All the Gold and Jade: Princess Consort

Chapter 55: Escape【Why can you decide the life and death of innocent people at will? 】

After returning to the mansion, Xu Heng was a little unhappy, even the guard at the door could clearly see that the son-in-law was in a bad mood, and it was very bad.So when the boy was wondering whether to salute Xu Heng from a distance or wait for Xu Heng to approach before saluting, Xu Heng had already come to him.

The servant hurriedly bowed and said, "Greetings to the son-in-law."

Xu Heng waved his hand casually and asked, "Where is the princess?"

"Returning to the son-in-law, news came from the palace early in the morning that the princess has entered the palace."

Xu Heng asked in a muffled voice: "Did the princess say when she will be back?"

"Uh... no."

"Humph!"

Xu Heng didn't say a word, and walked towards the mansion angrily. After walking a few steps, a small stone at her feet blocked the way. The nasty pebbles kicked into the lake.

Standing in the distance, Liu Ying looked at Xu Heng's angry look, poked the elbow of the little girl beside her, and asked, "What's wrong with the son-in-law?"

The little girl shook her head and said, "I don't know, but it looks like I had another fight with the princess."

Liuying said: "Nonsense! The son-in-law and the princess have already reconciled, and the husband and wife are deeply in love, why are they arguing?"

"...How do I know this, you go over and ask her what's wrong."

Liu Ying hurriedly waved her hand: "Forget it, the son-in-law seems to be angry, so he won't touch her brow."

The little girl reminded: "The princess asked us to pack the clothes for Young Master Ah Nuo, hurry up, if the princess doesn't pack it up before returning home, we both will be ruined."

"Oh yes! Go, go, go."

At this time, the willow tree by the lake had sprouted buds, and the hanging willow branch hit Xu Heng's head. She angrily pulled the willow branch down, made a willow whistle casually, and blew it by her mouth. A few times, but did not blow out a decent tune.

Angrily, she threw the whistle and the remaining willow branches into the lake. A few red carp just popped their heads and shrank back in fright, making Xu Heng even more depressed.

"Who made our Ah Heng angry?"

When Xu Heng was feeling bored, Yongyan's voice suddenly came from behind. For some reason, Xu Heng heard Yongyan's tone in her ears like magic, which made her instinctively bend the corners of her mouth.

"You're back!" The boy's voice was full of surprise, and the haze in his heart was swept away.

Xu Heng turned around, and saw that the girl was wearing a light green satin dress, and a white jade hairpin was inserted in her hair, with orchids carved on it.

The breeze blew away her hair at the temples, Xu Heng closed her eyes and sniffed, as if she could smell the fragrance of plum blossoms in the air, and the pretty girl was standing where she was, smiling at her, waiting for her to approach.

Xu Heng instinctively took a few steps in the direction of Yongyan, but suddenly remembered what Zhou Jiyu said to her, she stopped, and muttered back from a distance: "It's nothing, no one Make me angry."

Yongyan stood still in front of her, looking at her awkward little appearance, he just thought it was cute, raised his hand to touch her little head, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "It's really nothing?"

Xu Heng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head firmly: "It's nothing, nothing happened!"

Yongyan looked at her for a while, trying to see something in her eyes, but Xu Heng kept pouring his lips without any concealment, as if he had been wronged, Yongyan pinched her limp With a small face, he said in a gentle voice: "I heard from my servant, have you gone to the prison?"

Xu Heng still pouted, blinked and blinked his eyes to analyze the current situation, and felt that since he was pointed out by Yong Yan face to face, he should simply admit it, anyway, it's not something shameful.

"Princess...you know everything."

Yongyan sighed, rubbed her little head and said, "Just ask what you want to know, I will tell you everything you want to know."

Xu Heng stared at Yongyan's eyes without blinking, and asked after a long time: "Did the princess really tell me everything?"

Yongyan lowered his eyes: "What do you want to know?"

Xu Heng looked into Yongyan's eyes with an unprecedentedly calm expression: "Zhou Jiyu said that there was no problem with the jade in Qingfengnian from the beginning, but it was lost during the escort to the Turks. Is there such a thing?"

Yongyan suddenly paused when he heard the words, then suddenly relaxed all over, chuckled as if accepting his fate, and replied: "Yes."

Xu Heng took a deep breath, but his voice began to tremble slightly: "Zhou Jiyu said that the mastermind behind this matter is the emperor, is it true?"

Yongyan still smiled, and replied: "Yes."

Xu Heng smiled wryly, her chest was obviously heaving violently, but she deliberately suppressed herself to make her voice sound more normal, and then asked the last question, which is also the most important one.

"He also said that this errand originally belonged to Yubaozhai, and Yubaozhai originally made jade wares and sent them to Turkic. Who knew that because of the accidental fire, it fell into the year of Qingfeng, is that so? "

This time, Yongyan fell silent, she lowered her head and did not answer.

But this silent silence, on the contrary, has proved everything.

"Princess, are you talking? Why don't you talk?"

"The emperor originally planned to sacrifice the Xu family, right?"

"Princess, princess, why can you decide the life and death of innocent people at will? What did we do wrong? Don't you think that the lives of ordinary people are not fate? What does the emperor want to do?" ? He is already the emperor, what can't be done openly? This method must be used!"

Yongyan opened his mouth, unable to refute.

After Xu Heng finished speaking, he stood there in a daze, as if all the strength had been taken out of his body.

At this moment, how much she wished that Yongyan could give a few explanations, how much she wished that Yongyan could tell her in person that the truth of the matter was not like this, she was wrong, the emperor is not that kind of person.

However, Yongyan once again chose to remain silent.

In this silent silence, Xu Heng ran away.

For the first time, she returned to Xiyuan again, the courtyard where she used to live, which was almost deserted at this time.

Ever since she shared a room with Yongyan, she has been living with Yongyan, so she seldom comes to Xiyuan, but at this moment she just wants to escape.

As long as you escape from Yongyan's sight, and don't let her see you again, that's fine.

She suddenly felt cold, like a sparrow standing alone in a storm, facing the overwhelming wind and rain, without any shelter.
