Chapter 202

King Yan?

Shen Xi's heart moved slightly, and he sat down thoughtfully.

Based on seeing the relationship between Xiao Huai and King Yan in the yamen before, she has always been somewhat on guard against King Yan.

She just believed for no reason that even the emperor and empress dowager could not do anything to Xiao Huai in this world, but King Yan would definitely be able to suppress him.

This time the marriage was granted so suddenly, I don't know what attitude King Yan will have when he comes back?

She was secretly worried about Xiao Huai, so don't let him suffer anything because of her.

"Don't worry about it, just deal with the matter at hand. Tomorrow, I'll ask Wang'er to inquire around the Qionghua Terrace."

She got up again.

After dawn, people were called to move the yard.

After a busy day, it finally stopped at dusk.

As soon as the Xiangcheng gate was closed here, the flying rider knocked on the gate again, and drove into the Yanjing City that had just returned to calm.

The sound of iron hoofs was like a shower, walking along the wide street to Yanwang Mansion on the west side of the palace, startling a flock of crows and birds along the way...

"Welcome to the prince!"

Inside the Duanli Gate, Xiao Huai and He Lanzhun led the officials and guards of the palace and shouted in unison.

King Yan got off his horse, threw the whip to the servant behind him, and walked straight to the Chengyun Hall.

"Is Chaozhong okay?"

Xiao Huai followed behind him and said, "Recently, our yamen changed departments; the southern suburbs of Dacang burned more than a thousand shi of grain due to the fire; the five city officials, Ma Si, withdrew two deputy commanders.

"Taipu Temple has newly imported dozens of Mongolian horses to improve the quality of horses in the Northwest. Except for something that happened to Longsheng, the rest are fine."

When King Yan stepped into the palace, Xiao Huai had just finished his report.

He turned around in front of the throne, stared at him for a while, took off the sword and handed it to He Lanzhun, and said, "I heard that your marriage is settled?"

Xiao Huai looked at his nose and his heart: "Yes."

"Shen Ruopu's granddaughter?"

"Yes."

King Yan stood three feet in front of him with his hands behind his back, and said: "In order to give you a marriage, you took the cousin girl of the Han family to the northwest?"

Without hesitation, Xiao Huai said, "It's just the opposite. My purpose of taking the Biao girl of the Han family to the northwest is for the Yan Palace."

"Really?" King Yan asked.

Xiao Huai remained calm, and continued: "Han Dun and the Queen Mother concocted a fake assassination case, just to pave the way for raising Han Dun's status in the future.

"Han Dun's goal is to control the imperial court, including Prince Yan's mansion, Song Jiao is an accomplice, and I made her go to the northwest just to make an example of others.

"I thought that although Prince Yan's mansion had no evil intentions, it wasn't something anyone could reach out to."

King Yan's eyes gradually turned cold.

Stared at him for a while, but said nothing.

The servant served the tea, he took it casually, drank a couple of sips, and then said: "This granddaughter Shen Ruopu was smart when she was young.

"When I was three years old, I traveled far away with my parents, and my temperament changed when I was ill halfway. Although I have been carefully taught by Shen Chongxin and his wife for more than ten years, it is still difficult to enter the elegant hall.

"However, only a few years after the death of Shen Chongxin and his wife, she shined at the palace banquet. She can even become the jade appraiser in your jade shop.

"In just a few years, she has cultivated this ability, what does she want to do?"

The atmosphere in the hall was somewhat solemn.

Xiao Huai didn't seem to notice it at all: "It's not a bad thing for a girl to be eager to learn and make progress. If she didn't defeat Song Jiao with this ability, I would still look down on her."

King Yan narrowed his eyes and said, "I thought that in this world, there was no one you could easily fall in love with."

"The only thing I admire about her is because Song Jiao regards her as an enemy.

"Song Jiao was originally sent by them to propose marriage to me. Although I don't want her, how can I let others marry her back under my nose?

"If I don't want it, no one else will. As for myself, I don't think it makes any difference whether I marry someone surnamed Shen or something else."

Every word he uttered was cool, and the tyranny between his eyes was fully revealed.

King Yan stared at him, raised his eyebrows and said: "If you don't like a woman, it may be troublesome to marry back."

"I don't think any woman is qualified to be my trouble." Xiao Huai looked up at the caisson ahead.

Speaking of this, the tyrannical meaning seems to have been written on the face: "I will only remember the admonition of the prince, and only power is the most worthy of my cherishment."

King Yan looked at him for a while, then said slowly, "If you really think so, it's fine."

"If the prince doesn't believe it, you can open my heart and have a look." He raised his lips to look at him, as if he was about to draw a knife in the next second.

Yan Wang's eyes gradually revealed a trace of displeasure, and in an instant he frowned and said: "Go down!"

Xiao Huai didn't stop, and exited the palace gate.

King Yan waited for him to sink into the twilight with a hint of sullenness in his eyes, then turned his head and said to He Lanzhun: "He said that the marriage was given because he was not convinced, do you believe it?"

He Lanzhun was noncommittal, and said for a moment: "Your subordinate can go and check."

King Yan didn't speak any more, and looked up at the glass screen in front of him.

And the face reflected by the glass that resembles Xiao Huai's eyes is gloomy, and his thoughts have drifted away to nowhere.

When He Lanzhun returned to Yulan Palace, a long sword stabbed towards him like lightning!

He stepped back quickly, stepped on the pillars and climbed up to the eaves, but Xiao Huai who was holding a sword followed closely behind him like a shadow.He Lanzhun had no choice but to take the sword dropped by the guards below and fight him.

On the roof of the Yulan Temple covered with glazed tiles under the crescent moon, the only sound of clashing weapons was heard.

But soon, the Longquan sword in Xiao Jian's hand was pressed against He Lanzhun's chest!
"Hands and feet are fast." Xiao Huai's voice was like ice.

Although He Lanzhun had been defeated, he stood on the roof without showing any signs of depression.

He said in a rambling voice: "I sent someone to pass the news of the marriage, but do you think I also sent the news of Miss Shen?
"If it was passed on by me, how could the prince not know about the case where you often met her at the Qionghua Terrace?"

There was still chill in Xiao Huai's squinted eyes.

But in an instant, the sword was withdrawn.

He got off the ground without saying a word, and strode out of the palace door as if nothing happened.

He Lanzhun waited for him to leave, meditated on the roof for a while, and then came down again. "Go and check the Han family."

Xiao Huai went back to Zhaoyang Palace, and said directly: "Go and find out whether it was Han Dun's trick or someone else from the Han family."

Su Yan said yes, and pondered: "Miss Shen, do you need to make any arrangements?"

After all, King Yan may not be 100% convinced of his previous rhetoric.

Xiao Huai lowered his head and threw the sword on the couch, his voice became even more hoarse: "Let Liu Ling pass a message so that she will not show up these days."

After all, King Yan was not aiming at her, but at him.

In any case, this is a marriage bestowed by the palace, and no one can cancel this marriage unless there is an unreasonable reason.

As long as the marriage is not a problem, let him investigate what other people want to investigate.

Su Yan nodded.
