Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

Upon hearing that everything might be related to Song Ruozhen again, Ling Qian'er could no longer maintain her ugly expression and said sharply:

"This woman is a menace. She ruins every single one of our plans. If we don't get rid of her, there will be endless trouble, and we'll be in great danger!"

Grand Tutor Ling and his father also had solemn expressions. They naturally knew that Song Ruozhen was a troublesome person; they had known this since the time when Master Tianji lost his life.

However, putting aside the Song family's status, ever since they returned to the capital, the Song family has been keeping an eye on them. Song Lin was determined to avenge his brothers, and even Grand Tutor Gu was watching them closely.

They dared not make any rash moves, for if they were caught red-handed, they would be doomed!

Moreover, Song Ruozhen is now married to the Prince of Chu, whose mansion is heavily guarded, as everyone knows. To try to kill someone in the Prince of Chu's mansion is tantamount to courting death!

Even when she was outside, Chu Junting had people guarding her, which meant they had no chance to make a move and could only delay the attack!

"Now that it has already happened, it's too late to talk about it anymore. We might as well think about how to deal with it."

Grand Tutor Ling looked at his father and asked, "Did the assassins you sent out kill Zhao Qian?"

Zhao Qian has done many things for them over the years, big and small, and is a true confidant. This is why they wanted to protect him even though they knew he was a key figure.

Logically speaking, no one should have noticed, but in the end, it still failed.

Even if the reason is unclear, upon careful consideration, there should be no other possibility besides Song Ruozhen.

"I just went to inquire about the situation. The person is probably gone, but the assassin has been caught," said Ling's father, relaying the news that had just been sent back.

Ling Qian'er breathed a sigh of relief. "It doesn't matter that the assassin has been caught. Anyway, he doesn't know much, and we won't be able to get anything out of him."

Ling's father nodded, "Don't worry too much. This assassin is a trained assassin we've trained. We guarantee we won't get anything out of him."

Just be careful and don't lose your composure.

At this moment, the Ling family members were finally relieved.

"Qian'er, it's getting late, you should go back now!" Ling's mother urged.

She knew that although her daughter had married Prince Che, the relationship between the two was obviously not good. Except for the day of her daughter's return visit, her daughter always came back on her own.

Of course, she also understood that Qian'er's mind had been on the King of Chu, so it was normal for the King of Che to be dissatisfied. Any man would probably feel uncomfortable in that situation.

"Now that you've married Prince Che, you should really think of a way to win his heart. You can't just stay together in a superficial way forever; problems will inevitably arise sooner or later!"

Upon hearing this, Ling Qian'er couldn't help but recall her time with Chu Tianche these past few days.

She had always thought that Chu Tianche liked her, but who would have thought that it was all a lie after she married him.

Prince Che only values ​​the power of the Ling family; he doesn't care about her at all!

“Your mother is right. Now that you’re married, you should focus your attention on your husband.”

"If the relationship isn't good, how will you get through the next few years? Our plans will be useless!" Ling's father warned.

"My daughter knows."

Ling Qian'er responded and was about to leave when she heard a servant hurriedly come to announce her arrival.

"His Highness Prince Che has arrived."

Madam Ling was overjoyed. "It seems our worries were unnecessary. Qian'er and His Highness Prince Che get along well. She was just a little late today, and His Highness Prince Che came to pick her up personally."

Ling Qian'er was not as optimistic as her mother. She guessed that Prince Che must be worried about what happened today, and that's why he came over when she didn't go back.

Ultimately, all he was worried about was his own safety!

However, she still showed a shy smile, "Mother, don't worry, I will get along well with the Prince."

After learning that Ling Qian'er was in the Ling residence, Chu Tianche's unease grew stronger.

There must be something wrong if they haven't gone home this late!

"Has Your Highness eaten yet?" Madam Ling asked with a smile.

Chu Tianche observed the expressions on the faces of the Ling family members and found that everything seemed normal. He couldn't help but wonder if he had guessed wrong.

“Mother-in-law, your son-in-law has already eaten, but since Madam has not yet returned, I came here specifically to fetch her back.”

The Ling family members all wore smiles, creating a warm and harmonious atmosphere. Ling's mother even said:

"It is indeed getting late. It's all my fault for being so busy talking to Qian'er that I forgot the time. I will definitely pay attention in the future."

Ling Qian'er walked to Chu Tianche's side, her pretty face full of tenderness, "Your Highness, let's go."

The fake smiles on their faces only disappeared once they were on the carriage.

"You haven't come back so late, has something changed?" Chu Tianche asked bluntly.

Ling Qian'er shook her head, "Don't worry, the person has been silenced, they'll be fine."

Chu Tianche's face suddenly turned cold, and he said sharply, "You still want to lie to me? I just received news from the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review that they have arrested people and taken them back!"

"They only captured the assassin, but this assassin was a trained assassin who knew nothing about the entire plan and would never leak any information!"

Ling Qian'er's face was ashen, her anger still burning. "Since you don't trust me at all, why don't you just solve it yourself? Why use the methods we came up with?"

All of this clearly benefits Chu Tianche the most!

This unexpected incident was something none of them wanted to happen. Who would have thought that Chu Tianche would keep questioning her? Naturally, she was extremely unhappy!

Seeing Ling Qian'er's anger, Chu Tianche's attitude softened a bit, and he said, "I'm not blaming you, it's just that we're both nervous about what's happened."

I was just in a hurry, I didn't mean to be mean to you, please don't be angry.

Ling Qian'er then said calmly, "Alright, the matter has been resolved, you don't need to worry."

Chu Tianche originally wanted to ask for more details, but he still felt uneasy because the people he had sent out to follow Chu Junting and the others had also disappeared.

He had a vague feeling... that the person was already dead!

Seeing Ling Qian'er's haughty and unhappy expression, he ultimately remained silent.

However, that very night, just as Chu Tianche was preparing to rest, people from the Dali Temple suddenly stormed into the Prince's Mansion.

"This is the Prince Che's residence, how dare you trespass!" the steward shouted anxiously, calling for the guards to stop him.

However, Yan Zheng, holding the token and with a domineering expression, said, "This is a token bestowed by the Emperor for the Dali Temple to handle the case. I ask Your Highness and Princess Consort to cooperate."

Chu Tianche's expression changed instantly, and he subconsciously looked at Ling Qian'er beside him, his voice filled with barely concealed anger:

"Didn't you say that once things were done, the blame would never be placed on us?!"

Ling Qian'er's eyes widened in shock, and she panicked for a moment. "Impossible, this is impossible!"

Everything had been taken care of, so why are they being investigated now?
