Beijing, Prince Yan's Mansion.
King Yan, who had made his official public appearance in the capital, finally returned to the mansion where he had not lived for too long.
Princess Yan is now looking past everything and is in a state of being strong without desire.
When the news came that King Yan had returned to the palace, Princess Yan just responded casually, and then nothing more happened.
"Princess, Your Highness is back, why don't you go and see him?"
The steward's mother who was waiting next to Princess Yan saw that Princess Yan just responded and was still doing what she should do, so she couldn't help but bravely reminded her.
Princess Yan glanced at the mother in charge and said, "What's there to see?"
So much time has passed since King Yan made his public appearance in the capital, and King Yan has never sent anyone to say even a word.
Princess Yan is not stupid and naturally understands what this means.
Her union with King Yan was a marriage.
There was no conjugal love between the two of them.
In addition, she was previously controlled by the old lady of Xu Mansion, thinking that Xu Mansion was her fundamental supporter in Prince Yan's Mansion, and did a series of foolish things.
I was stupid and squandered the little affection I had in the first place.
When she was sent to Huai'en Temple by the emperor's order, King Yan was alive but showed no sign of it. Princess Yan also understood that the relationship between them was completely broken.
King Yan is returning to his mansion now just because this is Prince Yan's mansion.
Although she is still Princess Yan, she is only Princess Yan.
If she still wants to keep her title as Princess Yan, she should be aware of current affairs and not get close to Prince Yan.
It's a rush, it's not a business.
Not to mention that the twisted melon is not sweet, but it can quench your thirst.
How do you know that the other person is thirsty
"Pass the word, from now on, there is no need to report anything about King Yan to me!"
"Also, people in the backyard should keep their mouths shut."
"Weigh what you should say and what you shouldn't say, don't make any mistakes!"
"yes!"
The mother in charge was trembling in her heart after hearing what Princess Yan said. Although Princess Yan didn't say anything to her, she felt that these words were hitting her.
…
King Yan returned to Prince Yan's Mansion, just as Princess Yan guessed, because this was Prince Yan's Mansion. If this was not Prince Yan's Mansion, Prince Yan would never set foot here.
"Leng Que, what is the princess doing?"
After returning to Prince Yan's Mansion for a long time and handling a lot of official duties, Prince Yan suddenly raised his head and looked at Leng Que who was standing guard next to him, and asked slowly.
"Back to Your Highness, the princess is reading a book..."
"Been reading?"
King Yan was stunned for a moment, obviously shocked by Leng Que's answer.
Leng Duo nodded, shook his head, and said, "It's not like she was reading all the time. During this period, the princess also went to walk around the yard and ate some cakes."
"that's all?"
"yes!"
Leng Que nodded affirmatively this time.
King Yan was a little dumbfounded. He really didn't expect Princess Yan to be so calm. However, he was only shocked for a moment and put the matter aside.
After being married to Princess Yan for so many years, King Yan felt that he knew Princess Yan very well. In his opinion, Princess Yan's move was clearly an attempt to catch her.
"ridiculous!"
King Yan didn't think what Princess Yan did was of any use. He has completely given up on this princess who can't figure it out.
If Lu Mudan didn't want to marry him, he would have deposed Princess Yan as the princess.
As for now, the reason why Princess Yan is kept is because he needs someone to occupy Princess Yan's position.
King Yan firmly believes that where sincerity reaches, gold and stone will be opened.
As long as he keeps working hard, he will always be able to embrace the beauty.
It's a pity that King Yan doesn't really understand Lu Mudan. If she knew Lu Mudan, she wouldn't have such illusions. Even if you have such illusions, you should first show your own attitude, not like this.
…
For several days in a row, King Yan would return to Prince Yan's Mansion, but he had no interaction with Princess Yan at all.
Then, King Yan discovered that Princess Yan, who was living in the backyard, seemed to have no idea that he, King Yan, had returned. After asking Leng Que, King Yan found out that Princess Yan had not even asked anyone in the backyard to inquire about his information.
"Smug woman!"
King Yan became more and more determined that Princess Yan was playing hard to get.
"My lord, my subordinates think that the princess really doesn't pay attention to you!"
Leng Que felt that he should still give his honest advice.
When King Yan heard Leng Que's words, he chuckled and said, "You don't understand. When you get married, you will understand!"
"By the way, is there a girl you like?"
Speaking of this, King Yan suddenly became interested.
Leng Que shook his head violently and said, "No!"
"I don't want to get married!"
As the leader of King Yan's bodyguard, Leng Que had no intention of getting married. Why did Leng Jue betray King Yan before him? It was not because of women, but because he had a family.
Once a man has a family, he will be burdened and his heart will soften.
"How did this happen?"
King Yan glared, "In this way, after this busy period, I will personally act as a matchmaker for you."
"Speaking of which, you can't always work as an errand by my side. You have to have a serious job. This way, you can have something to say when we talk about kissing!"
"Your Highness, I really don't want to get married!"
"Okay, okay, I understand. Leave this matter to me, and I will definitely pick a lady for you!"
“…”
Leng Que didn't want to talk anymore.
"Let's go and find a place to have a drink!"
King Yan put away the documents on the table and asked Leng Que to leave.
Although he returned to Prince Yan's Mansion these days, Prince Yan rarely ate at Prince Yan's Mansion. When it was time to eat, he would take people out of the mansion and find a restaurant.
The group of people left Prince Yan's Mansion, talking and laughing, discussing where to eat.
A carriage came slowly from the opposite side.
There are many such carriages on the streets of the capital city.
Neither King Yan nor the Whirlwind personal guards took it too seriously.
However, when the carriage was only ten steps away from King Yan, the curtain of the carriage was suddenly opened, and four bows were revealed inside the carriage.
Four bows with arrows on the strings!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Four arrows were fired in unison, arriving in an instant.
"Your Highness, be careful!"
At the critical moment, Leng Que reacted and slammed King Yan to the ground. And with Leng Que's collision, his body stood where King Yan was before.
puff! puff!
Two of the four arrows hit Leng Que. The impact of the arrows entering his body took Leng Que's body flying away one after another.
"kill!"
The wooden boards of the carriage fell in all directions, and four men in black, together with the driver, rushed out, each holding a long knife, and rushed towards King Yan and his party.
The reaction of the whirlwind guards was undoubtedly extremely fast. They raised their hands and fired a volley of crossbows.
The five assassins were shot into hedgehogs in an instant. (End of chapter)
