The Legend of the Resourceful Princess

Hearing this, Ling Xi's face reddened, but she still felt wronged, "I'm just too worried. If you don't say anything, then we … Wouldn't she just have to wait for those people to die? " As Ling Xi spoke, her tears were already in her eyes.

"Princess Hua-Yang is a magnanimous person. Although I paid some price, she agreed." Uncle Zhang said.

Hearing this, Ling Xi heaved a sigh of relief. With a happy expression on her face, she said, "That's great, now I should be able to face him, right? When he comes back, everything will be all right. "

Ling Xi's words caused Uncle Zhang to involuntarily shake his head. With a complicated expression on his face, he said, "Little girl, don't be too stubborn in everything you do. Those people betrayed you and me, they are already people who deserve to die. You used all sorts of excuses to make those people stay. But don't forget, you and I are not free people after all. It was only a temporary measure to work with the princess consort now. "One day, you and I will be pawns."

These words of Uncle Zhang caused Ling Xi's expression to darken. "I know."

"It's good that you know this. Do your job well, don't think about the person who left you here anymore. If that kid had really been able to take responsibility back then, he wouldn't have left you alone to look after so many refugees! " At the end of his speech, Uncle Zhang even seemed to be reprimanding him a little.

That's right, no one knew that the gentle and powerful Miss Ling Xi who cared about others in the outside world was only waiting for a single person. She had stayed in this refugee zone for the sake of that person's words.

Of course, this was another story.

"Sister-in-law, I hate that underground place." After Princess Wuyou left Uncle Zhang's courtyard, she spoke to Murong Yue. Mu Ru Yue's heart moved as she asked, "Why?"

Princess Wuyou shook her head, her eyes were also filled with confusion. "I don't know either. I just feel that something will happen there."

"Don't worry, no one will touch that place. I'm only using the water there." Mu Ru Yue knew that Princess Wuyou was worrying about her, so she replied in a good-natured manner. Princess Wuyou's gaze fell on her.

Under the sunlight, Mu Ru Yue's appearance wasn't distinct. It was just that her eyes were still eye-catching. The brilliance in her eyes was like a finishing touch. It made her look charming.

Princess Wuyou liked Mu Ru Yue's gaze because she could always see the gentleness that she wanted in her gaze. Available... Today's matter caused her to feel slightly suspicious in her heart. Why did her royal sister-in-law bring her here?

What did my royal sister-in-law hope me to discover? Or … Princess Wuyou didn't dare to continue her train of thought as she fell silent.

"Who is it!" At the exit of the Southern District, two men holding a saber walked towards Mu Ru Yue and Princess Wuyou, vigilantly watching the two of them. In the surroundings, there were still many people who were pressed down here.

Princess Wuyou, who was still deep in thought, was suddenly enraged when she was interrupted. She raised her head and saw two officials and snorted coldly, "How dare you! Who am I? "Go get Jiang Zilan for my aunt!"

"Our lord has already been sent by His Majesty to investigate the assassins. We were ordered to stop those who tried to escape. The two of you are dressed in noble clothes, not like the people here." "Please make it clear." The ones who spoke were not the two people who stopped Mu Ru Yue and Princess Wuyou.

It was another person walking over from not too far away. This person was dressed in the uniform of the imperial guards. However, his clothes were embroidered with golden edges. It was obvious that he was of a much higher rank than the other two. Princess Wuyou coldly snorted, and spoke with a disdainful look: "What does investigating an assassin have to do with this princess? Go get him! Didn't you want to know who your aunt is? "Just ask him!"

These three words caused everyone's heart to skip a beat. It had to be known that the Imperial Advisors had brought quite a few Imperial Advisors with them today. It was difficult to guarantee that no one would be able to sneak out to see the Imperial Advisors. If they were to run into the princess now, perhaps even ten heads wouldn't be enough.

Mu Ru Yue wanted to laugh when she saw how difficult Princess Wuyou was to deal with. She had to admit that when she was being unreasonable, no one could stop her. However, it was precisely because of this that the suspicion between her and Princess Wuyou was removed.

No assassin would do something so obvious in front of so many people. Princess Wuyou was indeed intelligent.

"So it's Your Highness the Princess. Please wait a moment." The guard said respectfully. There was no trace of anger on his pretty face. In just a short moment, Murong Yue and Princess Wuyou saw Jiang Zilan.

Jiang Zilan was still wearing his patrol uniform. However, he was no longer as high-spirited as he was before. Now, he looked even more dispirited. He also looked at Murong Yue and Princess Wuyou with resentment.

The others didn't know what was wrong, but he had personally let Murong Yue and Princess Wuyou in. Naturally, he was the first to suspect these two. In particular … Neither of them was the type to stop things. Only the heavens knew how much he wanted to rush out to find Princess Wuyou and Mu Ru Yue when they were interrogating him!

"I wonder what business does Your Highness have with my wife?" Jiang Zilan's tone was not very good, and was even a little tired.

Princess Wuyou's expression froze when she heard this. However, she still raised her head arrogantly, and said willfully: "Your subordinates wanted to interrogate this princess, and even threatened this princess with a knife. Jiang Zilan, you've grown up! You even dare to block this princess' way! "

Hearing that, Jiang Zilan felt a headache coming on. "My dear mistress, some of them have never seen you before, so it is normal for them to stop you. Moreover, His Majesty personally ordered that no one was to leave until the assassins were thoroughly investigated. "

"Even this princess is not allowed to? Humph! This princess will still try to assassinate the Imperial Advisor? " Princess Wuyou said with a dissatisfied expression.

"Young mistress, you should just relax for a while. You can leave after you find out more about it." Jiang Zilan said helplessly. It wasn't that he didn't want to let Murong Yue and Wuyou go, it was just that the situation was getting serious.

Furthermore … It was definitely done by these two women!

Jiang Zilan called out in his heart, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he turned to the two guards and said, "You two, this is His Majesty's Ninth Princess and Seventh Princess. You've offended your benefactor, why haven't you apologized yet?"

When the two saber-wielding guards heard his words, they shuddered and immediately kneeled down.

"Humph!" "All of you are sensible." Princess Wuyou harrumphed coldly, turned around and looked at Jiang Zilan, feeling wronged, "I said … Can't you really let me go back? If royal father finds out about my Li Palace, then I'm dead for sure! "

You know you made a mistake? Jiang Zilan rolled his eyes. At this point in time, he was on the verge of losing all his strength to fight back. He snappily said, "Anyways, I have already been killed by you guys, so hurry up and leave. "Later on, remember to go to the prison to see young master."

Jiang Zilan then ordered the guard at the door, "Your highness, the princess wants to return to the palace. Please move out of her way."

Jiang Zilan had absolute power here. Even though an assassination attempt had occurred, the Emperor didn't question the Jiang family in the slightest. He just asked them to stay here and stand guard. If the assassin was found, the matter would be exposed.

If he hadn't, His Majesty wouldn't have done anything to him.

Thus, when these people heard Jiang Zilan's order, they immediately made way for Murong Yue and Princess Wuyou.

"Thank you." Princess Wuyou turned her head, smiled mischievously at Jiang Zilan, and left with Mu Rong Yue. Jiang Zilan watched the back of Princess Wuyou as a trace of helplessness flashed across his eyes, as well as a little doting.
