The patriarch of the Xie clan selfishly used Taoist Priest Qiongshan to taint his younger brother's fate, and because he was jealous of his younger brother Xian Neng, he deliberately asked his wife to use internal tactics to ruin his reputation. In a very short period of time, the news spread throughout the streets and alleys of Kyoto.
The uproar naturally spread to He Ya's ears.
There are no white people coming and going in the Four Gentlemen Tower. It is the favorite gathering place for the literati and elegant guests in Kyoto.
He Ya discovered that Xie Miaoxuan actually had a good reputation among these literati.
Not afraid of power, he would rather break up with his family just to seek justice.
It did give him a serious reputation boost.
What Xie Miaoxuan saw when he came in was He Ya holding a teacup and listening to the gossip going on in the building with great interest.
Facing those charming eyes, Xie Miaoxuan was stunned for a moment. She thought she was pretty good-looking, and she had seen noble and handsome men like Xie Yuanju and coquettish young men like Li Ge, so she should have been used to beauties.
But with He Ya, she could refresh her understanding of beauty time and time again.
It is obvious that her facial features can only be described as good when viewed individually, but when combined together, they have an indescribable and breathtaking charm.
Xie Miaoxuan always appreciates beautiful things.
She cupped her hands towards He Ya, who had been waiting for a long time.
"I'm late checking my grandmother's dowry list with Mrs. Xie."
"You didn't keep the beauty waiting too long, did you?"
He Ya glanced at her lazily and said teasingly, "Your little mouth must be covered with honey."
She leaned against the pillow, "I have done what I promised. When will the lady promise me?"
That day, when he saw Xie Miaoxuan in the Yage on the street, he was just a girl but could be followed and called his lord, and He Ya fell in love with her.
He Ya relied on charm and charm, so it was not difficult for her to find out the details of Xie Miaoxuan.
After going through several rounds and finding out that she was just coming to Kyoto for the first time, but had repeatedly toyed with the Xie clan leader, she knew that Xie Miaoxuan was a pretender, so she found an opportunity to secretly contact her and wanted to cooperate with him.
At that time, Xie Miaoxuan was still wary of her intentions.
But when she said that as long as she could help Xie Miaoxuan first to show her sincerity, Xie Miaoxuan readily agreed to her request for cooperation.
This kind of cooperation in which one's own share is completed first is naturally not inappropriate for Xie Miaoxuan.
Xie Miaoxuan's biggest difficulty is that she doesn't have enough connections in Kyoto. If Xie Yuan is determined to unite the courtiers against her, she has a shallow foundation in Kyoto, and Qinglong will definitely not be able to defeat the local snakes.
And she can help Xie Miaoxuan ignore the powerful people in Kyoto and use their power to suppress others.
Xie Miaoxuan helped her rescue Aunt Fang.
Today, it is time for Xie Miaoxuan to fulfill his promise.
Xie Miaoxuan vowed, raised his head and drank the wine from the glass, "My people have visited the Taiwei's mansion several times and have found the place where Aunt Fang is hidden. We can bring her out only when the night is late."
Seeing that she went straight to the topic without any hesitation, He Ya couldn't help but sit up straight, tears welling up in her eyes for a moment.
"Is this true?"
"A certain person never utters wild words."
The girl's eyes were full of seriousness.
He Ya thought that she would be able to take Aunt Fang back in a few hours. She clenched her fists and the dull pain in her heart gradually became sharper and began to devour her nerves.
Is she really going to be free?
The dream I've been dreaming about for many years is about to come true, but when it comes to an end, it turns out to be a bit of a distorted illusion.
He Ya was no longer in the mood to talk or laugh, and Xie Miaoxuan didn't bother her, just sitting there pouring and drinking.
Listening to the noisy chatter inside the Four Gentlemen Building, it was clear that there was a lot of people, but suddenly it seemed that the private room here was even quieter.
Xie Miaoxuan smiled and looked at Xie Yuanju, who was almost integrated into the background wall.
"Come and drink together."
I don’t know where to start, but Xie Yuanju mastered the role of the hidden guard extremely well.
When Xie Miaoxuan is not paying attention, he almost forgets that there is such a person beside him.
When Xie Yuanju heard Xie Miaoxuan mentioning him, he didn't hesitate. He sat next to her very naturally, picked up the new wine that Xie Miaoxuan poured and drank it in one gulp.
He Ya suddenly spoke in a low voice, "I don't think the person next to the girl is someone who follows people."
Standing alone in the sky, the occasional pressure on her body was even more terrifying than that of her own father, the lieutenant.
Hearing this, Xie Miaoxuan was stunned.
The first emotion that came to her heart was that she felt inexplicably unhappy, but the next moment she smiled.
"Thank you so much for your advice, Madam. However, I would also like to advise you not to say this kind of thing in the future. If I hadn't understood that you didn't mean to slander, and misunderstood you, I would have just treated you as sowing discord."
"Yuanju is my husband. Although he is not good at words, he is not the kind of person you say. As a wife, I still love him very much, and I also protect my shortcomings."
He Ya suddenly raised her head and looked at Xie Yuanju, her eyes flickered a few times, and her tone was a little incomprehensible, "I'm rude, I thought it was rumored in the capital that the husband who always accompanied the girl around was just a temporary measure. No. It occurred to me that the girl really planned to bring the person into the house."
He Ya admitted her mistake quickly, and Xie Miaoxuan did not take her words to heart.
Instead, he asked, "I wonder what Ya Niang plans to do in the future?"
"Huh?" He Ya seemed a little confused.
"I will leave for the Southland in the near future. Maybe you and I will meet again in the future. If you are willing, why not come with me to the Southland and start a new life there."
At the beginning of their cooperation, He Ya informed Xie Miaoxuan about her situation.
Although she only said a few words, Xie Miaoxuan guessed that she was the daughter of the Taiwei Mansion, and her life was extremely uncomfortable.
Even the few times he came into contact with her, his eyebrows rarely relaxed.
The most important thing is that this time Li Ge was asked to help rescue people in Taiwei's mansion.
With his Qinggong and ghost skills, he is able to avoid being noticed by others.
But it was also because he entrusted this matter to Li Ge.
She got shocking news.
Li Ge didn't know where he found out that He Ya was actually the imperial concubine in the palace.
As a noble concubine, she appeared in Shi Chong's mansion and became his concubine.
There is a message behind this.
That is, the emperor may have passed away, but the news has not yet been made known to everyone.
And He Ya obviously didn't want to join forces with the Taiwei, otherwise she wouldn't have approached her to cooperate in rescuing her aunt.
It seems that she followed Shi Chong not what she wanted in her heart.
In this case, it is better to send the Buddha to the west than to take the person to the south. Then with a little help from her, she can completely escape from the quagmire of Kyoto and start a new life.
