When King Wu'an Xiao Qichen was at war with the Yuewu Kingdom, Xiao He lived in the palace with five-year-old Xiao Jinghan.
When the battle was at a stalemate, news came that Xiaohe had died suddenly in a side hall of the Queen's Kunning Palace.
After three days and three nights of fighting on the border, Xiao Qichen was on the verge of victory when he suddenly fell ill and died in the barracks.
Adopted son Xiao Jingyi took over the Xiao family army and continued to guard the Nanyi border.
Xiao Jinghan is the only blood of Prince Wu'an. He suddenly lost his parents and was raised by Emperor Wen himself. Emperor Wen treated him better than his own son!
Xiao Jinghan was a bargaining chip to balance the imperial court and Nanyi, staying in the imperial palace in Shangjing. Although he was extremely noble, the court officials and children of the noble families in Shangjing knew very well that Xiao Jinghan was a hostage who could not die.
In recent years, Xiao Jingyi, whose power has grown increasingly powerful, has begun to be out of the control of the court.
However, as long as the Prince of Wu'an is around, the old subordinates of Prince Wu'an Xiao Qichen will not completely obey Xiao Jingyi.
If Xiao Jinghan died in Shangjing, Xiao Jingyi would use the excuse that the royal family was plotting to murder the bloodline of Prince Wu'an to attack the imperial city of Shangjing. At that time, Prince Wu'an's old subordinates would also be recaptured by Xiao Jingyi.
After Xiao Jinghan's mother and father passed away, someone gave him the Blue Sky Poison. This poison wouldn't kill a person directly, but would only weaken the body, making it worse day by day, and eventually leading to death.
Emperor Wen used the secret treasure of the royal family of Dazhao Kingdom to protect Xiao Jinghan's heart from being eroded by the poison of the blue sky.
Xiao Jinghan cannot live a normal life like other people. He is just a person who relies on medicinal herbs to save his life.
Luo Lingyue couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Xiao Jinghan was the victim of the power struggle.
Although Xiao Jinghan was tortured by the Biluo poison for many years, it did not affect his growth into a young man with introverted brilliance, humble, friendly and gentle like jade.
Luo Lingyue looked at Xiao Jinghan, who was surrounded by young ladies from aristocratic families. He was truly as graceful as an orchid and a jade tree, and his smile was like the bright moon in his arms. His eyebrows and eyes were pure, and his complexion was natural!
Luo Lingyue felt that the only way to describe Xiao Jinghan was: the man on the street is as beautiful as jade, and the young master is unparalleled in the world.
Xiao Jinghan seemed to feel Luo Lingyue's gaze. He raised his eyes and looked at her across the crowd with clear eyes.
Luo Lingyue stared at him from a distance, her eyes filled with nothing but pity. Xiao Jinghan was stunned. This crazy girl was pitying him? And her face was especially clean today, not like a palette!
The peach blossom viewing afterwards was even less interesting to Luo Lingyue. It was definitely a blind date event!
A group of handsome men and beautiful women were acting coyly. Luo Lingyue thought about Mu San in the ghost market and thought it was time to go and see him. Even the best hunting dog needs a good master!
Xiao Jinghan looked at Luo Lingyue thoughtfully with an impatient look on her face. This crazy girl seemed like a different person since she fell into the water.
The prince was right beside her, but she was not as obsessed with him as before.
On the contrary, she was able to cope with the prince's conversation. In the end, she actually fell asleep leaning against the peach tree!
What is this? Did you steal last night?
Xiao Jinghan really guessed it right. Luo Lingyue sneaked into her father's armory last night and made weapons for herself all night.
I was planning to catch up on a good sleep today, but ended up being invited by the Eighth Princess to appreciate the flowers!
The prince suppressed his anger. Luo Lingyue had actually ignored him. She was sleeping so soundly that he could even hear her snoring.
This was the first time the prince was treated so badly, and he felt very upset!
This crazy woman had previously insisted on marrying him, but now she had suddenly changed her ways. He felt furious when he thought of the military power in the hands of the Luo family.
The Luo family army was controlled so well by Luo Jing and Luo Linghuai that none of his men could infiltrate!
Xiao Jinghan noticed the change in the prince's expression.
Xiao Jinghan scoffed inwardly. This Crown Prince was quite ambitious, hoping to win over the General's Mansion through Luo Lingyue. Yet, he was reluctant to give the Crown Princess to Luo Lingyue. In this world, nothing can be achieved without sacrifice!
Xiao Jinghan was a little tired, and he said to the Eighth Princess: "Princess, I have a headache, so I'll go back first."
The Eighth Princess immediately sent someone to send Xiao Jinghan back. She said with concern, "Brother Han, I will find the best medicinal herbs for you! You will definitely get better!"
A wry smile appeared on Xiao Jinghan's face: "My time is running out, Princess, don't worry about me anymore!"
The Eighth Princess anxiously tried to pull his sleeve, but then remembered that he didn't like being touched. She pulled her hand back and said anxiously, "Brother Han! I won't allow anything to happen to you! I..."
Xiao Jinghan lowered his head and said softly: "Thank you for your concern, Princess!"
Xiao Jinghan left the Peach Blossom Vault of Yaoguang Palace, his expression instantly cold. Back then, his mother had died suddenly and inexplicably in the Empress's chambers. If it was the Empress who was responsible, then the Crown Prince and the Eighth Princess would be the children of the enemy who murdered their mother.
The hatred for his mother's murder is irreconcilable! He will definitely find out the truth of that year! Avenge his mother!
Luo Lingyue had a sound sleep, and when she woke up, only the Eighth Princess's maid Meixiang was by her side.
Mei Xiang saw Luo Lingyue wake up and bowed to her. "Miss Luo, the other young masters and young ladies from the noble families have already gone home. The Eighth Princess went to the Imperial Physician's Bureau. She said she would let me take you back when you wake up."
Luo Lingyue returned to the General's Mansion and said to Liuli and Linglong, "Guard the yard well and don't let anyone in. I'm going to sleep! I'm so tired! This Eighth Princess's Palace Banquet is so boring!"
Luo Lingyue changed into a crimson chiffon dress in the room, put something on her face in front of the bronze mirror, pinched and rubbed it, and turned into an ordinary girl who would not be recognized in a crowd.
Then she casually tied her hair into a high ponytail, took the weapon she made last night, climbed out the window, and flew over the courtyard wall with a leap.
