Ruan Xiaonuan looked at him in disbelief, not believing that he would actually say such a thing. She suddenly stood up from the chair, pointed at Gu Junxiu and said, "What right do you have to think that I am such a person? Am I such a terrible person? If that's the case, then don't put me by your side so as to not hinder your Prince Yu's eyes. "

"Don't even think about it. In your entire life, you will only be a part of this king. You won't stop until you die." Gu Junxiu said coldly. Her eyes turned red from anger, he grabbed him and asked, "Gu Junxiu, on what basis do you think I'm your slave?"

Gu Junxiu did not reply her. Instead, he used his hands to primly open her fingers, and left the room without looking back. Leaving Ruan Xiaonuan alone in his room, her mind kept replaying the words he had just said.

"Go to hell!" There was no place for her to vent her anger. She saw a vase and immediately threw it onto the ground.

However, this didn't lessen the anger in her heart. After being forced to a corner, she was powerless as she sat on the ground dispiritedly. Zi Juan heard a loud sound from inside and hurriedly walked in. Seeing her messy hair as she sat there, with the door tightly shut, she asked in fear, "Miss, quickly get up."

She carefully avoided the fragments, wanting to pull Ruan Xiaonuan up from the ground.

Zi Juan was clearly a little taller than her, but he couldn't pull her away. She could only collect all the fragments around her. She was on the verge of tears as she said,

"Miss, please get up. The ground is cold." As if she didn't hear her words, Ruan Xiaonuan stared blankly as she stood up from the ground. She didn't even feel the tiniest of splinters on the ground hitting her feet. Zi Juan saw that there was blood on the ground and screamed:

"Miss, your foot is injured." She forcefully stopped her from continuing to walk forward, and brought Ruan Xiaonuan to a chair.

She quickly took off her shoes. Her white, flawless feet were covered in shocking bloody marks. Many tiny pieces had been stabbed into the surface, some of them even entering the flesh. Zi Juan said with a pained heart, "Miss, this will hurt a lot."

Ruan Xiaonuan wore very thin shoes, so these sharp and sharp things could easily fit into her shoes. However, she did not feel any pain, because other than Gu Junxiu's words, she could not tolerate anything else.

Zi Juan found a tool to slowly pick out the pieces on her feet. She didn't hear Ruan Xiaonuan let out a sound of pain even after he finished picking everything out. She said uncomfortably, "Miss, if you feel really painful, then cry out." When she sprinkled the powder on it, the wounds would burn.

After Zi Juan finished everything, she carefully warned, "Sit on the chair first, I'll go tell His Highness about your injuries."

Ruan Xiaonuan didn't even raise his eyes as she let her run out. When Zi Juan reached the main hall, she did not look any better when she saw Gu Junxiu's expression. She bolstered her courage and said, "Your Highness, the Miss is injured and cannot walk on the ground."

When Gu Junxiu heard this, he immediately forgot about how the two of them acted as if they were on fire and water.

Outside the palace, in an unremarkable mansion, Hua Qingse was busy reading all the accounts books from the past years. Most of the officials in the capital lived on West Main Street, but he went the other way and bought the mansion on East Main Street. Although it would take a long time to get to court every day, it was better in peace and quiet.

Suddenly, a seemingly familiar pigeon landed on the windowsill. He already understood that the matter that he asked of others a few days ago was left unsettled. After taking off the things tied to it, a few small words were written on it, "This matter is complicated, let's gather outside the city." Hua Qingse was suspicious, she was a woman who could only survive in the palace with the protection of the Prince Yu, how could her identity be complicated? Could it be that someone intercepted the letter and intentionally lured him in?

If this was really what he had guessed, then this trip would definitely be extremely dangerous. Hua Qingse hesitated for a long time before calling the coachman and bringing him to the place where the letter was written.

This was a ruined temple, and the deity statues inside could no longer be seen. There was no one inside. He looked around at every possible place to hide with a leisurely expression. After he had a good idea of the situation, his eyes regained their calmness.

Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps from outside, as if there was only one person there. He turned his head leisurely and saw a familiar face. He couldn't help but smile and say, "Big Brother Murong, it's been a while."

It was a middle-aged man, his eyes wise. When his eyes were fixed on a person, there was no place for him to hide. When he saw the beauty of the flower, he laughed heartily and said in a rather intimate tone, "It's been a long time since we've last met, but you still have an eternally calm appearance.

Hua Qingse laughed, and did not reply. "Big brother Murong, how's the matter that I asked of you?" Murong Feng clapped his hands, and very quickly, the guards outside came in with a scholarly looking young man. Hua Qingse asked in confusion.

"What does that mean?" Murong Feng raised the head of that person. It was Mr. Du, who had escaped that day.

"This person is the aide of the Ling Yue Kingdom's Minister Sikong Shu. His master was executed by the Prince Yu, but he is rather cunning and escaped death. It took a lot of effort to capture him. "

When Hua Qingse found out this person's identity, she could only think that Ruan Xiaonuan was related to the Ling Yue Kingdom. Murong Feng continued in an interested manner, "The person you asked me to investigate would have shocked both you and me. Tell him to tell you about it." Mister Du opened her eyes. Due to the pressure from Murong Feng, he told him everything that had happened that night without missing a word.

When Hua Qingse, whose expression had always remained the same even after Mount Tai collapsed, heard this, his face revealed clear astonishment. He asked suspiciously, "How can we be sure that what he said is the truth?"

With regards to this, Murong Feng said quite confidently, "That must be true. We can make him tell the truth."

Hua Qingse didn't suspect anything in her heart, because Murong Feng's news had never had any error. Naturally, this time was no exception.

"When I first heard it, it was the same as yours. The emperor who disappeared from the Ling Yue Kingdom was actually hidden in the palace by the Prince Yu. If word of this were to spread, no one would believe it. "

Hua Qingse looked at his expression, Murong Feng did not seem to know about Ruan Xiaonuan's woman. He didn't know why, but she hid this matter from her friends. She echoed his words, "It is truly unbelievable."

Murong Feng didn't notice anything unusual about him because Hua Qingse's face had already returned to normal and no longer showed any signs of emotion. He jokingly asked, "Your position beside Prince Yu, does he know the identity of this person?"
