Mad Concubine Proud of the World: Your Highness is the most beloved

Chapter 269 The Terrible

The carriage bumped and went out of the city smoothly. Xia Ningxi slept soundly and soundly. When she woke up again, the night was over and the morning glow filled half of the sky, which was too beautiful to behold.

When she opened her eyes, she realized that she was sleeping on the bed. This seemed to be a house facing the water, with a cool autumn breeze blowing in from the window.

She rubbed her eyes and got up, walked to the window and stretched before washing up and going out, and whispered as she walked, "Husband, Yu Xuanzhen."

This was on the third floor, and there were a lot of people sitting on the second floor. It was obvious that this was a luxurious inn. The guests were having breakfast, and at the same time gossiping about family affairs, or talking about the sky and the sky.

Xia Ningxi leisurely went down to the second floor, and saw Yu Xuanzhen sitting at the window facing the water, and You Huang sitting opposite him, both holding a cup of tea in their hands, the ribbons on the black hair fluttering in the wind, beautiful Like a scroll.

After walking to the middle of the two and sitting down, Xia Ningxi pursed her lips and asked, "Have you all had breakfast?"

"I haven't eaten yet, I'm waiting for you to get up." You Huang smiled lightly.

"Well, then hurry up and order! I was very tired last night, I was already hungry." Xia Ningxi said, stretching out her fingers to beckon the waiter to order.

The three of them ordered three steamed buns, three bowls of sweet porridge, and two small stir-fries, which filled the table.

You Huang frowned, said: "There are so many, how hungry are you?"

"Just eat slowly." Xia Ningxi smiled, picked up a chopsticks and put a small steamed bun in her mouth.

As soon as he took a bite, he heard two young men in Confucian uniforms discussing mysteriously at the next table.

The blue Confucian man on the left said: "Did you hear that? There was a great chaos in Liudu last night. The soldiers and horses of several princes fought, and some old princes were shot and killed with hidden arrows when they sent troops to quell the chaos. Someone said It was done by the prince's people, some people said it was done by the fifth prince's people, it can be said to be a mess."

Xia Ningxi slowed down her chewing, and listened to the conversation between the two with her ears up.

The man in the blue Confucian uniform on the right sighed and said, "Of course I heard about it, it seems that our Canglan Kingdom is going to be torn apart!"

The man in the cyan Confucian uniform frowned and lowered his voice: "Then does your majesty leave a will, who will inherit the great rule?"

The man in the blue Confucian uniform also lowered his voice, and whispered: "I have heard about this. It is said that His Majesty left a will for the crown prince to ascend the throne. But last night, His Majesty died of poison, and it was rumored that the crown prince was not His Majesty's flesh and blood. Before he died, he held the fifth prince's hand and said that the fifth prince would inherit the throne."

"Hey! Isn't this completely messed up? But what should I do?"

"That's right! Therefore, the Fifth Prince and the Crown Prince are incompatible right now, and the good Canglan Country was divided by a palace chaos like this!" The man in the cyan Confucian uniform sighed and shook his head helplessly.

Xia Ningxi put down her chopsticks, stared at Yu Xuanzhen suspiciously, and asked, "Who shot and killed those princes?"

"Guess." Yu Xuanzhen kept it secret, but didn't answer her.Besides, there are many people here, so he can't say these things casually.

Xia Ningxi had already guessed the general idea, and asked uncertainly: "The master of Xuanyou Pavilion, Long Qianfeng, is yours?"

Yu Xuanzhen smiled lightly, looked at the hot steamed buns on the table, took one with chopsticks and brought it to her mouth, and said gently: "Eat it quickly! It won't taste good when it gets cold later."

Xia Ningxi was feeling bored, but she couldn't bear to ignore his kindness, so she bit the bun hard and began to chew it.

You Huang smiled helplessly, and turned to look out the window at the yellow leaves fluttering with the autumn wind.

After breakfast, Yu Xuanzhen took Xia Ningxi's hand out of the inn, and took a leisurely walk along the nearby pond.

After walking for a while, the two sat down in a gazebo, Yu Xuanzhen looked at her sideways, and said, "Let's rest for a few days, and then we will set off for Chaoyue Kingdom."

Xia Ningxi sighed with her chin depressed, and said, "What about Canglan Country? Is this the end? You won't kill Murong Yan?"

"My goal has been achieved, why kill him?"

Twitching the corners of her mouth, Xia Ningxi was still puzzled, she shook his hand and asked carefully: "Just tell me, what happened last night? I heard almost all the conversations in the hall, why did you Speak for Murong Cheng? Also, what is the relationship between Pavilion Master Xuanyou and you? What is going on between him and Murong Yan?"

Yu Xuanzhen raised his hand and rubbed her head, and said with a slight smile: "It's actually very simple. I speak for Murong Cheng, just to let some of the officials think that Murong Cheng's life experience was fabricated by Murong Yan. As for Xuan You Pavilion Master, he just made a deal with Murong Yan, but he didn't expect this deal to cause such a big commotion. What he didn't expect was that I would ask Yun Chen to notify Murong Cheng's cronies and send troops to fight against him. The men and horses fought."

"Now, I finally understand. According to this, Long Qianfeng was ordered to shoot and kill several princes, nine times out of ten. As for the Xuanyou Pavilion Master, you are the one who obeys the order!"

She affirmed the guess almost instantly.If Long Qianfeng obeyed Murong Yan's orders, he would never leave before the matter was over.Long Qianfeng's early departure showed that there must be other secrets behind it.

It's just pity for Murong Yan, it's really funny to be taken advantage of by others without even knowing it.

Thinking of this, Xia Ningxi's heart suddenly turned cold, she frowned, stared at Yu Xuanzhen's eyes, and took a deep breath: "Yu Xuanzhen, I only now understand how scary you are. It turns out that you want to destroy a dynasty. It really doesn’t cost a single soldier.”

"How could it not cost a single soldier? I have waited for more than ten years for this day."

Yu Xuanzhen lowered his head, kissed her eyelashes gently, and said softly: "The deepest concern in my life is you. If it is for you, I can give up everything."

"Come on! You coaxed me nicely again." Xia Ningxi gave him a blank look, stood up and was about to leave.

Yu Xuanzhen suddenly grabbed his hand tightly, took out a bracelet from his sleeve, and quickly put it on her wrist.

Xia Ningxi turned her head to look at the shiny black bracelet on her wrist. It was carved with delicate and complicated patterns of lotus flowers. Even the leaves were lifelike. The patterns were painted with red. I don't know what was used, it seemed that it would not fade.

The first time she saw this bracelet, she felt that she liked it very much. She couldn't help but caressed it fondly, and asked with a blink of an eye, "Where did you buy this thing? It's so delicate."

"It was a piece of ebony that I asked Luo Qing to arrange for someone to collect. It was very precious, and then it was carved into a bracelet and given to you." Yu Xuanzhen said indifferently.

Xia Ningxi's eyes widened in surprise, and she asked again, "Could it be that you carved this with your own hands?"

"Hmm~ that's right!" Yu Xuanzhen said hesitantly.

He didn't want Xia Ningxi to know how many times he had stabbed his hands in order to carve this hard, bone-like wood; he didn't want her to know how much effort he had put into finding a red paint that wouldn't fade; , It was the safflower juice mixed with a few drops of his blood that finally stopped fading.
