"What?" Wan Chengyan's calmness disappeared at this moment, and the unbelievable roar made Ying'er and Lu Liu, who had been guarding outside the door, look at each other and smiled wryly, thinking that it was the prince. It would be the best if the master can convince the concubine Shizi, if not... This trip is imperative.
"Say what you just said again," Wan Qi Chengyan's tone was so cold that Lingxuan couldn't help shrinking her neck, feeling a little wronged.
"You are so fierce!" Complaining coquettishly, thinking that he seemed to have never had such an expression in front of her, his eyes turned red, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt aggrieved.
Looking at the aggrieved person in front of him, Wan Chengyan didn't know whether he should be angry or distressed, thinking that she traveled thousands of miles to Mucheng, but she was going to Nanyu Kingdom, the worries and fears in her heart were clearly visible at this moment—he But he couldn't bear the pain of losing her, even if she was injured a little bit, it would hurt him so much that even breathing hurt.
All the anger, facing her flushed eyes, has already declared her surrender.
"Ah!" With a helpless sigh, he stretched out his big hand, pulled her into his arms, and said a little helplessly, "Xuan'er, you should stay in the capital!" The world is in chaos, and there is him, he I don't want her to carry everything by herself, it's too tiring and makes him feel bad.
Leaning on his chest, Lingxuan dawdled greedily for a few times, and then said firmly: "Stay in the capital and wait for the world to be disrupted? Yan, I don't want to be separated from you, and I don't want to see the Yun family's ambitions. I don’t want to disappear under the torture of my mother, and I don’t want the prosperous Dongyan Kingdom that my mother held in her hands to perish… Can you understand what I mean?”
I just understand, that's why I feel distressed!
There has never been a single moment of defeat, Wan Qi Chengyan felt that it was ridiculous and absurd to rely on Lingxuan's decision to rescue the East Yan Kingdom, but in fact, it was really so.
"Shall I go with you!?" Wan Qi Chengyan knew what Lingxuan was going to do in Nanyu Kingdom without even asking.
The power of Nanyu Kingdom is divided into two factions, the main battle and the main peace, so if possible, he wants to persuade King Xian.
War is a waste of people and money, and it will be even more miserable if it is defeated. Therefore, many people in Nanyu Kingdom oppose war. They only hope to live a peaceful life and do not want to become victims of power conspiracy.
The Yun family controls most of Nanyu Country's economy, overtly and secretly, maybe even Nanyu Country itself doesn't know about it. If Lingxuan went to Nanyu Kingdom and took back all the power of the Yun family, and no one else knew about it, that would be fine, but if people noticed, it would be an endless pursuit. He didn't want the woman he held in his hand to show up. Little things.
Even thinking about it that way, he couldn't accept it.
"Can you come together?" Hearing what he said, Lingxuan raised her head to look at the stubble protruding from his chin, stretched out her hand and dawdled curiously for a few times, and then quietly asked: "Prince Rui, can you leave?" You?"
Grabbing that tricky little hand, Wan Qi Chengyan looked at the naive girl helplessly, and explained: "Nanyu Kingdom is just delaying the time, and will withdraw its troops after attacking for a while. Whether to attack or what, it depends on the final decision, so so far, it is not my turn to do anything!"
With his status, it is not bad to be able to enter the barracks without the emperor's order, so it is impossible to go to the battlefield, so he has always been the most idle in the barracks.
Although it can help with ideas, Nanyu Kingdom's attack like a rogue is a headache but there is no way to do it.
"Then if you go to Nanyu Kingdom with me, will anyone recognize you?" Lingxuan continued to ask, she hoped that Wanqi Chengyan would go with her, but she didn't want anything to happen to him.
With Ying'er, Luliu, and secret guards by my side, under normal circumstances, nothing would happen. However, if someone wanted to harm Wan Qi Chengyan because of his identity, then he would rather go alone than go with him.
