Handsome Prince, Come to my Embrace - C177
Inside the Duke Palace’s Phoenix-resting Chamber, Situ Jingyu didn’t know whether to be happy or sad. She walked around the house, didn’t know how to stand, didn’t know how to sit, and couldn’t eat in peace.
After eliminating the thorn in his eye that was Luo Shang, he should be happy, but right now, she was completely terrified, if Leng Shaoyu pursued this matter carefully, with his meticulous understanding, she might not be able to escape easily, if the man knew the things that he had done to Luo Shang, Leng Shaoyu would definitely kill her.
What should he do?
Just as she was lost in the fog, a carrier pigeon flew into the window and landed on her shoulder. The white pigeon had a beacon tied to its leg, with the word “attack” engraved on it.
Situ Jingyu removed the slip of paper and immediately opened it. There were only two words written on it.
Come back.
Situ Jingyu frowned, she was clenching the slip of paper tightly, her entire body was trembling, she felt even more pressured, and did not dare to disobey.
If she went against this person, she was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to predict what would happen next.
Within the dark secret room of the Prime Minister’s Manor, the lanterns on both sides of the walls flickered as they lit up the items in the chests. There were all kinds of weapons and armors here, and every single item was extremely sharp.
The walls of the room were covered with a layer of white frost. Other than the lamp racks carved into the walls, each of the walls had a sculpture of a pair of stone butterflies hanging from the top of the wall, looking lifelike, as if they were alive. Clear water flowed out of the stone plates like a waterfall, flowing along the walls and connecting to the outside world.
The color of the stones in every corner was very deep, and the entire secret chamber was completely sealed off. The gloomy and cold ground was covered in white ice, and there were even a few slight cracks in the wall that emitted white steam.
“Master, that old thing, Zou Sima He An, has sworn his loyalty to the Prince Jin. He will definitely cause endless troubles in the future.” Prime Minister Yue Dongyang stood respectfully behind the man.
“This official feels that we can’t let this person live.” Yue Dongyang was old, but his scheming was deep and he still had the bearing of an old person.
The man landed on the ground, wearing a black robe with a gold lining. He dragged his body all the way to the foot of the stairs. He had an uncontrollable awe-inspiring aura.
He said without a care, “Then kill him.”
Although it was a casual tone, it was extremely cold.
Pushing open the stone door, the butler bowed towards the man with his back before reporting in a low voice, “Prime minister, the princess has arrived.”
“Let her in.”
Then, a woman in a black cloak walked in, stepping on the cold stone surface. She felt a cold air coming from beneath her feet, wrapping around her tightly, afraid that someone would notice her. She took off her bamboo hat and knelt down in front of the steps.
“Master.”
Before she could react, a whizzing sound filled with wind, and a sharp dagger flew straight at her. Luckily Situ Jingyu had dodged quickly, otherwise, her life would have been gone.
The dagger had cut off the hair covering her face, and she fell back on the back step, scared out of her wits. She felt a slight heat on her right cheek from the neck, and when she touched it, it felt sticky and dark red.
“Situ Jingyu’s face was deathly pale and her body was trembling as she kneeled at the man’s feet. Master, I do not know what mistake Jing Yu committed, I hope Master can forgive me. ”
The man sneered coldly. His hands were so alluring as he caressed the edge of the blade, they were even prettier than a woman’s.
He slowly turned around and faced Situ Jingyu with her devilish face. Her slender fingers hooked onto her lower jaw and her gentle voice didn’t seem to contain a trace of gentleness.
“The biggest mistake is not knowing.”
Situ Jingyu was terrified, her voice trembling. Master, I, I definitely do not have any ill intentions towards Master, Master is truly enlightened. ”
The man exuded an evil aura as he disdainfully loosened his grip on her lower jaw. With a flick of his sleeve, he looked at her sinisterly.
