Chapter 229



The number of the Regent's personal guards is no more than 200. If there are more, the ruler will not be able to sleep well.

This has been the system of the Xia Kingdom for hundreds of years and cannot be changed.

Li Xiaochen doesn't care how many people he has, as long as they can be used.

When these guards saw the prince's carriage, they simply saluted and quietly followed the team all the way towards the capital.

Lin Yuxin woke up staggering here.

"Have we set out yet?"

Lin Yuxin rubbed her eyes and asked in a hoarse voice when she saw Li Xiaochen beside her.

"Well, we've been gone for two hours. Are you feeling better? Are you feeling unwell anywhere else?"

Li Xiaochen saw that she woke up and asked in a caring and soft voice.

"Take a nap, there's a lot of 깊!"

Lin Yuxin shook her head and asked Li Xiaochen to help her up, and then she saw Xiaohao sitting next to her.

께 Hao was looking at her with resentment.

"께…께 Hao! Hehe!"

Lin Yuxin greeted awkwardly.

[It’s over, it’s over. She forgot about Xiaohao. Didn’t she say anything inappropriate for children? Wuwuwu! Xiaohao, I was wrong. I didn’t mean to ignore you!!]

Lin Yuxin was crying hard in bed, but she was trying hard but smiling foolishly.

Xiao Hao listened to Lin Yuxin's fake crying and sighed. This sister is getting harder and harder to take care of! So he asked first:

"Are you feeling unwell, sister?"

"Well!"

Lin Yuxin's crying stopped suddenly, and she looked at Xiao Hao awkwardly.

[No matter what she said, it was all Li Xiaochen's fault! Now, a child is chasing her and asking her questions, and she is still embarrassed! ! ]

Lin Yuxin turned around and glared at Li Xiaochen, then said to Xiaohao with an awkward smile:

"Sister, it's nothing serious, just relax!"

께浩 glanced at Li Xiaochen and felt that the two of them must be hiding something from him, but he still didn't ask any more questions and said to his sister:

"Okay, if you feel uncomfortable, you can tell me and I will take care of you."

께 Hao looked at Lin Yuxin and said seriously.

"Good! Our brother Hao is a man with a sense of responsibility. I am very happy."

Lin Yuxin touched Xiaohao's head with relief, then changed the subject and chatted with Xiaohao for a while.

Li Xiaochen did not interrupt their conversation this time. When he returned to the capital this time, he had a hunch that this bastard would not be able to cling to Xinxin for long, and he might not even have freedom in the future.

It's okay to let him get closer to her sister this time, there may not be such an opportunity in the future!

Li Xiaochen looked at the stinky kid trying to curry favor with Xinxin, a hint of schadenfreude flashed in his eyes.

"Yes, I asked your secret guards to capture the Saintess Shangguan Yan from the Northern Frontier and bring her to Beijing. I wonder where she is now?"

Lin Yuxin remembered something and said to Li Xiaochen.

"Well, I know, but the situation in the capital is unstable now, so we can't send her there yet. If she really died in Xia State, Northern Frontier would definitely send troops. We should lock her up in a safe place first, and then take her to the capital to be a guest after we have dealt with the affairs in the capital."

Li Xiaochen nodded to indicate that he understood. He found it quite funny when he found out an hour ago. Why did his girl like to bring people home? She was so courageous.

But he is not afraid. No matter what happens, he will handle it.

"Then where should we send her? It would save trouble if we let her go, but we are a little unwilling! This woman came to Xia Country not just to steal things, but also to provide Shufang with that kind of medicine. Otherwise, how do you think Shufang, a village girl, could get such a strong medicine? And you, a dignified prince, can't you do it?"

Lin Yuxin pouted and said unwillingly, thinking of that woman who drugged Li Xiaochen and caused her body to ache all over, she felt itchy with hatred.

"Let her go. She can't run away, and no one dares to save her. How about we deal with her after we finish dealing with the affairs in the capital!"

Li Xiaochen saw that she was unhappy and coaxed her in a low voice.

"Will there be trouble in the northern border?"

Lin Yuxin glanced at him and asked.

"No, in addition to the Saint, who is the largest in the Northern Frontier, there are four major families and several large tribes. The Saint is the most powerful one they picked to raise a pig, and she is the most special one who raises a pig with her own body. So they will feel sorry for her and send people to rescue her, but they will not risk everything for her."

"If Shangguan Yan doesn't have the ability to raise pigs, then the four major families will pull her down. So even though the Saint is a powerful figure in Northern Xinjiang now, she doesn't have the final say."

Li Xiaochen shook his head and said that he had asked about the Holy Maiden of Huolie Northern Frontier and the situation in Northern Frontier since he was in Quyan County.

"Oh? That's pretty much what you guessed. I tested her when I confronted Shangguan Yan before, but she turned pale. It's obvious that I was talking about her. But since she is a saint who is manipulated by others, why did she risk coming to Xia Country?"

Lin Yuxin touched her lower body, thinking, and then she thought of something and her eyes lit up.

[She came for Zhizhi. Zhizhi is the King of Pigs, the King of Pigs, and the nemesis of all pigs. She wants to take this risk to consolidate her position in the Northern Frontier and become a real master.]

She remembered that Shangguan Yan had been asking her about something, and it seemed to be the Gu King, but she did not admit it and changed the subject.

But how did she know that there was a Gu King on the mountain? Lin Yuxin thought about everyone and remembered one person, Xue Ji who was rescued. She was surprised at that time, why did the saint take such a big risk to rescue that girl? It turns out that there was a bargaining chip! !

Li Xiaochen saw that Lin Yuxin had been thinking, rubbed her head and said softly:

"If you can't figure it out, don't think about it for now. It's all irrelevant anyway! Do you want to rest for a while?"

"If you don't sleep, you won't be able to sleep at night."

Lin Yuxin shook her head, supported Li Xiaochen's arms, endured the discomfort of her body, sat up, and chatted with Li Xiaochen about things in the capital.

Next, after reuniting with Shui Mei, the group headed straight to the capital without rest. After six days, they encountered three assassinations and finally arrived at the foot of the Bailing Temple outside the capital.

In another hour's walk we reached the capital.

Li Xiaochen did not take his personal guards back, but left them on the mountain of Bailing Temple, awaiting orders.

놙 brought Lin Yuxin, 께 Hao, Xueying and Shuimei to Beijing.

And now people in the capital are in a panic.

In the study of the General's Mansion...

"Dad, the emperor has been to court for three days. Nothing will happen, right?"

Zhao Yingfeng said with a frown on his face.

After Lin Yuxin's treatment, he was able to relax and walk slowly two months after Lin Yuxin left.

Half a year later, except for the fact that he could not do strenuous exercise, he was the same as a normal person. Now he has been named the Cavalry General.

Ten years ago, he was paralyzed in bed due to an injury. The emperor wanted to confer him the rank of general, but he refused. Some time ago, my father went to see the emperor, and the two had a long conversation in the imperial study. He directly conferred him the rank of General of the Cavalry.

"We received news yesterday that the emperor was under control, and Concubine Xiao and Uncle Xiao were planning to rebel."

Zhao Shijie said in a deep voice that he also received a secret letter from the Regent Prince a few days ago and didn't know about it.

We sent people into the palace to investigate last night, and got confirmed news this morning that the entire Qianqing Palace was under control, and the emperor and empress were locked up inside.
