The prince stepped on me to get to the top, I angrily flirted with the enemy's hostage

The noise on their side soon attracted the attention of the jailer.

The jailer glanced at them and said, "Miss Su, what happened?"

It seemed that the previous attack on her in the Dali Temple prison had taught them a lesson.

Su Rou waved her hand, "It's okay."

Su Rou leaned over and said, "Don't forget what you told me before. I found a person, but this can also be considered as saving him."

The old woman raised her head and looked at Su Rou with tears in her eyes, "I'll help you! But you need to create an opportunity for me."

She could see that there was a hint of cruelty in the old woman's eyes, so she was no longer worried that the old woman would suddenly change her mind and deny her promise.

Su Rou thought the old woman meant that she should create an opportunity for them to escape from prison.

But she never expected that this would be an opportunity to get close to Xie Yuan.

Su Rou asked, "How did you leave here?"

The old woman waved her hands, holding the human skin tightly in her arms, "I have my own way."

The old woman grabbed Mrs. Zhang's hand again and asked about the whereabouts of the grandchildren.

Mrs. Zhang snuggled in the old woman's arms, "Grandma... the child was snatched away by bandits while I was running for my life. My husband and I were captured, so we can only wait until we can escape before looking for him."

Su Rou felt that the old woman's life experience was indeed pitiful, but it was also through the old woman's story that she realized that the Northern Kingdom's Ministry of Justice was not that simple.

The people at the Ministry of Justice always follow the rules; they're a bunch of old-fashioned people...

Su Rou noticed...

In comparison, the talents in the Ministry of Justice are more like executioners...

Skinning a person, what kind of cruel person could come up with this?

Su Rou said, "Have you finished catching up? The last day of this month is the day for the Northern Kingdom's military examination. The Crown Prince and the Emperor will be there, and the Emperor will be accompanied by guards. But you can start with the Crown Prince. I will find a way to get him away from the crowd."

The old woman nodded. "Young lady, I would like to thank you in advance. But before that, I need your help with something. I need you to take care of my daughter-in-law."

Mrs. Zhang was alone and helpless in the capital, so Su Rou naturally wouldn't just leave Mrs. Zhang on the street so easily.

"She will follow me from now on. If you successfully capture the crown prince's head, I will help you arrange a retreat and leave the capital."

After walking out of the Dali Temple's prison, Su Rou let out a long sigh and turned to look at Mrs. Zhang.

"Don't go out for the next few days. Just stay in my yard and act like a maid. Stay away from places that attract attention."

Mrs. Zhang nodded and said, "Girl, I will listen to you."

On the way back, Mrs. Zhang looked around and lowered her voice as she leaned close to Su Rou, "Miss, is it dangerous for your mother-in-law to kill the prince?"

Su Rou said, "It's dangerous. How could a place like that not be dangerous?"

In the previous life, apart from Xie Yuan and Chang Xi, the ministers in the court also had accomplices. They supported Xie Yuan and caused the general's mansion to become like that!

The emperor was wrong, and some civil servants and military generals in the court were also wrong.

None of them could escape.

Back at the general's mansion, Su Rou took Mrs. Zhang in through the main gate.

She saw the young man in black clothes sitting in the courtyard and stopped.

"Why haven't you left yet? Are you trying to stay in our house and become a decoration?" Su Rou walked forward with her hands on her waist.

Gong Yu smiled and put down the teacup in his hand, "I didn't stay here on my own initiative, it was your mother who insisted that I stay for dinner."

Auntie?

The ladies in the backyard of the mansion rarely come to the front yard.

She looked towards the main seat, where a dignified woman was sitting. The sunlight outside the door shone on the ground, and Su's face was hidden in the shadows, showing her gentleness.

The fourth lady, Mrs. Su, was her biological mother.

Su Rou threw herself into Su's arms, "Mother, why are you here?"

Su rubbed her head and said, "You little heartless girl, you haven't come to see me these days. The general has ordered you to come and accompany me several times, but you have never appeared in front of my courtyard gate."

Su Rou is really busy these days...

Besides...it's enough for her to know that her mother is safe.

There is an unwritten rule in the north that children can no longer live in the same house with their parents after they reach the age of 15.

Su Rou said, "I've been busy lately, why did my mother come to the front?"

Su raised her eyes and glanced at Gong Yu, who was sitting at the door, with a smile on her lips. "His Royal Highness Prince Yu was originally planning to go back, but I saw him coming out of your yard, so I stopped him and invited him to have a cup of tea."

Is that right?

Why did Su Rou feel that Su's expression didn't seem like that...

Su Rou said, "The tea is finished. When will he leave?"

Su lectured her, "How can a host chase away a guest? Besides, you just left Prince Yu alone in the yard. Why do I feel like you're becoming even more rude?!"

Gong Yu's pleasant laughter came from behind, and Su Rou turned her head to look over.

Gong Yu said, "Miss Su's personality is really like General Su, and not at all like you, Madam."

Su sighed, "I have no way to teach this child a lesson..."

Su Rou had a bad feeling in her heart. It was over. She felt that Gong Yu had found a backer.

Daddy protected her, but the way Mommy looked at Gong Yu was like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law...

Gong Yu put down the teacup and said, "I've finished my tea, Madam. I should leave too."

Su Rou remained calm, winked at Gong Yu, and whispered softly, "Hurry up and go."

Su ordered someone to send Gong Yu away.

Su Rou leaned against the door frame and only felt relieved when she saw that Gong Yu had really left this time.

Then, she felt a sharp pain in her ears.

Su twisted her ear and said, "That's Prince Yu, not a servant in our house. You can vent your anger on him."

Su Rou grimaced in pain, "Prince Yu is just Prince Yu, what's so great about him? Do you have to be placed on the table as a tribute when you come here?"

Su was furious. "Nizi, although Prince Yu is a hostage, in their country, his status is second only to the emperor. At your age, it's time for you to find a husband and marry into a good family. When Prince Yu returns to the Southern Kingdom, your status will rise immediately."

Su Rou raised her eyebrows. "Didn't you want me to marry Xie Yuan before? Why are you thinking of marrying me to Gong Yu now?"

Su said, "Do you want to be the Crown Princess? The Crown Prince is the future Emperor. If you go into the palace and engage in intrigues with those women, you'll be sold out by the other concubines in just two days. But Prince Yu is different. He's just a prince. If you marry him, you can become his princess and help us find a marriage alliance for the Northern Kingdom."

Su Rou: “…”

Is A Niang crazy or is she crazy? !

The Northern Kingdom relied on the presence of my father to guard it and conquered the Southern Kingdom!
