The appearance of Gongsun Zixing made Zongzheng Xiaoting feel like he had been saved, and he looked at him with shining eyes.

Gongsun Zixing raised his long arm and pulled Zongzheng Xiaoting into his arms. "Prince Zhan should know that men and women should not touch each other. Moreover, in my eyes, I cannot tolerate any sand in my eyes. Even if my fiancée is trying to escape from the palace, you should not touch her like this if you want to question her, right?"

Gongsun Zixing looked at Situ Xunxiao and nodded to him calmly and elegantly, "What do you suspect, Your Majesty? I am happy to answer."

"Zixing..." Zongzheng Xiaoting immediately cooperated, calling Gongsun Zixing's name in a soft tone like a spoiled child, and then said in a gesture: "Your Highness thinks Qingqing loves money more than anything else, and you can't possibly look down on me who has such ulterior motives."

At this moment, Zong Zheng Xiaoting only hinted at Gongsun Zixing's own name at the right time, which was why she acted this way. However, from the moment she called him Zixing and then called herself Qingqing, all of this sounded overly intimate to Situ Xunxiao.

"I see." Gongsun Zixing smiled as he looked at the woman who naturally raised his wrist. He understood and said, "But, Your Majesty, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. It's not uncommon. In my opinion, she is much better than those who hide their true nature."

Watching the two of them singing in unison, Situ Xunxiao felt a surge of anxiety in his heart.

"I have no interest in knowing what happened between you two." Situ Xunxiao said with disdain, "What I care about is where the second princess Zong Zheng Xiaoting went. Are you covering up for the princess to escape from marriage?"

"You are just making pointless remarks. Only the prince would say that. If our princess doesn't want to, why would she need to marry someone else? As the emperor loves the princess, why not marry someone else?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting retorted, "In my opinion, you are just a stingy person. You are the one who feels sorry for the money you gave me."

Silver?

While Gongsun Zixing was puzzled, he heard Zongzheng Xiaoting said angrily: "Isn't it just a few hundred taels? What's the big deal? I risked my life to save you, a few hundred taels is not enough for you. You are such a stingy person..."

A few hundred taels? Just?!

At this moment, Gongsun Zixing seemed to understand why the arrogant God of War would pick a fight with such a little girl. To be able to get so much money from him as a thank-you gift, I'm afraid it was more of blackmail, right?

Listening to Zong Zheng Xiaoting's mumblings and complaints, Gongsun Zixing also guessed a general idea.

However, he also glanced at Situ Xunxiao. Although he tried his best to suppress the confusion in his eyes, it was still visible. The eyes of the God of War were strange, and I'm afraid not many people dared to look directly at them.

Gongsun Zixing curled the corner of his mouth. It seemed that the God of War King was somewhat interested in this woman.

"If Your Majesty thinks Qingqing shouldn't have done this, I am willing to give you this silver..."

"Shut up!" Situ Xunxiao shouted, "You two are in cahoots with each other. I can only think that you are deliberately stalling for time."

"So what do you want?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting was obviously worn out with patience. He had been trembling with fear all the way in order to escape, and last night, he was also busy and sleepless. He was already mentally tense, and because of the man in front of him, he had unnecessary use of tracking powder, which made his escape all night long. At this moment, he was already exhausted, and he was still entangled here!

Zong Zheng Xiaoting's reaction surprised the two people present.

However, no one expected that in just such a short period of time, Zong Zheng Xiaoting had already pulled out the sword from Gongsun Zixing's side and reached for his neck.

"What are you going to do?" Two voices sounded at the same time.

"My Lord Zhan, there is no point in talking to you if we don't agree. Since you think we have hidden the princess, and that's why you keep pressing us and are unwilling to help us, then, we are going to die anyway, so who is afraid of whom?" The determination in Zongzheng Xiaoting's eyes was seen by Situ Xunxiao and Gongsun Zixing with different shocks.

At this moment, traces of blood had already appeared on Zong Zheng Xiaoting's neck. If he tried to snatch the sword, he would definitely get hurt.

Gongsun Zixing was really shocked. He knew clearly that the so-called unwillingness was just a lie. If it was a lie, then the woman was very eager to survive. However, she was willing to die if she wanted to survive.

It is indeed not easy to be so bold and daring.

However, Situ Xunxiao felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

For this man, are you so disregarding your own safety? Would you rather die than be together?

"Do you think you can threaten me?" Situ Xunxiao said with gritted teeth.

"Haha, Your Highness, you think too much." Zong Zheng Xiaoting laughed wantonly and sneered, "I dare not think highly of myself. In the eyes of the almighty Prince Zhan, a lowly servant like me, whether alive or dead, is not worth mentioning. I understand this very well. How could I overestimate my own abilities and think that I can threaten you with death? But..."

Zong Zheng Xiaoting held the sword in confrontation, looking at Situ Xunxiao fearlessly, "Since Your Majesty is so sure that the princess must be with me, then I will die as a warning so that Zixing will not be implicated. Do you think that doing this is for your dignity?"

"Qingqing, don't do anything stupid." Gongsun Zixing cooperated and quickly replied.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting secretly admired that Gongsun Zixing really knew how to arrange the steps to get off the stage.

“Zixing, if I had known earlier that I would implicate you if I came to see you before escaping in the chaos, I would rather die than have such a result. We are not destined to meet in this life, we...see each other in the next life!” As soon as Zong Zheng Xiaoting finished speaking, he slightly moved the sword away from his neck, as if to gain leverage, but he suddenly dropped the sword and knitted his brows, pretending to be paralyzed, and fell to the ground.

"Qingqing!" Gongsun Zixing quickly supported Zongzheng Xiaoting, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, it's just... the poison has taken effect." Zong Zheng Xiaoting shook his head weakly, then quietly closed his eyes and pretended to faint.

"It's okay. I'll take you back. I'll take you back right now." Gongsun Zixing acted out his worry vividly. He picked up Zongzheng Xiaoting and ran away quickly, ignoring Situ Xunxiao.

Situ Xunxiao stayed where he was, looking at the sword thrown on the ground. The sword was just a tiny bit of red, which seemed to be blinding.

The phantom hidden in the dark finally appeared beside him, "My Lord, the person has left. Should we chase him?"

Chase? In Situ Xunxiao's mind, Zong Zheng Xiaoting's every word of request kept appearing.

"Forget it, finding the second princess is the most important thing." Situ Xunxiao shook his head, turned around and was about to leave, but then stopped, "Meiying, send someone to secretly monitor her."

"Yes!" Phantom looked at his master's leaving figure and clenched his fists tightly.
