Shi Yan was stunned for a moment when she asked, and suddenly smiled, his eyebrows curved, and his pupils sparkled with stars.

The feeling of being jealous was too wonderful. He looked at her, without saying a word, but reached out to tuck her messy hair behind her ears.

Xu Mian bit her lip and rolled her eyes. He bent down and kissed her lips gently, with a soothing tenderness.

"Mianmian, I didn't smile at her."

"You obviously smiled. I saw your lips curled up here."

Xu Mian gestured at his lips, and Shi Yan held her hand, "That's my fault. As long as I make you unhappy, it's my fault. From now on, I will never smile at others, only at you." Xu

Mian didn't say anything else because of her good attitude of admitting her mistakes. When Shi Yan asked her like this in the past, she didn't have such a good temper.

"You've been sitting in the carriage all day, you must be tired, I will help you relax."

He helped her lie down and massaged her for a while. Xu Mian felt drowsy and heard Shi Yan throw the cushion down and get off the bed...

"Mianmian?"

. . . . , Xu Mian half-closed her eyelashes, dazed and drowned in the gentle vortex.

"A Yan..."

"Mian Mian is still angry?"

Her cheeks were slightly red, and tears were slightly oozing from her beautiful eyes, which were bright and beautiful under the candlelight.

"......Not angry anymore..."

. . . . .

Shi Yan stood up, held her in his arms with her clothes closed, and Xu Mian lay softly on his chest.

"Mian Mian, I can also be very gentle, very gentle, and never think about him again, okay?"

"Yeah." Xu Mian agreed weakly.

Two days later, in Fuzhou, it was almost dark, but they had not yet reached the posthouse in the city.

Shi Yan always had a bad feeling when he got here, so he told the guards to be careful.

"Your Highness, we can reach Fuzhou Posthouse in another hour."

Just as night fell, animals could be heard in the wilderness.

Xu Mian got into Shi Yan's arms, "A Yan, is that the cry of a wolf?"

Shi Yan glanced outside the curtain with a solemn expression. For some reason, the closer he got to the capital, the more he felt the danger approaching.

"Don't be afraid, Mian Mian."

As soon as the words fell, a cold dark wind suddenly blew, and then the guards shouted, "Protect the Queen Mother, protect Your Highness!"

A group of men in black fell from the sky and rushed straight towards the carriage where Shi Yan and Xu Mian were sitting.

The guards and the twelve zodiac animals surrounded the carriage and fought with the men in black.

The queen mother lifted the curtain and hurriedly ordered: "What are you still doing? Go and protect the prince! Go!"

The head female guard said: "Queen Mother, what are you going to do?"

"Their target is not me, go!"

"Yes, queen."

Shi Yan held Xu Mian in his arms and looked outside through the curtain, wondering who was the person who tried to assassinate him several times?

The men in black were well-trained and killed many guards. The twelve zodiac animals were highly skilled in martial arts and resisted them together with the female guards.

Xu Mian stretched out her head and looked for a while, "A Yan, they are so powerful, will our people be unable to defeat them?" Shi

Yan had already prepared for the worst. He kissed her forehead and reminded her,

"Mian Mian, if I go out to deal with them later, you will follow the Empress Dowager, okay?"

Xu Mian heard the hidden meaning and hugged him tightly, "No, A Yan, I want to be with you."

She was wondering if these people were sent by Shi Jun.

"Mianmian, their target is me, you listen, I will take out the carriage to lead them away, and you go to the Empress Dowager, be good."

Xu Mian cried anxiously, "Ayan, I'm not going anywhere, I just want to be with you, don't chase me away."

Shi Yan stroked her head and said in a deep voice: "Okay, we won't separate."

When the situation was unfavorable, dozens of Taoist priests in gray and blue robes suddenly appeared. They were highly skilled in martial arts and quickly turned the situation around.

Shi Yan saw Taoist Lin at a glance, and within a cup of tea, the Taoist priests, the twelve zodiac animals, and the female guards together drove back the group of ruthless men in black.

Shi Wu shouted in the carriage: "I have seen this Taoist priest before. He is the master who saved Pei Yu last time!"

Pei Yu knew that it was Taoist priest Lin who saved him last time. He walked straight over and bowed, saying: "Thank you for saving my life."

Taoist priest Lin patted his shoulder lightly without saying anything more.

Shi Yan got off the carriage and bowed, saying: "Taoist priest, you saved me again. Please accept my greetings."

Taoist priest Lin glanced at the carriage in front and said, "Your Highness, we should not stay here for long. Let's go to the Fuzhou post house as soon as possible and talk in detail."

Shi Yan shouted: "Let's go!"

In the carriage in front, the Queen Mother looked back several times and felt that the figure of Taoist priest Lin was very familiar.

Late at night, in the Fuzhou post house.

By then, the carriages were exhausted, and the injured guards were examined by doctors. Shi Yan called Shi Wu to the second floor to accompany Xu Mian, and only left the room after many instructions. The Queen Mother

lived in the large guest room next door.

The door was knocked open, "Grandmother, Taoist Lin wants to see you."

"Come in."

Shi Yan didn't know why Taoist Lin insisted on meeting the Queen Mother and asked him to report to everyone, as if he wanted to tell a big secret.

As soon as he entered the room, Taoist Lin bowed deeply, then put down his whisk and knelt down.

This didn't look like an ordinary audience.

Taoist Lin slowly took off the human skin mask, revealing a face that shocked the Queen Mother and Shi Yan.

"Mother."

The Queen Mother cried and got up from the soft chair. "Emperor, mother's child."

The mother and son embraced each other in tears. Shi Yan opened his mouth in shock. No, how did Taoist Lin become the emperor? Who is the emperor in the palace?

Is it Prince Huan? Oh my God, the father I have called the emperor for 18 years is fake?

The mother and son sat down hand in hand, looking at each other for a long time, full of emotion.

The Queen Mother wiped her tears and called out, "Yan'er, why don't you go and pay your respects to your father." Shi Yan

knelt down hurriedly, confused, "Grandmother, what happened?"

Taoist Lin told the story, "My father was careless and was stabbed several times in the chest by Prince Huan. Fortunately, my father's heart was shifted, so he did not die. He was then rescued from the palace by the former chief steward of the palace, who was also A Quan's master."

Shi Yan really couldn't accept this reality. Obviously, his father in the palace had been very good to him since he was a child, so how could it be Prince Huan?

Wait, he is King Huan, Shi Jun's father. "Could it be that King Huan was the one who assassinated me these times?"

Taoist Lin nodded and said, "Yan'er, before Shi Jun appeared, King Huan might not have done anything bad to you, but after his biological son appeared, everything changed. The reason why your father told you the truth now is that he hopes you can be prepared when you return to the palace this time." The Queen

Mother agreed, "Yan'er, your father is right. It is for this reason that your grandmother returned to the palace with you from Lingshan. This time, there will be an unpredictable fierce battle. You must be mentally prepared." Shi Yan

was paralyzed on the ground. They were a happy family of three. How could their father be a wolf in sheep's clothing? What should the Queen Mother do?
