Without him even lifting a finger, the girl had already chased everyone away. He was about to dismount to thank her when the girl said, "No need to apologize, I'm leaving now," and then spurred her horse and rode off.
The other party didn't even see him once, and perhaps didn't care at all.
After returning to the capital, he inquired and learned that the young girl had fallen in love with Wei Shengwan, his childhood friend and the heir of the Prince Yin's mansion.
The prince is a good person. If Xiangjian can be with the prince, it's not impossible.
Fu Jiuqing was surprised to find that Wan Ge had no interest in her, and she suddenly felt that she still had a chance.
…
"How about I arrange a marriage between you two?" Wei Shengli really wanted to tie Yun Xiangjian and Fu Jiuqing together. That way, if she became someone else's wife, her brother would probably stay away from her, right?
Fu Jiuqing was somewhat puzzled: "Why is Your Highness helping me? Are you worried that the Prince Yin's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion will join forces?"
As they grew up together, Wan Ge had been by Wei Sheng Li's side longer. Perhaps because they were related by blood, the two were closer when they were young. So Fu Jiu Qing couldn't understand why he was trying to match him up with Fu Jiu Qing instead of Wan Ge.
The only possibility is that the Crown Prince was wary of Prince Yin. After all, Prince Yin was a strong contender for the throne back then, but no one expected the late Emperor to have such deep feelings for the Crown Prince's grandmother.
You don't need to know the reason.
Looking at Wei Shengli, Fu Jiuqing felt that His Highness had changed a lot. Was it true that everyone changes after becoming the Crown Prince? He really felt a bit unfamiliar.
"Okay, as long as they aren't hurt." As long as they aren't hurt, and as long as Xiangjian is willing to marry him, Fu Jiuqing is naturally very willing.
"Um."
…
Just as Wan Ge had guessed, they encountered danger on the way back to the General's Mansion, and Wan Ge once again protected Yun Xiangjian.
Seeing the look of admiration on her face, Wan Ge said to her, "Miss Yun, I have something to tell you."
Seeing that she had been pulled to a secluded spot, Yun Xiang felt inexplicably nervous: "Go ahead and say it."
"I will tell you everything, but I hope you can keep it a secret."
Yun Xiangjian immediately swore, "I promise I will never tell anyone, or I will die a horrible death."
"I believe you." Wan Ge cleared her throat. "Actually, I'm a woman."
Yun Xiang was stunned for a moment, then shook her head: "Impossible! How could you be..."
Yun Xiangjian had heard that she had several concubines, and that one of them had recently suffered a miscarriage.
"It's true. I know you like me, so I don't want to lie to you. I will only see you as a friend, nothing more."
"You..." Yun Xiang was so surprised she couldn't speak. After taking a deep breath, she continued, "Don't worry! I won't tell anyone. Thank you. Whether you're a man or a woman, you saved me twice. You are my savior."
"The assassin today was rather strange. I think Miss Yun could investigate him."
"That's exactly what I was thinking too." Although she was usually arrogant and domineering, the General's Mansion only had one daughter, so the Emperor wouldn't be wary of them. It wasn't easy for assassins from an enemy country to infiltrate; sending so many killers out suddenly was indeed strange.
In the story, Yun Xiangjian did indeed want to investigate, but Wei Shengyue's words later ruined her plans.
