No script time travel, the general helped me rise to the top

Chapter 229 Hidden in the Boudoir

Jia Kuizhuo took a deep breath and looked at Helan Qin, "It's his man!"

"Who?" Tang Yuwei asked with a frown, holding his sword in hand.

The ghostly black shadow seemed not to be a creature from this world. It floated between heaven and earth with Yangyang. In a short while, it brought Yangyang to a courtyard with a gilded door lintel.

In the corner of the yard, there is a jacaranda tree that blocks out the sun. Under the tree, a stream flows among the sparkling flowers. In the depths, a bamboo pavilion stands gracefully.

"Go in!" the black shadow said stiffly, and disappeared from Yangyang in the blink of an eye.

Yangyang paused for a moment, and walked towards the depths of the flowing water with half a heart, but saw a light on in the bamboo pavilion.

There was a man sitting under the bamboo pavilion, thin but with an upright figure. Next to him stood a swordsman who looked gentle but had sharp eyes, who must be the man's bodyguard.

Hearing Yangyang's approaching footsteps, the man put down the brush in his hand, looked up, waved his hand and said, "Please sit down, Princess!" His voice was steady, vigorous and powerful!

Yangyang looked at the person in front of him. Although his temples were a little gray, his demeanor was still dignified. But since he knew her identity, why did he bring her here?

Looking at the furnishings in the courtyard and the memorials he was reviewing on his desk, there were so many masters willing to work for him!

With many doubts in mind, Yangyang sat down on the stool opposite him, "I guess the elder is Prince Zi'an?"

"Haha!" Prince Zi'an laughed softly and raised his right index finger slightly. The swordsman beside him nodded and left the bamboo pavilion. "Princess, you have good eyesight!"

Yangyang put on a fake smile to please him, not because she was smart, but according to the routine of the TV drama, the only one who had the courage to kidnap the princess could be Prince Zi'an.

Therefore, Yangyang was frank, "Prince Zi'an specially sent people to capture this princess to intimidate the people who brought this princess back to the country. Could it be that he just wanted to praise this princess?"

Prince Zi'an said in a calm tone, "Hahaha! Princess, aren't you afraid?"

"If you wanted to kill me, the black shadow would have already killed me thousands of times! There's no point in being afraid!"

"Princess, you are so wise. If you know this, then just go back to where you came from, okay?"

Yangyang heard that the Prince of Zi'an acted like a powerful official, with a cunning look in his eyes that seemed to be able to see through her thoughts. It was a pity that she had less than three months to live, and it was difficult for her to deal with him. "Princess, what if you say it's not good?"

"Then please let Princess stay in this courtyard. I will do my best to be a good host." After saying this, he said no more to Yangyang and picked up his pen to review the memorials again.

The guard came over upon hearing the sound and gestured for Yangyang to follow him.

The Prince of Zi'an was indeed as the rumors said, living in seclusion and not even willing to speak much. Yangyang had no choice but to follow the guards to his residence.

Let's not talk about why this seems like a hospitality but is actually a confinement. It is really strange that there is not even a trace of other people in this huge house!

Yangyang followed the guards and couldn't help but ask, "May I ask this warrior, is this mansion the only one that lives there, your Prince Zi'an?"

"Our prince likes quietness!" the guard said coldly, and then took Yangyang to a courtyard that was very different from Fangfei Courtyard. Even the position of the tree in the courtyard was exactly the same.

Yangyang entered the yard and asked, "What is this?" She turned around and wanted to ask the guard why he came to the yard, but the guard immediately closed the gate.

Yangyang heard the sound of the courtyard door being locked from the outside, and had no choice but to walk into the room.

Not only the courtyard, but even the furnishings in the room are the same as Fangfei Courtyard. Could it be that this courtyard... "Who?"

Hearing the sound of light footsteps coming from the roof, Yangyang ran out with hope, only to see that it was the guard sitting on the roof, "What does this mean?"

The guard held the knife to his chest, closed his eyes and concentrated, "Protect the princess and don't let anyone take her away!"

"Humph!" Yangyang was so angry that he almost laughed, "If someone really comes, I'm sure you won't be able to protect them!"

"Don't worry, Princess. Besides my subordinates, there is also a shadow watching outside! He will definitely not let anyone disturb you!"

"Bother? Shadow?" This layer of defense must be a reminder from Prince Zi'an! Don't think about escaping. "Then what should I do? Can this princess get out?"

The guard replied again, "Princess, you can go out if you agree to the prince's request."

"What if this princess refuses to agree?"

"Then I will stay here to protect the princess!"

"..." Yangyang was not frightened by the guard, but was amused by his stubbornness. "Warrior, what's your name?"

"install"

"An?" The name is just like the person, quite concise!

Yangyang returned to her room again, but did not find anything related to her mother. She fell into a light sleep that night, but in her dream, it seemed as if someone was calling her name until dawn...

"Yangyang!"

Yangyang opened her eyes and in a trance saw the lush tree and the empty room outside the window. She remembered the calling voice in her dream and it was so real. It must not be the sound of electromagnetic waves in her brain, but a distant female voice!

Just as he was thinking about it, the gate of the courtyard was finally opened from the outside, and An entered the courtyard with two maids.

He stood outside the room and asked two maids to come into the room.

One of them carried a lunch box and placed it on the table, while the other carried toiletries and placed them on the wooden rack, waiting for Yangyang to get up.

"Thank you!" Yangyang murmured as he got up.

In just one night, Yangyang had accumulated too many questions in her mind, so she couldn't help but ask again while they were helping her wash up, "Do you know who lived in this yard before?"

"We don't know, please don't blame us, Princess!" Sure enough, the two maids were just like An, keeping their mouths shut to the point that no information could be obtained!

If this continues, I will be suffocated to death before my death.

After washing up, Yangyang stood up from the dressing table, walked to An, and changed the way of asking, "Is this the courtyard where my mother Jia once lived?"

"I am only here to protect the princess. I don't know anything else!"

"Good, very good!" Yangyang looked around and saw An Yizheng staring at the ground without moving. "Look at me!"

"Since you are here to protect me, then if I get hurt, it will be your responsibility!" Yangyang raised her eyebrows and pulled out a hairpin from her hair bun and put it against her neck, "But can you tell me?"

An then raised his head, his youthful appearance was not childish at all, "Yes! This is the residence of Concubine An. The entire villa was built by King Rong for Concubine An!"

"Concubine An?" Yangyang's breath was choked. No one had ever said that her mother Jia was actually named a noble concubine in Rong State. Even General Jia Kuizhuo kept silent about it. So she confirmed again, "Are you saying that my mother was named Concubine An?"

An's expression was filled with sadness. "Princess! Put down the hairpin. I've said before that I'm here to protect you!"

Yangyang slowly put down the hairpin in her hand, thinking of his age and name, "Your name? Was it also given by my mother?"

"I was saved by the Imperial Concubine on the way to Rong Country, so my name was naturally given by her!"

"No wonder!"
