Chapter 161 Beating the Prince
"Didn't I tell you not to come over?" Fu Rongxuan's eyes were full of concern for her safety.
"No, how can I sit back and watch you being imprisoned?
"Hu Lianxue's posture was firm, like a plum blossom standing proudly in the cold wind. With her own strength, she blocked several ferocious guards with her weak body.
"Master Fu, please evacuate immediately. Their target is me. Leave quickly without hesitation!"
Hu Lianxue desperately stopped several guards and covered Fu Rongxuan's departure.
During the stalemate, the guard shouted angrily: "That's enough, both of you, don't even think about running away, take both of you back!"
Just when the situation seemed irreversible, there was a sudden movement in the woods. A rapid and orderly sound of footsteps came from afar, and then a group of soldiers quickly surrounded everyone.
It turned out that people from Prince Yu's Palace had arrived. Baili Zhao rushed over immediately after receiving the news.
Several guards were still unaware of their current situation: "You...what do you want to do? This is my master's territory. This man dared to kidnap his beloved. We are just following the rules and performing our duty as guards!"
Baili Zhao directly took out the token from his waist and said, "So, do you know this thing?"
The guards were shocked when they heard this and rubbed their hazy eyes quickly. When they focused their eyes, the royal seal on the token was clearly visible.
They suddenly felt as if they were falling into an ice cellar, realizing that the person standing in front of them was actually a member of the royal family, someone they could not easily offend.
In an instant, their faces turned pale and they all knelt on the ground: "We are so ignorant that we didn't even recognize your true face. We hope you will forgive us for offending us!"
Baili Zhao ignored them and looked at Hu Lianxue who was standing beside him. "Miss Hu, please go immediately and exchange clothes with Shuangshuang. I have made all the arrangements and will definitely protect you and Master Fu and let you leave this place safely."
Hu Lianxue hurriedly bowed and thanked him: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Shuangshuang changed into Hu Lianxue's clothes and felt awkward. "My Lord, why do you want me to wear Miss Hu's clothes?"
"Of course, I want you to lure the snake out of its hole."
Baili Zhao fed the guards a pill and threatened them, "This is poison. If you don't take the antidote in three days, the disease will break out. Take this girl back and hand in the task. If you dare to reveal anything about what happened here, you will die!"
Several guards were horrified and could only act according to Baili Zhao's request.
Shuangshuang then understood the prince's intention. He asked her to pretend to be Miss Hu so that those who dared to covet Miss Hu would suffer the consequences.
"Shuangshuang, you are going alone, are you sure?"
"It's just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning. Your Majesty, please rest assured that Shuangshuang will live up to your trust." Shuangshuang answered confidently.
Baili Zhao asked Yuwen Long to follow him, "I know you are worried, so go with her!"
Yuwen Long turned his worry into joy: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Shuangshuang's figure is similar to Hu Lianxue's, and after she puts on the veil, it is indeed impossible to tell them apart from a distance.
She hid in the room, waiting for Wu Zhizhong's next move.
Yuwen Long hid on the beam and watched everything happening below.
Wu Zhizhong had a smug look on his face, unaware of the subtle changes around him. With a wave of his hand, someone quietly led Shuangshuang into the luxuriously decorated carriage. The door closed lightly, blocking out the prying eyes of the outside world.
Yuwen Long moved and followed the carriage like a ghost, weaving through the streets and alleys until the carriage arrived in front of a hidden and secluded mountain villa.
The villa is hidden among the mountains and shrouded in clouds and mist. It is almost impossible to find its trace unless you look for it deliberately.
"Take advantage of this opportunity, your future will be filled with endless glory and wealth," Wu Zhizhong stopped in front of the villa and turned to whisper to Shuangshuang, his tone containing both temptation and threat, "but if you dare to make the slightest mistake..."
He felt that Miss Hu was unusually well-behaved today and did not make any noise or trouble.
A dinner party was being held at the villa, and Bailihe was among the invited guests. He had originally planned to keep a low profile during these days and had not originally intended to come.
But when he heard that Marquis An Ning was coming to the Eastern Palace, he deliberately came out to avoid him.
After drinking a few glasses of wine, his face turned slightly red, as if he was a little tipsy.
Baili He slowly opened his eyes, and in the haze, a woman in plain white came into view. Wu Zhizhong whispered in his ear flatteringly: "This is a beauty carefully selected for Your Highness. She will definitely please Your Highness."
Bailihe's thoughts involuntarily drifted back to the day he met that stunning beauty.
He couldn't help but wonder secretly, how could Wu Zhizhong be so capable as to bring this woman here?
An indescribable expectation and excitement surged in his heart. He longed to see the woman's face again, and longed for the throbbing he felt when they first met to surge into his heart again.
When there were only two people left in the room, there was an ambiguous atmosphere in the silence. Bailihe forced himself to take slightly shaky steps and slowly approached the woman in white, wanting to tear off her veil.
Shuangshuang's mind suddenly became clear. It turned out that the ultimate target of Wu Zhizhong's flattery was the high and mighty Crown Prince.
She had no intention of letting the prince's plan succeed easily, and she followed Prince Yu's orders in every step, vowing to teach the person behind the scenes a lesson.
Bailihe thought that the other party was playing with him, "My beauty, are you playing hide-and-seek with me? If so, I will accompany you tonight to have fun."
He leaped lightly, trying to catch the nimble figure, but unexpectedly he missed and was tied up by Shuangshuang with a rope instead.
Bailihe finally realized that something was wrong, but the other party said nothing and just slapped him in the face.
He actually dared to touch her. No matter whether he is a prince or an emperor, she would beat him up first to vent her anger.
Before Baili He could react, he was slapped. "How dare you sneak attack me?"
