"Take a look in front and ask them to make way for us." Xuanchen ignored Zi Jing and instructed someone else.
Seeing that Xuanchen didn't reply, Zi Jing didn't dare to probe further. "Who's the most likely suspect for this assassination attempt?"
"All of them are suspects. Anyway, they're all the same. It doesn't matter who sent them."
Shi Sheng: "…" These words were very bold and fearless!
"Xuanchen." A lazy voice suddenly sounded from inside the carriage. It sounded displeased. "Why aren't we back yet?"
"Your Highness, the people in front are still fighting."
Shi Sheng suddenly reached out to lift the curtain. Xuanchen couldn't stop him in time and the situation inside the carriage was revealed.
The man seemed to have just sat up. His clothes were messy and his wide collar revealed his fair skin. His hair was unbound and casually draped over his back. A few strands fell in front of his body. His laziness was vividly displayed.
When the curtain was lifted, the light suddenly became stronger. The man narrowed his eyes and a hint of sadness appeared between his brows. However, he didn't lose his handsomeness.
After adjusting to the light, the man looked at the lady outside.
She had a faint smile on her face and there seemed to be ripples in her eyes. There seemed to be a flash of light in her eyes, as if she had found a fun toy.
A folding fan suddenly appeared in Yan Qiu's hand. He stretched it out from the car, lifted Shi Sheng's chin and raised it slightly. His tone was casual, no one could tell if he was happy or angry, "You're the one who betrayed me?"
Shi Sheng grasped his folding fan and looked at him. "No."
Yan Qiu frowned and released the handle of his folding fan. He looked up slightly and narrowed his eyes at Shi Sheng. "Someone who dares to betray me is very bold."
He pulled down the curtain and his lazy voice sounded from inside. "Bring her back."
Shi Sheng held his folding fan and was dumbfounded. He actually didn't listen to him?
Oh my!
That was awesome!
Shi Sheng placed one hand on his waist and opened his folding fan. After a while, he turned to Xuanchen and asked, "What's wrong with His Highness?"
Xuanchen's face turned cold. "Hongjin, don't forget your identity."
Shi Sheng waved his folding fan fiercely. "What identity? A traitor? "
A clanging sound came from inside the carriage, as if something had fallen to the bottom of the carriage.
"Xuanchen." Yan Qiu's voice sounded from inside the room. Her languid voice carried a hint of exasperation. "Return to the residence."
Shi Sheng was speechless. What was wrong with him again?
Shi Sheng grabbed the car window and said, "Your Highness, I want to talk to you about the traitor. Let me go in."
"Hongjin!" Xuan Chen bellowed. "Don't go against your superiors!"
Shi Sheng rolled his eyes. Not only did she want to offend him, but she also wanted to raise him.
Xuan Chen's face darkened. He stood between the Shi Sheng and the carriage. "Hongjin, His Highness' patience is limited. If you dare to offend him again, you'll have to bear the consequences."
He gestured to the people in front of him, and the carriage immediately moved forward. At some point, the group in front of him had started moving forward as well.
"Am I not a traitor? The consequences are already very serious. I don't care if it gets more serious. "Shi Sheng waved his folding fan nonchalantly.
Xuan Chen's heart sank. Although he was puzzled, he didn't show it on his face. "It's good that you understand. You still have a chance to atone for your sins."
Shi Sheng waved his folding fan and looked at the carriage that was gradually moving away. His lips curved into a faint smile.
It was hers. It would be hers sooner or later.
…
News of the assassination at the city gate quickly spread among the commoners. The envoys from the Xia Kingdom were the first to express their views. They had to give an explanation.
Also, the Seventh Prince had asked them to make way. Was he trying to humiliate the Xia Kingdom?
His Majesty had a headache and summoned the Seventh Prince into the palace. It was said that the Seventh Prince had thrown a huge tantrum. In the end, the Emperor sent his trusted aide to apologize to the envoys and Princess Ning Huan.
Shi Sheng and the envoys returned to the Seventh Prince's residence and were locked in a courtyard. There were people guarding outside, not allowing her to go out. They only sent her one meal a day.
Were they trying to starve her to death?
Of course, these people couldn't stop her. But she couldn't find Yanqiu either. That idiot didn't seem to spend much time in the residence. She didn't seem to be out bullying people … Wait, bullying people? Bullying people?
Shi Sheng stood up and walked out of the courtyard.
The guards outside blocked her with both hands and repeated expressionlessly, "You can't go out."
"Are there any women in the residence?" Shi Sheng took a step back and asked one of the guards.
The guard seemed to despise this question. "Of course there are."
"What I'm asking is, does the Seventh Prince have any women?"
The guard was suspicious. "Why are you asking this? Don't you know? "
Shi Sheng raised his voice. "Do you have any women?"
An invisible pressure came over. The guard subconsciously said, "His Highness hasn't taken a concubine."
"Has he slept with any women?"
"No. His Highness doesn't touch women."
No?
If he didn't have any women, then where did the women he dominated go? These people in the capital couldn't be spreading rumors blindly, right?
Just as Shi Sheng was puzzled, Zi Jing came over with a big food box and stuffed it into her hands. "Hong Jin, bring this to His Highness. He's in the West Court."
The food box was half her height. It was round and heavy enough to fit a person. Shi Sheng wasn't prepared and the food box fell to the ground. Dark red seeped out from the bottom of the box, accompanied by the strong smell of blood.
Shi Sheng: "…"
What the hell was this?
"Answer whatever His Highness asks. You know how scary it is when His Highness is angry. I don't want to collect your corpse." Zi Jing looked sympathetic. Then, his expression turned serious. "But if you're really a traitor, I won't be merciful."
After saying that, Zi Jing disappeared in a flash.
Shi Sheng stared at the lunchbox that was half the height of a person. 'Don't tell me … it's filled with human flesh?
Shi Sheng reached out and opened the lid of the food box. The smell of blood wafted out. Fortunately, it wasn't human meat. It was a pig that had been cut into pieces and placed in the food box.
"Where's the West Court?" Shi Sheng covered the food box and asked the expressionless guard beside him.
The guard's mouth twitched and he pointed in a direction.
Shi Sheng took the food box and headed to the West Court.
Xuan Chen was waiting at the entrance of the West Court. When he saw her, he opened the door and led her in.
The West Court …
It was a lake!
A f * cking crocodile!?
There was a small boat at the entrance of the West Court. Xuan Chen didn't intend to get on it. He just helped her carry the food box. "Hand over your weapons."
"I don't have any weapons."
"Your sword!" Xuan Chen emphasized.
"I don't have a sword." Shi Sheng opened his arms fearlessly. "Look at such a big sword. Where can I hide it?"
"Hand it over!"
Shi Sheng: "…" Hey, you stupid child!
Shi Sheng glanced at the pavilion in the middle of the lake. There was a curtain over there and he could only vaguely see a golden robe peeking out from behind the pillar.
Shi Sheng took out the Iron Sword from behind and stabbed it into the ground. He warned Xuan Chen, "It's best not to touch it. It has a bad temper."
Xuan Chen immediately retracted his hand and gestured for him to take the sword.
