Chapter 393 She Has No Time
Xiao Ji also said: "This is the house that Yaoyao specially selected. There is a hot spring in the house, which is beneficial to Lord Wei's cultivation."
Wei Zhe wanted to speak, but Wei Chan said directly: "Your Majesty is very kind to me, brother, please don't refuse."
If it was for any other reason, Wei Chan would naturally refuse, but this was for Wei Zhe's health, and it was difficult for Wei Chan to refuse.
Wei Zhe paused and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, Your Majesty."
"But after the matter in the capital is settled, I still want to go to the northern border." Wei Zhe said: "I am used to living in the northern border, and I am still a little uncomfortable in the capital now."
Xie Yao and Xiao Ji both frowned, but before they could say anything, Wei Chan spoke first, "Brother, how can that be possible?"
"The doctor said that you have been in the North for many years and your body has been eroded by the cold. It is best for you to stay in a warm place to recuperate."
"For you, even the capital is a bit cold, it would be best to go to the Jiangnan area..."
"Achan." Wei Zhe said with a somewhat helpless voice, "Don't worry, I know the condition of my body."
"Most importantly, I like the North and want to stay in Beijing."
Wei Zhe's expression and voice were extremely gentle, and he had no intention of arguing, but he succeeded in making Wei Chan's words of objection stuck in her throat.
A brother like this...she really didn't know how to refuse.
Finally, Wei Chan could only say, "Let's talk about it after this matter is over."
Xie Yao also said, "A few more doctors will arrive in the capital in a few days. Sir Wei might as well wait until you have seen them all before making a decision."
"Yes." Wei Zhe did not refuse, which made Wei Chan feel relieved.
Originally, Wei Chan asked Xie Yao and Xiao Ji to go to Yuanzhou to help with disaster relief, but because of Huyan Yu's successive actions, Wei Chan was kept in the capital by Xie Yao.
After caring about Wei Zhe's physical condition, Xie Yao started chatting about business with Wei Chan.
Xie Yao said: "Huyan Yu said that she doesn't have much time left, and the palace maids in Liuguang Palace also said that they can often hear her coughing."
"And I saw Hu Yanyu's maid handling the blood-stained handkerchief."
Huyan Yu lived in Liuguang Palace, so naturally she put herself under the eyes of Xie Yao and Xiao Ji, so there was no possibility of any secrets.
Wei Chan thought about it and nodded, "In that case, Princess Huyan had symptoms on the way back to Beijing."
"I asked Princess Huyan at the time, and she just said that her throat was uncomfortable."
"It's poison." Two voices sounded at the same time.
Xie Yao and Wei Chan looked towards the two people who were talking——
Xiao Ji and Wei Zhe, who were talking about something just now, looked at them at the same time. They said what they just said in unison.
Xiao Ji said: "I said last time that Princess Huyan's physique was caused by being fed since she was young. It must be extremely harmful to her body to develop into what she is now."
"But now it seems that the damage to her body is more serious than I expected."
Wei Zhe said: "The various medicinal herbs mixed in his body have already caused fatal damage to Hu Yanyu's body."
"This poison... has no antidote."
Wei Zhe lowered his eyes slightly, and when he spoke of this, he looked vague, distant and extremely lonely.
Xie Yao and Wei Chan looked at each other, and a thought popped into their minds: He seemed... to have a lot of stories.
Wei Zhe continued: "Based on Hu Yanyu's current performance, she is indeed not lying."
"She doesn't have much time left."
…
Huyan Yu was indeed very happy, but she soon found out how Xie Yao did it.
Xie Yao did save her mother.
However, he did not follow her idea and send out his secret agents in the northern border, but instead sent a letter directly to Huyan Yuan, asking him to send Huyan Yu's mother to Xia State.
Hu Yanyu didn't know what the letter said specifically.
The news she received was: Hu Yanyuan agreed.
Now her mother had already left the palace in the northern border and was sent to the northern border. When she arrived in the northern border, she met up with Pei Chen, the Marquis of Zhenbei, and others, and then was escorted to the capital by the people of Xia.
When Huyan Yu heard the news from the maid, his expression changed instantly.
She slammed her hand on the table in the hall, and her expression was ferocious with pain for a moment.
"Princess!" the maid said quickly. Hu Yanyu's hands grasped the edge of the table tightly, with a cold look in his eyes. "Xie Yao... She must have guessed it."
"I was too impatient."
Hu Yanyu said this and coughed.
The maid quickly handed over a handkerchief. Huyan Yu covered his mouth and coughed, and the white handkerchief was stained with blood.
"Princess!" The maid's voice was full of worry. Hu Yanyu waved her hand and said, "It's okay."
The maid hesitated and whispered, "Princess, why don't we just forget about this..."
