Uncle, don't overdo it

Hearing Ximen Jingxuan's question, Lin Xiner slowly stood up and walked towards the window.

Looking around, you can see a wide field of vision outside, and you can see a desolate vegetable field and a row of plum trees.

There are still some days before the plum blossoms can bloom, but there are people walking slowly under the tree.

Their arrival did not alarm the people in the whole Zhuangzi.

That person looks old...

"I think it must have something to do with the court disaster ten years ago." Lin Xiner said, turning her gaze back to the old man beside her, "This old man must be related to a certain prince, right?"

"He is... Ximen Jiyao."

Ximen Jingxuan's answer made Lin Xiner gasp, and even Ou Nan who was on the side was stunned.Although he had been to this villa before under the secret order of King Xuan, he never knew the specific identity of the old man in charge of the villa.

"King Xiao!"

Lin Xiner sighed.

"Your Majesty is joking, King Xiao has already died in the Sunset River, and the old man is only called Ximen Jiyao."

Ximen Jiyao said and cupped his hands again.

Xiao Wang!

This is the King Xiao who has always been loyal to the Gu family that Gu Qingcheng belongs to, the King Xiao who was once the most qualified to inherit the throne!Rumor has it that due to the death of his beloved concubine, he went mad and fell into the Sunset River and drowned King Xiao!

"Surprised my mother." Ximen Jiyao apologized when he saw Lin Xiner's face full of astonishment.

"You have been able to live in seclusion here for so many years!" Lin Xiner sighed.

What surprised her was not that King Xiao was still alive, but that a generation of King Xiao was willing to hide here for many years and live a life of innocence. This is definitely not something ordinary people can do.

Even Ximen Jingxuan has her by his side, but this old man only sees loneliness from him.

"The past is dead, only the present." Ximen Jiyao smiled lightly, not feeling that his life was a big problem.

The previous Xiao Wang was dead.

Back then, he was poisoned by Yuehua Kingdom's agents, fell into the sunset river madly and was rescued by others. He didn't know what happened during that time, even he heard about it from Ximen Jingxuan later.

Until ten years ago, it was said that there was a disaster in the palace. Ximen Jingxuan found him in the cellar of the secret garden of the late queen mother, and he had already lived in this villa when he woke up.

20 years of them are blank in his memory. How many 20 years can a person have in his life? 20 years is equivalent to a person's entire youth.

But time has passed, even if he sighs again, what's the use?

Rather than clinging to the past, it is better to look down on life and live freely.

Living in this deep mountain is great!

"Prince Xiao is truly a great man." Lin Xiner was full of respect.

Compared with the revenge she has seen, those who are blinded by hatred and ambition, King Xiao's attitude towards life is the most admirable.

It is because of this that the peace of the Qingyuan Dynasty can be preserved.

Otherwise, as soon as King Xiao appeared, those who followed and admired him back then would definitely gather together again, including Gu Qingcheng!

"That's all, that's all!" Ximen Jiyao waved his hand, he was no longer used to this title.

"Just call him uncle." Ximen Jingxuan said.

According to seniority, Ximen Jiyao is his cousin, the son of his father's uncle.

"Okay, Uncle Ji Yao." Lin Xiner followed suit.

"You just said, who has been there in the past two years?" Ximen Jingxuan asked again.

"The second king, Ximen Jingzhao, the two sons of the third king, and the two princesses." Ximen Jiyao counted.

These are all people related to the chaos in the court ten years ago. Didn't Ximen Jingxuan personally execute those people?

Lin Xiner looked at Ximen Jingxuan.

It turned out that from the very beginning, he was not a cruel and ruthless person. Under that cold face, he hid tolerance.

But this kind of tolerance gave him the reputation of being cruel and ruthless, regardless of brotherhood.

"According to the old rules, they were all buried in the valley behind the villa." Ximen Jiyao continued.

"En," Ximen Jingxuan nodded, "You don't need to be busy here, go down first, I'll take Xiner for a walk and get acquainted with the situation here."

"Okay." Ximen Jiyao replied, then turned around and left the room first.

"You two go clean up, this is where Xin'er will live in the future." Ximen Jingxuan explained to Ou Nan and Yan'er.

"Yes!"

After that, Ximen Jingxuan took Lin Xiner out of the house and came to the row of plum blossom trees.

The figure under the plum blossom tree had left at some point.

The wind was blowing coldly, Ximen Jingxuan helped Lin Xiner wrap up the cloak, "It's cold, so be careful, don't catch cold."

"I'm not that weak." Lin Xiner smiled playfully.

This smile made Ximen Jingxuan feel distressed.

After going through so much, she is not weak like an ordinary woman, but he would rather she is just a delicate flower beside him, growing up under his careful care.

"This is actually a relic of the former dynasty, where the virtuous king lived in seclusion." Ximen Jingxuan looked around and said.

It turned out to be related to Leng Yanqiu.

"Back then, the two kings and the three kings were defeated, but dozens of members of the whole family were poisoned overnight. The poison is contagious. If it is not dealt with within a certain period of time, more people will be affected. Then A poisonous outbreak together created an unmanageable situation." Ximen Jingxuan told Lin Xiner about the past.

"It was a conspiracy between the Yuehua Kingdom and the Leng family." Lin Xiner understood.

"It is impossible to detoxify everyone in such a short period of time. As long as one person's poison is not detoxified, it will affect the next one one after another. Compared with killing them all within a certain period of time, It’s the quickest way to get it right.”

Ximen Jingxuan's brows were serious.

Lin Xiner could imagine his entanglement at that time. Even though the two royal brothers almost killed him, there must be innocent people among the dozens of people in the family. Let him kill so many people like opening a slaughterhouse, and his hands are stained with blood. Innocent blood is a very embarrassing thing.

What's more, even if he doesn't do it, when other people know that they are infected with that strange poison, they will definitely do it.

"Aside from letting them die, the only way left is to isolate them and find a chance to detoxify them." Ximen Jingxuan continued, "At that time, when I met Leng Yanqiu, he just asked me a question, to make them live. Still dead."

"You said you were going to give birth, so he told you about this place." Lin Xiner said.

Ximen Jingxuan nodded, "It's because of this that Yan Qiu and I started to have a good relationship."

At that time, a cover was created to make the world think that the dozens of members of the Erwang Rebel family died at the hands of Ximen Jingxuan, so as to avoid panic, and the poisoning of everyone was not announced to the public.

For the sake of the court and innocent lives, Ximen Jingxuan "stained" his hands with the blood of his brothers.
