C86 Fox loves you (1/2)

When the phoenix returned to the palace, Shangguan Wan was waiting silently for news to arrive.

Sure enough, she did not disappoint him. She led a person dressed in the attire of a spy into the hall, then cautiously left, closing the door behind her.

”Long story short.”

That person knelt down and cupped his hands. ”Empress, the Great General has already become the young master of the Zhao Family. Even with the Azure Sword, there is still no trace.”

”What?” Young Master Zhao? ” Shangguan Wan was astonished. Wasn't Chu Jingli asking the Zhao Family for a sword? Was there a need to 'sell himself'? This sacrifice was simply too great.

”Exactly.” The man swallowed his saliva. ”The General was unlucky. On the day he arrived at Song Mian, Miss Zhao was fighting over the marriage. Seeing the General's awe-inspiring appearance and extraordinary appearance, she fell in love with him at first sight and took him away.”

Shangguan Wan who was preparing to drink her tea stopped in her tracks, staring at the kneeling man, ”Are you telling the truth? Great General … Was it stolen? ”

How was this possible? Chu Jingli was a person who could do nothing else, but there was no need to talk about martial arts. How could an ordinary person possibly be a match for him?

”Indeed.”

Shangguan Wan began to plan in her heart. Someone who could easily make Chu Jingli compromise was either better in martial arts than him, or had shamelessly reached the pinnacle of martial arts.

According to what had been said before, there were only a few people in the world who could be Chu Jingli's match. With such a reasonable explanation, the young miss of the Zhao family was not an ”ordinary” young lady.

”Then, do they still love each other?” A woman's favorite question was indeed something that could not be separated from emotions.

That person paused, only after a moment of hesitation did he muster up the courage to speak up, ”Empress, Miss Zhao died on the day of the wedding. The Great General is being watched. He cannot leave Song Mian.”

”What!” Shangguan Wan became even more excited.

From what she could imagine, since Chu Jingli was being watched, there must be someone who suspected that Zhao Rujun's death was related to him.

Would it not be weirder to die on a day like this?

It was just a few short sentences, but there was a lot of information.

”Then, Empress, should we send troops to rescue the Great General?”

Shangguan Wan sat back down again, after calming herself down for a while, she slowly said: ”No need, it's not time yet.”

He believed that him marrying Zhao Rujun was not his wish. The key point was that the Azure Light Sword had not appeared yet, so it was up to him whether he should continue searching for the Azure Sword or not. He had to give Zhao Rujun more time to think about it carefully.

”You can leave now, and continue to watch over Song Mian. If there's a message, send it to me, and you don't have to come back in person.” It was better to waste time and use the fastest speed possible.

”Yes, Empress.”

After that person left, Shangguan Wan reached out a hand to stroke her forehead. Ah, how to live in this world, no matter what you do it will be difficult, nothing will be pleasant to you.

A few days ago, Rong Xiu had come to urge his again. If she didn't make any more moves, it would be just as he had said. When the time came, he would most likely be unable to escape this calamity.

She wasn't afraid of the pain of the inferno, but she couldn't bear to think about it.

If he couldn't emerge from the Inferno Inferno Territory, then he would be turned into ashes. But once he came out, he would completely sever all ties. To Nangong Yu, both of these were great injuries.

She didn't know how long she thought about it, but the more she thought about it, the more she missed Nangong Yu. Right now, he should be in the royal study, reviewing reports.

With that said and done, she changed a set of clothes under Jun Yao's care and headed for the royal study.

Qi He was still in seclusion, and Luo Chen had left as well. Qin Fei had used the name of recuperating from his injuries to stay out of the palace, but it seemed very peaceful inside and outside the palace.

Only Chu Jingli had no idea what had happened, but for some reason, he had become a widower.
