Chapter 304: My Lord, Get As Far Away As You Can (28)
A man wearing exactly the same clothes walked in from outside the door, and he said respectfully: "Master, Madam Han wants to see you."
The man narrowed his eagle eyes, stared deeply at the yard, said "Go and get ready", and disappeared.
……
Liu Xiangxiang paced back and forth in the room anxiously, until she saw a figure coming from the door, and then she felt relieved instantly.
After she dismissed the servants, a gentle smile appeared on her face. She stepped forward and shook the visitor's hand, "Huan'er."
Then she stroked his arm again and said with concern, "You've lost weight again."
He is so wronged. He should have been a prince of noble status and the heir to the Prince Xian’s Palace in the future, but now he can only serve as an ordinary guard in the Prime Minister’s Mansion.
It was all because of a fire that year that changed him.
Although Xue'er had reminded the virtuous king to evacuate secretly in advance, he happened to insist on following her and Xue'er to Hanshan Temple that day.
When he returned to the city that night, he learned that an accident had occurred in the palace. When he rushed to the palace, it had already turned into a blazing fire.
While escaping, he happened to be discovered by the assassin from the princess's mansion. In the end, he saved his life, but was also poisoned by the flame poison.
She and her husband wanted to secretly send him back to the virtuous king, but the virtuous king insisted that he stay in the prime minister's residence to train himself, and at the same time not to reveal the truth to him.
They had no choice but to let him stay with Xueer.
Afterwards, Dihuan suddenly grew up.
He will force himself to learn various things and become more calm and reliable in doing things.
In order to avoid the surveillance of the princess's men in the Prime Minister's Mansion, he had to wear a mask and stick the ugly burn scar on the back of the mask.
Di Huan looked into Liu Xiangxiang's eyes, which were full of heartache and reluctance. He could only speak to divert her attention, his voice gentle with a hint of sigh, "Aunt Liu."
Liu Xiangxiang recovered, quickly grabbed his hand, took him aside to sit down, and started talking about business.
"Huan'er, the princess's residence is hosting a banquet tonight, you must follow Xue'er closely. I have a feeling... that General Zhang's attitude towards Xue'er is a little unusual."
She didn't have much contact with General Zhang, so it was difficult to draw a conclusion.
But every year at Xueer’s birthday party, General Zhang would come alone with gifts for the princess.
Whenever possible, General Zhang would deliberately seek opportunities to be alone with Xue'er, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
When he looked at Cher, he looked gentle, kind and full of good intentions.
However, she noticed a hint of scrutiny and some complicated emotions in his eyes.
She had to be careful.
Liu Xiangxiang knew that her daughter was very smart, but she was just a child after all and didn't understand some things very well.
Although she could cooperate with Cher's actions, she still had to put her daughter's safety first.
When mentioning General Zhang, a hint of darkness flashed in Di Huan's eyes. He said gently and calmly: "Aunt Liu, you don't have to worry about Xue'er. I will protect her safety."
He knew exactly what General Zhang thought of Xue'er. According to the information he had learned, there were many things about General Zhang that were unknown to the public.
He will calculate it back patiently, stroke by stroke!
Whether it was the hatred on him or the poison on Xue'er...
After hearing his answer, Liu Xiangxiang felt very relieved, as if she had taken a reassurance pill.
