Chapter 299 The Mysterious Master of the Prince
An Yunxi's eyes flickered slightly, and then she smiled and replied: "It's just a joke, how can you take it seriously?"
Hu Li'er wiped her eyes, but her eyes brightened: "The reason why the emperor treats Li'er so well is that he regards Li'er as a substitute for the princess, and Li'er also takes advantage of this. Now that she has the emperor's exclusive favor, Xu Mei'er is very angry. I believe it won't be long before she can suffer a little!"
In front of An Yunxi, Hu Li'er changed her previous foxy aura and was full of energy. She
looked like she was working hard to make progress.
Seeing this scene, the Queen Dowager couldn't help but smile.
"You don't look like you are competing for favor, but more like..."
For a moment, the Queen Dowager couldn't find the right words to describe Hu Li'er's appearance.
An Yunxi's eyes also had a smile: "Yeah, like doing an errand."
Hu Li'er, however, said solemnly: "This was originally an errand assigned to me by the princess. Li'er must do it well no matter what, otherwise she will let down her parents and relatives in the underworld."
At this point, Hu Li'er's tone became obviously lost.
She is now broken and her heart is filled with hatred.
As for how Ling Changyue views her and treats her, it is nothing more than something she can use.
If she can kill Madam Xu's most beloved daughter and avenge her family, she can do anything.
Anyway, if the princess hadn't given her hope, she would have died long ago.
An Yunxi finally pulled Hu Li'er up from the ground and let her sit on the chair.
After knowing the identity of Xu Meir's mother, and with the many contradictory information interrogated from the old Taoist priest, An Yunxi finally found out the people who had been persecuted by the Xu family mother and daughter.
Xu Meir was weak and sickly when she was very young, but she got well for no reason later. It was because she used the old abbot and others to rob other people's fate. This was not the first time she did it.
And the previous victim was Hu Lier in front of him. The
family was broken and the people died. That Madam Xu had such a cruel heart
. Every misfortune in Hu Lier's family was caused by Madam Xu.
If she had not fallen to Beiling, the other party's hand would not have reached here, and Hu Lier would have died miserably.
An Yunxi thought of her experiences in the previous life, which were almost the same as Hu Lier's.
If it weren't for Ling Fengxun, she would probably be in a worse situation.
An Yunxi warned: "This matter cannot be rushed. You must be careful in the palace. If anything happens, remember to protect yourself first."
Hu Li'er's heart warmed instantly.
She looked at An Yunxi's eyes, full of emotion.
If it weren't for the Queen Mother watching here, she would like to shake the princess's hand and thank her.
"By the way, Princess, I did find out some news about the Regent Prince from the Emperor."
An Yunxi's face suddenly became serious, and her eyes became serious.
Although she acted like she didn't care about the handle in Ling Changyue's hand last time. But
when it comes to Ling Fengxun, how could she not care!
"What handle does he have on the prince?"
Hu Li'er hesitated and glanced at the Queen Mother subconsciously.
Then she carefully handed a purse to An Yunxi.
"I have written down what I heard. Princess, go back and read it slowly. I am here to pay my respects to the Queen Mother today. It will be quite a while. If I don't leave, it will definitely arouse suspicion."
"Okay."
An Yunxi nodded, and Hu Lier put on the fox fur again and walked out of the room.
The Queen Mother smiled and said, "This girl is very careful."
She was not angry about it. After all, it was about the handle of the Regent King. The fewer people who knew about it, the better.
Although she was a little curious in her heart, she had decided to stand on the same front with An Yunxi now, and she would not think about her own selfish desires.
An Yunxi took the purse in her hand, said goodbye to the Queen Mother, and then got on the carriage and returned to the palace as quickly as possible.
Ling Fengxun did not go out today, and he had been reading memorials in the study.
Hearing that An Yunxi had returned, he immediately put down his work, strode out of the study and walked out.
But before he reached the main courtyard, he saw An Yunxi already walking towards him, even trotting to him. The cold wind blew, and her ears were covered with a layer of red.
Seeing her hurried expression, Ling Fengxun raised his hand to cover her cheek. The cold touch melted in his palm. He asked with a smile: "What's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?"
An Yunxi directly grabbed his wrist: "Prince, come with me."
She took Ling Fengxun into an empty room, opened her purse, took out the note inside and handed it to Ling Fengxun.
On the way back, An Yunxi had already taken a look at the note inside. There
were not many words, just one sentence.
The Regent King has a master who colluded with the enemy and sold out the country.
When Ling Fengxun saw this sentence, his expression was obviously stunned for a moment, and then he seemed to be lost in memory and was dazed for a moment.
An Yunxi blinked, and her heart was lifted up for a moment. She didn't know what this sentence meant.
"The prince has a master?"
Ling Fengxun's eyes dimmed a little.
Then he pulled An Yunxi to sit in the room, on the chair next to the fireplace.
"Yes, I do have a master. My martial arts and the ability to lead troops in battle were all taught by this person."
However, not many people knew about this.
Only two or three of his trusted subordinates.
He was also very surprised why this matter was leaked.
An Yunxi grabbed Ling Fengxun's wrist, "Your Highness, please tell me in detail what happened and how this matter could become a handle in the hands of the royal family?"
Ling Fengxun touched An Yunxi's head with his other hand, trying to reassure her.
"I didn't tell you about this because I promised my master that I would not reveal anything about him. Besides, he has been missing for so many years and I don't know whether he is dead or alive. I thought I would never encounter anything about him again."
An Yunxi did not interrupt Ling Fengxun, but just sat beside him and listened carefully.
An Yunxi was also very curious about the past of her own prince.
Ling Fengxun had no intention of hiding it from An Yunxi and told her everything in detail.
"I met this master on the battlefield when I was fifteen years old. At that time, I was just an ordinary soldier in the army. During the battle, I was seriously injured and dying, and was saved by this man."
"That man treated my injuries and taught me martial arts and strategies for three years. Three years later, I was able to stand on my own. However, one day when I went to ask him, he disappeared without a trace, not even a word."
Ling Fengxun finished telling the past of his youth in just a few sentences.
However, An Yunxi felt particularly sad when she listened.
Fifteen years old, went to the battlefield, seriously injured and dying
In just a short sentence, she didn't dare to imagine how desperate he was at that time.
Therefore, An Yunxi couldn't help but feel a little grateful and curious about this person in her heart.
How powerful must the master be to be able to teach a disciple like Ling Fengxun?
She couldn't imagine it.
"What is the name of the master of the prince? Where is he from? How could he be related to collaborating with the enemy and selling out the country?"
