Fortunately, they have a lot of people this time.
"Father, you are not frightened, are you? Are you hurt anywhere?"
When the emperor saw Situ Zhao had dealt with the tiger, he was very happy, and now he naturally had another bit of trust in his son.
At least now his opinion of Situ Zhao has changed, and he trusts the man in front of him more and more.
Situ Zhao was very happy when he returned to the tent. After today's exploration, he could clearly see the expression on his father's face and the changes in everything.
And the relationship between father and son gradually became closer.
But at this time, Situ Zhao had some doubts as to why all of this was predicted by that woman.
If it happened only once or twice, it could be considered a coincidence, but in the events that followed, every incident happened just as Cui Mixue described.
As he thought about this, he felt that this woman was somewhat mysterious, and he was not sure what kind of experience she had.
"Could it be that this woman has the ability to predict the future?"
Situ Zhao said this to himself with a little doubt, because the things that happened in recent times were too mysterious.
But he did not go directly to Cui Mixue to ask.
But because of this, Situ Zhao naturally could not continue to slack off. He always felt that something was wrong about what happened to this woman, so at this moment he decided to investigate the identity of this woman.
Although the hunt was fraught with danger, it quickly concluded. Situ Yao's injuries had also healed, which was also a happy occasion.
The emperor ordered everyone to set off back to the palace. At this time, everyone was busy packing their luggage, and the scene was bustling with activity.
Situ Yao didn't bring much with him, so he had already packed everything and sat down waiting to set off.
"Oh, my royal brother, you are in such a refined mood. You are drinking tea here alone. It must be a bit lonely. Why don't you call me?" A familiar voice sounded. Su Mengyan looked up and saw that the person coming was Situ Zhao. She was furious.
It is better to ask such uninvited guests to leave as soon as possible.
"It's peaceful and quiet to be alone." Situ Yao didn't even raise his head. He just took a sip of tea and stared at the teacup in a daze.
Situ Zhao walked in and seeing that Situ Yao had no intention of inviting him, he sat down opposite him.
"There's nothing important here today. I just want to ask about my royal brother's injury and whether he has recovered." Situ Zhao poured himself a cup of tea and spoke slowly.
"It's okay now." Situ Yao snorted in his heart, thinking that Situ Zhao might not have such kind intentions when he came here.
"That's good. I was worried that the supplements father gave my brother were not enough. If you need them, I will have someone send you the extra ones I have." Situ Zhao said this with apparent concern.
Situ Yao raised his head slightly upon hearing this, and looked at Situ Zhao calmly: "No need, I don't need those."
"Then my royal brother should not mind me asking for a cup of tea here. Father has given me too many rewards in recent days. You know this, and it may take some time to finish them all." Situ Zhao seemed to have a headache, and he held his forehead with his hand as he spoke.
Situ Zhao glanced at Situ Yao out of the corner of his eye. He wanted to see how his royal brother would react after experiencing this.
Su Mengyan, who was standing aside, immediately got angry, thinking, was this person here just to show off how favored he was? She still remembered how he had deliberately framed them a few days ago.
Su Mengyan had always disliked this man, and she didn't expect him to come and bully her.
Thinking of this, Su Mengyan rolled her eyes in anger and said unhappily, "You know you have too much stuff, but you don't hurry back to help. In my opinion, the Second Prince came here because he is so full that he can't even have tea."
Hearing Su Mengyan's sudden words, Situ Zhao's face turned ugly: "You...how dare you talk to me like that! I think I should find someone to teach you a lesson!"
"I think the emperor gave the second prince so many supplements just to nourish his brain. Our Crown Prince doesn't need those. Some people think they are great just by making achievements. They show off and think they take themselves seriously." Su Mengyan spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly. Her voice was not loud, but every word she said fell into Situ Zhao's ears without missing a word.
"It's a rebellion, it's really a rebellion. I'm talking to the emperor, and you're just a palace maid. How can you have a say here?" Situ Zhao was so angry that veins bulged on his forehead, and his eyes were wide open, staring at Su Mengyan.
After all, Situ Zhao grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth. Who would dare to talk to him like that? When he heard Su Mengyan's retort, he couldn't control his anger for a moment and forgot the purpose of his trip.
Looking at the petite woman standing in front of him with her hands on her hips, desperately trying to protect him, contrary to her usual well-behaved and lovely appearance, Situ Yao couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips slightly.
Su Mengyan's little appearance with such fierceness is really adorable.
Situ Yao stood up, stretched out his long arms and pulled the person into his arms, "I will discipline my people myself. It is not my brother's business to worry about what she should and should not say."
Su Mengyan's body was a little stiff. She didn't expect Situ Yao to openly protect her in front of Situ Zhao. She was slightly stunned and looked up at his angular profile with some unclear emotions in her eyes.
"What are you staring at? Am I too handsome that you can't take your eyes off me?" Situ Yao lowered his eyes and looked at the dazed look of the person in his arms, and couldn't help but joked.
"Ah... there's someone here!" When Su Mengyan heard him say this, a blush immediately appeared on her cheeks. She felt shy and embarrassed, and tried to break free from his restraints.
But how come this man is so strong? Even if she tried her best, she couldn't break free.
Su Mengyan was slightly annoyed and looked at Situ Yao angrily. The latter raised his eyebrows and looked at her leisurely.
Seeing that the two people in front of him did not take him seriously, Situ Zhao felt a little angry. He did not expect Situ Yao to protect this woman so much. He really underestimated her seductive skills.
Situ Zhao snorted coldly, and without saying anything more, his face turned ashen as he left. He didn't want to see the couple again for even a moment.
"Goodbye, Second Prince. I won't see you off. You're welcome to come often." Even though she was a little annoyed with Situ Yao, Su Mengyan still didn't forget to ridicule Situ Zhao.
Situ Zhao, who had one foot out of the door, paused when he heard the words, then immediately quickened his pace and left, his hands clenched into fists at his sides.
Su Mengyan was so bold and rude to him. That was unforgivable. Even if she was his brother's person, so what? He wanted her to look bad.
