Murong Xiao also recognized the cyan figure. It was Xie Chengfeng, a Taoist priest from Qingcheng Mountain who had flashed past the teahouse in the morning.

I thought I would put some effort into finding him, but I didn't expect to see him here by accident.

Murong Xiao was shocked and hurriedly told Beiyuan: "Watch him and don't let him slip away again."

Now that Xie Chengfeng had appeared, he had no intention of slipping away again and rode his horse calmly towards this side.

Chu Zhao got out of the carriage, jumped down with his hand holding the hammer, and called him first: "Taoist Master Chengfeng, what a coincidence, why are you here in the capital?"

"..." Murong Xiao looked back at her, his eyes burning, trying to see some trace of disguise on her face, "Don't you know, Princess, that he is in the capital?"

"I don't know." Chu Zhao asked back, "What do you mean, my lord? Did you know that Master Chengfeng was coming to the capital?"

Murong Xiao couldn't tell whether she was lying or not, so he said with a straight face, "I don't know either."

He Yunjie flew down from the roof of the car and stood side by side with Chu Zhao. He looked at the young Taoist priest riding his horse and asked in a low voice: "Is this Taoist priest an old friend of the two of you?"

"We can't call him an old friend. He just went to the palace to drive away evil spirits." Chu Zhao said.

He Yunjie raised his eyebrows slightly, a little incredulous: "I didn't expect you two to believe this."

"Mainly because of the prince's letter, he almost had people burn me to death with the three-flavored real fire." Chu Zhao looked at Murong Xiao and teased.

Murong Xiao looked slightly embarrassed, put his fist on his lips and cleared his throat.

Fortunately, Xie Chengfeng had already arrived and relieved his embarrassment.

"Your Majesty, Princess, long time no see. I'm so polite."

Xie Chengfeng turned over and dismounted, raised his palms and bowed to the two of them. His brows were sparse and his eyes were clear. He was still as handsome and handsome as he was when he first met them.

"When did the Taoist Master come to the capital?" Chu Zhao returned the courtesy and asked.

Xie Chengfeng looked at her, then at Murong Xiao, and spoke with a hint of a smile: "Pin Dao has been in the capital for a few months. The last time he met the prince, the prince was looking for the princess everywhere, and he wrongly accused Pindao of abducting her. princess."

"Is there such a thing?" He Yunjie said in surprise from the side.

Chu Zhao pursed his lips and smiled but said nothing.

He Yunjie wanted to ask again, but Murong Xiao's face turned dark: "Is Mr. Xiao Ge very interested in the filial piety of the family?"

"I don't care about other people's family, but I really want to hear about the prince's family." He Yunjie said leisurely.

Murong Xiao was speechless and simply ignored him, saying to Xie Chengfeng: "Since we met here, Taoist Master, please follow me to the palace to recognize him!"

Xie Chengfeng pondered for a while, nodded and said: "The prince is so kind, but I am so respectful, so it is better to obey your orders, so go to the house and ask for a bowl of water!"

Chu Zhao knew in his heart that Murong Xiao was very suspicious, and if Xie Chengfeng could not shirk him, it would only make him more suspicious, so he did not stop him at the moment.

The team set off again, and after about a cup of tea, they arrived at Jingnan Palace.

Qi Fengshan and Zhang Xingzhou, who had already received the news, had been waiting at the gate for a long time.

Seeing Murong Xiao coming over, Qi Fengshan was like an old mother reunited with her child after a long separation, tears of joy filled her eyes.

"Your Majesty, I finally see you. Thank God, Your Majesty arrived in the capital safely. I can finally let go of the worries I have been worrying about for several months."

Murong Xiao was also very excited. He bent down to help him up and asked with concern: "Sir, your health is not bad. Why didn't you go outside the city to greet me today?"

