Chapter 1027 Mystery
"My original name is Sunuo."
Yun Zhen replied: "Our world has fewer wars and is more peaceful. Our technology is more advanced, and life and study are more convenient."
At this point, he felt Jiang Xue gently pressing his palm. Just as he was wondering, his eyes suddenly became dull and his mind went blank.
Jiang Xue looked at him who was controlled by the soul-stealing insect with deep eyes.
Before leaving Southern Xinjiang, Luo Yun gave her a soul-catching Gu. This time, in order to verify the claim about Jiang Ke's rebirth, she specially sent someone to Southern Xinjiang to get another one.
Today, she must hear the truth.
Although Xiao Zhan understood that there must be a reason why she suddenly pinched Yun Zhen's palm, he just couldn't feel comfortable.
She hurriedly explained: "Yun Che, I just put a soul-stealing Gu on him, don't be angry."
How could he not be angry? But he was not angry at Jiang Xue, but at Yun Zhen.
If Yun Zhen hadn't caused so much trouble, how could she have so many troubles and worries?
Xiao Zhan didn't say anything, but just held her hand tightly.
Jiang Xue turned to look at Yun Zhen and asked him to tell her everything he knew, and the result was exactly the same as what he had said before.
It seems that what he said is unbelievable, but it should be true.
Jiang Xue took back the Soul-Snatching Gu, and Yun Zhen woke up immediately, but he couldn't remember what had happened just now. He only knew that she must have done something to him.
"Yun Zhen, or rather... Sunuo, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you."
Hearing this, Su Nuo's face changed: "Princess, do you still not believe me?"
"At first I believed it only a little bit, but now I believe it at least six points."
"Then why..."
"You want to ask me why I trust you more now, but why I want to disappoint you, right?"
Jiang Xue said: "I am the regent princess, so naturally I put the country first.
At least now, I can't go with you to a ghost tribe that I've never heard of to meet Su Yili, a person I've never met, even for my brother. Because no one can guarantee how much danger there is ahead. "
For the sake of the dynasty, she could even let go of Xiao Zhan, not to mention Jiang Ke who had been dead for many years.
After hearing this, Xiao Zhan breathed a sigh of relief.
She was still the rational regent princess, and even her deep feelings for Jiang Ke did not affect her judgment.
"Yun Zhen, please go back to Dong Xiang. If you still want to take me to see Su Yili after the emperor takes power in the future, I can go with you then. But now, absolutely not."
Yun Zhen looked at her quietly, his eyes complicated, and finally calmed down: "The Princess means that I have to wait another eight or nine years, or even longer?"
Jiang Xue nodded: "Yes."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Zhen suddenly smiled: "I'll wait!"
People like Jiang Xue always keep their promises.
Since I have given him hope today, I will definitely fulfill my promise in the future. What's the harm in waiting another ten or eight years?
Anyway, he has lived here for more than ten years, and now at least there is hope. When he returns to his original world in the future, he will just regard it as a dream.
"But I don't want to go back to Dongxiang, because no one knows what Yunjun will do to me when I go back?"
"You don't have to go back."
Jiang Xue said: "But you have to stay in the palace all the time and cannot move freely."
Since he is unwilling to return to Dongxiang, then let him stay in the palace and take care of Jiang Ke's health.
But she knew that Xiao Zhan would definitely not want this person to get close to her, so she decided to put him under house arrest. After all, she never wanted to do anything to displease Xiao Zhan.
"I think this is good. It's much safer here than in Dongxiang. I just hope I can be treated better in the future."
"Okay." Jiang Xue then asked, "Sunuo, do you have anything else to say?"
"Half of the people who came with me are Yun Jun's men. Please ask Your Highness the Princess to help deal with them."
"What about the poison in your body?"
"It doesn't matter."
Yun Zhen said: "This poison comes from the Western Regions. As long as you follow Su Yili's method and bathe with herbs, there will be no big problem."
"In that case, I don't need to worry about it anymore. Goodbye."
On the way back in the carriage, Xiao Zhan hesitated to speak. Since she had made the decision, he would not say anything more, because she knew her own limits.
Seeing this, Jiang Xue couldn't help but ask: "Yun Che, what do you want to say?"
"I just find Yun Zhen's words hard to believe."
"That's true at first, but it's worth thinking about when he still said that after being controlled by the Soul-stealing Gu."
Jiang Xue sighed softly: "Although he is telling the truth, whether these things are true is another matter. Maybe someone deliberately made him believe that this is true."
"Yes."
Xiao Zhan nodded: "We can use the Soul-stealing Gu, and others can also use similar means to control Yun Zhen. My intuition tells me that there must be something hidden behind this."
"Whether it is true or not, I can put this matter aside for now, but after Heng'er takes power, I plan to go to the Western Regions to meet Su Yili of the Ghost Clan. Yun Che, will you support me?"
It is not easy to rationally put aside the doubts that have arisen today temporarily.
Things of the future will be solved in the future. If she insists on solving this mystery at that time, he will go with her.
"I don't approve of it, but I won't stop it."
Jiang Xue became easily tired after becoming pregnant, and coupled with today's efforts, she soon fell asleep in Xiao Zhan's arms.
Even when the carriage stopped at the gate of the princess's mansion, she did not wake up.
Xiao Zhan felt sorry for her, so he carried her into the bedroom, gently placed her on the bed, carefully took off her shoes and socks, covered her with a blanket, and then walked out and told Fu Dong, "Immediately send someone to the Western Regions to inquire about the situation of the Ghost Clan."
The next day, Jiang Xue ordered people to place the people Yun Zhen brought from Dongxiang in the newly renovated envoys' villa according to Yun Zhen's request, leaving him alone in the palace.
She specially wrote a letter to Dong Xiang, expressing her wish for him to stay in Gan State.
Given the disparity in power between Gan State and Dong Xiang, it would not be difficult to keep him, and she knew that neither the emperor of Dong Xiang nor Yun Jun would object.
This is done just to save everyone's face.
After everything was arranged, she asked Xiao Zhan to read the storybook to her.
After the Lantern Festival, the court will be busy with affairs and he will have no time to be distracted, so now is the best time to enjoy the time.
Xiao Zhan loved her so much that he readily agreed to her request.
He beckoned her to come closer, letting her snuggle comfortably in his arms, and began to read aloud the latest storybook in the capital.
However, he soon noticed that she seemed a little absent-minded and kept moving around in his arms, making him feel itchy and excited.
Looking down, he found that she was looking up at him, her eyes full of tenderness and smile.
Looking at her like this, sweet ripples arose in his heart.
"Xiaoxue, aren't you interested in this story?"
"The story is so clichéd that I know the ending as soon as I hear the beginning, but..."
Jiang Xue chuckled: "As long as you, Yun Che, read it to me, I will like it no matter how clichéd the story is."
Hearing this, Xiao Zhan couldn't help but smile: "If you like it, why are you still twisting and turning in my arms?"
"Because your embrace is so comfortable, I can't help it," she replied.
