Daughter Shenghua

Chapter 78 The Dust Settles
The people of Rong'an were defeated and returned to the country, and they will not come to trouble again for a while. The Marquis of Jingbian is busy with the reconstruction of Yuezhou every day.

Yunxi handed over all the food that was plundered from Rong'an to Jingbianhou. Jingbianhou has been busy these days and has no time to have a good talk with Yunxi.

One day, he spared some time to visit Yun Xi's place. Due to the sudden arrival, Yun Xi was unprepared, and Jing Bianhou saw the wound on her face at a glance.

It was only now that Marquis Jingbian knew the reason why she wore a veil every time he saw Yunxi, and he was very annoyed under his heartache, how important a girl's face is, and he didn't know that his daughter was disfigured.

"Who did it, who?" Jing Bianhou touched the sharp sword hanging on his waist, his eyes were sharp, as if it would be unsheathed at any time.

Yun Xi knew that she couldn't hide it anymore, so she said something about what happened before.

Knowing that his daughter had suffered so much, Jing Bianhou turned around and was about to return to Beijing.Yun Xi hurriedly stopped him.

"Xi'er, it's all Daddy's fault. Daddy has hurt you. If it wasn't for venting anger on Daddy, the Queen Mother wouldn't take it out on you. Don't worry, Daddy will never let her go. From now on Daddy will Fully support that kid Xiao Muyun!"

"Daddy has worked so hard outside for so many years, just to give you a peaceful and peaceful life. Now that even your safety cannot be guaranteed, how can Daddy hold a high position and talk about defending the family and the country? It was Daddy who thought about it before, I always thought that the emperor is just a little cowardly, but he still has the ability, now Dad finally figured it out."

"I have been a soldier all my life, how many things I have done for him, how many times I have been born and died! But when I was in crisis, he knew that Marquis Wu was the Queen Mother's man, so he asked him to replace me. Doesn't he know that once I lose the military power What's the end? Even if Lin Chong is to replace me, it can save my life. How could he not know about my poisoning? It's just that he himself is too incompetent. One step of resistance, how can such an emperor deserve me to continue to follow!"

Yun Xi didn't expect that because of such an incident, Marquis Jingbian would say such a thing. Obviously, these words had been in his heart for a long time, and now that he said them, he was telling everyone his determination.

As soon as Xiao Muyun entered the courtyard, he was quite surprised when he heard what Jingbianhou said. He never thought that Jingbianhou would show support for him at this time.Seeing Yun Xi's smiling face, he strode in.

Xiao Muyun stood in front of Jingbianhou with a serious expression, and said, "Master Hou, I, Xiao Muyun, swear to you that I will never let you down in this life, and if you go back on your word, you will be struck by lightning!"

"If your kid betrays my daughter in the future, no matter how high your status is, I will kill you even with my last breath!"

This was an agreement between the two men, at this moment Jing Bianhou finally made a clear statement on their matter.

……

These days, Shangguan Bailin is busy restoring Yuezhou's economy, but Yunxi has been looking for her for several days but has not met her.

These days, He Yuan has been by her side, watching her sister deal with all kinds of troublesome things calmly, one after another clever tricks made him even more admired.Before my sister went back, my father praised her every day. He always thought that it was because my father missed my sister. Now he believes that my sister is really outstanding.

Hongyi and Yaochenzi followed Uncle Jiang every day, and they didn't know what they were busy with.

Xiao Muyun also disappeared all day, and now Yunxi became the most idle person.She misses the girls at home a little bit, and there will always be laughter when they are around.It's been a few months since Yingyue and Chunxiao were sent out. I don't know how they are doing in Jiangnan. They should be terrified knowing that something happened to them.

With nothing else to do, Yun Xi planned to go wandering around the city of Yuezhou, maybe he could find something interesting.As usual, Yun Xi wore a veiled hat and went out with Tsing Yi behind him.

While wandering around, Yunxi found some interesting people.Apparently Tsing Yi also noticed it, she made a gesture quietly and several hidden guards followed.

Yun Xi walked into a remote alley with Tsing Yi, and then said with a smile: "I've followed you all the way, don't you plan to come out and meet?"

"Master Jiahui is really sharp!" A man in gray came out from the other side of the alley.

Tsing Yi immediately stopped in front of Yun Xi.And Yun Xi looked at the person with wide eyes, and tears flowed from her veiled hat.

"Don't worry, if I want to do something to the princess, I won't let you find out my whereabouts! I just came here today to talk to the princess about something."

Yun Xi wiped away her tears, suppressed the joy in her heart, and said, "Since this is the case, why don't we change places? I know there is a restaurant not far ahead, and the food is pretty good."

The man froze for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Yun Xi led him directly upstairs to the private room, where Yun Xi took off her veiled hat, revealing the scar on her face, Yun Xi smiled as if she didn't care, and ordered Tsing Yi to order some food.

The two sat there without anyone speaking first, drinking tea each.

Yun Xi was quietly looking at him, his brother was getting old and thin, I don't know how he escaped from that fire, he must have suffered a lot in these years.

After Xiao Er brought the food, the man was a little dazed, how could it be such a coincidence, this is what he likes to eat, and there was a trace of doubt in Yunxi's eyes.

As if Yun Xi didn't see it, she started eating on her own.

Seeing this, the man sneered, "Did Princess Jiahui not eat in the mansion?"

"Sir, why don't you eat it? The food here is delicious. I haven't eaten this kind of taste for many years, and I miss it."

Seeing that the vigilance in his elder brother's eyes became more intense, Yun Xi felt sore, sighed, and said, "Didn't Mr. have something to discuss with me? Why don't you talk about it now."

"Princess, I did bring a business today."

Yun Xi put down the chopsticks in her hand, leaned back, and said lazily, "Sir, please speak directly!"

When the man saw Yun Xi's sitting posture, a flash of memory flashed in his eyes, and then a trace of sadness appeared.

"The big scene at the gate of the city that day was the work of the princess. The princess should know some things, so I will be blunt. Wuhou is in the hands of the princess?"

Yun Xi smiled and said, "So what if it is true or not?"

"You don't need to hide it from me, the princess. I accidentally discovered that many nobles have come to Yuezhou City recently. Guess who I saw? If the emperor knows that Xiao Shizi, who has always shown himself as a dandy, has also participated in the affairs of Yuezhou. , What do you think he will think? What will the Queen Mother think?"

Yun Xi didn't expect her brother to threaten her, but now is not a good time to reveal her identity.

"Really? What does this have to do with me?"

The man laughed loudly, and said: "Although the princess announced that the old disease had relapsed in the capital, I know that the princess disappeared after being hunted down. At that time, there were many abnormalities in the Xuanwang Mansion. I knew that the princess had an accident. If it wasn’t from Prince Xuan’s Mansion, then they must be doing it to help you. Now that you’re here, and Prince Xiao is here, doesn’t that explain the problem?”

Yun Xi finished eating a golden silk roll, wiped her hands again, and said, "How did you know I'm here?"

"I noticed the princess when I was in the capital, and naturally I also know the people around the princess. Your two maids never leave. They are both here now, and they are by your side. Are you Who could Princess Jiahui be?"

"What can I do here? Why do you think I will hand over Marquis Wu? He is collaborating with the enemy and treason. As long as he is brought back to Beijing, he will surely die."
