Ningshuang's words did not change the deputy general's expression. To him, she disappeared mysteriously at the time of the wedding, but reappeared safely in Yushi Town. She was at odds with the Queen Mother and others for the sake of Gongsun Zixing. No matter how you look at it, she must be disliked by the prince.
only…..
"Princess!" Zhou Miao's voice suddenly rang out.
At this moment, Zhou Miao, like Nighthawk, is the deputy chief of guards under the chief of guards of the Zhan Wang Mansion. The clothes unique to the deputy chief of guards make people understand his status at a glance. However, the deputy chief of guards of the Zhan Wang Mansion is not that simple. People who come from the military of Yunguang Country all know that the Zhan Wang’s confidants are spread all over the military camps, and the Zhan Wang’s chief of guards can call on all the generals. This deputy chief of guards is equivalent to holding at least half of the troops’ orders in an emergency!
And their will represents the will of the prince. Now, he saluted the princess with great respect and called her the princess! That means that what the maid just said is true!
The deputy general swallowed his saliva and his expression changed. But he heard Zong Zheng Xiaoting smile softly, "Why are you here? Get up."
"Princess, the prince has asked me to wait for the princess in the palace. I have been assigned by the prince to be the chief guard of the princess." Every word Zhou Miao said was about the princess, which made Zong Zheng Xiaoting raise his eyebrows slightly.
It seems that all of this was arranged by Situ Xunxiao long ago. And looking at Zhou Miao's expression, this loyalty is indeed real. What does Situ Xunxiao want to do? The deputy chief of guards makes himself the chief of guards, which means that he has handed over no less than one-third of his military power to himself!
As for Zhou Miao, who just came in in a hurry, it was definitely not a temporary order, but Situ Xunxiao had arranged it this way from the beginning.
"When did Situ Xunxiao make the arrangements? Why didn't I know anything about it?" Although he knew it was inappropriate to ask this at this moment, Zong Zheng Xiaoting had a vague feeling in his heart telling him that if he didn't ask now, he was afraid that some things would change after Situ Xunxiao came back.
"At the wedding banquet yesterday, the prince specifically instructed before he left. The prince also said that if all the princess' orders are contrary to what he wants, the princess' orders must be obeyed." Zhou Miao looked at Zong Zheng Xiaoting's face and always felt that these words needed to be told to the princess. Although he didn't understand why the prince told him not to tell the princess when he gave instructions, he was greatly favored by the prince and knew very well that the princess was resisting him. If the prince had been silently doing a lot for the princess and the princess didn't know, the two of them would probably drift apart. What's more, Nighthawk clearly said that when he and the prince found out the princess's whereabouts, the princess was with Gongsun Zixing. At that time, the prince's face...
Zhou Miao lowered his head, his hands clenched into fists under his sleeves. He went against the prince's wishes, but for the prince, he had no regrets. Since the prince knew where the princess was, he did not come back with her. Princess Yunluo and the prince had been childhood sweethearts, but the princess just said that Princess Yunluo was dead. So, was it because of this different opinion that the prince did not come back with her?
"Okay." Zong Zheng Xiaoting nodded and glanced at the deputy general, "General, do you think that I need you to retreat because I want to save Gongsun Zixing?"
Unexpectedly, the princess still took the matter to heart, and the deputy general was a little worried. "I dare not."
"Whether you dare or not, I don't care. However, I need to remind the generals that even if there is no War King, I still don't need you to give in if I want to save Gongsun Zixing!" Zong Zheng Xiaoting approached step by step, his eyes were very sharp, "The generals under my command and the troops I brought are enough to save Gongsun Zixing. You don't dare because you are afraid of War King. You dare because you despise me."
"Princess, you are too suspicious."
"Really?" Zongzheng Xiaoting raised his eyebrows, "Then do you want to give it a try?"
“I dare not!” After saying that, the deputy general had to take his men and retreat a few steps.
Seeing the deputy general retreat, Qingqing and the others hurriedly followed. "Princess!"
"I'll make it short, all of you listen to me." Zong Zheng Xiaoting said to the people present, "I went to Yushi Town to find something, but I met Gongsun Zixing. The strangest thing is that when I was a guest at Yushi Villa, someone secretly wanted to assassinate me. In order to track down the murderer, Gongsun Zixing was afraid that he was lured away and attacked. I followed the young master of Yushi Villa, but I arrived with Situ Xunxiao and the people sent by the Queen Mother. However, I saw a room full of wolves. The two were in disarray, and Gong Yunluo had committed suicide. However, the most bizarre thing was that the room was colorless and odorless, and Gong Yunfei rushed in, but fainted directly. In other words, there was poison in the room, and it was only when he stepped into the room that he was poisoned. "Zongzheng Xiaoting frowned, "This matter cannot be tolerated by the prince and the queen mother. I want you to protect Gongsun Zixing for me. I will never allow anyone to be plotted against because of me! I even vaguely feel that all this is aimed at me."
It's not murder? It's ****!
Everyone present took a deep breath. It was no wonder that the prince and the queen mother took such actions.
"Wei Zixin, Yuan Xian, you two are accompanying me to marry into Yunguang Country, so you are the only ones who are not afraid of the people of Yunguang Country. I want you to take on this important task." Zong Zheng Xiaoting narrowed his eyes, with murderous intent in his eyes, and said, "If Gongsun Zixing cannot be saved, the next person you will collect the body of will be me."
"Princess!" Wei Zixin and the others knelt down one after another, their eyes full of determination. "Please rest assured, Princess."
"Princess, Zhou Miao can be entrusted with important tasks, but the princess does not trust her subordinates." Zong Zheng Xiaoting instructed Yuan Xian and the others, but did not avoid him. However, he did not arrange anything else for Zhou Miao, which made Zhou Miao look a little ugly.
Zong Zheng Xiaoting looked at Zhou Miao and shook his head slowly. "Zhou Miao, since I have given these instructions to the two generals, but have not left you out, it is natural that I am not suspicious of you. If I were suspicious of you, I would not have asked you to listen here. Stand up and answer."
"Yes!" Zhou Miao stood up, but in his heart, he was even more confused. He looked at Zong Zheng Xiaoting with a puzzled look, "But Princess, why don't you let your subordinates help you?"
"Haha, that's because I have something more important for you to do. And only if you do this, you can protect my safety and get what I want to know as quickly as possible." Zong Zheng Xiaoting smiled. Looking at the plaque on the gate of Prince Zhan's mansion, his brows knitted.
