Although he still felt that his daughter's words were incoherent and difficult to understand, Xianzong still laughed uncontrollably after hearing what Yu Xiaoxiao said.
Yu Xiaoxiao asked Gu Xinglang: "Is this funny?"
What should Gu Xinglang say about this? His wife definitely didn't do it on purpose, but Gui Ning's look was indeed pitiful. She had been in the hands of the thugs for so long without getting hurt, but in the hands of his wife, two bones were broken. Secretly holding Yu Xiaoxiao's hand, Gu Sanshao thought in despair, anyway, there were too many things that happened to his wife, so what would happen if there was one more?
The secret guards hiding in the dark were happy in their hearts at first, but then they felt sympathy for the Fifth Prince, thinking that it was not very kind for their own emperor to laugh like that.
"That's enough," Yu Xiaoxiao said to Xianzong who couldn't stop, "One should not be too gloating over other people's misfortunes, or else one will suffer retribution."
Xianzong wiped the tears from his laughter, glanced at Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang, and sighed in his heart, "I raised such a guy and found such a son-in-law, he has already got the retribution!"
Gu Xinglang then asked Yu Xiaoxiao: "Princess, what are you doing with the Fifth Prince's ring?"
Yu Xiao: "Have you forgotten that my elder brother gave him five hundred taels of silver?"
Gu Xinglang said, "You want to use this to pay off big brother's five hundred taels?"
Yu Xiaoxiao shook her head and said, "My father said that his paintings are not worth much. I have to find a way to get the five hundred taels back. I have a ring on my hand, so when I turn against him, I will have a trump card, right?"
Xianzong couldn't listen any longer and asked, "Is there grass growing in your brain?"
Yu Xiaoxiao looked at Xianzong coldly and said, "Do you have any objections?"
As for the painting, Xianzong would not say anything. This was his fault. Xianzong said to Yuxiao: "This ring is worth more than five hundred taels!"
Yu Xiao: "Do you think I'm you? I want five hundred taels. I never cheat anyone."
Xianzong..., haven't you cheated enough people?
Gu Xinglang said: "Princess, that is big brother's money."
Yu Xiao: "Are you still going to separate from Big Brother?"
Gu Xinglang stopped talking.
Xianzong sighed and said, "Forget it, leave this ring with me for now."
Yu Xiao: "You want it?"
Xianzong nodded and held the ring in his hand. Guining couldn't regret it even if he wanted to.
Yu Xiao: "Okay, give me five hundred taels."
Xianzong-_-|||, has this guy been planning this from the beginning?
Yu Xiao: "I don't know why, but Gui Ning becomes a little mentally unstable when he sees me."
Everyone in the imperial study..., you have betrayed him like this, how can he not go crazy when he sees you?
"Dad, go talk to him," Yu Xiao said, "It's up to you how much money you want to ask him for."
Xianzong said: "If you don't cheat people out of their money, then I will?"
Yu Xiaoxiao: "Hehe."
Xianzong pointed at Gu Xinglang, saying that it was this boy's fault that his daughter became like this!
The father and daughter were arguing over five hundred taels of silver when a eunuch came to report, "Your Majesty, there is a special envoy from the eldest prince Zhu Rijing outside the palace asking to see you."
When he heard that Jingmo had sent someone, Xianzong didn't want to argue with his daughter anymore, and hurriedly said, "Let him in quickly."
The eunuch took the order and ran away.
Yu Xiao: "I wonder if Jing Mo has become the emperor."
After Emperor Xianzong saw Yu Xiaoxiao and her group returning to Fengjing, he started to order people to find out the news about Zhuri. Unfortunately, the news that came back from Zhuri only said that there was a civil strife within the Jing clan of Zhuri. As for how the strife was and what the final outcome would be, the people sent by Emperor Xianzong were unable to find out anything.
Soon, Jing Mo's envoy stood outside the imperial study and asked for a meeting.
"Come in," Xianzong said.
The special envoy walked into the imperial study.
When Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang saw the person coming, they both recognized him. This person was the captain of the guards who had been with Jing Mo for many years.
"It's you," Yu Xiaoxiao said without waiting for the chief guard to salute Emperor Xianzong, "It's been a while since we last met."
Gu Xinglang pulled Yu Xiaoxiao and said, "Let him salute first."
Before Yu Xiaoxiao could speak again, the captain of the guards knelt on the ground and paid his respects to Emperor Xianzong.
Xianzong raised his hand and said, "Stand up."
The captain of the guard stood up. He was a very handsome man, but now he was covered in dust, and it was obvious that he had come all the way here on horseback.
Yu Xiao: "Is Jing Mo okay?"
The captain of the guards saluted Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang again.
Gu Xinglang waved his hand at the chief guard and said, "No need to be polite. How is the situation of your Sun-killing Army now?"
The chief guard said respectfully to the three people in the imperial study: "My master and the imperial teacher have already arrived in Fengtian, and they will be in Fengjing in two days."
Xianzong cried out: "What? Jingmo failed in the fight for the throne?" There is no reason for a new emperor who successfully fought for the throne to leave the country and go to another country.
Yu Xiaoxiao said firmly, "This is impossible." How could Jing Mo not become the emperor? What about the agreed plot?
The chief guard thought that his master would be very happy if he heard what Princess Linglong said. "Princess," the chief guard said to Yu Xiao, "My master has not failed. He is now the emperor of my country."
"Ha," Yu Xiaoxiao clapped her hands and said to Xianzong, "What did I say? Jing Mo will definitely become the emperor!"
Xianzong asked the chief of the imperial guards, "Then how can your new emperor who killed Japan come to my Fengtian?"
The chief guard said, "In reply to your Majesty, firstly, my master wants to discuss with you personally how to deal with the Temple of Eternal Life. Secondly, the Imperial Master is seriously ill, and my master wants to ask the princess..."
"Is Wuhuan seriously ill?" Yu Xiaoxiao interrupted the captain of the guards and asked.
The chief guard nodded and said, "Yes."
Gu Xinglang said: "What happened to Master Wuhuan?"
The chief guard said, "The Imperial Master has been staying in the carriage. I have never seen him, so I don't know what his condition is."
Yu Xiao: "Did Jing Mo ever hire a doctor for Wu Huan?"
The chief guard said: "My imperial physician Zhuri is helpless against the Imperial Master's illness."
Gu Xinglang's face darkened slightly, and he said, "Since the imperial physician has examined Master Wuhuan, and you are someone close to Jing Mo, how could you not know anything?"
Yu Xiao: "Yes, how could you not know?"
The chief guard shook his head repeatedly and said, "Princess, Prince Consort, I really don't know."
Xianzong asked, "Then your Imperial Master Wuhuan fell ill when he was fine?"
The chief guard said, "Only my master, the Imperial Preceptor, and Jing Qian were in the Golden Palace that day. After that, news spread that the Imperial Preceptor was seriously ill, but only my master and the other three knew what had happened."
"Jing Qian," Xianzong said, "You called the Third Prince by his name. Has Jing Mo killed this brother?"
The chief guard glanced at Yu Xiaoxiao and said, "No, Your Majesty, my master only imprisoned the criminal Jing Qian. My master said that he is not a man who would kill his brothers."
Yu Xiaoxiao let out a long sigh. The current Jing Mo is different from the Jing Mo in her previous life.
