Prince, Do You Still Need a Prisoner

"Princess, Miss Chu wishes to seek an audience." Ruan Xiaonuan had just woken up, and upon hearing Chu Ying's name, she subconsciously frowned and asked, "Why is she here? "I won't see him."

"I'll send her away." Zi Juan immediately accepted the order. When Ruan Xiaonuan saw her leaving, she suddenly remembered why Chu Ying came over, and anxiously said: "Zi Juan, wait, let her in."

"Mo Yan, it's a bit simpler today, just roll up your hair into a bun and it will be fine." After receiving her orders, Mo Yan hastened his movements. Coincidentally, when Chu Ying came in, she had packed everything up.

"Greetings, consort." She bowed politely, and those who didn't know what was going on assumed that her personality had changed. Ruan Xiaonuan knew why she would do this. She sat there and asked, "What's the urgent matter for you to come to the House of the Righteous Bestowal so early in the morning?"

Chu Ying saw that she was asking the question even though she already knew the answer, and didn't have any suspicions of it. Thus, she reminded her with a smile, "The things that the wangfei promised me before she entered the palace?"

"Oh, you're talking about that." Ruan Xiaonuan said with exaggeration, as if she had just recalled something.

Chu Ying anxiously waited for her to finish, but after a long time, she only saw her drinking tea leisurely. She couldn't help but ask again, "Has the wangfei ever discussed this with the prince?"

"We discussed it." Ruan Xiaonuan took the time to answer. And then her eyes focused on other things. Seeing her expression, Chu Ying's heart had a faint suspicion. However, she still held onto her hope and asked, "Then when will the promise of the wangfei be fulfilled?"

"Hmm? I had said that he would help you speak up before the Prince, but since he didn't agree, I had no other choice. He can't just bring him to the Clear River Garden, right? " Ruan Xiaonuan said helplessly.

Seeing her powerless look, Chu Ying was sure that she had guessed correctly. In an instant, she did not behave like a despicable girl and directly asked, "Are you messing with me?"

"No, I've already done what I promised you. How could I mess with you?" She stared at Chu Ying and said innocently.

Her face was already the color of a pig's liver from anger. She knew that Ruan Xiaonuan was playing with her, but she had no choice but to glare at him in fury.

"I should say that you are naive, or stupid. You and Liu Yingxue joined hands to poison me, and almost caused me to lose my life. Do you think I will help you become a concubine?" Ruan Xiaonuan ridiculed. She was clearly fellow disciples of the same sect as Hua Qingse, but her intelligence was at an embarrassing level.

"Ruan Xiaonuan, don't be complacent." Chu Ying's face turned red and white, turning green.

"Miss Chu, this is the True Xuan Residence." Mo Yan reminded her coldly. Ruan Xiaonuan curled her lips, and her eyes curved like the moon, as she said in an extremely good mood: "Mo Yan, don't say it like that, you will make others feel that we are bullying others."

Then, he said to Chu Ying while beaming, "Why do you insist on being a concubine when you're the younger sister of an assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites?"

"No need for you to care, today I admit defeat and believe you wrongly." After she finished speaking, she quickly walked out of the main hall.

"Take care, farewell." Ruan Xiaonuan said loudly, causing Chu Ying's footsteps to pause, and then she quickly left.

"Esteemed wangfei, it's still you who can make them listen to you." Seeing this farce, those who were gathered at the main hall began to exclaim in admiration.

"If she dares to act mighty in front of you in the future, don't be courteous. The I is your backer." Ruan Xiaonuan said with a smile, but just as he finished speaking, cheers came from the people below. It seemed that when she had entered the palace, the servants in the Duke Palaces had been beaten and scolded by Chu Ying quite a few times.

Soon enough, news of the incident at the True Profound Hall reached the Luoyue House. After Liu Yingxue heard about what happened to Chu Ying, he said disdainfully, "Such a clumsy method, I'm afraid only that idiot would fall for it."

"Empress, what should we do now?" Xin Er asked. A plan appeared in Liu Yingxue's eyes, and she replied, "That idiot must hate my cousin to death, and happens to be a good sword."

"Xin Er, follow me to Clear River Garden." She smiled slightly, her long, narrow eyes full of intrigue. Liu Yingxue had no choice but to sit down again. Clutching her chest tightly, she muttered to herself, "Could it be that her body has already reached this stage?"

"Empress, what's wrong?" Xin Er anxiously asked as she saw her forehead covered with fine beads of sweat.

"I'm fine, go and bring me my box." she said reluctantly. Xin Er easily found the box she mentioned.

After opening it, there were many black pills, which Liu Yingxue quickly swallowed. Not long after, the sweat on her forehead lessened by a lot, and her strength recovered by a bit. However, the pain did not lessen. She forced herself to speak, "Let's go to Xiaoxiang Garden."

"Empress, how about we go and rest for a while?" Xin Er asked worriedly. She was already used to this kind of pain, so she resolutely said, "No need, I know my own body the best."

By the time they had arrived at Clear River Park, Liu Yingxue no longer felt any pain, but her face was exceptionally white. When Chu Ying saw her come in, she said unhappily, "Are you here to make fun of me?"

"I already knew that long ago, what joke was there to watch?" she replied. Seeing the depression on Chu Ying's face, she continued to say, "Now you know, in this Duke Palaces, who is the enemy and who is your friend."

"Hmph, friend? We are not friends, we just happen to have a common interest. " Chu Ying's mind was now clear.

"No matter what, we are on the same boat." Liu Yingxue said. Perhaps the words were too forceful, but the pain came again. However, she had been able to endure it since she was young, so outsiders wouldn't be able to tell that something was wrong with her.

"What are you looking for me for?" Chu Ying asked indifferently. If it were not for Ruan Xiaonuan's matter, she would not have taken it to heart.

"You must hate her very much now, right?" She asked, seeing that Chu Ying was about to speak, she stopped him in time and continued, "Don't be anxious, I hate her too. If it wasn't for her, I wouldn't have ended up like this."

"What are you trying to say?" she said impatiently. Seeing that, Liu Yingxue used the handkerchief to cover her coughing, and replied: Of course I'm helping you, although I can't immediately make you become a concubine, but I can still teach her a lesson.

"What do you want to do?" Chu Ying asked. She had forgotten about her previous failures and was overwhelmed by hatred and jealousy.

"Come here, I'll tell you." Liu Yingxue said strenuously. After Chu Ying finished listening, his face revealed a look of hesitation.
