023 Good man

Murong Xueyan didn't take a few steps. Xu Su, the waiter who led her before, rushed over and asked with concern, "I haven't seen the princess for half a day, but I'm lost?"

"My father-in-law walked so fast that I couldn't keep up." Murong Xue smiled lightly and pretended to be inadvertent and pointed to where he had just heard the dialogue between Nangong Yi and Yunfei. "What palace is that? Is it so luxurious from a distance?"

"It's the Yunfei's Ob�yun Palace," Xu Su knew everything he knew and talked about it endlessly. "Since the Yunfei's maiden's joy, the emperor has been very happy. He ordered someone to rebuild the Yunyun Palace again, making it more luxurious than before."

"Does the emperor have many children?" Murong Xueyan's question was purely curious.

"There are two Jieyu in the harem who gave birth to a princess, and the Empress Yunfei was the first to be pregnant with a dragon. If the prince is born..." He shook his head and smiled, realizing that he had said too much.

Unconsciously, the Changxin Palace where the Empress Dowager was located jumped into sight. In front of Changxin Palace, two rows of towering pines and cypresses are arranged in an orderly manner, adding some coolness to the hot summer. When I raised my eyes, I saw the golden splendor, the palace was towering, and the flying eaves around were shining in the sun.

When the guard at the door of the palace saw Murong Xueyan, he hurriedly reported: "Princess Ping An has arrived--"

Immediately, the empress dowager followed the front-faced father-in-law to greet her and took Murong Xueyan into the Changxin Palace.

"See the Empress Dowager." Murong Xueyan bowed down.

"Get up." The Empress Dowager was pleasant and ordered the Duke of Lu to give her a seat.

"Thanks to the wrong love of the Empress Dowager, Xue Yan is here to thank you today." After Murong Xueyan sat down, she said directly about her intention.

The Empress Dowager's eyes were stagnant, but she asked Murong Xueyan an unexpected question: "I heard that the Linglong jade pendant was placed in the new house on the day of King Jing's wedding, but then it disappeared?"

It's the exquisite jade pendant again! Murong Xueyan simply wanted to tell the world that the jade pendant was in the hands of Yunfei! On the surface, I had to bow my head and ask respectfully, "Empress Dowager, Xue Yan dared to ask, where did this exquisite jade pendant come from and why is it so important?"

"This exquisite jade pendant was given by the former emperor when Nangong Yu, the father of King Jing and the former general of Zhenguo, and Princess Zhaoyang got married." The Empress Dowager said the origin of the jade pendant and asked, "Xueyan, now everyone believes that you stole the exquisite jade pendant on the night of the wedding. Tell the Ai family honestly, is the jade pendant in your hand?"

"Xue Yan guaranteed her life that she absolutely did not steal the jade pendant on the wedding night." Murong Xueyan raised her palm and promised.

"I believe that you will never covet a piece of jade with your background." The Empress Dowager smiled kindly, "Go down, I'm sorry for my family. When you have time, remember to come to Ai's house and talk to Ai's house about the new things outside the palace.

"Yes." Murong Xueyan bowed and left.

When she returned to the prime minister's house, she was still thinking about what she had seen and heard in the palace. The matter between Nangong Yi and Yunfei was fine for her. She didn't want to expose it, but... At the thought that she had carried the blame for so long, she was not angry. Moreover, when she thinks of the appearance of Nangong Yi and Yunfei, she is full of discomfort... What's the matter?

When she was bored, she wrote and studied ink and condensed her mind to paint. The pen peak swam, like clouds and flowing water going back and forth on the paper. In less than half an hour, the first painting of her life had begun to take shape. When Jinxin sent tea, at first sight of the painting, I couldn't help but be shocked: "Miss, why did you draw a portrait of King Jing?"

"King Jing?" Murong Xueyan herself was also surprised and inexplicably. Taking a closer look at the man in this painting, the sword eyebrows and stars, the heavenly court is full and magnificent, not like Nangong Yi? How could this happen... As soon as she learned to draw in this era, the first work would be him? It's like... Just like when a baby learns to speak, the first cry is "Mom"! What's good about him? Is it worth it? It's a magic barrier. It's probably a magic barrier. It's too late for her to hate him!

"Miss, the Prime Minister said he had something to ask you. Please go to the study immediately!" Xiurong came in a panic.

"What's the matter? Look at your whirring look. You bumped into the lady carefully!" Jin Xin frowned and scolded.

"Ouch, stop bickering. Go to the study!" Murong Xueyan put the pen away, got up and rushed to the study.

"Xueer, Dad has something to ask you." Murong Rui's expression was very solemn.

Murong Xueyan asked solemnly, "What's the matter? Dad just ask."

"Recently, it has been rumored that you stole the exquisite jade pendant he put in the room on the wedding night with King Jing. Is there such a problem?" Murong Rui asked.

"No, I have never seen this." Murong Xueyan wanted to say that she knew the whereabouts of the jade pendant, but she was afraid that her father would be worried, so she had to be quiet.

"Xue'er, Dad believes that you are not the kind of person who is greedy for small profits. It's just that there has been a lot of noise inside and outside the government recently, Dad..."

