As soon as Cang Lan came out of the palace, he saw the girl standing outside.
The girl ran over to him and asked anxiously, "Are you really going to marry that Princess Qing Guan?"
"En."
"But …" The girl stammered, not knowing what to say. She stomped her feet anxiously.
'This Qing Guan isn't Cang Lan's first wife!
But … '
'Why does the name Qing Guan sound so familiar? Where have I heard it before?'
'But where have I heard it before?'
Cang Lan walked around her and left. Seeing this, Yue Yao suppressed her doubts and chased after him.
'Looks like I'll have to do it myself.'
… …
Shi Sheng met the female lead the next night.
She had somehow knocked out the people around her and climbed in through the window in her night clothes.
Shi Sheng was sitting cross-legged on the bed in his undergarments, waiting for her to come.
Yue Yao jumped in and was met with a pair of calm eyes that didn't change at all when they saw her.
Yue Yao touched her body. 'I didn't use any invisibility skills!
What's wrong with this Princess Qing Guan?
If it were a normal person, their first reaction upon seeing a stranger enter their room would be to call for help, right? '
Yue Yao had already thought of how to stop her if she called for help, but the other party didn't react at all.
'Is she blind?'
Yue Yao tried to move, but the pair of eyes that were looking at her moved as well.
'She's not blind …'
Yue Yao felt even weirder. 'Why doesn't this person react like a normal person?'
"What are you doing here?" Shi Sheng's cold voice interrupted Yue Yao's imagination.
'I don't want to know what the female lead is thinking.
I'm just waiting for her to speak, but she's just standing there for a long time without saying a word.
'Is she here to see if I'm pretty?'
"Ah?" The female lead finally reacted and asked curiously, "You know me?"
'This body I'm using shouldn't have anything to do with this woman. How could she know me?'
"I'm asking you what you're here for," Shi Sheng repeated. His tone was a little impatient, and the aura around him became much sharper.
"I …" Yue Yao took a step back in shock from Shi Sheng's aura. She braced herself and said, "I want to talk to you about General Cang Lan."
Her little face was flushed red. She didn't know if it was because she was scared or embarrassed.
"Oh, I don't want to hear it," Shi Sheng answered coldly.
What could the female lead possibly say to her?
She must have spoken ill of Cang Lan and wanted her to break off the engagement herself.
Previously, the female lead had used the same method to pester Cang Lan.
Since this method didn't work, she thought of other ways to scare him.
Yue Yao had already prepared a script, but it was useless now. She looked at Shi Sheng and didn't know what to say.
But when she remembered that she was on a quest, she clenched her teeth and said, "Princess Qing Guan, look at yourself. You're beautiful and have a noble background. There are all kinds of young talents in the South Jin Kingdom. Why do you have to marry so far away and leave your hometown? You may never be able to return to the South Jin Kingdom and see your family. "
"You climbed into this consort's window in the middle of the night just to praise this consort? Could it be that you like me? "Shi Sheng had a mocking expression on her face.
She didn't even think about how the people of the South Jin Kingdom and the Chen State would view her if she really went back like this. Would they say that she wasn't good enough for Cang Lan, or would they guess that there was something wrong with her that caused Cang Lan to dislike her?
In this era, reputation was more important than anything else, and the number of gossipers was no less than in the modern world. 'Is the female lead trying to ruin my reputation?'
Yue Yao was speechless. 'My main topic is yet to come!!!'
Yue Yao felt like she couldn't communicate with this princess.
"Princess Qing Guan, Cang Lan … General Cang Lan actually has a strange habit. He often doesn't wash his face or his feet, and he likes to be rough with women. I'm doing this for your own good. If you really marry him, you'll be the one to suffer … "Yue Yao continued to work hard. She had already dealt with so many people before, so she didn't believe that she couldn't handle this one.
"You're so clear on this. Who are you to him?" Shi Sheng cast a sidelong glance at Yue Yao.
The female lead was going all out in order to break up the male lead's marriage.
But … what she wanted to do was to break up the male lead and female lead's CP.
"I'm just a kind-hearted person who doesn't want to see you all deceived." Yue Yao put on a friendly smile.
"Don't you think it's ridiculous that you barged in here for a stranger? Do you know what kind of crime it is to be caught? I can just kill you on the grounds of an assassination attempt. Even if someone finds out tomorrow that I'm the Princess of South Jin, no one will come looking for trouble with me. "
The female lead was so reckless. Yue Yao didn't know how the original owner, who had such a good background, ended up in such a state.
Yue Yao felt a chill run down her spine. She stared in horror at the woman sitting cross-legged on the bed. The corners of the woman's lips curled up into a mocking and malicious smile, causing Yue Yao's scalp to go numb.
"I … I was just being kind. How can you be so unreasonable?" Yue Yao gritted her teeth and stared nervously at Shi Sheng.
"You climbed through my window in the middle of the night, and you still want me to be reasonable?" Shi Sheng jumped off the bed, and with a flick of his wrist, an Iron Sword appeared in his hand. "Today, I'll show you what it means to be unreasonable."
Shi Sheng swung the Iron Sword at Yue Yao.
"Ah!" Yue Yao cried out in shock, covering her head as she dodged the Iron Sword.
Shi Sheng was probably really angry, for the Iron Sword mercilessly slashed at her.
'Motherf * cker! Instead of sleeping in the middle of the night, you came to I to try and brainwash me! And now you're saying I'm unreasonable!
'Who's the unreasonable one here?
I must've been too gentle just now, making Yue Yao think I'm easy to bully. '
Yue Yao hadn't expected Shi Sheng to suddenly attack her. She immediately tried to use her magic.
However, every time she tried to form a seal, Shi Sheng would accurately interrupt her. Yue Yao's body was cut several times, and the room was filled with the faint smell of blood.
"Princess Qing Guan, I'm the young miss of the Prime Minister's Estate … You can't kill me!" Yue Yao couldn't use her magic, so she was a piece of trash. How could she compare to Shi Sheng?
"Who said I wanted to kill you? I was just teaching the assassin a lesson." 'I'm not stupid. I can't kill her because she has the female lead's halo, but I can cripple her without using my killing intent.'
Shi Sheng knew when to stop. He wouldn't kill her, but there would be a lot of blood. It was quite scary to watch.
After dealing with Yue Yao, Shi Sheng went to wake Bi Xi up.
Bi Xi's face turned pale when she saw the puddles of blood in the room.
"Your Highness, are you alright?" Bi Xi nervously looked Shi Sheng up and down. When she didn't find any traces of blood on him, she sighed in relief.
But then she was puzzled. 'How did I fall asleep just now? Fortunately, Her Highness is fine. If something happened to Her Highness, how am I going to explain it to His Majesty? '
"I'm fine. Go wake those people up."
Bi Xi glanced at Yue Yao, who was lying on the ground. It was unclear whether she was dead or alive. "Your Highness, please stand outside. The smell of blood here is too strong."
Although Bi Xi was young, she had been through a lot. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been sent to Chen with the original owner.
