Xuan Ling was almost recovered, and thought it would be bad if he didn't see the sun for a long time, so he wanted to go out for some fresh air, but he didn't expect to see Cui Mixue.
The two of them suddenly became nervous. No one spoke, but they communicated with their eyes.
Looking around, all the soldiers went to the mountains with Situ Yao to suppress the bandits, leaving only a small number. That small number was not paying attention to the two of them at the moment. They were trying hard to find Su Mengyan.
Xuan Ling also saw this scene and knew what the woman in front of him was thinking, so he walked towards the woods.
After staying for a while, Cui Mixue also walked in the direction where Xuan Ling had been before. The two of them walked in the same direction, one in front and the other behind.
"Master." Xuan Ling lowered his head and his expression could not be seen clearly.
Cui Mixue snorted coldly and said, "Be mindful of your identity when you are out there. Don't call me Master unless there is a special situation."
"Yes." Xuan Ling responded repeatedly, but Cui Mixue still felt it was not enough.
"Today, stay hidden by the Crown Prince's side. In the future, as long as the Crown Prince is overthrown, you will be rich and powerful."
After Cui Mixue finished speaking, the two of them left the bamboo forest one after the other. Xuan Ling looked at Cui Mixue's departing back, thinking about something in his heart.
On the mountain.
The boss sat in the seat of honor, and Situ Yao did not exalt himself, and sat in the second seat with Su Mengyan. Only then did the boss's expression ease a lot.
At least the other party showed that they were sincere in discussing the issue of surrender, and he would seriously consider the matter for the sake of everyone on the mountain.
"Your Highness, I'm a rough man, so I'll tell you what I'm saying. My family was once harmonious, but that bastard official tore it all apart! I don't ask for anything else, I just want an explanation for what happened back then."
The boss spoke with great emphasis and a resolute tone. He looked at the changes in Situ Yao. If there was even a hint of dissatisfaction, there would be no room for negotiation on the deal.
Situ Yao thought it was not an excessive request. Besides, there were problems with the local officials. As the crown prince of the current dynasty, he naturally could not allow such a parasite to continue.
"Of course, since I am the crown prince, I will investigate this thoroughly, even if the boss doesn't want to surrender!"
As soon as Situ Yao said this, the boss laughed three times and said "good" three times in a row.
"Your Highness, what a great thing to say about the country and the people. I am too petty and presumptuous."
As he spoke, the servant beside him handed over a cup of tea. Situ Yao was caught off guard and drank it in one gulp. Then he showed the bottom of the cup to the boss.
"Don't say that, Boss. You are not a villain, and I am not a gentleman either. We are just getting rid of harm for the people."
As soon as these words were spoken, the two sides exchanged glances, and the matter was concluded.
Su Mengyan went out as soon as the two of them started chatting.
One of these two people was a prince, and the other was from a business background. They were arguing with each other and playing Tai Chi, so she simply left the group chat early.
Besides, I am still thinking about Chu Meng. It is not easy for the little girl, and I can't let her become autistic.
When I first arrived at Chu Meng's boudoir, it was exactly as Su Mengyan had imagined.
Chu Meng, who was already frail, was curled up in a corner of the bed, burying herself against the wall.
The windows all around were closed and the bed curtains were drawn, making it look like no light could be seen.
"Chu Meng?" Su Mengyan asked in a low voice. The other party shuddered all over, as if responding to Su Mengyan.
Chu Meng turned around carefully, and when she saw that it was Su Mengyan, her vigilance eased a little.
"What are you doing here? Have the people outside left?"
Seeing that she was very careful with every word she spoke, Su Mengyan simply boldly opened the bed curtain and sat next to her.
"Yes, your father is going to discuss the matter of recruiting the prince, there is no fight."
"But." Chu Meng wanted to say something, but stopped when the words came to her lips.
Su Mengyan felt distressed by this. She was usually not good at guessing what other people were thinking, so she spoke frankly.
"What's the big deal? Just tell me directly. There are not many people who can listen to you like this."
Chu Meng's pupils trembled slightly. Although such a statement was indeed a bit hurtful, it was indeed true.
She pursed her slightly pale lips and said, "If Daddy surrenders, what should I do next..."
After all, after what happened, she fell into autism.
This mountain has become her home, and she has become accustomed to the care given to her by the people around her.
Chu Meng couldn't guarantee that she would get sick again after suddenly changing her environment.
If she were to be despised by the world, she couldn't guarantee whether she could survive even for her father, and even that man would get married and leave her.
Su Mengyan was also confused at this time. She didn't understand what Chu Meng's heart knot was.
But as Situ Yao said, since she chose to take care of this matter, she will definitely take care of it to the end.
"Then are you willing to come to the palace with me? Although life won't be as carefree as it is outside, at least you'll be working for me and won't have to worry about other people's opinions."
Su Mengyan asked in a low voice, waiting for Chu Meng's opinion.
She actually thought about bringing Chu Meng along, which would undoubtedly cause her a thankless task, but she absolutely could not give up on her just like that.
"May I?"
Chu Meng also looked at her cautiously, as Su Mengyan's appearance was too sudden.
Even why I was willing to approach her and choose to trust her was a little puzzling.
But if possible, she doesn't want to live in a daze like this.
