However, his selfishness overcame his reason.

He couldn't wait for them to come back and see what he had achieved and everything he had gained.

He is no longer the powerless and unrespected Sixth Prince, but now he is the Sixth Prince who holds great power, is deeply loved by his father, and can compete with Xiao Ziqian!

He looked at Shen Shuyi, and Shen Shuyi was also looking at him.

Tsk, I haven’t seen him for three years. It’s just as Zhao Baokun said. Xiao Tingshan is not only alive, but he has also come back to life.

Although he was still not in the best condition as when they first met at the Jade Buddha Temple, perhaps power was the best nourishment, and he looked much better now than when she left Beijing.

Xiao Tingshan was still thin, but his face had gained a lot of flesh, and his complexion was gray with a hint of redness. Although he still looked sick, he had gained some of the composure and composure of someone who had been in a high position for a long time.

It seems that during the time when she was away from the capital, Xiao Tingshan had been living a very comfortable life.

Xiao Tingshan was also shocked. She seemed to be more beautiful. Her original coldness and aloofness were replaced by majesty and peace. She was more cold and imposing than when she was by his side in the dream.

Xiao Tingshan didn't want to admit that she seemed to be more relaxed and living a better life than when she was with him. There was a kind of arrogance and domineeringness between her eyebrows that came from being loved seriously.

Xie Jingchi took a step forward and stood in front of Shen Shuyi: "Is he more handsome than my husband?"

Shen Shuyi raised her eyes to look at him and smiled: "How could that be? I just wanted to see how proud he was."

Xie Jingchi had a handsome face with red lips and white teeth. When he stopped deliberately darkening his skin to cover it up, the evil and sinister aura in him became more obvious.

But with Shen Shuyi by his side, it seemed as if something was always suppressing him, so that the murderous aura in his body actually softened.

Xie Jingchi grabbed Shen Shuyi's hand and said, "Let's go. We must go to the palace to meet His Majesty and the Queen Mother first."

"Yeah." Shen Shuyi nodded and ignored Xiao Tingshan.

But she didn't want to pay attention, but Xiao Tingshan insisted on coming forward. He stopped in front of the two of them with his men and said gently, "What a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet Lord Xie and Princess Mingzhu here."

Shen Shuyi smiled and said, "If it weren't for the coincidence Your Highness mentioned, I would have thought Your Highness came here just to show off to us."

Shen Shuyi hit the nail on the head. Xiao Tingshan was stunned for a moment when his thoughts were exposed.

After all, he hadn't had this feeling for a long time during the years she had been away from Beijing.

Xiao Tingshan smiled in relief, but as he smiled, he coughed softly. After a while, he looked at Shen Shuyi and said, "My old friend is returning to the capital, and I will come to greet him."

Shen Shuyi smiled and said, "I dare not trouble your Highness the Sixth Prince."

Both of them were in a friendly mood, as if there were no previous unpleasantness, but they knew very well that they were destined to fight to the death.

Shen Shuyi didn't want to waste any more words with him and was about to leave with Xie Jingchi, but Xiao Tingshan stopped him.

"Shen Shuyi, you shouldn't have left Beijing, and you shouldn't have gone to Liangzhou with Xie Jingchi." Xiao Tingshan spoke slowly.

"Oh? Why?" Shen Shuyi turned and looked at him.

"Xie Jingchi has been away from the capital for three years. Although he helped the Wolf King capture Black City and three other cities, these achievements will ultimately be attributed to the Wolf King."

"Until today, no matter how well you govern Liang Province, His Majesty will not recognize your achievements. As for Lord Xie, he has been away from the capital for three years, but he is still just a military inspector. How can the people of Liang Province recognize him?"

After just a few words, Xiao Tingshan could no longer suppress his desire to win.

That's right, compared to wanting Shen Shuyi to die, now he wants to see her regret it more! He begged her so much at the beginning, but she gave up on him and chose Xie Jingchi instead.

But people like Xie Jingchi, no matter how hard they try, can only be close ministers to the emperor.

He has no power and his life or death depends entirely on his father's will.

What can Shen Shuyi get by marrying him?

Xie Jingchi sneered, "Sixth Prince really worries more than Aunt Wang's mother. He not only worries about me, but also about my wife."

Xiao Tingshan looked at Xie Jingchi and narrowed his eyes.

For some reason, this man always made him feel particularly uncomfortable.

It was like that since the first time we met, and even more so now.

He didn't understand why he, a young official in the Dali Temple, felt so oppressed.

But he just wouldn't accept it. How could Shen Shuyi abandon him for a man like him?

"Thank you, sir, there's no need to be angry. The princess has been married to you for more than three years, but you haven't been able to get any official position, let alone earn an imperial decree for her. Don't you feel guilty?" Xiao Tingshan spoke slowly.

Xie Jingchi curled his thin lips, his cold phoenix eyes dark and deep: "The Sixth Prince is not dead yet, how can I be the highest official?"

Shen Shuyi held him back: "Don't waste time talking to him. Everyone has their own destiny. Let's wait and see what the Sixth Prince's fate is."

Shen Shuyi left with Xie Jingchi.

Xiao Tingshan looked at their backs and couldn't help but say, "Shuyi, I don't blame you! I know I failed you before, but I just made the choice that every man would make. Even if it were someone else, they would do the same as me!"

Shen Shuyi was so angry that she laughed. She thought that she had improved her character during these years in Liangzhou.

But she didn't expect that Xiao Tingshan could really make her want to kill someone with just three words.

"Your Highness the Sixth Prince doesn't have a mirror at home, but he should at least have urine, right? Such a big face is rare in the world." Shen Shuyi's voice was cold.

Song Ren frowned and stepped forward: "After so many years, how can the princess still be so arrogant and unreasonable!"

Jin Zhu stepped forward, holding her waist: "After all these years, you are still serving Xiao Tingshan like a dog!"

"you you you……"

"What do you mean by "you"? I haven't seen you for a few years, why are you stuttering again? Could it be that you did too many bad things and someone cut off your tongue?" Jinzhu retorted, which made Songren feel a little scared.

Xiao Tingshan ignored the two people's argument and looked at Shen Shuyi and said again: "Shuyi, why don't you understand me? I have no choice! Now I am different from what I was back then. I am highly regarded by my father and even more supported by the people. If you are willing, I can..."

Shen Shuyi sneered, Xiao Tingshan was still as despicable as ever.

What can be done?

Can I marry her?

ridiculous!

He had finally achieved everything he had today, so how could he forcefully marry a minister's wife at this moment? Wasn't he afraid of ruining his reputation and angering Emperor Qianwu?

Everything he said was just to instigate her and Xie Jingchi, just to see her regret it.

Xie Jingchi had really had enough. He had already thought of a hundred ways for him to die.

I hope he likes it.

Shen Shuyi left with Xie Jingchi. Xiao Tingshan couldn't help but say again, "Shen Shuyi! Only I understand what you want, and only I can give you everything you want!"

Before Xiao Tingshan finished speaking, Ye Lan threw a dagger out. Xiao Tingshan's secret guard reacted quickly and knocked the dagger away.

But even so, the dagger still flew past his cheek, leaving a bloody mark on his face.

Xiao Tingshan looked at the backs of the group with a gloomy look.

At this time, Tieying stepped forward and whispered, "Your Highness, we still haven't found any trace of Prince Zhao. Our people have been searching, but the clues have been cut off."
