Regent, your poisonous concubine is going to defy the heavens

Su Zhong cursed for a while before realizing that the Third Prince was still beside him. He immediately said to Su Qingqing in a gentle tone, "Qingqing, go back first. Father will ask the doctor to come over."

Su Qingqing looked at Mo Jingheng, who nodded. Su Qingqing then bowed to Su Zhong and said, "Yes, father. My mother..."

"Don't worry, my father will find the best doctor in the capital to treat you."

"Thank you father."

"Go back quickly. In a few days it will be your auspicious day with the Third Prince. Don't dare to get married like this then."

Su Qingqing touched her face and thought of Su Shengsheng's appearance. She was so angry that her teeth were itching. When her injuries were healed, she would definitely kill Su Shengsheng!

After Su Qingqing left, Su Zhong smiled and said to Mo Jingheng, "Third Prince, please forgive me. I was just irritated by my eldest daughter, so I spoke without restraint."

Mo Jingheng nodded, and thinking of his recent fight with Su Shengsheng, he frowned and asked, "Has Su Shengsheng ever practiced martial arts?"

Su Zhong was puzzled, "What does the Third Prince mean?"

Mo Jingheng told Su Zhong what had just happened in the palace. Su Zhong was also very surprised after hearing it. "My eldest daughter was thrown into the backyard by an official since she was a child. She has never had contact with outsiders since she was a child. How could she be a martial artist?"

"Then I'll have to ask the Prime Minister."

Su Zhong thought about it carefully, and confirmed that no one had taught Su Shengsheng martial arts, so he bowed and said, "This subordinate has something else to report."

"What's the matter?" Mo Jingheng stood there straight with his hands behind his back.

"Su Shengsheng has already cured the poison in her body."

"What?" Mo Jingheng was surprised. How could Su Shengsheng have the ability to remove the poison?

"The last time I asked my daughter to come back, I found that she was completely different from before. Now we have no way to control that girl."

Mo Jingheng thought carefully about the Mid-Autumn Banquet. At that time, he thought that he wanted to show off in front of the Regent. Thinking back to the way Su Shengsheng looked at him just now, he realized that there was no more tenderness in her eyes as before. He didn't expect that she had really changed.

Su Zhong looked at Mo Jingheng with a frown on his face and reminded him, "Third Prince, do you want to get rid of her?"

When Mo Jingheng heard Su Zhong's words, his expression darkened instantly, and he said in a cold voice: "Prime Minister, you are too biased. They are both your daughters, but you can say such things?"

Su Zhong thought that Mo Jingheng disliked his ruthlessness, so he smiled and replied, "The Third Prince is right. I was not thoughtful enough."

"Let's see what the situation is first. If Su Shengsheng really turns against the emperor's uncle, then there's no need to keep him."

"Yes." Su Zhong said respectfully: "Don't worry, Third Prince, since you have married Qingqing, I will do my best to assist you in ascending the throne of the Crown Prince."

Mo Jingheng nodded in satisfaction, "Alright, let Qingqing take good care of her injuries in the next few days, I will go back first."

"Farewell to the Third Prince!"

------

After Su Qingqing's commotion, Su Shengsheng has been quiet for the past few days.

Su Shengsheng was concentrating on making medicine in the pharmacy when Yi Wan opened the door and walked in. "Princess, there's a letter from the palace."

"In the palace?" Su Shengsheng frowned. "Looking for the prince?"

Yi Wan shook her head, "No, it's the Third Prince's wedding. The palace sent a message saying that since the prince is not here, the princess will attend on his behalf."

Su Shengsheng put down the medicine hammer in her hand and asked, "Is the marriage settled just like that?"

"Yes, the palace has prepared an engagement banquet. Originally, today was the Third Prince's wedding, but the Queen Mother said that the date was unlucky, so it was set for the fifteenth of next month."

"It seems that the Queen doesn't want Su Qingqing to marry Mo Jingheng."

Yi Wan said respectfully: "The Queen doesn't like the Second Miss. Everyone in the palace knows it. Many people are not optimistic about the Third Prince's marriage."

"Then what did the Emperor say?"

"The Emperor didn't say anything, he just let the Third Prince make his own decision."

Su Shengsheng said thoughtfully: "This emperor looks kind and amiable on weekdays, but he is hard to see through."

Yi Wan reminded quietly: "Princess, the palace has sent someone to pick you up, we can't delay any longer."

Su Shengsheng came back to her senses and patted the herbs on her legs. "Since we have to go, let's go."

The carriage drove slowly in the middle of the street. Su Shengsheng had lived a relatively peaceful life these past few days, so her injuries had almost healed.

Su Shengsheng yawned, looked at Yi Wan and asked, "How long will it take for the prince to come back?"

Yi Wan calculated the time and said, "My princess, the prince usually comes back within ten days of leaving. If I calculate the time, today is exactly the tenth day, so he should be back soon."

"Yeah." Su Shengsheng nodded.

Qiu Er took the pineapple cake next to her and said, "Princess, please try this. You won't be able to eat it well at the banquet later."

Su Shengsheng looked at the cake in front of her, picked up a piece and started eating, thinking as she ate, "Why does the palace have to let me go there by myself?"

Yi Wan suddenly said, "Princess, when we enter the palace, if the concubines in the harem talk to you, try to ignore them if possible."

"Why?" Su Shengsheng threw the pastry in his hand into his mouth.

"The harem is full of complicated relationships. You are the regent princess, and they must want to use your relationship to win over the regent."

Su Shengsheng suddenly realized: "I understand, you just want the Regent to stand on their side, right?"

"That's right." Yiwan nodded.

Su Shengsheng asked curiously, "Which faction does the prince stand on?"

"The prince will not stand on anyone's side. He has always been a loner, so many people in the harem and the court don't like the prince, but because the prince is so powerful that they can't shake him, they can only endure it."

"Now that the Regent is not here, they will definitely eat you alive. The tricks in the harem are hard to guard against, so Princess must be careful."

"Hearing what you said, I really have to be more careful."

"Whoa..." The carriage stopped.

Qiu Er lifted the curtain and looked, "We are here, Princess."

When Qiu'er was about to get off the car, Su Shengsheng stopped her, "Wait a minute, Qiu'er!"

Qiu Er opened her eyes wide and asked, "What's wrong, Princess?"

"You stay in the carriage and wait for me. Yiwan and I will go in."

Qiu Er asked in confusion: "Why, Princess?"

"Yi Wan just said that the palace is too dangerous. You don't know martial arts, so it's safer to stay in the carriage."

Qiu'er wanted to say something, but Yi Wan said, "Qiu'er, the princess is doing this for your own good."

"Well then." Qiu Er pouted and said, "If the princess doesn't come back within an hour, I will go in to look for you."

"Can you just go into the palace whenever you want?"

"That......"

Su Shengsheng scratched Qiu'er's nose and said, "You are stupid. You can just go to the palace and call someone."

"My slave understands."

After Su Shengsheng and Yi Wan entered the palace, they found that the decorations in the palace were not as luxurious as the last Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.

After just decorating the Shangqing Palace, Su Shengsheng clicked her tongue and said, "Su Qingqing will suffer if she marries the Third Prince."
