Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain
Chapter 306 Know everything
Since Xiao Huan held a grudge, he would definitely not forget to add Xiao Yan's name to his revenge list.
"Of course he is afraid, but he is more worried that my growing strength will threaten his throne." Xiao Zhan sneered:
"After all, Xiao Huan is Xiao Yan's biological son. He sent Nan Jingxing to pick him up in a high-profile manner so that the world would see that Xiao Huan was back. If Xiao Huan attacked him at this time, he would be convicted of treason and patricide.
By then, getting rid of him will be justified. Xiao Huan is not stupid. He knows the interests involved. So even if he hates Xiao Yan, he will not take action at this critical moment. But his anger must have an outlet, and I am the most suitable target. "
"Xiao Yan wants to use Xiao Huan to curb your power in order to maintain the balance of Beiling."
Jiang Xue took over his words and analyzed carefully: "But someone like Xiao Huan will never stop at just curbing your power. It is more likely that he will take your life."
"If this is true, Xiao Yan will be happy to see it happen. He originally planned to get rid of me. Through Xiao Huan, he can achieve his goal and avoid bloodshed. Why not do it?"
Xiao Zhan said, "There are only a few people in Beiling who know my background. On the surface, I am still Xiao Yan's son. If Xiao Huan really kills me, Xiao Yan will definitely put him in the ice prison again in the name of hurting his brother. Killing with a borrowed knife and destroying the bridge after crossing the river are his usual methods."
From the death of his father and elder brother, to the death of Emperor Fengxun of Qian State, he remembered it all vividly and remembered it all in his heart.
"It seems that we must plan carefully how to deal with His Royal Highness Prince Huan." Jiang Xue frowned with a serious expression.
She would rather take the initiative than be the passive target.
"No hurry." Xiao Zhan said, "To deal with a poisonous snake, you have to wait for it to come out of its hole first. Otherwise, if you alarm it, it will be bad."
"That's true." Jiang Xue nodded: "Then let's wait and see how this snake will act."
A month has passed since Xiao Huan returned to Yujing. During this month, Yujing City seemed calm on the surface, so calm that it made people feel uneasy.
“The calm before the storm makes people uneasy.”
On this day, Xiao Yun took time out to come to Prince Gong's Mansion. While reporting the latest situation in the palace to Xiao Zhan, he also came to find Jiang Xue to prescribe medicine for Jiang Chongyi.
"Your Highness Prince An is so emotional. Did something happen in the palace again?"
Jiang Xue handed him the prepared medicine and asked about Jiang Chongyi's condition. She learned that she had been depressed since her miscarriage. Although she took a lot of tonics, the effect was not obvious. So Jiang Xue specially gave Xiao Yun some small gadgets that could make women happy to express her love.
"It's all because of my seventh brother's return to the palace." Xiao Yun took Jiang Xue's things and bowed gratefully.
He continued, "After returning from the ice prison, the Seventh Brother has become even more sinister and terrifying. These days, he often goes to Fengming Palace, and every time he comes out, I can hear the Queen roaring. Once the Queen is unhappy, how can the harem be peaceful.
Moreover, the Seventh Prince was a very strange person. Even if he did nothing, just standing there made people feel uneasy.
What's worse is that every time he entered the palace, a palace maid would go missing. In just one month, more than a dozen palace maids had disappeared.
Even if the emperor knew, he didn't care and let him do whatever he wanted. And I heard that he has been very close to Jun Li recently. When I left the palace just now, I saw them arm in arm. I don't know what they are plotting. "
Jun Li and Xiao Huan...
Jiang Xue and Xiao Zhan exchanged a meaningful look.
It seems that Jun Li is really eager to expand his power.
Xiao Huan had only been in the palace for a month, but he had already hooked up with Jun Li so quickly.
"Eighth brother, you can enter and exit the palace easily, so please keep an eye on Xiao Huan. If he makes any suspicious moves, please notify me immediately."
After all, Xiao Yun has his mother, Jiang Chongyi, in the palace, so his reasons for entering and leaving the harem are much more sufficient than Xiao Zhan's.
"Fourth brother, what are you talking about? As long as you give the order, even if it means mountains of swords and seas of fire, Eighth Brother will rush for you."
Xiao Yun patted his chest and promised.
He and Xiao Zhan grew up together, supporting and caring for each other. Although they were not born of the same mother, their brotherly love was even deeper than that of real brothers! Ever since Xiao Zhan decided to fight for the throne, Xiao Yun was determined to follow him to the death and never betray him.
Faced with his brother's loyalty, Xiao Zhan smiled with relief, raised his teacup and clinked it with tea to express his gratitude.
"By the way, didn't Father ask Feng Bing to investigate the person who caused Jiang Chongyi's miscarriage? How is the investigation going?"
It has been more than a month since Jiang Chongyi had a miscarriage. Xiao Zhan remembered that Xiao Yan only gave Feng Bing three days to check. This deadline has long passed, but there has been no news, which made him feel very strange.
"When the deadline came, Feng Bing dragged a corpse to report, saying it was the remnants of the Shuoyue Sect lurking in the palace. This made my father so angry that he once again ordered the hunt for the Shuoyue Sect and to completely eliminate all those who were related to the Shuoyue Sect in Yujing City."
Xiao Yun replied.
"Is there any evidence that the body is really from the Shuoyue Sect?"
She had previously taken great pains to use Prajna Square to divert Emperor Bei Ling's attention from Shuoyue Sect, but now Feng Bing had drawn his attention back.
If Nangong Yue knew this, she would probably be furious.
Fortunately, she arranged in advance for Nangong Yue to follow Prajna to Qian Kingdom, otherwise he would be unable to escape now.
"The corpse brought by Feng Bing had the Shuoyue Sect's hidden weapons on it. The corpse was completely unrecognizable and it is impossible to identify who it was. We can only identify it based on these personal belongings." Xiao Yun explained.
"Feng Bing has always been guarding the palace gates. He should have never fought with a martial arts sect like the Shuoyue Sect. How did he know that it was a hidden weapon of the Shuoyue Sect?"
Jiang Xue was puzzled. The Weiwei was responsible for guarding the palace gates and was not allowed to leave the palace without the emperor's order. Since she came to Beiling as a hostage, she had never seen the emperor of Beiling send the Weiwei out of Yujing.
"This..." Jiang Xue's question made Xiao Yun realize that something might be wrong. He lowered his head and thought for a while, then answered:
"I remember that before Feng Bing reported, when I came out of my mother's palace, I seemed to see Feng Bing in contact with the attendants around Jun Li. At that time, I thought it was just some trivial matters that Jun Li entrusted to the attendants, so I didn't think much about it. Now that I think about it, could it be related to this matter?"
Jun Li is truly a mysterious person.
Xiao Yun has followed Xiao Zhan for so long and has witnessed some of his methods.
Although she is in the deep palace, she is well aware of the forces in the world.
A year ago, he almost planted an insider into Linglong Pavilion.
Fortunately, my fourth brother discovered it in time and got rid of that person. Otherwise, once the true identity of Master Xuanji was exposed, even if my fourth brother did not die, his life would be cut half by our father.
