After Wang Xi asked Rong Ji to go out, he stayed in the house by himself and couldn't sleep anymore. The servant who had been with him for many years said uneasy: "My lord, if Xie Zichen pursues this..."
Wang Xi didn't speak. After a while, he hooked the corner of his mouth and said bitterly: "What can he do?"
Could it be that if he didn't do these things, Xie Zichen didn't want to ruin him and the Wang family
There are no permanent enemies in this world, nor are there permanent friends. If they were allies when they assisted the crown prince, then after the crown prince ascended the throne, the Wang family and the Xie family have naturally formed a hostile relationship.
His father is the left chancellor, Xie Zichen is the minister, but as Wei Lan's right minister, he is connected with Xie Zichen. Now if the emperor hadn't become the emperor to balance the situation and give more support to the Wang family, he was going to raise the Wang family's daughter as the queen. There is no time to breathe.
Xie Zichen and him had already had an irreversible hostile relationship, but if Xie Zichen wanted to save face and leeway, Lin Che would not do so.
The matter of Lin Che was just Xie Zichen's statement. He didn't care about the Wang family, and he didn't even care about angering the Wang family.
Wang Xi raised her hand and took a sip of tea, closed her eyes, and tapped her palm with a fan.
I can't sleep tonight.
Under the guidance of Wang Xi's secret guard, Rong Ji waited on the only way Xie Zichen was going to go.
Tomorrow's enthronement ceremony, Xie Zichen was summoned by Su Bai into the palace to talk for a long time, and then he drove home in a rickety carriage. He rested in the carriage, the carriage stopped suddenly, and then he heard Xie Tong from outside: "Who is blocking the way?!"
Xie Zichen opened his eyes, lifted the curtain with his hand, and saw the girl in black robe under the moonlight.
The other party was hidden in a black robe, and then he lifted his wide hat, revealing his beautiful face under the hat.
"it's me."
Her voice was indifferent, Xie Zichen frowned: "Princess?"
"Xie Zichen," she said hoarsely, seeing this person appear, her eyes turned red. Xie Zichen looked around and saw that she was the only one on the road, so he knew that she had sneaked out, and said coldly, "Come up, I'll take you back."
Rong Ji pursed her lips, and finally walked to the side of the carriage on her own initiative. Xie Zichen was afraid that something might happen to her walking alone in the middle of the night. No matter how annoying she was, she was also Di Jie's princess. Xie Zichen hoped that Da Chu would be stable for a few years, so he didn't want anything to happen to this person at all.
Rong Ji climbed into the carriage, and the carriage moved towards the direction of the post where Rong Hua lived now, and slowly started to move. Xie Zichen sat in the corner farthest from her, closed his eyes, and had no intention of talking.
"My brother told me that Mr. Xie refused to marry me."
Rong Ji spoke slowly, but Xie Zichen ignored her, Rong Ji looked at Xie Zichen with tears in her eyes: "Really?"
"Your Highness," Xie Zichen said impatiently, "You are the one who wants to enter the palace, do you know that?"
"You didn't marry me because of this?"
"Your Highness," Xie Zichen opened his eyes, "I don't like you at all, why should I marry you?"
"But you saved me!" Rong Ji roared, "If you don't have the slightest affection for me, why did you save me?!"
"If it wasn't for the alliance between the two countries, do you think I care about you?" Xie Zichen's face was indifferent, his eyes like ice moved to Rong Ji's face, and he said indifferently: "Sometimes people don't take themselves too seriously. sad."
Rong Ji didn't speak, she squatted in the corner, curled up, hugged herself, and buried herself in her knees.
"Xie Zichen, when I was very young, my brothers told me that I am Di Jie's princess and I will get everything I want."
"Then they left and I had nothing left."
"Before I came to Dachu, I thought that my life would be like this. But I suddenly realized that I actually have another way."
"Who does Ronghua think he is? A humble son of a servant, does he think he can control everything about me?"
