Chapter 152 Tell my good uncle, we will meet in Shengjing

The wind and snow got even stronger at night.

The inn was only repaired with wooden boards, which had poor wind and sound insulation effects. Even though Su Rui lived in a compartment, the sound of wind and snow outside and the noise of people stranded in the lobby continued to pour in.

But at times like this, some sound is better than no sound.

Represents safety.

Su Rui fell asleep listening to the sound until she felt a chill.

She suddenly opened her eyes.

The compartment had no windows and was completely dark, so she couldn't even see her hands, but she saw a cold light in front of her.

It's a sharp blade.

It was hanging before her eyes.

"I moved so gently, but you still woke up." The voice sounded a little annoyed and a little excited.

It seems very contradictory. I hope Su Rui doesn't notice it, but I also hope she can notice it.

"Your Highness, you have great skills, but please be careful and don't let my blood stain your hands." Su Rui said with a smile, but he stared at the cold light, his whole body tense, ready at all times.

Since the Second Prince was able to enter her room, it meant that Zhuiyue and others were under control and no one else could save her.

"How do you know who I am?" The Second Prince approached curiously, his breath on Su Rui's neck like a venomous snake spitting out its tongue. "It seems we've never met before."

"It is true that I have never met the Second Prince, but in the entire Great Zhao, only the Second Prince has such a charisma."

Su Rui had indeed never seen the Second Prince, either in the past or present life.

The second prince was different from the eldest prince. He stayed in the capital most of the time, but was sent to the southwest for training at the age of ten. He never returned to the capital. Su Rui had never seen him when she was in Shengjing. In her previous life, she died in the border area and her soul was trapped in the Yong'an Marquis Mansion. It was unknown whether the second prince had ever returned to the capital.

However, the first time she saw it, Su Rui had a guess.

Anyone who can employ so many experts must be either rich or noble in Da Zhao. His cloak may look ordinary, but the lining is made of fiery brocade, a material that can keep you warm in winter. Only the emperor and empress can use it.

The fact that he can use it proves his identity.

The age is also appropriate.

Su Rui wanted to avoid it, but unexpectedly it actually came towards her.

"You're such a talker." His fingertips rubbed Su Rui's lips, feeling icy cold. Suddenly, they slid down and pinched her neck. He said with a dark gaze, "What a pity! Even if you were good at talking, I would never forget that you killed my eldest brother."

Su Rui's fingers tightened, and she could already feel her airway being compressed, her breathing becoming tight, but she still smiled and asked, "Shouldn't the Second Prince thank me?"

"Oh? How do I even begin to say thank you?"

"If I hadn't killed the eldest prince, how could the Second Prince be summoned back to the capital? After all, you don't look like the emperor."

Su Rui clearly felt that hand stiffen for a moment.

Sure enough, it came true.

The second prince was sent to the southwest because of his appearance. The eldest prince looked like the queen, and no one would suspect that he was not the emperor's child. But the second prince obviously looked like his biological father, and his pair of long and thin eyebrows were too obvious.

Therefore, Queen Lin and the Lin family never considered letting the second prince sit on the throne from the very beginning.

If the eldest prince had not died, the second prince would never have been recalled.

Would such a person feel sorry for his elder brother who has always been above him?

"You know so much? Did that fake monk tell you that?"

Su Rui didn't answer.

"How boring." The second prince let go of his hand, and the cold light in front of his eyes disappeared randomly.

Then, the door was opened and light came in from outside. Su Rui saw those sinister and fierce eyes, which were filled with ambition without any concealment.

"Concubine Su, tell my good uncle that we'll meet in Shengjing."

After saying that, the Second Prince left, and then Zhuiyue and the others landed, all with injuries on their bodies.

"I'm sorry, it's our fault that we are incompetent." Zhuiyue lowered his head, clenched his jaw, and his fists were clenched so hard that they made a creaking sound.

Su Rui sat up and waved her hand. "There are so many of them, don't be too hard on yourself."

Zhuiyue and others are indeed masters, but it depends on who they are compared with.

If they are all masters, whoever has more numbers will have the advantage. This is an unchanging truth.

What's more, the second prince came here deliberately to intimidate her.

To be precise, it was for Yun Ji.

So arrogant.

After that, Su Rui lost all desire to sleep and sat there until dawn, until she heard shouts from downstairs that someone had entered the passage.

"The road is open, let's go! If it's closed again, we won't be able to leave."

"It's working so quickly?"

"It was Prince Long who happened to be leading his troops back to the capital. They cleared the road."

Su Rui's eyebrows jumped when she heard the three words "Prince Long".

Then the second prince was seen walking out of the room downstairs with his men. When he passed the lobby, he looked up, smiled sinisterly at Su Rui, and then walked out of the inn.

Looking out the window on the second floor, one could see the Second Prince and his entourage galloping on horseback, arriving in the midst of a dark mass in the distance.

I think he is Prince Long's man.

Prince Long and the Second Prince are returning to Beijing together?

No wonder he was so confident yesterday. It turned out that he had already hooked up with Prince Long and cut off Yun Ji's path.

This is a problem.

"Zhuiyue, ride back to Yanzhou quickly and inform the prince."

Zhuiyue was a little embarrassed.

"Don't worry, he didn't kill me yesterday, so he won't kill me again."

After hearing Su Rui's words, Zhuiyue didn't delay any longer and immediately rode back.

Su Rui got on the carriage and slowly headed towards Shengjing along the road opened up by Prince Long and others.

With Prince Youlong's men leading the way, the journey was smooth and unobstructed. When Su Rui returned to Shengjing, the snow had stopped.

This is the pause before the blizzard.

Su Rui went straight back to Prince Yong's mansion and did not go out for several days.

But the news outside was sent in without anyone listening.

The most popular ones are naturally the second prince, Prince Long, and Tang Yuli.

Many people saw the Second Prince frequently entering and leaving Prince Long's Mansion after he returned to Beijing. Once, Tang Yuli personally escorted him out.

Speculations about the two soon became rampant. Everyone said that Yun Ji was bewitched by the enchantress Su Rui and was reluctant to marry Tang Yuli. Prince Long was annoyed when he came back and planned to arrange a marriage between Tang Yuli and the second prince.

The two were of similar age and were considered a good match. Rumors spread that they had already exchanged engagement letters and decided on their marriage.

This was not a good thing for Yun Ji and Su Rui, but Su Rui did not receive a reply after sending several messages. It was not known whether Tang Yuli was under strict surveillance or she herself did not want to reply.

Now that Prince Long is at home, Su Rui cannot be too straightforward, so he can only put the matter aside for the time being and find another way. After all, although he gave Yun Ji 50,000 taels, it is still not enough compared to the nearly 300,000 people in Yanzhou.

Moreover, when the Second Prince returns to the capital, the Lin family will certainly take action. As long as Yanzhou has the slightest opportunity, they will become a knife to stab Yun Ji.

Fortunately, after Pei Yan's incident, Fengyunlou's business did not decrease but increased. After all, after being suppressed for a long time, there will always be young and energetic people who will rebound.

Even though Su Rui opened the door to the outside this time, many women still came to buy rouge and perfume.

Of course, these are all young people, but she also left a more hidden side door for married ladies or ladies from noble families who are not convenient to go in and out, leading directly to the second floor and with special service.

However, Su Rui had just gotten off the car and had not yet entered the shop to check if there were any people who could be won over among the people who had come recently, when she saw the uninvited guest standing in front of the shop door.
