Shang Tingli left the room in a hurry. She still felt uncomfortable when she recalled Ke Ming's smile. It was too aggressive and she couldn't ignore it at all.

No wonder Ke Xingchen said that there might be unrest today. Judging from the current situation, could it be that Ke Ming is going to rebel?

As soon as this thought came to her mind, Shang Tingli's right eyelid twitched violently involuntarily. She quickened her pace. Somehow, at this moment she really wanted to see Ke Xingchen.

What Ke Ming did was Ke Ming's business. Ke Xingchen had the entire Prince Ren's Mansion behind him, and she could not let him go along with Ke Ming.

The path was a bit remote, and there was a rockery on the side of the road. Shang Tingli knew that the place Ke Ming was looking for was probably not in the range of the martial arts arena, no wonder he dared to be so blatant, and he looked like he was not afraid of being discovered by others.

Shang Tingli looked a little unhappy.

Anyone who inexplicably attracts the attention of such a person would feel very unlucky and it would be difficult for him to have a good mood.

"stop."

All I heard was Fei Luan scolding.

Shang Tingli looked up at the road in front of her. There was a man standing in front of Fei Luan, two steps away from her. The man was wearing armor today and looked a bit like a young general.

It was Ji Zhang.

He wanted to go forward, but was stopped by Fei Luan. However, she refused to look away and just kept staring at Shang Tingli. He suddenly asked, "Do you have any regrets or pity?"

Shang Tingli frowned, gave Fei Luan a wink, then walked around Ji Zhang and left.

Ji Zhang wanted to chase him, but was stopped by Fei Luan again. Fei Luan asked, "General Ji, what do you want to do?"

Fei Luan said "Have some self-respect" and turned to chase Shang Tingli. But she saw Ji Zhang also following closely. She got angry all of a sudden and threw Ji Zhang over her shoulder without saying anything, and kicked his legs twice before she was willing to let him go.

After being delayed like this, Shang Tingli's figure disappeared from his sight. Ji Zhang got up from the ground and brushed off the dust and mud on his body.

His eyes were fixed on the direction where Shang Tingli left.

He knew what His Royal Highness Prince Zhou meant, but for some reason, he always felt a sense of resentment in his heart. He always felt that she should regret it. She should regret changing their marriage in the first place.

If she had married him in the first place, she wouldn't have to follow others and end up with a miserable death - yes, in His Royal Highness Prince Zhou's plan, Prince Ren's son did not have any good ending.

Ji Zhang couldn't help but look up at the sky. It was blue sky with white clouds and clear blue sky. It was a very good day.

But his mood was completely the opposite.

Ever since the day when Marquis Yi Zhong personally decided to marry Yi Niang for him, his family has never had a peaceful day.

Lan Xi was a person who loved to show off her temper, but Ai Niang was extremely soft-hearted, so she was bound to be bullied by Lan Xi. Whenever he couldn't stand it, he couldn't help but say a few words for Ai Niang, which ended up making Lan Xi even more unhappy, and she scolded him without mercy.

His house is a mess, which is really exhausting.

It was also at this time that he couldn't help but think of his former fiancée, the current Crown Princess of Prince Ren. He would wonder if she hadn't been the one to exchange the bride, would he have been less worried?

Ji Zhang sighed.

Unfortunately, there is no if, and there was no possibility for him and her. He was the man of His Royal Highness Prince Zhou, and she was the Crown Prince's Consort of someone His Royal Highness Prince Zhou hated. He didn't think he could be valued by His Royal Highness Prince Zhou, and would be willing to let her go for his sake.

……

After returning to the martial arts arena, Shang Tingli did not go to her sisters' place again, but took Fei Luan to find Ke Xin.

It was a coincidence that when Ke Xin was found, besides Sima Yu'an, Ke Yu, Ke Rui and others, there were also He Zhiqiang and Xu Jinshu.

Shang Tingli thought that this would be convenient for her as she didn't have to send Fei Luan to tell them.

As soon as he saw her, He Zhiying stepped forward and grabbed her hand, anxiously asking: "But where have you been? Why did you take so long to come back? We thought you were here to look for the prince, but you are nowhere to be found. I am so worried."

Shang Tingli admitted his mistake in a proper manner: "I'm sorry, dear sister. There won't be a next time."

He Zhixing and his group: "..."

Yi Shuya said dryly: "You only promised this once."

Shang Tingli smiled playfully: "Does that mean he didn't do it again?"

“……” Yi Shuya was silent.

Shang Tingli spoke a few more words to them, then suggested that he wanted to say something to Ke Xin, and then pulled Ke Xin aside.

She said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "My right eyelid has been twitching non-stop. Is it really as you said? I'm afraid I won't have a peaceful day today?"

Shang Tingli's words were meant to test him. She had just met Ke Ming, and she felt that since Ke Xingchen was Ke Ming's man, he must know something, which was why she made such a rash assertion.

Ke Xin paused, and before he could reply, he could hear her inner voice muttering.

[King Zhou actually ordered his men to trick me into a house near the martial arts arena, and said some weird and disgusting things, as well as some seemingly plausible things, all of which hinted that he would rebel.]

[So, Ke Xingchen, are you ready to become a traitor with him? ]

As he listened to her thoughts, Ke Xin's back teeth almost broke. He clenched one hand into a fist behind his back, his face expressionless, and his peach blossom eyes, which were usually brighter than stars, seemed deep and unpredictable.

[But my words seem to be too obvious? Ke Xingchen would not tell the truth, after all, he is a loyal member of the Zhou Wang faction...]

Ke Xin rested his chin with his hanging hand. He did not directly answer her question, but said, "You should stay with me for a while. Swords have no eyes, so don't run around casually."

Shang Tingli was shocked.

She knew that day would come, but she never thought it would come so soon.

In his previous life, Ke Ming also ended up being a traitor, but that was four years later.

Shang Tingli vaguely understood that since many things had changed their trajectory, she could no longer regard what happened in her previous life as predictions.

It was not until this moment that she clearly knew that this life was destined to be different from the previous one. From the moment she and Yu Lanxi were reborn together, some things were bound to change.

In fact, she was not worried that Ke Ming would be invincible. What she was worried about was that Ke Xingchen would become a scapegoat for Ke Ming just like in his previous life, thus implicated the entire Prince Ren's Mansion.

This is what she doesn't want to see.

"Is it..." Shang Tingli really wanted to ask, whether the King of Zhou would rebel, whether you are also plotting treason, but when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back.

But Ke Xin understood what she meant, but he didn't intend to confess to her at the moment.

[Today was somewhat unlucky. Not only did I know the King of Zhou’s chilling thoughts, but I also ran into that bastard Ji Zhang.]

[Regret or pity? Regret for what? Pity for what? Did he mean that she couldn't marry him? Would she feel regret or pity? At the beginning, there was indeed some regret and pity - it was such a pity that he was still alive and could disgust me.]

Ke Xin: “?”

He felt his fist harden.

After adjusting his mindset, Shang Tingli changed the subject: "I originally thought that the Crown Prince would be with His Royal Highness the King of Zhou, but I never thought that he would be with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the King of Xuan."

She couldn't help but smile, this was indeed a surprise to her.
