Chapter 1045 Confused
"You're asking the wrong question. It's not us, it's me." Xuanzhen tapped the desk with his left hand, "I'm the one who wants to come here. Knowing that you are in trouble, I came here to help you.”

The corner of Yun Yiyi's mouth twitched, almost crying because of such fellowship: "I'm afraid it's not just for me..."

"I haven't lied to you, but I'm not too stupid..." Xuanzhen stroked his chin with his right hand, and seeing Yun Yiyi's speechless face, he said seriously, "Actually, helping you is one thing, and the other is I found out that the power of the Rightist Conspiracy this time seems to have some connection with the power that killed my father before, so I came here specially to investigate."

Yun Yiyi was surprised: "This matter is so dangerous, you still bring Princess Minghui with you?"

"I'm wronged. I originally wanted her to stay in the Western Regions, but she insisted on coming with me as if she was afraid that I would run away. Isn't there nothing I can do? Everyone is on board, and they can't be left on the beach. ... At that time, I will find another opportunity to let her go..." Xuan Zhen spread his hands, feeling a little helpless.

Yun Yiyi smiled, and clicked: "It seems that Princess Minghui has changed you a lot, you were not able to say that before..."

"Probably... this is the magic power of love?" Xuan Zhen glanced at Yun Yiyi hesitantly.

Yun Yiyi resisted the urge to roll her eyes, not wanting to admit that this man who has been dazzled by love is her fellow countryman.

She touched the joint of her index finger with the thumb of her right hand, and her expression became solemn: "When I returned to Yan's mansion, a man named Mr. Duan held me hostage. I tried to talk to him and dug out a lot of information. The greatest dangers encountered with Qinghe all come from him. This person seems to have started planning a long time ago. On the surface, he seems to be following the orders of the right minister, but I think he is more terrifying than the right minister. Maybe you can start with him .”

"Mr. Duan?" Xuan Zhen's eyes narrowed slightly, "I remember him."

"Remember what?" Princess Minghui pushed open the door, "What are you talking about?"

"I'm talking about why you haven't come up yet, I'm starving to death..." Xuan Zhen approached shamelessly.

Princess Minghui used an index finger to cover his approaching face, her cheeks flushed, "Look at your virtue, I'm not afraid that Mrs. Yan will see the joke."

Yun Yiyi had a low-key yet elegant smile on her face.

"Ma'am." At this moment, Chen Ci's voice came from outside the door.

Yun Yiyi went to open the door, Chen Ci supported Shao Xiu and walked in quickly.

"Are you all right?" Yun Yiyi looked at Shao Xiu with concern.

At that time, there were so many soldiers around the fourth prince, so I don't know if she was injured when she escaped.

"No problem." Shao Xiu waved her hand, pushed away Chen Ci's supporting hand, and opened the curtain. When she saw Princess Minghui, her eyes were slightly surprised, "Princess Minghui? Why are you here?"

"Guardian Shao?" Princess Minghui was obviously a little taken aback.

Xuan Zhen's neck was stiff, and he raised his eyes to look at Yun Yiyi, but he received the apologetic look in his eyes.

The situation was urgent before, Yun Yiyi didn't think about it, but thinking about it now, it's really not good.

But it happened, and there's no point in regretting it.

"This is?" Shao Xiu's eyes fell on Xuan Zhen next to Princess Minghui, giving her a sense of familiarity inexplicably.

Yun Yiyi coughed lightly, and was about to explain, but was first introduced by Princess Minghui: "This is my son-in-law, Xuan Zhen, and this is my savior, Shao Xiushao."

Xuan Zhen looked at Princess Minghui suddenly, with some surprise in her eyes, as if she did not expect her to say that.

Shao Xiu was stunned for a moment, then she quickly came back to her senses and looked at Xuan Zhen: "Did we meet somewhere?"

"I have never met Shao Hufa." Xuan Zhen looked calm.

Shao Xiu glanced at Xuan Zhen suspiciously, stepped forward quickly, and attacked Xuan Zhen with claws in both hands.

This change was unexpected by everyone.

Shao Xiu made a sharp move, but Xuan Zhen was caught off guard and subconsciously stretched out his hand to block it. He regretted it just for one move.

Shao Xiu was just pure fisting, and didn't show any internal strength. Taking advantage of the kung fu of grasping his wrist, Shao Xiu found that the other party didn't have much internal strength...

However, the strange thing is that Xuan Zhen seemed to be very familiar with her martial arts methods, and easily resolved her ultimate move. Only the former pavilion master can do this...

She moved her wrist, and was about to take out the thin whip around her waist. When she tried again, Yun Yiyi called Chen Ci to step forward to block it, and Shao Xiu had no choice but to withdraw her moves.

"Guarda Shao, alright, why are you fighting with your own people?" Princess Minghui dragged Xuan Zhen in front of her, seeing that he was not injured, she looked up at Shao Xiu.

Shao Xiu pressed the thin whip on his waist, with a calm expression: "Mr. Xuan and I hit it off as soon as we met, and we want to make friends with martial arts..."

The corner of Princess Minghui's mouth twitched: "Him? He's just a half-baked guy, he's always ineffective. Shao Hufa should find someone else to compete with..."

Xuan Zhen raised his eyebrows after hearing this.

"That's not necessarily true. Mr. Xuan just doesn't have internal strength. If he can cultivate internal strength, he might be above me..." Shao Xiu's eyes fixed on Xuanzhen.

