392. Chapter 392 Nangong Shuo must have done this for Xiao Yu
After a moment, Nangong Shuo turned away his worried and distressed eyes, and turned his gaze to Wang Taifei.
"Are you satisfied with my handling of the matter?"
Regarding Nangong Shuo's question, the corners of Wang Taifei's mouth froze, feeling a little embarrassed.
Then, he laughed stiffly and said: "The emperor is serious. The Ai family is just angry that she tried to murder the emperor in such a way. As for how to deal with the emperor, the Ai family has no opinion."
She stood up from the chair with a smile and continued: "Your Majesty must be busy with business, so the Ai family won't disturb you."
"Then I won't send my mother and concubine as gifts."
Nangong Shuo didn't make any pretense to persuade her to stay. After the princess left, a sneer curled up on his lips.
But soon, that smile was covered by a layer of gloom. Thinking of Shangguan Yu who was relegated to the cold palace, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
"Xiaoyu, you will understand me, right?"
He stared blankly outside the house and whispered softly. The autumn wind stirred up the falling golden autumn leaves, bringing with it a depressing coolness.
The news that Shangguan Yu was relegated to the cold palace soon spread. Not only the imperial palace, but also Shangguan City, which was far away, also knew about it.
In the general's tent, Shangguancheng was not as panicked as he imagined. Instead, he was calmer than when he first left the capital.
"General, the eldest lady has been thrown into the cold palace. Is it because the emperor wants to use the eldest lady to contain you..."
Yuan Fei stood in front of the tent, looked at Shangguancheng who was calm and composed, and said with a solemn expression.
Shangguan Cheng put down the military book in his hand and was silent for a moment before shaking his head, "Nangong Shuo must have done this for Xiao Yu's benefit."
Although he and Nangong Shuo were opposites, he looked at some things very objectively.
For example, Xiao Yu insisted on going to Hejin County. If Nangong Shuo hadn't risked his life to save Xiao Yu several times, Xiao Yu would have died long ago.
As a father, he can feel his feelings for Xiao Yu.
only......
He and Nangong Shuo were destined to be at odds. No one could give up first. The one who gave up would lose not only the kingdom, but also the entire clan.
What he didn't expect was that his daughter would actually fall in love with the young emperor.
"The general means..."
Yuan Fei didn't quite understand what Shangguancheng said, but Shangguancheng himself knew it very well.
He stopped Yuan Fei from continuing to ask, and just said: "Don't worry about this, Xiaoyu is safe over there."
Yuan Fei knew how much Shangguan Cheng loved his precious daughter. If he hadn't been absolutely sure of Shangguan Yu's safety, he wouldn't have been so calm.
"By the way, have you found the killers who assassinated Xiao Yu?"
Hearing this, Yuan Fei's expression showed a hint of strangeness and embarrassment.
After working under Shangguan Cheng for so many years, none of his expressions could escape Shangguan Cheng's eyes.
Seeing him frowning and saying nothing, he lowered his voice and said, "If you find out anything, just tell me."
"Yes, General."
Knowing that he couldn't hide it, Yuan Fei told everything he said he had found out, "The people who sent people to assassinate the eldest lady secretly were...the second lady and the eldest young master."
Yuan Fei's answer didn't seem to surprise Shangguan Cheng much. His majestic face was surprisingly calm.
