Mu family's little lucky girl

Chapter 213
Chen Xiao understood this time.

It turned out that Zhao Chang'an was the child of Emperor Hong Tai after his civil affair.

After he returned to the palace, one day he suddenly remembered Zhao Changan's mother, so he sent someone out to look for it, only then did he know that the woman who liked him back then had a child of his.

Now, the children are nine years old.

Emperor Hong Tai couldn't bear his children living among the people.

Immediately send someone with his order to bring the mother and son into the palace.

However, to his surprise, only the nine-year-old Zhao Changan came back.

However, Emperor Hong Tai didn't care about this either.

All he wants is peace of mind.

For him, taking the child back is peace of mind.

It turned out that the unfavored King Yi was his childhood playmate Zhao Changan.

Chen Xiao's mood was complicated for a while.

On the one hand, he was happy to see his childhood playmate, and on the other hand, he thought of his current relationship with Zhong Shanghui...

A few days ago, Chen Xiaogang received a letter from Wei Qi, which pointed out that Zhong Shanghui was now colluding with the people of Beidi and trying to overthrow the Great Zhou Dynasty together with the people of Beidi.

But the situation inside Beidi is also unstable now.

Haman's tough tactics have already made people in Beidi dissatisfied.

Now, in order to appease internal grievances, Haman sent envoys to the Great Zhou Dynasty to ask for marriage, asking Princess Qingyang to marry Mobei as a married princess, so as to maintain the diplomatic relations and friendship between the two countries.

However, this time because Haman bowed his head first, the initiative fell into the hands of Emperor Zhou Gaozu.

Bei Difang insisted on marrying Princess Qingyang.

Emperor Gaozu of Zhou refused.

The two sides are still negotiating.

But Beidi Fang still doesn't know that the princess they want to marry is not in the imperial city, but in a small mountain village thousands of miles away.

Zhong Shanghui had seen Wei Yan before.

This time sending someone to arrest her, maybe Wei Yan was accidentally seen by him while wandering around the town.

So, does Zhong Shanghui want to capture Wei Yan and go back to offer it to Beidi?
Or do you want to blackmail Emperor Gaozu of Zhou with this?

Chen Xiao didn't know.

However, a few days ago, after he learned of Wei Qi's reason for returning to Beijing, he was furious!
He didn't want his younger sister to marry Mo Bei as a victim of a political marriage, so he left Wei Yan in Anling County, and asked him and Mu Li to take care of his younger sister.

Thinking of these, Chen Xiao laughed angrily at that time.

He didn't want his younger sister to be a married princess, and Wei Yan was also unwilling, so Wei Qi let his younger sister stay here.

However, he chose to conceal this, and now he left the risk to Muli's family.

It's good that Emperor Gaozu of Zhou didn't blame him. Once the blame goes on, who can ordinary people turn to for reasoning?

Now Wei Yan is a hot potato.

Chen Xiao is not such a kind person.

It has nothing to do with him that Wei Yan marries anyone.

But it must not hurt Mu Li!
Chen Xiaola recalled Yuan's thoughts, looked straight into Zhao Chang'an's eyes, thought for a while, and then asked: "Aunt... how have you been in the palace these years?"

Zhao Changan lowered his head and glanced at his immobile body: "Are you sure we want to talk like this?"

Chen Xiao said lightly: "It's convenient to say so, lest you run away later."

Zhao Changan: "..."

Zhao Changan coughed lightly, his eyes sank, and his voice was unconsciously tinged with sadness.

"After I entered the palace, I seldom contacted my mother, but the nanny who took care of her would send me a letter from home every two months, telling me about her recent situation. These years, life has been going well. It’s not bad, it’s the end of all hardships, right?”

Chen Xiao narrowed his eyes, and a trace of surprise flashed across his handsome face.

"Didn't Auntie enter the palace with you?"

Zhao Changan smiled: "My mother didn't go. Although she is a country girl, she doesn't care much about the life of prosperity and wealth, and she doesn't like to compete with a group of girls to be jealous. Moreover, she thinks that if she enters the palace, she will lose her freedom. Isn't that true? The life she wants, she would rather have a harder life now."

"However, she didn't want me to suffer hardships with her, and the emperor didn't say that my mother must enter the palace, and my mother didn't go afterwards."

Looking back now, Zhao Changan felt that his mother's decision back then was very correct.

