"Isn't it just a fall injury? Do you want to dissect the white horse and force it to confess? Since she is fine, this matter ends here and there is no need to investigate further."

That white horse was sent by King Shuo.

If Yan Chu insisted on digging deep into the matter and asked about King Shuo, she really didn't know how to explain it.

"But do you think this is Concubine Shen's plan?"

"It's just a guess. I thought about it and felt that she is not that kind of person. Anyway, let's forget about it."

She held her head high and spoke confidently.

But Yan Chu was more suspicious of this matter and thought there was something else going on.

What is Su Rong hiding?

Otherwise, with her personality, how could she just let it go?

"Since she's fine, let's go."

Then Su Rong dragged Yan Chu away.

But today, the two of them were so close, who knew if Shen Zhishu did it on purpose? She would never let this matter go.

Yan Chu left with Su Rong, but returned to his own bedroom.

Su Rong stomped her feet in anger, citing fatigue as an excuse.

But Yan Chu didn't care about her feelings and left resolutely.

After changing into clean clothes.

Taking advantage of the night, Yan Chu immediately gathered people.

"Remember, you must quietly send the body of the white horse to the funeral home and have the coroner examine it thoroughly. Also... investigate the origins of this white horse."

Su Rong said that this white horse was new to her and she wanted to test its speed because it was new to her.

Yan Chu was a little puzzled at first. With Su Rong's personality, she liked fierce horses. The white horse was too docile and well-behaved, and it didn't seem like something she would choose.

And now, because of what she said just now, he was even more suspicious whether this horse was prepared for Shen Zhishu from the beginning.

In the evening, Su Rong changed into casual clothes and went out in a low-key manner.

There is a very hidden corner in the street and alley next to Prince Shuo’s Mansion.

Apart from the bright moonlight illuminating everything at the entrance of the alley, no one could notice it.

"Come to me so late, what's wrong?"

King Shuo was wearing a thin nightgown with lip balm stained on the collar, and he smelled of powder.

Su Rong glanced at him twice and took two steps back indifferently.

"The horse you sent is dead."

If the white horse had not been suspected by Yan Chu, she would not have come.

Later, she thought about it calmly and was still worried that some clues would be found about Bai Ma, so she felt it necessary to find King Shuo first.

"How is that possible? That white horse was specially bred by overseas nobles. In addition to being docile, it also has a longer lifespan than ordinary horses and is physically strong..."

"Before it died, it suddenly went crazy."

Su Rong didn't care about the origin of the white horse, she just wanted to know if there was really something wrong with the horse. She didn't want Yan Chu to suspect her.

King Shuo looked innocent and was stunned for a few seconds after hearing this.

"So you are suspicious of me? Do you think I have bad intentions in giving you the white horse?"

He seemed to find this quite funny, and when he asked, a nonchalant smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The question left Su Rong speechless.

But at this moment, King Shuo suddenly took a step closer.

"Rong'er, you should know how I feel about you. Even if you choose the King of Qin, I will always treat you the same. I gave you a horse just to please you..."

"The horse is dead, and Shen Zhishu is injured. The body is in the forest. Send someone to deal with it as soon as possible. Don't let anyone find out that the horse was given to me by you."

Su Rong heard him say this and interrupted him impatiently.

She also felt that King Shuo would not harm her.

But the horse was always an uncertain bomb, and she couldn't leave any handle.

But when King Shuo heard this, he smiled, and his slender shadow in the moonlight moved a little closer to Su Rong.

The smell of powder made her feel a little nauseous.

But his face was also very handsome.

Different from Yan Chu's coldness, King Shuo has soft features, is dignified and elegant, seems very approachable, and his emotions are easily revealed.

When a pair of overflowing peach blossom eyes look at people, they always seem affectionate.

When Su Rong first came to this world and before she met Yan Chu, she was actually fascinated by this face.

"If you were so worried about the King of Qin discovering our relationship, how could Rong'er come to look for me in the middle of the night?"

King Shuo immediately understood what Su Rong meant.

This is because he was worried that Yan Chu would find out about their relationship through Bai Ma.

He has a nice face, but he has too many women. He also ignores authority and treats women as tools. He will not dismiss the women who are helpful to him for her.

So she was destined not to choose him.

"After that, I won't look for you anymore, and you should get out of Tinghonglou as soon as possible. We will have nothing to do with each other in the future."

Since she has chosen Yan Chu, she should stand firm.

After Su Rong finished speaking, she resolutely decided to leave.

But King Shuo quickly blocked him in the corner.

"If you say one word, I will abandon my concubine and come to see you. I will leave the land of tenderness behind to touch a little hot pepper like you. Rong'er, how can you still have the heart to say such cruel words to me?"

He looked at Su Rong with affectionate eyes without any hesitation, and it seemed that he felt quite aggrieved when he said this.

Damn scumbag.

Su Rong just thought these words were disgusting, so she kicked him mercilessly.

"Do you want to hear me? Are you talking like a human being? How could the women around you be fooled by your sweet words?"

Isn't his behavior very bad?

Su Rong looked disgusted, but she didn't run away.

"If I can deceive you, I don't want anyone else."

King Shuo was not angry and still looked very affectionate.

Tonight, only the moonlight knows what happened here.

However, Shen Zhishu really suffered a lot that night. He was woken up by pain many times and his whole body was unable to move.

Later, when she could no longer bear it, she took the tranquilizer pills left by the court doctor.

As soon as I took the medicine, I fell into a deep sleep.

In the words of the court physician, sleep can be used to numb the pain.

Just like that, she lay in bed in a daze for three days.

Yan Chu also came to see her during this period, but the tranquilizer pills were too effective and it was difficult for her to stay awake.

It was Bitao who kept telling her that the prince had been there.

And he comes here twice a day. Although his stay is short, it shows that he is thoughtful.

It was early this morning.

Shen Zhishu finally regained some energy and sat up from the bed.

Yan Chu came.

But there were other people following him.

"Shu'er, you're awake."

Zhao Rui rushed past Yan Chu and came to her side.

He held her hand excitedly, and his eyes were red the next second.

"Look at you, how did you get yourself into this state?"

She was so distressed that she was about to cry.

Shen Zhishu smiled weakly, saying that he was fine now and would be fine after some rest.

"What's good about that? Your legs are broken. How can they recover if you don't take care of them for a few months? And you have so many scars on your body. If you leave scars, it will be ugly. The prince has no feelings for you in the first place. If you make yourself ugly again, how are you going to live in this palace in the future?"

She ignored Yan Chu's presence and kept talking.
