The purpose of Wei Congyun's trip was to meet with Shangguan Nanxiao.

But now that Congyun Villa is in decline, and it is unclear what the relationship between Shangguan Nanxiao and Huan Yu is, it is inconvenient to act without authorization.

As soon as Shangguan Nanxiao returned to the city yesterday, he immediately sent someone to the city lord's palace to deliver a greeting card, and the reply he received was the same as he expected.

Therefore, Wei Congyun was already prepared to be hanged by Shangguan Nanxiao for ten days and a half.

Unexpectedly, after just one day of waiting, things would turn around.

He couldn't care less about being angry with Mr. Li, and said with a smile: "The city lord has just returned home and agreed to meet us. It is really an honor."

Mr. Li said: "The young master of the village just asked about the current situation of Her Highness the Princess. I can tell you a few things."

"Sir, please tell me."

"The young master of the village has been with Her Royal Highness the Princess these years, so he should have a certain understanding of what she does.

As the saying goes, every wrongdoer has his own debtor, and those who have been tricked by her must have their say, right?"

Wei Congyun glanced at Li Fufeng and then said: "Young master, you are referring to the two young masters of the Huan family?"

Mr. Li said: "Exactly."

“But what does this matter have to do with Ruoshui City, especially the Lord of Shangguan City?

The two young masters hate my mother, why don’t they take her to the Tianshui County Duke’s Mansion in Wei State?”

"I can only inform the Young Villa Master that Her Royal Highness the Princess is imprisoned in the dungeon of the City Lord's Mansion together with Prince Yong.

As for the reason for the young master's inquiry, it is better to wait until you meet the city lord and the second young master Huan and ask them to answer your questions."

Hearing that his mother was imprisoned in the dungeon, Wei Congyun was inevitably a little worried and looked at Li Fufeng again.

My mother is the only woman my adoptive father has ever loved in his life. Even though this relationship is no longer what it used to be, there is still affection after all.

If the adoptive father was willing to ask for a favor from Li Lusheng, the mother might be able to suffer less.

Li Fufeng gave a wry smile.

Although the child Congyun is not young anymore, he has never experienced many things, so his ideas are inevitably a bit simple.

The reason why Lu Sheng was dissatisfied with the princess all originated from him.

How could he not have any thoughts when he witnessed his most beloved uncle being let down by Ji Lingyu and even spending his whole life in it?

Under this situation, if he pleads for Ji Lingyu again, it will only make Lu Sheng even more angry and look down on his little uncle even more.

The result is that not only will Ji Lingyu's treatment not improve, she may suffer even more.

Seeing that Li Fufeng did not intercede for Ji Lingyu, Mr. Li's face really looked much better.

"Young Master, if you want Her Highness the Princess to suffer less, or even regain her freedom, there is nothing you can do."

Wei Congyun said happily: "Please, Sir, show me a clear path."

Mr. Li said: "The young master of the village should know very well that all the crux of the problem lies with King Yong.

But he is too cunning and tight-lipped, and it is very difficult to get useful words out of him.

Now you, mother and son, are his only relatives, if you can persuade him, you will definitely make a difference."

Wei Congyun's joy disappeared, and he frowned and said: "Is this Shangguan Nanxiao's intention, or is it Mr. Huan's intention?"

Mr. Li stood up and clasped his fists: "As I was just now, if you have anything you want to ask the young village master, you can ask it when you meet with the city lord tomorrow.

It's getting late, and I have important matters to attend to, so I'll leave now without disturbing you two."

Wei Congyun and Li Fufeng couldn't keep him, so they had no choice but to send him away.

"Father, what exactly do they want to ask from my father?"

"Your father was King Yong of the Wei Dynasty, and Young Master Huan was a noble son of the Wei Dynasty and the brother-in-law of His Majesty the Emperor.

Regardless of his identity, he spent nearly two years arresting your father, which shows that this matter must be serious.

Previously at Congyun Villa, Huan Yu not only asked Zhuge Yue for the antidote for you, but also let you off the hook, which shows that he is a person with clear grudges.

So you must not think about saving your father, it is enough to take your mother safely away from Ruoshui City."

What his adoptive father said coincided with his thoughts. Wei Congyun said: "I'm just worried about my mother...she still has feelings for my father. And you also know that she is no match for my father.

Even if she agrees to cooperate with Shangguan Nanxiao, she may not be able to extract useful information from her father."

Li Fufeng said: "Don't underestimate your mother. In her opinion, no one in the world is more important than you, including herself.

If you were not here, she might still insist on not cooperating with Shangguan Nanxiao and the others.

When you come, she will definitely find a way to ask them everything they want to know."

Wei Congyun felt a little confused, and after talking to Li Fufeng for a while, he took the people into Ruoshui City and moved into the post house.

※※※※

Early the next morning, Wei Congyun arrived at the city lord's mansion.

Mr. Li took him to Jinsong Hall, where they sat down and waited for Xiao Pei and Huan Yu to arrive.

Wei Congyun felt a lot of emotions when he revisited his old place.

Two years ago, he, Zhuge Lin and Ji Yinzhu came to Ruoshui City to propose marriage.

Today, the scenery of the City Lord's Mansion remains the same, but everyone's situation has undergone earth-shaking changes.

"The city lord has arrived—" the guard's voice came from outside.

Wei Congyun retracted his emotion and stood up together with Mr. Li.

Not long after, Xiao Bi and Huan Yu walked in side by side.

Wei Congyun was surprised when he saw the appearance of the two people clearly.

He had just met Huan Yu not long ago, but he didn't find it strange at all.

But this Shangguan Nanxiao...

He is obviously much more mature than two years ago, but overall his appearance has not changed much.

What surprised him was the expressions of the two men.

They are clearly two young men, how come they look so close?

Different from good friends or brothers, they are more like a perfectly matched young couple.

What exactly is going on?

He did not dare to neglect, and quickly bowed and saluted: "Wei, please see the city lord."

Xiao Bi saw all the changes in his expression.

She walked over and said with a smile: "Young master, you don't have to be polite. To put it into perspective, you are my cousin."

Cousin? Wei Congyun is a little confused.

He didn't have many relatives, and there was only one who should call him cousin, and that was Huan Yu.

However, Huan Yu didn't intend to talk about relatives with him today. He simply clasped his fists and said, "Master Wei Shao."

Wei Congyun was secretly surprised.

The two of them were so close, and Shangguan Nanxiao followed Huan Yu in calling him his cousin. There can only be one explanation.

Xiao Bi was not going to beat around the bush with him and said with a smile: "There is no such person as Shangguan Nan Xiao in the world. I am Xiao Bi, Princess Yiyang of the Wei Dynasty."

Wei Congyun was completely stunned and almost forgot the purpose of his trip.

No wonder he always feels that many things cannot be explained clearly.

It turns out that the answer is not complicated. It all happens because Shangguan Nanxiao is Xiao Bi, the princess of Yiyang County.
