Chapter 485 I didn't expect to fall into her hands

Xiao Jinxuan is very busy.

He was busy with the battle at Beiguan, busy with preparations for his ascension to the throne, busy with taming the opposition parties and dealing with the scum within them, and busy with searching for the whereabouts of the crown prince.

At the same time as the Crown Prince disappeared, Princess Jing'an and her family of three also disappeared from the capital.

Another person also disappeared, and that was Princess Yunheng.

Xiang Fei thought she had gone out to play until she couldn't find her anywhere and realized she was missing.

Xie Zhuoning didn't know this.

She stayed at home obediently and took good care of her baby.

Song Yuqiu said that she was already seriously injured and that being pregnant was a stroke of luck. She was so scared that she didn't dare to go anywhere.

Just as she was bored and cracking melon seeds, a servant came to report, "Princess, Concubine Zhu wants to see you."

Xie Zhuoning then remembered that Shen Yanyu had dealt with it, but there was still one person in the mansion who had not been dealt with.

She asked someone to invite Zhu Rujin in, and Zhu Rujin came forward and greeted her, "Greetings to the princess, no, maybe I should change the name and call her the queen."

"It doesn't matter, it's just a name." Xie Zhuoning was just about to test what Zhu Rujin's plans were for the future, to see how to deal with her more appropriately.

Unexpectedly, she took the initiative to speak first, "To be honest, our family sent us here to monitor His Royal Highness Prince Xuan on behalf of the Queen and the Crown Prince. I had no choice but to accept it. Now that the Queen and the Crown Prince are gone, I don't have to continue to stay in the palace. Please allow me a way out, Princess. I have read thousands of books and I also want to travel thousands of miles."

That's great, Xie Zhuoning doesn't have to spend time making arrangements.

She immediately asked her servants to prepare everything for Zhu Rujin.

"Thank you, Princess. I have something to give you for your care." Zhu Rujin brought a box over and opened the lid to Xie Zhuoning.

A puff of colorful smoke came out, and Xie Zhuoning fainted instantly.

Zhu Rujin lowered her eyes and said softly, "I'm sorry."

When Xie Zhuoning woke up, he didn't expect that the first person he saw would be Princess Yunheng.

"Sister Ning, you're finally awake. You almost scared me to death."

She was a little shocked. "Why are you here?"

Princess Yunheng held her face with her hands and sighed, "How else could it be? Of course I was captured. I was just having fun and got tricked. Sister Ning, what about you? How did you get captured?"

Xie Zhuoning: "..."

She? She delivered herself into the hands of the thieves.

Perhaps it was because Zhu Rujin pretended to be too good, or because she had never done anything out of the ordinary in her past or present life, so he subconsciously ignored her.

As a result, everything she had asked others to prepare for her turned out to be a means for her to take herself away from Prince Xuan's Palace quietly.

After all, who checks what they have prepared?

As they were talking, the door was pushed open and Zhu Rujin walked in with a tray. "You two, please have something to eat."

Xie Zhuoning looked at her with a gloomy gaze, "I never thought I would fall into your hands."

Zhu Rujin was also quite surprised by this. "I didn't think I could catch you. Maybe after a woman becomes pregnant, her focus is all on her child, so other reactions will be slower. There's a saying that goes, pregnancy makes a woman stupid for three years."

Xie Zhuoning was so angry that he laughed, "Looking at the weather outside and the architectural style, we are at least a thousand miles away from the capital. Can you tell me why you arrested me?"

Zhu Rujin shook her head: “I don’t know.”

Her mission is just to catch.

What she does with him after catching him is none of her business.

"Then why did you help them capture me?" Xie Zhuoning racked his brains, but could not figure out the relationship between Zhu Ming, the Minister of Rites from the Prince's Party, and Princess Jing'an, nor could he find the reason why she helped Princess Jing'an and others capture her.

Zhu Rujin thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it's because I want to kill my father."

Her father was a good man in everyone's eyes. He held a high position and did not take concubines. But to her mother, her father was a devil.

Her father kept all his good temper for outsiders. He was well-educated, well-mannered and a gentleman.

But after returning home, he was full of cruelty and tortured her mother to the point where her life was worse than death.

She wanted to pick up the knife and stab the beast countless times, but was stopped by her mother every time.

Mother said, he is your father, you cannot become a patricide, otherwise you and your children will not be able to hold your heads up in the future.

She was also forced to swear not to do anything wrong.

"So I have to find someone else to kill him. I can't just kill him. I want him to die the most horrible death in the world."

In exchange, she would help them once.

It was the time when Xie Zhuoning was kidnapped.

After that, she stood up and said, "Okay, I've said what I need to say. You guys just stay here and have a good time. The coronation ceremony will be held soon."

"Coronation ceremony?" Xie Zhuoning and Princess Yunheng looked at each other in confusion.

But they soon found out what was going on.

Princess Jing'an sent people to capture the prince and held a coronation ceremony for him in Yongcheng, more than 900 miles away from the capital.

The reason why Yun Heng was also captured was because Xiao Bicheng planned to send Yun Heng to Northern Qi as a marriage partner in exchange for Northern Qi's support for him and to help him hold back the Zhenbei Army.

At the same time, he summoned the Xichuan Army's commander, Duke Xin, and the Southern Ming Army's commander, Marquis Changxing Yang Lie, intending to rely on the strength of the two armies to fight back to Kyoto.

However, he was too naive.

After Duke Xin arrived, he immediately switched sides and sided with Princess Jing'an.

At that moment, Xiao Bicheng couldn't control the expression on his face at all.

Even Shen Shuyu suddenly turned against him.

It was not until the human skin mask was taken off that he realized that the concubine he had doted on for so long was actually someone else.

Yan Hongyue sneered, "When I think about how you took advantage of me before, I feel so disgusted. You did it but you didn't, and you even drooled in my face."

Xiao Bi City collapsed on the spot, breaking the defense and cursing.

However, no one cared about his defense.

At this moment, he was just a puppet in the hands of Princess Jing'an.

The purpose of sending him to the throne was to enable him to abdicate in a natural way later on.

Of course, it would be great if they could control him and make the Southern Ming Army work for them.

Soon, Yang Lie arrived with his men, and as soon as he arrived, he knelt down and shouted, "I swear to be loyal to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince until death!"

With these words, Xiao Bicheng felt more confident and had some say in front of Princess Jing'an.

He thought Princess Jing'an and Duke Zhao were helping him and wanted to take advantage of the situation, but when he saw more and more Zhou survivors appearing, he began to feel that something was wrong.

But we have come this far, no matter what, there is no turning back.

The day he ascended the throne was also the day Princess Yunheng was sent to Northern Qi.

Xie Zhuoning was so confused that he didn't even have time to see her for the last time.

After ascending the throne, Princess Jing'an and others commanded the army, marching northward to capture cities and territories.

When attacking a transportation hub, it was heard that Xiao Jinxuan had also arrived and was personally in charge of the command.

Yan Hongyue came to see Xie Zhuoning and smiled tenderly and charmingly, "Should I call you Princess Xuan or the Queen? Or should I call you Miss Xie. Do you think our new emperor will open the city gates for your surrender?"
