Chapter 179 Shangguan Nanfeng's Plan

Su Qing looked at the medicine bag in the second prince's hand. When he raised his head to look at him, he saw a few strands of Shangguan Nanfeng's long hair being lifted by the mountain breeze.

The blush on her face had long since faded, because Shangguan Nanfeng's words had indeed frightened her.

"Second Prince, what is this and why do you want me to give it to the Second Young Lady?" Su Qing looked at the medicine bag. It was small and folded into a square shape. It didn't seem like there was much in it.

"Qing'er, just tell me, do you want to marry me?" Shangguan Nanfeng looked at the hesitation in Su Qing's eyes and continued to seduce her.

"But what does this have to do with drugging the young lady?" Su Qing raised his head and looked at Shangguan Nanfeng, with confusion in his eyes.

"As long as your young lady becomes mine, she will have to marry me. Then, I can ask you to marry me as my maid.

As long as we get to the prince's mansion, I will naturally have the means to make you a concubine in a legitimate way. "Shangguan Nanfeng casually pushed aside the hair that was blocking his face, looking serious.

"Is this the method you mentioned of marrying you?" Su Qing was stunned. She didn't expect that the Second Prince could be so roundabout.

She couldn't figure out whether the second prince's real target was herself or the second lady.

"Yes, this is the best way. You know, there is a huge gap between our social statuses. The person I loved before was also sentenced to death by my mother for this reason.

Now that I have met you, I naturally don’t want you to get hurt. "Shangguan Nanfeng said this, as if he wanted to reassure Su Qing, he pulled Su Qing over and held her in his arms.

"Qing'er, for our future, can you do this?" Shangguan Nanfeng leaned over to her ear and begged softly, as if he was really sincere to her.

"But the second lady is proficient in medicine. I'm afraid this won't work." Su Qing pushed Shangguan Nanfeng away, his tone hesitant.

On one side was the Second Prince who was looking at her with deep affection, and on the other side was the Second Miss, with whom she had a very good relationship since childhood. Her heart was more conflicted than ever before.

"Don't worry about this. This thing is colorless and tasteless. Mix it with water and drink it. Even the King of Medicine here won't be able to detect it." Shangguan Nanfeng looked at the medicine bag in his hand, his tone extremely confident.

Naturally, the things given by his mother could not be wrong. Moreover, he had specially opened it and studied it before, and it was indeed colorless and tasteless.

"Second Prince, can you tell me what this medicine is and whether it will pose a life threat to the Second Miss?" Su Qing looked at the medicine bag and then at Shangguan Nanfeng. Obviously, she was still struggling.

"Of course there will be no threat to your life. Otherwise, if the Second Miss is ill, I can't legitimately take you into the Prince's Palace."

Shangguan Nanfeng noticed the relaxation in Su Qing's tone and continued to guide her thoughts softly.

"Second Prince, I'm scared." After a long time, Su Qing tremblingly said these words, her watery eyes, like dew on a delicate flower, just looking at Shangguan Nanfeng.

Shangguan Nanfeng was delighted when he heard Su Qing's words. Su Qing said that he was afraid, not rejected. Doesn't that mean that his goal is about to be achieved?

"Qing'er, don't be afraid. For our future, promise me that you will be brave, okay?" Shangguan Nanfeng said this and stuffed the medicine bag into Su Qing's hand.

"I... I'll try..." Finally, Su Qing couldn't resist Shangguan Nanfeng's sugar-coated bullet and held the medicine bag tightly in his hand.

Even if she becomes a concubine, as long as the Second Prince's heart is with her, what does it matter?

Just as Su Qing was opening the medicine bag, a loud noise suddenly came from the South Mountain, followed by a mixture of voices.

The moment the sound came out, Shangguan Nanfeng left Su Qing and slipped into the tent.

A hint of triumphant smile flashed across the corner of his mouth.

"What's going on?" Shangguan Nanxing walked out of the tent and looked in the direction of the loud noise.

Now that he had martial arts skills, he could naturally see farther than others, but he could still vaguely see some people walking in disorderly steps and had no idea what they were doing.

"Brother Nanxing, what's going on?" Su Yue also came out after hearing the voice. When she saw Shangguan Nanxing, she asked subconsciously.

"I'll go up and take a look. The noise just now sounded like a bomb, but there shouldn't be any bombs here."

When Shangguan Nanxing saw Su Yue coming out, he hurried forward and patted her shoulder with his right hand to comfort her.

"I want to go over too." Su Yue looked at Shangguan Nanxing, curiosity in her big eyes.

"Yuer, we can't do that now. It's getting late, and the noise just now was too weird. You stay here, it's safer. Ruofeng, protect the Second Miss, I'll be back soon."

After Shangguan Nanxing finished speaking, he looked into Su Yue's eyes with a firm tone.

"Okay then, Brother Nanxing, be careful."

Seeing Shangguan Nanxing's firm tone, Su Yue didn't know what to say. After all, it was dark in Nanshan, and with the uncontrollable forest fire, it was indeed a bit more dangerous to take her with him.

"You too, don't leave the tent unless necessary. Ruofeng, Miss Su is in your hands. Make sure you protect her well."

After Shangguan Nanxing got Ruofeng's affirmative answer, he took a few people and walked towards the direction of the explosion.

After just a few steps, his right eye suddenly twitched wildly. Shangguan Nanxing turned around, looked at Su Yue, and instructed Ruofeng a few words before turning back and going up the mountain.

Shangguan Nanfeng, who was not far from them, saw Shangguan Nanxing's figure gradually going away, and a hint of pride flashed across his lips.

The loud noise just now was naturally a trick he arranged to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

Although Shangguan Nanxing is weak, he is a prince after all, and his presence will definitely have some influence.

If Su Yue spoke out when he was about to attack her, no one would be able to stop him as long as Shangguan Nanxing was not there, including Ruofeng and those who were putting out the fire.

Now everything is ready, except for Su Qing's help.

If Su Qing fails, it would be a shame for his beauty trap.

"Miss, the weather is cold, please have a cup of hot tea to warm yourself up." At this time, Su Qing brought the tea mixed with the medicine bag into Su Yue's tent.

Perhaps because of nervousness, her hands were shaking, and even the lid of the teacup was shaking and making noises.

"Put it there. I don't want to drink it now." Su Yue heard Su Qing's voice, but did not look up. He just pointed casually at the low table next to him with his right hand, indicating Su Qing to put the tea there.

She continued to hold her chin and looked through the half-open window of the tent in the direction of Nanshan where Shangguan Nanxing had just left.

She didn't know what happened, but her right eyelid suddenly twitched violently. She began to worry about Shangguan Nanxing. After all, it was too late, and the sound just now was very unusual...

"Miss, why don't you drink it while it's hot?" Su Qing did not put the tea on the coffee table. Instead, he put down the tray, picked up the teacup and handed it to Su Yue.

Su Yue did not move her eyes away, but subconsciously took the teacup that Su Qing handed over.

"Qing'er, why are your hands so cold? I'm not cold. Why don't you drink some to warm yourself up?" Su Yue was just about to take the teacup when she accidentally touched Su Qing's fingers.

A chill came from Su Yue's fingertips.
