But if Prince An really did that, it would be really infuriating. It would ruin the happy atmosphere of the wedding.
Big Brother might only have this one wedding in his life. How could he be happy to see Prince An? He had to suppress his anger and smile. Just thinking about it made Xiao Shi feel depressed for Big Brother. He would probably be angry in the future.
Chu Li said, "If he really does that, as the Princess, you will have to cooperate in public. I'm afraid you will have to sleep here tonight. What will you do?"
Siao Shi said, "Then what do you think I should do?"
"I can only think of a way to stop him." Chu Li said, "I should teach him a lesson."
"You can kill him?" Siao Shi scoffed, "If something really happens, it will be the Public House's responsibility. He has his eyes on it, that's why he dared to do it. What a shameless bastard!"
Chu Li smiled.
"You can still smile?!" Siao Shi rolled her eyes, "Quickly think of a way!"
"I will personally escort His Royal Highness." Chu Li said, "Just in case there are any troubles along the way."
"Escort him here?" Siao Shi frowned at him, guessing what he was planning. She muttered, "Ambush him along the way?"
Chu Li shook his head.
"What else can we do?" Siao Shi scoffed, "We can't just let him come here and cause trouble so easily, right? … At the very least, we can injure him badly and make him lie down and not cause trouble. "
Chu Li smiled, "That depends on how Amethyst Mountain handles it!"
"What does this have to do with Amethyst Mountain?" Siao Shi's thoughts turned and she muttered, "Amethyst Mountain will definitely not let you go … You want to use Amethyst Mountain to kill Prince An? It won't be that easy! Amethyst Mountain are not idiots. They don't have an Enlightened Master, they won't dare to kill Prince An! "
"I have to try." Chu Li said.
"Alright then." Siao Shi said, "Just don't let him get here smoothly!"
Chu Li said, "This time I will need Lu Yurong's help again."
Siao Shi's brows furrowed.
She did not like Chu Li and Lu Yurong being together all the time. She felt uncomfortable looking at them.
But she also knew that Lu Yurong and Chu Li were birds of a feather. The two of them had a tacit understanding and could be trusted. Although they were still opponents, they would not break their promise.

Prince An found out from Xu Ning that Chu Li and Siao Shi had already left the Imperial Residence and returned to the House of High Dukes. Instantly, his mood was at ease. He felt his entire body lighten up, as if the rock that was pressing on his chest had disappeared.
Early in the morning, King An stepped out of the Cultivation Courtyard and smiled at Xu Ning who was guarding the entrance, "Revered Sir, we should be on our way."
Xu Ning pressed his palms together and bowed.
King An's handsome face revealed a hint of excitement. "Let's not bring too many Protectors, the more people, the more eyes there will be. Just the two of us and Zheng Lide, we'll visit incognito without being noticed by the High Duke's Public House, and then suddenly offer ourselves, what do you think?"
"I'm just afraid that the High Duke's Public House has many spies," Xu Ning said slowly, "and they'll discover us in advance."
"Let's change our attire." Prince An chuckled and said, "If we wear coarse clothes, will we still be noticed by the Public House?"
"Yes." Xu Ning nodded.
Prince An said, "It's the Yi Public House's grand wedding, there will definitely be a lot of people going to celebrate. No matter how many spies the High Duke's Public House has, they can't possibly watch everyone. Let's sneak in, and when the banquet is about to start, we'll reveal our identities. Hehe, it'll be very interesting!"
Thinking of this, he felt extremely happy. Chu Li's weakness was the High Duke's Public House. Finding trouble with the High Duke's Public House would anger Chu Li.
Xu Ning remained silent.
Prince An scoffed. "If Chu Li doesn't let me be happy, I won't let him be happy either. Siao Tieying must be mad, but he can't do anything to me!"
"Your Royal Highness, we have to be careful of the High Duke's Public House's anger. If it's not beneficial to Your Royal Highness …, it's better to bring a few more Protectors!" Xu Ning said.
"There's no need." Prince An waved his hand. "It'll be too conspicuous if there are too many people, it's fine as it is."
He was sure that the High Duke's Public House would not dare to do anything to him.
"Yes." Xu Ning did not try to persuade him anymore.
The two of them talked as they walked towards his study room.
When they arrived at the courtyard where the study room was located, Prince An's face darkened. He coldly stared at Chu Li who was standing at the courtyard entrance with a smile.
Chu Li closed fist saluted and smiled. "Greetings, Your Royal Highness. Greetings, Revered Sir."
"Why are you here!" Prince An's eyebrows furrowed.
Chu Li smiled. "I know that Your Royal Highness is coming out of isolated cultivation. I'm here to congratulate you!"
"Hmph, didn't you return to the High Duke's Public House?!" Prince An scoffed.
He was furious. Who was the one who leaked the news?
He glanced at Xu Ning.
Other than Revered Sir Xu Ning, no one else would know that he was coming out of isolated cultivation. Could it be that Chu Li and Xu Ning had some sort of relationship?
Xu Ning pressed his palms together and bowed. "How did Head Chief know that Your Royal Highness is coming out of isolated cultivation?"
"I guessed." Chu Li smiled. "With Your Royal Highness's temper, how could you miss the wedding of the High Duke's Public House? I'll be waiting here. "
Prince An stared at him coldly.
It did not feel good to be seen through by others, especially by someone as scheming as him.
"You really care about me!" Prince An lowered his voice and walked in with his hands behind his back.
Chu Li followed him in. "As the Head Chief of the Imperial Residence, how could I not care about Your Royal Highness! … Your Royal Highness wants to visit incognito and secretly go to the High Duke's Public House? "
"No, I want to go openly." Prince An said faintly.
Once the High Duke's Public House knew about it, it would be a joke to go incognito.
Chu Li said, "I will arrange the Protectors. We need to leave a few Grandmasters in the Imperial Residence as well to prevent the Princesses from being in danger."
"… Very well." Prince An said faintly. "Why don't you stay too!"
Chu Li could not help but laugh. "Your Royal Highness, since I am our Head Chief, how can I not follow by Your Royal Highness's side? … I will escort Your Royal Highness to the High Duke's Public House to prevent any accidents along the way. Recently, Chong Ming Road has been very chaotic. Many of the Protectors of the High Duke's Public House have died. "
"Oh — —?" Prince An raised his eyebrows and looked at Xu Ning.
Xu Ning said, "The five major sects worked together to ambush the Protectors of the High Duke's Public House and killed six of them."
"They have guts." Prince An smiled. "How did the High Duke's Public House deal with it?"
Chu Li said faintly, "They eliminated three sects to improve their security."
"Hehe, that's impressive. As expected of the High Duke's Public House." Prince An's smile widened. "I guess no one dares to mess around anymore?"
"The Imperial Residence also knows the bravery of the people in the martial arts world. The more we suppress them, the more they are not afraid of death." Chu Li shook his head. "That's why Your Royal Highness should not go to the High Duke's Public House. A man of wealth should not sit under the eaves. Why should you put yourself in danger?"
"I have always been a lively person." Prince An waved his hand and smiled. "I must go and take a look. … Since you insist on following me, then you will be in charge of the Protectors. If anything happens to me, I will look for you to settle the score!"
"Yes." Chu Li closed fist saluted and nodded.
He quickly arranged the Protectors. Ying Wuqiu and Liu Xing stayed in the Imperial Residence. Zheng Lide brought the rest of the Protectors to follow Prince An. There were six Grandmasters in total. It was more than enough to protect themselves.
With so many Grandmasters, no one would be stupid enough to provoke them.
