As soon as Su Shengsheng finished speaking, Mo Chenyuan picked up Su Shengsheng and put her on the carriage. He moved so fast that Su Shengsheng didn't even have time to react before she sat on the carriage.

Just as Su Shengsheng was about to go down, Mo Chenyuan restrained her hands.

"What does the prince want to do?"

Mo Chenyuan looked at Su Shengsheng's fair and smooth face with his deep eyes, and slowly moved closer, so close that Su Shengsheng could hear Mo Chenyuan's steady breathing.

"Isn't it time to settle the accounts between us?" Mo Chenyuan's low voice sounded.

Su Shengsheng was stunned. "What are you going to settle?"

Mo Chenyuan smiled slightly and reminded: "Drunk Red Tower!"

"Oiran Banquet!"

Su Shengsheng's memories came back to her, and she remembered that she would not return to the palace, so she stopped pretending.

I didn't expect to meet Mo Chenyuan in Ancheng. Now Mo Chenyuan wants to settle the matter of knocking him out in Zuihonglou.

Shengsheng laughed awkwardly, "The prince strangled me that day and almost killed me. I had no choice but to knock the prince unconscious."

"But you still kicked me!"

"Uh..." Su Shengsheng rolled her eyes inwardly. A prince was so petty that he even had to remember such a small matter. She had already forgotten it.

Mo Chenyuan narrowed his eyes and looked at Su Shengsheng, "What's your explanation?"

"That..." Su Shengsheng said directly: "The prince pinched my neck, shouldn't I kick him twice?"

Mo Chenyuan lowered his eyes slightly, let go of Su Shengsheng's hands, sat down and asked: "What did you do at Zuihonglou that night?"

Su Shengsheng moved her hands, and her eyes were slightly stunned after hearing this. She couldn't say that she went to see what he and Liu Chenyan were doing in there.

After thinking for a while, he answered: "You are allowed to go to Zuihonglou, but I am not allowed to go?"

Mo Chenyuan was stunned when he raised the teacup. Su Shengsheng coughed twice awkwardly and then said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I won't tell anyone that you've been to Zui Hong Lou."

Mo Chenyuan didn't say anything and took a sip of tea.

Su Shengsheng couldn't help but stepped forward and asked, "Does Miss Liu know about the prince's hidden illness?"

Mo Chenyuan spat out the tea he had just drunk. Seeing Mo Chenyuan's big reaction, Su Shengsheng thought that she had touched Mo Chenyuan's sore spot.

He quickly picked up the handkerchief beside him and wiped the spilled water for Mo Chenyuan, "I didn't mean it."

The hand holding the handkerchief was suddenly stopped by Mo Chenyuan, "Who told you that I have a hidden illness?"

Su Shengsheng stared at those innocent eyes, "People outside said that the prince was injured a year ago and has a hidden illness."

Mo Chenyuan put down the teacup and said nothing. Su Shengsheng thought that Mo Chenyuan was sad, so she comforted him: "Don't worry, Your Majesty. Although it can't be cured, we can adopt a child to continue the family line..."

"Bang..." Su Shengsheng's back was against the carriage, and Mo Chenyuan suddenly came in.

Su Shengsheng stuttered as she looked at Mo Chenyuan, "Prince...Prince..."

Mo Chenyuan suddenly laughed, "Since I have a hidden illness, what are you afraid of?"

Su Shengsheng swallowed and said, "Your Highness is really good at joking. What do I have to be afraid of?" Then she stood up and sat down. Mo Chenyuan did not move away.

The warm breath spread around Su Shengsheng's ears, causing Su Shengsheng to feel numb and itchy.

But Mo Chenyuan acted as if nothing had happened, "I will take you back."

The carriage started to move slowly, and Su Shengsheng's fair face turned visibly red. She felt very hot in the carriage and drank several sips of tea in succession.

Mo Chenyuan picked up the book and read it leisurely. Looking at Su Shengsheng, the corners of his mouth curled up.

Tongfu Inn.

Su Shengsheng got off the carriage, and Qiu'er and Su Xingchen ran over, "Miss, you are finally back."

Su Xingchen stared at the departing carriage with a complicated look in his eyes.

Su Shengsheng patted Qiu'er's hand and said, "I'm fine. The problem has been solved."

Qiu Er asked quickly: "Has the murderer of the bride been found?"

"Not yet. The murderer has nothing to do with the Zhu family."

Su Shengsheng looked at Su Xingchen who was staring at the departing carriage, and waved her hand in front of Su Xingchen's eyes.

Su Xingchen came back to his senses, and Shengsheng asked: "Why are you staring at the carriage?"

Su Xingchen pursed her lips, "Then... the carriage..."

"Oh, it belongs to the prince."

Qiu Er said in surprise: "The prince has also come to Ancheng?"

"Yes." Shengsheng stretched lazily and walked into the inn. The innkeeper immediately came forward and said, "It's great that the young lady is safe and sound."

Su Shengsheng smiled and said: "Thank you for your concern, boss. Do you have any food? I'm a little hungry."

"Yes, yes." The shopkeeper said happily: "Young lady, please sit down for a moment."

"it is good."

As it was getting close to evening, there were not many people in the inn. After the waiter brought some food, Su Shengsheng went upstairs comfortably after having eaten and drunk her fill.

Qiu Er still said worriedly from behind: "Miss, I am still a little worried."

"What are you worried about?" Su Shengsheng opened the door and went in.

"I'm worried that the murderer will come back."

Shengsheng sat at the table and poured himself a cup of tea. He took a sip and said, "Don't worry. Your young lady has a plan to deal with it."

------

Su Xingchen stood silently at the door. When Qiu'er came out and saw Su Xingchen standing there, she asked, "Why are you still here?"

"Protect her."

Qiu Er nodded, "Then the young lady's safety is in your hands."

Su Xingchen didn't say anything. Qiu'er returned to the room yawning. Thinking of the countermeasures the young lady had mentioned, she felt relieved.

At night, the bright moon hung high in the dark sky. A black shadow jumped down from above the Tongfu Inn and landed steadily on the roof of Su Shengsheng's house.

Su Xingchen heard the voice, tiptoed up, looked at the man in black and asked: "Who are you?"

The man in black didn't say anything, he just took the sword in his hand and started fighting with Su Xingchen.

The man in black was very powerful and Su Xingchen was no match for him. He was soon kicked to the ground and spat out blood.

Su Xingchen watched the man in black jump down, open the door and go in, then he quickly stood up to stop him. Seeing this, the man in black threw out several silver needles.

Su Xingchen failed to dodge and fell to the ground.

The man in black carried Su Shengsheng out and left without any delay.

------

The sky is bright.

Qiu'er came out yawning, her eyes opened, and her mouth, which had just closed, opened again.

Seeing the door in front of her open and Su Xingchen lying on the ground, Qiu'er felt that something was wrong and ran into the house, "Miss, Miss!"

He anxiously looked around the room, but didn't see Su Shengsheng, so he ran out again, squatted down and shook Su Xingchen.

"Su Xingchen! Su Xingchen!"

Su Xingchen showed no signs of waking up, and Qiu'er started crying anxiously. If she had known earlier, she would have accompanied the young lady last night.

The shopkeeper and the waiter heard the noise in the front yard and rushed over immediately.

Seeing Qiu'er sitting on the ground and crying, the shopkeeper hurried forward and asked: "Miss Qiu'er, what happened?"

Then he looked at Su Xingchen who was lying on the ground, "Who is this guy..."

"My lady is missing!"
