Yixiu is reborn, fights against her elder sister, and becomes the queen mother
Chapter 317: Desire for Marriage 7
Tong Jia Suyue felt that her heartbeat had stopped at this moment. Her mouth was moving faster than her brain, and she actually asked directly:
"I don't know your name, sir. If I have the chance, I will definitely reward you handsomely."
The young man in white waved his hand. "It's just a trivial matter. Don't worry about it. This is not a place for a girl like you. Go home quickly to avoid any danger."
Xi Que gradually came back to her senses from her panic, and she nervously pulled Tong Jia Suyue's sleeve.
"Miss, let's go back quickly! If our family finds out about this, it will be the end of us."
Tong Jia Suyue lowered her eyes and felt a sense of loss in her heart, but she also knew that she should hurry home now to avoid making bigger mistakes.
When leaving, Tong Jia Suyue couldn't help but look back, wanting to take another look at the young man in white and remember his appearance.
Tong Jia Suyue went out and got on the carriage. With the coachman's shout of "Gee", the carriage drove away.
The prince originally thought that the young man should go and do his own thing, but he didn't expect that the young man would actually follow the carriage.
The prince couldn't help but frown. What on earth was this plan?
He suddenly thought that maybe the young man had taken a fancy to the girl and wanted to do something bad to her, but there were so many people here that he couldn't do it. He wanted to find out where the girl lived before doing anything bad.
The prince saw clearly when the young man used the sword just now. This kid's martial arts skills are first-rate. If he really has any bad intentions, I'm afraid that the girl will just escape from the tiger's den and fall into the wolf's den!
The prince then followed quietly, ready to rescue if necessary.
The carriage drove all the way to Tong Jia's mansion, and the prince's heart moved. Could it be that this girl was a member of Tong Jia's family?
He suddenly remembered that Longkodo wanted to marry his granddaughter to him as the Crown Princess. Could the girl today be his legitimate granddaughter?
"So you are from the Tonggiya clan. I was worried for so long in vain."
Zhou Xiuniang smiled awkwardly and shook her head. She thought this girl was just the daughter of an ordinary official.
Bayanna was a hostage of Mongolia and was deeply favored by the emperor. If an ordinary person had harmed Bayanna like that, there was no guarantee that he would take revenge in the future.
Unexpectedly, this girl has an even more important background. Tonggiya is not someone to be trifled with. Even Longkodo is someone the emperor respectfully calls his uncle!
The prince then realized that he had been a villain in vain. He couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
Zhou Xiuniang was a martial artist, so her hearing was naturally sharp. She immediately realized that someone was following her, so she suddenly drew out the sword in her hand and rushed towards the place where the prince was hiding.
"Who?"
A fierce sword energy flashed across the prince's face, and the prince took a big step back in fear.
It was a close call, I almost became the dead soul under this sword.
It's too late, but it's soon.
Two secret guards flew over from the darkness, swung their long swords, and stabbed towards Zhou Xiuniang.
The prince hurriedly stopped him, "Stop! It's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding."
The secret guards only obeyed the prince's orders. When they saw the prince ordering them to stop, they stopped attacking Zhou Xiuniang and retreated behind the prince with their long swords to protect him.
The prince quickly explained his identity. "It was all a misunderstanding. I mistakenly thought you were following this girl late at night to do something illicit, so I followed you. I didn't expect you to be so attentive. I'm so sorry for being such a villain."
Zhou Xiuniang was stunned, and when she saw who the person was, she was also shocked.
Oh my God, I almost assassinated the prince!
She quickly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "Please forgive me, Your Highness. I didn't mean it."
The prince admired her character and was not angry. Instead, he personally stepped forward and helped Zhou Xiuniang up.
"Ignorance is not a crime. You didn't even know that I was the one who followed you."
The prince's hand touched Zhou Xiuniang's hand. His voice was so gentle and his eyes were so handsome that Zhou Xiuniang instinctively withdrew her hand.
"Thank you, Your Highness. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave."
Zhou Xiuniang didn't want to have anything to do with the prince, so she wanted to leave quickly.
The prince withdrew his hand, his eyes full of admiration, "I see that you are a skilled martial artist and a brave and righteous man. Why don't you come and work for me?"
The prince didn't know why, but even though it was the first time he met this person, he felt like he had known her for a long time.
Zhou Xiuniang was a little surprised. Why would the prince want to recruit her?
Although he had some martial arts skills, they were far inferior to the secret guards around him.
The prince couldn't even tell that he was a girl, and didn't know what his identity was. How could he be so careless?
"How can a humble commoner like me be worthy of serving the Crown Prince?"
Zhou Xiuniang refused.
I have to find a way to transfer my dowry to another place, and I also have to make arrangements for the dowry and manpower I brought with me before I leave.
Not to mention the prince's identity and the situation in the court, I don't even have the time to do things for the prince right now!
The prince stared at him for a few seconds, then said with a half-smile, "I was really a bit hasty today. I'm afraid you'll think I was just acting on impulse. But it doesn't matter. I'll give you two weeks to think it over. As long as you've made up your mind, you're always welcome here."
After saying this, he took out a jade pendant from his sleeve and handed it to Zhou Xiuniang.
"As long as you've made up your mind, you can bring this jade pendant to the Eastern Palace anytime. Even if you don't intend to work under me, I won't be displeased. I'll still give you this jade pendant. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, this thing will be a token of my love. As long as it does not violate the laws of the court and does not go against the conscience of heaven and earth, I will help you."
The prince directly stuffed the jade pendant into Zhou Xiuniang's hands, leaving her no room to refuse.
Zhou Xiuniang couldn't refuse and had to accept it.
"Then I would like to thank His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for his grace."
After saying this, she wanted to stand up and kowtow to the prince, but was stopped by the prince.
"No need to be polite."
Zhou Xiuniang took the jade pendant back to her secret residence, changed her clothes and prepared to return to the Wen Mansion.
She thought it over again and again, and finally put the jade pendant in her arms.
After returning to the room, her two maids, Hongzhu and Cuimo, came forward and asked Zhou Xiuniang:
"Miss, why are you back so late today? You're two hours later than usual. Did something happen to you?"
Zhou Xiuniang did not tell the two of them about what happened tonight, because in front of the prince, she was a man.
If the truth were known to the prince, it would be hard to say whether he would be enraged and punish himself.
She made up an excuse to get away with it. The two maids knew that their young lady was a capable person, so they stopped asking questions.