Suddenly, his tone changed. What about the things I want you to bring back? ”
Situ Jingyu rolled her eyes and slowly said: “You know that Jing Yu has a low status in the Duke Palaces, she cannot even get close to the Prince Jin, how can she obtain the secret letter left behind by the previous Emperor? Moreover, she did not receive a body full of martial arts from Su Qing, so how can Jing Yu easily obtain it?”
The man laughed coldly as the words came out of his mouth. Su Qing is too gentle, but you are different. A woman who can kill her own child, what else can’t you do? ”
Situ Jingyu bit her lips. Child, when she thought about that child, her entire body started to tremble. If it wasn’t for his scheme, how could she have tolerated looking for a useless man?
That night had been a humiliation that she could not wipe away.
“Jingyu will bring the items back as soon as possible.” She gripped the hem of her robe tightly.
She must endure it. There would be a day when she would make this man suffer a miserable death.
“There is something that Jingyu was unable to completely resolve. In the war in the Northern Region, only the General Luo died. Is this master’s intention?” Situ Jingyu asked tentatively.
“Are you curious? Or do you want to find out for him? ” The man’s ice-cold voice carried a penetrating force. However, he spoke with a smile and his voice reverberated within the empty secret room.
“Jingyu doesn’t dare.”
The man squinted his eyes, and an evil smile hung on the corner of his lips. To fall in love with him and betray me, what do you think I will do to you? ”
Situ Jingyu didn’t dare raise her head. How did he know?
In the beginning, she only approached Leng Shaoyu for the mission given to her by the person in front of her, but Situ Jingyu had never thought that she would actually be moved.
She had many opportunities to get close to him, but she had never thought of harming him.
“Master, Jing Yu is very loyal to you. Everything she does is for Master’s sake. Please understand.” Situ Jingyu pleaded.
“With his back facing her, the man threw her a bottle of medicine. It looked like he was giving out alms.” This is the antidote for a month. If you disappoint me again, you know what the consequences will be. I don’t have that much patience. ”
“Jingyu understands, thank you master.” Situ Jingyu almost gnashed her teeth when she said these words. She carefully kept the medicine away, stood up and paused for a moment, then roughly glanced at the items inside the secret room before leaving.
After she left, Yue Dongyang stroked his white beard and spoke with foresight: “This woman from the Han King Palace isn’t simple. If you can really use his, it would be perfect.”
The man’s eyes flashed leisurely as he smiled and said, “What a pity.”
The city gate of the capital was filled with portraits of women. Leng Shaoyu knew that Luo Shang had helped the commoners, so he instructed Mo Yun to look for the location of the wangfei, not force his.
The city gates would open once a day, and people who passed by would have to be strictly investigated. If this continued, Luo Shang would not be able to take a step out of the capital even if she wanted to. The moment she stayed in the Wu Zhou, Leng Shaoyu would definitely be able to find her within three days.
Far away from the city gate, a white-clothed woman wearing a bamboo hat was watching from afar. Twilight had arrived, and if they didn’t leave now, it would be even more difficult for them to leave tomorrow.
Lowering his bamboo hat, he took a deep breath of the cool autumn air and walked towards the city gate.
As her wrist was grabbed, Luo Shang turned around. It was a woman with a small child.
“Miss Luo? Are you Lady Luo? ” the woman asked eagerly.
The moment she thought about exposing her identity, Luo Shang frowned and hastily let go of her hand. She then heard the child below him say, “Beautiful sister, why don’t you recognize me and my mother?
The child’s innocent eyes flashed a few times as he made a familiar face at her.