Bang!
Before the maid finished her words, Hu Yanyu raised his hand and slapped her in the face, "You are useless!"
"I, Hu Yanyu, will accomplish whatever I want to do!"
The maid was slapped and her head tilted to one side. She looked extremely embarrassed, but she did not dare to say anything to Hu Yanyu. She knelt on the ground and agreed, "Whatever the princess wants to do will definitely come true."
"The princess is wise."
Huyan Yu no longer looked at the maid kneeling on the ground, but his expression changed constantly as he thought about his next strategy.
After thinking for a moment, Hu Yanyu stood up and walked out, saying, "Go to the Yangxin Palace. I want to see Xie Yao."
Hall of Mental Cultivation.
Xie Yao had already received the news before Huyan Yu came.
Of course, she also knew that Huyan Yu knew that she had sent a letter to Huyan Yuan.
Xie Yao did not stop him and directly ordered Li Dajian to invite Hu Yanyu in.
This time, Xiao Ji did not dodge.
The layout of the Hall of Mental Cultivation has undergone tremendous changes compared to when the previous emperor was alive. In the past, the Hall of Mental Cultivation only had one table.
Now, two tables were placed side by side, and Xie Yao and Xiao Ji sat side by side in the Yangxin Palace. This was a treatment that no empress in previous dynasties had ever enjoyed.
But Xiao Ji had already added a table in the Golden Palace for Xie Yao, so the one in the Yangxin Palace was naturally nothing.
Huyan Yu was led into the palace by Li Dajian. A disembodied voice rang out in the palace, "Yu greets His Majesty the Emperor and His Majesty the Empress."
"Princess, there's no need to be so polite." Xie Yao looked at Huyan Yu with a slight raise of her eyebrows.
Perhaps because Huyan Yu was anxious, she did not dress up as elaborately as she did in the previous times he came to see her.
"Please take a seat." Xie Yao has always been very nice to Huyan Yu.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." After Hu Yanyu thanked her, he did not sit down, but said directly: "Your Majesty, I have received the news that you handed Hu Yanyu a letter of credence, requesting that my mother be sent to Xiaguo."
Change of strategy?
Xie Yao looked at Hu Yanyu with a smile on her face, "Yes, Princess, are you relieved now?"
"With the letter from the empire, Hu Yanyuan would never dare to rashly harm the princess's mother on the road, and I have received the news today."
"The princess's mother has now arrived in the northern border. The Marquis of Zhenbei has received her and will leave for the capital tomorrow."
"I think the princess will be able to meet your mother soon."
Xie Yao's voice was gentle, and her face showed "you're welcome", which made Huyan Yu's teeth itch.
Xie Yao saw through her plan and did not act according to her plan at all, but she still wanted to thank Xie Yao!
She was really pissed off!
But no matter how angry Hu Yanyu was, she still put on a smile. She acted like a real queen, kneeling in the hall and looking at Xie Yao with admiration, "Thank you, Queen."
"Empress, Yu has something else to ask for. I beg your permission."
"Princess, you may as well speak frankly. If I can do it, I will definitely not refuse."
"What Yu is most concerned about is the safety of her mother. Now that she is safe, Yu would like to ask the Queen to allow her to leave the palace."
This request... is reasonable.
But Xie Yao didn't think Huyan Yu's request was out of kindness, and Huyan Yu must have other purposes.
"Empress." Hu Yanyu's voice sounded again, "I am very grateful that you have taken me in for such a long time."
"Now that Yu's only wish has been fulfilled, Yu no longer wishes to stay in the palace. Please allow me, Queen."
Xie Yao said: "Of course."
"The princess's mother has arrived in Beijing. It is not appropriate for her to live in the embassy. I will grant the princess a house."
Huyan Yu paused and said, "I appreciate the Queen's kindness, but you don't need the house..."
"Princess." Xie Yao had no intention of backing down. She said, "You are not in good health. There are many people in the embassy. It would be bad if you bump into them."
Huyan Yu raised his eyes to look at Xie Yao, and was certain when he met her eyes.
If she doesn't agree to accept this house today, she may not be able to leave the Xia Kingdom Palace.
Hu Yanyu was silent for a moment, then said, "Thank you, Queen, but I don't know if I can choose the house myself."
"Your Majesty knows that I like Wei Zhe. Even though he doesn't like me, I still want to be closer to him."
"I want to live next door to the Wei family."
Without waiting for Xie Yao to speak, Huyan Yu continued, "My Queen, I checked and found that there are only empty houses around the Wei family. They were almost emptied out at the beginning."
"As long as the queen grants me a small house, that will be enough."
"Okay." Xie Yao agreed directly.
Anyway, according to her understanding, Huyan Yu really doesn't have much time left.
