On the night of the broken engagement, the paranoid prince came to me crying and asking for my statu

The air seemed to suddenly freeze.

The two people lying on the ground still maintained the hugging posture.

She looked up and he looked down.

At the moment when their eyes were fixed, Su Sui'an even had the illusion that he was looking at her affectionately.

Last night, she was confused.

It seemed like she kissed him.

What if he wants her to take responsibility?

As soon as the thought came to her mind, she shuddered and quickly stood up, "I'm...I'm sorry."

My heart was beating like a deer.

At this time, Fu Jingrong's numb body had recovered, and after Su Sui'an stood up, he also sat up from the ground.

Seeing that Su Sui'an had once again returned to the attitude of drawing a clear line between himself and him, a sense of loss quickly flashed across his eyes.

"I'll go get you some water."

Su Sui'an had finally calmed down and his heartbeat began to beat uncontrollably again because he spoke.

"it is good."

She casually agreed to Fu Jingrong's words, and her mind quickly searched for a topic that could ease the awkwardness.

Suddenly remembering the trouble she encountered yesterday, she blurted out, "How is the third prince? Did Gu Xiuyan also enter the palace yesterday?"

Fu Jingrong handed her a glass of water and said with a strange look, "The third prince is dead."

"He was assassinated for having an affair with Concubine Xian and died on the spot. The emperor was furious and banished the seriously injured Concubine Xian to the cold palace, leaving her to fend for herself. As for the sixteenth prince..."

Speaking of Murong Min, Fu Jingrong raised a mocking smile, "He was frightened yesterday and has developed a high fever. All the imperial doctors are gathered in Qianyuan Palace to treat the emperor, so we don't know whether he is alive or dead."

Su Sui'an's face was calm, without any expression of sadness or excitement.

She had no concern at all about the fate of the Sixteenth Prince.

In the previous life, Chi Er ended up being mutilated to death because of a word he said.

Now, she was just returning the favor.

She naturally knew that the situation that Concubine Xian and the Third Prince had ended up in was due to a plot.

But after all, Concubine Xian had been in the palace for so many years, and she had Prince Yun as her father. It was still a little unbelievable for her that she was suddenly told that she was being plotted against.

"Are your people involved?"

Prince Yun may seem dissolute, but he is no pushover.

Apart from Fu Jingrong, she couldn't think of anyone else who had this ability.

Fu Jingrong smiled and said, "Gu Xiuyan is not a vegetarian either."

"Gu Xiuyan?"

Su Sui'an was a little strange.

"Isn't he grounded?"

Fu Jingrong looked at Su Sui'an with a strange look in his eyes, "Have you forgotten what happened last night?"

Su Sui'an's ears felt hot and he lowered his head, "I really forgot."

A trace of annoyance flashed in Fu Jingrong's eyes. "In this case, you don't have to be curious. Since he wants to enter the palace, he must have his own intentions."

Even a blind man can see that Gu Xiuyan wants to go back to his ex and snatch that person right under his nose?

Oh, there is no way.

There was silence.

Fu Jingrong turned around and met Su Sui'an's scrutinizing gaze. He quickly coughed twice guiltily.

"How...how are you feeling now? Are you okay?"

Scenes from past and present lives continue to overlap.

A sour feeling spread to the bottom of Su Sui'an's heart, and his throat felt bitter.

He twitched his lips and said, "It's okay."

Both of them tacitly did not mention what happened after she was attacked last night.

The atmosphere suddenly became cold, and Fu Jingrong touched his nose a little awkwardly, "By the way, I recently got a dog that can do backflips. You can come and see it when you are free."

Regardless of whether it is nonsense or not, the key is to keep the beautiful people first.

Su Sui'an smiled and said, "The prince really has a wide range of interests."

Anyone could tell that this was a perfunctory response, but Fu Jingrong responded to her words seriously.

"I have nothing to do, so I can kill some time."

"The prince's voice is a bit nasal, could it be..."

Fu Jingrong cleared his throat and said, "Maybe I drank too much at the palace banquet last night, so my throat is a little sore."

That's a lame excuse...

"Thank you."

Her voice was very soft, but it reached Fu Jingrong's ears without any obstruction.

I have to say that although Fu Jingrong looks young, what he does makes people feel that he is extremely reliable.

She always felt that Fu Jingrong was very special to her...

But...

In my memory of the previous life, this person clearly did not exist.

