General Xie saw the shock in Xie Yao's eyes and calmly said, "Don't worry. After all, King Han is the emperor's son. As long as you leave King Han, his life will not be in danger. It's just..."
Halfway through his words, he couldn't speak anymore.
Because he could see that Xie Yao was attracted to Chu Han, but now she wanted to separate...
Xie Yao had completely withdrawn her mind at this time, calmed down the shock in her heart, her eyes were firm and patient, and she swallowed everything in her heart.
"Grandpa, don't worry, I will leave King Han."
She could hear her own voice, which was very soft and faint, but when she actually said it, it was as heavy as a mountain, as if it could completely crush her at any time!
No one knows how heavy and reluctant she felt when she said these words!
When General Xie heard what Xie Yao said, he suddenly became speechless.
For some reason, a pair of old eyes suddenly filled with tears, and he glanced at Xie Yao. He didn't want Xie Yao to see it and be sad, so he quickly turned his head away.
After taking a few deep breaths, I suppressed the tears in my eyes.
"Don't worry, I have a way to rescue Wen Wu. At that time, the three of us will completely leave here and leave the capital." Old General Xie changed the subject.
Xie Yao understood what her grandfather meant. She thought about what she saw and heard when she entered the palace today, especially when she went to the secret prison.
He traveled a long distance. Moreover, he was imprisoned by the emperor in a secret prison in the palace. It was heavily guarded and easy to defend but difficult to attack."
"If grandpa wants to rescue my brother, he must make a careful plan."
Old General Xie's eyes were deep and as sharp as an eagle's, as if he could see through everything, "Don't worry, I have a way."
Seeing that his grandfather was so confident, Xie Yao didn't ask any more questions.
She just felt her head was a little heavy. She had received a lot of news throughout the day, and it seemed that even her thinking had become a little slow.
She must go back and sort out everything carefully!
After all, every matter and every decision is important!
…
It was getting late, the sun was heading west, and the entire capital city was shrouded in the setting sun, giving it a faint golden-red glow.
Chu Han rode back from the city gate on horseback. The journey was dusty, with a faint but unignorable joy in the corners of his eyes and brows.
He gave up the carriage and made a special trip back on horseback so that he could return to Beijing earlier.
After entering the capital, he did not return home immediately, but went to Wanghai Tower.
Last time, Xie Yao was quite satisfied with the taste of Wanghailou's food. It's been a few days, and it's time for Xie Yao to have a change of taste.
Wanghailou has many dishes, and they all taste good.
When the waiter at Wanghailou saw Prince Han arriving in person, he was immediately startled. He was speechless and said, "Han... I have met His Highness Prince Han."
Seeing this, the shopkeeper ran over quickly and said, "I have met His Highness King Han. I am the shopkeeper here. I wonder what King Han has ordered?"
"This king is here to have a meal." Chu Han said.
"Wang Wang, please come upstairs. I've prepared a box for you." The shopkeeper immediately turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation.
"No need, cook some dishes for me, and I will go back to my house for dinner." Chu Han said and gave out the names of several dishes.
The shopkeeper hurriedly said, "King Han, I will order people to prepare it later!"
"Come here, serve tea to King Han!" The shopkeeper greeted again and went to the kitchen to give instructions.
Soon, the food was ready, and was served by the shopkeeper's hands and handed into Chu Han's hands, "King Han, please use it slowly. If you are not satisfied with it, just send a servant over, don't bother Han."
Wang Dajia."
Chu Han nodded slightly, turned around and walked out of Wanghai Tower.
Turning on the horse, holding the reins in one hand and the food box in the other, happiness filled the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
Xie Yao will definitely be happy when she sees these meals.
In order to prevent the food in the food box from spilling, he held the food box very steadily.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the mansion, he asked the concierge: "Where is the princess? Is she back?"
When the concierge saw the prince returning, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Let me tell you that the princess has returned from the palace. Later, someone from the Pingdong Hou Mansion invited the princess over and said that Old General Xie was back."
Just as Chu Han was about to step into the house, he paused when he heard this and his black eyes darkened.
"Take the food box to the kitchen." He handed the food box to the concierge, then turned around and mounted his horse, galloping towards Pingdong Hou Mansion.
"yes!"
As the sun sets, there are fewer pedestrians on the street, and most of them are in a hurry, heading home.
Chu Han ran all the way and arrived at Pingdong Hou Mansion in a short time.
From a distance, he saw Xie Yao, who had just come out of Pingdong Hou Mansion and planned to get on the carriage and leave.
He immediately exerted force on his legs, increased the horse's speed by a few points, and headed towards Xie Yao.
Hearing the sound of horse hoofbeats, Xie Yao turned her head and saw Chu Han running towards her. She felt sad thinking about what she had just talked to her grandfather.
All along, Emperor Zhaochu, the Crown Princess, and even Chu Rui wanted her to reconcile with Chu Han, thinking that she was trying to avoid danger and looking for a big tree that could provide shade.
, then he would stalk Chu Han!
Although she had always planned to make peace with Chu Han at that time, she had to admit that their assumption was valid and that Princess Han's identity could indeed bring her a certain degree of security.
But now, her identity as Princess Han will bring danger to Chu Han, and it is a fatal danger.
What she wants to do is still to reconcile.
It's just that she was willing to make peace with her at the beginning, and she couldn't wait.
Now……
Seeing that Chu Han was already in front of her, she put away all the thoughts in her heart and buried them somewhere deep in her heart.
Then, she smiled at Chu Han, her eyes soft, "Why are you here?"
Chu Han's body was covered with dust. He must have rushed over immediately after knowing that he had returned to Pingdong Hou Mansion.
Chu Han did not answer immediately. He took a deep look at Xie Yao first. Seeing that Xie Yao's eyes were intact, he slowly spoke and asked in a gentle voice: "Old General Xie is back?"
"Yes. My grandfather left Beijing a lot more haggard this time." Xie Yao's face darkened, looking a little worried.
"Old General Xie also knows Xie..." As soon as Chu Han opened his mouth, he thought it was inappropriate to talk about Xie Wenwu here, so he said: "Let's get on the carriage first."
"Okay." Xie Yao nodded.
The two of them got on the carriage and headed towards Prince Han's Mansion.
In the carriage, Chu Han said seriously: "How is General Xie doing? If it is inconvenient for you, I will ask an imperial doctor to come over and treat General Xie."
"That's not necessary. Grandpa is just a little tired. He didn't rest well along the way and didn't eat well, which is why he is haggard. Now he has returned to Beijing and will recover after resting in the mansion for a while." Xie Yao declined Chu Han's offer.
He suggested, "Besides, if grandpa really needs to take medicine, I can just come over."
