Chapter 14 The second escape, action!
Lu Jiuan:...
He is indeed the emperor's guard, and he is indeed monitoring the fourth princess, he has no way to refute this.
The fourth princess was angry with him, and he had nothing to say.
"I am the emperor's guard, and also the fourth princess's guard."
"I will do whatever the fourth princess asks me to do."
"That sounds nice." Shen Qingtang sneered, "I ask you to disobey father, do you dare?"
Lu Jiuan:...
Lu Jiuan's silence made Shen Qingtang feel upset.
"Go out, you don't need to teach me to read in the future."
Lu Jiuan's heart suddenly tightened. The fourth princess didn't let him teach, so who did she want to teach?
"Yes, Fourth Princess." Lu Jiuan pursed his lips and said worriedly, "Fourth Princess, I will be guarding outside the door. If there is anything you don't understand, you can call me at any time."
Shen Qingtang:...
[What unnecessary tenderness. ]
"No need."
Not long after, a large group of palace maids and guards suddenly appeared outside the palace. They brought many books on the orders of the emperor.
Shen Qingtang is now using the high-end storage ring that Mu Wan has just replaced for her. She put all the books in it.
She said to the palace maid standing at the door: "Fei Cui, you go to the school tomorrow and tell the teacher that I will not go to class for the time being."
"Yes, Fourth Princess." Fei Cui replied.
Lu Jiuan looked at Fei Cui's back as she left, and suddenly felt a sense of disfavor.
The Fourth Princess' attitude towards him changed too quickly.
Shen Qingtang didn't care about Lu Jiuan's thoughts. She was reading while thinking about how to leave the palace.
In the following days, Shen Qingtang spent most of her time in the study. She ate a few bites at a time, leaving Lu Jiuan alone to eat.
During this period, the two did not say a word.
Shen Qingtang was reading in the study, and Lu Jiuan was standing outside the door guarding her, ready to receive her call at any time.
To his disappointment, Shen Qingtang never called him once.
Shen Qingtang finally opened her mouth to talk to him, but she asked if the murderer who poisoned Shen Muxin had been found?
Lu Jiuan replied disappointedly that he had not found it yet.
"Fourth Princess, the Queen is here." The voice of the palace maid sounded from the door.
Shen Qingtang was reading with her head down, she frowned.
Why are you here again?
These days, Mu Wan comes to the Moon Palace to visit Shen Qingtang every day.
In order to vent her anger for the original owner, Shen Qingtang has not gone out to see Mu Wan.
Humph, let her also taste the taste of waiting hard but being rejected in the end!
"Tell my mother that I'm busy reading and don't have time to see her now."
Mu Wan stood in the yard, staring at Shen Qingtang through the window, with a look of loss in her eyes.
Mu Wan learned from the palace maids what kind of life Shen Qingtang has been leading for the past three years.
She is a failed mother, it is she who made Qingtang suffer, she should not ignore Qingtang.
Mu Wan ordered loudly: "Remember, no one can neglect the fourth princess in the future. If anyone dares to disobey the order, I will not show mercy."
The courtyard was very quiet, and Shen Qingtang heard Mu Wan's words clearly.
Did the queen mother really repent so easily?
Why didn't she believe it?
Not long after, something happened in the palace. It was said that an assassin was found.
Shen Qingtang began to recall the plot.
On this continent, there are three equally powerful countries, namely Fengyin, Beiming and Dongling.
The assassin is from Dongling. As early as a year ago, Beiming and Dongling had secretly joined forces to prepare to annex Fengyin.
The two countries each sent spies to inquire about the news of Fengyin Kingdom. Among them, a person from Dongling Kingdom accidentally exposed his identity and eventually died in the palace.
But this incident does not seem to happen now. Why is the plot advanced?
Shen Qingtang put down the book in his hand and suddenly came up with an idea.
Regardless of the plot, the assassin must be very anxious now that his identity has been exposed. The palace is heavily guarded and he cannot escape.
