The person on the bed turned over. Her eyebrows were tightly knitted as if she was not sleeping well. Her eyelashes were constantly trembling, probably because she was in a nightmare.

"Uh-huh." A painful mumble came from behind the bedcurtains.

Su Qian Han's heart trembled. He frowned and took two steps forward. Through the curtain, he could vaguely see the person on the bed.

Her forehead was covered in sweat, and she was unsteadily pursing her lips. Her two hands were tightly holding onto the corner of the blanket, and her face was also a bit pale.

Su Qian Han accidentally saw the scar on the side of her collarbone. The scene that day suddenly popped out before his eyes made him have a strange thought.

The man stretched out his hand to touch her black hair, but before his fingers could touch her, he snapped out of his daze.

Damn it, what am I doing...

Su Qian Han clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes darkened.

His eyes flashed with a complicated look that even he could not figure out as he inwardly cursed himself. Then, he glanced at the person on the bed before turning around and leaving.

Perhaps it was due to the person on the bed being too tired, Xiao Qingran, who was usually extremely vigilant, was not woken up this time. The person in deep sleep did not know that just now, a man, who should have been fighting against her life and death, had revealed a complicated expression on the head of her bed.

Time flew. It was time for the banquet of the monarch and officials.

Previously, when Su Qianhan was around, the man would throw the matter to someone else without any sort of patience.

Su Qianxing was different. He took everything very seriously, especially the details. He could feel Su Qianxing's intentions from every little detail. It was as though this man could take into account everyone's disgust towards him when doing things.

This time, the banquet was much different from the previous one. This time, the banquet was not a simple one, and everyone was gathered at the imperial palace for a meal and a drink.

As early as a few days ago, Su Qianxing had sent people to prepare some food and equipment, and had also called for a large number of guards to protect the safety of the royal family and the ministers and young ladies.

The afternoon had passed, and she had been nicknamed the 'future Crown Prince Consort' for nothing. However, she had only been called such in private by the crowd. In reality, she had no real name, so she didn't have to abide by most of the rules in the palace so strictly.

"The third lady has finally come. The Crown Prince has been waiting for you for a long time." As soon as Xiao Qing Ran got off the carriage, she was greeted by the attendants beside Su Qian.

"That is to say, Fei Qingshui, you've been waiting here for quite some time?" Riko helped Xiao Qing Qing off the carriage and said half in an arrogant tone.

"Miss Li'er, you don't need to say that. It's not like I don't know anything about the relationship between Your Highness and Third Miss. The crown prince has a deep affection for Third Miss, so I naturally have to serve him well." Qing Shui bent his body to keep his manners.

"You are the only one who knows how to talk. No wonder His Royal Highness always sent you here to do this matter." Riko joked.

Xiao Qing Ran got off the carriage and placed both her hands in front of her abdomen. "Then where is your highness now?"

"At this moment, His Highness is in the tent to discuss the country's matters with His Majesty. His Highness had instructed that if Third Miss were to come, the servant would first bring Third Miss over. His Highness knew that Third Miss was not happy with the commotion, so he had arranged a relatively remote tent for you." Qing Shui bowed and made a gesture, then led the way. "It's not far ahead, but even though it's far away, His Highness has already specially arranged for people around here. Don't worry, Third Miss is absolutely safe."

As Xiao Qing walked over, she discovered that there were signs outside the tents on both sides. There were sentries and torches, and they were all prepared. Almost all of them were involved with that man.

"It's here. Is it okay for Third Young Miss to take a look?" If you have anything else you need, you can tell this servant and this servant will immediately get them to prepare it for you. " Qing Shui's tone was respectful as he probably treated Xiao Qing Ran as his mistress.

As Xiao Qing walked over, she looked at her surroundings. The environment was not bad. This place was indeed suitable for her.

Clear water lifted the tent flap and Xiao Qing lowered her head to look inside. The interior was simple. The tables and chairs were all there. There was even a vase of gardenia in the corner and two or three quilts on the bed outside.

"Your Highness has long heard about Third Miss' sleepless nights, so I've prepared it according to the decorations you have in the General's House. Even the Gardenia flower is newly found, and the quilt that Your Highness has ordered someone else to make is also new."

As he spoke, he intentionally took two steps forward and lowered his voice, "Although the other princess' quarters are all luxurious, the third princess' bedding and bedding are all individually made. Keeping them is much more comfortable than sleeping in any other place."

He was repeatedly emphasizing to Xiao Qing Ran Su Qian Xing's intentions towards her.

