As soon as Jiangmen Jiaojiao opened her eyes, she was paranoid that the prince had come to steal her

Chapter 396 Camellia
At this time, the sky was just dawning, and there were not many people on the streets.

The customs and customs here in Danzhou are different from those in other state capitals along Xie Zhaozhao's path, and the buildings on both sides of the street also have unique styles.

The carriage swayed down the street.

Xie Zhaozhao took note of the characteristics of the buildings along the road, and then the carriage stopped in front of a house.

The farmer who was leading the way had changed into a pair of high-quality clothes at some point. He turned over and dismounted first and said, "My master is here. Thank you for your invitation."

Xie Changzhi also dismounted and had people drag Xie Zhaozhao off the carriage.

Xie Zhaozhao followed them into the mansion with his eyes lowered. From the corner of his eye, he saw a lantern hanging in front of the mansion door with the word "Yang" written on it.

Xie Zhaozhao remembered that Chu Nanxuan’s mother’s surname was Yang.

I don’t know if this Yang is that Yang.

The farmer who led the way and Xie Changzhi walked forward without making any small talk.

After wandering around and arriving at a courtyard, the farmer went in to report.

Xie Changzhi stood outside waiting and glanced at Xie Zhaozhao without revealing any trace. Xie Zhaozhao shook his head slightly at him while lowering his eyes.

At this time, there are countless eyes around, and there must be no mistakes.

Xie Changzhi pretended to be fierce and snorted coldly and turned away.

"My master invites Mr. Xie to come in."

Not long after, the farmer came out, his tone was respectful and polite, and he glanced at Xie Zhaozhao, "Take this one with you too."

"Ah."

Xie Changzhi nodded and asked two soldiers to take Xie Zhaozhao in with them.

The garden is filled with the fragrance of flowers.

Xie Zhaozhao smelled the fragrance outside. When he entered the courtyard and saw the flowers, the corners of his lips twitched slightly, and a coldness flashed in his eyes.

These camellias in various colors are dazzling... Yang's favorite camellias in his previous life.

The manor where they settled in Danzhou was almost full of camellias.

Yang's yard needs to be replaced with new ones every day.

And she doesn't like ordinary camellias that bloom randomly, only rare varieties.

Cultivating camellias in the manor costs a lot of money every day, not to mention the gardeners and maids who take care of the camellias.

Xie Zhaozhao and Chu Nanxuan were here at that time, and they were in a critical period of recruiting troops.

The daily food and grass expenditure for an army of 10,000+ is a lot of money, but at this time, more money is needed to support Yang's camellia cultivation...

Xie Zhaozhao felt a little unhappy.

But Yang was her mother-in-law after all, and Xie Xingchen was there to persuade her, so Xie Zhaozhao could only endure it, focusing entirely on the dispatch of troops and horses and the preparation of food and fodder, out of sight and out of mind.

But now that I think about it, Xie Xingchen didn't know how to deal with her in front of Yang because she was so ignorant back then.

But the past life is already the past life after all.

Xie Zhaozhao lowered his eyes. There were so many camellias growing in this courtyard, and some of them were exactly the same as the ones Yang loved in his previous life.

Are neither Yang nor Chu Nanxuan dead?
But... when something happens to the Yang family in Beijing, there is a high probability that Emperor Xuanwu will personally order someone to take action.

How capable is she that she can escape from the surveillance of palace spies?

"Brother Changzhi."

Suddenly, a smiling male voice sounded, and Xie Zhaozhao was startled. He suddenly looked up and saw a man wearing a moon-blue round-neck brocade robe coming out of the house.

That man's sharp eyebrows and dark eyes were clearly Chu Nanxuan.

Xie Zhaozhao blurted out: "You're not dead?!" Compared to her shock, Chu Nanxuan seemed very indifferent.

He looked down at Xie Zhaozhao for a moment, then slowly came forward and squatted in front of Xie Zhaozhao, pinched her chin and forced her to raise her head, "Is it an accident? Of course I'm not dead... I still have to marry you, I What will you do if you die?"

Xie Zhaozhao spat at Chu Nanxuan without hesitation: "It has indeed been a disaster for 1000 years. You, a piece of shit, can't even dream of marrying me!"

Chu Nanxuan closed his eyes as he spat, and his whole body exuded a strong aura of ice.

The next moment, he raised his hand to slap Xie Zhaozhao on the face.

But his wrist was blocked by someone.

Chu Nanxuan raised his eyes and looked at Xie Changzhi who was blocking him with a gloomy expression, "What do you mean?"

"She is my sincerity." Xie Changzhi said coldly: "This sincerity cannot be hurt at all until you and I have settled the matter."

Chu Nanxuan narrowed his eyes.

After the two faced off for a while, Chu Nanxuan retracted his hand and stood up, "Okay! Let's talk first."

He glanced at Xie Zhaozhao lightly before entering the room.

There was no emotion in that look. Although it was indifferent and innocent, it made Xie Zhaozhao feel that he had become the prey of a ferocious beast.

Although she had been mentally prepared, she still subconsciously felt a chill on her back and stiffened up.

……

In the room, Xie Changzhi and Chu Nanxuan were sitting opposite each other.

The two of them drank two cups of tea quietly before Chu Nanxuan took the initiative to speak: "She is very alert. I am a little surprised that you can bring her out."

"She is just too smart." Xie Changzhi said expressionlessly, "But sometimes she is too smart to be smart."

"Oh? Tell me, how did you capture her?"

Xie Changzhi sneered and said, "She has always disliked me since the day she arrived in Yaocheng. She was suspicious of me and sent people to keep an eye on me. So I just kept doing it and deliberately leaked some flaws to her."

"After I lured her out of the city, I used cartilage powder on her, and then I captured the person."

Chu Nanxuan chuckled inexplicably and said, "You do have some tricks up your sleeve...then if you take her away, wouldn't Xie Changqing be suspicious?"

"will not."

Xie Changzhi smiled lightly: "Because I told him that I would accompany Xie Zhaozhao to find Mr. Lu."

Chu Nanxuan raised his eyebrows: "Mr. Lu?"

"A young man brought here by Xie Zhaozhao from the capital, named Lu Jingrong, is said to be a closed disciple of Mr. Zhaixing, the former divination master, and is known as the Fairy."

Chu Nanxuan's eyes moved slightly and he said lazily: "You are quite thoughtful in handling things. It seems that I have found the right person to cooperate with you."

"Without further ado!"

Xie Changzhi said coldly: "You said you want to work together to make a big plan, how do you plan it? Do you rely on you and me?"

"Brother Changzhi, please be patient..." Chu Nanxuan smiled lightly and said, "Since I want to plan something, I naturally have to have a certain level of strength to say this to you."

"What strength do you have?" Xie Changzhi said with a cold tone: "You were also a military commander in the DPRK. You should know how many soldiers and horses Da Qin has now - 80 troops."

"Even if you can control Danzhou and control the small ethnic groups nearby for your use, if you want to fight against the imperial court, you will still be trying to defeat the enemy with an egg!"

"Or do you think that you can achieve great things by relying on Danzhou's few stragglers? You shouldn't be such a naive person."

Chu Nanxuan chuckled and said: "Brother Changzhi has a keen insight... It is true that we can't achieve anything with the help of Danzhou's scattered generals, but if Brother Changzhi helps us capture the soldiers and horses of Yaocheng, we can do it in the southwest." It’s in our hands.”

"Isn't it?"
