Quick Transmigration Sweet Story, The White Moonlight Rescue Plan

Xiao Xiao sat on the right side of the banquet table, quietly watching Liu Shanshan and An Rongruo singing in harmony.

Seeing Xiao Xiao holding the wine but refusing to drink it, An Rongruo's originally gentle face turned somewhat ferocious.

"Little sister Xiaoxiao, is it because you don't like the wine that Shanshan brewed herself?"

As soon as An Rongruo finished speaking, Liu Shanshan chimed in, "Sister Rongruo, don't try to persuade them anymore. Some people have always lived in the countryside and are used to drinking herbal tea, so naturally they can't stand the wine I brew."

An Rongruo quickly replied, "Shanshan, it's only because you're kind-hearted that you met me! If someone doesn't drink the wine I painstakingly brewed, I'll definitely turn against them!"

Xiao Xiao fumbled for her wine glass, listening to the two men's conversation, and smiled faintly.

In a few days it will be her wedding day with Shangguan Jingtai. She was wondering why Liu Shanshan was so quiet. Turns out she was up to no good!

Today is An Rongruo's flower viewing banquet, and all the guests are celebrities from all walks of life. Even Shen An, who has been staying at home on sick leave, has come.

When Xiaoxiao saw the determined look in Shen An's eyes, she knew that things were probably not that simple.

"It seems I have no choice but to drink this wine?" Xiao Xiao smiled and looked at the two of them.

Eyes like an ancient well, frighteningly dark.

An Rongruo tugged at Liu Shanshan's sleeve guiltily, but Liu Shanshan continued calmly, "Rongruo is just afraid that my good intentions will be ruined!"

Without saying a word, Xiao Xiao downed the wine in her glass in front of the two of them, then showed the glass to them before getting up and saying she wasn't feeling well and wanted to rest somewhere else.

After Xiaoxiao left, An Rongruo and Liu Shanshan exchanged a glance. Liu Shanshan got up first to go and meet her, while An Rongruo was responsible for waiting for her to come to them.

Xiao Xiao walked slowly toward the side room where she was to rest. Before she even entered the courtyard, she was bumped into by a clumsy maid, and her whole body was covered in tea.

Xiao Xiao watched the flustered maid in front of her without showing any emotion.

"Your Highness, this servant deserves to die."

Xiao Xiao raised an eyebrow, slightly annoyed, and said, "Lian'er, go and get some clothes I've prepared." Then, glancing at the timid little maid, she said sternly, "You, take me to the side room to wait!"

The young maidservant readily agreed.

As soon as she entered the side room, Xiaoxiao smelled a pungent odor and frowned, asking, "What's that smell? It's so awful!"

The maidservant hurriedly said, "This is incense sent from the Western Regions. If the princess doesn't like it, I'll take it away for you right away!"

Xiao Xiao waved her hand and quickly told the maid to take it away.

When the maid left, she thoughtfully closed the door behind her.

After hearing the sound of the lock clicking shut, Xiao Xiao walked to the window and tried to open it, only to find it was futile.

Just as I was about to smash the vase, I heard a noise from inside the room.

"Who?"

Xiao Xiao cautiously walked into the inner room, still holding the vase she had just taken.

He was also surprised when he saw who was inside the room.

"Why are you here?"

Shangguan Jingtai, dressed in white, leaned back on a chaise lounge, with Shen An, who was already unconscious, sitting beneath him.

"Come and catch them in the act!" Shangguan Jingtai said with a mocking smile.

Seeing Shangguan Jingtai arrive, Xiao Xiao relaxed her guard and looked at Shen An beneath Shangguan Jingtai, "Your Highness, would you like to see a good show?"

Shangguan Jingtai raised an eyebrow at the calm woman. "It seems Xiaoxiao has prepared another good show for me!"

Xiao Xiao was already used to Shangguan Jingtai's sinister appearance. After all, he was the leader of an assassin organization; it would be strange if he were a good person.

