After being rejected, he emptied the mansion and went into exile

Shen Jinyao naturally saw Xiang Hongxuan.

She even suspected that what Pan Ye said at the end was deliberately said to Xiang Hongxuan.

reality……

childish.

Xiang Hongxuan glanced at Pan Ye who was lying on the ground.

He walked up to Shen Jinyao.

Neither of them spoke.

Xiang Hongxuan: "Let's go for a walk?"

Shen Jinyao nodded.

She also had a lot of questions in her mind.

But she knew that Pan Ye would not tell it.

Since they set out on the journey, the relationship between Shen Jinyao and Xiang Hongxuan has become much more harmonious.

After all, they had that kind of relationship before.

Xiang Hongxuan's attitude towards Shen Jinyao went through several stages.

At first he only thought that Shen Jinyao was his fiancée.

To be honest, it doesn't matter who his fiancée is.

However, Shen Jinyao has been bedridden, and has become a handle for others to laugh at him.

He didn't care, he said it didn't matter who his fiancée was.

Therefore, he never despised Shen Jinyao for being a patient. At most, he would just marry her and take care of her.

But who could have thought that they would call off the engagement later.

After his investigation, he found out that it was his father and stepmother who planned to cancel the marriage, which only meant that the two of them were not destined to be together.

Who would have thought that Shen Jinyao would transform into someone else later on?

From being bedridden, he became the healthy and capable "Master Jin".

Shen Jinyao, who became Master Jin, became omnipotent.

This made him suspicious.

Could it be someone from the enemy country?

I keep suspecting, but there is no evidence.

So he had no choice but to give up.

It was not until he returned to Shangjing City with Shen Jinyao that he felt that they had met too late.

He often thought that if Shen Jinyao was a man, the two of them would definitely become like-minded brothers.

Therefore, he often felt regretful.

Until Shen Jinyao came to rescue him with food this time, he seemed to treat her differently again.

Who Shen Jinyao was and where she came from was no longer important to him.

If Shen Jinyao were to draw her sword against him in the future, it would be difficult for him to do it.

Xiang Hongxuan slowly figured all these out on his way to the Qiang tribe.

He thought that he must have no close female confidante around him, so he secretly fantasized that Shen Jinyao would be his close female confidante.

At the very least, it is not up to him to decide whether it is yes or no.

No matter what happens, now is not the time to worry about it.

He just saw Shen Jinyao going to find Pan Ye and couldn't help but follow her.

He saw Pan Ye asking Shen Jinyao for wine.

Pan Ye was just like him and didn't ask about the origin of the wine.

He also heard the two people arguing and heard his own name in the middle of their quarrel.

He was not feeling very comfortable.

I feel like I'm not being frank enough, but I can't figure out where this emotion comes from.

Therefore, when he saw Shen Jinyao coming, he went to meet her.

The two walked a little further away, and finally Shen Jinyao stopped.

"We're going to enter the city tomorrow. General, are you... unable to sleep?"

Xiang Hongxuan smiled and changed the subject.

"What Pan Ye said just now..."

Shen Jinyao sneered. A general is a general. He even spoke so openly about eavesdropping.

"General, just say whatever you want to say. We are one."

One...

Xiang Hongxuan was actually a little distracted by these two words.

Xiang Hongxuan: "Pan Ye is indeed very different from before. He used to..."

Xiang Hongxuan thought of Pan Ye when he was young. At that time, Pan Ye was even more pitiful than him, a man without a father or mother to love him.

"He wasn't like this before. I think his behavior must have something to do with the emperor."

Shen Jinyao nodded.

"You also said that Commander Pan has no parents and has been with the emperor since he was a child. So he must have been influenced by the emperor."

"General, what could it be?"

As far as she knew, Xiang Hongxuan, Pan Ye and several other princes had been hanging out together all day when they were young.

I think Xiang Hongxuan still knows something about Pan Ye's affairs.

It's better than her, an 'outsider', knowing more.

Xiang Hongxuan shook his head. He had been thinking about this matter.

"I think Pan Ye must have other oral instructions from the emperor, and those instructions should also be related to this trip to the Qiang tribe."

"Is it related to going to the Qiang tribe?"

that……

Shen Jinyao laughed sarcastically, "Haha, doesn't that mean that you, me, and Murong Wenyi are all pawns of the emperor?"

Although Xiang Hongxuan didn't want to think so, he still added, "The Third Prince probably doesn't know."

"Then should we go ask Pan Ye?"

Xiang Hongxuan: "He won't tell me even if I ask him. Instead of doing that, I'd rather wait for him to tell me himself."

Shen Jinyao nodded, that was indeed the case.

Perhaps for Pan Ye, the emperor is not only his master, but also his faith.

Shen Jinyao thought about it and said, "If that's the case, then the emperor alone can't possibly reach out to the Qiang people."

"Exactly. There must be someone in the Qiang tribe colluding with him."

What else could they do?

It's nothing more than power.

The relationship here is really complicated.

First, the eldest prince of the Qiang tribe colluded with the second prince of Jiuzhou Kingdom, and then the second prince and the youngest prince of the Qiang tribe came to Jiuzhou Kingdom to win over the third prince.

General Xiang and the Shen family were also involved in this process.

At present, it seems that there is still collusion between the emperor and the Qiang people.

……

What Shen Jinyao could think of, Xiang Hongxuan also thought of.

He needs to send a letter to the third prince.

As for what the Qiang people’s road is like, you will only know by going there.

He glanced at Shen Jinyao, who was lost in thought, and said softly, "Now that we're here, make the best of it. Be careful. We'll discuss anything."

Shen Jinyao was a little surprised.

"Will General Xiang discuss this with me?"

Xiang Hongxuan, "Didn't you say that you and I are one?"

I don't know why Xiang Hongxuan said this in such an ambiguous way?

"No matter what, we must return alive and let the Third Prince thank us."

Xiang Hongxuan was surprised, "Do you believe in the Third Prince?"

Do you believe that the third prince will be the final winner?

Shen Jinyao said, "I don't think I have any other choice, why not..."

"Not as good as what?"

"How about I lend a hand, General?"

Xiang Hongxuan didn't react. Why should we lend him a helping hand?

"Of course it's the position that everyone is fighting for!"

Xiang Hongxuan subconsciously grabbed Shen Jinyao's hand.

"Miss Shen, you can't say these things casually."

Shen Jinyao knew that Xiang Hongxuan had no intention of becoming the emperor, which was related to the loyalty and morality he carried.

However, if Xiang Hongxuan wants to fight for it, with her assistance, he should be able to ascend the throne.

That way I guess we can get straight to the finale.

But since Xiang Hongxuan didn't want to, she wouldn't force him.

What's so good about being an emperor?

"I was just joking. General, you should relax a bit. Let's just take it one step at a time."

Shen Jinyao glanced at Xiang Hongxuan's hand, and then Xiang Hongxuan let go.

"Miss Shen, I'm sorry. But please don't say this kind of thing to others in the future."

Shen Jinyao nodded.

Only the three of them knew what happened tonight.

As for what the story of the Qiang people will be like, it all depends on how Shen Jinyao and others respond.
