Chapter 483 Finally Let Her Go
Although he was extremely anxious, Helian Changjun finally felt relieved after hearing Xie Mubai's words.
He knew clearly that as long as this sickly prince nodded, it would mean that there would be absolutely no problem.
"Thank you, young lady!" Helian Changjun happily bowed to Ranqiu.
Ranqiu frowned slightly.
Although she felt a little uncomfortable, she still took Helian Changjun upstairs.
Seeing Helian Changjun walking away, Shen Wan looked at Xie Mubai.
She frowned and asked unhappily, "Do you really want to plead for that woman?"
Because of Wang Qi's injury, she hated Helian Bijun to the core.
Not kicking someone when they're down was already her greatest effort, but if she wanted to plead for that woman, she couldn't do it.
Doing so would undoubtedly be a betrayal to Wang Qi!
Xie Mubai glanced at the token in his hand, and a faint smile appeared on his sexy lips.
He did not deny it, his expression was very frank: "You can refuse Helian Changjun, but if that person comes to beg for mercy, will you refuse him?"
That person?
Shen Wan was slightly stunned, then came back to her senses.
"Will he come?" she asked uncertainly.
Although the situation in the harem was a mess, one had to admit that Xie Lian was indeed a resolute and upright man, and it was not easy to ask him to plead for favoritism.
Although Helian Bijun had done him a favor, he probably hadn't repaid that favor enough by now.
If you keep going back on me, I might as well pledge my love to you with my body!
"I will." Xie Mubai put away the smile on his face and frowned slightly, "Wan'er, it's true that I need the power of the Helian family, but he is not indispensable."
"It's just that that person seems to be particularly interested in Helian Bijun recently. If he uses his status as an elder to pressure me, I can't refuse."
Shen Wan absolutely believed this.
The book says that although the villain will do anything to achieve his goals, he is definitely a man who values friendship and loyalty.
It is precisely because of this that he had so many supporters when he started his rebellion.
But if Xie Lian spoke up, things would be different.
No matter what, he is his biological father!
As long as it doesn't touch his bottom line, Xie Mubai can't refuse.
A few light words made Shen Wan hear some different meanings.
"You mean... you're going to have a stepmother?" She asked cautiously, blinking her big watery eyes.
When Xie Mubai heard the word "stepmother", his face immediately darkened.
No matter how many women Xie Lian has, he doesn't want to interfere, but Helian Bijun is definitely not an option!
How could he, the Duke of Zhenguo, marry a woman from another country?
Seeing that the villain was angry, Shen Wan quickly stuck out her tongue. It seemed that she could not make such jokes in the future.
But Xie Mubai was right, Xie Lian came after all.
It was late and a cool breeze was blowing.
The Xie family father and son stood on the high city wall, looking at the rolling hills in the distance with cold eyes.
"Leaving only one road out of Lanyang City won't work." Xie Lian didn't mention Helian Bijun's incident, but said coldly, "If the enemy bombs the hilltop again, we'll repeat the same mistake."
Xie Mubai said calmly, "I've already ordered someone to secretly build a tunnel."
What Xie Lian could consider, he could naturally consider as well.
As the saying goes, a cunning rabbit has three burrows.
Although the villain is not a rabbit, he still knows to leave a way out for himself.
After hearing this, Xie Lian subconsciously looked at him for a while.
I have to say, this son is even better than he imagined.
He is old, really old.
Perhaps, revenge will depend entirely on these young people.
But how do I bring up Helian Bijun’s matter?
Xie Lian opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
"It's getting late, you should go back." Xie Mubai looked up at the cold moon in the night sky and said lightly.
Seeing that he was about to leave, Xie Lian couldn't help but get anxious.
He gritted his teeth and said, "I have something else to do."
"What about Helian Bijun?" Xie Mubai asked directly without beating around the bush.
Xie Lian felt a little embarrassed when his son asked so directly.
He rubbed his hands awkwardly and nodded randomly.
Seeing Xie Lian's reaction, Xie Mubai's heart sank.
He did not answer, but said coldly: "You should know that the Wei Kingdom and foreign nations cannot intermarry."
Although it was not said directly, Xie Lian clearly understood the meaning of the words.
Humans are not plants or trees, so who can be heartless?
Ever since the misunderstanding with Helian Bijun was resolved, Xie Lian felt more sympathy for her.
Is it just pity?
Even the straight man Xie Lian himself is not clear about this.
"You should worry about your own affairs first." Xie Lian thought for a moment, his eyes falling on Shen Wan's frail figure under the city wall. "I have a bad feeling. I always feel that there is something wrong with this girl's biological father."
"What will you do if that person doesn't agree with you associating with each other?"
Wang Si was the most talented woman in the Wei Dynasty. Countless princes and nobles were attracted by her.
Since this girl's father has won the heart of the beauty, why doesn't he marry her?
Obviously, there is something wrong with that person's identity.
"It doesn't matter whether there are any problems or not." Looking at Shen Wan in the moonlight, Xie Mubai felt warm in his heart, "Let alone that person, even if the Marquis of Xiangyang stood in front of me and openly opposed it, I wouldn't care."
Although there is no blood relationship, it has to be admitted that the adoptive father, Xiangyang Hou, is indeed more qualified to interfere in Shen Wan's marriage than the biological father whose name is unknown.
Before he finished speaking, Xie Mubai hurried downstairs and walked straight towards the slender figure.
"You said so too. Just wait for me at the post station. Why bother to come out with me?" Xie Mubai reached out and hugged Shen Wan, gently brushing the messy hair behind her ears.
The spring wind was really strong, and the newly planted poplar forest had not yet reached a large scale. After a while, Shen Wan was covered in yellow sand.
Shen Wan smiled sweetly: "It's boring at the post station anyway, why not go out for a walk with you."
"The moonlight is just right tonight, so I'll walk with you." Looking at the bright smiling face, Xie Mubai thought for a moment and said.
Wang Qi said that girls all like romance.
Now that I think about it, I really owe her too much.
We have known each other for so long, and we have both been struggling for survival along the way. When has he ever really been there for her?
When he arrived in Lanyang City, he was fully focused on planning to raise an army, and he had even less time to spend with her.
Upon hearing this, Shen Wan immediately became happy.
"Okay!" She held the villain's hand and was as happy as a child.
Seeing that she was so easily satisfied, Xie Mubai felt more and more guilty.
He didn't say anything, but just held Shen Wan's hand tightly, and the two of them walked forward in the moonlight.
The scenery of Lanyang City is really not worth mentioning, but even so, both of them felt sweet in their hearts.
Xie Lian stood on the high city wall, looking at the beautiful couple with complicated eyes.
The villain always keeps his word.
Three days later, the extremely ill Helian Bijun was finally released.
Xie Lian originally wanted to send her back to the foreign country, but since she was so seriously ill, he had no choice but to let them stay for the time being.
Post station.
"I'm sorry." Shen Wan made a cup of tea for Wang Qi and said with a guilty look, "Helian Bijun almost killed you, but we still pleaded for her."
Wang Qi took the tea and took a sip nonchalantly: "What's so good about this?"
"She wants to harm Chu Wei, not me."
"Besides, if I get hurt once, I can get the Helian family. I will be angry if you don't agree to such a good deal."
The more he did this, the more uncomfortable Shen Wan felt.
Xie Mubai looked calm, as if he had already guessed that Wang Qi would agree.
Suddenly, a white dove flew in from the window.
Xie Mubai reached out and grabbed it, quickly untying the bamboo tube from under the pigeon's feet.
He took out the note and took a look at it, his expression immediately changing.
