Chapter 1067 A Different Xiao Shang
Jiang Fenghua knew that Xie Shang had quietly left with the Shenyin Camp, but he hadn't told her what he was going to do.
Jiang Fenghua guessed that Xie Shang had gone to find Yan Dinghai, and she didn't care about how the late emperor got his throne.
She didn't know that these secrets of the royal family were for her best.
Regardless of whether Emperor Jing seizes the throne or not, everything is in the past. Now it is Xie Shang's world, and he should write the history of the Great Zhou.
Jiang Fenghua asked Hongxiu, "Where is Aoxue?"
Hongxiu said, "I went out with Commander Shangguan."
Jiang Fenghua thought that Ao Xue probably didn't know that Ye Ying was still alive.
At this moment, a guard came to report, "Your Majesty, Prince Xiao has committed suicide."
Jiang Fenghua immediately stood up from her seat. "Is he dead?"
The guard was puzzled by the Empress's strong reaction and quickly said, "He is not in any danger, he just keeps asking to see Your Majesty."
Jiang Fenghua said, "Hongxiu, come with me to take a look."
Hongxiu quickly took her hand and followed the guard.
Jiang Fenghua was worried that Xiao Shang still had the idea of being reborn into the future and going back to be the emperor. Although this was a very strange thing, Baili Shang did change the Yinchuan Kingdom after he returned, and the people of Yinchuan Kingdom were scattered all over the world.
Too much time has passed, and probably no one remembers the existence of the Yinchuan Kingdom anymore! Later, Xie Shang erected a monument for the Yinchuan Kingdom in Xichuan, recording the deeds of its ruler, Baili Shang. Of course, that's another story.
When Jiang Fenghua saw Xiao Shang, he stared coldly in her direction and said in a deep voice, "I have finally met Empress Jiang."
"You committed suicide just to see me."
“Otherwise, do you have anyone in charge here? What is your purpose in imprisoning me?” Xiao Shang asked.
Jiang Fenghua remained expressionless. "Prince Xiao committed a crime in Shengjing and became a wanted criminal of the Great Zhou. They probably want to arrest you and bring you back to give an explanation to the dead! You killed someone in Shengjing, and the murderer should pay with his life."
Xiao Shang roared in fury, "Who did I kill? What evidence do you have?"
Jiang Fenghua thought to herself without showing any emotion: Has Xiao Shang really forgotten everything?
She probed, "Have you forgotten how Prince Xiao caused such a mess when he went to the Great Zhou to attend a banquet? You were the one who killed the Fourth Princess Zhang Yurou."
The events related to Danjimai did not happen. The deaths of Zhang Yurou and Shu Xue were both related to Xiao Shang, and their fates remained unchanged. It was impossible for him not to remember.
Xiao Shang said, "A bunch of foolish women. I guess I've done the Empress a favor. The Fourth Princess Consort and the Emperor of Great Zhou have an ambiguous relationship. Does Empress Jiang know about these things?"
Jiang Fenghua said calmly, "Aren't these rumors also fabricated by Prince Xiao to smear the Emperor of Great Zhou?"
Xiao Shang smiled and said, "Whether it's slander or not, the person involved is already dead. Once they're dead, there's no way to verify the facts. But your husband was the person involved, and he should know better than anyone whether he had an affair with his brother's woman."
Jiang Fenghua suddenly grabbed Xiao Shang's jawbone, and his tongue seemed to lose its sensation and immediately spit it out.
Xiao Shang felt as if something had flicked his tongue, and the pain made him unable to utter a single word.
After a moment, he came to his senses and stammered, "What did you do to me?"
Jiang Fenghua said in a deep voice, "If you continue to spout nonsense, I will pull out your tongue."
Xiao Shang hurriedly looked for his tongue and found that it was still there. "Empress Jiang should be grateful to me."