Rong Ji spoke quietly, and Xie Zichen noticed that her mood was not right. All along, Rong Ji has been a silly princess without any brains and abilities. Such a person, it is difficult for people to regard her as a powerful enemy. So when Xie Zichen stood up and felt dizzy for a while, he immediately sensed something was wrong, raised his hand and pinched Rong Ji's neck, but Rong Ji decisively pressed the tip of the knife against Xie Zichen's abdomen. Xie Zichen was dizzy and found it difficult to even stand up, so he raised his voice, "Xie Tong?"
The sound of people falling to the ground came from outside, and someone said respectfully: "Princess, it has been resolved."
"Find a place to settle."
Rong Ji calmly ordered the people outside. These people were obviously her secret guards, but Xie Zichen from the beginning to the end, or no one was aware of the existence of these people. Rong Ji looked up at Xie Zichen, and said coldly, "Marry me, or I will kill you, you choose."
Xie Zichen didn't speak, now he didn't dare to underestimate the person in front of him, after a while, he slowly loosened his grip on her neck.
He has no interest in dying with this person, Wei Lan is still waiting for him to go home, he is living well now, and will live no matter what.
So he panted in a low voice, and collapsed into the carriage: "How do you want me to marry you?"
"You promised to marry me?" Rong Ji sneered, "No, you are lying to me."
Speaking of which, Rong Ji stopped in front of him and approached him: "But, I won't let you fool me."
The carriage stopped, and a guard's voice came from outside: "Your Highness, I found an inn."
"Walk."
Rong Ji jumped out of the carriage, asked the guards to carry Xie Zichen in, and then walked into the room opened by the guards.
The guard put Xie Zichen on the bed, Rong Ji asked someone to fetch water, asked the guard to wash Xie Zichen, then fetched water again, went in and washed for a while, then put on a light shirt, and walked out, Xie Zichen immediately After understanding what she meant, she said with a stern expression: "Princess, are you just willing to degenerate like this?"
Rong Ji didn't speak, she walked towards the bed step by step.
Xie Zichen looked at her coldly, her face was calm, without the shyness or hesitation of a woman, she walked up to Xie Zichen as if offering sacrifices.
"Why?" Xie Zichen frowned: "Did you come to Dachu just to be a courtier's woman?"
"I come to Dachu, I can't control it," Rong Ji said coldly: "But who I want to marry should at least be chosen by myself."
"Tomorrow morning, everyone will find that you are not here, and then they will find that we are together. At that time, no one will be able to separate us. I can't marry the emperor. Ronghua will use up my best value, at least let me marry you. "
"So determined," Xie Zichen sneered, "Why did you run away when you weren't with Di Jie? Judging by your means, it's not like you can't run away."
"Yes," Rong Ji seemed to be preparing herself, and said slowly, "I can run away, but I am Di Jie's princess. Di Jie was defeated, and Di Jie needs to recuperate. As a princess, even if I don't want to, I am angry, but I cannot escape, I am obliged to do so. I am willing to go this road, but my identity and my subjects force me to go on.”
"Then you look like a princess again now?!"
"To Di Jie, there is no difference between marrying you and marrying Su Bai. To Da Chu, there is no difference."
"How can there be no difference?" Xie Zichen calmly analyzed to her: "Your brother's plan is not without reason to make you a concubine."
"That's because he intends to let me die."
Rong Ji sat down by the bed, showing unprecedented intelligence. She stared at Xie Zichen, and said indifferently: "Everyone believes that he will lead Di Jie to prosperity, and I believe so, so I acquiesce in his taking me to see you." To Da Chu. However, I cannot tolerate his plan, which is to make me die needlessly. I want to stay by your side, at least I can live."
"Why do you think you can live?" Xie Zichen sneered, "You came to me in such a way, even if you live, I won't make it easier for you."
Rong Ji didn't speak. After a long time, she lowered her head, approached Xie Zichen, and said slowly, "Do you know why I chose you?"
"Xie Zichen," Rong Ji brushed her hand over Xie Zichen's chest, and said calmly, "You are much softer than someone like Wei Lan. You have a gentle heart, and I treat you sincerely, you will know. "
"If you treat me sincerely, you won't be so relentless." Xie Zichen thought of a way to delay the time, and asked, "I'm afraid that Her Royal Highness doesn't intend to treat me sincerely, but just paves the way for your brother?"
