Chapter 78 Won't You Protect Me?
The shops in Tingfeng Building are all localized, such as the shop "Jiangnan Buzhi" that He Yunxiao often goes to. "Jiangnan Buzhi" was born from the Jiangnan area in the south of Qi State. Jiangnan is far away from Yan State, and the transportation of cloth is quite unfavorable.
, so there are no these Qi Guo shops in Tingfeng Tower in Jingtian City.
But there are other merchants with Yan Kingdom characteristics.
For example, there are shops selling Kitahara deer skins and prairie horses.
He Yunxiao even saw a large piece of snow-white animal skin, and he wondered if it could be a polar bear.
He Yunxiao found a barbecue restaurant in Tingfeng Building. This restaurant claimed to be "Prairie Style BBQ". He Yunxiao didn't care if it was true or not, it was just for discussing things with Ren Xianxian.
As soon as he entered the store, He Yunxiao realized that his layout was small.
This store covered the terrace of Tingfeng Building, covered it with sand, and planted grass to truly recreate the barbecue scene on the grassland. Not only that, the store also raised horses and rabbits on the small grassland to truly restore the grassland ecology. But this
The horse has a fat belly and is not as muscular as a real wild horse.
He Yunxiao ordered some meat, grilled it over the fire, and chatted with Ren Xianxian while eating.
The wind was strong at a high place. He Yunxiao saw Ren Xianxian shivering due to the cold wind, so he propped up the internal barrier to block the wind. He recalled the first time he blocked Sister Jiang from the wind. At that time, he could only hold the two of them apart.
The barrier, but now it could cover four or five people, He Yunxiao couldn't help but sigh.
It turns out that time has passed...
Oh, it’s only been more than a month...
"Have you seen my emperor?" Ren Xianxian said.
He Yunxiao nodded, "I saw the woman."
It should be quite a big news that Emperor Yan is actually a woman, but now, except for Ren Xianxian's maid, Nu Gu, who expressed shock, the rest of the group remained silent.
Xiaoxiao doesn't care at all, but Nanzhu is used to it. After all, her sister is a woman. What's wrong with being a woman? Can't she be the Emperor of Yan?
Ren Xianxian looked at He Yunxiao and said, "Aren't you surprised?"
He Yunxiao shrugged, "I was surprised, but it has passed. If she is a woman, she is a woman."
"But I want to marry her! I can't be as open-minded as you."
He Yunxiao nodded and said: "I know, that's why I came to you. I can help you, but you also have to help me."
Ren Xianxian said: "How do you want to help me?"
"In the wedding of Emperor Yan, for the sake of balance, he must marry girls from both the 'Ren' and 'Jiang' families to be queens at the same time, right?"
"yes."
"There is only one girl of the right age in the Jiang family, and she's not in Jingtian yet, right?"
"yes."
"Princess Jiang's family is in my country of Qi. If I don't let her go back to the country of Yan, Emperor Yan won't be able to get married, and you won't be able to get married. Does this count as helping you?"
"Are you from Qi State?" Ren Xianxian asked Kong Zhenzhi.
"No matter which country I am from, the only one who can help you now is me. Okay, you've finished asking your questions, it's my turn."
Ren Xianxian bit her lip and thought, then her eyes were firm, "Say."
He Yunxiao smiled. She was willing to answer, which meant that the transaction was successful. It was impossible for Sister Jiang to give it to Emperor Yan in the first place, but now she used it to scare Ren Xianxian, which was an excellent plan.
"Emperor Yan has a grandfather, and I want to know about him."
As the legitimate daughter of the Ren family, Ren Xianxian knew much more inside information than ordinary people. After thinking for a moment, she told He Yunxiao everything about Li Xiangjun's grandfather.
Roughly speaking, Li Xiangjun's grandfather Li Wanshi was the head of the Li family. He also served as Emperor Yan when he was young. Later, according to the rules, he abdicated to the "Jiang" and "Ren" families.
According to Ren Xianxian's description, Emperor Yan can only serve for one term, and it has a limited number of years. When the time comes, he will have to step down and be replaced.
