Transmigrated into a vicious female supporting role, reborn as a hostage to the paranoid male protag

The ointment was cool and had a faint floral fragrance. Chu Xingchen used his index finger to scoop out some, then carefully rubbed it onto the red mark on her wrist. His fingertips were gentle, massaging bit by bit until the ointment was absorbed by her delicate white skin.

"It was you who caused the scar, and it's you who looks anxious applying the medicine... It's too late for you, brother, to pretend to be a good person..." Su Yingxue stared blankly at Chu Xingchen who was applying the medicine for him with lowered eyebrows and concerned eyes. She couldn't help but complain...

Perhaps her words made him unhappy. Chu Xingchen's eyes dimmed and his eyebrows raised. His finger technique was suddenly not so gentle, and he rubbed her with more force. Su Yingxue grimaced in pain and blamed her indirectly.

"What kind of crappy ointment is this? It hurts so much, let me go immediately..."

Su Yingxue wanted to pull her wrist back, but the man was not giving in. He held her wrist with one hand and pulled both of her hands, and she couldn't get either hand free.

"Sister, if you can't learn to speak, it's better not to speak..." Chu Xingchen glanced at her indifferently, and when he saw that she was quiet and kept silent, he became gentle again.

"Because of my sister's temper, she will definitely suffer." Chu Xingchen looked at her, continued his actions, and did not forget to add.

"By the way, sister, don't have any bad ideas and think of drugging and imprisoning my brother." Chu Xingchen seemed to be a worm in her stomach. Seeing her mumbling but silent mouth, he knew that she was unwilling to give up.

"Before you give me the medicine, don't forget who cured me of the poison?" Chu Xingchen said coldly, "Don't do the same thing again, sister, that only ends up hurting yourself."

"If there's a next time," Chu Xingchen looked up at her, his face cold and his eyes deep as the abyss. He raised a mocking smile and said coldly, "Otherwise, next time, sister, don't think it will be so easy to ask brother to let you go..."

Su Yingxue's face turned pale when she heard this.

Okay, okay, now that poor little proton has started to get ahead of her and threaten her. It's so frustrating.

Su Yingxue was depressed, and her face was even more bitter than after eating bitter melon.

"Sister," Chu Xingchen saw her sitting there dejectedly and ignoring him. He thought that his eldest princess must be feeling aggrieved, like a little child, and found it somewhat funny.

Obviously, she used to be so careless, spoiled and willful, but now she is often bullied by him and becomes silent, and suffers alone.

"Sister, didn't you say you wanted to show your sincerity to me?" Chu Xingchen thought about it and decided to change the subject. After all, he had a difficult matter at hand and needed her help.

The main reason for escaping this time was that the secret guards sent out earlier found out the past of the monk in white, but when they went to look for him to report the information, they couldn't find him.

Following the clues, he found Su Yingxue's private room. Fortunately, the guards sent by Su Yingxue were not top-notch, which gave him a chance to turn the tide.

It was also at this time that Chu Xingchen realized that his eldest princess was not as absurd and ignorant as the rumors said. Instead, she was like a little wild cat, pretending to be stupid and obedient, but actually full of cunning schemes behind the scenes.

Just like last night, Chu Xingchen underestimated his enemy and was careless, which is why he was beaten up by Su Yingxue.

At this moment, Chu Xingchen realized that it was good that she was a little clever, which was not a bad thing. After all, the palace of the Great Sheng Dynasty was also full of twists and turns and undercurrents.

She needs to be smart to protect herself.

"What's the matter? Do you need my help?" Su Yingxue was a little confused. She was just a willful and capricious person. Apart from her identity as the eldest princess, how could she help him?

What's more, now that she and Chu Xingchen are in the Qin family, he knows that the four great families and those court officials share the same hatred for the enemy. Who doesn't want to get rid of her as soon as possible, as she is the scourge that harms the country and the people? Who doesn't have a grudge against her?

How could she possibly help him?

"Sister, I have to trouble you to accompany Chu Xingchen to a place tonight." Chu Xingchen stared at Su Yingxue in front of him. The secret guard reported that the monk in white was once Su Yingxue's mother and one of Nangong Jiuyue's confidants.

The Nangong family of the previous dynasty had been a prosperous family for nine dynasties, enjoying centuries of prosperity and prosperity, with disciples and descendants scattered throughout the capital of the Great Sheng Empire. At the founding of the Great Sheng Empire, Emperor Taizu ascended the throne with the support of the Nangong family, leading to rumors that "Su and Nangong shared the throne."

Su Yingxue's mother was the legitimate daughter of Nangong Zi, the head of the ninth family of the previous dynasty. She married the late emperor and was very fond of her, which was also a national legend.

At that time, the Nangong family was even more powerful than when Dasheng was founded. There were family members in both politics and business. For a time, the Nangong family could call the shots in Dasheng and was omnipotent.

Even someone as noble as the late emperor seemed to have become an appendage of the Nangong family. A tall tree attracts the wind, and a tree that stands out in the forest is easily broken.

The once prosperous Nangong family was suddenly struck by disaster due to their involvement in the witchcraft scandal in the imperial harem and government affairs of the Great Sheng Dynasty. As a result, all the property of the nine clans was confiscated into the national treasury, all the men in the nine clans were executed, and all the women were sent to the Jiaofang Bureau or military camps to serve as prostitutes.

Except for Concubine Nangong and Princess Su Yingxue who still enjoy honor, the Nangong family no longer has the glory it once had.

After the fall of the Nangong family of the previous dynasty, the four major families ranked after it gradually rose to prominence and divided the power of the unique Nangong family, resulting in the current new family list.

Chu Xingchen looked at the naive and childish Su Yingxue in front of him. It was hard for him to imagine what kind of environment she had lived in since childhood to develop her to be so spoiled, willful, arrogant, ignorant and vicious.

But no matter what, the Qin family's nine-story pagoda is the key to his disintegration of the Qin family and even the four major families of Dasheng. Even if there is a one in ten thousand chance, he will take a gamble.

Only if the four great families in the capital of Dasheng fall apart, the internal affairs of the capital of Dasheng will be severely damaged. At that time, when he steals the national defense map of the capital of Dasheng and returns to Daqi, everything will be a new beginning.

"Where?" Su Yingxue was a little surprised when she heard this. It was so late at night and everyone else was asleep. Where was he taking her?

"Sister, change your clothes. I'll be waiting for you in the outer room." Chu Xingchen helped Su Yingxue remove the disguise on her face, then took out a nightgown that had been prepared in advance from the bag on the table and handed it to Su Yingxue.

Chu Xingchen looked at Su Yingxue with a soft and longing gaze, and said to her in a gentle and bewitching voice, "Brother, I'm taking you to visit an old friend today. Don't you want to know about what happened back then involving your mother's family, the Nangong family?"

"Sister, Xingchen will take you to find the truth of that year..." Chu Xingchen looked deeply at Su Yingxue in front of him. His intuition told him that the sudden fall of the Nangong family was not as simple as recorded in historical materials.

Perhaps Su Yingxue can break the trap set by the white-robed monk.
