Xie Yao didn't know why her grandfather asked this, so she nodded subconsciously, "It's cured."
General Xie's face suddenly darkened, and he threw the teacup in his hand, "Weak!"
Xie Yao was frightened and was a little unsure of what her grandfather meant. Was it because she had treated Shangguan Yue?
"She wrongfully accused you of having a miscarriage and pushed her, and she wanted to kill you, but you saved her? You should have ended her life with a sword!" Old General Xie was very emotional.
Xie Yao determined the reason for her grandfather's anger and immediately stepped forward to comfort her, "Grandpa, there is no need to be angry. I am treating her because she does not pose any threat to me now and can still be used by me."
Immediately afterwards, she told the story about Emperor Zhaochu's decree to move the palace, "I treated her and used the child in her belly as a bargaining chip, so my father temporarily gave up on moving the palace."
"So, Shangguan Yue not only needs to be treated, but also needs to be treated for a long time. As long as the treatment continues, my father will not easily defeat the Donghou Mansion."
After listening to Old General Xie, the anger in his heart completely dissipated, and his old eyes were filled with gentleness and worry, "Have you ever confronted the Emperor in person?"
Xie Yao shook her head, "Father didn't see me, he just asked Eunuch Liu to reveal the information to me."
"No?" General Xie frowned instead. After a pause, his expression changed and became gentle again, "By the way, I ordered the chef to prepare the meal. They have no idea what you mean by plain. You
Now let’s go and see what food can be saved. We won’t let them continue cooking the rest.”
Xie Yao raised her eyes and glanced at her grandfather, "Yes, I'll go there now."
After saying that, she stood up and walked out quickly.
General Xie turned around and looked at Xie Yao's back. After confirming that Xie Yao had really left, he immediately waved to Mo Li.
Li Qiye was a little strange, thinking that the old general was repeating his old tricks, "Old general, why did you drive the princess away again?"
Old General Xie's face darkened, his old eyes full of vicissitudes of life were solemn, "Send the order and transfer everyone back to the capital."
Li Li was shocked, "Old General, they managed to leave the capital safely according to your plan. If you ask them to come back now, it will be harder to get out of the city than to reach the sky! Why are you doing this?"
"The plan has changed. We cannot just retreat and tolerate it. When necessary, we must take action or even fight back!" General Xie's eyes suddenly became sharp.
"Counterattack?" Li Li was even more surprised, because the old general had thought about the previous strategy for a long time and had implemented it for a long time. How could it suddenly change?
General Xie saw Mo Li's doubts, but had no intention of directly explaining his doubts. His voice was low and old, "I have to admit that we are all old. The old ones have their edges smoothed away, have lost their fighting spirit, and are exhausted."
Hot-blooded."
"If we were faced with this situation thirty years ago, would you still follow me and act like a turtle without saying a word?"
When Li Li heard this wording, he quickly persuaded, "You can't say that! You dispersed all the people and money out of the capital for future plans and for everyone! In the current situation, it is safest to leave the capital.
Yes! Otherwise, they will definitely be implicated by us."
"The whole world is not the king's land, and the shores of the land are not the king's ministers! If we move them all out of the capital, can we live a peaceful life?" Old General Xie began to feel a little excited.
Li Qiye was silent. The old general also mentioned this issue at that time, but it would be better outside than in the capital.
General Xie looked at Mo Li with solemn eyes, "You know what happened in the palace yesterday, and you also know that Yao'er was trapped in Luohua Palace, but do you know what the first thing she did after she escaped?"
"It was against her principles to treat Shangguan Yue, the person who framed her and wanted to kill her! Because she was dissatisfied with the emperor's order to move the palace, and she wanted to fight! She wanted to fight against the king of a country!"
"Guess, did she succeed?" At this point, General Xie had tears in his eyes, and he tried not to shed them.
Mo Li's heart trembled when he heard this.
The princess actually wanted Emperor Zhaochu to take back his life for the sake of moving the palace. This is such a terrifying thing!
If Long Yan is angered, no one can escape safely, and may even die directly!
The princess actually rushed and fought regardless of her life!
"Princess, she...succeeded?" Mo Li understood. He already had the answer when he saw Xie Yao appearing in Pingdong Hou Mansion safe and sound, but because the answer was too unbelievable, he hesitated.
"That's right! She succeeded!" General Xie suddenly shouted, his voice firm and inspiring.
Li Qiye's fists clenched instantly.
Old General Xie's mood gradually calmed down, and his expression returned to sternness, "She has no official position, no martial arts, no backer, no honor guard, and she is also a woman with no strength! She is such a brave woman.
, witty and decisive, using her wisdom and medical skills to save us from moving!"
"What about us? We don't have any official positions or martial arts skills! I even have secret guards, but what have I done? I just said that we are all cowards, is that wrong? She can do this, and we have
What qualifications and reasons do you have to be a coward! And what qualifications and reasons do you have for not giving it a try!"
After listening to this, Li Li clenched his fists and felt his blood boiling. Something in his heart that had been dormant for many years was suddenly aroused and was developing rapidly.
"I obey my orders. I will immediately give the old general's orders and ensure that the mission is completed!" He shouted confidently and immediately turned around to make arrangements.
Old General Xie watched Mo Li leave, his old eyes filled with indescribable light, and then turned to the sun that had just risen in the sky.
The dazzling sunlight wanted to make him unable to open his eyes, but as long as he squinted, he could still see through the dazzling sunlight.
After Xie Yao left, she walked straight to the kitchen without stopping.
She knew that her grandfather deliberately sent her away.
But it doesn't matter, her grandfather will never harm her after all. Since her grandfather wants to hide it from her, just hide it over there.
The dishes prepared by the kitchen were very simple and light. She picked them randomly, but only two dishes did not meet the requirements.
After giving her instructions, she left directly without staying in the kitchen.
On the way back to her grandfather's yard, she saw two stewards talking sadly together from a distance, surrounded by things needed for funerals.
She had some doubts in her heart, so she walked over.
Before I even got close, I heard one of the tall stewards say: "What's happening to these funeral shops in the capital? They won't even sell a single white lantern to us! Are their businesses so good?"
"Like you, I traveled all over the capital and couldn't even buy a single mourning dress. I suspect someone is targeting us, otherwise it would be impossible for the entire capital to not sell to us." The short steward next to him replied.
"What's going on?" Xie Yao heard their discussion, her expression slightly condensed, and she asked directly.
When they saw it was Princess Han, they quickly bowed and saluted.
"What Princess Huihan said, the servants are talking about. The funeral parlors in the capital seem to be a little strange these past two days. As soon as they heard that we are from the Pingdong Marquis Mansion, they didn't sell anything." The tall steward replied.
"Yes! At first, I could pretend that I wasn't from Pingdonghou Mansion and could buy a few things, but they soon found out and I couldn't buy anymore." The short steward also looked depressed.
said.
Xie Yao's eyes immediately turned cold, "You have visited all the funeral shops in the capital, are they all like this?"
