Su Qian Han stared at her, and after a while, he suddenly smiled.

Xiao Qing Qing frowned as she glanced at him.

Did this man have a screw loose? I didn't say anything funny, did I?

"Woman, do you know the consequences of provoking This King?" Su Qianhan stood with his hands behind his back and pursed his lips as he threw out that sentence.

Xiao Qing replied without backing down, "Of course I know. After all, it's not like I'll be enemies with King Han in a day or two."

He had already known about this man's vicious methods eight hundred years ago.

"Ha ~ ~" Unexpectedly, Su Qianhan shook his head. There was a hidden meaning in his words, "Maybe you don't know about it."

Before, when they were enemies, their positions were just different. They didn't interact much in private, but now — it seemed a little different.

Xiao Qingran indeed did not know the meaning behind his words, but she was too lazy to guess. She curled her lips and said directly: "Is Your Highness changing the topic?"

"This King does not need to change the topic." Su Qianhan's black eyes glowed like a wild beast, but a light flashed in his eyes, "It's only a thousand taels, this king can afford it."

As he spoke, he pulled out a jade pendant from his waist and threw it over.

Xiao Qingyi caught it reflexively and frowned: "What does this mean?"

Judging from the looks of it, even though it was good jade, it shouldn't be worth a thousand taels of silver, right?

"You suspect This King?" A hint of displeasure flashed across Su Qianhan's face as he tried to explain, "This is a personal item of this king. Take it and go to the Intent Bank. They will give you the money."

Xiao Qing pursed her lips as a peculiar glint flashed past her eyes. She extended her hand to return the jade pendant. "Forget it, Your Highness, you should give me some money. It's fine even if I don't have any silver notes."

If she were to take his accessories and exchange them for cash, there would always be a trail for her to follow. She had wanted to keep her distance from him since the beginning, but if others were to find out …

Su Qian Han frowned as he seemed to know her concerns, and said impatiently, "Just take it, the people from the bank will not talk too much."

Did this girl really not want to have anything to do with him?

"In that case, I will accept it." Xiao Qing Ran raised her eyebrows in relief. Naturally, she wasn't afraid that Su Qian Han would lie to her. Although this man had a very perverted personality, he was still very trustworthy.

She put her hand on the jade pendant in her bosom and cupped her hands in greeting, "Originally, I didn't want to accept such a heavy gift from Your Highness, but I think that if I don't take something, Your Highness will feel that he owes me a favor. If that's the case, then we can be considered to owe each other nothing."

Su Qian Han squinted his eyes, but when she said the word 'two is two is two doesn't owe', her eyes darkened.

"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave." Xiao Qing smiled as she turned to leave. However, when she saw her surroundings, her footsteps immediately halted as the corner of her mouth fiercely twitched.

Su Qianhan glanced at her and asked, "Why aren't you leaving?"

Xiao Qing Ran's eyelids jumped. She once again turned around with a change of face and laughed: "I suddenly feel that your highness has suffered from internal injuries, so it doesn't seem right to leave you here right now. Why don't we go back together and save your highness from being alone here? If we meet again …"

"No need." Su Qianhan interrupted her and said coldly, "Since you said that we owe each other nothing, there's no need to help me a second time."

"How can that be? I just received your money, so I don't like to give up halfway." Xiao Qing Ran's words were especially righteous.

Su Qianhan frowned and looked at her in confusion.

What did this woman want to do now?

He looked around and combined that expression on her face with a thought. Could it be …

"Are you lost?"

Xiao Qinggran: "…"

Don't say it out loud if you know it!

"Haha …" Su Qian Han let out a low laugh. He was in a good mood as he looked at the fox who had suddenly gotten lost in the face of that domineering woman from a second ago.

Xiao Qing Ran's face alternated between shades of green and purple. She clenched her teeth and said, "Is it funny?"

If it wasn't for the fact that she had only wanted to take him out of the trap earlier, would she have lost track of the road?

"It's funny, of course it's funny." Su Qian Han pursed his lips and looked at her, his tone lighthearted, "Looks like you're not as boring as I thought."

Xiao Qingyan frowned and looked at him suspiciously: "What do you mean?"

Su Qian Han looked at her again, then he flicked his sleeves and started walking in the opposite direction. From afar, the man's voice was full of laughter: "You can be my playboy when I am bored."

Xiao Qingyi choked, "# $#% #..."

I'm forcing you!

The two of them found a way out of the forest.

The tent was not as peaceful as before. When the emperor was leaving the royal tent to go to the observation deck, he was ambushed by dozens of black clothed men, which caused a lot of trouble. Su Qianxing even injured the emperor to save him, although it was not just a superficial wound, the assassination still angered the emperor.

The sound of a teacup breaking came from the royal tent.

The emperor slapped the table heavily and said angrily, "How on earth do you do this?! "So many people, and yet we can't even catch a few small assassins, what's the use of us raising you all!"

