First Lady of the Crown Prince

 Chapter 932 Confinement (1st update)

Mr. Mingyue frowned, obviously very confused about what he wanted to say next.

“It’s okay if you don’t want to say it, I can’t give you the sword.” Xiao Heng directly stretched out his hand, making a gesture to take the sword back.

Mr. Mingyue quickly hugged the sword in his arms: "I said!"

Gu Jiao said fiercely: "Speak quickly, or I'll beat you!"

Mr. Mingyue suppressed his anger. He was getting weaker and weaker now. He was no match for this girl. He could only bow his head under the eaves.

“Have you heard of Jianlu?” he asked.

 The young couple nodded in unison.

When Gu Jiao went to the eastern border of Yan State to attack Liang State and Jin State, she fought with the people of Jianlu many times. After the subsequent battles were over and Jin surrendered, there was no news about the people of Jianlu.

I don’t know if this Jianlu is the other Jianlu.

Young Master Mingyue said: "My master is the owner of Jianlu, that is, the head of Jianlu. The name of this sword is Xuanyue, and it is the master's token. The reason why I came to Zhao Kingdom is because there was a traitor in Jianlu. I ran away with the sword, and I came here to find its whereabouts. But who would have thought that as soon as I found it, it would be snatched away by that smelly monk."

Gu Jiao said: "Did you say Chen? Luo Chen didn't **** your sword away, he picked it up."

Mr. Mingyue said: "I don't believe it."

Gu Jiao chuckled and said, "Believe it or not."

Mr. Mingyue wanted to speak but stopped.

There is indeed no point in pursuing the monk's behavior. What is important is that Xuan Yue has been found and he can finally return to Jianlu.

Gu Jiao asked again: "How many sword houses are there in the world?"

Master Mingyue said without hesitation: "There is only one." Thinking of something, he added, "But it cannot be ruled out that some small sects are cheating outside under the name of Jianlu."

Gu Jiao touched her delicate chin: "Is it your Jianlu who colluded with the Jin royal family?"

Mr. Mingyue was slightly startled: "The royal family of the Jin Kingdom? Ah, that's what you're talking about. That's right. That's the branch of our Jianlu. There are only two people from the inner sect."

Gu Jiao: "Slaying Heaven and Dark Soul?"

"You still know them?" Mr. Mingyue was surprised.

Gu Jiao thought to herself, I don’t just know it, I’m very familiar with it.

 I have fought against Dark Soul, and I have fought against Killing Heaven!

No wonder Long Yi and Dark Soul are so powerful, but the sword masters at the border gate are so bad. It turns out that they are the only inner disciples.

Master Mingyue hummed: "The world doesn't know that Jianlu has an inner and outer gate. You are just lucky enough to have met me, otherwise you would never know in your life that Jianlu is just a branch of the Jin Dynasty."

Gu Jiao was puzzled: "Why do you want to collude with the Jin royal family?"

Mr. Mingyue's face darkened: "It's about exchanges, what is collusion and not collusion! I don't know the details, and it's not my responsibility. But the two people you just mentioned, based on their seniority... maybe I should call them senior brothers."

“Which one is bigger and which one is smaller?” Gu Jiao asked.

Young Master Mingyue said: "Dark Soul is the eldest brother, Shitian is the youngest...and now I am the youngest. I was still young when they went to share the helm, and I have never met them. I only heard about them from my master. matter."

Gu Jiao nodded: "You continue."

Mr. Mingyue looked at her strangely: "Are you asking about the sword, or are you asking about my senior brother?"

Gu Jiao said: "Everyone asked, why did they go to share the helm?"

Mr. Mingyue thought for a moment: "It seems like he was going to kill someone."

 Kill the second Shadow Lord Xuanyuan Qi.

Long Yi came to Zhao State with such a mission.

However, for some unknown reason, Long Yi gave up on his mission.

So Dark Soul replaced him and stayed at the helm, secretly carrying out the massacre of Xuanyuan Qi and the Shadow Division together with the Jin royal family.

"Long Yi...I miss him a little bit." Gu Jiao said softly.

Xiao Heng held her hand and said nothing.

 He also missed Long Yi.

Want it so so much.

I wonder if he has found the answer he wants now.

 “Now that you’re done asking, can I take the sword away?” Young Master Mingyue said.

“Not yet.” Xiao Heng took the sword over.

He said angrily: "You don't mean what you say!"

Xiao Heng said calmly: "I just want to say that your answer satisfies us, and maybe we can consider it."

He gritted his teeth and said: "Then what are you dissatisfied with? I didn't even hide it at all!"

Xiao Heng said without changing his expression: "We are satisfied, so now we have to consider whether to give you the sword."

Mr. Mingyue asked someone to make a show, and he was very angry.

“Have you seen this?” Xiao Heng showed Gu Jiao’s sketch paper again.

 He turned away: "Huh! Who am I to tell you!"

Xiao Heng said: "It seems that you don't want your master's sword back."

Master Mingyue glared at him coldly, looked at the fang mask on the portrait, and said, "I haven't seen it before."