If Li Wanshi is really greedy for power, it is indeed a good choice to train a puppet granddaughter to take power for him. At least the granddaughter will not compete with him for power like the grandson. The grandson is also the orthodox Emperor Yan and has the opportunity to compete for power, and the granddaughter
Due to her identity as a woman, she needs a mask to show off to others, so she can only be controlled by Li Wanshi.
From this point of view, it seems that Li Xiangjun did not lie.
He Yunxiao asked tentatively: "Have you ever heard of the name 'Li Xiangjun'?"
Ren Xianxian shook her head.
The legitimate daughter of the Ren family has never heard of it, which means that "Li Xiangjun" is not well-known in the Li family.
"Do you know what kind of character Emperor Yan is?"
Ren Xianxian shook her head again, "My emperor never meets with me in private. He always talks politely in front of a lot of people."
Seeing that he couldn't ask about the Li family's affairs, He Yunxiao asked about the Jiang family's affairs.
"Have you ever heard of the name 'Jiang Wuyou'?"
"No."
"What about 'Jiang Wuqi'?"
Ren Xianxian nodded and said: "Jiang Wuqi is the only son of Jiang Wenhu, the third son of the head of the Jiang family. His father, Jiang Wenhu, is a general with military exploits and defeated the Southern King. Jiang Wuqi has good martial arts talent, and in Yan
Among the young generation in the country, he ranks among the top five. Therefore, he is highly valued by the Jiang family."
He Yunxiao recalled Jiang Wuqi's words, saying that Sister Jiang was his "cousin".
Since they are "cousins", it means that Sister Jiang's father and Jiang Wenhu are brothers.
"What about the other sons of the head of the Jiang family?"
Ren Xianxian recalled: "The eldest brother of King Po Nan is serving in the court and is a powerless national advisor. The second brother... seems to have eloped with an oiran. This was very famous back then..."
He Yunxiao:......
A child of the royal family eloped with an courtesan... lived a life of men farming and women weaving on the border of Qiyan... gave birth to a beautiful daughter, but did not tell her about her life experience... suddenly suffered a disaster, and the family's wealth was exhausted, so they had to sell their daughters to beg for money.
Live... Time has arrived, and the Jiang family needs a woman of the right age to be the queen... The family found Sister Jiang and her father... The fugitive children of the royal family finally couldn't bear the pressure and could only give up their dreams and go home to inherit millions of family assets...
Sister Jiang's matter finally went smoothly...
In this case...then what happened to the so-called "civilian parents" of Sister Jiang that Qi Guo's secret agents discovered?
If these "common parents" were just a bait thrown by Emperor Yan to lure Qi's spies into action and test Sister Jiang's loyalty, then if the Qi spies failed to save people, wouldn't it mean that Sister Jiang's rebellion and part of Qi's spies had been exposed?
Based on Emperor Yan's brain, she should be able to imagine that someone will come to Jingtian City to save people again...
No, this matter may not have been done by Emperor Yan, it could also be the work of her grandfather Li Wanshi...
He Yunxiao thought for a while, and his mind was about to explode with all kinds of incomplete information and suspicions. He envied Emperor Yan's intelligence network very much, and even missed the brains of Meng Bao and Xiang Bao.
It would be great if Meng Bao and Xiu Bao were here. You could ask them directly without having to think about it yourself.
He Yunxiao sighed, he was helpless with this little information at the moment.
"Can I eat this?"
"Can."
This voice sounds so familiar...
He Yunxiao looked up and suddenly found that there was a woman beside him.
Meng Qingrou looked at Li Xiangjun and murmured: "Sister?"
Li Xiangjun followed He Yunxiao's example, sitting cross-legged on the ground, chewing the meat skewers he grilled, looking at Meng Qingrou, and said curiously: "What sister?"
"Yan... why did you come out?" He Yunxiao's face was full of shock. He looked left and right and saw that this girl was sitting next to him alone. She didn't even bring a bodyguard. Even Ren Xianxian brought his maid out.
"Can't I come out?" Li Xiangjun said innocently.
"You didn't bring any guards?"
"What do I do with an escort?"
"What should I do if I encounter danger?"
Li Xiangjun looked at He Yunxiao and smiled: "Don't you know how to protect me?"
"I..." He Yunxiao was speechless.
Xiaoxiao looked at Li Xiangjun warily. She had never seen Li Qingmeng, so naturally she didn't think there was anything familiar about this face.
