Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

Xiao Zhan looked at the tall buildings in the distance, thought for a moment and said:

"The clouds and mists are lingering, supporting the sky. Looking up at the starry sky, reaching out to pick the stars. I hope that this child can be like that tall building, with talents that surpass the sky and the ability to stand out from the crowd.

Then, let's call him Chengyu, with the courtesy name Wangshu."

This name carries the emperor's deep expectations. Xiao Gui and Xie Linyuan chewed it over and over in their hearts, filled with joy.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the name!"

Xie Linyuan knelt down on behalf of the child, expressing gratitude for Xiao Zhan's grace.

"What do you think of this name? I am very satisfied. Since everyone agrees, let's choose a good day to register it at the Zongzhengfu."

After discussing the child's name, the emperor knew that there were still many things waiting for them to deal with.

Jiang Xue stared at the pink baby in the cradle and teased him gently. Suddenly, a complex emotion surged in her heart, as if she saw her daughter far away through this little life, and her mood became a little heavy.

"Fourth sister-in-law?"

Seeing her standing there in a daze, Xiao Gui asked gently, "Are you tired?"

"fine."

Jiang Xue smiled slightly and gently handed the child back to Xiao Gui.

Perhaps because he was hungry, the child soon started crying in his mother's arms. Xiao Gui smiled apologetically, then took the child back to the room to take care of him.

Jiang Xue decided to go out for a walk alone while her husband Xiao Zhan was discussing state affairs with Xie Linyuan.

As soon as I walked out of the house, a familiar figure flashed before my eyes - wasn't that Nangong Yue?

Jiang Xue rubbed her eyes and confirmed that the back figure really looked like Nangong Yue. She saw that person shopping in the medicine shop, seemingly looking for some medicinal materials.

Thinking of Yu Prajna's past pain and her still-unhealed voice, Jiang Xue immediately wanted to step forward and question Nangong Yue. But when she rushed into the medicine shop, a group of customers blocked her view.

"Princess, be careful."

Fu Dong, the personal maid, tried hard to protect her and finally squeezed out of the crowd, but found that Nangong Yue had disappeared.

"Girl, if you're not buying medicine, please move aside and don't delay business." An aunt said dissatisfiedly.

Jiang Xue then noticed that the pharmacy was having a promotion for beauty and skin care pills, no wonder there were so many people. She apologized to the aunt and took Fu Dong away.

After looking around but still unable to see Nangong Yue, Jiang Xue had no choice but to ask Fu Dong to go to Tingfeng Tower to find her, while she returned to Xie Mansion.

On the roof of the drugstore, Nangong Yue watched all this silently, and then her figure flashed and disappeared.

"Jiang Xue, you don't look well. What happened?" Xiao Zhan asked with concern.

“Yun Che, I just saw Nangong Yue.” Jiang Xue replied, with a hint of confusion and puzzlement in her voice.

Jiang Xue told Xiao Zhan what happened in the pharmacy. After listening, Xiao Zhan pondered for a while and then asked:

"If that person is really Nangong Yue, since he has returned to Yujing City, why doesn't he ask you to return the token of Shuoyue Gate?"

When they left Qian Kingdom, Xiao Zhan and Yu Prajna specifically handed over the management rights of Shuoyue Gate to Jiang Xue, and left behind a token symbolizing the power of the alliance leader.

Logically speaking, if Nangong Yue came back, as the founder of Shuoyue Sect, his first thing should be to find her and get the token back.

"This is also what I am confused about." Jiang Xue replied.

For Nangong Yue, Shuoyuemen was one of his most concerned things, second only to Yu Prajna. Now that he knew she was in Beiling, he didn't come to ask for the recall order, which was indeed puzzling.

"Don't worry, Tingfeng Tower has already started investigating the matter and there will be results soon."

Xiao Zhan comforted him. There is a reason behind any unusual phenomenon. As long as the reason is found, all problems will be solved.

In order to divert attention, Jiang Xue asked about the conversation between Xiao Zhan and Xie Linyuan.

"You two talked for a long time today. What did you talk about?"

"We have found some clues about Feng Qin's identity."

Xiao Zhan smiled mysteriously: "I think you will be interested."

"No such person?"

Jiang Xue frowned and said, "According to the report from Linglong Pavilion, Feng Qin does not seem to exist in the official records, and the Zongzhengfu does not have her registration information."

"Illegitimate daughters are usually not recognized by the family and will not appear in the clan ancestral hall, so it is normal that they are not included in the official records."

Xiao Zhan explained, and handed Jiang Xue another piece of information. This document recorded the time when Feng Qin arrived in Yujing City, as well as some recent activities of Prajna Square.

After careful research, Jiang Xue discovered that the day Feng Qin appeared was exactly the same day that the members of Prajna Square returned to Yujing City.

In addition, spies reported that people from Prajnafang were often seen entering and leaving Feng Mansion at night in recent days.

"The Feng family has recently recruited a lot of new servants, and I have arranged for some people to blend in. Guess what they found?"

Xiao Zhan took out an exquisite porcelain bottle from his sleeve and placed it on the table. It was engraved with typical Qian Kingdom patterns.

"Qu Shang is also in the Feng family." Jiang Xue speculated.

Jiang Xue recognized the medicine bottle at a glance - it was used exclusively by Qu Shang.

This unique bottle was made by Qu Ruchen himself many years ago, so it means a lot to Qu Shang, and he always carries it with him. Jiang Xue was deeply impressed by it.

She didn't expect to find the clue so easily, she sighed inwardly. She was originally still worrying about how to find Qu Shang, but now he actually showed up on his own initiative.

"Prajna Palace, Feng Qin, Qu Shang!"

Jiang Xue pondered quietly, trying to sort out the connection between the three.

"Feng Qin... laugh... laugh Hun Ruo?"

Suddenly, her mind clicked and she sat up straight.

Feng Qin is Xiao Hunruo, the third most important person in Prajnafang and one of the three great Prajnas.

If she moves, Prajna Square will definitely move with her. This explains why Feng Qin's actions are always closely linked to Prajna Square.

Jiang Xue speculated that Xiaohunruo came to Yujing City this time most likely to hunt down Yu Prajna.

Because Yu Banruo betrayed Banruofang, Xiaohunruo harbored a deep hatred for her, even more than Baigui. In Xiaohunruo's eyes, Yu Banruo was an unforgivable traitor, and she vowed to put Yu Banruo to death.

Jiang Xue guessed that Xiao Hunruo might have learned that Yu Banruo was protected in the palace, so she used the identity of Miss Feng as a cover to enter the palace in order to get close to Yu Banruo.

"Your Majesty, Miss Feng just entered the palace again and said that she was invited by the Imperial Concubine." Tieyi brought the latest news.

"Hurry up! We have to get back to the palace immediately!"

Jiang Xue urged anxiously, her heart full of worry. She and Xiao Zhan had not concealed the fact that they had left the palace, and Xiao Hunruo might seize this opportunity to enter the palace and capture Yu Prajna.

After returning to the bedroom, Jiang Xue anxiously looked for Yu Prajna, but could not find her. The maid told her that Yu Prajna seemed to have been taken away by Cheng's people.

Jiang Xue didn't have time to change her clothes and immediately chased after him.

In front of Cheng, Yu Prajna was tied up tightly, but she remained calm, stood straight, and refused to bow to Cheng. Facing Cheng's questioning, she seemed calm and fearless.
