The Crown Princess is reborn and returns to subvert the world

Chapter 400 Something Happened at Lanjiashan

As soon as Jixiang left the palace, he found that he was being followed.

Banxia had been waiting outside the palace. When she saw Jixiang coming out, she stepped forward and took the medicine box from Jixiang's hand, "Doctor Xue, let me hold it for you."

The housekeeper of the Lan Mansion also hurried forward, "Divine Doctor Xue, please come this way."

The carriage was parked in the parking area outside the palace, and they would have to walk a few steps if they wanted to get through.

Jixiang followed Banxia and the butler towards the carriage nonchalantly, and he felt that there were people on the roofs behind him and on both sides of him.

The new emperor really thinks highly of her.

She couldn't help but laugh in her heart. If you want to watch, go ahead. I don't mean to hide from you anyway.

The carriage arrived at the entrance of Xuanyi Pavilion. The housekeeper of the Lan Mansion very considerately helped Jixiang and Banxia get off the carriage and said, "Doctor Xue, I will send you here. I will go back to get the banknote for you in a while. The twenty thousand taels will definitely not be less than a cent."

Jixiang nodded and said, "Then I'll have to trouble the butler." Then he walked straight into the Xuanyi Pavilion without even turning his head.

Xie Dongnan had been waiting at the door long ago. When he saw Jixiang coming back, he hurried forward with the coquettish manner of a little follower, "Dr. Xue, thank you for your hard work. The kitchen has prepared your favorite meal for you. I'll take you there right away."

The butler kept watching Jixiang and Xie Dongnan disappear from his sight, then signaled the coachman to drive the carriage back.

Those who were responsible for surveillance were already lying in ambush on the roof next to the Xuanyi Pavilion.

In the room on the second floor of Xuanyi Pavilion, Xie Dongnan and Jixiang came in and quickly closed the door. "Xuanyi Pavilion seems to be being watched by someone."

"Has no one been watching us before?" Jixiang asked, taking off his mask.

Xie Dongnan shook his head. "Although the new emperor has been investigating your and the prince's industries for a long time, Xuanyi Pavilion has not made any response. This time, they obviously discovered something."

"Of course they think I am Doctor Xue." Jixiang said calmly, "If they want to watch me, let them watch me. Don't worry about it."

Xie Dongnan was still a little worried. "Although the new emperor looks gentle on the surface, he is quite vicious behind the scenes. A while ago, seven out of ten officials who did not support him had problems. Now the ones left in the court are either his people or the people who like him so much that they dare not touch him for the time being, such as Lord Yan, the Minister of the Dali Temple."

"We have to find a way to get him to start taking action against the officials he dared not take action against."

Xie Dongnan was startled.

"Right now, his eyes are fixed on me and the prince. We must think of a way to create more trouble for him so that he has no time to care about the prince. Otherwise, it will be difficult for the emperor's coffin to enter the city."

Xie Dongnan understood immediately, "We will find a way to deal with this matter."

"Also," Jixiang continued, "have someone post notices in the city tonight, directly stating that the emperor doesn't like women and prefers men."

"And the man he loved was not just one, but seven or eight."

Xie Dongnan opened his mouth wide as if he had heard some shocking secret, and didn't close it for a long time.

"Miss, is this true?"

"What if I was just kidding you?"

Xie Dongnan suddenly laughed, "No wonder there is only the emperor in his harem. I heard that he will choose a concubine in the next few days. I guess those notices at the city gate made him suspicious and he wanted to cover it up."

"When those notices were posted, I thought you and the prince were playing tricks on the new emperor, but I didn't expect it to be true!"

He couldn't help but smile as he spoke, his mouth curled up several times, "We'll post it tonight. The more he wants to maintain his image, the more we'll expose his fake mask."

Jixiang nodded and said, "I will leave the city in a moment, and I will leave the affairs in the city to you."

Xie Dongnan nodded, "I will bring people to lead those people outside away."

After dinner, Jixiang was preparing to leave the city, so Xie Dongnan took Zhao Dong, Zhao Xi and others to set a fire not far away, and took advantage of the chaos to disguise himself as Jixiang and leave Xuanyi Pavilion.

After the men in black on the roof went after the fake Doctor Xue, Jixiang jumped out from the wall of the Xuanyi Pavilion in his night clothes.

She traveled quickly and soon arrived at the south gate of the capital.

However, something seemed to have happened at the South Gate. The number of soldiers guarding it increased more than tenfold. There were rows of soldiers standing inside and outside the gate, and even on the nearby city walls, they were lined up to wait.

Jixiang suddenly felt uneasy. The South Gate was the only way for the emperor's coffin to enter the capital. The new emperor had arranged so many officers and soldiers here, and he was afraid that he would not let Prince Ning and others enter the city.

Now that arrangements have been made here, what about Lanjia Mountain...

A bad thought came to his mind, and Jixiang jumped onto the city wall.

By the time the soldiers on the city wall found her, she had already flown out of the wall.

"Quick, quick, someone has crossed the city wall!"

After a flurry of panic, the heavy city gate was finally opened. But when the soldiers guarding the city came out, there was no sign of Jixiang.

Jixiang flew a few miles and came to the door of a small shop where they kept their spare horses. He took the horse and galloped away.

At this time, on the outskirts of Lanjia Mountain, Tian Muyu, Xiong Er and others were fighting fiercely with others.

Although they had been prepared for this, the sudden appearance of the army still caught them off guard.

"Where did these people come from? Didn't our people set up sentry posts all around?" Tian Muyu stabbed an approaching soldier to death with a sword and asked Xiong Er beside him.

Xiong Er said, "Seeing how calm they are, they don't look like they came here exhausted. Could there be some secret passages around here? After all, the Nether Valley at that time had secret passages throughout several valleys, leading in all directions."

Tian Muyu frowned, "We only prepared for surprise attacks, but never thought that there would be people hiding in the mountains. We underestimated them."

As they spoke, they attacked the soldiers on the opposite side side by side.

Soon they fought their way out.

"Your Highness, please go and see the children. I'll hold them here!" Xiong Er said anxiously.

Tian Muyu didn't say anything more. He jumped up and flew over the heads of the soldiers.

When Jixiang arrived on horseback, he saw a dense group of soldiers besieging the team that was escorting the emperor's coffin to the capital.

Fortunately, the clothes of the people on both sides were of different colors, so they were easy to identify even at night.

Without saying a word, Jixiang rushed towards the people wearing dark military uniforms.

The soft sword in her hand flew, and the soldiers fell one after another.

Some soldiers who knew Jixiang saw Jixiang coming to help them and shouted happily, "The princess is here to help us, the princess is here to help us, everyone, work harder and kill all these bullies!"

"Kill them all!"

"Kill them all!"

There were bursts of roars, swords were swung, and blood splattered everywhere.
