Zhao Yong was killed with one sword. Yan Jiangrong took back the sword without even looking. He looked deeply at Sheng Nuan, then bowed to Sheng Tingyuan and saluted: "What happened today, the Duke has been wronged. I will tell you when I get back."
Father, please rest assured."
From the moment the letter that was supposed to be in the study of Duke Guo's Mansion appeared on Zhao Yong's body, Yan Jiangrong knew that Duke Protector's Mansion already knew everything.
Now, only the last layer of window paper has not been punctured, and there is really no need to whitewash it too much.
"Farewell, the Duke will stay behind."
Yan Jiangrong led the people and left directly. In an instant, only the bodies of Zhou Xiruo and Zhao Yong were left in the open space in the middle of the yard.
A moment ago, Zhou Xiruo thought that today would be her chance to leave the Duke's Mansion and go to the third prince's side, but she didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, everything was in chaos.
The third prince who was strategizing was caught off guard and left in despair, but on the other side...
Facing the unkind looks of everyone in the Sheng family, Zhou Xiruo knelt down with a cry and burst into tears: "My lord, Aunt Lan, and the third prince are threatening me. I, I have no choice but to do so."
However, no one has the patience to watch her act.
The guard next to him was cleaning up Zhao Yong's body. Sun Lanyi's face was ashen: "Come here, take Miss Zhou out of the house."
Zhou Xiruo's face turned pale and she was confused. She subconsciously wanted to beg Sheng Jingshuang, but when she raised her head, she saw Sheng Jingshuang looking at her with eyes full of disgust and hatred.
She begged tremblingly: "Please let me go back to the room to pack my things. I..."
Sheng Nuan interrupted her with a half-smile, "Ms. Zhou is joking, nothing in the Duke's Mansion belongs to you. Even the clothes you are wearing are all the money of the Duke's Mansion. I have done my best to not let you take them off."
.”
Sun Lanyi grabbed her daughter's hand, took a deep breath and said in a hateful tone: "Miss Zhou, please, it won't look good if someone throws you out."
Zhou Xiruo bit his lip and took a deep look at everyone in the Duke's Mansion. Finally, he stood up tremblingly and staggered out.
Sheng Nuan patted her mother's hand.
It's not that I haven't thought about keeping Zhou Xiruo to entertain him, but now the Duke's Mansion is in a worrying situation. Keeping such a thing could easily cause trouble. What's more, it doesn't take much to think about it. Zhou Xiruo can only go to the third prince after leaving.
The cousin who had trespassed in the Duke's Mansion in the past was driven away but appeared next to the third prince. Anyone who is interested can guess something with just a little thought...
Moreover, when it comes to the Third Prince, Zhou Xiruo may not have a good ending.
After a while, after the Duke's Mansion was tidied up, Sheng Nuan left with Yan Jiangxuan and returned to Prince An's Mansion.
On the way back, in the carriage, Yan Jiangxuan was still sitting next to the table reading a book. Sheng Nuan was beside him and sighed: "Thanks to Your Highness this time."
The man who searched Zhao Yong appeared to be a bodyguard, but was actually a shadow guard. That's why he was able to perform the stunt of searching Zhao Yong's body without anyone noticing.
Yan Jiangxuan raised his eyes and looked at her: "Does the princess think that the fate of the Duke Protector's Palace is over now?"
Of course Sheng Nuan knew it was not that simple, but she was indeed not a person who was good at maneuvering. Seeing Yan Jiangxuan's demeanor, she immediately stepped forward and slapped him on the shoulder, flatteringly: "Your Highness, please give me some advice."
Yan Jiangxuan glanced at her and said leisurely: "This time it was a frame-up. The failure of the frame-up was equivalent to breaking up with the Duke's government. With that person's usual methods, he will only be more vicious next time, and he will never give it to the government again."
The government has no hope at all."
Sheng Nuan's heart tightened, and she beat her little hands even louder: "Then what should I do from now on? How about I ask my family to just hide their names and abscond?"
Hide, hide until Yan Jiangxuan's rebellion is successful!
As soon as she finished speaking, she realized that she had said something stupid... Then the Hunjun has hidden dragon guards, so who can hide there?
"Do you know what you said is stupid?" Yan Jiangxuan raised his eyelids lightly.
Sheng Nuan curled her lips: "I'm just too anxious... Your Highness, please tell me directly, how will the Duke's Mansion settle down?"
At this moment, the messy sound of horse hooves approached, and the carriage shook suddenly. Sheng Nuan was sitting half-kneeling, and was caught off guard and fell forward.
Just as she was about to stretch out her hand to stabilize her body, her waist tightened suddenly, and she was pulled into his arms by Yan Jiangxuan and sat directly on his lap.
Angry voices can still be heard outside: "Get out of the way, get out of the way! Eight hundred miles to hurry..."
Sheng Nuan ignored them and looked at Yan Jiangxuan: "Your Highness, what are you talking about?"
As she said that, she subconsciously wanted to withdraw from Yan Jiangxuan's arms.
It was an accident just now, so she didn't pay much attention to it... But as soon as she moved, the hand on her waist suddenly tightened. She couldn't move away, but was hugged tighter to his chest.
Yan Jiangxuan looked at her quietly, his eyes deep.
Sheng Nuan noticed something was wrong: "Your Highness?"
Why do you feel that he seems to be a little bent? No, not so bent?
No, is it a double?
The panic in Sheng Nuan's eyes could not be hidden, and Yan Jiangxuan could see it all.
He frowned slightly, paused for a moment, and finally let go of her. Then he saw Sheng Nuan rush to the other side of the carriage and sit down, looking at him with a look that was hard to explain.
Some even avoid snakes and scorpions...
Yan Jiangxuan's complexion suddenly turned even more ugly.
On the other side, Sheng Nuan's heart was already in a mess.
Single? Double?
You don’t want to play with something this big, right?
Although she is a very open-minded person, she cannot see through everything, especially when it seems that the person he is cheating on is herself... No, no, no, this is absolutely not allowed, this is absolutely not allowed!
Could it be that when God opens a door for you, he will close a window?
Such a seed player with great talent for rebellion actually has such a big bug in this area... No one is perfect after all!
The journey was full of confusion, and it wasn't until the carriage stopped that Sheng Nuan realized that she had returned to Prince An's Mansion.
Before Yan Jiangxuan could move, she quickly opened the curtain and rushed out. The next moment, she saw a figure standing in front of Prince An's Mansion.
It was Yan Jiangrong who had just acted as a demon in the Duke Protector's Mansion.
"Lin'an..."
It was clear that an hour ago he led troops to put the Protector's Palace to death. At this moment, Yan Jiangrong's expression softened again: "I have something to tell you."
Yan Jiangxuan then got out of the car, and Yan Jiangrong raised his hand to him: "Second Emperor Brother."
The emperor's sister-in-law came to see him openly, but she clearly didn't take this second emperor's brother seriously, but Yan Jiangrong still hypocritically maintained his superficial respect.
As soon as the goosebumps all over Sheng Nuan's body subsided, she turned around and forced a smile to Yan Jiangxuan: "Your Highness, go in first, I'll be back later."
Yan Jiangxuan's face became even colder. He glanced at her quietly, turned around and went directly into the palace.
Sheng Nuan felt a little chill on her back for no reason...