Princess Minghui obviously didn't believe it: "Shao Hufa, stop joking, his three-legged cat kung fu is just out to make a fool of himself."

Xuan Zhen lowered his eyes: "What the princess said is that it was Shao Hufa who showed mercy."

Shao Xiu took a deep look at Xuan Zhen and said no more.

"Shao Hufa, why did you arrive in the capital so soon? How are the children?" Yun Yiyi quickly changed the subject.

Shao Xiu said seriously: "Madam, don't worry, I have sent the young master and miss to the protection forces of Xuanji Pavilion, and they will be fine."

Yun Yiyi nodded, and looked at Chen Ci: "Before, I asked you to send someone to the palace, is this method feasible?"

Chen Ci glanced at Shao Xiu subconsciously: "Returning to Madam, if it's just sending a letter, it's okay, but it can only be sent once a day, and it can only be sent in at night."

"Chen Ci is right. Xuanji Pavilion does not participate in any court battles, but it is still possible to send a letter." Shao Xiu added, "When is Madam going to send a letter?"

"Just today." Yun Yiyi sat down, picked up the pen on the case table, and began to write on the rice paper.

After a while, she took out a long black lacquered square box from her bosom, put the letter in an envelope, and handed it to Shao Xiu: "Protector Shao, please hand this letter to Qinghe."

Earlier, he beheaded the crown prince for her, but he didn't know what the situation is now.

But she believed that since he dared to do this, he would definitely leave a way out for her.

She left in a hurry and didn't see what was going on with him, but thinking about it, according to his ability, she wouldn't let her live too badly.

"Ma'am, are you sure your lord is fine now?" Although Shao Xiu came late, she also heard that Yan Qinghe cut off the prince's head in order to save Yun Yiyi, so she can still live?
Yun Yiyi pursed her lips: "I believe in him, he will be fine."

Seeing that she was so sure, Shao Xiu didn't want to spoil her interest, so she put the envelope away.

"Guest officer, the food is ready..." Outside the door, Xiao Er knocked on the door.

Princess Minghui suddenly remembered the dishes she had ordered, and when she was about to open the door, Yun Yiyi grabbed her clothes: "Princess, we are all being hunted down now... it is not appropriate to show up."

"You guys hide first, I'll let people serve the dishes first." Princess Minghui nodded clearly, and pointed to a corner of the inner room.

Shao Xiu and Chen Ci glanced at each other, then walked over there.

After the food was served, the three came out and sat on the side of the table.

"When is the princess planning to return to the Western Regions?" Although Shao Xiu was asking Princess Minghui, her gaze stayed on Xuanzhen.

Xuan Zhen didn't seem to feel her attention, and chose vegetables for Princess Minghui on his own.

"Okay, Xuan Zhen, this princess can't finish eating so much." Princess Minghui twitched the corner of her mouth when she saw the pile of vegetables piled up like a hill.

Xuan Zhen silently picked out some and put them into his own bowl, signaling with his eyes that she could eat.

Princess Minghui shook her head helplessly, and then she looked at Shao Xiu: "When you return to the Western Regions, it depends on when Xuanzhen will finish the matter."

Shao Xiu narrowed her eyes: "I don't know why Mr. Xuan is coming to the capital?"

"However, for some private matters, Shao Hufa wouldn't want to ask such detailed questions." Xuan Zhen raised his eyes and smiled.

Seeing that the atmosphere was stagnant for a moment, Yun Yiyi hurried out to smooth things over: "Today's dish is good, everyone eat more."

"That's right, drink this soup, it's delicious." Chen Ci also echoed.

Yun Yiyi smiled and picked some dishes for Shao Xiu with serving chopsticks and put them in her bowl.

"Shao Hufa, eat more."

Shao Xiu looked down at the hills of spare ribs in her bowl, and fell silent.

She turned her eyes at will, and when her eyes fell on the dining table, she was startled.

Every dish on the dinner table looks like it has been carefully selected, but... those dishes are all favorites of the former pavilion owner...

"Who ordered this dish?" Shao Xiu's lips twitched.

Princess Minghui asked suspiciously: "My princess ordered it, Guardian Shao, what's wrong? Isn't it delicious?"

"Why does the princess order these?" Shao Xiu ordered four or five dishes in a row with chopsticks.

Before Princess Minghui could speak, Yun Yiyi coughed lightly: "We all like these dishes, so of course we ordered them."

As she spoke, Yun Yiyi picked a piece of tofu and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Is that so?" Shao Xiu frowned, and looked at Xuan Zhen, "Master Xuan, do you like to eat too?"

"Naturally, I like to eat all the dishes ordered by the princess." Xuan Zhen took a deep look at Princess Minghui.

"Shao Hufa, what's wrong with you today?" Chen Ci looked at Shao Xiu, "You keep asking strange questions."

"It's nothing... just a little curious."

Shao Xiu paused with her fingers, and looked at Yun Yiyi: "Madam, I'm full, let's go to the palace to explore the way first."

Yun Yiyi stared at the almost untouched food in Shao Xiu's bowl, her eyes paused for a few seconds: "Okay, go get busy."

She originally wanted Shao Xiu to eat more, but if she stayed any longer, Xuanzhen's vest might not be able to cover her, so let Shao Xiu go.

Shao Xiu nodded, turned and left.

Xuan Zhen, who had been burying his head in his meal, heard the sound of Shao Xiu's leaving footsteps, looked up, then lowered his head again, chewing the tasteless vegetables in his mouth bit by bit.