Xiao Heng looked at him seriously: "Are you sure?"

He sighed: "You are just a mask. If I have seen it, I have seen it. If I have not seen it, I have never seen it. Why are you lying to you!"

Xiao Heng looked into his eyes for a moment: "Last question, where is Jianlu?"

 …

Two quarters of an hour later, the guard in gray found his master in the alley, holding on to the wall and panting.

He strode over, held the other person's arm, and said worriedly: "Sir! Are you okay? Why did you leave me here alone!"

"It's nothing." Mr. Mingyue covered his heart, "I met the young Marquis of Zhaodu and the girl from Bishui Hutong."

The gray-clothed guard said in horror: "Both of them? Did they bully you?"

Master Mingyue shook his head: "No, he just asked me some questions, about the origin of Xuanyue Sword, the two senior brothers, and where the sword house is."

The gray-clothed guard frowned: "Why do they suddenly ask about this? Then, sir, have you told me everything?"

Mr. Mingyue looked at the direction in which the carriage disappeared and said calmly: "I said a few things."

 …

 On the carriage.

Gu Jiao played with the long sword in her hand and asked Xiao Heng: "What do you think? Did Mingyue lie?"

Xiao Heng said: "He didn't lie, but he didn't tell the whole truth either. He concealed something."

 Gu Jiao: "Oh?"

Xiao Heng said: "It's not surprising, every sect has its own secrets."

Gu Jiao pointed to the paper on the table: "Then is the map of Jianlu he drew real or fake?"

Xiao Heng said seriously: "It should be true. Besides, it doesn't seem like he was lying when he said he had never seen the mask."

 They still don’t know who the swordsman who killed Gu Jiao was in her dream.

Xiao Heng stroked her hair on the temples and said softly: "Don't worry, if he is still alive, we will definitely find him."

They are no longer an isolated party. Behind them are the two royal families, the Imperial Palace, the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, and the powerful Black Wind Cavalry and Shadow Division.

Gu Jiao shook her head: "I'm not worried."

Xiao Heng held her hand and smiled: "That's right, we finally got married. Don't worry about anything anymore. Just wait peacefully to be your wife."

Gu Jiao blinked: "Mrs. Shaofu?"

Xiao Heng's lips curled up slightly: "I forgot to tell you. Yuan Shoufu proposed the Young Assistant Examination to the emperor's uncle last year. My uncle agreed. Due to some reasons, the exam was postponed for a year and will be taken next month."

Gu Jiao exclaimed: "Are you not going to be the prince of Yan State?"

Xiao Heng smiled: "The identity of the prince was given by my parents, and the official position of young assistant was obtained by myself."

Gu Jiao raised her eyebrows: "It sounds like you have passed the exam. What if you don't pass the exam?"

Xiao Heng looked at her tenderly: "Let me punish you. But if you pass the exam, you have to reward me."

 At first glance, it’s not a serious reward.

Gu Jiao said seriously: "I haven't settled today's account yet, and I'm starting to think about the future."

Xiao Heng held her soft hand, leaned close to her ear, and said in a low voice with a magnetic voice: "My lady means that we should go back early and settle today's accounts properly."

 Gu Jiao: "I didn't say that."

 Xiao Heng: “You have.”

 Gu Jiao: “…”

 …

The two of them returned to the Princess Mansion. They first went to Princess Xinyang, greeted her and Marquis Xuanping, and played with little Yiyi for a while.

Little Yiyi is getting stronger and stronger, lying in the cradle, kicking her legs and having a great time.

Princess Xinyang asked them how they returned home and whether they went to visit Yao.

 “I’ve been there,” Xiao Heng said.

They went to the Duke's Mansion in the morning, to Bishui Hutong in the afternoon, and at dusk they went to catch Mr. Mingyue.

“Father, I have something to tell you.” Xiao Heng said to Marquis Xuanping, “It’s related to Jianlu.”

During the war at the border, the person who had the most contact with Jianlu was actually Marquis Xuanping, and the last few elders of Jianlu all died at the hands of Marquis Xuanping.

 “Come to the study.” Xuan Pinghou put his hands behind his back and walked out in long strides.

Princess Xinyang glared at him and muttered: "That's my study!"

 The father and son went to the study room next door.

Yu Jin brought a bowl of dark concoction over and gave Gu Jiao a meaningful look.

Gu Jiao was shocked by the sight of her: "What are you doing?"

Princess Xinyang said: "Drink it."

 Gu Jiao smelled it. She was a doctor, so it was not difficult to identify its medicinal ingredients: "This is..."

Princess Xinyang admitted generously: "Drink the medicine while it's hot. The medicine won't be effective when it's cold."

 Gu Jiao: “…”

 Should I tell you that I have used Xiaotaotao?

Princess Xinyang glanced at her and asked, "Why don't you drink? Are you afraid of hardship?"

 Just drink, there is no baby anyway.

Gu Jiao raised her head and drank the pregnancy medicine in one breath.
