Chapter 37: Pingnan Palace Secret Guard
"Um…"
Shangguan Xi responded without even raising his head, Nan Jun secretly thought it was bad.
In the past, my father was always overwhelmed with joy when he saw him, how could he be so indifferent today?
"Father, my son has brought Yun'er and his son into the bamboo courtyard."
Nan Jun didn't get up, and still maintained the posture just now.
"Do you still have my father in your eyes?"
From Shangguan Xi's tone, he couldn't tell that he was appeased, but it didn't sound like a good word at all.
"I dare not lie to my father, but the incident happened for a reason, and I had to take them into the mansion in advance."
Nan Jun would never be foolish enough to think that his father didn't know about the assassin last night, and the hidden guard would have reported it long ago.
"That's all! Since you really like it, how can Father hurt your heart?"
Shangguan Xi sighed helplessly, and compromised.
In Nan Jun's whole life, whatever she wanted, her king father would satisfy her, for which Nan Jun was very grateful.
"My son, thank you father for your success."
Nan Jun was about to kneel down as he spoke, but was stopped by Shangguan Xi.
"Father, there is no need for those hypocrisy."
"Yes."
"Since you took Yun'er and his son into the bamboo courtyard, let him stay there and don't come out if there is nothing to do. You don't use it to greet me. If you don't get into the eyes of caring people, it will only increase trouble."
Shangguan Xi felt itchy to see his grandson, but he still had to endure it.
This mansion may not be clean, since Nan Jun took the child back, everything he did before was in vain, so he can only endure it now.
As long as Shangguan Xi doesn't show his great love for Qiao Yun, Qiao Yun will be much safer.
Now it's not just Nanjun who suspects that Qiao Yun's matter has something to do with the Lin family, even Shangguan Xi has begun to suspect.
Shangguan Xi has been investigating the case of Nanjun's poisoning, and Lin Wan has been found out, and the biggest beneficiary from Qiao Yun's dealings with Qiao Yun, at present, is undoubtedly the Lin family.
As soon as Nan Jun told Lin Yan'er to break off the engagement, Qiao Yun was assassinated on the back.
This is too much of a coincidence, right?
At the beginning, Shangguan Xi annoyed Nan Jun for withdrawing Lin Yan'er's marriage privately because he was worried that today would happen, but now that it has happened, it is too late to regret.
Nan Jun had just arrived and didn't know the twists and turns. Shangguan Xi felt sorry for his daughter and couldn't bear her self-blame, and he never explained the reason to her in detail.
What they have to do now is to find evidence, find out the person behind the scenes, and see what the person's purpose is to deal with Qiao Yun's approaching the Nan family.
"Baby will make it clear with Yun'er."
"Don't say anything about Yun'er's return. Tell everyone in your yard to keep their mouths shut. I want to see what good things we have in the Pingnan Palace that are worthy of people's concern?"
What Shangguan Xi hates the most is that other people bully his orphans and widowers. He, Shangguan Xi, is not one of those men raised in boudoirs to be slaughtered.
"Father, those hidden guards last night..."
After all, he was not his own person, Nan Jun decided it was better to ask.
Shangguan Xi looked at Nan Jun and waved to her.
Nan Jun immediately stepped forward and sat down beside Shangguan Xi.
Looking at the face that was exactly the same as in memory, Shangguan Xi's eyes were full of nostalgia.
"That is your mother's confidant, and it is also the amulet she left for you.
There are a total of 280 secret guards in the Pingnan Palace, and they are all good fighters with one enemy against one hundred.
I was afraid that I was doing something wrong outside, so my father kept this matter from you.
Now that you have grown up, the Pingnan Palace left by your queen mother should also be handed over to you.
After all, my son is from the Nan family, Nan Yi's daughter, and he did not disappoint my father..."
"Father..."
Nan Jun covered the cold hand and called softly.
Shangguan Xi took out a jade pendant from the box behind him and stuffed it into Nan Jun's hand, pursed his lips and said, "Father will return the Pingnan Palace to you!"
"The child will definitely not disappoint the father."
Nan Jun clenched the jade pendant in his hand, and leaned his head gently on Shangguan Xi's shoulder, feeling his father's love.
"Father still has some power left by your grandmother when she was alive. In the future, father will hand it over to you one by one. You can just do what you want. As long as you don't grab the power of the official family, no one in this world can touch you. .”
Shangguan Xi gently stroked Nan Jun's back. This was the first time that the father and daughter had an open heart-to-heart chat.
From then on, Nan Jun knew how powerful the Pingnan Palace was, and there was a reason why those imperial daughters fawned on her so much.
Shangguan Xi also analyzed the situation in the court and China for Nan Jun, as well as the abilities of several imperial daughters and the emperor's preferences.
It is precisely because of this that Nan Jun avoided many detours during the seven daughters' fight for the heir.
When Nan Jun returned to the bamboo courtyard, Qiao Yun was talking to a little man dressed as a waiter, and it seemed that the man was Xiao Yu whom he was thinking of.
"I have seen Your Royal Highness."
Seeing Nan Jun come back, Xiao Yu hurriedly stood up and saluted her.
"Get up!"
Nan Jun went straight to Qiao Yun, and helped him up when he was about to bow down.
"Your master and servant haven't seen each other for a long time, do you have a lot to say?"
"Um."
Qiao Yun lowered his eyes slightly and hummed lightly.
"It's still long when we meet in the future! There's no rush at this moment."
Nan Jun dragged Qiao Yun into the inner room, while Xiao Yu withdrew winkingly, not forgetting to close the door for the two of them.
With a chill on his wrist, Qiao Yun looked there in surprise.
I saw Nan Jun wearing a snow-white jade bracelet on his wrist.
"Sister Yu, this... this is..."
"This is just given to me by my father. Only the son-in-law of the Nan family can wear it. Yuner, I have recognized you by handing over the jade bracelet of the lord of the Nan family. Qiao Yun is the only husband of the Nan family. "
Seeing the jade bracelet, Qiao Yun suddenly felt ashamed. He took advantage of Nan Jun's sympathy to enter the Nanfu. He never believed in her feelings. Now she actually gave herself the jade bracelet of the lord of the Nanfu...
"Sister Yun, Yun'er is not worthy..."
Qiao Yun's eyes became hot, and he said in a low voice.
"I said you deserve it and you deserve it."
This jade bracelet was indeed given to Nan Min by Shangguan Xi, but she didn't ask her to put it on Qiao Yun now.
But Nanjun only wanted to marry a husband in her whole life, and sooner or later this jade bracelet would belong to Qiao Yun, so she wanted to give it to him immediately.
"Keep it well, our good days are ahead!"
It was the first time Nan Jun tried to touch Qiao Yun's forehead with her lips, and seeing that he didn't dodge, but his ears were red, she knew that she had already won the heart of the little husband.
"Sister Yun, Yun'er is sorry for you..."
Qiao Yun finally couldn't help crying on Nan Jun's shoulder, he shouldn't let this feeling be stained with dust.
Bringing Qiao Yun back to Nanfu was something Nan Jun wanted to do. Even if Qiao Yun had selfish intentions, Nan Jun didn't take it seriously.
"I like any kind of Yuner."
Nan Ye was worried that Qiao Yun was too naive. As the master of the Pingnan Palace, how could he manage such a huge palace without any means?
Who in this house is vegetarian?