Unless he can capture a hostage and use the hostage to threaten the emperor.
Shen Qingtang raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Didn't my father say that he would protect her well?
If she was captured by the assassin, my father should let the assassin leave the palace to protect her, right?
In this way, she can escape from here with the assassin.
All she needs to do is avoid being killed by the assassin.
Although this move is risky, the chances of success are high.
Anyway, she will be killed by Shen Muxin in two years, so she might as well give it a try and fight for her life.
Shen Qingtang returned to the bedroom and began to pack her luggage for escape.
She put the kitten into the spirit beast bag. In order not to arouse suspicion, she only took away some things that were not easy to be found. In addition, she also took a sharp dagger.
If necessary, she will kill the assassin.
According to the book, the assassin will jump into the lotus pond at night to avoid the guards' pursuit. As long as she finds the right time to pretend to take a walk by the lotus pond, and then deliberately reveals her identity as a princess to the assassin, she can wait for the assassin to catch her.
Now everything is ready, and she just needs to find a way to get Lu Jiuan away.
If Lu Jiuan was around, the assassin would have been caught as soon as he came out of the water.
Shen Qingtang pushed open the palace door and saw Lu Jiuan, who was guarding the door diligently like a door god.
The setting sun set, and the dim glow of the sunset colored the clouds in the sky.
Shen Qingtang ordered the palace maid: "Go prepare hot water, this princess wants to take a bath."
[Tiantian, you only know how to follow me. I'm going to take a bath now, you can't follow me! ]
Lu Jiuan:...
The Fourth Princess is still angry with him.
After the maids prepared hot water, Shen Qingtang drove them out.
"You all go out, I will wash myself."
Lu Jiuan and the maids stood outside the door, and there was a rustling sound from inside.
The Fourth Princess should be taking off her clothes. Lu Jiuan didn't dare to think about it anymore.
After a while.
Lu Jiuan felt something was wrong. Why did the Fourth Princess take a longer bath today than before?
Thinking of the assassin in the palace, Lu Jiuan suddenly became nervous. He shouted: "Fourth Princess, Fourth Princess, are you still in there?"
Not hearing Shen Qingtang's answer, Lu Jiuan's face changed.
Oh no, the Fourth Princess is in trouble!
"You guys, go in and see if the Fourth Princess is still in there."
Lu Jiuan didn't dare to go in casually. He was worried that the Fourth Princess was just asleep in there. If he rushed in rashly, he was afraid that it would ruin the Fourth Princess' reputation.
"Ah, Fourth Princess, the Fourth Princess is missing!"
The panicked shouts of the palace maids came from inside, and Lu Jiuan couldn't care less.
He ran in hurriedly and checked the whole room.
The Fourth Princess is really missing!
He was so careless!
Lu Jiuan yelled at the palace maids and guards who were standing there stupidly: "What are you all standing there for? Go find the Fourth Princess."
This was his dereliction of duty. Lu Jiuan immediately reported the news of Shen Qingtang's disappearance to the emperor.
If something really happened to the Fourth Princess, he could only die to atone for his sin.
At this time, Shen Qingtang had already walked to the lotus pond.
The plot was advanced, and she didn't know if the assassin would come over.
She prayed in her heart, assassin, assassin, you must come and catch me.
Shen Qingtang approached the edge of the pond and exposed herself to a dangerous position. The assassin could easily catch her.
Assassin, please fight for me! My future depends on you!
Suddenly, circles of ripples appeared on the calm water surface.
Shen Qingtang was secretly delighted. There was movement under the water!
She had to do something else to attract the assassin.
Shen Qingtang frowned slightly, turned her head and looked behind her angrily, and whispered: "Why doesn't Feicui bring some snacks? This princess is almost starving to death."
Did the assassin hear it?
I'm a princess!
As long as you take me hostage, you can leave the palace!
