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

Su Rou leaned on the armrest and yawned boredly.

And those people who had gathered here to watch the fun were all driven away by the Eleventh Prince.

Because Shang Jiu lost.

What they competed in was archery skills, not strength.

She was able to hit the bull's eye with four arrows, and Shang Jiu was also able to hit the bull's eye, but one arrow flew out, and not even one of the four arrows hit the bull's eye.

As the commander of the Royal Guards, he lost to a woman. I think this matter will be spread all over the place before dark today.

That guy felt ashamed and must have run back to ask Yuan Wen for comfort.

"Master? Master!"

The Eleventh Prince called Su Rou twice before she came to her senses.

Su Rou said, "What's wrong? I was distracted just now."

The Eleventh Prince was taller than her, but now, such a large man was half-crouching on the ground like a child to accommodate her height...

"Master, are you thinking about Master Shang?"

Su Rou lowered her crossed legs and said, "Well, because I felt that I had a competition with him today, and it seemed like I had done something incredible for someone."

After all, this is the palace, and nothing can be hidden from the ears of the old man from the South.

Since Shang Jiu lost to a woman, the old man should reconsider whether to take action against the Gong family, right?

It is true that Gong Yuanzhi is old, but there is still Gong Yu.

The eleventh prince personally escorted her out of the palace, and the person sent by Gong Yu to pick her up was Huang Liao.

Huang Liao treated her respectfully, "Your Highness, I have been ordered to come and pick up my daughter."

The eleventh prince was followed by attendants, and she looked at Huang Liao.

"Although I knew Master was General Gong's man the first time I met him, could I ask, Master, what is your relationship with General Gong?"

Su Rou looked at the innocent Eleventh Prince in front of her and said, "Gong Yu and I... have an indescribable relationship."

The Eleventh Prince looked as if he understood, "Is that so..."

On the way back in the carriage, Huang Liao said to Su Rou inside, "Miss, I've heard that the Eleventh Prince has always been a weak character. He seems to be very interested in you and the general's affairs today."

Su Rou's voice was muffled. She took off her mask and said, "The Eleventh Prince is not as simple as he appears. We must be careful from now on. But since I have become his master, he will not pose a threat to us."

If the Eleventh Prince really had a weak character, he would not have agreed to let her compete with Shang Jiu today.

The training ground is located in a remote area. How could Shang Jiu just happen to appear there?

The Eleventh Prince secretly investigated her.

If she thought about it carefully, Su Rou felt that everything that happened today could be explained.

The Eleventh Prince was trying to recruit talented people, so he took her as his teacher and asked Shang Jiu to compete with her, just to test her strength...

no……

On the surface, she should be Gong Yu's person, right? How dare the Eleventh Prince steal Gong Yu's person?

Su Rou was speechless. When she returned home, Gong Yu was not there.

Su Rou was puzzled. "How could he leave the house when he was injured?"

Huang Liao said, "Young lady, why don't you wait in the main hall? The general should be back soon."

Su Rou sat down on the armchair, crossed her legs, leaned back, tilted her neck to look at the ceiling, and leaned her whole body against the back of the chair.

"I don't think you'd be so bold as to break into the General's Mansion and attack the injured Young General Gong, right? Hmm, Lord Shen?"

Huang Liao followed Su Rou's gaze and saw a person hanging upside down on the ceiling of the main hall.

Huang Liao seemed frightened, "Soldier! There are intruders in the general's mansion."

Shen Yao jumped down from above and said, "When you attacked our Shen Mansion at night earlier, it doesn't mean you were going anywhere."

Su Rou said, "That's different. My master is from the Gong family after all. Why do General Gong and Junior General Gong need a reason to do things? Just treat it as an order from His Majesty."

Shen Yao said, "What a big tone."

Su Rou crossed her arms and asked, "So you're here to cause trouble?"

Shen Yao's gaze fell on her slender ankles. "Yes, but I didn't tell Your Majesty that the people who attacked me that day were from the Gong family. Shouldn't you thank me?"

Su Rou stepped back to create some distance between herself and Shen Yao. Huang Liao stood in front of Su Rou and blocked Shen Yao's punch.

Huang Liao said, "Sir Shen, what are you talking about? We didn't go to the Shen Mansion to attack you that day."

