Chapter 2758 2760【Death sentence】
Xiang Nan then took Pei Zhao to Yanzhi City, Xizhou.
He wanted to make sure that Gu Jian had brought Qu Xiaofeng back to Xizhou, and he also wanted to prevent the tragedy of Gao Xian forcing the princess of Xizhou to death and driving the king of Xizhou crazy from happening again.
The two of them traveled day and night, and after five days, they arrived at Yanzhi City from Casaborg.
After entering the city, Xiang Nan found Chai Mu and learned from him that the concubine of Xizhou had been demoted to a commoner by the king of Xizhou because she sent people to assassinate Princess Mingyuan, while the original side concubine Princess Mingyuan had been helped .
Xiang Nan was not surprised when he received the news.
Danchi was destroyed by the army of Feng Dynasty, and King Tiedar was captured alive. As his daughter, the Concubine Xizhou could not remain indifferent, she would definitely anger Princess Mingyuan and send someone to assassinate her.
After all, before this, she had been favored by Ming Yuan, and she had been blackmailed on her many times. Now that there is a new hatred and an old hatred, naturally they will not be soft.
But when Dan Chi was destroyed, not only the empress of Xizhou lost her greatest support, but also the king of Xizhou lost her ally Dan Chi. If he still wants to rule Xizhou, he has to rely on the support of the rich dynasty.
Therefore, the importance of Princess Mingyuan has greatly increased.
So, even if the King of Xizhou has been in love with the Concubine Xizhou for more than ten years, he has to make a decision at this time. The concubine was demoted to a commoner and imprisoned, and Princess Mingyuan was brought upright.
It can be seen from this that the Concubine Xizhou is also an unclear person.
Since marrying into Xizhou, the interests of Xizhou should be the first consideration. Now that Dan Chi has been destroyed, Feng Chao's prestige has deterred the western border.
At this moment, she is angry with Princess Mingyuan, which will not help the matter, and will also cause trouble for Xizhou. It is purely emotional and has no brains. It is already cheap to end up in confinement.
Not being ordered to be executed is the result of Xizhou Wang Gu Nian's relationship between husband and wife for more than ten years.
…
"Cousin, the ninth princess?" Xiang Nan asked again with concern.
"Not yet. I have sent people to investigate everywhere. Even if Qiongbi falls into the underworld, I will definitely find him." Chai Mu promised.
Xiang Nan nodded, "Send someone to disperse the confinement of Concubine Xizhou. I think Princess Jiu will try her best to rush back to Xizhou after receiving the news."
When Chai Mu heard this, he agreed.
Although he didn't have much contact with Princess Nine, he also knew that she was kind-hearted. Knowing that something happened to the mother and concubine, she will definitely rush back to Xizhou City.
Later, Xiang Nan told Chai Mu about Shuo Bo.
"I didn't expect King Lidun to act so fast, and I didn't expect the old King Shobo to be so incompetent." Chai Mu frowned when he heard this, "King Lidun is cruel and ambitious, and he is King Shobo. The Western Territory is not peaceful again."
Xiang Nan also sighed, but did not tell the story of himself poisoning King Lidun.
Chai Mu and him are just using each other. Chai Mu helped him ascend to the crown prince, and he helped the Gu and Chen families rehabilitate Zhaoxue. Both sides have their own calculations and uses.
So Xiang Nan will not tell Chai Mu all of his hole cards.
…
After meeting Chai Mu, Xiang Nan was relieved to know that Gao Xian had not driven the empress of Xizhou to death, nor had he driven the king of Xizhou mad.
After a short rest in Yanzhi City, he and Pei Zhao returned to Anhu Mansion in the Western Territory.
"Congratulations to the fifth prince for making a remarkable achievement. I have already written a letter to ask for the credit for you." After seeing Xiang Nan, Gao Xian cupped his hands and smiled.
