He never expected that his most trusted subordinate, Cang You, would send him an inkstone laced with deadly poison. Was Cang You declaring war on him?

He had thought there was still a chance to salvage the relationship, but unexpectedly, even becoming strangers was a luxury! In the end, the two still embarked on a path of hostility.

Cang You was right. He understood him. He knew that his feelings for Mo Yu were extraordinary, but Cang You had indeed poisoned Mo Yu.

Everyone knows that after ink is poisoned, the poison mixes with the ink and then slowly seeps into the writer's body through the brush, rendering the ink meaningless.

Cang You was certain that when he realized that Mo Yu had lost its value, he would rather destroy it than let the world discover its flaws.

He's forcing him to destroy Moyu.

Destroying what you love most with your own hands! What a brilliant psychological tactic!

He sneered, took two steps back, and shattered the inkstone in the box with a palm strike.

The language of ink is no longer in this world, but its legend still lives on!

As Xia Tongsheng walked, she cursed at Min Youan, "It's just a broken inkstone. Give it to your sister, and I don't even want it. All you want to do is touch it, and you start throwing a tantrum. You've really spoiled your sister!"

As he walked and cursed, Cang Jue returned from outside and saw Xia Tongsheng muttering to herself, "What's wrong with the Princess? Is she talking to herself?"

Xia Tongsheng rubbed her face dejectedly, "It's nothing, I just got bullied by your prince! Just letting it all out!"

"It's natural that Your Highness is in a bad mood today!"

Xia Tongsheng asked in surprise, "How did you know he was in a bad mood? Didn't you just get back?"

"I heard from Wu Che that Cang You has arrived!"

Who is Cang You?

"Actually, I only met him recently; I had only heard of him before!"

The woman's gossipy nature kicked in, "Tell me about it!"

Cang Jue said somewhat awkwardly, "This is something I cannot say more about!"

"Go ahead and tell me, I promise I won't say that you told me. I'll be more careful after I find out, so I won't anger the prince!"

Since it wasn't a secret anyway, Cang Jue stopped hiding it. "Actually, I don't know much either. Cang You was originally the prince's personal bodyguard and served him for many years. Later, it seems that he had a conflict with the prince because of a woman and left the prince in anger. After he left, his subordinates took his place. As for that woman and the other subordinates, I don't know!"

Xia Tongsheng said thoughtfully, "I see! Alright, you can go now."

After Cang Jue left, Xia Tongsheng began to speculate.

She wondered to herself, who exactly was that woman? Could it be a classic love triangle? Xia Tongsheng thought that since she hadn't seen any woman with the prince, it meant that the woman had left with Cang You, which also meant that the prince had once been deeply in love with a woman.

This is big news! As a professional gossip, Xia Tongsheng was determined to find out who the woman who dumped Min Youan was when she had the chance.

That evening, Xia Tongsheng was admiring the moon in the villa when a childish voice came from behind her, "Sister-in-law!"

Xia Tongsheng turned her head, "Xiao Shili, what brings you here?"

Min Shili let go of Wen Jin's hand and threw herself into Xia Tongsheng's arms, "Li'er missed her sister-in-law!"

"You have such a sweet tongue, it really sweetens my heart!" Xia Tongsheng hugged her!

It seems I still need to have a daughter in the future, my little darling!

The little girl looked around for a while, then said mischievously, "Where's my brother? Why isn't he with you!"

"Your Highness is busy," Xia Tongsheng said curiously. "You're so smart, how could you have been kidnapped?"

The little girl pouted, spread her hands, and looked helpless. "Sigh, no matter how smart I am, I can't resist the drug!"

This comical action immediately made Xia Tongsheng laugh. "You! You could be a comedy star! Think about it, there aren't many comedians as good-looking and talented as you!"

The little girl, who had been nestled in Xia Tongsheng's arms, spotted a dark figure behind a tree and excitedly rushed over, exclaiming, "Brother!"

Min Youan was taken aback at first, clearly not expecting to meet her here. Remembering that Xiao Shili had said he was fierce that day, he deliberately concealed the coldness between his brows, picked her up in one go, and said gently, "Xiao Shili, what are you doing here?"

Xia Tongsheng shuddered – it was truly terrifying!

I thought his smile was scary enough, but his gentle tone was even scarier. I had a feeling he was up to something bad! Is this what they call a smile hiding a knife?

Min Youan noticed her reaction. "Are you scared?"

"No! How could that be!" Xia Tongsheng naturally denied it to the death. She was startled by the gentle tone. It would be really embarrassing to say it out loud!

"That's for the best; we have to adapt eventually!"

"Huh!" What the heck is this, I always have to get used to it? Is this some kind of flirting game?

Damn it, the infamous God of War and homosexual is flirting with girls! This is absolutely unbearable!

But the person involved looked completely calm and showed no sign of having any wicked thoughts. Xia Tongsheng suddenly realized that it was her own thoughts that were dirty!

That prince is just a simple, honest man! Yes, that's the verdict!

At the Taigu Wang Baiyue Villa, "Ge Jin, do you see her? It's that woman!"

"Understood, Your Majesty. I will bring her here tonight!"

The Ancient King smiled sinisterly. He had really made a profit by exchanging a woman for what he wanted!

That night, Min Shili didn't want to sleep alone, so Xia Tongsheng carried her to bed!

In the middle of the night, Xia Tongsheng smelled a strange fragrance and lost consciousness. Before she knew it, she was taken away!

Upon hearing the commotion, Cang Jue immediately rushed to Xia Tongsheng's room. Min You'an was already there, confronting the man in black. "Put it down!"

The man changed his voice, "You'd better not come any closer, or she'll lose her life!" As he spoke, he picked up a dagger and pressed it against Xia Tongsheng's throat!

Min Youan's deep and piercing gaze struck him like a sharp sword. "If you dare to lay a finger on her, I will make you wish you were dead!"

"I don't want to die either. In that case, let me go!"

Cang Jue stood behind Min You'an, staring intently at the man in black's every move, planning to wait for the man in black to lose his composure, and then he could take the opportunity to rescue the princess!

However, it was clear that this man in black was well-trained; even under Min Youan's intense gaze, he remained composed.

Seeing that the stalemate had dragged on for too long, and fearing that something might happen to Xia Tongsheng, Min Youan made a concession, "Fine, I'll let you go! But the Princess Consort will stay!"

"Does Your Highness think I'm stupid? If I let go of the Princess, will I have any chance of survival? I'll say it one last time: back off, or I'll kill her!" As he spoke, he plunged his dagger several centimeters deeper.

Min Youan looked at Xia Tongsheng, who was drugged in the arms of the man in black, and finally let the man in black go.

Cang Jue immediately stepped forward, intending to follow him.

Min Youan called out to him, "Cang Jue, there's no need to chase after him!"

"Huh?" Cang Jue didn't understand. What did their prince mean by this?

However, when he looked down and saw the prince's fingers, he immediately understood everything.