He heard more or less in the palace that in order to get the favor of the emperor, the concubines were jealous every day in the harem, fighting openly and covertly, his mother's temperament was really not suitable there.

Moreover, most of the women who can enter the palace to serve the emperor have some background in their families. In this case, after they enter the palace, they also have a backer to a certain extent, and most people would not dare to provoke her, but his mother is just a plain-haired commoner. Backing the mountain, and going to the palace, where they are all snobbish, his mother's life will definitely not be easy.

Chen Xiao nodded: "It's fine if you don't go, once you go to the gate of the palace, it's as deep as the sea, how can you have a better life outside."

Moonlight spilled on the river.

The surface of the river is glistening.

You can also hear the faint gurgling sound of running water.

Chen Xiao found a big rock and sat down, bent his right leg and placed it on the rock, with his right hand resting on his knee, hanging down casually.

The wound on the right arm has stopped bleeding.

But the blood stains on the white clothes are still shocking.

Looking at the sparkling river, he picked up a stone with his left hand, shook it in his palm, and threw it into the water.

The stone flew several times on the surface of the water, and finally sank to the bottom of the river.

He looked at the calm river, and after a long time, he asked in a low voice, "What's your relationship with Zhong Shanghui?"

Zhao Changan seemed to have expected that he would ask such a question, and was only slightly taken aback.

Continue to maintain a motionless posture, turn your eyes, and look in his direction vigorously.

From his angle, he could just see Chen Xiao's side face.

With a blank expression on his face, he asked calmly, "Do you believe me?"

Chen Xiao turned his head to look at him, Zhao Changan was covered in darkness with his night clothes, only his eyes could move.

Chen Xiao's gaze was as calm as water, but his aura was imperceptibly strong.

He chuckled suddenly, "Don't tell me you lurk beside Zhong Shanghui on purpose."

Zhao Changan smiled wryly, "It's really not."

"But it's not my wish to be by his side."

Chen Xiao frowned, "Why is that?"

Zhao Changan smiled sadly, and asked back: "I told you, will you help me?"

Chen Xiao asked coldly: "If I don't help, will you continue to collude with him and do things that hurt the people of Dazhou?"

Zhao Changan retorted, "Why not?"

"The Great Zhou Dynasty was originally said to be dishonest, and Wei Guokun rebelled. If it weren't for him, the Great Zhou Dynasty would still belong to the Yan family."

"As the prince of Daliang, I overthrew Da Zhou and completed the grand plan of restoring the country. I originally wanted to take back what belonged to me. At that time, Zhong Shanghui supported me as the new emperor. I just took back what was stolen by others. Why not?"

Zhao Chang'an obviously didn't think so in his heart, but he deliberately spoke ironically.

Chen Xiao looked at the unfamiliar yet familiar Zhao Changan.

After being silent for a long time, he frowned and said a piece of news that shocked Zhao Changan.

"Except for Emperor Hongtai who died in depression after being arrested, the rest of the Daliang royal family did not die."

"Besides, Zhong Shanghui knows the news."

Zhao Changan was shocked.

The pupils are dilated.

What this means is self-evident.

Zhong Shanghui used him as a pawn to pave the way for others.

This other person is the former prince Yan Xun.

Before the Great Liang was destroyed, the two people Zhong Shanghui was most loyal to were Emperor Hong Tai and Yan Xun.

Chen Xiao looked into those peach blossom eyes with their own melancholy, and there was sarcasm in them.

Said a cruel fact.

"You are a pawn in Zhong Shanghui's hands. What you are doing now is making wedding dresses for others."

Zhao Changan looked at Chen Xiao who was faintly angry.

Suddenly smiled.

It is said that Zhong Shanghui used him, so why not use Zhong Shanghui.

What's more, he never trusted Zhong Shanghui.

but……

Chen Xiao's words reminded him.

　Yesterday I was a nurse in the hospital. There were a lot of people in the ward, and most of them were sleeping in the corridor. I also wanted to get up at four o’clock in the morning to write an article, but I didn’t get up until six o’clock. Then I went to buy breakfast and took my dad to Do the inspection, now go back to the hotel to rest for a while, try to write more today, otherwise it will really be interrupted tomorrow┭┮﹏┭┮
　　The past two days have been very tiring. I ran in the hospital for a whole day yesterday. The high temperature of 37 degrees almost made me paralyzed.
