"I...I, how do I know."
When Duan Ruoge heard this question, he felt guilty clearly on his face, and he was a little stumbling when he spoke.
Seeing Yun Hanqing's clear eyes that seemed to know everything, she didn't dare to say any other warnings, so she just said a bluff.
"What kind of identity do you have that you dare to question me?"
Then he took the palace maid into the carriage and returned to the palace without looking back.
Yun Hanqing thought of the incident related to the prince, and leaned on the back of the chair with his forehead on his hands, feeling a little headache.
After returning from Shangshu Mansion that day, Feng Liuyun went to investigate the last battle with Bei Ming. Before finding out the facts, he also took the initiative to speak for Duan Xuanyi in the court.
Unexpectedly, the fact was so unexpected.
Originally, the leaders of Beiming Kingdom had no intention of fighting and wanted to surrender and ask for peace from Linyue Kingdom.
But Duan Xuanyi didn't know why, so he chased after the leader to kill him, aroused his anger, and became bloody. In the end, both sides suffered losses.
All the evidence to prove the facts was placed in front of Yun Hanqing, and she could not tolerate disbelief.
"Do you want to hide it?"
Feng Liuyun had asked for her opinion at that time.
When this incident was revealed, it was a huge blow to Duan Xuanyi's reputation.
After all, Yun Hanqing loved Duan Xuanyi, so when things were revealed, Feng Liuyun still asked for her opinion.
"No, report it to the emperor. Our palace will accept any punishment."
Since Yun Hanqing knew the truth, it was impossible to bury it for him.
If she hid them for him, how would she explain those soldiers who died in vain?
Yun Hanqing is not the kind of person who can't see clearly what is right and wrong.
Feng Liuyun handed the evidence to the emperor.
Just like the implicit meaning of what Yun Hanqing said to Duan Ruoge today, Duan Xuanyi's doing such a thing had something to do with her.
Before setting off for the expedition, Duan Ruoge deliberately blocked the city gate, found the leader Duan Xuanyi, and said that he hated the leader of Beiming Kingdom.
Because it was he who made the request for marriage, and he would be the one to marry if successful.
Duan Ruoge believed that no one was worthy of her except the Imperial Master, so naturally she felt disgusted with the people who coveted her, so she coquettishly insisted that Duan Xuanyi come back with the head of the enemy leader.
Duan Xuanyi agreed.
Neither of them hid that day. Many people saw this scene. Although some died in the war, some still knew the truth.
After the matter was reported, the court discussed Prince Xuan's punishment for a long time.
Although he was not greedy for credit, he disregarded tactics and made decisions for his own selfish desires, causing many soldiers to die innocently. It is really hateful.
But this matter has something to do with the princess, and the emperor is a partial person.
He said that he had done meritorious service and sacrificed his life for the country, so he didn't care about it so much and just muddled through it.
The "culprit" was not punished, and Duan Ruoge, the hidden one, was certainly fine.
After knowing the outcome of the matter, Yun Hanqing let out a long sigh.
After all, the palace was not implicated but still took advantage of it. She felt really bad about it, so she secretly found someone to send more pensions to the soldiers who died in the battle.
This incident made Yun Hanqing slowly begin to doubt whether Duan Xuanyi was acting like his true self.
Of course, Feng Liuyun was willing to add fuel to the flames of her love rival. Even if it was disgraceful, he still told her a lot of bad things that Duan Xuanyi had done, ruining Duan Xuanyi's image in her heart.
Unexpectedly, the Imperial Master, who looked so upright and upright on the outside, actually began to speak ill of people behind his back.
After these days, with Feng Liuyun giving hints from time to time, she somewhat saw through Duan Xuanyi's true face.
For example, in order to prevent the princess from getting married, he took the initiative to ask for a war, but was packaged into going out on his own so that she could take care of the palace.
Yun Hanqing was shocked when he first heard about this, but then he became confused again.
Until now, she was still confused about her feelings for Duan Xuanyi, but no matter what, she would not abandon Duan Xuanyi and choose the national master Fengliuyun.
In those days in the palace, Duan Xuanyi still remembered his good deeds regardless of his heart.
After so much time has passed, and after knowing many unknown past events, Yun Hanqing's feelings for Duan Xuanyi have weakened a lot.
She no longer had the thought of committing suicide for her love, and taking care of Prince Xuan's only heir for the rest of her life was her last thought.
As for Feng Liuyun's entanglement, she thought that the high-ranking National Master would leave Linyue Kingdom and return to the valley to practice sooner or later. It should be new to her for a while, and when the time comes, he would figure it out and let it go.
Yun Hanqing calmed down and stayed in the palace quietly waiting to be bored.
But she didn't expect that in her lifetime, she would not wait to be bored by the Imperial Master, but would wait until her late husband came back.
Duan Xuanyi came back in an extremely dilapidated bullock cart. His condition was not very good, and he was completely different from the straight-looking and tall figure he had before.
There was a deep scar on his face, which looked extremely terrifying.
There is a knife mark that almost penetrates the left arm, and the bones can be seen. This arm is almost useless.
His legs were also seriously injured. It is said that the leg bones were shattered when they collided with the stone wall when he fell off the cliff.
After falling from such a high cliff, it was lucky to be able to survive, and the wounds on the body were also normal.
Duan Xuanyi was rescued by an Orion. The conditions of the Orion in the mountains were not good, and his injured legs were not treated well.
Now that he has returned to the palace, even if he finds the palace doctor, there is nothing he can do because it takes too long, and his legs cannot be saved.
He was high-spirited before the war, and he was the dream man of many girls. Duan Xuanyi found it difficult to accept his current appearance.
Especially when Duan Ruoge heard the news of his death, Duan Ruoge didn't even come to the palace to visit him. His only visit was to warn the princess, Duan Xuanyi began to become extremely gloomy.
"Hanqing, you won't dislike me, right?"
Duan Xuanyi sat in a specially customized wooden wheelchair, his hand covering Yun Hanqing's hand, his eyes fragile and gloomy.
Yun Hanqing didn't know what it felt like, but when she saw his low self-esteem, which was completely different from before, her heart sank suddenly. The originally diluted feelings turned into a strong feeling of distress and guilt at this moment.
She put her hand on Duan Xuanyi's hand and her voice was softer than ever.
"My lord, I will not despise you. When I was like that in the past, you did not despise me and pulled me out step by step. From now on, it is my turn to hold your hand."
When Yun Hanqing said the first sentence, Duan Xuanyi's gloomy eyes disappeared, but when he heard the next sentence, a very faint feeling of guilt flashed through his heart.
"From now on, I will treat you sincerely, just the two of us."
Duan Xuanyi coughed twice and held her hand to assure her.
