"You..." Cui Mixue was extremely angry. She had finally put aside her status and face and came here to talk about cooperation with them.
However, Su Mengyan didn't give her any face at all. In fact, Cui Mixue forgot that as the Crown Princess, why should Su Mengyan consider Cui Mixue's face?
A loser should have the awareness of a loser, instead of not being able to see the situation clearly when the time comes.
The raised palm went towards Su Mengyan's face. Su Mengyan narrowed her eyes and was shocked. She didn't expect that Cui Mixue would dare to attack her in the East Palace.
Before his hand could fall, it was grabbed by someone, who threw Cui Mixue away. Xuan Ling said coldly: "You are looking for death."
Looking at the person blocking her way, Su Mengyan became anxious.
"Why did you come out? Are you okay?" Su Mengyan asked two questions in a row. Before Xuan Ling could answer her questions, she was busy checking Xuan Ling's wound.
Seeing Su Mengyan so nervous about herself, Xuan Ling's cold expression gradually softened, and his tone also softened: "I'm fine."
It’s no wonder that Su Mengyan was so nervous. It was because Xuan Ling was seriously injured while saving her before, and now, he once again blocked Cui Mixue’s slap for her.
As for Xuan Ling, Su Mengyan felt very guilty about her serious injuries during this period, so she kept an eye on her every day and let her rest.
You know, Xuan Ling knows martial arts and has a good status. Even though he is injured, he can't rest in bed all the time. If he lies in bed for a long time, he always feels that his body is not his own.
That feeling is really uncomfortable.
After staying in bed for a while, Xuan Ling finally realized that Su Mengzhen did not come to supervise him today, so he hurriedly got out of bed and walked around.
It has been a long time since I last went out, and Xuan Ling felt that the air was very sweet.
Hearing the palace maids talking about Cui Mixue coming, Xuan Ling was afraid that Su Mengyan would suffer, so he thought of coming over to take a look.
Who knew that as soon as he came over, he saw Cui Mixue about to take action, so without thinking, Xuan Ling rushed in.
"Didn't I tell you to have a good rest? Why did you get out of bed?" Su Mengyan was relieved to see that Xuan Ling's wound did not split, but she still couldn't help asking Xuan Ling.
Xuan Ling was a little worried, afraid that Su Mengyan would ask him about this, so he quickly changed the subject: "What do you have to say to Cui Mixue?"
Cui Mixue was thrown away by Xuan Ling and staggered, almost falling down. After she finally managed to steady herself, she saw Su Mengyan and Xuan Ling showing their deep affection.
Cui Mixue gritted her teeth in anger. She had never seen Xuan Ling care about her so much before, but now he was so concerned about Su Mengyan.
Thinking of this, Cui Mixue spoke up: "What can I say to him? What can I say to a treacherous person like you?"
Su Mengyan's eyes turned cold as she looked at Cui Mixue and said, "What qualifications do you have to say that about Xuan Ling? Aren't you planning to betray Situ Zhao?"
"Hmph, how can she compare with me? Situ Zhao and I are just partners, but she is a traitor. Bah." As she said that, Cui Mixue spat at Xuan Ling.
This might be the case that those involved are confused but those who are not involved can see things more clearly! Su Mengyan thought.
"Crown Princess, this matter is about the grudge between her and me. I will solve it." Seeing this, Xuan Ling stopped Su Mengyan.
Every wrong has its perpetrator, and since Xuan Ling wants to solve it herself, let her do it herself!
"It's time to end this between you and me." After saying that, he suddenly jumped up and grabbed Cui Mixue's neck: "Today, I will take your life."
Cui Mixue was no match for Xuan Ling and was caught off guard.
The air gradually became thinner and breathing became more difficult.
Cui Mixue's eyes gradually turned white, and she kept patting Xuan Ling's arms with her hands, hoping to save herself.
But how could Xuan Ling let go just because of a little pain? She was determined to kill Cui Mixue.
A hand touched Xuan Ling's shoulder: "Just teach her a lesson, let her go!"
It was Su Mengyan. She didn't want Xuan Ling's hands to be stained with Cui Mixue's blood. Anyway, Cui Mixue would die sooner or later, so why rush it?
Xuan Ling let go of her hand. She had no objection to Su Mengyan's sudden mercy.
Breathing in deep gulps of fresh air, Cui Mixue felt that if she was a moment later she would see the King of Hell.
"You go."
Situ Yao returned to the East Palace and hurried to Su Mengyan.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Su Mengyan looked at Situ Yao and asked.
If there wasn't something urgent, Situ Yao would never act like this.
Situ Yao pulled Su Mengyan to sit down, let out a breath and said, "Look at this." Then he took out a letter from his sleeve.
Su Mengyan took the letter with curiosity, unfolded it, and saw that it said: Bandits appeared to the north of Xi'an, causing heavy losses.
He looked at Situ Yao in confusion, as if asking what was going on?
Yes, it was a sentence without a beginning or an end, and no one knew what it meant. However, Su Mengyan also realized that the main content was that bandits appeared.
"There are bandits in Xi'an. How did the news reach you?" No wonder Su Mengyan was curious. After all, every place has its own officials, and the news was delivered in the form of a letter, so it should not have been sent by officials from the court.
Sure enough, Situ Yao explained that this was the letter Bai Yun'an sent him today, and the writer was someone from Bai Yun'an's clan.
This is also the reason why Bai Yun'an looked for him. Because the bandits appeared and caused those people to suffer heavy losses, Bai Yun'an thought of Situ Yao.
With Situ Yao's identity, attacking those bandits was just a matter of an order.
After understanding the cause and effect of the matter, Su Mengyan was silent for a moment before speaking: "What do you think?"
No matter how you look at it, Bai Yun'an needs Situ Yao's help in this matter, and the most important thing is Situ Yao's thoughts.
But Situ Yao did not tell her what he thought, but just asked Su Mengyan what to do? Su Mengyan saw that Situ Yao wanted to know her thoughts.
After thinking about it for a while, I said, "I think we can help with this."
Situ Yao said "oh" and looked at Su Mengyan and asked her to continue.
"The rumors outside are almost spreading. If you can wipe out the bandits at this time, those ministers who want to oppose will have nothing to say."
Yes, suppressing bandits is a big deal and a good thing for the people. If there is such an achievement, Situ Yao's status will be further elevated.
"Hahaha, the one who understands me is Yan'er. I think so too." Situ Yao hugged her in his arms, full of joy.
The reason why Situ Yao was happy was that the two people had the same ideas. He felt that Su Mengyan was indeed a person who understood the overall situation.
"The question now is, should I go out to suppress the bandits myself or ask one of my generals to do it?" Situ Yao thought about this for a whole day.
No matter who goes, the credit will belong to Situ Yao, that's for sure. However, he thinks it might be better if he goes himself.