Rong Ji froze, Xie Zichen continued: "He treats you like this, and you still insist on working hard for him, even at the expense of your own dignity, Rong Ji, you are simply infatuated with your brother beyond normal."
"What are you talking about..." Rong Ji raised her head and laughed, "I don't understand."
"Don't you understand?"
Xie Zichen sneered and said, "Princess Rong Hua's intention to come today, right? On the one hand, let Wei Lan go around and let you be a noble concubine, and on the other hand, let you come and entangle me. If you are discovered tomorrow, the relationship between me and Your Majesty, the monarch and his ministers I'm afraid the relationship is going to be deadlocked."
Xie Zichen didn't say anything more.
Being able to take this step, Rong Hua might be able to see that neither Wei Lan nor he intends to let Su Bai stay in this position for too long, marrying into the Xie Mansion to be Xie Zichen's mistress is more valuable than being a short-lived imperial concubine much. Rong Hua could see the relationship between him and Wei Lan. If he really married a wife, he might be alienated from Wei Lan. If Rong Ji tried her best to treat him better in the future, she could at least become an honorable Mrs. Xie. It's not good, but it didn't waste Rong Ji's move to separate the monarch and his ministers from Wei Lan.
As Princess Dijie, neither the imperial concubine nor Mrs. Xie can touch the core of Dachu. In this case, it is better to be more thorough and simply exist as a pawn.
Marrying is for other countries and subjects to see. As long as Rong Ji is married, the alliance will be established. As for what the process has done, as long as the alliance is still there, Rong Ji will definitely marry Da Chu.
Rong Ji knew what Rong Hua was thinking, at first she showed weakness and acted like a reckless and domineering princess, then chased Xie Zichen all the way, flirted with Wang Xi, and then Wei Lan caught up with Su Bai.
If it wasn't for Rong Ji's lack of charm, maybe it was a good move.
Just like this kind of thing, it's never easy to say. Xie Zichen probably didn't like her temperament, but if it wasn't for such an arrogant and brainless image, perhaps Rong Ji would not even see Xie Zichen, and it would be difficult for Xie Zichen to let go of her guard, and then tie him here so smoothly.
Rong Ji's face was unpredictable, and after a long time, Rong Ji finally said: "But, Mr. Xie, my love for you is indeed true."
Wei Lan was waiting in the mansion, seeing that the sky was getting dark, she couldn't help frowning: "Why hasn't the son come back yet?"
Tomorrow's enthronement ceremony, did the emperor actually keep him for so long
Ran Mo curled her lips, thinking that Wei Lan was someone who only went out in the afternoon after not seeing her for a day, and now she was talking about it again, so she said helplessly, "Okay, okay, I'll ask."
As he said that, Ran Mo asked people to inquire about Xie Zichen's news. After a while, the person who went to search came back in a hurry, but said: "Master Xiang is not well, Mr. Xie is gone."
"It's gone?!" Wei Lan got up suddenly, walked out, and immediately said with Ran Mo: "Order two hundred people, prepare horses."
As she said that, she turned her head and asked the person who came to report: "Where did you disappear? When did you disappear?"
"The servant went to ask. Mr. Xie left the palace in half an hour, but no one has come back yet."
"Bring the hound." Wei Lan walked to the gate, got on the horse, and after a while, Ran Mo pulled the dog out. Wei Lan took out a hairpin that Xie Zichen used to fix the crown from her sleeve, and gave it to the dog. After smelling it, he pulled the dog and ran towards Xie Zichen's usual route.
Halfway through the run, the hound barked wildly, Ran Mo immediately untied the hound's rope, and then the hound ran wildly in one direction. The hunting dog rushed to an inn with seven turns and eight turns, Wei Lan's face remained unchanged, seeing the inn, she knew that there was nothing serious about Xie Zichen, raised her hand and gave Ran Mo a token, and said coldly: "Seal the building."
Ran Mo immediately led people to clear the place, and two hundred soldiers directly blocked the street. Wei Lan arrested the store owner, and after careful interrogation, locked the person and asked the boss to lead them upstairs.
