Su Qian Xing frowned and walked into the hall towards his seat, "I didn't say that."

"Then what do you mean? "Su Qianxing, don't forget, it was you who sent a message to my mufei saying that you wanted to marry the Jin Kingdom, and I believed your words and had Ling'er probe Su Qianhan. This was originally done in private, but now it has gone to royal father, if this goes on, the marriage is inevitable.

He came here to find a mutually beneficial partner, not to be suppressed by others. From Su Qianhan's way of doing things, he seemed to be able to be restrained by others.

"Don't worry, I will take care of this matter." Su Qianxing said in a low voice, "I understand Xiao Qingran. Although she doesn't seem to care on the surface, she must be angry in private. She's going to make a move soon. If anything goes wrong with Su Qianhan, we must protect her."

"Two birds with one stone? Heh ~ "Zhao Jin sneered," You said the same thing before, but now I see that Xiao Qing Qing didn't have much of a reaction and actually made it difficult for me. I really don't know if you're going to deal with them or me.

These words caused Su Qian Xing's heart to skip a beat. Although the fourth prince was immature at times, that didn't mean he was an idiot. Previously, he came here because he thought it was profitable, but if he wasn't given enough things, he would definitely retreat.

Honestly speaking, he didn't expect that the other side would take it seriously. Although it was true that Zhao Jin came here on orders to get married, the Emperor of Jin didn't send out any death orders. He only came to investigate, so when the princess was messing around with Zhao Jin during the welcoming banquet, she didn't notice.

But now, why …

Su Qian Xing's gaze darkened as a figure flashed through his mind.

The Queen Mother!

Very good, Xiao Qing Ran! I've actually thought of this, I've really underestimated you!

However, he didn't immediately make it clear that he was threatening her and just said, "I hope that Your Highness will resolve this issue well. I don't want to come back to the Great Summon and cause any trouble, but if Your Highness can't resolve it, then that's fine, I have a sister here anyways."

He paused, and then laughed, "Actually, if the marriage between the two nations is not a bad thing from another perspective, and if I can help Su Qianhan ascend to the throne, it would be beneficial for me. Even if he is not someone who can be suppressed, it would not matter.

These words were purposely said to provoke Su Qian Xing.

Su Qian Xing, however, naturally did not. He calmed himself down and said, "I know that the Fourth Prince is anxious, but rest assured that no matter how this matter ends up, I promise that I will let the Fourth Prince have what you want and not implicate you."

The man in front of him cared the most about benefits. As long as he could give those things to him, it would be fine.

As expected, after hearing his words, Zhao Jin's face slightly recovered. He coldly snorted and stood up, "Since Your Highness has said so, I will wait a little longer. I hope that the Fourth Prince can come up with a good plan to not make things difficult for everyone."

"Alright, I will settle this as soon as possible." Su Qianxing was calming him down.

"It's getting late. This prince has finished what he needed to say. I should go back now. Your Highness, there's no need to send me off." Zhao Jin cupped her hands together and left.

Su Qianxing watched him leave and called for a servant to send him off. Then, the coldness in his eyes rose rapidly, "Qingshui, prepare the carriage for me. I want to go to the palace."

"Yes."

Su Qian Xing panicked. Xiao Qing Ran's actions had completely disrupted his plans. It was just that Su Qian Xing didn't know that what she wanted to do was not just disrupt his plans; it was just the beginning.

Recently, the atmosphere in both the imperial court and the imperial court was very strange. Everyone had heard the news of the marriage alliance between the two countries, but the strange thing was that Sang He still hadn't been summoned.

The two sides had been in a stalemate for about eight to nine days when the news came from the Jin Kingdom that the king of the Kingdom of Jin was ill. The fourth prince had to return quickly.

This news came without any warning and caught some people off guard.

However, at this critical juncture, Zhao Jin, who should have taken the opportunity to return home, did not rush back. Instead, she sent Su Mo a note requesting for Zhao Ling'er and Su Qianhan to marry each other.

When Su Qian Xing heard the news, he could no longer stay still. Only Xiao Qing Ran could come up with such a plan.

It had been half a month since their first meeting, and this was also the first time Su Qianxing had come to the Prime Minister's Estate to look for her.

"Did anything happen for Your Highness to look for me?" When Xiao Qing Ran appeared, Su Qian Xing was standing under the tree with his back facing her.