Qi Fengshan glanced at He Yunjie and sighed: "Thanks to the care of Mr. Xiaoge, I sent guards to protect the safety of the ministers and prevent them from going out casually. If someone hadn't come to deliver the message just now, I wouldn't have known that the prince had entered the capital. "

Murong Xiao immediately lowered his face and asked He Yunjie: "What do you mean, Mr. Xiao Ge? The king and the princess traveled all the way to Beijing to treat the Queen Mother, but you guarded the king's people like thieves. Who did you give them to?" Will?"

He Yunjie didn't expect that the old fox would kill him first when they met.

Of course, he couldn't say that he was following the Queen Mother's will, let alone the emperor's will. After a moment of silence, he calmly put the responsibility on his own father.

"It's the elder's wish. I'm just following orders. If the prince is dissatisfied, he can ask the elder tomorrow."

"..."

Murong Xiao didn't expect that this guy would even trick his own father. He looked at Qi Fengshan and both of them were speechless.

Chu Zhao ignored their confrontation and looked at the palace in front of him, which had gone through many vicissitudes and still had extraordinary majesty, with a lot of emotions in his heart.

After 200 years, in the blink of an eye, all the old friends are gone, and only these bricks and tiles remain as distant memories.

Who could have thought that one day she would bring Murong Qingchuan's descendants back to this mansion that she personally gave her?

She has awarded a total of five mansions of the same size. She doesn't know what the situation of the other ones is now.

"Princess!" Zhang Xingzhou stepped forward to call her and asked with concern, "Princess, have you gotten used to living in the palace these days?"

"It's not bad." Chu Zhao came back to his senses and looked at him with a smile, "What about you, are you used to living in the palace?"

Zhang Xingzhou looked at her smile with mixed feelings in his heart, and he was full of words. Finally, he just said lightly: "The general is just a rough guy. It's the same everywhere. As long as the princess is safe, that's all."

"Don't worry about me, and don't be depressed." Chu Zhao patted him on the shoulder, "It won't last long, trust me."

"Okay, I understand." Zhang Xingzhou felt the force on his shoulders. His depressed mood disappeared instantly, and his whole body was filled with strength again. Even his broken eyebrows became energetic.

Xie Chengfeng silently watched the interaction between the two, recalling Zhang Xingzhou's fierce treatment of Chu Zhao at the Laihong Inn that day. He couldn't believe that this was the same person.

Ah Zhao is really capable. As long as she wants to, there is no one she can't conquer.

He raised his hands and recited "Infinite Heavenly Lord" and looked at Zhang Xingzhou with a smile: "Zhang Zhuangshi, do you still remember Pindao?"

Zhang Xingzhou had recognized him a long time ago, but because Murong Xiao was there and he didn't know how they met, he resisted asking. When he saw him taking the initiative to greet him, he clasped his fists and said, "Remember, you are Master Chengfeng."

Chu Zhao couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw the two of them pretending to be presentable, so he said seriously: "Taoist Master, Zhang Xingzhou has now become a general under the prince's command. You are going to call him General Zhang."

"Really?" Xie Chengfeng hurriedly congratulated him, "I congratulate the general on finding a good master and embarking on the right path. Given time, he will be able to follow the prince and make great achievements, be granted the title of marquis and become a general, and leave his name in history."

While Murong Xiao was looking for trouble with He Yunjie, he also kept an eye on Chu Zhao. When he saw that she was talking animatedly to the two of them, like old friends reunited after a long separation, their eyebrows twisted into knots.

He Yunjie also noticed the movement over there, his eyes roamed over a few people, and he asked intentionally or unintentionally: "Your Majesty, why do I think the princess is closer to those two people than to you?"

Murong Xiao immediately lowered his face and glanced sideways at him: "Is Xiaoge always sowing discord? Does it have anything to do with you whether the princess is close to me or not?"

"It doesn't matter." He Yunjie lowered his eyes and smiled, "I just want to remind the prince that it is less than half an hour before the princess returns to the palace. When the time comes, I will take the princess away."

"..."

Murong Xiao gritted his teeth, wanting to punch that calm face to see if he was still in the mood to be weird here.

Chu Zhao is obviously his princess, but she wants to be taken around by her grandson. Why?

Why is he?