Looking at the little woman in her arms who was full of concern for her, Wan Qi Chengyan finally couldn't help but kiss her on the face, and said with a gentle smile: "Your man is not so attractive yet, if you change to If it is Prince Rui, maybe there is still that possibility!"
He is not the emperor's son, nor is he a soldier of the army, so what's the use of arresting him
Wan Chengyan has said so, Lingxuan has no reason to object. When she goes to Nanyu Kingdom, what she has to do is also very dangerous. After all, the Yun family is in the sphere of influence of Nanyu Kingdom. Who knows what the business of the Yun family is like there. They will send money and accounts to the capital in a year, but she has no idea what is going on in it.
But even so, she still wants to go, even if she has the determination to die, she will mess up the current situation.
She was a damn person.
However, now that Wan Qi Chengyan is accompanying her, she can feel much more at ease. She knows that Yan has someone in his hands, and she has a lot of skills, since she wiped out those bandits dressed as officers and soldiers in the south of the Yangtze River.
After Wan Chengyan explained his whereabouts and Lingxuan's intentions to Prince Rui, he took Lingxuan to Nanyu Kingdom by another road, and did not disturb too many people.
The arrival of Lingxuan and others was like a lost person finding his way home, and quickly disappeared in Mucheng without causing any disturbance at all.
Not long after, everyone will know how amazing these few unremarkable people have caused to Nanyu Kingdom and Dongyan Kingdom.
"Mother's system has been used for so many years, and I don't know if I can adapt to it in Nanyu Kingdom!" Lingxuan nestled in Wanqi Chengyan's arms, biting her fingers and muttering. Like an innocent little girl, she is innocent and innocent, completely lacking in the mysterious Yun Lingxuan who has the aura of a superior person in the eyes of Yun Tao and others.
Ying'er and Lu Liu had already gone outside the carriage, leaving room for the two masters who had met for a long time.
"Whether you get used to it or not, it should belong to the Yun family, and no one can take it away," Wan Qichengyan's eyes flashed fiercely. Anyone who dares to touch the things of the Yun family, even if it is in Nanyu Kingdom, he will I won't let it go.
"Hehe, Yan, it's great to have you!" Lingxuan couldn't help moving her body when she heard his domineering announcement, and looked up at him with a smile, her eyes were full of dependence, admiration and deep love.
Wan Chengyan didn't speak, but hugged her even tighter, with complicated thoughts in his heart.
In this woman's heart, there is a Dongyan country, but there is only room for herself.
This kind of her makes him feel distressed but extremely proud. She can pretend to be the next Dongyan Kingdom, and the only one she can worship in her eyes is herself. Therefore, no matter how difficult this road is, he will definitely accompany her She went down together.
Because of the war between the two countries, the relationship suddenly became tense. If they wanted to enter Nanyu Kingdom, they had to use some means. Fortunately, the exchanges between the two countries were not closed, otherwise the people would be miserable.
Because Mu City intersects with Nanyu Kingdom, the four countries were peaceful before, so the two countries were married, at least most of the people in the two cities were married to each other, so after the war, they suffered the most.
After entering Nanyu Kingdom, Lingxuan realized that the situation here is not much better than Mu City.
"War, it is the people who suffer!" Seeing the depression on the street, the people passing by occasionally are also full of anxiety, thinking about their loved ones on the other side of the war, and the pain in their hearts can be imagined.
Lingxuan rubbed her palms, making her decision even more firm.
"This war is completely unnecessary." She couldn't even think of what benefits Nanyu Kingdom could get
What can I do if I help Wanqi Lingxuan and make Jimo Leyao the queen of Dongyan Kingdom? Could it be that they can be sure that Wanqi Lingxuan's heart will always be the same, and won't turn his face and deny anyone after getting the rights he deserves? Can it be guaranteed that Jimo Le Yao will give birth to a son, and the son will be the future prince of Dongyan Kingdom
What is the point of such expectations
Regarding the complex thoughts of those superiors, Lingxuan said that she really didn't understand.