Jiang Fenghua was too lazy to pay attention to him, and didn't want to listen to his nonsense. Xiao Shang had really forgotten everything. She had never seen such a stupid Northern King.
It's good that he knows nothing. Xiao Shang killed so many people in his previous life. It's a blessing from God that he is powerless and has to kill less in this life.
Xiao Shang shouted, "Jiang Fenghua, don't go!"
"What else do you want?"
He added, "I still have some doubts in my mind. I want to say why I always have this feeling that I know you."
Jiang Fenghua said, "Prince Xiao even knows my name, so it can be considered that we are acquainted."
“What I mean is that we are very familiar with each other, as if we have known each other for a long time,” Xiao Shang said.
Jiang Fenghua remained silent. She wasn't sure if Xiao Shang's feelings stemmed from his memories of Yinchuan Kingdom, or if they were all special people.
Without Danji Mai's help, Xiao Shang doesn't seem to be highly valued by King Xiao.
Xiao Shang added, "I am not actually familiar with the people here, but when I see Empress Jiang, I always feel a sense of familiarity. I also have another name, Xiao Shang."
Jiang Fenghua paused, and Xiao Shang continued, "What I mean is that my name in the Northern Xiao Kingdom is Xiao Chuanyun, and I also have another name, Xiao Shang. I have heard some things about you, but I don't know much about you."
Jiang Fenghua guessed that he was going to talk about her past life, but she really wanted to know that Xiao Shang was much older than her. If she lived longer, they would be related as grandfather and grandson in terms of seniority.
Xiao Shang had no achievements and therefore no status in the Northern Xiao Kingdom.
He is currently unaware of the affairs of Yinchuan Kingdom, and therefore does not know about the art of rebirth.
After waiting for a moment, Xiao Shang didn't say anything, and Jiang Fenghua didn't need to mention that they were both reborn people.
"Empress Jiang must be careful of Qin Yunyan," Xiao Shang said.
Jiang Fenghua asked in confusion, "Does Prince Xiao know her? How did they meet?"
Xiao Shang didn't reveal anything about his past life, but said, "In short, you must be careful of her. Your fate could very well change because of her."
"Qin Yunyan is now my maid. How could a mere servant like her change my fate? Prince Xiao overestimates her."
“I used to read your Central Plains novels often. Some pretty maids would eventually murder the mistress and climb up to the master’s position.”
Xiao Shang continued, "She is ambitious and wants to become the Empress Dowager of the Great Zhou. She will succeed. I am kindly reminding you that if Empress Jiang does not eliminate Qin Yunyan and continues to keep her by her side, you will regret it if you do not believe what I am saying."
Jiang Fenghua thought to herself that decades later, someone would write about her in a storybook. How would people talk about her past life? She was the divorced wife of Emperor Xuanzong.
Who is Qin Yunyan? The last empress dowager of the fallen Great Zhou Dynasty?
Jiang Fenghua never expected that Xiao Shang in this life would tell her about Qin Yunyan's ambition.
Jiang Fenghua said, "I believe it, but I believe in myself even more. I believe that my life is always in my own hands. Now that I have executed one Qin Yunyan, will there not be another Qin Yunyan?"
“Instead of worrying about me, Prince Xiao should worry about himself.” She continued, “Prince Xiao’s life is now in the hands of the Great Zhou. The King of the Northern Xiao Kingdom doesn’t seem to care about the prince’s life. They are determined to go to war with the Great Zhou, completely disregarding the safety of the people of both countries, and even less about Prince Xiao.”
A flash of anger crossed Xiao Shang's eyes: "My life is not that important. I do not belong here. If I can return to the future, I will not be controlled by anyone."
Jiang Fenghua felt embarrassed; he wasn't the king of Beixiao Kingdom yet!
He added, “I know Empress Jiang doesn’t understand. It’s no use for you to take me back as a hostage. King Xiao won’t withdraw his troops for my sake. The Great Zhou will definitely lose this battle.”