"These gossips make my father very distressed, don't they?" Murong Xueyan continued understandingly and said, "Don't worry, Dad, rumors stop at the wise man, and his daughter can quickly think of a way to calm down the rumors."

Looking at her father's frosty old face with a worried expression, Murong Xueyan felt guilty. In order to make her father no longer bear the pressure brought by gossip, she decided--

Go to Nangongyi!

After lunch, Murong Xueyan tidied up a little and set off to Jingwang Mansion. Because of the important matter, she did not bring Jinxin and Xiurong.

Nangong Yi just came back from the palace and was sitting in the study reading military books. His face was flat and clear, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

Nangong Ming, the housekeeper, took Murong Xueyan to Nangongyi's study and reported: "Your Majesty, Miss Murong is asking for a meeting."

"Are you looking for me?" He raised his eyes and couldn't see any emotion in his eyes.

"Yes." Murong Xueyan looked around and saw that there was no subordinate. Fang said, "I already know the whereabouts of the Linglong jade pendant."

"Do you know?" Nangong Yi looked at Murong Xueyan in disbelief. Then tell me, where is the jade pendant now?

"It's in the hands of the Empress Yunfei." Murong Xueyan took a deep breath and answered clearly.

"You? ..." Nangong Yi looked at her in horror. "Huo" stood up, and there were huge waves in his dark pupils. "How did you know that?"

"I accidentally bumped into it." Murong Xueyan didn't hide anything. "In the backyard of the Yunyun Palace, you are together."

Nangong Yi got up and said in a tight tone, "How much do you know?"

"What's so good about that cloud? It's worth it when you eat the bowl and think about the pot? You won't feel that you have been too much for letting me take the blame for so long?

"Hold on, don't say that Yun'er is wrong!" Nangong Yi's eyes instantly dropped to zero.

"I said hers is not? If I had the intention, I would have told you to the Empress Dowager and the emperor, and I would still stand here in front of you and say?!" Murong Xueyan was angry from her heart and scolded, "This is called a dog biting Lv Dongbin. I don't know the hearts of good people!"

"Can you... guarantee that you will never say it?" Nangong Yi looked at Murong Xueyan in surprise.

"Can!" Murong Xueyan patted her chest and promised.

"Say, what conditions do you want?" Nangong Yi approached her, looked at her, and said headlessly, "You want me to marry you..."

"..." Murong Xueyan almost hit the wall. Narcissism, absolute narcissism. Isn't it just that he is still eye-catching, and he really thinks that he is the reincarnation of Pan An and Song Yu's rebirth? Will all women jump on it when they see it? Please, the last time she took the initiative to give her arms was because the effect of ** was good? ......

"Don't worry, I will never covet your beauty." Murong Xueyan suppressed her smile and said, "You just need to tell the world that the exquisite jade pendant has been recovered, and its loss has nothing to do with Princess Ping An. Give me back my innocence, that's it."

"Is that all?" Nangong Yi still can't trust her completely.

"I swear, if I tell half a word about you and Yunfei, ask me to choke to eat to death, walk to death, and smoke to death in the toilet, I will be angry to death if I really can't die!"

"I'm not the imperial concubine, and I'm not your princess. I can't be jealous of your Yun'er. What's the benefit to me by exposing your business?" Murong Xueyan analyzed it in an orderly manner.

"Your Majesty, here comes the tea." Nangong Ming's voice surprised the two people in the study.

Murong Xueyan looked back at him and judged him - what did he hear? Do you know anything?

"Uncle Ming, go down." Nangong Yi obviously trusted the housekeeper who had watched him grow up since he was a child, and did not ask anything.

After Nangong Ming retreated, there were only Nangong Yi and Murong Xueyan left in the study. The dull atmosphere made Murong Xueyan feel like a big stone in her heart.

For a long time, after careful consideration, Nangong Yi said, "Murong Xueyan, I just believe you once. Remember, if you dare to reveal half a word..."

"Don't dare, don't dare, don't lend me ten guts!" Murong Xueyan hurriedly continued, "I'll go back to the house first. You go ahead."

The moon was dark and the wind was high. A thunderstorm split a large area of dark clouds, and the pouring rain suddenly fell.

Yunfei held the tea cup in her hand and stood by the window. She seemed to inadvertently ask, "Such heavy rain, I don't know where the emperor will go?"

"Hasn't the emperor been with the Empress Lan recently?" Hongyan replied casually.

"Yes, it's all at Lanfei's place..." Concubine Yun reluctantly bit her lip and gently stroked her unprotruding stomach.

"Madam, it's from outside the palace." It's the voice of Ogawako.

"What's the news?" Concubine Yun turned around.

"Yes..." Xiaochuanzi looked at the red silk and hesitated.

"It doesn't matter. Hongyan knows everything about this palace." Concubine Yun's words broke his concerns.

"The girl Murong Xueyan knew about you and the prince. And she threatened the prince with this and asked him to clarify the matter of the exquisite jade pendant.

"What?" Concubine Yun's hand was unstable. With a "bang", the tea cup fell to the ground and immediately fell into pieces, and the person was almost unsteady.

"Mother, don't panic. Now we have to think about dealing with that girl first." Hongqi hurriedly held up Concubine Yun.

"Yes." Concubine Yun settled down and thought about the countermeasures carefully.
