Transmigrated into a cunning princess, she sets her sights on a celibate royal uncle.

"Do you know how many wings we've lost in the court during the Prince's absence?"

If he doesn't go back soon, I'm afraid the entire Great Yu court will become Xie Jiayun's personal fiefdom!

The Beijing Film Academy's tone was both anxious and annoyed!

Jiang Xi knew, of course, that Huo Jingxuan harbored resentment towards her, and she also knew that Huo Jingxuan had been invited to a banquet by the prefect, which was why she dared to question him.

But so what!

"Who gave you permission to assist the Crown Prince in ascending the throne? If my elder brother were sitting in that position now, I would be more eager than any of you to see him return home!"

Jiang Xi raised her head, looked directly into Bei Ying's eyes, and said confidently.

Bei Ying frowned: "Whoever sits in that position, they're all surnamed Jiang, aren't they? What's the difference?"

"what!"

Jiang Xi sneered.

"If my elder brother were sitting in that seat, would you dare speak to me like that? Are they the same? Ask yourself honestly, are they the same?"

Bei Ying fell silent, only staring at Jiang Xi with a strange look: "So, you never intended to persuade the Prince to return to the capital?"

"I'm not stupid. If I wait for him to go back and the poison is cured, won't that mean my death?"

As Jiang Xi spoke, she pulled Chun Tao away.

The Beijing Film Academy student reached out to stop them: "Where are you going?"

"Huo Jingxuan has already returned it to you. If you try to stop me, don't blame me for having him kill you all. Anyway, he only listens to me now!"

Jiang Xi threatened without any fear.

Bei Ying paused for a moment, realizing that what Jiang Xi said was true.

The prince now wholeheartedly regards Jiang Xi as his princess, while the divine physician Shang has more important matters to attend to in the capital.

This poison can't be cured in a short time, as long as she says a few words to the prince.

I might actually be killed by the prince as a traitor!

Therefore, Beijing Film Academy only hesitated for a moment before withdrawing her hand.

Jiang Xi, accompanied by Chun Tao, walked out of the hall with an air of nonchalance.

In the courtyard, the steward of the prefectural governor's mansion was directing his servants to move some potted flowers.

Turning his head, he saw Jiang Xi coming out and bowed with a beaming smile: "Your Highness!"

"Prepare two fast horses and some travel expenses for me!" Jiang Xi ordered the steward.

"The princess is leaving? Aren't you going to wait for the prince to return?" the steward asked, looking puzzled.

"Don't wait, go quickly!" Jiang Xi emphasized.

The butler hurriedly and respectfully withdrew.

Before long, the horses and travel expenses that Jiang Xi had requested were ready.

"Princess, where else can we go?" Chuntao asked with a worried expression.

Jiang Xi took a deep breath and said, "I haven't decided yet, but we have to leave first, otherwise we'll be finished once Huo Jingxuan's memories return!"

"Aren't we going back to the palace?" Chun Tao asked, unwilling to give up.

"Now that the eldest prince has ascended the throne, the palace may not be able to accommodate us. Let's find a place to settle down first."

Then I'll try to contact my brother's former subordinates. By the way, have you heard my brother mention the Cold Crow Order? Do you know where it is?"

As Jiang Xi explained her plans, she inquired about the whereabouts of the Cold Crow Token.

Even someone as powerful as Huo Xidong wanted to obtain the Cold Crow Token, so the Cold Crow Token must be quite useful.

If I can find it, it might be able to help me in the future.

“His Highness the Third Prince never says these things in front of me…” Chun Tao replied with her head down.

Just then, the steward returned and reported, "The horses are ready and right at the door!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xi grabbed Chun Tao and headed outside.

Outside the mansion gate, a groom was waiting with two black horses in tow.

Jiang Xi first helped Chun Tao onto the horse, then mounted herself, and the steward handed her a small bundle.

Inside was the travel money prepared for her as Jiang Xi had instructed.

"Is the Princess really not going to wait for the Prince anymore?" the steward asked, still worried.

Jiang Xi said, "I'm not waiting anymore. I've already explained things to the people at Beijing Film Academy!"

Then he pulled on the reins and shouted, "Giddy up!"

The horse then galloped off towards the city gate, and Chun Tao quickly followed.

The journey was smooth and unimpeded. After leaving the city, Jiang Xi headed straight for the small wooden house she had previously rented.

Since the lease term was one year, the key had not yet been returned. Jiang Xi dismounted and went to the door.

They discovered that the silk cloth with the character "dream" written on it and hung on the door had been taken away.

An idea popped into Jiang Xi's mind, and she quickly stepped forward, took out her key, unlocked the door, and pushed it open to enter.

In the courtyard, Lu Ye, dressed in black and looking travel-worn, instinctively wanted to hide when he heard the sound.

"General Lu!"

Jiang Xi exclaimed in surprise.

Lu Ye looked closely and realized it really was Jiang Xi. He rushed forward and knelt down, saying, "Your Highness!"

At this moment, Chuntao also came in.

Lu Ye's gaze fell on Chun Tao's face behind Jiang Xi: "Have you found the person the princess is looking for?"

Jiang Xi nodded: "Mm!"

As he spoke, he glanced at the sky again. It was already late, dusk was falling, and it was about to get dark.

"Let's not talk about this anymore, let's go, otherwise Huo Jingxuan will definitely come after us if he finds out I ran away!"

Lu Ye naturally followed Jiang Xi's arrangements, so the three of them quickly set off again.

Huo Jingxuan learned the news in the middle of the night.

He returned from the restaurant, intending to go back to his room to find Jiang Xi, but instead encountered Bei Ying waiting at the door.

"What are you doing here? Where is my wife?"

Huo Jingxuan disliked Bei Ying because of Jiang Xi's words, and he became even more dissatisfied when he saw Bei Ying standing outside his wife's door.

Bei Ying boldly stepped forward and helped Huo Jingxuan, who had drunk some wine and whose steps were slightly unsteady.

"Your Highness, she is not your wife, she...she has been lying to you all along!"

"Nonsense!"

Huo Jingxuan shoved Bei Ying aside, then, as if remembering something, grabbed his collar and pulled him in front of him.

"Tell me honestly, did you lay a hand on my wife?"

"Your subordinate dares not!" Bei Ying quickly clasped his hands in apology.

Huo Jingxuan figured he didn't have the guts, so he threw him aside and pushed the door open to enter himself.

"Madam, your husband is back!"

Huo Jingxuan adjusted his posture and pushed open the door.

The room was dark, with no lights on, and there was not a sound from anyone.

Huo Jingxuan's tender expression froze instantly. Bei Ying silently lit an oil lamp for him, allowing him to see the empty room clearly.

"Your Highness, she is the seventh princess of the current dynasty, not your wife as she claims."

If you don't believe me, just send someone to inquire and you'll find out.

The divine physician said that she gave you a poison called "Drunken Illness," which would cause you to lose your memory.

She used this opportunity to deceive you, all to get you to find Chuntao for her!

Bei Ying, holding an oil lamp, stood beside Huo Jingxuan and said with a look of utter disapproval.

The dim light illuminated Huo Jingxuan's cold profile, and even though he didn't say a word, Bei Ying could feel the anger emanating from him.

But as the prince's deputy general, he still had to say it.

"Her elder brother was burned to death by you in the Imperial Study. Her approach to you is most likely to be to avenge her elder brother."

As soon as Chuntao was found, she dared not return to the capital with you, so she immediately fled with her people!
