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

"So you still want to attack her again?" Xiao Zhan asked.

"That's not what I meant. From now on, I will keep my resentment to myself and never be rude to her again."

After all, her daughter was still in Jiang Xue's hands, so she didn't dare to do anything rash again.

"So much the better."

Xiao Zhan warned: "If you hurt me again in the future, I will no longer help your Feng family, nor will I forgive you."

Madam Feng was shocked: "Yun Che, what did *** do to you?"

“She didn’t do anything.”

Xiao Zhan explained: "But I know that the emperor is young and needs time to grow up. The stability of the Qian Kingdom Dynasty depends entirely on the maintenance of the emperor.

If she fails, the four surrounding countries will invade, the country will fall into war, and the people will suffer. As the minister entrusted by the late emperor, I must ensure the safety of the dynasty. "

"As long as the country exists, the family can survive; if the country is destroyed, the family will perish. Your Feng family has been loyal to the country for generations, and your eldest cousin and second brother even sacrificed their lives for it.

Now *** is the guarantee of the stability of the dynasty. Even if you hate her to the core, for the sake of national interests, please stop targeting her. When the nest is overturned, how can the eggs remain intact? I hope you and the Queen Mother can understand this."

"Yun Che!"

Madam Feng was silent for a moment and then said, "I will remember what you said today."

Although I agree with his views, I can't help but doubt whether he is really only thinking about the country.

"I hope you really understand."

Xiao Zhan said: "I have other matters to deal with, so I'll take my leave now."

After Xiao Zhan left, Madam Feng was alone in deep thought.

She thought worriedly that her daughter Feng Ziqing was now under house arrest, and Xiao Zhan seemed to be drifting away from her.

She couldn't help but wonder whether her decision to send her daughter to the palace at great pains was a mistake.

After Jiang Xue returned to the mansion and finished her business, she planned to go to Xiao Zhan's villa.

At this time, Fudong came in with a precious guqin. This guqin named Jiaowei was once the favorite of the master Su Hongxiu of the previous dynasty and was extremely rare.

Jiang Xue took the guqin and gently plucked the strings. She immediately felt its extraordinary quality and said with a smile, "Yun Che will definitely like it."

"No matter what kind of treasure or ordinary musical instrument the princess gives as a gift, the Prime Minister will certainly regard it as a treasure. This is what is called 'love the house and love the dog'." Fudong said cleverly.

"You are good at talking."

Jiang Xue then asked, "Have you explained to Lan Feng what happened in the palace yesterday?"

"I have already told General Lan everything, and he also asked me to tell the princess a message."

"What?"

"General Lan said that no matter when and where, he will firmly stand by the princess."

Hearing this, Jiang Xue felt a little comforted, and at the same time she hoped that Lan Feng could put aside his personal feelings for her and focus on their friendship.

When Xiao Zhan arrived at the villa, Jiang Xue had already prepared a table of food waiting for him.

The two smiled at each other. At that moment, Xiao Zhan saw his beautiful and gentle wife waiting for her husband to return. This feeling filled his heart with warmth.

"Xiaoxue, how long have you been waiting for me?" Xiao Zhan asked gently.

"Not long."

As Jiang Xue spoke, she served him a bowl of nourishing chicken soup: "Eat more of this to replenish your blood. I have a gift for you after dinner."

"What gift is it?"

"We can't say yet."

Curious about the gift, Xiao Zhan quickly finished his dinner.

When he saw the legendary jiaoweiqin that had been burned but was still intact, an expression of surprise appeared on his face.

Rumors are always shrouded in mystery, but they are not facts.

"Xiaoxue, can I play the piano for you?" Xiao Zhan suggested gently.

"I want to hear it."

Jiang Xue sighed softly: "But your wrist is still recovering, so let's wait until later."

"What shall we do in this long night?"

"We can play chess or read books," she suggested.

"That's all meaningless."

He gently held her waist and pulled her closer to him: "Such a beautiful night should not be wasted."

Jiang Xue understood his thoughts, but pushed him firmly: "Stop it, you are still injured."

"It's just a minor injury to my wrist. It won't affect anything else. Xiaoxue, I missed you so much."

There was a hint of pleading in his voice.

She let down her bun, letting her long black hair fall over her shoulders like flowing water, her eyes revealing a deep tenderness.

This time, she did not push him away, but gently pushed him down on the bed. Looking at him, her smile was full of warmth and playfulness.

“Yun Che, I like you. I really like you very much.” She said frankly.

Xiao Zhan's eyes lit up and he responded, "Xiaoxue, my heart also completely belongs to you."

When his lips were about to move closer to hers, he was gently stopped by her little hand.

She held his hand tightly, her eyes full of smiles and challenges: "Tonight, I want to play a game, the princess is on top and the prime minister is on the bottom."

At this moment, in Xiao Zhan's eyes, she was no longer the high and mighty princess, but a woman full of vitality and charm. He smiled and surrendered, letting her take charge of everything!

On the other side, Feng Ziqing, who was under house arrest, was filled with resentment and almost turned the Zhaode Hall upside down.

She couldn't accept being trapped in this small space, and even more so the fact that she lost to Jiang Xue.

She resented that Lan Feng's eyes only followed Jiang Xue, resented the late emperor's exclusive favor for Jiang Xue, and resented Xiao Zhan for betraying her without hesitation for Jiang Xue.

Zhuier looked at the Queen Mother's crazy behavior with fear: "Queen Mother, please calm down and don't hurt yourself."

Feng Ziqing snorted coldly: "Even if I fall ill, so what? Who would care about my life or death?

The person I love only cares about others, my mother only cares about power and wealth, even my brother and son don't stand on my side, is there anyone in this world who will care about me?"

Queen Mother, if you don't love yourself, who will truly love you?"

Zhuier knelt on the ground and said sincerely: "I believe that one day, your life will be a thousand times better than it is now. Your good fortune is ahead, so don't worry too much."

After hearing this, Feng Ziqing seemed to have an idea light up.

"That's right. How can I indulge in sorrow? I have to cheer myself up. The future will definitely be better. As for Jiang Xue, she will eventually understand the price of fighting against me."

Seeing this, Zhuier wanted to persuade the Queen Mother to give up her hostility towards Jiang Xue and concentrate on protecting the Emperor, but considering the Queen Mother's temper, she finally remained silent.

"Zhuier." Feng Ziqing called softly.

"The servant is here."

"Tomorrow you go find the guards outside Zhaode Hall and ask them to bring in a statue of Bodhisattva and some Buddhist scriptures. I will pray for the emperor and copy the scriptures to pray for his blessings."

Feng Ziqing understands that it is not easy to change the current situation, but she is determined to start with herself and show the love and care that a mother should have. Perhaps she can touch Xiao Zhan's heart and make him reconsider his situation.

The next day, when Zhuier made the request, the guards immediately reported the matter to Jiang Xue.

She thought for a moment and agreed: "Since it is for the welfare of the emperor, then grant it."
