The two of them hugged each other and cried loudly.

The maids around were all stunned where they were, not knowing how to comfort her. Their eyes were red as they watched the scene.

And it further raised Murong Huan's status.

So what if she is not a princess?

She has a younger sister, Princess Anle, and Princess Zhaohua shows up to protect her. How can an ordinary woman compare to this?

.........

Return to the princess's mansion.

Zhong Ning went to the side yard and saw a man who had just been brought down the mountain.

That’s right, it’s Li Yuanche.

After entering the courtyard, the two assassins saluted Zhong Ning. Zhong Ning nodded slightly and then walked into the room. Li Yuanche had already woken up at this time. He was tied to a stool and looked at Zhong Ning with a smile.

"You are worthy of being Princess Zhaohua. You actually discovered my whereabouts a long time ago..." Li Yuanche said lightly, as if he had expected it.

Zhong Ning was so positive that he sat on a stool beside him, poured himself a cup of tea, and then said:

"Nothing compares to the Second Prince of Xirong, who, despite being seriously injured, was still able to reach Mount Futu and deliberately collapsed not far from Princess Anle, playing the role of a seriously injured amnesiac..."

"That little sister of mine was just too foolish. She thought she had saved a perfect husband, never realizing she was the fish."

Li Yuanche sneered when he heard this:

"Princess Zhaohua is so resentful. I haven't blamed you, Dayong, for playing a trick... using a fake princess to fool me. I was just taking advantage of the situation to win her heart and do the opposite..."

At this point, Li Yuanche looked at Zhong Ning again and sneered, "What? Do you think I can't escape my brother's pursuit, so you let the real princess and the fake princess return to their respective places?"

"Emperor Yong is truly cruel. If she's useful, he'll make her a princess, and if she's useless, he'll throw her out of the city, under the pretext of praying for the country..."

"Oh, it's not that I'm heartless. It's obviously you people from Dayong who were the first to be ruthless!"

"Tsk tsk..." Zhong Ning tutted twice before speaking, "I thought Prince Che was truly indifferent, but it turns out he's also speaking up for my silly sister?"

"What? You failed to set your heart on fire, but ended up losing yourself instead?"

Zhong Ning's half-smile made Li Yuanche instantly angry.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I just said a few more words because I saw that woman was too gullible."

"Although she was truly foolish, she did save my life..."

Li Yuanche forced himself to explain. He would never admit that he fell deeply in love with Murong Lan even though he knew that she was a fake princess and that he wanted to take revenge on her.

"Yes, yes, yes... The little prince of Xirong is absolutely right... You are not in love with Murong Lan, you are just taking revenge on her... right?"

"You..." Li Yuanche felt a pain in his heart when Zhong Ning blocked his way, and he couldn't say anything to refute.

How could he explain that he had been feeling uneasy for the past two days because that stupid woman had suddenly gone down the mountain and disappeared?

Now...that's not right, how did Princess Zhaohua know that he was in Mount Futu?

Could it be that the woman discovered that he was pretending to have amnesia and betrayed him?

Li Yuanche looked at Zhong Ning suspiciously, his eyes revealing something. Zhong Ning replied coldly, "What's with that look in your eyes? Do you think you've been betrayed, and that's why I captured you?"

"Isn't it?" Li Yuanche stared at Zhong Ning.

Zhong Ning sneered and replied:

"Little Prince, you may have underestimated how much I value you... Ever since you left Dayong, I've been sending people to secretly follow you along the way..."

"I know you were being hunted, I know you had no choice but to sneak back to Dayong, I know you were playing the amnesia game on Mount Futu..."

"I know how you can win over a little girl..."

Li Yuanche's old face flushed, and he forced himself to explain:

"You knew it all along, but you didn't do anything?"

"I've escaped death so many times, but you never saved me..."

"You watched helplessly as that foolish woman fell into my trap..."

"Murong Ning, you are truly heartless!"

Li Yuanche roared this sentence in an accusing manner, and Zhong Ning's eyes instantly turned cold.

"Li Yuanche, you really have a thick skin."

"Have you forgotten that you are the prince of Xirong and the enemy of Dayong? You have led troops many times to plunder the border of Dayong and harm the people of Dayong..."

"Have you forgotten that my Great Yong still has soldiers on the front lines confronting your Western Rong army..."

"Have you forgotten that, because you said you liked my Princess Dayong, you forced my father to send his only daughter to marry to your Xirong?"

"Have you forgotten that the source of all this is because of you!"

"Li Yuanche, how dare you question me? Who gave you the courage?" Zhong Ning was so angry that she slapped him in the face with her internal force from a distance.

Li Yuanche's face instantly became red and swollen, and blood was flowing from his mouth.

He chuckled for a moment, then spat out the bloody teeth in his mouth...

Then he looked at Zhong Ning and said, "As Princess Zhaohua said, the root of all this is because of me. But if it weren't for me, how could a fake princess like you be brought back to the palace?"

"Do you think I will be grateful to you?" Zhong Ning's eyes were indifferent and his voice was cold:

"If I hadn't entered the palace, I might have been wandering around the world, eating all the delicious food in the world, seeing all the handsome men in the world... I would be free and unrestrained..."

"If I'm not a princess, I wouldn't have to worry so much about what's fair or unfair!"

"As for what you said, why did I remain indifferent even though I knew you were seducing my sister on Mount Futu?"

Zhong Ning smiled slightly and then said, "Of course it's because people only know the pain when they hit the wall... If I try to stop them, it will only backfire."

"Besides, I am watching. If you dare to attack me, I will personally destroy you..."

Li Yuanche:.......

This woman is so cold and indifferent, far inferior to his Xiaolan'er.

"If that's the case, why did you bring me back?" Li Yuanche said expressionlessly.

"Of course I'm here to help you!" Zhong Ning's eyes became much gentler, and she looked at Li Yuanche as if he were looking at a treasure in the world.

Li Yuanche shuddered inexplicably, his voice trembling slightly: "How do you want to help me?"

"I will ask my father to give you an army and let you lead it back to the Western Rong and reclaim the throne..."

"But..." Zhong Ning paused slightly, looked at Li Yuanche and smiled gently.

Li Yuanche was extremely angry, and he knew there was a but.

Zhong Ning took out a loyalty pill from his sleeve, actually from the space, and said, "I am worried that you will betray me if you take the throne, so you need to eat this... Only then can I be free from worries..."

"No... I will never..." Li Yuanche was about to refute, but saw Zhong Ning flick his fingertips and directly put the loyalty pill into his mouth.
