Chapter 84: Claiming Sovereignty



Xu Mian took her hand and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for two years. The princess has grown up to be like Chang'e in the sky. How could I not see such a beauty?" Shi

Wu was very pleased with the compliment, but it was a pity that Pei Yu didn't hear it. She

leaned close to Xu Mian's ear and said, "Sister-in-law, I saved Pei Yu."

Xu Mian said happily, "Really? That's great. Is he also in Lingshan?"

The two followed the Queen Mother and Shi Jun in, "He is here too, but he went to help."

Shi Wu was about to say that Pei Yu went to help Yun Hao, but Shi Jun turned around to look at Xu Mian, and she quickly swallowed her words back.

She whispered, "Sister-in-law, you are my brother's princess consort, you can't just give up on him."

Xu Mian stopped, afraid that Shi Jun would hear her, and lowered her voice, "A Yan has been locked in a secret room, how can we rescue him? How many people did the Empress Dowager bring?"

Shi Wu stretched out her hand, and Xu Mian guessed, "Five thousand people?"

"Five hundred."

"What? Help, it's over." Xu Mian was disappointed, knowing that Shi Jun would never let Shi Yan go because of the Queen Mother's order.

She lowered her head and a stone happened to fall under her feet. She kicked it in anger and it happened to hit Shi Jun.

The Queen Mother had already entered the hall. Shi Jun turned around and walked over in two or three steps, picked her up, and didn't care at all, which shocked Shi Wu who was standing beside her and opened her mouth wide.

This brother is too fierce.

"Let go, the Empress Dowager is still here!"

Xu Mian was ashamed and embarrassed, and she never expected that Shi Jun would carry her directly into the main hall and swear sovereignty: "Grandmother, Sun'er has already married Mian Mian, and she is Sun'er's wife."

Xu Mian smiled bitterly, "Grandmother, help me." The Queen Mother

smiled calmly and said, "Jun'er, don't worry, sit down, and let's slowly sort out what happened recently."

Even so, Shi Jun sat on the soft chair under the Queen Mother and held Xu Mian tightly in his arms.

Xu Mian covered her face with both hands, feeling that she was the same as a little milk dog and a little white bear at this time, without human rights.

"Mian Mian, is Jun'er telling the truth?"

Xu Mian was speechless. She was willing to get married, so could she bite back? That would be too unfair.

"Grandmother, my grandson's wife married Ah Yan first, so..."

Shi Jun covered her mouth before she could finish her words.

Shi Wu massaged the Queen Mother's shoulders and joked, "Your Majesty's sister-in-law is right. Everything should be based on first come first served. Grandmother, my sister-in-law married my brother first, so the engagement with Prince Jin doesn't count."

Shi Jun wanted to slap Shi Wu a hundred times, "Grandmother, my grandson's mother, the Empress Dowager, and Mianmian's mother agreed that Mianmian would be betrothed to whoever gave birth to a son first between my mother and my aunt. My grandson was born earlier than the prince. Five months, so Mianmian should be Sun'er's wife. "

The Queen Mother nodded and listened carefully, "Jun'er, even so, we still have to ask Mianmian's opinion, Mianmian, what do you think?"

Shi Jun covered Xu Mian's mouth and said temptingly in her ear: "Mianmian, if what you say is not in line with my wishes, Shi Yan will be beheaded tonight."

Insidious, actually using this to threaten people, Xu Mian pursed her little red lips, hesitant to speak, how to say this? No matter what she said, it was not right, so she simply pretended to close her eyes and fainted.

"Mianmian?"

"Imperial sister-in-law?"

Shi Jun did not doubt it, thinking that it might be because Xu Mian had not had a drop of water for two days and her body was too weak.

"Grandmother, I will take Mian Mian back to the chamber first.

Please wait." "Go ahead and settle her down. Then come back and talk to Grandmother."

Shi Jun carried Xu Mian out of the door. The Queen Mother gave Shi Wu a look, and Shi Wu immediately understood what was going on. She followed him out.

"Wow, I didn't expect this house to have a different world. Brother Jin Wang, how did you survive all these years?"

Shi Jun was worried about Xu Mian and asked the servants to prepare nourishing porridge. After

entering the bamboo garden, he put Xu Mian on the couch and called softly, "Mian Mian?"

The maid brought in nectar water. Shi Jun poured a cup, took a sip and passed it to Xu Mian. Shi Wu was surprised to watch from the side.

Tsk tsk, this brother is so smart. How great would it be if Pei Yu could also understand romance so well?

Xu Mian thought that if he didn't wake up, Shi Jun would definitely keep trying to find a solution, such as finding a doctor or staying here all the time. How could she discuss saving Shi Yan with Shi Wu then? She

pretended to cough, slowly opened her eyes, stretched out her hand and said weakly: "Ajun, I feel dizzy and I will be fine after a nap. You should go and accompany the Empress Dowager."

"You are hungry. I will feed you a bowl of nourishing porridge and you will be fine."

Now that she said that, she really felt hungry, so she ate something.

The maid brought in senbei and lean meat porridge. Shi Jun carefully fed Xu Mian a small bowl of it. Shi Wu watched from the side and said, "The emperor will definitely admit defeat when he sees this. It seems that he has no hope."

Shi Jun was quite pleased with this. "If you can talk, just say more."

Shi Wu analyzed, "The emperor is very domineering and he doesn't go back on his word. He won't take care of people so carefully. He will even order people to stop crying. Why are you crying? Look at how scared you are!"

Xu Mian explained, "That was in the past. Ah Yan is not like that now."

Shi Jun stuffed a mouthful of porridge into her mouth and said proudly, "Shi Wu, continue."

The only person Shi Wu was afraid of in the world was Shi Yan. She was beaten down like a little chicken and was submissive. Now she got the chance to say bad things and was excited.

"My brother is particularly vicious. He beats Pei Yu up every time he sees him, just because he said something to the emperor's wife. How excessive."

Shi Wu imitated Shi Yan, "You dare to talk to Mian Mian, I will beat you until you can't get up... Why did Mian Mian smile at you today, did you seduce her?"

Shi Jun curled his lips and sneered, "He uses his status as a prince to bully others, but now I will let him have a taste of being punished."

His dark eyes flashed with fierce resentment. Shi Wu swallowed his saliva, and Xu Mian begged:

"Ah Jun, I drank the porridge and want to sleep for a while. The emperor's grandmother finally came, you should go and accompany her, and let Shi Wu accompany me."

"Brother Prince Jin, please go quickly. The Empress Dowager misses you!"

Shi Jun stood up and said, "Mianmian, go to sleep first."

He went out and looked at the door of the secret room at the back. There were four guards guarding it. He didn't believe that anything could go wrong, so he went to the main hall in the front yard to talk to the Empress Dowager without any worries.

Shi Wu leaned on the window, "Sister-in-law, he's gone."

Xu Mianma slid off the bed and put on her shoes, "Princess, Ah Yan is locked in the secret room next to it, and there are guards guarding him. Can you beat him?"

Shi Wu said proudly, "Don't worry, it's a piece of cake."

But when she went out and saw four tall and strong guards, Shi Wu was a little scared. Her kung fu could handle one or two, but four was a bit difficult.

"Go back first and think of a way."

At this time, it was dark outside the house. The tunnel had been dug outside the secret room. Pei Yu understood the structure of this house, and because he had placed explosives in the secret room, he knew the location of the detonation.

"Prince Jin must have had someone fill in the place where the explosives were detonated. That place is new and the soil is loose. You should dig according to this shape."

Yun Hao led the guards to dig intensively. "At the current progress, we can dig through to the secret room in another hour and rescue His Highness."