"However, Your Highness, I need to do you another favor."

Meanwhile, in the west wing, Liu Shanshan successfully put the drunk Shangguan Jingde on the bed.

Looking at the face on the bed that bore a resemblance to Shangguan Jingtai, Liu Shanshan made up her mind, took off her coat, and lay down.

Although Shangguan Jingde was drunk, his consciousness was not too hazy. He felt the warm and soft body in his arms and cooperated very well.

Spring will soon be in full bloom.

As darkness gradually fell...

An Rongruo belatedly realized what was happening and led everyone to the side room to find Xiaoxiao and bring her back.

Seeing Xiao Xiao completely unharmed, An Rongruo almost lost her smile. She glanced into the inner room, seemingly casually, and said, "Xiao Xiao, it's all because my new maid is so inconsiderate and made you wait so long. I'll punish her severely! Standing must be tiring. Go sit down in the inner room!"

Xiao Xiao smiled and squinted, "No, it's getting late, I think I should head back first!"

When An Rongruo saw Xiaoxiao stopping her, she was secretly delighted. She pretended to pull Xiaoxiao along and led her into the inner room in a friendly manner: "I was just worried that you were tired after waiting for so long, so I wanted you to stay a little longer!"

As An Rongruo spoke, her eyes darted around, and when she found there was nowhere for anyone to hide, her expression stiffened slightly.

Xiao Xiao could see An Rongruo's reluctance, but she still went along with it and said, "Since Your Highness is so hospitable, then I will respectfully accept your offer!"

An Rongruo's expression changed several times, but she suppressed her anger and left the side room.

After walking a few steps, they saw the manager running towards them in a panic.

An Rongruo's brow twitched, sensing that something was about to happen, and she immediately scolded, "What kind of behavior is this, all flustered and panicked?"

The steward was clearly stunned by what he had just witnessed, and it took him a long time to recover before he said, "Your Highness, Princess, His Highness the Prince requests your presence!"

"Sixth cousin?" An Rongruo felt a little flustered when she recalled Shangguan Jingde's drunken state and Liu Shanshan's intentional or unintentional glances at him.

"What are you still standing there for? Why don't you go?"

The manager kept agreeing, stumbling and leading the way.

When the group arrived at the west wing, they saw Liu Shanshan, disheveled, and Shen An, half-naked, kneeling before Shangguan Jingde.

Shangguan Jingde was in no better shape; his clothes were disheveled, and there were several thin, long scratches on his neck, clearly made by a woman.

Looking at Liu Shanshan kneeling on the ground, her exposed skin was also covered in spots.

Anyone with eyes can see what happened.

Add to that Shen An, who wasn't in much better shape either, and it's hard to imagine what might happen.

No one in the room dared to utter a sound.

It was Shangguan Jingde who spoke first: "Since I accidentally stumbled upon your affair, and it was my fault, then I will request permission to arrange another marriage for Minister Shen!"

Liu Shanshan, who was crying with tears streaming down her face, turned deathly pale when she suddenly heard Shangguan Jingde say that.

How did things turn out like this? Everything was fine, how did Shen An end up in their bed?

Still acting the same way?

Shen An, whose face was equally gloomy, lifted his eyelids to look at Shangguan Jingde, who was pretending to be virtuous at the head of the table, and sneered before refusing, "I'm afraid I have to decline Your Highness's kind offer. My wife has just died of a serious illness and the mourning period is not yet over, so I cannot marry for the time being!"

Shangguan Jingde feigned disappointment and said, "That's a pity. It seems we can only discuss this matter again after Vice Minister Shen has finished his mourning period!"

Liu Shanshan stared in shock at the hypocritical man on the bed.

Is Shangguan Jingde planning to take everything and then deny everything?

Now that her body has been seen by others, she has no choice but to stay with him; he can forget about getting rid of her.

