Su Shengsheng stood up, looked down at Su Qingqing, and said with a smile: "If it's yours, it's always yours. If it's not yours, it's useless even if you do everything you can."

"Su Shengsheng, I don't need you to preach to me. Things can be successful or unsuccessful. I understand this principle. Now, I am in your hands. You can kill me or chop me up as you like."

"Humph, now you're not afraid of your own life?"

Su Qingqing glared at Su Shengsheng.

Su Shengsheng looked out the window. It was already past noon. She didn't want to kill Su Qingqing at first, but Su Qingqing challenged her bottom line again and again. In order to achieve her own goal, she teamed up with Yuan Shu to harm the people of Ancheng.

This account has to be settled!

Then he slipped a white porcelain bottle from his sleeve and placed it in front of Su Qingqing, saying, "Since you and I are both members of the Su family, I will give you a quick death."

Su Qingqing looked at the white porcelain bottle that was still shaking on the ground, picked it up without waiting for it to stop, and then poured the pills into her hands.

Then he raised his head and looked at Su Shengsheng, saying in a cold voice: "Su Shengsheng, ever since you married the Regent, I knew that one of us would lose, but I was arrogant and underestimated you, and I deserved it. If there is a next life, I will definitely be the winner."

Su Shengsheng turned around and walked out without saying anything, and then a voice came in from outside, "Then we'll talk about it in your next life."

Su Qingqing looked at Su Shengsheng's tough back, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and then her head tilted back slightly...

------

The Third Prince's Mansion.

When Su Shengsheng rushed to the Third Prince's Mansion at full speed, Gu Zhixiao was lying quietly in the house. He was wearing the wedding dress of the Queen of Anyun Kingdom, but it looked a bit old, and the originally bright red color had faded a bit.

When worn by Gu Zhixiao, who is wearing delicate makeup, it further highlights Gu Zhixiao's charm as the mother of the country. It's a pity...

Su Shengsheng sat on the bed and slowly reached out to tidy up Gu Zhixiao's dress, then instructed Ginkgo: "Change her clothes, your young lady doesn't like it."

Ginkgo wiped the tears from her face and nodded, "Yes."

Then he asked everyone to prepare together. Su Shengsheng stood up and walked to the dressing table. She looked at the white jade hibiscus hairpin in the dressing box with calm eyes, and slowly picked it up.

She still remembered that she had asked a famous craftsman to make this hairpin, and the patterns carved on it were so lifelike that it seemed as if water could drip from the pistil.

Su Shengsheng shook her head helplessly, "Zhixiao, Zhixiao, why are you so stupid?"

Ginkgo had already changed Gu Zhixiao into her usual aqua blue dress. Seeing Su Shengsheng staring at the hairpin in her hand, she walked up to her and said in a low voice, "Princess, the hairpin you gave to the Third Imperial Concubine is very much in our hearts. We are almost reluctant to wear it, always afraid of breaking it."

When Su Shengsheng heard this, a warm current welled up in her eyes and she raised her head with redness at the corners of her eyes.

She stood up and walked to the bedside, took off the extra jewelry on Gu Zhixiao's head, put on the white jade hibiscus hairpin, then gently stroked Gu Zhixiao's face and said softly: "Now you are free, I hope you can open your eyes in the next life and not be bound by love."

Ginkgo couldn't hold back her tears. Su Shengsheng held back her tears and said to her, "Take her back to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and bury her with the general."

"Yes."

After Su Shengsheng had arranged everything, Qiu'er ran over quickly from a distance, "Princess, Princess, something happened."

Qiu'er ran over anxiously. Su Shengsheng frowned and looked at Qiu'er who stopped in front of her and said, "Didn't I tell you to wait in Ancheng? Why are you here?"

"Princess, after you left, someone from the Immortal Doctor Valley came to deliver a message saying that Mr. Baicao is in danger..." Qiu'er choked up as she spoke, her eyes full of worry.

Su Shengsheng soothed him: "Don't worry, tell me slowly, what happened to Baicaorong?"

Qiu'er hurriedly took out the thing wrapped in white cloth from her arms, and Su Shengsheng saw a jade pendant stained with blood inside.

She recognized the jade pendant; it was Baicaorong's personal item. Now that it was covered in blood, Baicaorong was afraid that the situation was not optimistic.

Qiu'er cried anxiously, "Princess, let's go and save Mr. Baicao."

Su Shengsheng raised her eyes and looked in the direction of the imperial palace, thinking that Mo Chenyuan should have finished dealing with the affairs in the palace soon. He was still needed to take charge of the situation here, so it was better not to tell him.

Then he said to Qiu'er: "Let's go."

Qiu'er hurriedly followed Su Shengsheng.

Yunsheng country.

Prince's Mansion.

Although Murong Ye has returned, his mind is still on Anyun Country, and he has been keeping an eye on Su Shengsheng's movements.

As soon as Ning Hai left, Murong Ye's secret guard came in to report.

"Your Highness, the crisis in Anyun Kingdom has been resolved. The eldest prince Mo Jingsu has been imprisoned and will be executed on a chosen day. Mo Jingheng is dead."

"Where is Su Shengsheng?" Murong Ye asked weakly.

"Su Shengsheng is already on the way to the Immortal Medicine Valley."

"She's alone?" After hearing this, Murong Ye frowned slightly and sat up from the recliner. Because of the large amplitude of the movement, he coughed twice.

"She brought a maid with her."

"Ahem..." After Murong Ye recovered, he said in a hoarse voice: "Send someone to follow her and make sure she is safe."

The secret guard looked at him in embarrassment and did not obey the order.

Murong Ye looked over and asked, "What's wrong?"

The secret guard immediately lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, we don't have many people left. The others have been detained by His Majesty and are still in the palace."

After hearing this, Murong Ye smiled helplessly, "It seems that the emperor is serious about this. Whatever." Then he stood up from the chair and said, "I will go by myself."

The secret guard panicked and hurriedly stopped him, saying, "No, Your Highness. Your body has not fully recovered yet, and you are exhausted from the long journey..."

"Nothing, I'm much better now."

Murong Ye said this not to be brave. Ever since he took the medicine given by Su Shengsheng, he felt that his body was slowly recovering. Although he could not recover to the same state as before, he was not so weak that he would fall down if pushed by the wind.

Even if his skills cannot be restored much, at least he can stand in front of Su Shengsheng and protect her at the critical moment.

He always felt guilty towards Su Shengsheng. Although Su Shengsheng said that she did not blame him, he forced her, imprisoned her, and caused her to fall off a cliff. These were things that he would never be able to erase from his heart.

The secret guard wanted to say something else, but was shut up by a look from Murong Ye.

The secret guard had no choice but to shut his mouth and lower his head.

"What are you still standing there for?"

"Yes." The secret guard quickly got up and opened the door.

As soon as Murong Ye took a step forward, Ning Hai appeared in the yard. Murong Ye said helplessly but didn't say anything.

Ning Hai had heard everything outside. He held the hilt of the sword in his hand and asked, "Your Highness, are you going to look for Su Shengsheng again?"

"Ah."
