Chapter 297 The So-Called Enemy

This day and night, the white tiger chariot of the Lord of the Palace did not drive out of Lu'er Alley until midnight.

He Lanzhun not only drank, but also had injuries on his face and body.

The news reached King Yan at breakfast the next day. He was silent for a moment after hearing the news, and said to the attendant, "Take some medicine and apply it to your lord. Don't let him show up until the injury heals."

Xiao Huai's face was stained, and he didn't show up for the next few days, so he stayed in another courtyard to recuperate.

When Shen Xi heard that the two of them were fighting, he couldn't help but be shocked: "There is something wrong with you two! What kind of enmity is there?"

"The hatred is gone!" Xiao Huai said casually, gritted his teeth, stretched out his face and asked her to apply the medicine.After he finished speaking, he suddenly looked at her again, biting the corner of his lips and saying: "Jiaojiao."

"Huh?" Shen Xi raised his head while applying medicine to his face.

But he held back and didn't say anything further.After staring at her face for a while, he said again: "Do you also think this name is unpleasant?"

Shen Xi became more and more strange, and withdrew his hands and looked at him.

"I remember you said your nickname is Huan Huan, or I'll call you Huan Huan instead." He said seriously.

Shen Xi was very happy to finally have the opportunity to get rid of these two words, but she was still puzzled: "Why do you want to change it all of a sudden?"

What stimulated you?
"It's nothing. It's just that too many people use the word Jiao. It would be bad if people misunderstand it again." He said with a serious face.

Shen Xi looked at him for a long time and nodded without seeing any flaws.

Xiao Huai looked at her who was earnestly repairing her wounds, and felt sore in his heart.

Probably no one in the world can comprehend his mood at the moment.

At first, he thought that he could hold her in his arms and live happily ever after, but unexpectedly, Xu Jing bumped into him again.

And his kung fu is really not weak, he used to pretend he couldn't beat him, which caused him to miss yesterday and got stabbed several times on his arms and shoulders.

I didn't expect this fellow to be so insidious.It's so good to hide all your kung fu.

He couldn't help but rejoice, but fortunately, he was quick at the time and got the engagement off first.

"Slowly," he called.

"Ah."

He circled her and brought his face closer: "Han Dun's side, we will probably have to fight by ourselves."

Shen Xi raised his head, unable to understand what he meant.

He frowned slightly, stroked her face with his fingers and said: "He Lan Zhun said that the prince will also pull Han Dun off his horse.

"Although I don't know why now, but he recently found traces in the Chengyun Palace that he asked the Information Division to investigate Han Dun's details.

"Han Dun is Mrs. Bi's protégé, if he came forward, he would directly confront Mrs. Bi, which would be very bad.

"So, he wants to use us to deal with Han Dun. However, he won't show up. If he doesn't show up, that means the palace won't show up."

The meaning of the palace not coming forward is that no matter what happens, the two of them have to bear it.

And he is the only son of King Yan, no matter what, he will not be abandoned. In case of emergency, if he wants to abandon her, he will also abandon her.

Shen Xi looked at him and didn't speak for a moment.

"Don't look at me like that." He hugged her tightly, "I told you just to let you understand the situation, not to prepare you to be abandoned. Even if I die, I won't let you get hurt.

"Because I have to fight Han Dun to have the money to ask him for the military power of the three guards in Tongzhou. Only when I get the military power of the nearest three guards can I marry you back and completely protect you. Even if your blood is exposed, you will not be in danger. .

"After that, we will have the capital to fight against the imperial court and obtain the order to lift the killing of the Helian people."

Only when the imperial court completely abolishes this decree can the Helian people end their days of fleeing for their lives.

Shen Xi embraced him and said, "I see. If you tell me, then I won't doubt you even if someone puts a knife on my neck."

Having said that, she raised her head again: "But don't you have a grudge against He Lan? How could you trust him?"

Xiao Huai's eyes turned cold again.

He put down his hands and walked to the window, looking at the snow outside the window, he picked up a walnut and threw it out.

There is probably an opponent in this world, even if you hate him to death, sometimes you still choose to trust him, right?

He believed what He Lanzhun said.

Shen Xi couldn't help being curious again: "What kind of hatred is there between you and He Lan?"

He fell silent on the window sill for a long time before saying: "He betrayed me."

Shen Xi was slightly taken aback.

He went on to say: "At that time, there was only one descendant left in the Wei family, who once wanted to assassinate the prince, but after I failed, I hid him, but He Lanzhun reported this to Chengyun Hall."

Shen Xi was even more surprised: "The Wei family?"

"Yes." He looked into the distance, and said: "My mother is also from the Wuma tribe, her surname is Wei, 12 years ago, on the eve of the establishment of the kingdom in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the prince and Li Ding fought for military power.

"In terms of military achievements, the Xiao family is indeed no worse than the Li family, but since the uprising was initiated by Li Ding and supported by many counselors around him, it is obviously logical for Li Ding to ascend the throne.

"When Li Ding originally rebelled, he promised to grant the Xiao family the title of king, build a mansion and a capital, and promised to rule the country together.

"But Li Ding regretted it again, after all, how can others sleep peacefully on the side of the couch?

"In the name of Su Zheng's bloodline, he proposed that if the Xiao family wants to gain military power and stay in the capital, then the entire Wei family family with pure Wuma bloodlines must be killed."

Shen Xi could no longer move his feet.

If he hadn't told this secret, who would know?
"Then the prince did not do it?!"

He stared into the distance for a long time before saying: "If you didn't do it, how could there be no princess in the palace?
"In the end, he not only exchanged the Wei family for the right to stay in Yanjing, but also won the military power, forcing Li Ding to fulfill his promise."

Shen Xi felt blocked in his heart, as if he felt uncomfortable.

"I grew up in Cangzhou until I was nine years old. He fell in love with my mother at first sight when he led the army to pass by the ancestral home of the Wei family.

"Later, he asked his family to propose a marriage. Not long after they got married, he received a letter from Li Ding, and then he rushed to the south.

"Because they were afraid of being used by the enemy army, no one made this marriage public, and Xiao Jiawei's family also moved to avoid disaster.

"So apart from the two parties, no one knew that he was married in the first few years.

"When the Xiao family was finally besieged by the Qin army, my grandfather quietly sent my mother, who was pregnant with me, back to the Wei family who had settled down in Cangzhou.

"There was no one left in the Xiao family, except him and me who was still in the womb. I remember he came back to visit us a few times quietly, but left overnight.

"He Lanzhun was brought back by him when I was five years old, and we have been together since then until six years ago.

"My mother suffered so much in giving birth to me that I didn't have any younger siblings. He brought He Lan when I was five years old, and Huo Jiu also came when I was eight.

"They're all a year older than me, but because I've spent more time with him, it's great with him."

Having said that, he stopped, his brows furrowed tightly.

Add a small theater for entertainment:
Five-year-old Xiao Huai found the newcomer He Lan very strange.

Every day, not only the clothes are neatly dressed, but also the rice grains are not dropped when eating.

This puts him under a lot of pressure.

Especially when Wei Shi asked him to sleep with him at night.

Seeing his meticulous sleeping posture, he was even more stressed.

When the pressure is high, he can't help but want to pee...

"Su Yan! Pass the water!"

He was woken up by He Lanzhun's violent voice in the pool of warmth and humidity.