Entering a small town in Nanyu Country, although it can't be called very rich, Lingxuan likes it very much because of the simplicity of a small town. However, no matter how much she likes her, Lingxuan didn't stay here too long. They are going to the capital city where the Nanyu Kingdom's palace is located, which is where the center of business of the Yun family is located.
Nanyu Kingdom is the wealthiest among the four countries, because it has received the love of God, and the climate is most suitable for planting and living, so without Xuanyuanjin, Dongyan Kingdom would not be strong.
Lingxuan and Wanqi Chengyan tried their best to keep a low profile, just like a young couple on their way. As for Ying'er and the others, they had already hidden their tracks, protecting them not far or near, and did not appear by their side.
In the current situation, with one more person, there will be more danger and more attention, so Lingxuan feels that it is better to do everything by herself.
With her like this, she can feel the joy of being an ordinary couple with Wanqi Chengyan even more.
If you go back to Beijing, get along alone like this, simple and peaceful, it will disappear.
"Tomorrow we will arrive at the capital of Nanyu Kingdom, and the security over there will be even stricter," Wan Qi Chengyan looked at Xuan'er who seemed to be playing all the way, and couldn't help reminding her aloud.
Being close to the capital of Nanyu Kingdom means that their idle days are coming to an end.
Once you enter the capital city, you have to bear and endure whatever you are facing, even if it is beyond redemption, you must persevere to the end, and you can't back down in the slightest.
For a moment, Wan Qi Chengyan felt a little bit of resentment towards his mother-in-law whom he had never met before. You are so capable, so powerful, why didn't you think that everything will turn against you, why didn't you think of the wealthy Yun family? It will cause so many troubles, and the younger generations of the Yun family have hardly lived a good life. They have been plotted and coveted by others all day long, and now they have to take back all the Yun family in Nanyu Kingdom because of the war. power.
Was that made by humans? Is that something that a woman like Xuan'er should carry
Xuanyuanjin regarded all men and women as herself, thinking that one man was worth ten men.
But so what if there was resentment in his heart, not only could he not express it, but he could hide it in his heart and ferment it, lest Lingxuan would feel dissatisfied with him when he found out.
The enmity between her father-in-law and mother-in-law is the last hatred she can't let go.
Lingxuan looked up at the capital of Nanyu Kingdom, which was no worse than the capital of Dongyan Kingdom, and sighed slightly in her heart. She didn't know that her mother's appearance and her own rebirth contained herself. What
Because of the martial law, when Lingxuan and Wanqi Chengyan entered the city, they stuffed a lot of money before entering the city. Fortunately, what Nanyu Country said was similar to that of Dongyan Country, otherwise it would be difficult for the two of them to mix in.
Lingxuan thought, fortunately it is Nanyu country, if it is Beihan country, haha, some people have played.
No matter how defeated or depressed the outside world is, the capital of every country is healthy, prosperous, and lively, as if it is isolated from all the disputes outside, forming a world of its own, with only simple happiness, but ignorant of the pain outside The wailing all came from here.
"Don't think too much, the matter will be resolved," Wan Qi Chengyan immediately comforted her, noticing the fluctuations in her emotions.
"Well, I know," Lingxuan restrained her emotions, looked up, and found the inn with the Yun family mark not far away and the Taobao Building next door, her eyes lit up, and she said with a smile: "Let's go all the way I rushed over and didn’t have a good meal, so let’s go to Taojialou first!?”
"Okay," looked at her dotingly, as long as she was happy, everything was fine.
When Lingxuan and Wanqi Chengyan walked towards the Taobaolou, there was a strange feeling in their hearts, as if the bustle of the streets in the capital had nothing to do with the Taobaolou, it was a depression in its own way, Xiaoer was a little bit Leaning there listlessly, there was no joy in his eyes, and even when he saw them, he was only at a loss.