Rong Ji was still at loggerheads with Xie Zichen, just after saying that the love is true, the hidden guard rushed in and said, "Your Highness, Wei Lan is here!"
"It came so fast!"
Rong Ji was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "Come on, come on, she can kill me!"
With that said, Rong Ji unbuttoned her clothes, and then began to take off Xie Zichen's clothes.
Xie Zichen closed his eyes, and when Wei Lan came, he felt relieved, there was nothing Rong Ji could do anyway.
Rong Ji threw her clothes everywhere, then got into the quilt, put down the curtain, and lay down next to Xie Zichen. The moment Wei Lan kicked the door in, she immediately exclaimed: "Who?!"
Wei Lan saw the scene inside, but didn't speak.
According to Rong Ji's prediction, Wei Lan, a man, would definitely back away when she saw herself lying on the bed half naked. Who would have thought that Wei Lan raised her hand, let everyone get off, and walked directly towards the bed.
"What are you going to do!" Rong Ji yelled, and at the same time waved her hand, Xie Zichen felt that he had strength again, but he was completely unwilling to reveal this fact, lying on the bed, leaning against the wall without a sound Damn, after getting a little further away from Rong Ji, he pretended that he was still limp.
Wei Lan ignored Rong Ji's words, her face was stern, she strode to the bedside, and pulled off the curtains, revealing the two naked people inside.
She seemed to have expected such a scene. Amidst Rong Ji's screams, she grabbed her hair and threw the woman out, then half-kneeled in front of Xie Zichen.
She didn't know what to say for a moment.
Her lover was humiliated because she didn't protect him well. Seeing Xie Zichen limp on the bed, she didn't know why, but felt sore in her heart, and her eyes were so red.
She bent down, took Xie Zichen into her arms, lowered her head and kissed him, and said softly, "Zichen, it's fine, don't be afraid."
Xie Zichen: "..."
"Alan..." Xie Zichen whispered with warmth in his heart, "I'm fine..."
He originally wanted to say that she didn't touch me, but he didn't know why it felt weird when he said it.
Hearing Xie Zichen's words, Wei Lan was even more sad. He has always been so sensible, and he didn't say anything when he was wronged, and he carried the wind and rain by himself. Even if he encountered such a big insult, his first thought was to comfort himself. She put the coat on Xie Zichen, then covered his eyes with a hair tie, and said softly, "Zichen, don't look."
"Alan!" Xie Zichen grabbed Wei Lan's hand and said anxiously: "This is a critical moment for the alliance between the two countries, don't mess around!"
"If she can mess around, I can't?!" Wei Lan got angry and shouted, "I, Wei Lan, have never been insulted like this in my life. If she is left in this world, I will be born like a human being!"
"I'm really..." Xie Zichen didn't know how to express it so it wasn't so strange. Just as he opened his mouth, Wei Lan tapped his acupuncture points. Wei Lan stroked his hair, lowered her head and kissed him, and said gently: "Don't worry , I will take care of everything, no one can bully you, trust me, be good."
Xie Zichen was speechless and his eyes were covered. Wei Lan pulled out the sword from her waist and walked in front of Rong Ji.
Rong Ji was lying on the ground, her eyes were black, her head was bleeding from the bump, she clutched her forehead and moaned in pain, panting heavily.
The sound of fighting came from outside, it should be Rong Ji's hidden guards entangled with her people. Wei Lan didn't move, and said coldly: "Where did you touch him?"
Rong Ji didn't speak. After a long time, she raised her head, sneered and said slowly, "Wei Lan, what do you mean by pointing your sword at me? If he didn't want to have sex with me, I'm a woman, and I can force him No way? You actually want to kill me because of the love between two people?"
If this is said to others, others may still believe it. After a while, she will reveal the fact that Xie Zichen pretended to be unable to move, and the truth of this statement will be a little bit more. If her medicines were all equipped by top famous doctors, it would be impossible for anyone to tell whether she had been given medicine. It would be difficult to say whether Xie Zichen voluntarily or was forced to do so.
How can a woman make fun of her own Qingyu, and how can a woman like her with a poor brain be able to tie Xie Zichen up? If she had the means to tie Xie Zichen, she would have done it a few times earlier.
