Regent, your poisonous concubine is going to defy the heavens

Su Shengsheng asked why she didn't see Mo Jingheng in the capital those days, and it turned out that he was sent by Mo Chenyuan to suppress bandits.

"Princess?" Gu Zhixiao called in a low voice.

Su Shengsheng came back to her senses and looked at Gu Zhixiao, "Are you sure he's injured?"

"Yes." Gu Zhixiao nodded. "The Third Prince would send a letter to the mansion every three days. However, the letter sent back two days ago had blood stains on it. Yesterday was the time for the Third Prince to send a letter, but Zhixiao waited for a whole day and didn't see any."

"So you concluded that he was injured?"

"Yes, Zhixiao knows that I am just guessing, but I am really panicking in my heart. Princess, Zhixiao begs you to let the Third Prince come back."

Su Shengsheng looked at Gu Zhixiao seriously, "Are you really in love with him?"

Gu Zhixiao nodded, "Princess, I have liked him since the palace banquet that day, but at that time he was devoted to Su Qingqing, and now Su Qingqing has..."

Gu Zhixiao said as he glanced at Su Shengsheng cautiously, showing no expression when they met, before continuing, “He treats me very well now and cares about me very much, which is different from before.”

Su Shengsheng shook her head helplessly, "Are you sure he treats you well not because you are the daughter of a general guarding the country and your family background will help him?"

Gu Zhixiao hesitated. She knew Mo Jingheng's character to some extent and knew that he would not do anything that was not beneficial to him. But she still wanted to take a gamble and bet that Mo Jingheng had feelings for her.

Seeing that Gu Zhixiao didn't say anything, Su Shengsheng knew that she would not listen to anything he said, so she said, "If you insist on doing this, you must know the consequences. One day he might hurt you. Aren't you afraid?"

Gu Zhixiao pursed his lips, "I'm not afraid, at least I once had it."

"Well, I'll tell the prince, you go back to the mansion and wait."

After hearing this, Gu Zhixiao bowed to Su Shengsheng gratefully, "Thank you, Princess."

After Su Shengsheng calmed Gu Zhixiao down, she watched him get on the carriage and return to the capital, then shook her head, "What a fool."

Xianglong Inn.

Nangong Yuan held Su Xingchen's portrait in his hand and asked in surprise, "Where is he now?"

"Your Highness is now with the Regent Princess."

"Regent Princess?" Nangong Yuan frowned.

Shadow continued to report, "Your Highness is the guard of the Regent Princess."

Nangong Yuan put down the portrait in his hand and looked at the portrait on the table thoughtfully, "This Nangong Li is really lucky. So many tortures can't kill him."

Shadow lowered his head and said, "It was my subordinate's mistake that allowed him to escape."

Nangong Yuan held out his hand, not blaming Shadow, "Don't blame you, his martial arts are better than yours, even though he was injured, he could still escape, otherwise the emperor would not have let him be the crown prince."

"Yes." Shadow looked up at Nangong Yuan, "Then Your Highness, what should we do now?"

Nangong Yuan said thoughtfully: "Find a suitable opportunity to get rid of him, but we must not let the Regent Princess know about it."

"Yes." Shadow saluted and walked out quickly.

However, not long after Nangong Yuan had calmed down, Murong Ye rushed in. Nangong Yuan frowned and looked at Murong Ye who walked in slowly, "Why are you here?"

Murong Ye looked at Nangong Yuan fiercely, "Why are you coming to Ancheng to join in the fun instead of staying in the capital?"

"Humph." Nangong Yuan said disdainfully: "Why, Ancheng is yours? You can come but I can't?"

Murong Ye also got straight to the point and asked, "What? Did you find Nangong Li's whereabouts?"

Nangong Yuan's eyebrows suddenly turned cold, "Your Highness, isn't your meddling a little too much?"

Murong Ye sat down leisurely, with one foot on the table, looking like a dandy boy, and looked at Nangong Yuan with a playful look, "I know who Nangong Li is. If you hurt the people around him, don't blame me for taking action against you."

"you......"

"Oh? By the way, there is one more..." Murong Ye pointed at Nangong Yuan, "Do you think you can kill Nangong Li whenever you want? If it were so easy to kill him, then he would have died countless times in your Tian'an Country."

Nangong Yuan clenched his fingers tightly, "This is our Tianan country's business, it's none of your business."

"Humph, I'm just giving you some good advice. Don't do anything that's not worth the effort. If you don't have anything else to do in Anyun Country, you can go home."

After saying that, he walked out without looking back.

Nangong Yuan looked at Murong Ye's arrogant back and angrily threw the teacup on the table away, "Murong Ye, sooner or later I will make you die in my hands."

afternoon.

Su Shengsheng had nothing to do, and thinking that she had never been to Ancheng before, she suggested going for a walk on the street. Yi Wan said worriedly, "Princess, the prince told you before he left that Ancheng has been uneasy recently, so it's better for you to go out less."

"Nothing, just went out to check and see who's watching."

"This..." Yi Wan said in embarrassment.

Su Shengsheng looked at Su Xingchen who was standing outside the door and said, "Xingchen, what do you think?"

Su Xingchen nodded slightly, "Do whatever you want."

Su Shengsheng laughed, "Xingchen still understands me." Then he stood up and looked at Yi Wan, "Let's go."

Yi Wan glanced at Su Xingchen and nodded and followed him out.

The streets of Ancheng are almost as busy as those of the capital. The only difference is that there are many businessmen in Ancheng, so there are also more foreigners.

Su Shengsheng was walking in front, while Su Xingchen and Yi Wan were following behind. Yi Wan would steal a glance at Su Xingchen from time to time.

He glanced at the princess walking in front of him again, wondering if the princess knew how Su Xingchen felt about her?

Just as I was thinking about it, someone on the street suddenly shouted, "The Saint is back."

Everyone on the street ran towards the city gate.

Su Shengsheng was almost squeezed to the point of falling down. Su Xingchen quickly ran over to support Su Shengsheng. Su Xingchen felt Su Shengsheng approaching and his ears suddenly turned red.

After the crowd had rushed over, Su Xingchen let go of Su Shengsheng. Su Shengsheng said nonchalantly, "Thank you."

Yi Wan bit her lip and ran to Su Shengsheng, "Princess, are you okay?"

"Oh, I'm fine." Su Shengsheng said, looking towards the crowd, "Why are they so excited about the Saint's return?"

Yi Wan explained, "Maybe Princess Zhaohua has returned. She was accepted as a closed disciple by the Second Elder of the Immortal Medicine Valley. Rumor has it that after Princess Zhaohua went to the Immortal Medicine Valley, she had good aptitude and saved many people. The Second Elder praised her for her talent."

"Perhaps because she has stayed in a fairyland like the Fairy Medicine Valley for too long, Princess Zhaohua herself has that kind of fairy-like temperament, so they call Princess Zhaohua the Saint."

Su Shengsheng nodded, "She is from the Immortal Medicine Valley again, why doesn't Baicaorong have this treatment?"

Yi Wan smiled and said, "There are very few female disciples in the Immortal Medicine Valley, and Princess Zhaohua is very talented, so she has attracted so much attention."
