The war god prince climbs the wall every night, and the princess is angry

Xuanwu Gate.

The sun is high in the sky, the sky is clear and blue, and there is not a single cloud.

When Shen Qionghua and Princess Pingning left the palace, Shaoyao, who had been waiting at the door, came to greet them.

"Qionghua, my carriage is over there." Luo Xiyao pointed to a simple yet elegant carriage not far away.

Shen Qionghua followed Luo Xiyao to the front of the carriage. As soon as she opened the curtain, she was met with a pair of black eyes as deep as a cold pond.

Shen Qionghua's fingertips paused, and the scene of him pinching his own neck and questioning himself in the carriage under the cover of night suddenly appeared in his mind.

She pursed her rosy lips, hesitated for a moment, then lifted her skirt and got into the carriage, followed closely by Luo Xiyao.

After the three of them sat down, the carriage slowly drove towards the most prosperous street in the capital.

Inside the carriage.

Luo Xiyao said to Xie Nanyuan with a smug look on her face, "Cousin, I lived up to your trust and brought Qionghua out intact. You didn't see the look on Concubine Zhou's face. I really offended her badly this time."

Xie Nanyuan raised his eyebrows but remained silent.

Shen Qionghua sat up straight and thanked Luo Xiyao. Then she turned to Xie Nanyuan and asked, "Did the prince notice anything unusual and send Xiyao to find me at the Yanxi Palace?"

"Yes, cousin, why do you ask me to bring Qionghua out of the palace?" Luo Xiyao was full of confusion.

Qionghua now lives in the Yongning Marquis Mansion. Theoretically, she is also a member of the Yongning Marquis Mansion. Could it be that Concubine Zhou would make things difficult for the distant niece of her sister-in-law?

Luo Xiyao's oval face was full of curiosity.

Xie Nanyuan thought about the last time she fell into the water, and after thinking it over again and again, he felt that it would be good for her to be more cautious, so he did not avoid her.

"Miss Shen, do you know that the emperor had promised the imperial concubine to go to the Yanx Palace at this time today?" Xie Nanyuan said in a deep voice.

Shen Qionghua frowned, and a ripple appeared in her heart.

Since the emperor was going to come to the Yanx Palace at this time, why did Concubine Zhou summon Lin's mother and daughter and herself into the palace?

She thought of Xie Qian'an's strange behavior in the small garden, and her eyes widened.

"You mean..."

Xie Nanyuan nodded, a hint of disdain hidden in his tone, looking down on Xie Qian'an's methods. "My second brother has arranged for someone to lead the emperor in when he passes by the small garden."

There is no need to say the rest, Shen Qionghua also understands.

Even if nothing happened when a single man and a single woman met secretly in the palace, in the emperor's mind she already had a close relationship with Prince An, not to mention that Prince An had said those disgusting words to him at that time.

If, afterwards, Prince An made some moves and the Emperor thought that he and Prince An were in love with each other and decreed that he would give her to Prince An, could she still disobey the decree?

Shen Qionghua figured out the key and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, with the fingertips hidden under his sleeves turning white.

He secretly thought that he was too careless. This was completely different from his previous life.

In the previous life, he had a good impression of Prince An, unlike the rejection he has now. Prince Rui was also too busy to take care of state affairs due to health reasons, so Prince An could naturally sit back and relax, handling all matters properly and reducing himself to an outsider.

Now that he was being rude to Prince An, and Prince Rui was competing with him in the court, and even had a tendency to suppress him, he naturally couldn't take care of all these things, and his methods became much more brutal.

"Thank you for your help, Your Highness." Shen Qionghua said with a little gratitude, otherwise she would really be in trouble this time.

"No need to thank me. This is what I promised you: to protect you and your two children." Xie Nanyuan said calmly.

Shen Qionghua asked curiously, "Then why didn't the Emperor come to the small garden? Was that also arranged by the prince?"

Xie Nanyuan's lips curled up in mockery.

"How could this prince have the power to decide the emperor's actions? However, if a minister comes to discuss court affairs with the emperor, then going to the harem to have lunch with the imperial concubine would seem insignificant."

Shen Qionghua smiled when she heard this: "Your Highness is right."

Luo Xiyao, who was standing by, was confused and didn't understand what was going on, so she asked Shen Qionghua what was going on.

Shen Qionghua glanced at Xie Nanyuan and saw that he had no intention of stopping her. Thinking that she and Princess Pingning were on the same ship as King Rui, she told her the whole story of what happened today.

Luo Xiyao's face was filled with rage after hearing this. She angrily said, "I've always said that Prince An is not a good person. As a dignified prince, he doesn't want to rely on his own abilities to make achievements in the court. Instead, he sets his eyes on the money that others have worked hard to accumulate. He wants to get something for nothing and win people's hearts with the money he has robbed. It's really shameful."

"And Anle, she acted like that at the lotus viewing banquet last time. She definitely knew what was going on. I knew she wasn't a good person. No wonder I've always disliked her all these years."

Luo Xiyao's chest heaved with anger. "They only dare to bully the weak. If they have the guts, come at me. I'm not afraid of them!"

Shen Qionghua couldn't help but cough lightly when she heard Luo Xiyao's last words. Looking at her cheeks that were particularly red due to anger, she hesitated for a moment and said, "Xiyao, they have already attacked you."

Luo Xiyao's eyes widened: "What did you say?"

Shen Qionghua then told her the truth about the last time she fell into the water.

"You also know the relationship between the prince and Prince An. Gao Lei is actually secretly Prince An's man. He wants to marry you to enter the Zhenguogong Mansion. If he wants to do something to frame the Zhenguogong Mansion, wouldn't it be easy?"

Luo Xiyao was horrified. She had always thought that Anle was deliberately going against her at the last lotus viewing banquet and wanted to make her fall into the water to see her make a fool of herself.

Gao Lei just happened to meet him and was attracted by the power of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and wanted to ruin his innocence.

I really didn't expect that these people were actually in the same group!

"How dare they be so bold! No, I'm going to find them!"

She was so angry that she completely forgot that she was in a carriage. She stood up suddenly, only to hear a loud "bang" and fall back. Tears welled up in her eyes due to the pain.

The corners of Xie Nanyuan's lips twitched, but his face remained calm, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

He had already known this for a long time, so hearing it again did not cause any disturbance in his mind.

Besides, he had already made all the arrangements. Although he couldn't move Xie Qian'an now, he could still break his arm.

Luo Xiyao felt extremely aggrieved when she saw Xie Nanyuan's cold attitude.

However, Shen Qionghua couldn't bear it. After all, Luo Xiyao was just an adult, and she knew that she was afraid, so she comforted her.

It took a long time for Luo Xiyao to calm down, but she was still a little scared.

It was almost there, just a little bit, and his life would be ruined, and the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion would be implicated.

Seeing that Luo Xiyao had calmed down and he had finished what he wanted to say to Shen Qionghua, Xie Nanyuan got off the carriage.

The carriage paused for a moment at an inconspicuous corner before continuing towards the most prosperous street in the capital.