Xiao Qingran naturally knew that man could win your heart with the most exquisite item at any time and place.

Thus, Xiao Qing Ran would occasionally mock herself in such a manner. Regardless of how strong she was, she was probably just an ordinary woman. Otherwise, how could she have been infatuated to the point of losing her life when she was with little benefactors like Su Qian?

"Alright, I understand. Go back and thank your Crown Prince for me." There was a gentle smile on Xiao Qing Ran's face as usual.

"Yes, then if there's nothing else, this servant will go down first." Qing Shui left with his body half-lowered.

Riko placed the Gardenia Flower at the foot of the bed after sending the water back. She smiled and said, "Your Highness is always so meticulous and always thinks of Miss."

Xiao Qing Ran's eyes darkened. It was unknown if she was laughing at herself or at others. "Is that so …"

Riko's hand that was holding the vase paused for a moment. Suddenly, she recalled how strange it had been for the past two days. She pursed her lips and turned her head. "Miss …"

"No problem, I was just casually saying that." Xiao Qingran shook her head and smiled: "You should pack up here first. This tent is a little stuffy, I'll go out for a walk first."

"Alright, then I'll go out and find Miss after I'm done packing up."

She didn't feel at ease wandering around here by herself.

"Right." Xiao Qing Qing nodded and left the tent.

There were many guards who came and went to check on the safety of the place. Xiao Qing passed through them and wandered around the tent aimlessly. Because there was quite a distance from the banquet, she was not afraid of meeting someone who liked to cause trouble.

Even so, she tried her best to go to a more remote place. She didn't know why, but she still couldn't accept things like the imperial palace's banquets. It was as if the environment itself was very annoying.

As Xiao Qing thought about this, she took the opportunity to observe her surroundings.

The dark book matter had not been resolved yet, but Su Qian Xing's lack of movement did not mean that he had given up. Although the people below did not send any news, if he was not wrong, the man would make his move today.

It was surrounded by dense forest. It would be an urgent matter if he tried to assassinate him.

She understood Su Qian Xing. That man had always been careful when he did things. If he wanted to do things secretly, he would have thought of a way out, but the book was definitely not in Su Qian Han's hands. What method did he want to use to find the book?

Ambushing the West? Impossible, Su Qianhan had already used such a method the last time. Su Qianxing was not that stupid and would definitely not use something like this to alert the enemy.

But what else?

Xiao Qingyi furrowed her brows, unconsciously stopping beside a huge rock. Behind her, there seemed to be the sound of footsteps approaching stealthily.

She sneered coldly and remained silent. However, when she felt the person behind her reach out to put a hand on her shoulder, she turned around with cold eyes to capture him.

"Aiyo ~ Beauty, let go, it's me ~" The person held his wrist, bent over and touched his shoulder with one hand, and cried out, "It's me, it's me ~"

Xiao Qing was stunned, "Liu Suifeng? Why are you here? "

"Let's not talk about this for now. Let me go first!" Liu Suifeng grimaced in pain.

Xiao Qing Qing frowned and let go, "Didn't I ask you to cure Su Qian Han's poison? What are you doing here? "Don't tell me you followed that man behind his back."

"Beauty, why are your hands so strong? My wrist is almost broken by you." Liu Suifeng rotated his wrist and shoulder and said, "How could that be? With that man's ability, it would be a hundred times more difficult for me to escape the Prince's Mansion, not to mention sneaking in here."

Xiao Qing pursed her lips, "You're right. Then you're …"

"The man asked me to come over."

Xiao Qing Qing asked curiously, "Su Qianhan?"

"Yeah." Liu Suifeng nodded his head, "I've heard that there will be a feast for the king and official. I've been in the martial arts world for a long time, so I wanted to see how this prince and officials communicate. I originally wanted to try it out with a man, but he actually agreed. I'm quite surprised."

Xiao Qing Ran naturally did not think that Su Qian Han was being nice. Her first reaction was that that person was probably planning something.

Could it be … He knew a bit about his relationship with the Flower Pavilion, so he brought Liu Suifeng here to test him?

The color in Xiao Qingran's eyes flickered as she asked in a low voice: "Did you tell Su Qianhan that you knew me?"

"Of course not." Liu Suifeng raised his eyebrows and grabbed a grass root that had soil on it, "Beauty, you are underestimating me too much. I know that your current status is very awkward, although I don't know why you, the future Crown Princess, would help that man, but I'm not stupid, so why would I reveal your true identity?"
