Wen Wan was taken by Xia Ying and finally brought to a courtyard. Wen Wan looked at Xia Ying in surprise, why didn't she just go back to Zhuangzi? I'm going to hide in this courtyard.
"Princess, there are spies inside and outside the hot spring village. If the leader of the guards guarding the place hadn't gotten the emperor's secret order and secretly released the water, I wouldn't have been able to bring you in so easily." Xia Ying explained softly.
Wen Wan fell silent after hearing Xia Ying's words. The battle between the two factions was far more cruel than she imagined. After running away for a year, I finally had to face it head-on.
Wenwan asked Xia Ying how his uncle was doing recently. Now in the court situation, because of what happened to King Zhou before, King Zhao and King Zhou have torn away the last fig leaf. The positions of both factions are very clear, either you die or I die.
Xia Ying said sadly, "Because King Zhao and King Zhou joined forces before, stumbling upon the prince inside and out, causing him to suffer several losses. Although King Zhou has been imprisoned now, his power still supports King Zhao. , The people below are also causing a lot of trouble for the prince. The emperor doesn't know why. He never asks the reason. No matter what the reason is, he will reprimand the prince if he doesn't do a good job. The situation in the capital is already ruined. Xiang Zhao Wang. Your current situation is very bad. "
Wen Wan nodded and said no more. She closed her eyes and rested her mind. She never knew why the emperor's grandfather did this. She didn't know before, and she doesn't know now. But one thing she knew was that the emperor's grandfather gave the same opportunity to King Zhao and his uncle. Although the situation that my uncle is facing now is not good, as long as there is no final outcome, it proves that they still have a chance. Just don't know. What kind of chess is the emperor's grandfather playing? The situation is so chaotic, isn't he afraid that he won't be able to control it and cause chaos? Perhaps, the emperor's grandfather, who has experienced hundreds of battles, has enough confidence to be able to control it!
At nightfall, I followed Xia Ying and turned left and right before returning to the courtyard where she lived. Wen Wan looked at herself like this, as if she was a thief. Wen Wan smiled bitterly when she thought of Luo Shouxun's words. It turned out that he actually occupied such an important position in the competition for reserves. It really is. If she hadn't gone out and walked around, she really wouldn't have known. I always thought it was just a matter of looks. It turns out that in the eyes of outsiders, I am so scheming. No wonder Concubine Xian wants to kill herself.
Returned to the main house and chased away everyone. Wenwan looked at the familiar environment. One year feels like it flies by in the blink of an eye. Wenwan faced Xia Ying. Let her find the substitute and show it to her.
After a while, a woman walked in from outside and saw Wen Wan kneeling on the ground, "Greetings to the princess. Good luck to the princess."
"Raise your head." Wen Wan looked at her substitute carefully. He was almost the same height and appearance as himself. Maybe because of malingering. A little thinner than he looks. However, the appearance is really very similar. In terms of looks alone, they are nearly 90% similar. The other thing is that the charm is not the same. Of course, only someone very close to you can notice this. This is why she moved her to Zhuangzi and refused to allow people who were close to her to visit her, just to prevent others from seeing the clues. But in order to prevent others from being distracted, this substitute will occasionally go out for a walk. But they are all far away, for people to watch.
Waved gently. Let her go down. Xia Ying brought a mirror, Wen Wan looked at the face in the mirror, and was stunned for a while.
Return to the hot spring village. The first thing to do is, of course, to get rid of that black face. Xia Ying went out quickly. I took a bunch of things when I came in. Behind her was the woman who applied makeup to her last time.
The woman first applied a thick layer of medicine on Wen Wan's face. The smell was extremely unpleasant. Wen Wan's face was itching badly. Xia Ying looked at her from the side. Seeing that Wen Wan couldn't bear it, he tied her up with a rope so that Wen Wan could not catch her, otherwise she would have to break up.
Unexpectedly, I was not punished at first, but now I will be severely punished. It took a day to scrape off the ointment. I did it over and over again for three days. Fortunately, it was only very uncomfortable the first time, and then it was just a little itchy, not too uncomfortable. Otherwise, Wen Wan really doesn't know if she can get through it. This is really painful.
Wen Wan has been unhappy since she returned to Zhuangzi. Either painting, playing chess, or just sitting there quietly. Or, she took the book and asked Xia Ying to read it to her. As I listened, I didn¡¯t know where my mind was wandering.
Three days later, Xia Ying brought a mirror.
Wen Wan looked in the mirror, looking at the person in the mirror with willow eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, fair skin, and blinking eyes. Wen Wan knew that she had really returned.