Hu Yanyu breathed a sigh of relief and immediately thanked her: "Thank you, Queen."
Huyan Yu seemed to be worried that Xie Yao would go back on her word, so he thanked her and left quickly, heading straight out of the palace.
Xiao Ji then put down the memorial in his hand and asked, "The Queen has agreed now?"
Xie Yao smiled, "Your Majesty, you have figured it out, right? Hu Yanyu's target is either Lord Wei or Little Lord Wei."
With Wei Zhe around, Little Lord Wei is naturally Wei Chan.
As for Wei Er, he is General Wei.
"Yes." Xiao Ji nodded, "But she may not know that Lord Wei and Little Lord Wei have moved to the new house early this morning."
This is why Xie Yao agreed so readily. Otherwise, no matter how much Huyan Yu talked, she would not put Wei Zhe and Wei Chan in danger.
"There are enough people deployed around her house." Xie Yao said, "I want to see what she wants to do."
After a pause, Xie Yao looked at Si Nan, "Has there been any news from Yuanzhou?"
"In reply to your Majesty, I have sent a message." Si Nan replied immediately, "Si Beiyuan is over there, and I sent another message. Miss Xuan will be safe and sound."
Zhu Qing also said: "The Xuan family in the capital has also arranged enough people to protect them."
At this moment, Li Dajian walked in from outside with a letter in his hand.
He presented it respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Miss Xuan II wrote a letter, asking Your Majesty and Your Majesty to open it personally."
Xuan Shu’s letter?
Xie Yao and Xiao Ji looked at each other and both keenly sensed that something was wrong.
Xie Yao took the letter, opened it, and read the contents of the letter. The expression on her face suddenly became a little complicated.
She then handed the letter to Xiao Ji.
After reading it, Xiao Ji let out a sigh and said, "So that's how it is."
Xie Yao looked at Si Nan, "Send a message to Si Nan, be sure to send more people to ensure Xuan Shu's safety."
"Huyan Yu's people...will definitely take action against Xuan Shu."
Xuanshu's letter only mentioned one thing, that when she was with Huyan Ye, she had seen Huyan Yu behind Huyan Ye several times.
Although the person who tortured Huyan Yu was Huyan Ye's mother, the relationship between Huyan Yu and Huyan Ye was very good!
Xie Yao and Xiao Ji had already guessed it before, and now with Xuan Shu's letter as evidence, they quickly figured out the whole thing.
Huyan Yu came to the capital and said those things to her with only one purpose.
Find out who killed Hu Yanye and avenge him.
That's why Huyan Yu wanted Xie Yao to use the power that she had used to pass the message to Xuanshu and bring Xuanshu back to the country.
It's just to catch those people and wipe them out in one fell swoop.
Thinking of this, a cold light flashed in Xie Yao's eyes. Hu Yanyu was really good at scheming!
Xie Yao said: "Keep an eye on her."
"If there is any unusual movement, capture it immediately!"
In the past, she didn't know about Huyan Yu's plan, so she gave Huyan Yu some face. Now that she knows, is she still afraid of a princess from the Northern Frontier in the capital of her Xia Kingdom?
"Yes!" Si Nan was shocked and responded with a fist.
at the same time.
Huyan Yu also quickly selected a new house and moved directly into it.
But when she arrived at the new house, she was dumbfounded.
The brother and sister Wei Zhe and Wei Chan have actually moved away, and now the Wei family house is empty.
Before Hu Yanyu had time to get angry about this, her maid came to report, "Princess, outside the house are all Xia Kingdom's Jinwu Guards, saying that they are following the orders of the Queen of Xia Kingdom to protect the princess."
Hu Yanyu's face was extremely ugly, "Damn it!"
"I've been tricked. Xie Yao is really cunning!"
Huyan Yu knew very well that she couldn't leave the house now.
But did Xie Yao think that she could be trapped like this?
impossible!
She had already arranged what needed to be arranged.
Hu Yanyu asked the maid, "Is everything arranged?"
The maid lowered her head and said hurriedly, "Princess, everything has been arranged."
Hu Yanyu looked up at the sky and said, "Unfortunately, this princess can't see it."
"Cough, cough, cough!" Before Huyan Yu could finish his words, he started coughing weakly again, almost coughing out his lungs.
"Princess!" The maid hurriedly helped her sit down, "Princess, I will go and get the doctor..."
“No, no need.” Blood oozed from the corners of Huyanyu’s lips, and her weak body trembled slightly. “Help, help this princess lie down.”
The maid helped Hu Yanyu very carefully.
Even though she moved very gently, when her hand touched Huyan Yu's hand, it still left a purple mark on Huyan Yu's fair skin.
Even a gentle touch can leave such scars, which look horrible.