The commander of the imperial guards, Yang Zhi, knelt on the ground and cupped his fists together in salute, "This subject's armor is lacking, this subject deserves to die a thousand times for his crimes."

"I don't want to hear your words that are as good as dead. I want all of you to investigate this matter thoroughly and capture those traitors!" Sung He said in an imposing manner.

"Yes, I've already sent people to investigate, but because those assassins are really strange, and it looks like this assassination was planned long ago, I …" Yang Zhi paused for a moment, feeling the anger from the seat of honor, he immediately lowered his head and said, "Don't worry Your Majesty, this subject will do his best!"

Upon hearing his words, Sage Herb's anger subsided a little. "Where's the Crown Prince? How is the crown prince? "

"The imperial doctor said that the crown prince's left shoulder was injured, and there seems to be poison on that sword. However, due to the timely treatment, I guess I'll be fine after a few days of rest." Yang Zhi pursed his lips, hesitating to speak.

"If you have something to say, just say it."

"Your Majesty, I feel that something is amiss with this matter. Although I am afraid it is your speculation, your servant feels that I should not hide this from you." Yang Zhi frowned, "I've just sent people to check all the tents, but I didn't find anything wrong. It's just that …"

"What?"

Yang Zhi said in a deep voice, "But King Han's side..." Furthermore, this subject has heard that Duke Han wasn't in the tent when the crime was committed. I heard that he went to hunt with the other princes, but now that the prince hasn't returned, His Majesty knows that His Highness doesn't like it … "

He narrowed his eyes and said in an unhappy tone, "I've sent many tasks to King Han a few days ago. It's normal for him to take advantage of this trip to relax. King Han's side should have asked for help from me. You just need to capture those assassins for me."

His words clearly indicated that he wanted to side with Su Qianhan. Regardless of whether this Frigid King was suspected or not, he would not allow anyone else to do anything.

It wasn't the first time that Yang Zhi was an official in the court, so he would naturally look at the emperor's eyes. When his doubts were interrupted, he would naturally go along with the emperor's words, "His Majesty said that if His Majesty does not have any other orders, this subject will take his leave."

"Go." He waved his hand.

"Yes ~" Yang Zhihe withdrew his hand.

The only one left was Sa He. His eyes glimmered as his hands that were clasped on the table trembled. He suppressed his tone and said, "It seems like the imperial court will not be peaceful again …"

"Someone, come!"

Gao Tang came in from outside the royal tent: "Your Majesty ~"

"Ride, I want to go see the crown prince."

"Yes ~"

On this side, Su Qianhan and Xiao Qingyi walked out of the forest with great difficulty, only to see many flustered guards and maids coming and going outside the tent.

They already knew what was going to happen here, so they weren't surprised when they saw this scene. However, they still had to put on an act on the surface.

"Third Miss, your servant has finally found you." Clear Water ran over, his face covered in sweat.

Xiao Qinglan took a step forward without any expression and only questioned: "What are you panicking for? What happened here? "

"Third Miss, our Crown Prince …" Just as Qing Shui was about to speak, he saw Su Qianhan beside him and was stunned for a moment.

Xiao Qinglan calmly explained: "I was playing around with the young miss of the Zhao family and got lost in the forest. When I came out, I coincidentally met the Duke of Han."

"So that's how it is." Qing Shui quickly bowed towards Su Qianhan and said, "Third Miss, His Highness the crown prince is injured. Not long ago, His Majesty was assassinated. In order to save His Majesty, the crown prince was stabbed in the shoulder."

"What?" Such a thing actually happened? Is he seriously injured? " Xiao Qing Ran's eyes were filled with anxiety as her voice trembled: "Where is Qian Xing? I'll go and see him. "

Qing Shui bowed. "Third Miss, don't be anxious. The imperial physician already saw it for His Highness, said it was a superficial wound. However, His Highness was poisoned and will probably need some time to recover. Right now, the empress is inside His Highness's tent."

"Let's go! Bring me there!" Xiao Qing hurriedly headed towards the tent with her brows furrowed. Her footsteps looked a little messy.

Su Qianhan squinted his eyes and sneered as he followed him.

In the tent, Su Qian Xing was weakly lying on his bed, talking to the empress.

Tears welled up in Lan Ying's eyes. She was so distressed that she couldn't control herself. "Xing'er, your kung fu is not bad either. How did you get injured? If I catch those random bandits, I will skin them alive! "He dares to injure my son to such an extent, truly …"

"Imperial Mother," Su Qianxing pursed his lips gently, even his injured face looked like a modest gentleman. "I'm fine. Imperial Mother, you don't have to worry too much. It doesn't matter how much Imperial Father suffers."

"Child, you are just soft-hearted and filial. Don't you think that you can't take care of yourself until I'm worried to death?" Lan Ying's eyes were bloodshot. She really felt sorry for Su Qian.

"How is the crown prince?" The dignified and caring voice of a man came from outside the tent. With the two words, 'driving arrived', Su He entered the tent.