Rong Ji speculates about the thinking of ordinary people, but never thinks that in Wei Lan's mind, men are easy to be forced by women.
So she sneered: "Don't say it, right? It's okay, I'll just cut you alive."
"How dare you!" Rong Ji yelled angrily, "If something like this leads to the failure of the alliance between the two countries, can you afford it?!"
"Who said that if you die, you can't form an alliance?" Wei Lan wiped the blade of the sword with a handkerchief, and squinted at Rong Ji: "Rong Ji, you overestimate your position in your brother's heart."
As soon as the words fell, the sword pierced into Rong Ji's body, directly breaking her meridians.
Rong Ji screamed, Wei Lan remained motionless, and cut down along the texture of the muscle with one sword after another. Rong Ji raised her hand and stabbed towards Wei Lan, Wei Lan kicked, Rong Ji knelt down in pain, dripping with cold sweat, finally gritted her teeth and said, "Why..."
"Xie Zichen... What does it have to do with you? Why did you kill me?"
"Why?" Wei Lan laughed angrily: "You moved my people, and you still ask me why I killed you. You think I have a good temper, don't you?"
This is the second time Wei Lan told her that this is hers. Rong Ji couldn't understand at all: "What is your person... Is he your subordinate? Staff?"
"No," Wei Lan said lightly, "he is my husband."
Rong Ji was completely taken aback.
"You're a man!" she screamed. "You're crazy... you're all men..."
"So what?" Wei Lan stepped on her, and the sword swept across her back, causing a sharp pain. Rong Ji yelled and cursed with all her strength: "Disgusting! Bitch! Wei Lan, you really are Lord Rabbit in the military camp..."
The pain made Rong Ji a little confused, and she began to beg for mercy: "I never touched him... I was wrong... please forgive me..."
"Although you haven't touched him, you deserve to die if you want to harm him."
Wei Lan answered calmly.
She has been patient for a long time.
Be patient with this woman, considering the situation, she doesn't want to do too much. She originally thought that this mindless princess would stop at that falling into the water, but she never thought that she was really, truly, threatening Xie Zichen.
She couldn't tolerate such a danger staying by her man's side, she thought about Xie Zichen, and wanted to hurt him at all times.
Xie Zichen was her man, and she had the responsibility to protect him.
Apart from responsibility... she also has uncontrollable impulse and anger.
Damn Rong Ji.
Wei Lan vented the anger she had endured for a long time, Rong Ji saw that Wei Lan had made up her mind to kill, so she gave up begging for mercy, and laughed loudly: "Why... you bastard, why do you meddle in Xie Zichen's affairs? He Is it your husband, are you his wife? Have you ever paid homage? Who will recognize you? Let me tell you Wei Lan, without me, there will be other people, there will be the next Rong Ji, because Xie Zichen has no wife, which one? Women don't think that he doesn't have a wife, they don't think that they can have him, possess him... "
Rong Ji's voice was sharp and mournful, but fortunately, the surrounding two streets had been cleared and no one could hear her.
Her words pierced Wei Lan's heart sharply, making her extremely manic.
Yes. It was she who gave them a chance.
Wei Lan put the last sword into Rong Ji's body, and the man finally lost his breath.
Wei Lan threw the sword on the ground, walked to the bed, dressed Xie Zichen, and hugged him horizontally.
When she opened the door and walked out of the room with Xie Zichen in her arms, a strong smell of blood came to her face. Ran Mo saw the scene inside and gasped in fright. Then she heard Wei Lan say, "Clean it up."
Ran Mo responded immediately, and she felt Wei Lan's frightening aura, which Wei Lan had rarely experienced before. Sometimes, it is usually extremely angry, and at this time, people will often die.
Even people who are not familiar with Wei Lan, everyone can feel the coldness like hell Shura.
No one dared to speak, Wei Lan hugged Xie Zichen, covered his body with clothes, gently carried him to the carriage, and put him in her arms.
"It's all right," she looked at the blindfolded person, lifted the hairband covering his eyes, and said softly, "I'll take you home."