As the protector of the Anhu Mansion in the Western Territory, he naturally has the power to submit a letter to the imperial court. He was worried that after Li Chengye returned to Beijing, he would not be able to count Xiang Nan's achievements, so he also wrote a letter to list the achievements of himself and Xiang Nan.
"Thank you, uncle." Xiang Nan laughed.
"I was still in King Danchi's tent, and I captured a large number of rare and rare treasures." Gao Xian laughed again, "I picked a batch of the best ones for you."
"My uncle is so kind to me." Xiang Nan laughed when he heard that.
The so-called big husband should not be without power for a day, and the young husband should not be without money for a day.
After he returns to Beijing, he will soon become a king, open a government office, and build a mansion. At that time, money will be needed everywhere. Having a batch of rare treasures in hand will undoubtedly greatly alleviate the financial crisis.
In fact, Xiang Nan was the first to break into King Danchi's tent. If he wanted to be greedy, the entire treasure of King Danchi's tent would belong to him. But he didn't move a penny, but sealed it up and registered it as a spoil of war captured by the enemy, and planned to dedicate it all to the country in the future.
Unexpectedly, Gao Xian dared to touch the tribute, and he said it to himself without hesitation. It seems that he is not only greedy, but also considers him as his own in his heart.
…
Xiang Nan stayed in Anhu Mansion in the Western Territory for a few days, and finally received the news from Chai Mu.
The nine princesses of Xizhou have returned to Yanzhi City.
After Xiang Nan received the news, he immediately rushed over with Pei Zhao.
After arriving in Yanzhi City, Xiang Nan first went to see Chai Mu.
I saw him making Gu Jianfei kneel, and at the same time whipping his back with thorns.
"Jian'er, do you still remember what your mission is?" Chai Mu asked.
"Gu Jian dare not forget." Gu Jian looked at the spiritual tablet of the Gu family on the shelf, and said sadly.
"Then tell me again." Chai Mu asked.
"I want the memorial tablet of the Gu family to be enshrined in the Martyrs' Shrine in an upright manner." Gu Jian gritted his teeth and said.
"More!" Chai Mu shouted.
"..." Gu Jian kept his mouth shut.
"There is more!" Chai Mu whipped him hard.
"..." Gu Jian still did not speak.
"There is more!" Seeing this, Chai Mu smoked more and more fiercely.
"Don't get too close to the Ninth Princess. You are definitely not the same person as the Ninth Princess. Don't wishful thinking." Gu Jian could only answer loudly.
"Since I remember it so clearly, why do I still need to know my mistakes and make mistakes again and again?" Chai Mu continued to whip.
Gu Jian was speechless.
Seeing this, Chai Mu almost died of anger.
They hibernated in the Western Territory for twenty years, just to one day be able to rehabilitate the Gu and Chen families.
However, Gu Jian spoiled his good deeds first because of his children's personal affair, so how could he not be angry. What makes him even more sad is that Gu Jian still doesn't know his mistakes and is still unwilling to repent.
…
At this moment, Xiang Nan rushed forward and protected Gu Jian under his body, "Mr. Chai, for my sake, please let my cousin go. He took away Princess Nine because of his love." righteous."
Seeing Xiang Nan's appearance, Chai Mu finally calmed down and dropped the cane in his hand.
Gu Jian glanced at Xiang Nan, but did not express his thanks.
"Jian'er, you are not allowed to see Princess Nine again." Chai Mu instructed again, "She will be the Crown Princess Fengchao in the future. If you keep in touch with her, it will be of no benefit to her or you."
Gu Jian did not respond, and remained silent.
Seeing this, Xiang Nan already sentenced him to death.
Any superior will not allow his subordinates to disobey orders.
Suppress at the slightest, eradicate at the most serious.
Especially the king, when he treats his disobedient subjects, he will send down the wrath of thunder.
Although Gu Jian is Li Chengyin's cousin, he likes to act impulsively and make his own decisions, and he also has unreasonable thoughts about Qu Xiaofeng.
A person like this is truly immortal.
