Don't ask where people go

Chapter 1447 Inquiry
"Miss Awan." Xiahou Yunzhao moved his eyes away and looked at Awan and said, "If someone told you that the Duke of Xian Yue was still alive, would you also think it was unimportant?"

Awan's heart tightened, "What does General Xiahou mean by this?"

"What do you mean?" Xiahou Yunzhao's face was as dark as water. "Not everyone will choose the latter between the truth and the false reputation. The Duke of Xianyue never asked me and made the decision for me on his own. I can't spare her. "

"The Duke of Xian Yue has passed away, can't General Xiahou leave some peace for her?" A Wan shouted suddenly, Xiahou Yunzhao said unceremoniously: "Why, I can't pursue the case after someone dies? ?”

Awan's expression froze, but she saw Xiahou Yunzhao turning to look at Fang Zilan, "Mrs. Crown Prince, what do you think?"

Fang Zilan pursed her lips tightly, and Xiahou Yunzhao snorted coldly, "If Madam Shizi has anything else to say, say it all as soon as possible, so as not to miss the chance in the future."

"I have nothing to say." Fang Zilan knew very well that Xiahou Yunzhao not only recognized her, but also came for her. In this case, it would be hard for her to sit in the hall and cause trouble to Li Qiyou.

So she stood up and saluted Li Qiyou, "The Su family's case has been revealed, and my wish has been fulfilled. Please allow me to take the first step and go back to take care of my husband."

Li Qiyou's expression was dark and unclear, but he still nodded in agreement. He watched Fang Zilan leave the hall and Xia Hou Yunzhao followed him out, forcing himself to focus on the unsolved case.

Fang Zilan did not look back. She knew that Li Qiyou would not be kind now that he had made up his mind. In addition, Zhuge Yu, Su Yun, Pei Xiaoze, Zhou Lang and others were all in the hall, so she had nothing to worry about. On the contrary, it was Xiahou Yunzhao behind her who came with bad intentions.

Seeing this, Xiahou Zhang, who had been hiding in the dark, wanted to follow quietly, but was stopped by a plain white figure, "Master Xiahou, stay here."

"Mr. Thank you?"

"Zhaozhao is not the head of the family anymore." Xie Chen quietly interrupted Xiahou Zhang's words, his lips curved slightly, "Zhaozhao doesn't want to involve the Xiahou family, so I can't come?"

Xia Houzhang was about to speak but stopped, and Xie Chen's smile deepened, "My surname is Xie." After he said this, he stopped another person in a flash.

"Where are you going, Master?" Xie Chen calmly stood in front of Hongtai, who was dressed as a government servant, but what he was looking at was the plum sword in his hand.

"Xie Chen, long time no see." Hongtai held the plum sword in his arms and tried to cover the plum branch on the hilt, but it was like there was no silver in this place.

"If you want to give her a sword, you might as well give it up." Xie Chen glanced at the sword hidden in Hongtai's arms and heard him ask: "Why give up?"

"If the plum sword is not in her hand, she still has room for quibbles in front of Zhao Zhao." Xie Chen said in an understatement, and Hongtai's expression turned cold, "Is it interesting? Xiahou Yunzhao was originally going for her. Is the plum sword here? Even Xiahou Yunzhao can't let her go."

Xie Chen raised his lips with a half-smile, "Since the master knows, why go all the way in vain?"

"Why on earth did she offend you and your wife, so that she must be killed?" Hongtai's hand covered the hilt of the sword, as if he would take action at any time.

"Master, compared to her situation." Xie Chen suppressed a smile and said seriously: "You'd better consider yourself."

"Xie Chen, I have offended the Xiahou family." Hong Tai raised an eyebrow, "That has nothing to do with you, Xie." "The Xiahou family may have nothing to do with me." Xie Chen drew his sword, "But Zhao Zhao has something to do with me."

Fang Zilan rested her chin on her hand, stared at Awan calmly and said, "If you want to talk, then talk. If you don't want to, forget it."

"You've left me here, so why don't you let me speak?" A Wan muttered softly, curling her lips and saying, "I heard that because of the incident in which Prince Rong'an was assassinated and reported to the emperor, people from all walks of life in Guimen have complained about Prince Rong'an. I don't know why the young master has been holding back, but he has always said that he has his own plans. I wonder if Prince Chujiang's return to the capital is the young master's plan?"

Fang Zilan pondered for a moment, the relationship between Ji Ningtian and King Rongan is quite secretive, and few people know about it even among the ghost sect. Therefore, it is reasonable for people in the ghost sect who do not know the truth to be dissatisfied. But with Ji Ningtian's temper, he would always return ten blows to others. He would rather be afraid of others than swallow his anger, and he would definitely not be soft on King Rongan.

Therefore, when King Chu Jiang returned to Beijing, he must have discovered something, and he was probably able to figure out what happened to King Rongan...

"Speaking of which, I also discovered something." Chu Bin's voice brought back Fang Zilan's thoughts, "These days, I often follow General Zheng in and out of the Royal Post House. Since Princess Rongan rarely goes out, I go there secretly. I went to observe her room and found that her personal maid had a very strange attitude towards her."

Fang Zilan asked: "What kind of weirdness?"

Chu Bin thought about it and said: "The maid seemed to have the utmost respect for Princess Rongan, but her words and deeds were full of discipline, as if she was afraid that Princess Rongan would do something extraordinary and lose her status."

Hearing this, Fang Zilan couldn't help but frown. Several seemingly unrelated things were all related to Princess Rongan. King Rong'an came to the capital this time to choose a son-in-law for her, but at this juncture, King Chujiang also brought a woman to the capital. Is it possible...

She calmed down, took a deep breath and said, "Do you know what King Rong'an's weakness is?"

"Weakness?" Xiao Xuan'er frowned slightly and said without thinking: "Of course it is Princess Rong'an. The princess is the only daughter of King Rong'an, and King Rong'an values ​​his daughter much more than his own life. "

Yes, there may be thousands of reasons for King Rong'an, but there is only one weakness from beginning to end, and that is Princess Rong'an.

Ji Ningtian will not use King Rongan's excuse as a threat, just because King Rongan's biggest excuse - his collusion with the underworld, is related to him, and he will not be stupid enough to shoot himself in the foot.

Since there is no handle, only by grasping the weakness can we have absolute leverage to suppress the opponent.

In other words, the woman that King Chu Jiang brought to the capital was most likely the real Princess Rongan, and the one in the royal posthouse was an imposter. In this way, there is an explanation for why Princess Rongan never appeared in front of others.

It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s that I can’t. Especially when you enter the palace to pay respects, if you are discovered by others, you will be deceiving the emperor and neglecting your superiors, which is an unforgivable crime.

It's like a cat-and-mouse game. Ji Ningtian is the cat grabbing the rat's tail, and King Rongan is the rat, running around anxiously in every possible way, but still unable to escape the cat's control.

When the cat lets go, no one knows whether the rat is facing a trap or an escape route.

Unless...the real Princess Rongan returns to the Royal Post House and everything returns to its place.
