Quick Wear: Plan to Save the Unrequited Boss

But before Wen Ling could move, she was held down by Gu Muqing.

She glanced awkwardly at Shen Jingyou who was standing there. Wen Ling noticed her movements and then remembered that she had forgotten about her. The main reason was that it was very normal to show arms and legs in modern clothes, and she was unable to react for a moment.

Wen Ling looked at Shen Jingyou.

"Prince, please go out for a moment. I'll come back to you after I apply the medicine to Aqing."

Shen Jingyou felt even more aggrieved, but the lights were dim at night and Wen Ling couldn't tell that his eyes were red.

Calling him "Prince" is a polite way of saying it, and calling him "A Qing" is so intimate. It really makes me cry. What Cui Yian said about this man is so scheming.

He was just deliberately demonstrating to him, telling him that Wen Ling liked him more.

But it happened that this man saved Wen Ling tonight.

My heart ached so much that no matter how unwilling I was, I had to leave the room and make room for them.

Wen Ling and Gu Muqing, who were sitting in the room, had no idea what was going on in the boy's mind.

Wen Ling carefully applied the medicine to her skin and gave her some instructions. Before leaving, she also gave her a bottle of snow skin cream, saying that a young girl shouldn't leave scars.

Shen Jingyou, standing outside the door, was secretly wiping away tears. The young man was thin, and standing in the night, his figure seemed even thinner.

Noticing the footsteps behind him, Shen Jingyou sniffed and stood up straight.

He Shangming had not returned from the He Mansion at this time. There were no servants here, and no lights were on in the yard. The moon in the sky was not full today, as it was the first day of the year. Wen Ling could only see his rough outline, and could not see his red eyes from crying.

And at this time there was another important thing she needed to arrange.

Although almost no one could recognize Gu Muqing's identity, for the sake of safety, she could not be exposed in front of others. As for her, in the eyes of everyone, she was an arrogant and weak princess, and the fact that she had martial arts skills must not be known to the emperor and several princes.

It will arouse suspicion.

So she looked at Shen Jingyou, and his arrival did help her, so she said that it was he who brought people to rescue her in time and no one would doubt it.

The two of them entered the palace in a carriage, and Wen Ling looked at Shen Jingyou and gave him instructions.

"Remember what we just said in the carriage. It was you who brought people to save me in time."

Shen Jingyou didn't understand why Wen Ling asked him to take the credit for that man's achievement. Was it because Wen Ling didn't like that man that much? If she really liked him, why didn't she bring him into the palace and save the princess? The emperor would definitely reward him well.

Shen Jingyou felt a little shameless, and a hint of joy rose in his heart. However, this was someone else's achievement, and he really didn't want to take credit for it.

Seeing his frown, Wen Ling knew his pride. Shen Jingyou disdained to take credit for someone else's work.

Wen Ling held his hand.

"Please, I'll tell you the details after everything is over."

The little hand in his palm was warm and soft, and Shen Jingyou quietly tightened his grip.

In the imperial study, Wen Ling hugged Emperor An Chengdi's arm and began to cry in grievance.

"Father, I almost couldn't see you. Chu Heng actually sent so many people to kill me. The knife was so big, it scared me to death."

Wen Ling was crying with tears and snot all over her face. After all, she was his daughter whom he had doted on for many years, and Emperor An Cheng couldn't help but feel distressed.

"A Ling, don't cry anymore. Father will give you justice."

Shen Jingyou looked at Wen Ling's red face from crying. Although he knew that she was acting, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed. After a while, he already knew what she wanted to do.

What followed was self-loathing, and for the first time I began to doubt my 17 years of muddled life.

The Duke Zhenguo's Mansion does need a prince who has no achievements and only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, but perhaps the image of this dandy prince does not necessarily have to be true.

Duke Chu, who was summoned late at night, had a dark face, knowing that it was most likely done by his own boy.

But at this time, he had to bite the bullet and stand up to deny it.

"Princess, what evidence do you have? Don't just rely on speculation and accuse others because of the horse farm incident. My child has been quietly recuperating at home recently."

Wen Ling acted like a spoiled princess, stood up from beside Emperor An Cheng, picked up a tea bowl and was about to throw it at Duke Rui.

The old man nearby quickly stepped forward to stop him.

"No, no, Your Highness."

Emperor An Cheng also scolded, "A Ling, don't be rude."

Wen Ling then reluctantly handed the teacup to the old man, but she still snorted in anger.

"I naturally rely on evidence to speak."

Duke Rui was filled with disdain. If Chu Yuan had assassinated Princess Xuanning, he would have relied on the secret guards he had given him when he came of age. Those guards were personally trained by him and were incredibly loyal. Even if he left them alive, he didn't believe Princess Xuanning could extract anything from them.

Of course not. Wen Ling left a person alive just to find an excuse for what he would say later.

"Then please produce the evidence, Princess."

Wen Ling was dissatisfied with his arrogant attitude and hurried back to grab An Chengdi's arm.

"Father, there was a man alive at that time. I have interrogated him and found out that he is Chu Yuan."

Duke Rui took two steps forward and bowed to Emperor An Cheng, "Then bring the assassin here and confront him face to face."

Soon, two guards with swords dragged the bloody assassin into the hall.

The injuries on his body were all post-processed. The venom in his mouth had been removed, and he was given anesthesia so that he didn't have the strength to commit suicide.

Wen Ling stood up and pointed at the assassin delicately, "Father, I promised that if he could reveal the mastermind behind this, I would spare his life and set him free. He confessed everything."

The assassin's eyes widened. When did he confess? What did he confess?

Unfortunately, he had no strength left in his body and could not speak, so he could only stare.

Duke Rui chuckled, "The princess gave the assassin such a large dose of anesthetic that he couldn't even speak. Of course, whatever the princess says goes."

Wen Ling glared at him and spoke with her arms crossed.

"Humph, I naturally have a way to prove it. This secret guard has revealed everything, including that you, Duke Rui, dared to privately raise a secret guard."

The Xuan Kingdom did not allow officials in the court to train secret guards in private.

As soon as these words were spoken, Emperor An Chengdi's expression changed.

Duke Rui was also shocked.

"Your Highness, you are slandering me! I am innocent."

Duke Rui immediately knelt down, which made it seem that the princess was being unruly and was making things difficult for the old ministers in the court.

"A Ling, you can't wrongly accuse Duke Chu without evidence."

"Of course, this is the place where the assassin confessed that the Duke of Rui privately raised secret guards. Father has now sent people there to suppress them all and find out the truth."

He handed the list that he had prepared in his sleeve to Emperor An Cheng, who looked at the addresses on it without saying a word.

Wen Ling held his arm and spoke aggrievedly.

"Your Majesty, this Chu Yuan is incredibly audacious. Everyone in the capital knows that Your Majesty dotes on his son the most, yet he actually dared to assassinate him openly. This shows how daring the Duke of Rui is. He has such disregard for the royal family, who knows what he will do next time."
