Regent, your poisonous concubine is going to defy the heavens

"Get up and answer." Mo Chenyuan's voice rang out.

Liu Chenyan nodded, "Yes." When she stood up, her brows furrowed slightly, perhaps because of the wound.

But he soon recovered as usual, and said, "Your Highness, the eldest and third princes in the capital have already gathered their own troops and entered the palace, forcing the emperor to write an edict to pass on the throne."

"The Second Prince has been imprisoned in the mansion and is under heavy guard."

Mo Chenyuan looked calm, "What do those old officials think?"

"Half of them are from the eldest prince, and half are from the third prince. The general who guards the country has been imprisoned in the mansion because he assisted the second prince."

"Humph." Mo Chenyuan chuckled, "It seems that these two are still quite capable."

Liu Chenyan nodded and said, "The eldest prince and the third prince seem to have reached a cooperation, but I guess that if the emperor writes the edict of succession, they will definitely kill each other."

Mo Chenyuan tapped his slender fingers on the table, "They are both quite capable."

Liu Chenyan continued, "Your Majesty, all the people in Shura Hall have been dispersed, and I can no longer contact them."

Mo Chenyuan was not surprised. Since they were able to block the city gates of the capital, that meant that nothing could threaten them.

Liu Chenyan watched Mo Chenyuan fall into deep thought, and then said excitedly: "My Lord, the news from Yunsheng Country said that you and the princess fell off a cliff, and your life or death is unknown."

"Now that I see that you and the princess are safe and sound, I am relieved."

At that time, Su Shengsheng was already in a state of panic in the room at the other end. She tossed and turned on the bed, and then paced back and forth in the room.

Finally, he leaned against the door, stroking his chin, "Hiss, it's been almost half an hour, why haven't you come back yet?"

Somehow, the image of Liu Chenyan lying in Mo Chenyuan's arms suddenly appeared in her mind, and she immediately shouted, "No." She was worried and had to go and check.

As soon as Su Shengsheng opened the door, she almost fell into the arms of Mo Chenyuan who was standing outside. Fortunately, she stopped herself.

Mo Chenyuan looked at Su Shengsheng with a smile on his face and said, "Princess, are you...preparing to go out?"

"Ah?" Su Shengsheng didn't dare look at Mo Chenyuan, and replied awkwardly: "Yes, I'll go out for a while."

"It's so late, what is the princess doing out?"

"Oh, I...I..." Su Shengsheng covered her stomach and said, "I suddenly feel hungry, so I'm going out to find something to eat."

Mo Chenyuan suddenly leaned over and came closer, "Really?"

Su Shengsheng suddenly blushed, as if she had done something wrong. She didn't dare to look directly into Mo Chenyuan's eyes. She pushed Mo Chenyuan away and said, "Yes, I suddenly want to eat something. Have you...have you finished talking to her?"

"Yeah." Mo Chenyuan's low voice sounded.

"Oh, then I'm going to go get something to eat. Do you want to come with me?"

Mo Chenyuan smiled as he looked at Su Shengsheng, whose face was slightly red, and suddenly touched her with his slender fingers, "Why is your face blushing, Princess?"

Su Shengsheng suddenly covered her face, "Where...where is that?"

Liu Chenyan coughed at the right moment from behind. Su Shengsheng immediately looked behind Mo Chenyuan, only to see Liu Chenyan standing there awkwardly.

Su Shengsheng immediately became less shy and looked at Mo Chenyuan, "This is..."

Mo Chenyuan said calmly: "She is injured."

Su Shengsheng then realized that Mo Chenyuan wanted her to check Liu Chenyan's wound. Seeing Liu Chenyan's pale face, she must have been seriously injured. So she forgot about what she cared about and walked in holding Liu Chenyan's hand.

When Mo Chenyuan was about to go in, Su Shengsheng turned around and raised her eyebrows and asked, "Does Your Majesty want to come in and see?"

Mo Chenyuan shook his head and smiled, "I'll help you close the door."

When closing the door, Mo Chenyuan whispered, "Princess, you have to hurry up, or I will be jealous."

Su Shengsheng rolled her eyes at Mo Chenyuan. What was there for two women to be jealous of? She then closed the door.

Liu Chenyan looked at Su Shengsheng and started laughing.

"What are you laughing at?" Su Shengsheng asked puzzledly.

Liu Chenyan shook her head. "Looking at you, Princess, from a close distance, I seem to understand why the prince likes you."

"why?"

"The princess's temperament is truly heroic, not pretentious, and I envy her very much."

"Uh..." Su Shengsheng sat down awkwardly, "I've been suppressed for a long time since I was a child, so this is why I'm like this."

Then Su Shengsheng changed the subject and asked, "Where are you injured?"

Liu Chenyan said softly, "The back."

"Let me see."

Liu Chenyan nodded. After a moment, Su Shengsheng looked at the deep wound on Liu Chenyan's thin back, about an inch in diameter, and frowned slightly, "Why don't you treat the wound first?"

"The prince is still waiting for me to report the situation in the capital."

Su Shengsheng opened the medicine box, took out hemostatic cotton and started to stop the bleeding for Liu Chenyan. There was some pain in her eyes. Any girl would be in pain if she was injured like this, right?

"It hurts, right?" Su Shengsheng said softly.

Liu Chenyan's back was obviously stunned, her pupils slightly shrank, and then she opened her mouth and asked: "After so many years, have you adapted to it?"

Su Shengsheng was surprised, "Are you also from Shura Hall?"

"Yeah." Liu Chenyan nodded.

Su Shengsheng paused while applying the medicine. "I thought the people in Shura Hall were all men. I didn't expect there would be a beautiful lady like you."

Liu Chenyan smiled, "In fact, there are no women in Shura Hall. I asked to go in myself."

Su Shengsheng listened to Liu Chenyan's words and said while bandaging the wound, "Could it be that you are like Yi Liu and Yi Wan, and you are willing to stay by his side just to repay him?"

Liu Chenyan nodded slightly, "Your Majesty rescued me from the Drunken Red Mansion."

Su Shengsheng paused, "Zui Honglou?"

"Princess, please don't misunderstand. The prince was passing by Zuihonglou, and I just ran away from Zuihonglou. The prince saw that I was forced, so he redeemed me and gave me freedom."

"Oh." Su Shengsheng continued to bandage the wound without saying anything else.

Liu Chenyan felt that what she said might not be accurate. After she was bandaged and dressed, she explained, "Princess, please don't misunderstand me. I don't dare to have any improper thoughts about you. I already have someone I like in my heart, so I will stay with you."

"Are you interested in someone close to the prince?"

Liu Chenyan nodded shyly.

Su Shengsheng asked without thinking: "Is it Ling Su?"

Liu Chenyan was surprised and asked, "How did the princess know?"

"The prince only has Ling Yu and Ling Su by his side. Ling Yu likes Yi Liu, so it can only be Ling Su."

"The princess guessed correctly."

After Su Shengsheng chatted with Liu Chenyan, he felt that although Liu Chenyan looked like a worldly woman, she was very elegant in her every move, so he couldn't help but chat a few more words with her.

"Does Ling Su know?"

Liu Chenyan shook her head and said, "I am no longer innocent. Brother Ling is so kind, I am afraid that he will be offended."

Su Shengsheng immediately became anxious, "How could it be? Believe me, Ling Su is not that kind of person."

"Really?" Liu Chenyan raised her head and looked at Su Shengsheng uncertainly.
