The concubine was reborn, and the cold prince was made red in the face

"Then what should we do now?" Zuo Xiangning was secretly worried, "Maybe my eldest brother still doesn't know about things in the capital?"

"He may not know it on the way, but he should be able to get the news when he gets to the border. But if he gets the news, it will be of no use other than being anxious." The man couldn't bear to see her anxious, and said, "I will think of a solution then. , see if I can let you meet Princess Chu."

"Really?" Zuo Xiangning's eyes lit up, she smiled subconsciously and saluted the man, "Thank you so much."

The man reached out and grabbed her arm. The two looked at each other. Zuo Xiangning's eyes fell on the eight-pack abs in front of the man...

The man felt the woman's gaze, and unconsciously raised his chest and tightened his abdomen. The muscles in his waist and abdomen were tied tightly, as if they were stones.

Zuo Xiangning swallowed, stood up straight, and walked aside with a blushing face.

"It's cold at night. Don't catch a cold again. It's better to put on your horse clothes quickly." Zuo Xiangning coughed lightly, "Everyone has worked hard for many days. When we get to the capital, I will give you two thousand taels of silver. Reward everyone.”

"How much money do you have in total? One payment is several thousand taels. How many times can you give it?" The man smiled and took out his clothes from the closet and put on them.

"I don't have much money, but these people have suffered because of my fear, so I should give them some compensation." Zuo Xiangning said: "As for you... I have a shop, and I bought it for more than 700 taels of silver, so I gave it to you as a gift. Here you go.”

"What are you thinking about? How can I still buy your little shop?" The man said happily: "You put your heart back in your stomach, I don't want any money from you. The most important thing I don't need is money."

Zuo Xiangning looked at the man's exposed chin, and the pleasant curve seemed more and more familiar to Zuo Xiangning.

But his chin was square, but the man she had in mind was much narrower.

"Go back and sleep a little longer. We have to ride a carriage for a day tomorrow." The man said.

"You should also rest early." Zuo Xiangning withdrew her gaze, turned around and walked out.

The man looked at her back and couldn't calm down for a long time.

"Xiang...Miss Zuo," the man called out to her.

Zuo Xiangning looked back at him, "What do you want to say to me?"

"When you return to Beijing this time, no matter whose people catch you, you won't be able to escape. And not only you, but also the entire Zuo family will be implicated."

She felt uncomfortable thinking about returning to the capital but not being able to see her family.

"I know." Zuo Xiangning's eyes couldn't help but turn red. She looked at him and asked, "Do you have anything else to say to me?"

"Don't worry. After a while, I will naturally find a way for you to meet your family." The man comforted, "But when you go to the capital, you must obey me in everything, and you must not make your own decisions."

Zuo Xiangning nodded, "I know the importance."

"Go." The man walked her to the door.

Zuo Xiangning entered the next room in disappointment and closed the door.

She thought he was going to tell her who he was, but he still refused to tell her.

The man on the other side didn't see what she meant.

What he thought was that taking her to the capital would indeed cause him a lot of trouble, but he was willing.

The next day, we took another one-day and one-night carriage ride. On the morning of the third day, it was just dawn, and the carriage entered the capital. It turned left and right on the main street and entered a small alley, and stopped in front of a small courtyard.

Zuo Xiangning opened the car curtain and looked at the familiar couplets on the courtyard door. She staggered and almost fell off the carriage.

The man stood beside the carriage and took her out of the carriage, and asked nervously: "What's wrong with you?"

Zuo Xiangning never expected that she would return to the small courtyard where she last lived in her previous life.

"What did you see?" The man looked at both sides of the alley in confusion. There was no one there, but why did her beauty turn pale as if she had seen a ghost?

"Live in this courtyard?" Zuo Xiangning closed her eyes, knowing what was in this courtyard.

She can't live in this courtyard. Living here would be like returning to her previous life.

She would have nightmares every night, she couldn't stand such torture!

"No." The man took a deep look at the small courtyard she pointed to, and then helped Zuo Xiangning walk to another courtyard in front, "Let's stay here first."

Zuo Xiangning breathed a sigh of relief and followed him to another yard.

In the palace, the emperor looked at the man kneeling beside his bed, smiled and waved to him, "Ling Xiao, you brat is finally back! Come here and let me take a good look."

"Ling Xiao is back." Looking at the old man in front of him who was like a father and an uncle, Ling Xiao's voice was choked and he kowtowed again before standing up.

"What kind of crap is that on your face? Take it off and throw it aside." The emperor frowned and said, "Why does it look so annoying?"

"I have injuries on my face. I'm afraid I'll shock the emperor." Ling Xiao said bitterly.

"Am I scared?" The emperor feigned anger: "Take it off and sit next to me. I want to see it. Why did you scare me?"

Ling Xiao took off his mask as instructed.

The emperor asked him to come forward, squinting at the scar on his face from his nose to the bottom of his left ear, and said distressedly: "Why is it so badly injured?"

"I was unconscious and scratching on the stone." Ling Xiao said with a bitter smile: "It took a lot of effort to save this little life."

"You kid is really uneasy. After suffering such a big crime, you just ran away secretly? Why didn't you come to me? Can I still make the decision for you?" The emperor became more and more angry as he continued to cough. Several times.

Ling Xiao hurriedly stepped forward and patted his back.

The emperor pulled him to sit on the chair next to him, "Ling Xiao, I'm afraid I won't live too long."

"Your Majesty, you..." Ling Xiao's face changed drastically. Just as he was about to stand up and kneel down, the Emperor pushed him back to the chair again, "I'm not asking you to return to the capital just to make you kneel down for me. I have I want to ask you something."

"If you have any questions, just ask them." Ling Xiao said hurriedly.

"Tell me honestly, who should I pass the throne to?" The emperor sighed, "I am really alone now. The people around me started to form cliques when they saw that I was not in good health. Stand in line, no one is willing to tell me the truth, the only person I can trust now is you."

Many thoughts flashed through Ling Xiao's mind, but the last thing that flashed through his mind was Zuo Xiangning's face.

If King Chu loses, neither King Chu nor Princess Chu will be well off, especially the eldest grandson of the little emperor, who will undoubtedly die.

And Zuo Xiangning's feelings for Princess Chu's mother and son are extraordinary...

"I know that you grew up with several princes, and you have a very good relationship with them, especially the second and fourth sons. They were almost inseparable when they were young. Now I ask you to choose, I guarantee you will be in trouble, but this throne There is only one, you can only choose one of them." The emperor said: "You are in charge of Wufutang. You don't know all the news about our Jin and Southern Dynasties, and you are the only one who knows their personalities best. I want your help. Choose a wise king in the Jin and Southern Dynasties."