She must have been confused by the medicine last night, which is why she had such a strange dream.

Fu Jingrong was silent for a moment in response to her thanks.

After a while, he spoke in a low voice, "There's no need to be so polite between you and me."

Perhaps he was in too low a mood, so Su Sui'an didn't hear it clearly.

"what?"

"Prince, the medicine is ready."

A maid's voice came from outside.

Before Su Sui'an could speak, Fu Jingrong started to explain, "You only released part of the medicinal properties last night, and this medicine has a latent effect that lasts for fifteen days. If you don't eliminate the remaining medicinal properties, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles."

A glimmer of understanding flashed across Su Sui'an's eyes.

"I see."

No wonder he was still waiting here after she woke up.

While they were asking and answering, the maid had already brought the medicine bowl to the two of them.

Su Sui'an glanced at Fu Jingrong and drank the medicine without hesitation.

Fu Jingrong chuckled, "You trust me."

The maid respectfully left with the empty bowl in her hand.

Su Sui'an raised his eyebrows, "If you wanted to do something to me, last night was a good opportunity, but the prince didn't do it, which is enough to show that the prince has a noble character. It is an insult to the prince's personality to be on guard against everything when cooperating with someone with a noble character."

A tall hat is put on.

For a moment, Fu Jingrong didn't know whether he was happy or sad.

"I'll have someone give you the prescription later. When you get back, send someone to the clinic near the city gate to get the medicine. Don't worry."

"Okay," Su Sui'an responded fluently, "Thank you, Your Highness."

The topic stopped abruptly.

Su Sui'an glanced at the sky outside and nodded to Fu Jingrong, "If there is nothing else, I will go back."

Suddenly seeing her leaving without any reluctance, Fu Jingrong felt a little reluctant, "Are you...really okay?"

Su Sui'an raised the corner of his mouth slightly, deliberately ignoring his unclear look, "It's okay."

"Then I will take you there. The emperor has already issued an edict granting the marriage yesterday. Now I have a legitimate reason to be alone with you."

When the marriage was arranged, Su Sui'an was not at the banquet.

Naturally, she didn't know that she had been granted the marriage without knowing it.

I don’t even know what happened at the banquet.

But what surprised her was that after knowing that she and Fu Jingrong were arranged to marry, she didn't feel the slightest bit disgusted.

Similarly, there is no sense of anticipation like when the marriage was granted to Gu Xiuyan.

"it is good."

She nodded slightly at Fu Jingrong, her tone and expression as calm.

"Yesterday, after you entered the palace, Su Qishun's other concubine's daughter was sent back to the Marquis of Changping's Mansion. She is now temporarily arranged to live in Cuihe Garden."

"Su Xinlian?"

Hearing what Fu Jingrong said, Su Sui'an's first reaction was that Su Xinlian was implicated by Zhao Qingwan's incident yesterday...

She took back the steps that were about to leave, and very politely "invited" Fu Jingrong to sit down and talk in detail.

The movement of clasping her hands was so natural and smooth that it seemed as if she had done it many times.

Fu Jingrong happily sat down beside her and told her what happened last night without hesitation, "Last night, the emperor intended to 'match' you and Murong Qian, and specially arranged the 'assassination' in order to let the 'assassin' lead most people to Murong Qian's side. Unexpectedly, the remnants of the previous dynasty and Gu Xiuyan's people suddenly appeared to disrupt the situation.

Since the emperor wants Murong Qian to be disgraced at the palace banquet, as a subject, I will naturally fulfill his wish."

Fu Jingrong said this lightly, but Su Sui'an understood that in this kind of situation, if one took a wrong step, there would be no recovery.

Moreover, the assassin at the palace banquet was something she had not expected. Compared to the fate of the "irrelevant personnel", she wanted to know more about whether the relationship between Su Qishun and Prince Yun had been exposed.

As if he had seen through Su Sui'an's thoughts, Fu Jingrong lowered his eyes and said, "Although I didn't have time to expose the relationship between Su Qishun and Prince Yun in public yesterday, because of the remnants, the emperor will definitely investigate the Changping Marquis' Mansion in detail."

Su Sui'an looked up at Fu Jingrong in surprise.

The latter gave her a mischievous smile and said, "My people are mixed in with the remnants. During this assassination, the remnants suffered a lot of damage, and several were seriously injured. I directly asked my people to suggest that those seriously injured people go to find Zhao Qingwan."
