Chapter 372: Don't Be a Substitute for the Twins 14
After learning that Xiao Keyan asked Lu Changze to come to Wen Kingdom with her on the pretext of pregnancy, Yun Yi guessed that Marquis Yong'an must have thought that he was the one who caused the commotion.
So the method of killing a chicken to scare the monkeys was used to scare him. After letting him see the miserable end of Yun's father and Yun's mother, he would not dare to do anything to disobey him and get him into trouble.
So he asked Wen Chang to send the memorial back to the capital one day later. He rode back as fast as he could and took Yun's father and mother away from the small courtyard.
In another secluded alley in the city, Yun Yi settled his father and mother, and hired people from an escort agency to protect them.
"I know that Mom and Dad don't want to stay in the capital, but if we send you back to the village now, it would be like sending a sheep into a tiger's mouth." Yun Yi looked at his parents and explained, "I promise that you only need to stay here for one year, and we can go home after one year."
Father Yun and Mother Yun looked at each other. They were country people and didn't understand all those twists and turns.
"Yier, that Marquis of Yong'an, is he your biological father?" Father Yun asked a question that he already had the answer to in his mind.
Those people directly captured them from the village and brought them to the yard where they lived before. He didn't know why those people wanted to capture them, but they only said that they were from the Yong'an Marquis Mansion.
"Dad, you are my only father." Yun Yi said firmly, "If you don't acknowledge me, then I will be an orphan without parents."
Yun Yi deliberately spoke in a pitiful manner. Yun's father and mother watched him grow up, and knew that he was pretending to be pitiful on purpose, but they couldn't bear it in their hearts.
"Go ahead and do whatever you want. Don't worry, your mother and I are here. We can take care of ourselves." Father Yun finally sighed and said.
Although he is still confined to the small courtyard and cannot go out, he was previously imprisoned in the Yong'an Marquis Mansion, but now he is imprisoned here in order not to interfere with Yun Yi's living here.
First of all, there is a difference in mentality.
After settling Yun's father and Yun's mother, Yun Yi left.
As long as he shows up, he will definitely be seen by the people in Yong'an Marquis' Mansion, so it is best for him not to meet Yun's father and Yun's mother in the short term.
But the escort company that was protecting them was introduced by Wen Chang, so the people sent to protect them could be trusted and there was no need to worry too much.
The money needed to rent a house and hire a bodyguard was the prize given by Queen Mother Xiao after Yun Yi kicked General Cong.
Queen Mother Xiao rejected the eight cities proposed by Wen Chang, but the reward she gave was still generous.
It is enough for an ordinary family of five to spend their entire lives with some money left over.
While the delegation had not yet returned to the capital, Yun Yi returned to the village where the original owner had lived since childhood, and found the village chief and patriarch to discuss buying the entire mountain behind the village. After agreeing on the price, he went to the government office to sign the documents.
"Yun Yi, have you become rich in the few months you were away? How come you are so rich all of a sudden?" The clan leader looked at Yun Yi, who was completely different from before, and asked in confusion: "And what about your parents? Are they not coming back in the future?"
"I don't know that either."
Yun Yi laughed and changed the subject, "Winter is coming soon. The mountain is bare. I will come back next spring to see what trees to plant."
"I'd like to trouble the tribe leader to help me look after the mountain these days. Don't let anyone set fire to the mountain. The wind is strong in winter. If the dead branches on the mountain catch fire, it will easily affect the village below the mountain."
The chief nodded and said, "Okay, tomorrow I will talk to those people in the village who often go up the mountain to chop wood, and ask them to go and come back quickly when they chop wood, and not to make fires on the mountain."
If there really was a fire on the mountain and a strong wind blew over, the villagers at the foot of the mountain would be the victims.
Yun Yi chatted with the clan leader for a while, then put the documents and transaction receipts in his pocket and left the village for the capital.
-
The delegation returned very quickly. The delegation led by the Fourth Prince not only obtained a large amount of gold and silver tribute from the Xiao Kingdom, but also thousands of miles of land. It can be said that the harvest was quite fruitful.
After returning to the court, the emperor rewarded the entire delegation, including Lu Changze.
But Lu Changze was not happy about the reward at this moment.
After returning to the Yong'an Marquis's mansion, Yong'an Marquis listened to him talk about his experiences in Xiao State. His mind was full of tangled threads and he couldn't sort them out.
"You just lost your previous memory, but you are not stupid. How can you be the concubine of the eldest princess of Xiao country? How can a man give himself to a woman? "
Faced with the questioning of Marquis Yong'an, Lu Changze could only close his eyes and suppress the molten lava that was about to erupt from his eyes.
Was that what he was thinking?
He had lost his memory, and the first person he saw when he woke up was Xiao Keyan.
Xiao Keyan brought him into the Princess's Mansion, a world where Xiao Keyan was the most respected and all men revolved around her. Being in such an environment, he could not find anything unreasonable.
It's like a frog in a well, trapped in its own little world, and knowing nothing about the outside world.
"Also, according to what you said, the Fourth Prince thought that Xiao Keyan forcibly took you away from the restaurant. Did he not know that you had lost your memory? Did he not know that the person who left was not the same person as the one who came back?"
Lu Changze opened his eyes, and this was also what confused him.
The fake suddenly disappeared, and the Fourth Prince went to the Princess's Mansion to ask for him, and somehow he was rescued by accident. Logically, the Fourth Prince should not have known about it.
But does he really not know?
Lu Changze had only met Yun Yi once, at a palace banquet, and didn't know him well, but since they were two different people, they couldn't be exactly the same.
On the way to the Kingdom of Xiao, the Fourth Prince had been with Yun Yi. How could he not have noticed something was going on between the two of them?
Not to mention that Yun Yi kicked General Cong of Xiao State in public in the hall, causing him to vomit blood, and when he was rescued, he was seriously injured and very weak.
But along the way, Wen Chang didn't ask anything.
Why didn't he ask?
"Forget it, let's not think about it. Perhaps the Fourth Prince is just trying to protect himself. After all, the more he knows, the more trouble he will get himself into."
Marquis Yong'an waved his hands irritably, but Lu Changze knew clearly that Wen Changke was not someone who was afraid of causing trouble for himself.
As for Xiao Keyan's pregnancy, the Fourth Prince had already concluded that the baby in her belly was his before he could even react, and he even wrote a memorial requesting for an imperial decree to grant the marriage.
"I have asked a famous doctor to examine your body. The poison in your body must be removed quickly. If it causes a greater impact, it will be bad."
Although Yun Yi learned the martial arts that Lu Changze had been learning since childhood in just one month, Lu Changze had previously performed the heroic feat of killing a tiger to save his emperor, and Marquis Yong'an did not want to give up on his son easily.
He was still waiting for Lu Changze to achieve great things and bring honor to the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion.
So what if Princess Xiao married into the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion?
After the ten months of pregnancy, when both mother and child are killed, their Yong'an Marquisate will no longer have a marriage relationship with the Xiao Kingdom. By then, Lu Changze's body will have recovered and he can still get the important task from His Majesty.
