Duke Qi strode out of the Marquis Mansion with a gloomy face and frighteningly cold eyes.
The boy on the side also had an unhappy face, and he chased after him, whispering, "My lord, are we leaving like this?"
"What else?" Qi Guogong closed his eyes, his temples jumped a few times, and the veins on his neck were looming, "That person inside is Princess Gu'an, the aunt of the current emperor!"
"She's just a princess who married far away..."
Before the boy could finish his words, he was glared hard by the Duke of Qi beside him, and he immediately shut his mouth, not daring to say another word.
"I don't blame you for not knowing. I was not even born when Princess Gu'an was in her prime." Duke Qi exhaled and said in a low voice, "The only thing I know about her is my father's words."
"Back then, Princess Gu'an was very popular in the capital. Women rushed to imitate her dress, and every man wanted to marry her."
Duke Qi closed his eyes and recalled his father's words, "She was so conceited that no one could look down upon her. Even when she was in her twenties, even though the matchmakers had stepped on the threshold of the princess's mansion, she still refused to let go."
"Princess Gu'an is the most outstanding child of the Supreme Emperor. She is the only woman in Dayan who has achieved military exploits. My father once told me that when Princess Gu'an was young, she fought five barbarians and drove the northwest back to her own country. Home."
"The Supreme Emperor once said bluntly that if she were born as a man, the throne would belong to her."
Duke Qi's face became increasingly ugly, and he said in a deep voice, "Now that she has become the old queen of the northwest, covering the sky with one hand, and she has recognized Fang Xu as her daughter, how can I confront her head-on?"
"But... Your Majesty..." The boy was also in trouble, "We spent a lot of money to find out that the incident was the work of Marquis Yongcheng, so... let's forget it?"
"Forget it?" Qi Guogong squinted his eyes, his eyes dim and unclear, "Of course not!"
"I have no grievances with that Fang Xu. She has plotted against me. It is not my style to leave her alive!"
The boy's eyes lit up and he murmured, "Then let's..."
Duke Qi's eyes darkened and he whispered, "Come here."
-
The carriage swayed back and forth on the mountain road, and the people in the car swayed too.
Fang Xu was closing his eyes as usual, with no extra emotion on his face, like a fine person.
On the contrary, Fang Lan was restless, looking up at her from time to time.
"Sister." Fang Xu bit his molars, frowned slightly, and whispered, "Are there any flowers on my face?"
Fang Lan glared at her and whispered, "Are we just going to leave like this? Are you really not going to save that person?"
"No help." Fang Xu didn't move his eyelids and his tone was lazy.
Fang Lan was so anxious that he slapped his thigh and lowered his voice and said, "I told you, he is from the Zuo Ting Gang! You are a Marquis' wife and have lived in a house for a long time. Why do you want to get entangled with such a Jianghu gang?"
"It's just a little bleeding, but you won't die." Fang Xu straightened his lips and said warmly, "Sister, don't worry, the injury is not critical and is not life-threatening."
When Fang Lan heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and glared at her secretly, "If you didn't tell me earlier, you would have made me worry in vain!"
Fang Xu sighed softly and leaned on the soft cushion behind him, planning to take a nap.
Fang Lan thought about it carefully, but still felt a little worried. He raised his hand and poked her knee, and asked in a low voice, "Somehow, I'm always in a state of anxiety and can't settle down."
"Sister, maybe I want to have a baby." Fang Xu raised his eyelids and looked at her at leisure, "Have Brother Qi and Chang Ge settled down?"
"Xunfang is keeping an eye on us at home, so nothing can go wrong." Fang Lan lifted a corner of the curtain and looked out, "According to our speed, we can reach Qingling in four or five days."
"By the way, do you still remember that there was Granny Miaoxuan in Qingling County?"
"Grandma Miaoxuan..." Fang Xu frowned and sat up straight, looking confused, "Who is she?"
Fang Lan rolled his eyes at her and cursed in a low voice, "Sure enough, I can't expect you to remember anything!"
"When you were born, your father was still a minor local official. One day after dinner, a mother-in-law came to the door. She claimed to be a close disciple of Taoist Master Xuanzhen. She said that you were born in Ziwei and had many blessings. With the help of noble people, the whole family will be prosperous for three generations."
Fang Xu was confused when he heard this, with an inexplicable look on his face, "This is superstition."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Fang Lan slapped her and showed displeasure, "When my mother-in-law left, my father gave me a lot of money. In the end, within a year, he was promoted and became a doctor in the Ministry of Etiquette, so that our family could move. Enter the capital!"
"That was the death of the head doctor of the Ministry of Rites." Fang Xu said calmly while adjusting his robe, "I sent someone to check it out a long time ago. It was a friend of my father who sent a letter to the senior official, so I made an exception and accepted him. "
"This is superstition, it's your psychological work..."
Seeing Fang Lan's face getting darker and darker, Fang Xu suddenly swallowed the words that reached his lips.
Fang Lan glared at her angrily, gritted his teeth and said, "I only believe that my sister is Ziweixing, do you have any objections?"
Fang Xu held his chin, looking helpless, "I don't dare."
"Speaking of which, when my father was promoted to high school, he sent people to find Granny Miaoxuan, but to no avail. After so many years, I actually heard rumors about her again." Fang Lan patted her leg and pretended to be mysterious. , "Where do you think I heard it from?"
"In the palace."
Fang Lan's body paused.
"From the queen's mouth."
Fang Lan's heart suddenly broke.
"You...how did you know?" Fang Lan stroked his heart, his face full of shock.
"It's very simple." Fang Xu raised his eyes to look at her, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "Sister usually only goes in and out of the palace and the palace. If she is not the Queen, she can be me?"
Fang Lan was choked, and it took him a long time to react, and his face darkened.
"Sister, there's no need to be sad." Fang Xu held Mrs. Tang in his hands and couldn't help laughing, "Between you and me, I've always been the smarter one."
Fang Lan was speechless, but he agreed with her words from the bottom of his heart.
"Don't be such a talker!" Fang Lan straightened his expression and whispered in her ear, "I don't know why the guy above got so crazy that he accepted a fortune teller into the palace. That guy also called himself a disciple of Taoist Master Xuanzhen. "
Fang Xu raised his eyebrows, pursed his lips and smiled, "This Taoist Priest Xuanzhen is really full of talents all over the world."
"The blame lies with the fortune teller. According to what the Queen said, he danced around in the palace for a long time and muttered for an hour. Finally, he said that there was someone in the palace who was your destiny. The auspicious star shines high, which is beyond words."
Fang Lan's face was filled with resentment, and his voice was a little weaker, "That person said this while standing in front of the emperor. The emperor was furious and ordered several princes to return to the capital quickly to thoroughly investigate the person who was appointed by the emperor."
"Even the eldest prince who is far away in the fiefdom has been summoned!" Fang Lan shook his head, with a look of regret on his face, "Now everyone in the palace is in danger, and the queen and the queen are all stupid!"
The emperor's dead fish face was reflected in his mind. Fang Xu sneered and slowly said, "It's true that ugly people often do weird things."
Fang Lan took her hand and whispered, "The emperor is angry, and the princes are becoming more mature, which naturally arouses his suspicion."
"Our fourth prince Xie Li is on the side, if he is the king's order..."
A flash of light flashed in his mind, and Fang Xu's face turned pale, "No, this is a scam!" (End of Chapter)