"Second brother, do you have food?" Lingxuan asked calmly, suppressing the doubts in her heart.
Seeing that they really wanted to come in for dinner, the second brother immediately nodded in surprise and said: "Yes, yes, yes...," he said "yes" several times in a row, which shows how excited he is. "The two guests are invited, what do you want to eat, the younger one will let the kitchen cook it immediately,"
Lingxuan looked at the younger brother like that, didn't make things difficult, but said a few dishes casually, and then saw the younger brother actively turned to the kitchen to report the name of the dish, and there was a burst of sourness in her eyes.
Taobaolou's business in Nanyu Kingdom has always been very good, and the amount of money it can contribute every year is well known, but at some point, Taobaolou has reached a miserable state where even customers do not come to the door.
"Don't think too much, just ask clearly." This kind of situation made Wan Qi Chengyan feel uncomfortable.
It's just that the Yun family's business in Nanyu Kingdom has suffered such a blow, so will the people of Dongyan Kingdom have a better life in Nanyu Kingdom
Many of the managers of the Yun family's business were transferred from East Yan Kingdom in order to ensure their loyalty to the Yun family.
But the current situation made Lingxuan very worried about the safety of those in charge, and she didn't know what the situation was.
Lingxuan and Wanqi Chengyan did not choose a seat near the door, but whispered in the corner without revealing their identities.
When the second brother brought the dishes, Lingxuan stopped him, and asked softly, "Second brother, isn't the business in this gluttonous restaurant the best? We came here just because of the reputation, how come we are doing this now?" What does it look like?"
A trace of helplessness flashed in Xiao Er's eyes, he looked up and looked around, and saw that no one was watching, so he opened his mouth to explain the endless pain.
"The two guest officials don't know that the business of this gluttonous building is the best no matter where in Nanyu Kingdom. Now it will become like this. It is really forced to have no way out," Xiao Er didn't know. How long has it been since I have had a good conversation with others, and every day is deserted, and he is about to get sick.
"Forced?" Lingxuan and Wanqi Chengyan looked at each other, and Wanqi Chengyan asked, "Pressed by who? Who can control other people's business?"
"Except for the one at the top, who else is there?" Xiao Er smiled bitterly, and then said helplessly, "No matter where you two are fighting, you must know that Nanyu Kingdom and Dongyan Kingdom are at war, and you will not hide it from them." Sir, this gluttonous building belongs to Dongyan Kingdom, and the prince of Nanyu Kingdom has been coveting the Yun family's business for a long time, but he has never been able to find an excuse. Now, the war needs food and grass, so the prince directly ordered, Ask the Yun family to hand over all the money, otherwise you will betray Nanyu Kingdom and arrest the shopkeeper. Those people know that the Yun family has offended the crown prince, so who would dare to come here to eat?"
The prince of Nanyu Kingdom... Lingxuan and Wan Qichengyan suppressed the shock in their hearts, thinking that this prince is really a despicable and shameless guy, who even asked the Yun family to pay money to attack Dongyan Kingdom, he couldn't figure it out.
"The one who caught the shopkeeper, can you hand over the money?" They all wanted that money.
Xiaoer didn't know why he told them this, but shook his head and said, "If the shopkeeper handed over, then the crown prince would like someone to make money for him. How could he bring the Yun family's business to this point!"
"If that's the case, then why didn't you just give the order to shut it down?" Wouldn't it be better to see it out of sight
Xiao Er saw that the two of them were completely unfamiliar with the situation in the capital, otherwise they would not have come to Taojialou for dinner at this time, so he lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "You two don't know something, this idler from Nanyu Kingdom The concubine is the princess of the Eastern Yan Kingdom. She doesn't like the food of the Nanyu Kingdom very much. She would come to the Taobaolou to have a meal from time to time. Therefore, in order to make the pregnant Princess Xian happy, So I strongly opposed it, and managed to save the Taobaolou, otherwise when the two of you came over, the place would have been closed long ago."