She has regained her gentle and gentle identity. Wen Wan looked at the person in the mirror, looking at herself like Mao, and she felt sad. If possible, she would rather be Jiang Shouwang for the rest of her life. Being Jiang Shouwang, what?No need to think, no need to worry about anything. Just live happily every day. Unfortunately, fate has destined me to be mediocre and gentle, so I can only act as mediocre and gentle. After being depressed for a while, Wen Wan adjusted her mentality.
There are no ifs in this world. If you always want to do things that don't exist, you will eventually collapse. It's better to think realistically and do what needs to be done.
"Princess, your skin is fairer than before. It's also more beautiful." Xia Ying deliberately complimented Wen Wan. Naturally, she could see that Wen Wan was not in a high mood since she came back. She also knew something about what happened to Wen Wan during her year in the palace. It's so exciting outside, so naturally you won't get used to being locked in a cage.
In order to relieve Wen Wan's boredom, Xia Ying used various methods to make Wen Wan happy. It's a pity that Wenwan doesn't appreciate it very much. Always sitting there quietly alone. Same as always.
But it¡¯s a little different from before. Even Wen Wan knows that her state of mind now is incomparable to that of a year ago. She always couldn't help but wonder what that guy Yan Qixuan was doing now and whether he was thinking about her. I was thinking too much and didn't want to think about it, so I brought something over to adjust the paint. I painted slowly and very carefully, making sure to paint the beautiful scenery of that day.
Qi Xuan stayed alone in the White Jade Garden, looking at the familiar environment. The only thing missing was the familiar person: "Fu Xi, why have you only been away for a few days, but I feel it is longer than decades. Just wait, I¡¯ll pick you up after the New Year. Just wait for me.¡±
At the same time, the news that Wen Wan's condition had almost recovered also spread. Moreover, the news that was sent back to the capital was that he would be able to return to the capital in a few days. Although it was said that it was getting better gradually, it was only gradually. No one knew how it was. But now it¡¯s a real deal, it¡¯s great.
"What, you're healed? Didn't you say you were about to die? Why did you suddenly say you were okay this time?" King Zhao was so angry that he smashed a jade sculpture.
He was not afraid to deal with Prince Zheng, but he was always a little weak when dealing with Wen Wan. He always felt that that girl was his nemesis. When he meets that girl, nothing goes right for him no matter what he does. No one wants to meet someone who is unlucky when they meet her. King Zhao is no exception. As soon as he heard that the girl was cured and would be back soon. I feel weak in my heart. He found it unbelievable to say it, but it was the truth. He is not afraid of King Zheng, but he is extremely taboo about gentleness. Because gentleness is the enemy.
"Actually, the imperial doctor concealed the report. The princess's illness has actually begun to improve slowly since July. But those people are particularly cunning, and there are no people from us around the princess." Wen Wan went to Zhuangzi with only He took Xia Ying and several other confidants. Those who came from the palace were not at ease, and they didn't bring any of them, let alone the other maids and women. The guards outside were all people sent by the emperor. Therefore, the news did not leak out.
"Trash, they are all trash." King Zhao was furious, and the panic in his heart came up again. When asked to deal with Wen Wan, he really felt helpless in an indescribable way.
Su Xian smiled and said, "Dad, I got the news that Wen Wan will be back in a while. Dad, it seems that all the illnesses of this child are really cured."
"I understand." Su Hu said calmly.
"This year, His Royal Highness King Zheng was so suppressed by King Zhao that he could hardly breathe. Now that the princess is back, I hope things will get better." Su Xian said in a low voice.
"The emperor's heart is unpredictable. I have served the emperor for forty years, but I still can't guess what he is thinking. The emperor still has a few years at most, and the most optimistic is five or six years. But until now, two people still have no idea. The princes are fighting to the death, but he is not afraid" The Prime Minister did not say the rest. The emperor was not afraid that if the two of them developed evenly matched powers, or suddenly fell ill and passed away. At that time, there will be Japanese pirates in the south, and the Manchus in the north will be watching. If civil strife breaks out again, the country of Daqi will be in danger.
Gentleness is in Quanzhuangzi. I tried hard to eat the supplements made by Xia Qiu, stayed in Zhuangzi for half a month, and gained several pounds. Wen Wan looked in the mirror and touched her fairer skin. In the palace, she looked a lot thinner because she exercised a lot and had to draw strips all the time. This will make them fatter, and it makes people wonder what the two of them have in common.
Wenwan got used to it after staying in Zhuangzi for a few days. Wen Wan really feels that his ability to adapt is really amazing. Looking in the mirror again, I feel completely different from the black boy before. If she were to tell anyone now that she was Mr. Fuxi, everyone would probably think she was crazy!
So now when she goes out, no one will say that he is Jiang Shouwang, the famous and sensational Mr. Fuxi in the capital. (To be continued)
