Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

Seeing Xiao Xiangqing's expression, Gou An knew that Yin Weiyong was probably doomed.

He didn't ask.

"Your Highness, it's wonderful that you've come up with a solution. We shouldn't linger here any longer; shall we head back?"

Xiao Xiangqing said fiercely to Gou An, "That's right, let's go back first. That Mr. Qianlong said I'm no match for Xiao Ce, but I refuse to believe it!"

Although Gou An was full of curiosity, he knew very well that this was definitely not the place to ask about this matter.

So he drove the carriage away from there.

However, Da Lei and Xiao Ce, who had been waiting there, were no longer there.

Since it was already past midnight, the journey was smooth and unobstructed.

Gou An drove the carriage at breakneck speed, just as he turned from a main road onto a side road that was the only way to go.

Gou An watched from afar as two people stood in the middle of the path.

Seeing this, Gou An began to shake the horse bells on the carriage to remind them.

However, neither of them showed any intention of moving.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

Gou An shouted as he slowed down the carriage.

The sudden commotion made Xiao Xiangqing, who was already annoyed, peek out to see what was happening.

By the time Xiao Xiangqing peeked out, the carriage had already stopped more than ten meters away from the two of them.

"Are you looking for death! A good dog doesn't block the way, get lost!"

Gou An is now doing exactly what a loyal dog should do.

Seeing the two people standing motionless, he said to Xiao Xiangqing beside him, "Your Highness, please wait a moment... I'll go and deal with these two ignorant fools."

Xiao Xiangqing nodded: "Just chop them up if they're blind."

After saying that, he went back into the carriage and closed his eyes to rest.

This wasn't the first time they'd done something like this.

Killing an ordinary civilian is nothing out of the ordinary for them.

As he spoke, Gou An grabbed a sword he always carried with him.

"Where did this bastard come from? Can't you understand human language? Do you know who I am?"

Gou An walked forward, cursing and swearing.

The first thing I saw was Da Lei, but the second thing I saw was Xiao Ce.

He had an incredulous expression on his face.

Before he could speak, Da Lei moved like lightning, slashing Gou An across the neck with a hand blade.

Gou An didn't react at all; his body went limp.

The knife in his hand fell to the ground.

Da Lei hoisted Gou An onto his shoulder and then walked toward the carriage.

It was late at night, and the night was very dark.

Just as the two of them reached the carriage, Xiao Xiangqing's voice came from inside: "Which one of you is so blind..."

Da Lei and Xiao Ce did not answer.

Apart from the two horses in front of the carriage snorting twice, there was no other sound.

"Steward Gou, am I supposed to talk to you? Are you deaf too? Yes..."

Xiao Xiangqing impatiently pushed open the carriage door and immediately saw Gou An, who was already unconscious.

And Da Lei, who was standing to the side, immediately reached for his knife.

Da Lei, of course, wouldn't give him that chance and pounced on him with a hand strike.

Xiao Xiangqing rolled her eyes upwards and then fainted.

Everything went even more smoothly than I had imagined.

Da Lei turned to Xiao Ce and asked, "Your Highness, what's next..."

Xiao Ce asked Da Lei, "You're too fast! He didn't even see me..."

Da Lei said calmly, "How about I wake him up and do it again? Let him see you..."

Xiao Ce laughed and said, "Forget it. It's not too late to meet my eighth brother later."

Da Lei asked curiously, "Your Highness, where are we going now?"

Xiao Ce had already made up his mind and said to Da Lei, "Let's go to his residence."

Although Da Lei was somewhat surprised, he didn't say anything unnecessary.

After getting into the carriage, they drove it to Xiao Xiangqing's residence.

Since it was late at night, the entire mansion was already fast asleep.

After parking the carriage nearby, the two men carried the two people into Xiao Xiangqing's residence.

Xiao Xiangqing's residence was located at the deepest part of the mansion, where two guards were dozing off.

Da Lei effortlessly knocked the two of them unconscious.

They separated the two people and tied them up in two different rooms.

Xiao Ce said to Da Lei, "I'll deal with Xiao Xiangqing, you go interrogate the steward."

Da Lei nodded.

He very considerately tied Xiao Xiangqing tightly to a chair.

Then, turning to Xiao Ce, he said, "Your Highness, if you want him to wake up, you can just whip him. If you find it too tiring, I can do it for you..."

Xiao Ce smiled and said, "You don't need to do that."

Da Lei bowed and went to the next room.

Looking at Xiao Xiangqing's somewhat mixed-race face, Xiao Ce realized he didn't really know much about her.

Xiao Xiangqing had been very low-key before. If Nie Bing hadn't said that Xiao Xiangqing would kill him, he would have been in trouble.

He still didn't know much about this person.

Even the original owner's memories contained very little knowledge about this eighth prince.

Just as he leaned close to examine Xiao Xiangqing's face.

Xiao Xiangqing woke up groggily.

Xiao Ce thought to himself, "This guy really woke up at the right time."

He wasn't in a hurry; there were still two hours until dawn.

He hadn't learned the methods of the Xie Zhi, so he didn't have many tricks up his sleeve to deal with people.

If we just beat him, we could beat him to death in half an hour!

Xiao Xiangqing woke up in a daze, somewhat confused, and tried hard to recall what had happened.

As he looked around, the surroundings seemed very familiar to him.

That's where he lives.

However, Xiao Ce, who should never have been here, appeared in front of him at this moment.

He tried to rub his eyes, but found that his body was under his control.

He shook his head vigorously, but Xiao Ce was sitting in front of him with a harmless smile on his face, carrying a chair.

Xiao Ce smiled slightly as he looked at his bewildered expression.

"Eighth brother, you don't seem to be awake yet! Let me help you wake up! Wake up!"

After saying that, he casually grabbed a teapot from the table and smacked him on the forehead.

With a loud bang, the teapot shattered instantly.

Blood immediately flowed down Xiao Xiangqing's forehead, and the tea mixed with the smell of blood instantly sobered him up.

She also recalled being blocked on the road and then ambushed and knocked unconscious by a burly man!

"Xiao Ce, how dare you ambush me! You piece of trash, how dare you kidnap me, are you looking for death?" Xiao Xiangqing said to Xiao Ce with a face full of anger and eyes that were about to burst.

Xiao Ce still wore a harmless smile: "Eighth Brother, you've misunderstood me! I didn't kidnap you. I saw some thieves trying to abduct you, and I, being a hero, rescued you. And instead of thanking me, you insulted me! That's not good!"

Xiao Xiangqing listened without showing any fear, but instead looked arrogant: "Stop talking nonsense! Stop pretending! I know everything about you. Even if you can make a name for yourself in the Northern Desert, you need to understand where you are! This is the capital, my territory. Even if you're a dragon, you'd better coil up and a tiger lie low!"

"You'd better know better and let me go now! Otherwise..."

Snapped!

Xiao Ce was speechless. Before he could finish speaking, he slapped him across the face.

"Is your blindness inherited from your ancestors? Can't you see the situation clearly?"