Anu is pregnant? Lingxuan couldn't hide her surprise in her heart, but she was even more grateful for what she had done for herself.
Back then, I kept that sign and hoped that she would reduce the pain of homesickness, but unexpectedly it became an excuse for her to protect the Yun family in disguise.
"Where is Xiao Er from? Didn't you leave quickly when you encountered such a thing?" Wan Qi Chengyan asked casually while leaving food in his hands.
"To tell you the truth, the younger one is from the East Yan Kingdom, and was brought here by the shopkeeper himself, so how could I be willing to let it go!" Xiaoer said very conflicted.
"Who are you, the shopkeeper?" Lingxuan asked curiously.
This Xiao Er can still stick to it after such a thing happened in the Taobaolou, which shows his loyalty to the Yun family.
"The younger one is the shopkeeper's nephew. Because his parents died when he was young, he came to Nanyu Kingdom with his uncle. He grew up crawling on that counter. How could he be willing to leave!" Xiao Er sighed and glanced at the lobby. , then lowered his head and said in a lonely voice: "I don't know if the shopkeeper can come out again, the prince won't let him go no matter how much money he takes, and even forced the shopkeeper to hand over the power of the Yun family in Nanyu Kingdom... also I don’t know how much the shopkeeper suffered in prison,”
Thinking of his only family member, Xiaoer's eyes were red as he spoke, and he was not lying at all.
Both Lingxuan and Wanqi Chengyan lost their appetite because of Xiao Er's words, the atmosphere dropped to the lowest level in an instant, no one spoke, and the entire lobby was so quiet that it made people feel sad.
"Xiao Er, the guest's food is ready, where did the person go?" Inside, there was a faint roar, which brought Xiao Er back to his senses, and then he remembered what he was going to do, and hurriedly bowed his head and nodded in embarrassment Said: "I'm sorry, the younger one was talking too much in front of the two guests, and the younger one went to serve the two guests immediately."
Without business, the Taobao Tower will not collapse for a while, but it is not known when the matter will really end.
He really wasn't used to the depression of the Taobaolou.
Ever since he could remember, it had been bustling here, and nothing like this had ever happened.
Lingxuan didn't make things difficult, but felt that the Yun family was sorry for these people.
If it wasn't for her sudden whim, maybe she didn't even know that the Yun family here were all suffering from such crimes.
"This idle king is interesting," Wan Qi Chengyan suddenly said when Lingxuan was feeling down.
When Lingxuan heard this, she looked up at him and asked curiously, "You want to find him?"
"It depends on the situation," now that the situation is unclear, they can't expose their identities just because of Xiaoer's few words.
"Um,"
After Xiao Er delivered the food, she no longer had the same emotion as before, and kept a distance from them all the time, and never moved forward.
Lingxuan ate those dishes without taste, and really wanted to put down her chopsticks, but she couldn't let go of the hopeful look in Shang Xiaoer's eyes, so she could only eat slowly with Wanqi Chengyan, wanting to put I finished all the dishes I ordered, so as to give him more hope, and let him feel that there is still a future for Taojialou.
To eat and live in Taozhaolou, the inn belonging to the Yun family is naturally indispensable.
Although the business is not good, but the tidy up is very clean, not too decadent, let Lingxuan and Wan Qi Chengyan explain: "The things left by mother, after so many years, have been passed down well, no matter what Under the circumstances, people should not think that the storefront is dirty and people are lazy... ," said the tone, proud and proud, as if she was the one who did these things.
The night in the capital was as lively as half a day, and the lively Lingxuan felt a little uncomfortable.
The whole capital city was bustling with activity, only the inn they stayed in was deserted and deserted, and the two of them lived in such a huge place. No matter who they were, they would not feel better about this feeling.
