Chapter 247: What's the end?
"I like my current life very much, and I will never forget your grace in saving my life and supporting me."
What Furong said were all from the heart.
If it weren't for His Highness, she might have died on that winter night.
How could she be like now, a first-class maid in the most respectable princess's mansion?
In the future, if Her Highness becomes emperor, perhaps she will achieve even greater success.
Power is really fascinating.
No matter whether it is a man or a woman, once they touch it, they don’t want to let go.
She and His Highness, apart from the grace of saving their lives and supporting each other, also share the same fate.
Shang Xi's throat churned a few times before he finally responded in a low voice, "Then you must be careful and don't return to the Princess's Mansion. Be careful of Prime Minister Chen's revenge."
Furong smiled and nodded, "I know."
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and Shang Xi was finally able to get up and move around.
His desire to see Xiao Ning was as strong as an arrow shot from a bow.
Furong had the carriage prepared again and prepared all the necessary items for the journey.
Shang Xi divided the guards of the princess's mansion into two parts, taking half with him and leaving the other half for Furong to use.
Furong disagreed.
"Your Highness, your safety is more important."
Shang Xi said: "Shengjing is now even more dangerous and treacherous, and..."
"I think it's time to spread the news that I'm a man. This will make it easier for me to legitimately seize power in the future."
Although many people in the court may have known the true identity of Shen Zhiyi as the prince due to the operation of Prime Minister Shen.
Most of those people are from aristocratic families.
He never thought of borrowing the power of the family.
What he wanted to borrow was the power of the poor family, the people's hearts and minds, and the military force in Xiao Ning's hands.
Furong curled her lips and smiled, "I understand."
Shang Xi bowed to her and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
He changed into men's clothes. Although he still looked slim and petite, his etiquette and demeanor were smooth and graceful, which was very handsome.
Furong was startled and immediately dodged, then bowed to Shang Xi: "Your Highness, please forgive me for humiliating you!"
Shang Xi raised his hand to support her, "Furong, you deserve it."
Furong: “…”
He glanced at the people waiting for him not far away, raised his hand and patted her on the shoulder.
"I'm leaving. Take care."
Furong smiled and replied, "I will, Your Highness, please take care of yourself."
Shang Xi got on the carriage, and the guards followed on horseback.
Furong stood there, watching the carriage disappear at the end of the road.
…
Along the way, the guards watched Shang Xi grow taller every day, as if they had seen a ghost, even faster than the growing wheat seedlings.
Shang Xi didn't hide it from them.
In a distinctly male voice, she told them, "I am the daughter of the late emperor. To save my own life, I had no choice but to disguise myself as a princess. I was short before because of the medicine I took. Now that I'm no longer taking the medicine, I will naturally grow taller. Don't be afraid."
The guards' pupils trembled.
So, the princess they followed for six years was a boy?
The guards found it surreal when they thought that the incredibly beautiful princess might take out something bigger than theirs.
This is outrageous!
How could such an outrageous thing happen?
I must be dreaming...
The guards pinched their thighs frantically.
hiss.
it hurts!
It’s true!
This is so outrageous.
Shang Xi waited until they were almost acclimated, then said, "Let's go, and continue on our journey."
The guards responded blankly, then mounted their horses and continued to follow Shang Xi.
Along the way, with the cold wind blowing, the guards' minds gradually became clear.
So, the princess is the prince.
Now that only the Second Prince is left in the palace, His Highness has restored his status and is looking for a consort...
Could it be that he wants to target Shengjing and take back everything that belongs to him?
Then...
If they succeed, can they be promoted to the Royal Guards?
That would be so cool!
It's an easy win!
etc……
Your Highness is a man.
That prince consort is also a homosexual.
The guards glanced in the direction of the carriage.
The curtains were blown up by the wind, revealing Shang Xi's face, which was still breathtakingly beautiful even after he turned into a man.
If the prince consort saw this, he would be furious!
No, Your Highness has a lot of male favorites in his own backyard.
But whether it was to paralyze the enemy or just for fun, no one knows.
Never mind, why should they worry about this?
Being fond of male homosexuality is not a strange thing among the powerful clan members.
They would even exchange male favorites to play with.
Very normal, very normal.
Anyway, this will definitely not delay His Highness's selection of a concubine to succeed him in the future.
After the guards understood, they treated Shang Xi even more respectfully.
The closer you get to Jinzhou, the more depressed you feel.
There were no banditry along the way, so everyone gradually relaxed their vigilance.
Shang Xi even felt that all the bandits on the road might have been wiped out by Xiao Ning.
Thinking of Xiao Ning, Shang Xi's mouth corners curled up a little.
He will be able to see Xiao Ning soon.
Shang Xi was immersed in his own thoughts and did not notice the movements around him.
"Shh..."
It suddenly became quiet outside the carriage.
Then Shang Xi heard a faint sound.
"It's the sound of galloping horses!"
A guard said in panic.
Without knowing whether the other party is good or bad, they can only treat the other party as an enemy.
"Your Highness, hold on tight!"
As the sound came out, the carriage suddenly accelerated.
Shang Xi now has long arms and legs. He opened his hands and held the car window.
I can barely control my body.
The violent shaking loosened his tied hair, and the hairpin Xiao Ning gave him fell into the carriage.
Shang Xi was just about to free up one hand to pick up the hairpin.
The carriage was suddenly stopped.
Shang Xi fell hard and hit the carriage. The wound that had finally healed was broken again. He raised his hand to wipe it and felt blood on it.
"Your Highness, the road ahead is blocked."
"We may have to fight to the death here today!"
Shang Xi got up, put the hairpin into his sleeve, and walked out of the carriage.
He looked around.
The road ahead is blocked by rocks, and those chasing us from behind... are vicious bandits.
The terrain on both sides...water on one side and mountains on the other.
"Quick! Zhang Wu, Liu Jin, you guys take His Highness up the mountain, we'll cover your retreat!"
"What are you trying to do?"
There were sounds of laughter.
Shang Xi and others looked up and saw someone jumping down from the tree.
Then more people came out from the hiding place on the hillside.
These people were carrying knives and looked like fleeing soldiers.
The enemy's military strength is several times greater than theirs.
Even if it costs his life, he can easily defeat them.
They... have no chance of winning at all.
"Still want to run away? We finally met a big fish like you. What will we eat if you run away?"
Shang Xi said calmly: "The money and food are all on the carriage, please let us go."
At this time, the chaotic soldiers behind him also caught up.
"Oh my god, this horse is great, it runs so fast!"
Shang Xi said, "I'll give you the horses too."
The bandits seemed to have never seen such a wise man before, and were stunned for a moment when they heard this.
Then he turned around and looked over.
As soon as they saw Shang Xi's face, they all gasped.
So beautiful.
Too bad it's a man.
The bandit leader laughed and said, "We want the food and money, we want the horses, and we want your people too."
Are you kidding? With looks like this, I can give them food and money without blinking an eye.
He must be the pampered young master of a noble family!
How can I be true to my conscience if I don’t kill them hard?
