going north to Yeying, most of the hidden guards and personal guards, All of them stayed in Yangzhou. Those who followed were trying to find out your whereabouts, and only a dozen people were lost.”

Upon hearing this, Baichu was quite depressed immediately, and quickly continued:

"I really don't know what happened to the capital. The town a hundred miles away has begun to strictly control the city gate. You have to avoid the government office all day long, in case the news of your safe return, Qiye, is caught by the capital. The people here who tried to assassinate you will know about it. If not, based on our speed, it is estimated that this meeting can return to the capital."

The reason why the prime minister's mansion has a very solid control over the court is because apart from the court, all the officials in this place follow the lead of Xue's family.

Therefore, the words of the Great Zhou Wenchen's saying that they are all out of the Xiangfu are not groundless at all, exaggerating the fact that the Xue family does have the ability to shake the world of the Great Zhou.

After carefully putting the purple jade bracelet wrapped by the vendor in his arms, Zhou Xianyu walked forward leisurely, and said in a leisurely manner:
"Now that the enemy is clear and we are in the dark, as long as we don't expose our whereabouts, it will be quite beneficial to us. I don't ask for anything else, I just hope that Jinxuan can wait until I go back in peace."

Hearing these words, Bai Chu who was following on the side immediately had a flash of annoyance in his eyes, and then said rather helplessly:
"The princess still doesn't know about the fact that you are not dead, the prince. You must be in the capital, and you must worry about it every day. But I hate this official city gate, and the local government has strictly controlled it. Let's go first Several waves of people were sent back, but the letter couldn't pass the checkpoint at all."

When Bai Chu finished speaking, Su Qi couldn't help laughing bitterly, and then said with a headache:

"Without the letter written by His Highness, it is estimated that even if I rush back and tell the master that you are still alive. I am afraid that the master's cautious character and the inevitable chaotic situation in the capital will definitely not believe what I said. And There are only a dozen of us now, and it is not enough to protect His Highness you to lurk back to the capital safely, and there is really no way to transfer people to rush to the capital first."

Although Zhou Xianyu was brave and good at fighting, he was no match for thousands of soldiers.She knew how important the other party was to Xiao Jinxuan's heart.

Therefore, even if Bai Chu and Su Qi lost their lives, Zhou Xianyu would never make any mistakes.

Hearing this, in fact, he was most worried about Xiao Jinxuan, Zhou Xianyu who was afraid that the other party would think that he was dead in battle and make some impulsive actions, he was the one who was most anxious.

Looking up at the full moon, Zhou Xianyu's eyes flashed with worry, and he said silently in his heart:

"Jinxuan, give me ten days, and I guarantee that I will appear in front of your eyes without any problems within ten days. Looking at this moonlight, I can't help but think of you. If you are also looking at this full moon now, then How good it would be. Because if this is the case, seeing the moon is like seeing you, so the pain of lovesickness in my heart can be regarded as a moment of comfort."
