Where prosperity ends, flowers never end

The next day—

When Ran Qianxi woke up, the cat had already run out of the room, and she was still being gently held by Shi Huan. His handsome and stern face came into view, and everyone would take a few more glances at him.

"Such a good seedling, she is indeed the material for being an oiran."

The more she watched, the more absorbed she became. She raised her upper body, put her arms around him, and patted him proudly.

"Oh my, I have saved a lot of money over the years, haha..."

‘Dong dong dong’——

There was a soft knock on the door.

"Your Highness, please stand up."

Shi Huan slowly opened his eyes and saw himself in Ran Qianxi's arms. He couldn't help but smile.

"Miss Ran, are you protecting me?"

Ran Qianxi had a smile on her face.

"Yes, yes... I'm worried that you won't sleep well..."

"I don't know who jumped onto my bed with a cat in the middle of the night last night and got into my arms."

Ran Qianxi looked at him awkwardly and let go.

"Oh my, that tree in front of the door is so scary..."

Although she is reluctant to admit it, this sense of security really makes her develop different emotions.

"Get up quickly, the maid is knocking on the door."

Shi Huan raised his hand and touched her tenderly.

"it is good."

The two of them had just gotten up to eat when Jianyu came forward to report.

"Your Highness."

Ran Qianxi looked over and was stunned. Why was Jianyu here? If he was Shi Huan's subordinate, then wouldn't Shi Huan have known about asking him to serve in Buyue Tower?

"Mom..."

Ran Qianxi's hand holding the chopsticks apparently froze.

"Miss Ran."

"Hahaha, Jianyu..."

A hint of fondness appeared on Jianyu's charming and evil face.

"it's me."

"What happened?"

Hearing Shi Huan's question, Ran Qianxi stood up and avoided it.

"Ah... I'm full... you guys chat..."

She ran into Xianzhu after walking a few steps. She instantly realized that the Moon-catching Tower was originally built by Nanyue, either to gather intelligence or to have a more unspeakable secret.

"Meet Miss Ran."

"Haha, that's very polite."

It seems that Xianzhu deliberately approached Xu Yuanchao for a purpose.

"Oh my god... I am finally involved in this trouble..."

Afternoon -

After Shi Huan finished his work, the first thing he did was to look for Ran Qianxi. However, he was stopped by Shi Zhun as he was walking anxiously.

"Huan'er."

Hearing the call, Shi Huan turned his head immediately.

"Father."

Shi Zhun walked a few steps towards him. He was nearly forty years old, but still extremely handsome.

"I heard that you brought back a woman from the Central Plains?"

"Yes."

"Is it your lover?"

Shi Huan hesitated for a moment. It was his lover, but he didn't know that this lover didn't love him.

"Yes but…"

"When will you get married?"

"She...doesn't want to marry her son..."

Shi Zhun glanced at him. He handled government affairs perfectly, but he couldn't even hold on to a woman.

"It's her business if she doesn't want to get married. If you want to marry her, just marry her."

Shi Huan was stunned. He and his father were simply two extremes.

"I'm afraid it won't work."

"Why not? Her identity is unique?"

Shi Huan glanced at him.

"She... is the Empress of Emperor Dachang..."

Shi Zhun's eyes obviously flickered.

"You are quite courageous. What if Dachang sends someone to look for you?"

"My son doesn't know either."

Shi Zhun turned around calmly.

"Either hide it, send it back, or make her fall in love with you."

These three methods are easy to say, but each one is a challenge.

He had only taken two steps when he ran into Ran Qianxi. He was stunned for a moment, perhaps because the desire to conquer her arose in him.

"Who are you?"

Shi Zhun watched her approach step by step, and she suddenly leaned close to him and looked right and left.

"You Nanyue people, are all so good-looking?"

After observing for a while, Ran Qianxi found a familiar look on his face, which was exactly the same as the one Baili Yong had seen on her back then.

"You are Yun Shuang's brother, right?"

Shi Zhun smiled faintly. This gorgeous woman from the Central Plains in front of him was very good at talking.

"Are you the sweetheart he brought back?"

Ran Qianxi was stunned.

"What sweetheart? I'm a hostage."

Shi Zhun frowned and looked back at Shi Huan. He thought that his son was so promising that he didn't even dare to tell others the truth.

"hostage…"

Ran Qianxi moved closer, and her slim figure immediately attracted Shi Zhun.

"Yeah...don't I look like one?"

Looking at her princess's attire, Shi Zhun smiled helplessly, then left calmly.

"The emperor of Dachang knows how to eat good food."

Ran Qianxi walked to Shi Huan without knowing why.

"What did your brother say?"

Shi Huan looked at her tenderly and affectionately.

"He is my father."

Ran Qianxi was stunned. There is always someone better than you.

Royal Garden

Liu Xun and Zuo Qiuhe racked their brains for several days before they figured out a glimpse of the conspiracy, but the mastermind and accomplices never showed up.

After thinking for a while, I could only think that the concubine in the palace had a feud with Ran Qianxi, but those who should be killed or maimed were all known, and the only clue was Shenhu Village.

"Lead troops, regardless of the outcome."

Zuo Qiuhe obviously agreed with him.

"Two hundred is enough for a mob."

"Zuoqiu Zaicheng will stay here. I am enough."

In fact, Zuo Qiu He had guessed something a long time ago, but Zuo Qiu Ruan'er was also her daughter. Even if she guessed that she was the one who did it, she didn't know how to deal with it.

"That's fine. I can take care of Master Liu here."

Liu Xun bowed and left gracefully.

"Do you have anything to tell Dad?"

Zuoqiu Ruan'er didn't dare to look up at him. She was making tea with a distracted mind, and it was obvious that he saw through her!

"How dare you! Xiaoxi is the current queen mother. How dare you collude with the kidnappers to harm her? How many lives in Zuoqiu Mansion are enough for you to take the blame for your crime!"

Zuoqiu Ruan'er put down the tea set angrily!

"Father, I am also your daughter, why do you only have eyes for her?"

'Snapped'--

Zuo Qiuhe slapped her hard on the face, and she instantly lost control of her tears.

"How dare you say such treasonous words? She is the queen of the Ran family, not the Zuoqiu family. If His Majesty knew about this, the crime of deceiving the emperor would be punished with the entire clan!"

Zuoqiu Ruan'er cried and covered her cheeks.

"You don't dare tell her, mother has loved you all my life, you don't have the face to tell her!"

Zuoqiu Ruan'er cried more and more and became more and more collapsed. She could not accept that her father had another daughter, nor could she accept that her father did not love her mother.

"The Queen is already married, and you will always be the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Tell Dad where she is."

Zuoqiu Ruan'er's eyes were full of indifference, as if she was controlled by hatred at this moment.

"I have no idea!"

"What fate do you want to see in the Zuoqiu Mansion before you stop?"

Zuoqiu Ruan'er sneered.

"No one will know."

Zuo Qiuhe stood up angrily and threw her into the empty room.

Tan Qianhuan's secret agent heard everything in the dark.