They all wore masks that day, so as long as they refused to admit it, Shen Yao would have no choice.

Shen Yao said, "It doesn't matter if you don't admit it."

Shen Yao knocked Huang Liao, who was taller than him, away and rushed towards Su Rou again.

Is she his target?

It's strange, she didn't hit Shen Yao very hard that day...

What is he doing!

Where does such a huge hatred come from?

Compared to this, Su Rou was not curious about why he attacked her, but was more curious about how Shen Yao, who was not good at close combat, could actually defeat Huang Liao?

The soldiers from the General's Mansion quickly gathered.

Su Rou asked, "Are you alone? Didn't you bring anyone else?"

Shen Yao said, "I'm here alone, it's enough to teach you a lesson."

Hey……

What a loud tone.

Huang Liao got up from the ground and said, "Miss, something bad has happened. The general is not at home. Only the lady is here..."

Su Rou said, "If you can still move, get up and fetch Gong Yu's spear. I need a weapon that suits me. You don't have to worry about this place. Close the door and go protect the lady. Don't let anyone find out that we're attacking an imperial official."

Shen Yao had a blank expression on his face. He always had this blank expression on his face, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

Su Rou felt that Shen Yao was easier to get along with when they were in the Northern Kingdom.

Huang Liao took Gong Yu's spear, and the two of them were already bleeding from the fight.

To be precise, Shen Yao was beaten so hard that his nose bled.

Even the hem of Su Rou's skirt was not stained with a speck of dust.

what happened……

Although he had never fought with Shen Yao before, he could clearly feel that Shen Yao's ability was stronger than before. He must have deliberately trained his body.

He had also fought with Miss Su. How could Miss Su be so powerful?

Su Rou took the spear from Huang Liao.

This should be enough. Using the Gong family's marksmanship will prevent Shen Yao from getting suspicious.

Shen Yao came here suddenly today, and Su Rou was really afraid that he had discovered her identity and came here to confirm it.

"It's kind of funny that someone who's good at archery would actually give up archery."

Shen Yao said, "I didn't give up. It was just for one person. I had to be able to protect her."

Su Rou then realized that he had come to seek revenge on the Gong family in order to fake Su Rou.

That’s not right either…

The person who was beaten the worst that day was only Shen Yao. She brought Gong Yu back, and the fake Su Rou protected Shen Yao.

Su Rou clenched her spear. "Um... has Lord Shen ever considered retiring to his hometown? Marrying Miss Su and living a good life together?"

Shen Yao replied, "No."

Su Rou said, "Is that so... Huang Liao will prepare the carriage. I'll trouble you to take Lord Shen to the palace to look for the Eleventh Prince."

"Why are all the soldiers gathered outside?"

When Huang Liao walked to the door, he ran into Gong Yuanzhi who had just returned from outside.

Huang Liao was about to explain when he saw Gong Yuanzhi's shocked expression.

If they had any doubts before about the authenticity of Su Rou, who had a scar on her face, now, they no longer had any doubts.

The Su Rou in front of him was just like the one who learned the Gong family's spear technique, which she had only seen once, in front of everyone.

Today, he used the Gong family's spear skills to break one of Shen Yao's arms.

Su Rou leaned down and said, "Go back and tell Su Rou that you want to retire and return to your hometown to be an ordinary citizen."

If Fake Su Rou wants to marry him, Shen Yao's official position in the Southern Kingdom will have to be terminated.

The Su family now has no backing, no status, and no power.

She is the only daughter in the Su family, and her son-in-law is an official. She wants the Su family to live an ordinary life, but nothing has changed.

Su Rou turned around and said, "Why are you still here? Didn't I tell you to prepare the carriage?"

Huang Liao said, "The general is back. I forgot about him for a moment. Miss, I'll go right away."

Su Rou sighed and handed him over to the Eleventh Prince, who knew what to do.

Gong Yuanzhi said, "Your strength is much stronger than before, and your spear skills are quite good. Did Yu'er teach you secretly?"

Su Rou handed the spear to Gong Yuanzhi, "No, I'm just a weak woman who can't take care of myself. This is too heavy for me to carry. General Gong, please help me return it."