“Bao Er?” Luo Shang thought, could it be the Bao Er who stole her purse and treated his mother’s illness? “That day, when they lived in the countryside with Leng Shaoyu, they accidentally treated the once married girl, Su Mo, of the Empress of Wei Guang. To their surprise, it was them. Why are you guys here? ”
“Su Mo looked around, grasped the child’s hand and pulled Luo Shang into a remote alley. A few days ago, mountains cracked and houses were destroyed, so now, we can no longer stay there. Bao Er and I moved to the cave to stay there temporarily, and just as we were about to go back to the city to buy some rations, we saw you here and thought you were the wrong person. Bao Er said that it was definitely his beautiful big sister. ”
Bao Er laughed as he raised his head, spitting out his tongue. Elder sister is so beautiful, how can Bao Er admit his wrongs? Elder sister, are you going to leave the city? When Mother and I were returning, we heard that it was extremely difficult to enter and exit the city these few days. It seemed to be something, a Prince Jin or something, searching for his wangfei. Originally, I wanted to join in on the fun and finally get into the city, but Mother wouldn’t let me. ”
Bao Er pouted his lips in frustration.
Luo Shang’s simple yet elegant face, even without any makeup, was so beautiful that it seemed as though it could topple cities. Her indifferent gaze under her long eyelashes was even more beautiful.
In that case, it was not easy for her to leave the city.
Su Mo looked at the woman in front of him carefully. Since she was good at using her senses, she looked at Luo Shang suspiciously, and after observing for a while, she asked seriously. The wangfei they’re looking for, is it Miss Luo? ”
In the entire world, other than the Madam Yan, the only person who had such a face was her daughter, the Wei Family’s Ninth Princess. Although Su Mo had lived in the deep mountains for a long time, when she heard that an outbreak in the capital was occurring everywhere, and that the Madam Yan was the true successor, she rushed over to the capital. Out of curiosity, she found out that the epidemic situation had already been resolved.
Later on, by chance, Luo Shang healed her eyes. Although she did not reveal her identity, there were only a few families in the capital that had the surname Luo, and the one with the best medical skills was none other than the princess who had entered the Prince Jin Palace, the younger sister of the General Luo. Luo Shang.
After hesitating for a moment, she finally nodded her head.
“Ah?” Big sister beauty is actually that Divine Doctor Immortal Concubine? ” Bao Er’s mouth was agape, his face was full of shock.
“Divine Doctor Immortal Consort?” Regarding this form of address, Luo Shang repeated it.
Bao Er laughed proudly, as though he had a rather deep understanding of him. He had a sense of pride in himself, and he gestured with his hand. Of course, they all call Big Sister the Divine Doctor’s Immortal Concubine. She’s as beautiful and kind as a fairy. ”
The child’s smile was sweet and his face had a tinge of redness, as if he was a little shy. When he was in a daze, Su Mo, who was standing to the side, ruthlessly hit him on the head, and then he could only obediently hide behind the woman, not saying another word.
Su Mo looked at the notices on the city walls and thought back to the day when she heard the old man at the street mention of General Lo Ke’s death in battle and his wife’s burial. She asked in all seriousness, “Su Mo dare to ask, is the wangfei purposely hiding from the Prince Jin? “You want to leave the capital?”
The heavens of the capital were so blue, and the capital was filled with beautiful flowers. It was the blueprint of the country that everyone yearned for. It’s just that here, it’s not possible to tolerate her alone, nor could it accommodate a woman called Luo Shang.
Luo Shang laughed bitterly and remained silent.
“Then what are Princess Hua-Yang’s plans?” Su Mo continued to ask.
Seeing Luo Shang, she had always felt an indescribable sense of familiarity, and she did not know where it came from. Perhaps it was because she was too similar to the Empress. But the world was so big, and they looked alike, perhaps it was just a coincidence.
The white gauze on the bamboo hat fluttered in the breeze, floating on both sides of the woman’s face. But no matter what, it couldn’t cover her pair of beautiful eyes that shot out in all directions.
She paused for a moment, then said, “I want to go… “To defend the nation.”
“What?” To defend the nation? ” Su Mo was shocked. She never thought that the young miss of the Wu Zhou General Family would actually want to go to a fallen enemy kingdom.
“Right now, all of the Acropolis Nation’s Marquis are present, however, I believe that if you were to go, it would be much better than staying here. “Since you’ve already thought about it, I’ll think of a way to help you get out of here.” Su Mo sincerely looked at the long line at the city gate.
