Shengjing and the palace became completely lively because of the arrival of the Fuso delegation.

Jiang Xuening went out early to check the accounts and came back late, as well as drawing attention to the Xiao family's movements.

That night, Jiang Xuening, who had been tired for a long day, was making tea by the stove in the yard. Qinghe stewed a cup of rock sugar pear for her, while Caiyue roasted chestnuts for her.

The atmosphere was just right, but suddenly there was the sound of fighting in the darkness. I saw a dark red figure flashing past the wall.

The atmosphere became tense instantly. Jiang Xuening looked back at the wall. The visitor was quickly forced out by Wu Sa.

"It's all a misunderstanding. Don't be so cruel, Princess."

Jiang Xuening signaled Wu Sa to stop, and Nangong Mo jumped down from the wall with a pair of bright red and phoenix eyes.

"It's really beautiful. It's not worth me coming to peek at her in the middle of the night."

"Tea on Qinghe." Jiang Xuening was also very interested in him. "Fourth prince, please take a seat."

He doesn't panic when things change, and the people around him are very strong. Nangong Mo finally put away his cynicism and looked at her seriously.

"The princess is different from what I thought."

He thought that what he came to see this time would be a standard lady, or a poor little girl who was bullied by her stepmother. It turned out to be the famous female King of Hell.

Jiang Xuening was half lying on the chair, gently shaking the fan in her hand, "The fourth prince is just like the rumors."

He acts unruly and loves freedom, so he is a very difficult person to deal with.

Nangong Mo turned around in a circle and showed her his figure, "What do you think of me, princess?"

"Romantic and suave, jade trees stand in the wind."

"Hahahaha, I also think you are good." Nangong Mofeng's eyes flashed with ridicule, "It seems that the princess and I are a perfect match."

Jiang Xuening took a sip of tea and felt that this sentence was not right. Rumors about them were flying all over the place, and she didn't believe he didn't hear them.

"Miss Shangguan should be sad to hear this."

Nangong Mo said coolly, "Don't he like that sick man Shen Zhaoyan? I never force others to do anything."

Jiang Xuening's eyes quickly grasped the key to the problem.

"Someone said something to you?"

"Yes." Nangong Mo said with a half-smile, "Xiao Linfeng, the eldest son of the Xiao family who picked me up on the way to Beijing, hinted yesterday that I would like to marry the princess."

Her expression changed slightly, and she unconsciously clenched the fan in her hand.

Xiao Linfeng... this name was not unfamiliar to her at all. She once called her eldest and second brothers brothers, and they seemed to love her like a younger sister.

Later he became He Lianxuan's right-hand man. It can be said that he was the one who contributed to the downfall of the Gu family.

The real person behind the scenes of the Xiao family was this eldest son who was named King of Wei at a young age and was deeply favored by the emperor.

Even Xiao Shujin has to rely on him. This is the heart and soul of the Xiao family.

She has not seen him since she returned to Beijing because he was ordered to patrol eastward and pick up the Fuso mission at the border and escort them back to Beijing.

From wanting Shangguan Mingzhu to marry her, the trend changed too quickly, and it was Xiao Linfeng who hinted at it, so there was definitely a big hole.

"The fourth prince has a good relationship with Xiao Linfeng?"

"My third brother has an extraordinary relationship with him, and my sixth sister has always been attracted to him."

"This is my first mission to Xiling. My third brother was responsible for all matters here before."

In just a few sentences, a lot of information is revealed. Jiang Xuening also instantly spied Xiao Linfeng's thoughts.

Marrying her to Fusang would, in a sense, free her up. In a completely unfamiliar country, you can use your own connections to get rid of her before she establishes a foothold.

The most important thing is not to let her stay here and affect He Lianxuan's mood.

Jiang Xuening didn't think Nangong Mo would be an obedient person, "If he asks you to ask for marriage, will you marry him?"

Nangong Mo chuckled lightly, "He promised me a lot of profit, and I am used to being dissolute and have never cared about the love between my children. In fact, under normal circumstances, I would ask for marriage."

"It's just an exotic princess. If you don't like her after you get married, just keep her. If she is weak or dies in some accident, it doesn't matter."

"Profit is the most important thing. What he gave me is indeed what I want."

Jiang Xuening sneered. Sure enough, Xiao Linfeng was still the same Xiao Linfeng who liked to use all kinds of tricks and knew how to manipulate people's hearts.

"So, what made the prince give up the benefits at his fingertips this time."

Xiao Linfeng said to Qinghe, "I don't like tea, please give me a pot of wine."

He looked at Jiang Xuening's eyebrows and said, "Just because of your face, even if you dare to marry, I will not dare to marry you. Otherwise, I am afraid that someone will chase me and chop me down, and I will be plotted against you."

Jiang Xuening's heartbeat quickened, and the hand holding the fan trembled, "Is he... okay?"

Qing He brought the wine, Nangong Mo poured a glass, raised his head and drank it all, a trace of tenderness flashed in his eyes.

"It's fine on the outside, but it's actually rotten on the inside."

"I would be very happy if I saw your face."

She felt sour and bitter in her heart. They were twins, dragon and phoenix, and no one in the world was closer and understood each other better than them.

The stars and the moon have always been in a relationship of protecting and shining on each other.

Nangong Mo's words unknowingly changed, "Every time the moon is full, he always can't sleep, and he stands in the yard looking at the moon all night long."

"He said that the twins were connected by blood and had their own special way of sensing. He could feel that Gu Mingyue was not dead."

Jiang Xuening lowered her eyes to hide her reddish eyes, "I feel relieved that he is still alive."

"I am coming to Xiling this time because of you."

Over the years, their people have been paying close attention to the news here, and a Qingzhou princess turned out to be born, and she looked very much like that person.

If he hadn't tried so hard to stop him, Gu Xingchen would have entered Xiling long ago. He was really afraid that when he came and saw this face, he would be unable to walk and would never return to Fuso. So let’s find out for ourselves first.

"Speaking of which, you can count him as his cousin. What do you think of the news that he is still alive?"

Of course Jiang Xuening wanted to see him right away, but due to various considerations, this was impossible. She suppressed the excitement in her heart and spoke as calmly as possible, "Now is not a good time to meet. I am satisfied knowing that he is still alive and well."

Nangong Mo breathed a sigh of relief, "I am with him in Fusang, so no one dares to touch him. But it will be different once we step into Xiling."

In order to survive these years, in order not to alert others. Gu Xingchen has never set foot in Xiling, and has almost erased all traces of the past.

"He is now a feared and feared Da Sikong, but his ideas are a bit dangerous."

He always wanted to kill the Dog Emperor back to Xilinga, which made him very worried. How can the emperor be so easy to kill?

"If your cousin is alive and well, my mission will be completed."

Nangong Mo climbed over the wall and walked back and forth like the wind, for fear that she would ask another question.

Jiang Xuening is not in a hurry. The mission will not leave for more than a month and a half. There is plenty of opportunity and time.