"Your Highness, how could you be so heartless? It was clearly you..."

Liu Shanshan cried and tugged at Shangguan Jingde's sleeve. Gone was her former gentle and virtuous demeanor; now there was only sharp sarcasm and meanness.

Shangguan Jingde irritably brushed Liu Shanshan's hand away and said coldly, "I am usually able to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, so how come I got drunk after just a few cups at Rong Ruo's residence? Well then, I would like to ask my cousin what happened!"

Upon hearing Shangguan Jingde's words and seeing the scene before her, An Rongruo immediately understood that Liu Shanshan was using her as a pawn.

An Rongruo snorted coldly and looked down at Liu Shanshan, "Since such a thing has happened in my residence, I will inform His Majesty. At that time, His Majesty will make his own decision!"

An Rongruo doesn't need to indulge anyone or care about anyone's displeasure, because she has her mother, the Princess, backing her up.

Soon, the matter reached Emperor Qixuan's ears.

Emperor Qixuan glared at the group, trembling with rage.

At this moment, Empress Shunde stood up, walked to Emperor Qixuan's side, and patted his back reassuringly. She then said coldly to the people below, "Prince Xian and Minister Shen deserve to be punished for their absurd behavior at the Princess's residence. Yong'an and Rongruo are not without fault either. Prince Xian, considering it is their first offense, will remain in his residence to reflect on their actions. Once they have realized their mistakes, he will be sent to the northwest to guard the border as a warning to others."

"And Minister Shen," Empress Shunde said, frowning as she looked at Shen An's gloomy face, "this is not your first offense. As a person and an official, you are of low character, making it truly unsuitable for you to serve. You are hereby demoted to a commoner, and will never again be allowed to pursue an official career!"

After Empress Shunde finished speaking, Shen An wanted to argue again, but then Emperor Qixuan said coldly, "Minister Shen Changmin has failed in his duty to educate his son. He is demoted nine ranks and appointed as the magistrate of Liangzhou. He must leave the capital immediately to take up his post without delay!"

Upon hearing this, Shen An collapsed to the ground like a deflated balloon and was dragged away by the guards beside him.

Shunde then looked at Liu Shanshan, who was still trembling. She had never liked such a flamboyant person, and now that she had made a mistake, she naturally had to give her a good scolding: "Yong'an, as a princess by imperial decree, not only do you not care about the people or provide relief to disaster victims, but you also spend your days thinking about how to instigate Rongruo to act recklessly with you."

Liu Shanshan repeatedly denied it: "No, I didn't, Your Majesty, please let me explain!"

Shunde raised an eyebrow and looked at Consort Xiao, who also had a gloomy expression.

This woman has been my rival for half my life, and now that I'm in her hands, she won't give up until she bleeds me dry.

"So you mean, if it wasn't your idea, whose could it be?"

As soon as Shunde finished speaking, Consort Xiao angrily said, "You scoundrel! How dare you try to argue like this in front of the palace! I bet you're a fox spirit reincarnated, but you're not used to bewitch others. Otherwise, why would my good child be bewitched by you?"

Seeing that Emperor Qixuan's expression softened somewhat, she continued, "I suppose I was also bewitched by you before I bestowed upon you the title of princess. Your Majesty, such a vixen must be eliminated!"

Emperor Qixuan waved his hand wearily and said, "Drag him away and hand him over to the Imperial Advisor!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Shanshan exclaimed in disbelief, "Your Majesty, Your Highness, I have been wronged!" Then, looking at Xiao Xiao standing to the side, she angrily pointed at Xiao Xiao and said, "It must be her! She's the one who tried to harm me!"

Emperor Qixuan slammed his fist on the table in anger: "At this point, you're still making baseless accusations! Guards! Drag him away! I'm getting annoyed just looking at him!"

In the palace's backyard, flames suddenly shot into the sky, accompanied by piercing screams, and the demon was subdued.