Hearing the commotion behind him, Su Qianxing did not turn back immediately. Instead, he maintained his posture and said solemnly, "Qingyi, we've known each other for almost seven years."

If he didn't talk about proper business, Xiao Qing naturally would have brought it up first. Right now, she had plenty of time to speak in an official tone with him: "Yeah, it's already been seven years, what about it? King Lu felt that he was too busy recently and couldn't take care of his old friend, so he came here specifically to contact me? "

Su Qian Xing frowned before turning around, "Do you really have to use such a tone to speak to me?"

"What's with that tone?" Xiao Qingran flicked the dust that did not exist on the corner of her clothes. Then, she crossed her legs and sat down on a stone table. She laughed: "I don't know what you mean. Can you speak in a simple manner?"

"Qingqing, we have at least had so many years of feelings, yet you insist on being so ruthless?" Su Qianxing narrowed his eyes and stared at her as he asked.

Xiao Qing then looked back at him for a while before letting out a cold laugh: "What you just said is really laughable. So many years of love? If you truly thought about our relationship, then you wouldn't have stabbed me with a dagger. If you truly thought about your relationship from the beginning, then you wouldn't have pushed me any further. After all, the person who saved me was not you. "

As matters stood, did this man still want to play a love game with him? This really didn't seem like him.

Su Qian Xing's body stiffened and his gaze darkened, "You're already so loyal to that man? You pushed the matter of the marriage with me for the sake of rebelling against me, but have you thought about it? "If Zhao Ling'er really marries into the Duke Han Palace, how will you be able to stay by that man's side in the future?"

"Why not? I never doubted his feelings for me, as if... It's as if I never suspected you. " Xiao Qingran smiled, her eyes filled with calmness and decisiveness: "Now that you're looking for me to say these words, you've only changed your role. But no matter what the result is, I don't feel like there's anything wrong with my choice now. As long as that man can get what he wants, everything else doesn't matter."

"Even if you become nameless in the future, it doesn't matter?"

"That's right." "As long as he can ascend to the throne, it's fine even if I can't stay by his side as the Empress. In any case, I've always been doing this to repay your kindness from the beginning, and this has never changed."

I think Your Highness should also be very clear, it's not like you've been together with Zhao Jin for a day or two, he will come right away if there's benefits. In comparison to you throwing away the relationship between relatives, perhaps in terms of benefits, it's easier for him to stand on Qian Han's side. Why wouldn't I take advantage of such a good opportunity?

"Qingyi, you …" Su Qian Xing felt his breathing quicken. The oppressive lady in front of him should have been on his side, and he should have been the one to do everything he could to assist her!

"Perhaps I really did underestimate you previously, but fortunately … Fortunately, it's not too late. " Su Qian Xing clenched his fists as his face turned warm, "Qingqing, you are special to me, so I'm willing to give you a second chance. Even if I've let you down, as long as you come back, I'll compensate you with everything."

"Thank you. I don't need it."

"You don't have to be in a hurry to answer me. Very soon, you will have to face such a choice. It won't be too late for you to answer me then." As Su Qian Xing said this, his face was filled with calmness and indifference, as well as an incomprehensible determination. This made Xiao Qing Qing's heart sink, as if something was missing.

"Qingyi, just you wait. You'll be back soon. Very soon."

Xiao Qingran narrowed her eyes as she watched the man leave, feeling that something was wrong. She immediately called Li Er to check on who had been in contact with Su Qianxing recently.

Rio'er sent someone to investigate, but the result was that no one had seen Su Qianxing in private. This sort of reply not only failed to dispel the doubts in Xiao Qing Qing's heart, but it made her even more uneasy.

"Your Highness, this is the last thing I have done for you. Please take care of the rest without permission." The man in black was half-kneeling as he held a piece of information in his hand.

In the study room, Su Qianxing walked around the table and flipped through the information in his hands.

The man in black said with a cold voice, "I have already sent people over. Those are the experts of the martial arts world. I believe nothing will happen to them. Tomorrow, I will leave the capital and never step foot into another place."

As he spoke, he took the sword from his waist and held it up with both hands, "This lowly one has received gratitude from Lord Zhao. Although Lord Zhao is now dead, I know that the two young masters of the Zhao Clan died because of Xiao Qing. Now, I have finally avenged the Zhao Clan.
