Fighting against the Prince's Mansion.

Xiao Lijing took out the secret report from the capital, frowned, and looked at Murong Shuning who had returned exhausted.

There was unrest on the border, and Murong Shuning had just gone to suppress it, but unexpectedly he was recalled to the capital by the emperor halfway.

She looked at Xiao Lijing with burning eyes, and said sincerely, "Your Highness, the border is in such chaos right now that I came here specially to invite you!"

Xiao Lijing looked over indifferently, "This world belongs to the emperor, and has nothing to do with me. If you have any problems, you can go to His Majesty!"

Murong Shuning was unwilling to give in, his face full of grievance, "Your Majesty, a real man should stand up and defend his country. Even if the princess is ill, you can't..."

"Shut up!"

Xiao Lijing scolded coldly, "What qualifications do you have to speak about my princess?"

Murong Shuning looked up at Xiao Lijing in shock with bloodshot eyes.

There was a calculation in my mind.

On the way back, I learned that Chu Wanyu was sick and dying.

It now seems to be true.

Otherwise, Xiao Lijing wouldn't be so haggard.

Thinking of this, the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously, and she felt that there was finally a chance.

She pinched her thigh, tears welling in her eyes. "Your Highness knows that you have sacrificed so much for the country and the people over the years. Now, I will continue to protect you and am willing to help you take care of the princess... I only ask that I have a place to stay in the palace in the future!"

This is an extremely bold statement.

Xiao Lijing's face was gloomy, and he looked at the person in front of him as if he were a dead person.

How dare you dare to come to the palace! Do you believe that I will stab you to death right now?

"you……"

The cold and ruthless words completely hurt Murong Shuning.

He couldn't believe that the person who said this was the war king who fought alongside him.

She retreated repeatedly, and it took her a while to come back to her senses. Her eyes were filled with tears, "How could the prince treat me like this? I am sincere to you! If it weren't for the battlefield back then..."

"Alright! We fought side by side on the battlefield. You saved my life, and I saved yours. General, I feel deeply sorry, but..."

After thinking it over, Xiao Lijing handed over a box. "This is the trump card the old general left for me. Now I give it to you! I hope you can lead the Murong family to further success and live up to the old general's expectations!"

The wooden box is held in hand.

Murong Shuning opened it and burst into tears, "Father is so good to you!"

Xiao Lijing pondered for a moment, and at this moment Jingzhe walked in and handed him a letter.

The letter was spread out.

Xiao Lijing seemed to be thinking about something.

Ye Wenxiao was actually about to take his people away, and in such a hurry that his luggage was not even completely packed.

why?

Is there something being hidden?

Xiao Lijing didn't have time to think about it and said directly, "Come on, follow me and chase after him!"

Before he finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the palace, riding his horse towards the outside of the city.

Murong Shuning followed behind all the way, watching Xiao Lijing riding his horse and galloping all the way, tears kept falling down.

So hateful.

I have already humbled myself and begged for his mercy.

result……

She was so merciless.

The maidservant watching beside him was indignant. "Master, you shouldn't forget our friendship. Don't forget the emperor's promise to you. As long as you achieve your goal, the prince will be yours!"

Murong Shuning wiped away her tears and took out the emperor's secret letter to read it.

This was secretly sent by the emperor two days ago.

The content of the secret letter was clear: as long as she poisoned Xiao Lijing and made him lie in bed for the rest of his life, she would be granted the position of princess.

In her opinion, the two of them were childhood sweethearts.

Love is as deep as the sea.

When she received this secret letter, she was extremely conflicted and kept thinking about how to discuss with Xiao Lijing to solve this big trouble with the emperor.

Never imagined.

She turned her heart to the bright moon, but the moon only shines on the ditch.

Deep love has become a joke.

She looked in the direction Xiao Lijing left, hesitant.

The maidservant beside him added fuel to the fire, "Master, the entire Murong General's Mansion is counting on you. If you continue to be indecisive, someone else will do it even if you don't do it! Then..."

The General's Mansion is in a difficult situation in the capital.

If this thing is done by someone else.

The General's Mansion no longer has a foothold in the capital.

In the blink of an eye, Murong Shuning made a decision. "Okay, since it was Your Highness who broke his promise first, don't blame me for being cruel!"

She looked at the swift horse beside her, jumped on it, and said solemnly, "Okay, everyone, follow us and protect the prince!"

The whip brushed against the horse's back.

The ears shot out like an arrow.

The maid saw this and raised her lips, glancing meaningfully at the side. "Go back and report to His Majesty. We will complete the task soon."

The person in the dark nodded slightly, turned around and disappeared.

The maid looked up at the sky and said, "It's time to put an end to this!"

Xiao Lijing rode his horse and galloped all the way, while Murong Shuning followed closely behind.

When Jingzhe saw Murong Shuning and his group, he looked puzzled and asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to..."

Xiao Lijing's eyes were indifferent. "Don't worry about it. Let's hurry up and catch up with Ye Wenxiao and the others!"
