Chapter 25: Suspect
Qiao Yun slept very soundly this time, and it was already dark outside when he woke up.
Nan Jun was still reading a book, but it was not the one Qiao Yun read before.
Thinking that she had been by his side after sleeping for too long, Qiao Yun's heart softened a bit.
"Sister Yu..."
The voice of the person who just woke up was still a little hoarse, but to Nan Jun, it was very pleasant.
"woke up?"
Nan Jun put down the book and watched him sit up.
That somewhat confused look took off the coldness of the past, but added a bit of softness and cuteness to Qiao Yun.
"Are you hungry?"
Nan Jun asked with a smile.
She had already ordered the dining room to prepare dinner, and brought it to Qiao Yun when she got up.
Qiao Yun blushed, feeling ashamed that she was waiting for her to eat.
After the meal, Nan Jun ordered his nanny to bring Nan Nianyun who had just woken up, and hugged him in his arms, loving him so much.
Seeing Nan Jun's love for his son, Qiao Yun believed that the love between mother and child whose blood is thicker than water cannot be faked.
Nan Jun was teasing with the child in his hands, but he did not forget to chat with Qiao Yun.
Seeing Qiao Yun always wearing a mop on his forehead, Nan Jun couldn't help frowning.
"Is this cinnabar mole born with it?"
Since he wanted to find out who framed Qiao Yun behind the scenes, Nan Jun couldn't avoid it.
What's more, this cinnabar mole is nothing wrong with Nan Jun, on the contrary, it adds a bit of charm to Qiao Yun's innocent little face.
The smile on Qiao Yun's face froze, and he nodded silently.
"Since I brought it with me when I was young, did anyone see it when Qiao Xiang's mansion held a flower banquet?"
There was no dislike on Nan Jun's face, and Qiao Yun's complexion looked better.
He is not afraid of what other people say, as long as she doesn't dislike her.
I don't know why Nan Jun suddenly asked about this, but Qiao Yun didn't shy away from her.
"I've seen it all. At that time, my mother was quite trusted by... the late emperor. The lord of the capital must come to Qiao's mansion to curry favor."
It's just, thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi.
Today's Qiao Mansion has already changed its appearance, and I don't know whose home it has become.
Qiao Yun said so, and Nan Jun could imagine the scene at that time.
Qiao's status is high and powerful, and Qiao Yun is the only son of the Qiao family. Those husbands and sons may not have time to curry favor, so how dare they talk nonsense?
The people who praised the beauty of this cinnabar mole back then are probably the same as the people who slander it behind their backs now!
"Since then they all know that you have this red cinnabar mole on your forehead, why did you say something ominous after you were old?"
Qiao Yun shook his head.
"I do not know either."
"Yun'er, do you still remember who the word came from?"
Nan Jun is determined to investigate this matter, and will not give up any clues.
Qiao Yun shook his head, all he knew was that his life had undergone earth-shaking changes since that day.
"Father... After Wang Jun took me to meet the masters and sons that day, I sat in the banquet and didn't hear anyone say anything."
When mentioning Emperor Changping, Qiao Yun's eyes darkened.
This man who he regarded as his father since he was a child was the one who drove him away, and Qiao Yun was also grateful to him in his heart.
"only…"
As if thinking of something again, Qiao Yun suddenly looked at Nan Jun.
"It's just that the master of the Lin family once asked me about the cinnabar on my forehead, because he looks too much like Mr. Lin, so I remember it clearly."
Qiao Yun remembered that during the banquet, when Emperor Changping mentioned that he and Nanjun were about to get married, everyone was busy congratulating him, and only Lord Lin asked him about the cinnabar on his forehead.
"Lin?"
It's the Lin family again!
Nan Jun had to wonder whether his own poisoning had something to do with the Lin family.
In order to let their son marry into the Pingnan Palace, they really did everything they could!
"Sister Yu..."
Qiao Yun didn't understand what Nan Min was asking, but she could feel her displeasure at this moment.
"You didn't sleep well yesterday, rest early today, and I'll come see you and Nianyun again tomorrow."
Nan Jun had many questions in his heart, and he didn't want to stay here any longer, so he handed the child to Qiao Yun and left Nanyuan.
Nan Jun ordered Gao Lin to find out who started the rumor that day, and then ordered Gao Lang to find a team of private soldiers from the Pingnan Palace to protect Qiao Yun and his son before entering the study.
"Is the world daughter back?"
Shangguan Xi was sitting in front of the mirror combing his hair, when he saw Xiaohe rushing over, he didn't turn his head back.
"Yes."
Xiaohe replied in a low voice.
"Fortunately, she still has a bit of the blood of her queen mother, otherwise I will be disappointed in her..."
Shangguan Xi put down his comb and stretched out his hand, and Xiao He immediately stepped forward holding the hot cloth towel.
"Your Highness and the princess are both loving and righteous people. How can our little Highness be sent away? I believe that the queen will understand your highness's intentions in the future."
"Oh! That child Yun'er is a poor boy."
Thinking of Qiao Yun, Shangguan Xi couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"It's a blessing to meet a father who values love and righteousness like His Highness, Shi Nujun."
Xiaohe has followed Shangguan Xi since she was a child, and she knows Shangguan Xi best.
Shangguan Xi had been pampered since he was a child, and the current emperor was more than ten years older than Shangguan Xi, so he was afraid of losing this younger brother if he held it in his hands, and he was afraid of melting if he held it in his mouth.
Shangguan Xi was intelligent since he was a child, and the success of the emperor's ascension to the throne could not have been possible without the help of the Emperor of Changping.
Even though Shangguan Xi has tried his best, he is only cruel to his enemies, and he has always treated those around him with affection and righteousness.
"I have been friends with Ah Han since childhood. How can I ignore his son when his family is in trouble?"
Ah Han is Qiao Yun's father's boudoir name.
"His Royal Highness has now brought Shi Nujun and Young Master to Nanyuan, so please rest assured, Your Highness!"
Xiaohe helped Shangguan Xi take off his clothes, and when he saw him go to bed, he lightly cut the candle wicks.
"Yun'er is a good child, if Yun'er can do this, her illness is not in vain."
Shangguan Xi sometimes thinks that the gods have given people some hardships, and I'm afraid it's just for her to grow up!
Since her arrogant daughter woke up, she has become a lot more sensible, and Shangguan Xi is also very pleased.
The ancestors of the Nan family were all first-class heroes for generations, and when they came to their daughter, they would certainly not miss it.
Thinking of this, the corners of Shangguan Xi's eyes also curled up.
"That's right! Your Highness is no different from the princess you were when your Highness married you back then. For a long time, I have regarded your Highness's back as a princess!"
Pingnan Wang Nanyi is a hero of his generation, and also Shangguan Xi's favorite.
It's just that the heroine died young, leaving Shangguan Xi and her young daughter to support the huge family business.
If it wasn't for Shangguan Xi's background in the royal family, he had some tricks, and he was used to intrigue since he was a child.
The father and daughter probably have no bones left long ago, where is the Pingnan Palace now?
Touching the sword on the pillow next to him, Shangguan Xi slowly closed his eyes.
