Xu Qingchen asked thoughtfully: "Is King Nanzhao really confused?"

Princess Anxi was stunned, looked at Xu Qingchen and asked, "What do you mean?"

Xu Qingchen said lightly: "Originally, we all thought that the King of Nanzhao was partial to the person who was favored by Shu Manlin, but this time... I was immediately immersed in medicine after being caught that day. But I remember that the time when I fainted was about Wei Shimo, and the time when I woke up from the stone chamber was about two minutes. You had already sent someone to look at the Saint Palace that day, so they could only go back from the palace. However... during that time, the King of Nanzhao usually rested in the bedroom, and even if he was not in the Nanzhao Palace, there was still a secret passage.

The guards at the mouth are not decorations. Afterwards, Anxi, have you heard this convenient rumor after entering the palace?" Princess Anxi lowered her head and thought for a moment, shook her head and said, "No, when I reported to my father about your disappearance, my father was still very worried, saying that she would send someone to help me find someone. But I refused." Xu Qingchen smiled faintly and said, "Will he not know what happened in his bedroom? Especially when he obviously sent someone to guard that secret passage at any time?"

Princess Anxi was stunned for a long time, raised her head to look at Xu Qingchen's eyes with disbelief and hesitation, "You mean that the father was not blinded by Shu Manlin at all, he was just leaning towards Shu Manlin and helping her? Why... I am the father's biological daughter, the princess of Nanzhao, and I have never done anything to sorry for my identity."

"Maybe, it's because the princess is too worthy of your identity?" Ye Li raised her eyebrows and said softly.

Princess Anxi glanced sharply at her, "What does Miss Chu mean?"

Ye Li blinked and looked at Princess Anxi and said, "There is a saying in the Central Plains. I don't know if the princess has heard it?" Princess Anxi looked at her silently, and Ye Li said in a deep voice: "The master is very good. The princess and the princess are naturally biological fathers and daughters, but... Although the princess calls him the father and the princess, in my opinion, it should be the prince's father. In the royal family, he is the king first and then the father. The princess is the same, first a minister and then a daughter. These days in the capital of Nanzhao, I have heard a lot of princess' reputation. The people of Nanzhao praised the princess as a wise and wise princess. Even people like me who have just arrived in Nanzhao have this impression, let alone the people in the southern border who have been favored by the princess."

Princess Anxi's face turned pale and she said tremblingly: "Do you say your father is afraid of me? That's why she supports Shu Manlin and I to fight against me to suppress me?"

Ye Li sighed softly, looking at Princess Anxi with some pity and said, "The princess should have read some historical books of the Central Plains. If you don't say it, just say it's close. Although the princess is in southern Xinjiang, she must have some understanding of the situation of the Dingwang Mansion?" Princess Anxi's lips, which bit white, trembled slightly, and looked at Xu Qingchen for help. Xu Qingchen sighed softly, "Anxi... I have reminded you that too much is not enough." Princess Anxi bit the corner of her lips and lowered her head without saying anything, too much is not enough... He said this to himself four years ago when they first met.

But she didn't really take it seriously. Because she was sincere for the sake of Nanzhao's good, she could tell anyone with a clear conscience that she had never had her own selfishness. She thought that as long as she tried to share her worries with her father, she would be happy. She thought that as long as Nanzhao became powerful and prosperous, the people would live in peace, the sister Qixia would not have to marry her. But the result was that Qixia ran to Dachu herself to marry a man as a concubine in anonymous manner. The father had long been planning to check and balance herself. Then what did she do over the years... what did these things she did?

Looking at Princess Anxi's deep-strike, Ye Li and Xu Qingchen could only look at her silently. Such a blow could not be solved by a few understatement of comfort. It would be enough for Princess Anxi to figure it out by herself.

The study was solemn. Princess Anxi sat in a chair and lowered her head. Although she couldn't see anything on the outside, she could tell how uneasy she felt just by looking at the tight white fingers holding the armrest. Ye Li praised in her heart. At least Princess Anxi is definitely a person who knows how to control herself. This is rare, especially among women. After a while, Princess Anxi raised her head to break the tranquility of the study, "If I give up everything now, will my father be..."

"Anxi..." Xu Qingchen frowned and looked at her and shook his head, "I don't know what the King of Nanzhao will do, but Shumanlin... Anxi, Shumanlin hates you, do you understand? She will not let you go at all, and... she will definitely drag Nanzhao into hell. Is this what you want to see?" Anxi looked at him in confusion, "She hates me, I know that at most I can go to the Central Plains, Xiling and Beirong. But you say..."

"What do you think she is doing with military talismans? Mobilize the guards of the capital to besiege your princess mansion? I have talked to her several times. Her ambition is indeed very great, but... she does not have the strength to match her ambition." Xu Qingchen said.

Princess Anxi looked solemn and looked at Xu Qingchen hesitantly, "You mean...she wants..."

Xu Qingchen said: "Ask Liuyun what she did on the border between Nanzhao and Dachu."

Princess Anxi turned to Ye Li, and Ye Li said in a deep voice: "On the way to southern Xinjiang, we accidentally found that there was an artificial snake valley not far from Ruixue Pass. Hidden behind the snake valley is a very large weapon refining field. All the weapons created inside are commonly used by the soldiers of the Great Chu. However, I also found some other things from it. In addition, the person who controls this weapon field is Le Jiang, the leader of the Luoyi tribe."

"Man-made Snake Valley? Looking at the weapons of Da Chu? What exactly did she want to do?" Princess Anxi said furiously. People in southern Xinjiang generally like snakes, but they do not mean that they like the place where the southern Xinjiang has become a place full of poisonous snakes. So Mo Xiuyao's fire was less than the Snake Valley, but it did not arouse too much hatred among the people in southern Xinjiang. Unexpectedly, in just ten years, another Snake Valley appeared in southern Xinjiang. As for building weapons from other countries in southern Xinjiang, it violated Princess Anxi's bottom line. Who knows whether these weapons will be used to deal with the people in southern Xinjiang one day? In the eyes of Princess Anxi, this is like a treason and collusion with the enemy.

Does the father know all this? Was it because Shu Manlin was hiding it in the dark or pretending to be ignorant, or was it because the father agreed to Shu Manlin's plan?

Xu Qingchen said: "It's obvious that isn't it? King Li assisted the saints of southern Xinjiang to obtain the Nanzhao Kingdom. In turn, Shu Manlin of course also needs to assist King Li to obtain the Great Chu."
