After the tragic death of the daughter of the emperor, she returned to her former marriage and refus

Before he could finish his words, a dark shadow flashed by, and the two of them were hit on the forehead and fainted behind the door that had just been opened.

The black shadow then flashed towards Xiulian and Xiaoye.

Xiulian and Xiaoye had originally hidden in a forest belt outside the mansion. After waiting for a moment, they saw that the door was only open, but no one was in sight. After waiting for a moment more, they hesitated and heard Yan Yunshu say anxiously, "Let's go! Hurry up!"

After saying that, the three of them dragged the craftsman to the back door.

The three women were already out of breath. The black shadow flashed in front of them, and before they could scream, they saw the black shadow blocking the craftsman with his backhand, and then flew towards Fanghua Garden with a light skill. Yan Yunshu was shocked and hurriedly followed, but saw the black shadow landed directly in front of the secret residence she had set up for Nanny Lin and the other two in Fanghua Garden, and then took the person in in front of the three people.

Yan Yunshu followed closely behind, and only when the door closed did she finally let go of her anxious heart.

She didn't know who this person was, but she assumed he must be someone who wanted the craftsman to live and had no ill intentions. After the shadow placed the craftsman beside the bed, he pulled out a bottle of medicine from his bosom and handed it to Xiulian.

Xiulian understood and quickly opened the bottle of medicine and fed it to Qiaojiang. Qiaojiang coughed a few times, finally regained his breath, and then fell into a coma.

Seeing that the craftsman had finally saved his life, Yan Yunshu breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at the man wrapped in black, his eyes invisible, and said, "Thank you very much, benefactor. I wonder if you are an acquaintance of this craftsman?"

The man in front of him shook his head.

"Then why did your benefactor help you today?"

"Passing by!" Two words finally emerged from under the black mask. Yan Yunshu felt that the voice was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't put her finger on why. Just as she was wondering, a few more words emerged from under the black mask, "Prince Huai's Mansion."

Yan Yunshu suddenly realized that the person in front of her was the Second Prince's secret guard. It seemed that the Second Prince did something after agreeing to the alliance that day. She couldn't help but feel more relieved.

She pointed at herself and said, "Are you the Second Prince's secret guard? Protecting me?"

"No, just passing by."

"Oh!" Yan Yunshu laughed awkwardly a few times, thinking that since they had formed an alliance, Xu Jinghuai must have sent secret guards to protect her. It turned out that she was just being wishful thinking.

"Anyway, thank you for stopping by today. Please thank me and your prince when you return home."

"I'm busy, go and thank them yourself."

"Uh..." Yan Yunshu's dignified smile froze on her face. As expected, every master has his own secret guards? Are they always so ruthless in their words?

"Okay then. I'll definitely come to thank your prince in person someday."

"What time is the next day?"

"Ah? Some other day!"

"Perfunctory!"

"No, how could that be? I must come to visit you before the Minor Snow solar term."

"Lantern Festival!"

Tianze Kingdom's quarterly Lantern Festival? Five days later, it was her nightmare! She remembered every Lantern Festival for the past three years: a day of physical and mental torture, humiliated and mocked by a group of young men and women, kneeling and begging the Crown Prince for forgiveness. That scene often appeared in her nightmares, leaving her with a shadow over Tianze's Lantern Festival, and she didn't want to go out on that day.

She just wanted to stay away from these people.

However, the Tianze Kingdom has a regulation that during every Lantern Festival, all unmarried young men and women from aristocratic families, regardless of their status, must gather in Tianxiang Tower for at least one incense stick of time. Only after one incense stick of time can they go out and play on their own.

Firstly, it shows the importance that Tianze Kingdom attaches to the Lantern Festival, and secondly, it also provides a good place for children from various aristocratic families to go on blind dates in disguise.

Seeing the obvious hesitation on her face, the man in black turned around and said, "If you don't want to go to Tianxiang Tower, Your Highness can find another place."

