The reborn princess kills the whole capital

Chapter 403 The coquettish kitten

Wen Yan pursed his lips slightly, and a smile appeared on his lips involuntarily.

A pair of eyes were as bright as stars, and little bits of light fell on her face.

Jinyan's face darkened, the smell of him hit her face, and just when she was about to speak, he suddenly pulled her into his arms.

When she reacted, he had already pinched her waist and placed her on his lap.

A pair of strong hands restrained her body, and the man's breath on her neck passed through her skin like layers of heat waves to her heart.

"Wen Yan!"

She was a little pissed.

However, the words he spoke were both angry and delicate, and his watery eyes were stained with anger. He couldn't move even if he tried to break away, so he simply gave up his strength.

"Well, I'm here."

The tip of his nose rubbed against her shoulder, very lightly, like a coquettish kitten.

Jin Yan gritted her teeth and tried not to let her heart soften.

"What are you doing?"

She asked with a straight face, stiffened her body, and looked at him coldly.

The man's body trembled, and he looked carefully. After seeing the coldness in her eyes, his eyes narrowed, and his thin lips pursed into a thin line in just a moment.

Jin Yan's heart softened a bit, but she still held on and whispered, "Where was your discipline and self-control just now?"

"No, there is no self-control."

He replied almost immediately and frowned again, "Don't be angry."

"Xiao Tong's mother was a woman whom the emperor loved deeply. She obviously did not want to return to the capital after living among the people. The emperor searched vigorously for several years before finding them in a border town. However, she died in the palace not long after returning."

Seeing some interest on Jin Yan's face, Wen Yancai continued, "So the emperor's feelings towards Xiao Tong are very complicated. He even doesn't believe that Xiao Tong is his son."

"They look alike."

Jin Yan opened her mouth and said something.

Wen Yan raised his eyebrows, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, quietly put his chin on her shoulder, rubbed it, and then said quietly, "The emperor has a younger brother, Prince Yun, who was also a very talented person back then. The late queen and King Yun was his childhood sweetheart, and everyone knew that they had the same feelings. But King Yun died on the battlefield, and because of the instability in the court, the first emperor arranged for the emperor to marry the first queen in order to make the first queen's mother's family support him. ."

"How did you know?"

"There are relevant documents recorded in the royal family, the words the emperor often expressed, the looks of some concubines in the harem, plus Xiao Tong's words... there will always be clues."

That's right, Wen Yan is the one who stays out of the matter, so he can always cut through the fog and see the truth inside.

"Does the Emperor believe it now, or does he not believe it?"

This is a very important question.

Wen Yan played with her hair, and his slender white fingers wrapped around the shiny black hair.

The white is extremely white and the black is extremely black, but they are exceptionally harmonious.

"I don't know."

A quiet voice came, and even Wen Yan couldn't think of an answer.

"Where's the truth? President Xiao should know, right?"

"Yes."

Wen Yan said two more words.

He added, "I heard that His Royal Highness Prince Yun attached great importance to his mother. He wanted to win a share of military exploits on the battlefield and come back to marry her, so... he would not touch her before then."

"Why?"

Jin Yan subconsciously answered.

Wen Yan paused for a moment, then quickly returned to his natural state, and just smiled and said, "If you really care about someone, you will think deeply about it. There is no trace of a sword on the battlefield. No matter how confident he is, he will not take advantage of the person he loves." Let's bet in the future. If he can come back, he will naturally exchange his military exploits for her engagement. If he doesn't come back, she can escape unscathed."

Therefore, both he and Xiao Tong felt that someone like King Yun would not touch her before then, but the person above did not believe it.

Or he always believes and disbelieves.

There was a long silence in the carriage, and only the sound of the wheels was particularly clear in the dark night, as if it was crushing people's hearts.

Jin Yan returned to Prince Jin's Mansion the next day.

She believed that Su Xihe might know the truth about this matter.

"Xiao Tong is the emperor's son."

Su Xihe said firmly, and then said, "I didn't expect that he would still have such doubts?!"

In these years, she had never cared about the affairs of the court or outside, and naturally she did not inquire about Xiao Tong's situation. In addition, the emperor was always a person who was good at showing off. Su Xihe always thought that he was the prince whom the emperor valued and his position was stable.

If she knew that the assassination in Pingzhou City had the emperor's acquiescence, her jaw would probably drop.

"Why is Aniang so sure? There is no evidence for this matter."

Su Xihe glanced at Jin Yan, "The prince was indeed born prematurely, but premature children are completely different from full-term children. Anyone with a little experience in this kind of thing can see that. He was so small at the time that he almost thought he could not be raised. live."

"But Your Majesty..."

"The emperor may not know it. If others don't know it, why doesn't he himself know it? If he is really not his child, do you think he can survive?"

Su Xi and Liang Liang said something.

Jin Yan felt frightened when she heard this.

"Do you know how the late Queen's mother's family, the Feng family, was destroyed?"

"After the civil unrest, they were all accused of rebellion and were all executed."

Jinyan didn't need to ask, Su Xihe had already answered his question.

But this matter has been too long ago, so long ago that no one mentioned it, or no one dared to mention it.

At that time, this incident had a huge impact, and countless aristocratic families fell. Since then, there have been very few powerful families in the capital. Even if they still exist, they can't make any waves.

Maybe a Feng family is nothing, or maybe because of the special status of the Feng family, people ignore it.

"So my grandfather retired and returned to his hometown without entering the capital for so many years. Did he actually escape a disaster?"

Jin Yan murmured in a low voice, feeling cold all over and losing feeling in her limbs.

In fact, she had always had a good impression of the emperor. At least he was diligent and caring for the people, reduced taxes, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. Although he was not prosperous, there was no public resentment.

Su Xihe sighed, and by now, no answer was needed.

"Your father and the emperor grew up together and had a close relationship. After I married your father, he had a long talk with your grandfather. Not long after, your grandfather returned home with his entire family and became a Idle man.”

"Friendly."

Jinyan repeated these two words, whether it was intimacy or understanding. Because of understanding, she knew that staying would not end well.

During the civil strife, the friendship between the emperor and the queen who fled has been praised by the people. It is said that the queen washed her hands and made soup for the emperor and turned herself into a peasant woman. But in the end, he returned to the capital and destroyed her home. It was like heaven again. Like grace coming, take her back.

Even whether he will be taken back or kidnapped is unknown to outsiders.

All of this is like a gorgeous and perfect shell, no one can pry into what is inside, or everyone has their own answer.
