Chapter 293 They Are Not Your Children
Xiangying turned around and was about to enter the space, ready to help Jie Chen clear the obstacles.
She remembered that she had also installed two hidden mines under the emperor's study.
As long as Xie Chen can lure the remaining rebels over, Xiangying will be able to catch them all in one fell swoop.
Suddenly, she heard a slight noise outside the window.
It felt like someone was gently prying open the window lock.
A hint of coldness flashed across Xiangying's phoenix eyes, and she stared straight at the window.
A figure quietly opened the window and then came in.
As soon as he stood firm, a dagger was pressed against his neck.
"You broke into my room, do you want to die?" Xiangying's faint voice came to my ears.
Fang Gan's throat tightened, perhaps because he felt her murderous intent.
"It's me!" He quickly revealed his identity.
Of course Xiangying saw clearly that it was him, but in the current situation, she would not easily trust anyone who suddenly appeared.
"How did you get into the palace?"
"Jie Chen brought me in. I came to see my sister!" Fang Gan explained.
Xiangying narrowed his eyes: "Evidence?"
Fang Gan: "The evidence is that Ah Ren is here too, and he's guarding outside."
Xiangying freed one hand to open the window and took a look outside.
Sure enough, the thin figure of the young boy Ah Ren was squatting at the foot of the wall, staring outside vigilantly.
Only then did Xiangying put away the dagger.
"You've come to the wrong place. The cold palace has to go west."
"I've seen her." Fang Gan's voice was particularly lonely, "It's really her, my sister Qing'er."
Xiangying glanced at him and saw that he looked sad and lost, which made her feel puzzled.
"You've been looking for her, haven't you? Why aren't you happy after finding her?"
"If I had known that she was abducted into the palace, presented to the Emperor of Nanyue as a concubine, and then abandoned for no reason and became crazy, I would have come earlier."
Fang Gan's tone was full of self-blame.
He looked at Xiangying and said, "Thank you. Although I have always coveted the imperial seal on you, you are helping me sincerely. It seems that I have been judging you by my own standards."
Xiangying smiled and said, "It's not too late to realize it now."
Fang Gan cupped his hands: "I want to repay you! Even if it means giving myself to you!"
"Promise yourself to me? Forget it!" Xiangying waved his hand, "Jie Chen is enough to deal with, and now there is still Lu Feiyi to deal with. If you come along, I really can't handle it."
Fang Gan coughed lightly in embarrassment.
He thought for a moment and said, "I also guessed that you would not accept it, so I plan to use the valuable information I got before as a reward and tell you for free."
Xiangying stared at him with dark eyes: "For free? You wanted to charge me before?"
"How can you survive in the underworld without money..." Fang Gan felt more and more guilty as he spoke.
Especially when meeting Xiangying’s pair of dark and penetrating eyes.
Fang Gan pursed his lips and said, "The Shadow Hall has always been an organization that trains secret guards and assassins. We also collect valuable intelligence from all parties. I heard that the imperial seal was lost long before Xiang Yuande ascended the throne."
"I heard that the late emperor gave it to a very reliable minister, who was then Duke Ge. However, Duke Ge's family was massacred by his enemies, and the whereabouts of the imperial seal are still unknown."
Xiangying paused.
She had heard about Duke Ge's affairs.
He was the most trusted minister of the late emperor when he was still alive.
The bloody case was something Xiangying had read about in the books he had collected when he was bored.
There were sixty-three people in the Ge family, and four generations of the family died at the hands of their enemies.
Xiangying came back to his senses: "What's the use of you saying this to me? I don't care about the jade seal at all."
Fang Gan looked at her: "Don't worry, I haven't finished yet. The Sixth Prince caught a crazy woman before and lied that she was Yin Feihua. Do you remember?"
"Remember, what's wrong?"
"That person was from the Western Zhou Dynasty. She lived in the capital for a period of time and worked as a midwife. Who do you think she delivered babies for?"
Xiangying was a little impatient: "Do you have to keep us in suspense all the time? Explain clearly."
Fang Gan was afraid that her fist would hit him on the forehead.
He silently took a half step back and said, "She delivered the baby for Duke Ge's granddaughter-in-law! She was crazy before, but later Jie Chen sent someone to treat her. Just a few days ago, she personally admitted that Duke Ge's granddaughter-in-law gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, three children!"
Xiangying was shocked, and in a flash, she thought of something.
"Are you telling the truth?"
"It's absolutely true!" Fang Gan nodded. "The granddaughter-in-law of the Ge Kingdom gave birth three days before the massacre. But I heard that the child was taken away right after it was born."
Xiangying was stunned and actually thought of his three little ones.
Are they the descendants of Duke Ge?
Fang Gan looked at Xiangying's expression and knew that she had made the connection.
He said in a serious tone: "Are those three children of yours really yours?"
Xiangying couldn't answer at all. The damn thing was that she had no memory of giving birth to a child.
She recalled it again, and the memories belonging to the original owner became more and more blurred with her arrival.
This body has been transformed from the inside out to become her own.
Fang Gan said, "I can't stay here for too long. I have to go. I also need to send my sister out of the palace. Jie Chen asked me to send Ah Ren in to accompany you."
After saying that, he turned around, opened the window, and whistled outside.
The next second, A-Ren came in through the window.
"Sister!" The young boy was obviously very excited. He rushed over and hugged Xiangying. "I'm so glad to see that you are okay."
Xiangying rubbed his head and said, "You seem to have grown taller again."
Ah Ren showed his white teeth happily: "Really? Brother Jie Chen said so too."
The two were talking, and Xiangying noticed from the corner of her eye that Fang Gan had not left yet, so she narrowed her eyes.
"What are you waiting for?"
Fang Gan stared at her with resentful eyes: "You said before that you would throw anyone who touches you over your shoulder, why didn't you throw Ah Ren?"
Xiangying put his arm around Aren's shoulders: "This is my brother, can it be the same?"
"That's right! I'm your biological brother, my last name is Xiang too, my name is Xiangren!"
"I don't think you look like a human being..." Fang Gan said sarcastically, then quickly climbed out the window and left.
There were sounds of fighting outside and it was a mess.
Ah Ren reported the situation quickly: "The eldest prince inherited the emperor's remaining death squad and imperial guards, and is fighting against Brother Jie Chen. Sister, Brother Jie Chen told you not to leave here for the time being. The most dangerous place is the safest place."
Xiangying nodded: "I really don't want to leave either."
Because there are bombs planted by her outside!
Only here is safe.
At this time, Aren took out a purse from his arms.
"Before coming here, my brothers and sisters asked me to bring it to you. Here, sister."
Xiangying took it and found the purse was heavy. He smiled and said, "What is it? Could it be the small bones left over by Yuanxiao?"
However, when the purse was opened, there were three pieces of jade.
It is exactly the same as the jade that Xiangying wore around his neck when he was first exiled, and there are three of them.
She was stunned.