Yan Yunshu gritted her teeth and said, "No, it's Tianxiang Tower!"

In this life, she wants to see if Tianxianglou is still a cannibal!

The man in black paused, hummed, and slipped out the door.

Yan Yunshu looked at the back of the man in black, and the man in black clothes standing in front of her tombstone in her previous life appeared in her mind again.

It seems, too similar.

On the roof, two dark figures leaned against the eaves.

"Why did the prince come here in person? And he personally rescued the craftsman!!"

"If I hadn't come, would you have just watched them get discovered?"

"That's right! Didn't the prince always order that as long as it doesn't endanger Miss Yunshu's life, don't interfere with the rest?"

"You're stupid! My brother wants to punish that skilled craftsman. If she's found out about saving him, it would be treason! Have you ever imagined how serious that is?"

"Anyway, no matter how serious the situation is, the prince will help her." The secret guard Ying Feng muttered, and was hit on the forehead by Xu Jinghuai, grimacing in pain.

"You are the one who talks the most!" Xu Jinghuai looked through the cracks in the tiles at Yan Yunshu who was busy taking care of the craftsman, and felt a little uncomfortable.

Ying Feng directly spoke out his inner thoughts, "Ms. Yun Shu is the daughter of the Prime Minister. She knew that this person was powerful, but she still risked her life to rescue him. I don't know what her purpose was. Could it be the former Prime Minister..."

"oops!"

Yingfeng was hit by another hammer.

"Indeed, how could the daughter of the Prime Minister's family be involved with a common craftsman? This must be related to the strange incident that happened in the Plum Forest Courtyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion today."

"Ah."

Xu Jinghuai felt relieved, but not completely.

Although he knew that Yan Yunshu must have had a reason for saving this man, he still didn't want Yunshu to get close to any man. He felt like he was about to explode.

Over the years, he had clearly made up his mind to hate her and never get close to her again.

But now, as long as she waved to him, he would not be able to refuse her no matter what.

Even if this place is a sea of fire and a mountain of swords, he will come here!

"Your Majesty, since you care so much about Miss Yunshu, why don't you go and ask her the reason yourself? Why are you guessing here?"

"When did I start guessing?"

"Your Majesty's facial expressions are very rich! It's hard for me not to see them clearly."

"Uh..." Xu Jinghuai's face turned pale.

"Does the prince like Miss Yunshu?"

"No."

"Then why do you keep asking your subordinates to inquire about Miss Yunshu's affairs, and keep an eye on her and report her affairs to you?"

"We grew up together, you know the bond of childhood."

"Didn't the prince also grow up with Miss Yan Shuyao? Why haven't I seen him..."

"Shadow!!! Wind!!! Is it so hard to shut up????"

Ying Feng quickly shut up. It was not difficult to shut up, but when the prince met Miss Yun Shu, he was hypocritical, saying one thing and thinking another, contrary to his cold and aloof demeanor. It was really difficult to shut up.

"Why hasn't your Highness returned home yet? It would be nice if I had my subordinates here."

"Shut up!"

Here, Yan Yunshu saw that the craftsman was no longer seriously injured, and then she returned to her own courtyard with peace of mind. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that when she pushed the door open, a dark shadow passed by again.

He looked around carefully and didn't see anything unusual. He thought it must be another secret guard from Prince Huai's Mansion passing by. He smiled and returned to the room.

The room was warm, the candlelight flickered, the silver charcoal hissed, and Xiaohong and Xiaolu had fallen asleep on the table covered with melon seed shells. There was steam behind the screen, and the bath water had already been prepared.

Yan Yunshu did not wake them up, but took off her clothes and started taking a bath.

It wasn't that she wanted to repay evil with kindness by being so kind to Xiaohong and Xiaolu, but she kept them around so that, on the one hand, she could find out about many affairs in the mansion, and, on the other hand, the more hope she gave them, the better knives they would become to stab Aunt Zhu.
