Xiao Yunchen shook his head and said: "I don't know what happened, but what I am sure of is that the Queen and the Helan family no longer exist."
Although Yu Yunxuan was shocked, she couldn't help but feel happy. Without the queen and the Helan family, her mother and concubine no longer had to be threatened by others and live in fear.
"What about my mother-in-law? How is she? Do you have any news about her?"
Xiao Yunchen naturally knew about Concubine Yun's current situation, but after thinking about it, she decided not to tell Yu Yunxuan, so as not to worry her.
"I don't know Concubine Yun's condition, but I think it's not too bad. After all, the queen is no longer here."
Yu Yunxuan thought so too, and her heart slowly relaxed after thinking of this.
One night, in a wilderness, there was a conversation between two black figures.
A tall black figure, with his back to the other black figure, said in a low voice: "How could you make the decision without permission and kill her?"
The other dark figure is slightly hunched over, looking a bit like a subordinate, rather older.
"Master, Princess Yunxuan is the daughter of the Emperor of the Western Kingdom. If she dies, the Emperor will definitely blame Xiao Yunchen.
The relationship between the two countries is already fragile. With this fuse, the Western Kingdom will definitely raise its troops to attack Dongchen. When Dongchen is in chaos, won't it be much easier for you to seize this country?"
"I want to seize the country, and I have my own way. I don't need to sacrifice a woman to achieve my goal!" the young black shadow said, and then said in a commanding tone: "I can tell you, if you dare to make arbitrary decisions again
, I will never be lenient!"
"Master! You cannot be soft-hearted at this time, the throne..."
"Okay, don't say any more. I have my own sense of discretion and I don't need you to remind me!" After saying that, the black shadow jumped down the mound and disappeared into the night.
In the next two days, Yu Yunxuan did not go out and stayed in bed to recover from her injuries. Xiao Yunchen came to visit several times every day and seemed particularly concerned.
Yu Yunxuan still thinks every time that Xiao Yunchen may still have some feelings for her, but every time she quickly denies this idea and can't help but laugh at herself for thinking too much.
Perhaps Xiao Yunchen stopped him once. Xu Yubai knew that he was not welcome, so he did not come to see him again. After that, he did not appear in front of Yu Yunxuan on his way back to Beijing.
In fact, Yu Yunxuan felt very guilty. He saved her, but she treated him like this.
After returning to the palace, Yu Yunxuan was injured and could not move around much. She could only stay in the palace to recuperate from her injuries.
Although it is a bit boring, it is possible to live with the flowers in the garden every day. When you are bored, just play with the flowers and plants.
On this day, Xiao Yunchen specially came to have breakfast with Yu Yunxuan, and then hurried out because of something else. Yu Yunxuan had nothing to do, so she had to go to the garden to water the flowers to pass the time.
Not long after, the maid came to report: "Princess, the concierge came to report that Mr. Xu is here and comes to visit you. Do you want to see him?"
Dong Xiu, who was on the side, heard this and hurriedly came over to persuade him: "Princess, in order to avoid suspicion, I think it's better for you not to see Mr. Xu."
"Yes, princess, I also think it's better to send him away, otherwise there will be another rumor storm." Xia Lian also advised.
"Avoid suspicion?" Yu Yunxuan knew that what Dong Xiu and Xia Lian said was right, but she was very conflicted in her heart. On the one hand, she didn't want to be criticized by outsiders anymore, but on the other hand, she wanted to talk to Xu Yubai face to face.
thank.
After thinking for a long time, Yu Yunxuan decided to meet Xu Yubai.
"Please invite Mr. Xu into the flower hall, I will go later."
Dong Xiu and Xia Lian suddenly became anxious: "Princess..."
"You don't need to say any more. I know that my meeting with him may cause misunderstandings, but Mr. Xu saved my life after all. It's okay if I don't thank you. Now that he comes to visit, I avoid seeing him. It's really rude.
Already."
Dongxiu was helpless and muttered unhappily: "What on earth does Mr. Xu want to do? He knows that this will bring gossip to the princess and himself, and yet he wants to pester her like this. It's really too much."
Xia Lian saw Yu Yunxuan glaring over, and quickly pulled Dongxiu's sleeves and said, "Stop talking, the princess will scold people later."
When Yu Yunxuan came to the flower hall, Xu Yubai was sitting drinking tea.
"I'm sorry to have kept Mr. Xu waiting for so long!" Yu Yunxuan walked to the table and sat down, smiling.
"It's not that I'm here because of urgent matters. It doesn't matter if I wait." Xu Yubai smiled, and then asked with concern: "How is the princess's injury?"
"It's okay. The wound has healed. It will heal after a while of training. Thank you Mr. Xu for your concern and for coming here to see me."
Yu Yunxuan said politely, "When I was in Mianshan, thanks to the young master's timely rescue, I have been recovering from my injuries during this period. I didn't have the opportunity to say thank you to the young master. It's so rude. I really don't know what to do with the young master's kindness in saving my life."
repay!"
Xu Yubai waved his hands and said with a hearty smile: "Princess, please don't say that. It's right for me to save you. You don't have to keep it in mind, let alone repay. Now that I see you are fine, princess, I feel relieved."
.”
However, Yu Yunxuan became more and more grateful and guilty. She thought that if she had the opportunity in the future, she must repay Xu Yubai well.
The two chatted for about a stick of incense in the main hall, and then Xu Yubai left. Yu Yunxuan originally planned to give Xu Yubai one as a gift, but Xu Yubai refused.
Xu Yubai was led out by the servant, and unexpectedly met Xiao Yunchen who had just returned in front of the main hall.
When Xiao Yunchen saw Xu Yubai actually entering the palace, the fire of anger in his heart was burning, but he pretended to be calm on his face. That woman Yu Yunxuan actually turned a deaf ear to his words!
"Why are Mr. Xu here?"
"I have met the regent!" Xu Yubai cupped his hands and said, "I just came to visit Princess Yunxuan. I know that her injury is no longer serious, so I can say goodbye with peace of mind."
"Princess Yunxuan is my king's concubine. She and Mr. Xu seem to be just ordinary friends who have only met a few times. Mr. Xu seems to be too attentive, right?"
Xiao Yunchen's words were thorny and made people feel uncomfortable. Even though Xu Yubai usually had a good temper, he could no longer smile at this moment.
"What does the prince mean by this? Is it wrong for me to care about my friends?"
Xiao Yunchen stared at Xu Yubai's eyes and said coldly: "I will tell you clearly, I don't want you to come to the princess again in the future, or even meet her again. The rumors from the outside world are already ugly enough, I
The king doesn’t want to make the princess’ reputation worse!”
"Oh, Your Majesty, do you not want me to ruin the reputation of the princess, or is it your face, Your Majesty?" Xu Yubai finally turned cold.