Shuangshuang slapped him even harder, making Bailihe dizzy.
The woman looked frail, but she was very strong. Although Bailihe had practiced martial arts, he was unable to withstand her attack.
Yuwen Long hid in the shadow of the beam, leisurely watching the wonderful show taking place below.
The subtle noises from the outside world came into his ears quietly. He lowered his voice at the right time and reminded: "The time has come. We should evacuate quickly to avoid any complications."
Shuangshuang was still not satisfied, so she kicked him in the lower body again: "I will let you go this time! If you dare to do it again next time, I will cut off your lower body!"
At this moment, Bailihe suddenly woke up from his dream and realized that all this was an elaborate plan.
But before his guards could rush in, the two men disappeared without a trace.
"Your Highness, I just heard your cry for help. What happened?"
Bailihe stood up and said angrily: "Waste, you bunch of waste, are your ears just for show and your eyes blind? Didn't you notice that there was an assassin trying to assassinate you?"
"We thought, we thought..."
The prince always makes a lot of noise when doing things, and they thought this time would be the same as before.
Who would have thought that an assassin would break in, and the prince's face was beaten black and blue, unrecognizable, with his cheeks swollen like steamed buns, which added a bit of tragedy to the comical scene.
Baili He was extremely angry. "Where is Wu Zhizhong? Send him in immediately! If this daring assassin didn't have your instructions, I don't believe there is such a coincidence in the world! Today, I will investigate this matter thoroughly and let him know the consequences of deceiving the emperor!"
"And you, hurry up and chase the assassin back!"
Wu Zhizhong hurriedly knelt down in front of Bailihe, obviously not knowing what had happened.
Baili He covered his cheek and shouted through gnashing teeth, "Wu Zhizhong, you are so bold that you dared to deceive me. Just now, that woman beat me up like this. Tell me, was it your doing?"
Wu Zhizhong kowtowed repeatedly: "It is unjust, Your Highness, how dare I send someone to hurt you!"
Baili He naturally wouldn't believe him, "Come here, bring him to justice. I want to interrogate him personally."
Wu Zhizhong thought it was an opportunity to curry favor, but unexpectedly it was a death warrant. He was completely dumbfounded.
Bailihe was so angry that he had someone thrown into jail and asked the jailer to teach him a lesson.
At this moment, Shuangshuang and Yuwenlong had already escaped. What they were best at was escaping secretly.
Yuwen Long scratched his head and said, "You hit me hard just now."
"You damn prince, I still feel bad that I haven't had enough fun. People like this should be taught a lesson. They really deserve it."
"Aren't you afraid of being caught? I'll punish you!"
Shuangshuang said confidently: "With you by my side, what do I have to fear? You will be my strongest support and protect me."
Yuwen Long rubbed her hair lovingly, "That's right, we are companions who have experienced life and death together, and I will indeed protect you well."
Shuangshuang gently slapped his hand away, pretending to be angry, but actually her heart was filled with warmth: "Stop making trouble."
She fixed her hair and walked ahead of him, "Let's get out of this troubled place as soon as possible!"
……
Nan Rongyi and Leng Shiyun were in the East Palace. Meng Wanran deliberately let the two of them stare outside for an hour before slowly walking out of the bedroom.
She was full of resentment. When she was under house arrest by the prince, no one in the Marquis' Mansion could help her.
But as soon as she saw the two of them, she immediately smiled and said, "Father, mother, my daughter has become increasingly fragile recently, and the little one in my belly is even more naughty, often tossing and turning in my belly, making me feel quite uncomfortable, so I craved a little more of the warmth of the bed, and kept you two waiting for so long, it's a sin."
"Crown Princess, your words are too serious. The heir to the throne should be the most important thing."
Nan Rongyi had a cold expression on his face, and Leng Shiyun touched his arm to encourage him to show some enthusiasm.
Ever since she knew that the person in front of her was not her biological daughter, Nan Rongyi felt complicated and could no longer get close to her.
But with his wife's reminder, he still reluctantly took out an exquisite brocade box from his sleeve.
"Your Majesty, this is a piece of rare jade that I found by chance when I traveled to Youzhou. I am here to present it to you."
Meng Wanran took the brocade box and gently opened the lid. A touch of emerald green appeared before her eyes, as if it condensed the essence of heaven and earth, which was breathtaking.
Marquis An Ning was willing to do so, so she would no longer be polite.
"Thank you, father, for still remembering your daughter."
Now the word "daughter" sounds extremely harsh in Nan Rongyi's ears.
"It just so happens that I want to have a private conversation with you." Meng Wanran pretended to wipe the corners of her eyes, "You also know how difficult my life in the East Palace is. Now I can only rely on you."
Just then, Marquis An Ning returned. Meng Wanran thought to herself that she wanted to take advantage of this opportunity and use a little trick to use Marquis An Ning's power to slightly balance Bai Li He. She pretended to be intimate with Marquis An Ning and wanted to hold his arm.
However, Marquis An Ning seemed to be aware of something. He slightly tilted his body and took a few steps back. His behavior was polite and calm.
"As for the Crown Prince's affairs, although I am outside the court, I have also heard about it. His behavior is indeed inappropriate. I will choose an opportunity to have a frank discussion with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and strive to resolve the misunderstanding. Now that you are the Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace, you should put the overall situation first. I will do my best to assist you."
Meng Wanran did not have any further doubts, but felt that Marquis An Ning was too rigid.
Leng Shiyun wanted to take the opportunity to find out the whereabouts of Hu Lianxue. She tried to find out some clues about Hu Lianxue's whereabouts from Meng Wanran's words, but Meng Wanran seemed to have no idea what had happened.
She began to wonder where Lianxue had been abducted to.
