Jiang Xuening settled down in Weiyang Palace with peace of mind. Xiao Shujin was dying, and the emperor was busy appeasing the courtiers and suppressing the rumors.

She was actually very idle, and she was generous with her money, so all kinds of news kept coming to her ears.

For example, the "Crow's Trouble" purged the palace and arrested many people. In the end, it was found that the eunuch and the palace servants who had hatred for the deposed queen teamed up to set up the scheme.

The few people who were traced all committed suicide, and the clues were lost.

There was no master in the harem, so the virtuous concubine was in charge, and the noble concubine assisted.

When Zhongqiu was ordered to bring her something, she was reading in the study.

"Princess, this is a special reward from Your Majesty."

Jiang Xuening glanced at the dazzling array of jewelry, but she didn't show any joy. She stood up and walked to the window and opened it, "I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"If you have anything to do, Princess, just ask me."

"I heard that Shangguan Wan is seriously ill. I had some friendship with her when I was in Qingzhou."

Zhongqiu's eyes were slightly stunned, and he said calmly, "Because she and the abandoned queen didn't get along, I once suspected her after the accident, but she was already ill at that time, and no problems were found."

Jiang Xuening lowered her eyes, "Can Miss Zhong do me a favor?"

This was the first time Jiang Xuening spoke to each other, and Zhongqiu smelled an unusual smell.

"What does the magistrate want me to do?"

"While Shangguan Wan is seriously ill, let her leave the palace."

Zhongqiu's heart turned over and over again. Why did Shangguan Wan go to Qingzhou in those three years? Outsiders didn't know it, but she knew it.

It was precisely because Jiang Xuening came back alive that Xiao Shujin became dissatisfied with Shangguan Wan, and the relationship between the two gradually became tense.

Shangguan Wan was born in the Shangguan family. Although she was a concubine, she was also Xiao Shujin's cousin.

It is really thought-provoking that Jiang Xuening suddenly made this request at this juncture.

Zhongqiu was a smart person and quickly figured out the connection. The look in her eyes was complicated.

There have been rumors that she came here for the Gu family.

Now Zhongqiu can be sure that the woman in front of Gu Jiaqiu remembers.

She didn't ask or say anything, she just said calmly, "The palace has to let a group of people out. Since the Shangguan female officer is seriously ill, it is naturally not suitable for her to stay in the palace."

"I'm leaving the capital in two days. Does the princess need my help to take something out?"

"Thank you, Ms. Zhong. I won't use it for the time being."

The note she asked for has been taken out of the palace. She lit a stick of incense last night, and a bird landed on the window in the middle of the night. Of course it was Feng'er.

Feng'er is smart and understands human nature. He followed her from a distance when she entered the palace. Naturally, he was able to find Weiyang Palace and remember the way back.

In Qingzhou Prince's Mansion, Li Baiyu and others gathered in the meeting room. Staring at the note on the table, there was only one sentence on the note.

"Gusu Xiao Shi'an, kill quickly!"

Bai Yu touched his chin, "Since the surname is Xiao, it has something to do with the Xiao family."

Wu Jin, "A month ago, the princess asked me to check on this person. I have already sent people to Gusu and found out the clues."

After Jiang Xuening read the news about Gusu, she just ordered to continue watching and made no next move.

Jiang Li said, "She was trapped in the palace, but she asked Su to kill this person. I can only say that this person's identity is extraordinary."

"I'll go there in person. It will take at least half a month to go back and forth." Wu Jin said immediately.

Jiang Li nodded, and Wu Jin set off that day, heading south to Gusu.

In the Zhennan Palace, Shen Zhaoyan frowned as he read the news coming from the palace.

Lu Zhengliu, the son of the Lu family who had always had a good relationship with him, joked from the side, "Tsk, tsk, the emperor is trying to play the role of a substitute lover, and he is also very evil."

"Someone's princess is going to die."

Shen Zhaoyan threw a book at his face angrily, "Speak humanly."

Lu Zhengliu leaned back on the chair, still looking out of shape, "What is so good about that girl from the Jiang family that she fascinated you all."

"How come our iron tree, which has not bloomed for ten thousand years, blooms so big once it blooms that it actually competes with the emperor for women."

Shen Zhaoyan looked at the things on the table with a heavy gaze, "He has always wanted it, hasn't he? Then give it to him."

"If you trade this for a woman, the Duke of Zhen will jump out of the coffin and beat you to death."

A flash of sarcasm flashed in his eyes, "I've been tired over the years. It's not a waste to use this military talisman here."

He has always been sensitive to the situation, so retreating from the rapids may not be a bad thing. It would be better if he could get that person out of the palace safely.

Lu Zhengliu saw that he had made up his mind and didn't say anything more. He just said, "How can the emperor let go of a woman he likes so easily?"

Shen Zhaoyan said, "I will go there personally to ask Princess Protector to come out."

This Princess Protector is the aunt of He Lianxuan and the aunt of the late emperor. Back then, he led troops to fight and went into battle to kill the enemy. He is deeply loved by the people and has an extraordinary status in Xiling.

Even He Lianxuan, in front of the Princess Protector, must respect her as an elder.

It's just that Princess Changhuguo is already old and has been out of Shengjing for many years, and rarely cares about royal affairs.

His mother-in-law, Zu An, was also a woman who could not be compared to men, and her friendship with this princess who protected the country was formed by fighting side by side on the battlefield.

Before his death, his grandmother told him, "If you encounter unsolvable difficulties in the future, you can ask the Princess Protector for help."

The Palace of Zhennan has been suppressed for many years and has been struggling. He has never spoken to the Princess Protector.

But this time was different, he wanted her. I want to give her freedom but also want to see how high she can fly.

This is his despicable thought. He is a dying person and should not have such thoughts. But after meeting her, he slowly became greedy.

I don’t know where the love comes from, but the love is deep.

Lu Zhengliu looked more serious and said, "That's fine. It's quite boring for you to live like an emotionless iron tree all day long. As long as you have what you want."

If you have desires and are nostalgic for this world, you can try your best to live.

He has always felt that his life was too rational and too painful, but now that he occasionally loses control, it is more humane.

"This Miss Jiang is also capable."

Lu Zhengliu was extremely curious. He had just returned from the north and had never seen the rumored Miss Jiang.

Bai Shu frowned and said, "Your health is not good and you shouldn't run around."

"Then take the medicine a little harder, and I'll set off tomorrow to ask Princess Protector to come out."

"Hmph, you are looking for death."

There was a smile in Shen Zhaoyan's eyes, "I don't want to die, I have to live well."

Live well and marry someone.

Bai Shu was dissatisfied and went to prepare the medicine, and Shen Zhaoyan went to the ancestral grave in Zhennan Prince's Mansion.

He said in front of the grave, "Father, Queen, Mother and Concubine, I have met someone I want to protect. I wish you good luck in protecting me this time."

He raised his eyes and glanced at this large area of ​​graves, and said softly, "Countless people in the Shen family have sacrificed their lives for this mountain and river. I will not let Xiling down or let anyone down."

He clenched the weapon talisman in his hand and let him end it all.

Since the royal family can no longer tolerate the Zhennan Palace, he will do as they wish.

The fate of generations of Zhennan Prince's men wrapped in horse leather and dying on the battlefield must end with him.
