Chapter 277 Xiao Wenqin's Reminder
Lin Bao bowed calmly and said, "Thank you, proton, for your compliment... Thank you, proton, do you need to go to the post station on the side to rest for a while, or should we just continue on our way..."
Xie Xunfeng looked at Xiao Yiran who was standing beside him. Xiao Yiran said to Xie Xunfeng, "We should go back now... I'm afraid that Father and Grand Tutor Yan are waiting for us..."
Xie Xunfeng nodded at Xiao Yiran.
The Fourth Prince on the side said to Xie Xunfeng, "Xie the hostage, if the Third Sister needs to rest, we can rest for a while... The situation in the court will not be affected by the presence of Grand Tutor Yan and others..."
After hearing what the Fourth Prince said, Xie Xunfeng knew that Xiao Wenqin meant well.
During Xiao Wenqin's trip to the Great Zhou, he was full of admiration for Xie Xunfeng and made up his mind to maintain a good relationship with Xie Xunfeng no matter what Xie Xunfeng did.
After hearing what Xiao Wenqin said, Xiao Yiran said to Xiao Wenqin, "Fourth brother, I am not that delicate... Moreover, I heard that although we are not in Daxia, Daxia is not peaceful... It is said that many princes are ready to make a move, and many people are slandering us..."
After hearing what Xiao Yiran said, Xiao Wenqin said with a surprised expression, "Third sister, how did you know?"
Xiao Yiran subconsciously glanced at Xie Xunfeng.
Xiao Wenqin said to Xie Xunfeng, "Xie Jizi, you know everything?"
Xie Xunfeng smiled faintly, and then said, "That's right... Ever since Xiao Wenyan was sentenced to death and the Queen's family was liquidated. It has been more than three months since we left... There must be new people in the court... I still have some friends in Longyang City... It shouldn't be difficult to get this information... But, aren't you in a hurry?"
Xiao Wenqin cupped his hands and said to Xie Xunfeng, "Xie Zhizi, I have learned a lot from you during this time. I think this is much more important than gaining my father's appreciation..."
Xie Xunfeng looked at Xiao Wenqin's expression, laughed, and then said, "You are quite good at talking, kid..."
Xiao Yiran said to Xiao Wenqin, "Fourth brother, are you sincere?"
Xiao Wenqin said to Xiao Yiran, "Third sister, of course I am sincere... Haven't you seen me clearly along the way? I really admire Xie Jizi... from the bottom of my heart..."
Seeing Xiao Wenqin's anxious look, Xie Xunfeng said to Xiao Wenqin, "I believe you... Fourth Prince, as long as you are willing to sit on my boat, I will never let you suffer any loss... However, you should know... whoever laughs last laughs the best... So, I hope you can keep your composure..."
Xiao Wenqin nodded repeatedly to Xie Xunfeng and said, "Xie Proton, I know..."
Xie Xunfeng smiled slightly and didn't continue speaking.
Xiao Wenqin said to Xie Xunfeng, "Xie Jizi, do you know the background of the eleventh prince?"
Xie Xunfeng shook his head at Xiao Wenqin, and then said, "I'm not very clear, but I heard that her mother was from Beiliang. Her mother was also a remarkable person, and she followed the emperor in his conquests. She was also a formidable female general."
After hearing what Xie Xunfeng said, Xiao Wenqin nodded and said, "Xie Jizi, you know a lot. However, there is one thing you must not know yet..."
Xie Xunfeng looked at Xiao Wenqin.
Xiao Wenqin said to Xie Xunfeng, " The marriage between father and Concubine Feng was arranged by the Queen Mother... In fact, few people know that father's favorite concubine is Concubine Feng. And the prince he values the most is also the eleventh prince, Xiao Wenzhan."
"At the beginning, it was because of fear of the power of the Queen's lineage that Father listened to the Queen Mother and did not give Concubine Feng a title. Even Xiao Wenzhan did not have a title. This also made them not give Concubine Feng and Xiao Wenzhan a title at all..."
Xie Xunfeng knew what Xiao Wenqin was going to say.
He said to Xiao Wenqin, "Fourth Prince, just speak frankly. There is no need to beat around the bush..."
Xiao Wenqin glanced at Xie Xunfeng, and then said, "I actually want to tell you that you don't have to trust the Queen Mother too much... All of us are pawns in the Queen Mother's hands... At first, it seemed that the Queen Mother wanted to support me... But, I knew very well at the time that they just wanted to use me and then deal with the Queen's lineage..."
"Enough...Fourth brother!" Xiao Yiran interrupted Xiao Wenqin before he could finish speaking.
"Queen Mother, it's not what you said..."
Xiao Wenqin said to Xiao Yiran, "Third sister, I know you have special feelings for the Queen Mother, but you need to know... the Queen Mother is far from being as simple as you think..."
Xiao Yiran said to Xiao Wenqin, "Enough! If you keep talking, I will really turn against you..."
Xiao Wenqin said to Xiao Yiran, "Third sister, I have to tell you even if you turn hostile... Before, I didn't tell you... Because I didn't consider you as my own people... But now that we are family... I can't pretend I don't know. Listen to what I say first, and then make a decision, okay?"
Xiao Yiran looked at Xiao Wenqin with a frown, and subconsciously glanced at Xie Xunfeng.
Xiao Yiran knew very well that if Xie Xunfeng felt that what Xiao Wenqin said was unreliable, he would have interrupted Xiao Wenqin long ago...
Regarding Xie Xunfeng’s trust... Xiao Yiran did not interrupt, Xiao Wenqin.
"In fact, Third Sister, you have been in the harem for more than a day or two... The Queen Mother has connections in the harem... There is nothing she doesn't know... In other words, she knows everything about what you have experienced while being by the Queen's side..."
"Have you never thought about it? Why didn't she save you before...but came out to save you after Xie Jizi's incident...Have you ever thought about it..."
"It's just a coincidence... The Queen Mother didn't want to get involved..." Xiao Yiran said.
Xiao Wenqin said to Xiao Yiran, "Third sister, the Queen Mother only saw Xie Jizi's ability. She wanted to take advantage of the conflict between you and pull out the Queen's lineage ... You guys should handle this matter. In fact, no matter what, she and my father are in an invincible position..."
"I don't mean to sow discord between you and the Queen Mother. I just hope you'll be careful when you go back... I know you're a smart person, Third Sister..."
"I don't want you to be used by the Queen Mother and destroy the relationship between you and Xie Jizi. I don't want Xie Jizi to be used by you without your knowledge! In fact, I am already disobedient by saying these words... I shouldn't say these words..."
After Xiao Wenqin said this, Xiao Yiran nodded slightly, and then said, "Okay... I understand. But I advise you to put away this idea... The Queen Mother is not as complicated as you think..."
