Second Married Dandy: She went crazy to kill the eldest daughter

Chapter 70
The old lady said this just because she wanted Su Chengying to remember the kindness of the Duke's Mansion and live a peaceful life.

But when Su Chengying heard this, she felt like five thunders were hitting her head, and the blood in her body rushed straight to her brain like a countercurrent.

Qin Zhangyuan is still alive!

And being mentioned by Emperor Liang is enough to prove that Qin Zhangyuan is not only still alive, but also living well! !

The entire Su family was beheaded in public, but Qin Zhangyuan, who had fought with the Su family for many years and was the adopted son of the Su family, was safe...

The more Su Chengying thought about it, the more frightened she became, and the more she thought about it, the more chilled she became!

She tried her best to restrain herself and remained silent, letting her tightly pursed lips ache from the bite of her teeth, and a thick smell of blood gradually filled her mouth.

Seeing that Su Chengying was silent for a long time, the old lady asked, "Why is Princess Tang not talking, but she is unhappy?"

Seeing the old lady's suspicious eyes, Su Chengying swallowed the blood in her mouth and forced a smile, "I just never thought that the emperor would be so kind. I was so happy that I didn't know what to say."

The old lady looked at Su Chengying for a moment, and when she saw that there was nothing unusual about her expression, she waved her hand and said, "This is a happy event. You should be happy. You should also be grateful from now on."

"I should keep what the old lady said in mind." Su Chengying was still smiling, and was dealing with the old lady as if nothing had happened. She was polite, but only she knew what she had said at this moment. It's no longer possible to notice.

As soon as they left the main courtyard, Su Chengying hurried back to Jiaziyuan against the night wind. It was Qiu Wen who was guarding the courtyard and was really startled when she saw Su Chengying's face that was white and green.

"Your Highness, what's going on?" Qiu Wen helped Su Chengying into the room and asked in a panic.

"Prepare a carriage and wait at the back door." Su Chengying ordered while finding her medicine box.

"But Her Royal Highness..."

"Go!"

Qiu Wen didn't dare to delay and hurried out the door.

Within a moment, a carriage was waiting quietly at the back door of Jiaziyuan. Su Chengying had something on her mind, so she didn't even have time to change her clothes, so she got on the carriage wearing a long dress at home.

Qin Zhangyuan was not an outstanding person in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, otherwise he would not have been in the Su family army for so many years, and he was just a small captain. How could such a person attract Beiliang's attention even if he was really alive?

And Su Chengying remembered that she only mentioned the name Qin Zhangyuan to one person.

The eastern moon is white!

The night was getting dark, and there was already deep silence in front of the palace gate.

Other vehicles had already left the palace, but Dongfang Yuebai's carriage was still parked quietly at the entrance of the palace. Zhixu, who was guarding the carriage, heard the sound of horse hooves approaching and quickly jumped out of the carriage, only to see Su Chengying alone. Got off the carriage.

Under the moonlight, Su Chengying came against the wind, her skirt slightly raised, and her expressionless face revealed a refreshing coolness.

Zhixu, "..."

I feel like why does this person come with murderous intent?

Probably because he was intimidated by Su Chengying's aura, Zhixu even forgot to speak. He just stared blankly as Su Chengying got into the carriage, kicked the door open and walked in.

In the carriage, Dongfang Yuebai was slumped in a state of collapse. He opened his eyes amidst the sound of the door being kicked, and saw Su Chengying sitting opposite him with a chill all over her body. Her fingers, which were reddish from the cold, were holding hands. He picked up the teapot on the table and poured himself a cup of tea, then poured him another cup.

Dongfang Yuebai stood up slowly, drank the tea in his hand, and then said, "Just ask whatever you want." Su Chengying didn't expect to be careless and said bluntly, "Qin Zhangyuan is still alive?"

Dongfang Yuebai said without hesitation, "Yes."

Su Chengying squeezed the tea cup tightly and asked, "Did you propose to Emperor Liang that Qin Zhangyuan go to Beiliang as an envoy?"

Dongfang Yuebai curled his lips in self-mockery, "I'm just a nobody with no official position, waiting for hereditary inheritance, and I don't know if I will have a destiny until the word "Gong" falls on my head. How can I speak in front of the emperor?"

"But you have the fifth prince. Now Beiliang and Shengtang are in a stalemate over tribute payments. You can tell the fifth prince the news after knowing that Qin Zhangyuan is still alive. Qin Zhangyuan is just a nobody. He doesn't dare to show off his power in Beiliang, or even Because of your relationship with me, you can also highlight the kindness of Emperor Liang."

"clever."

Faced with Su Chengying's questioning, Dongfang Yuebai praised generously, and even used Su Chengying's hand holding the teapot to fill himself with tea again.

His warm fingers wrapped around her cold little hands, and his calloused palms rubbed the back of her hands.

Su Chengying ignored him and just stared at him and asked again, "In order to use this matter to gain the respect and trust of the fifth prince, is this the reason why you didn't tell me?"

Dongfang Yuebai let go of her hand, stroked his forehead helplessly, and said angrily, "I didn't expect that I was so bad in your heart. I used your name to lure the fourth prince into the bait. If you only think that I am insidious and cunning, If so, then you are probably going to call me a despicable person now."

Not only did Su Chengying speak out, she even scolded him even more harshly, "The young master is self-aware, but I always feel that the word shameless scum is more suitable for the young master."

Dongfang Yuebai smiled silently, knowing that she was really angry.

He slowly raised his head, his dark eyes reflected her face as cold as frost, and asked again, "Even if I tell you in advance, what will you do?"

Su Chengying was stunned for a moment before hearing Dongfang Yuebai say again, "Return to the prosperous Tang Dynasty without any scruples? Or by entering the palace today, take advantage of the emperor's desire to launch an army against the prosperous Tang Dynasty and turn the prosperous Tang Dynasty into a sea of ​​blood?"

Looking at each other, Su Chengying remained silent, her fingers tightening around the teapot.

She didn't take advantage of Emperor Liang today because her reason was restraining her, but if she had known in advance that Qin Zhangyuan was still alive, she might not have been so clear-headed.

Dongfang Yuebai looked at her quietly, "Su Chengying, everyone carries something on their back, but when it comes to seeking your position, you are both the princess of the Tang Dynasty and the young lady of the Duke's palace. Your every move is involved. Countless people’s lives are at stake, and when you can’t do anything, it’s best not to know.”

This kind of Dongfang Yuebai lacks the cynicism of the past and has more foresight that has never been revealed before.

"I just want to see Qin Zhangyuan. What's the difference between me sending you to you and you running over to see him desperately and desperately?"

Su Chengying thought for a moment, then came back to her senses and said, "Is this the reason why you concealed it from me?"

Dongfang Yuebai smiled, "If I really wanted to hide it from you, I wouldn't be sitting here now."

Sitting here, just waiting for her to come and ask questions. If there is really a commotion in the mansion, it is inevitable that the walls will have ears.

Su Chengying looked at this man who had calculated everything, "Why do you have the right to make the decision for me?"

Dongfang Yuebai curled her lips playfully, "Just because I am your man."

Su Chengying, "..."

Young Master, where is your face?
