Chapter 212: There is no return
In the carriage of the Fifth Prince's Mansion.
The Fifth Prince and Xiao Fushu first sent Princess An Ning back to the Regent's Palace, and then the carriage drove towards the Xiao family.
The fifth prince held Xiao Fushu's hand and sighed.
"The Imperial Aunt has gone to study Gu techniques in Southern Xinjiang, and the Imperial Uncle has also returned to his fiefdom. This Regent's Palace has become deserted."
Xiao Fushu listened and nodded in agreement.
"Yes, Princess An Ning is the only one left."
Then he spoke again.
"No, I have to come and accompany Princess An Ning tomorrow. She must be so lonely all alone."
The fifth prince listened and looked at her and spoke.
"Isn't this prince also alone in the Fifth Prince's Mansion?"
"Why don't you come to accompany this prince more often?"
It seems so. How should I put it? After thinking for a moment, Xiao Fushu said.
“This is different.”
"Princess An Ning is still a girl. She and I are like sisters. It's my duty to spend more time with her."
The fifth prince smiled and spoke after hearing this.
"Then this prince is still your fiancé?"
Xiao Fushuo spoke.
"You also said he was your fiancé, but you haven't gotten married yet, have you?"
"After we get married, I will be with you every day, just in case you have a new family around you."
Hearing her words, the Fifth Prince squeezed her fingers.
"Are you starting to get jealous now?"
Xiao Fushu tilted his head to the side.
"Who's jealous?"
Xuanyuan Jing's side.
In the inn.
A man with a figure very similar to Xuanyuan Jing bowed to Xuanyuan Jing.
"Prince Gu Ying."
Xuanyuan Jing looked at him.
Place a box on the table.
"Put on the human skin mask inside. From now on, you are this king. Go to the fiefdom on my behalf. Try to walk slowly on the way."
After hearing this, Lone Ying took the box and spoke respectfully.
"yes."
Xuanyuan Jing glanced at Jiang Yuan.
"You stay by his side and don't make any mistakes."
The prince is going to find the princess, Jiang Yuan bowed and said.
"yes."
Then he looked at Xuanyuan Jing again.
"Your Majesty, I will be away from my fiefdom for a long time. Could you please tell the princess that I can help keep an eye on Liu Yue and bring her a gift when I return?"
I didn't expect that Jiang Yuan would be like this after falling in love with a woman. Xuanyuan Jing glanced at him.
"Look at what you have accomplished."
Jiang Yuan smiled awkwardly.
"Your Majesty, I'm counting on you. Please remember to tell the princess."
Emperor Xuanyuan felt that he couldn't bear to look at him like this anymore, and spoke helplessly.
"It's the end of the year, Liu Yue is very busy, you should put your heart at ease."
Jiang Yuan spoke.
"It's the end of the year that worries me. I don't have much time to spend with Liu Yue, and she's going to be in contact with so many shopkeepers this year. She's beautiful, skilled in martial arts, and good at business. She's the princess's right-hand man, and there are so many people watching her out there. What if someone snatches her away when I return to your fiefdom?"
Xuanyuan Jing just felt a headache.
"Alright, you better accompany Gu Ying to the fiefdom. You know how to handle many things. After you get things done, I will tell the princess about it when we return to the imperial city. I will also give you a portion of your betrothal gift."
Jiang Yuan was delighted to hear this and bowed quickly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty, for your great kindness, I will serve you like a slave for the rest of my life."
Xuanyuan Jing raised his hand and waved upon seeing this.
"Go down, I really see you have a headache."
Jiang Yuan smiled again after hearing this and took out a box from his sleeve.
"Your Highness, I know Liu Yue also went to Yongcheng with the princess this time. I bought this on the street yesterday. Can you bring it to Liu Yue for me?"
Xuanyuan Jing glanced at him. The dignified Regent now wanted to help him bring things to the girl?
"Can't you wait until you return to the Imperial City and give it to her in person?"
Jiang Yuan smiled flatteringly.
"I will bring her another gift when I return."
Xuanyuan Jing sighed. When he picked him up, he didn't know that he would grow up to be such a shameless thing. Although his eyes were full of disgust, he still reached out to take the box.
"Alright, I understand."
Jiang Yuan listened and reminded again.
"Your Highness, women all like little surprises from time to time. I suggest that you bring a gift for the Princess when you go to see Yongcheng. It doesn't matter how expensive the gift is; what matters is that it's from someone you love. Your Highness, your relationship with the Princess is getting better and better. You should also prepare more little surprises for her. If you can make her happy, your relationship will only get better and better. This good relationship needs to be cultivated."
Well, this is happening more and more, Xuanyuan Jing said.
"You don't need to remind me."
"Go down."
Jiang Yuan pursed his lips after hearing this. He didn't need my reminder. A grown man consummated his marriage with the princess because he was drugged. He didn't even know how to take the initiative to make the princess happy. But he couldn't say this. What if he said it, what if the prince didn't help him bring the gift to Liu Yue?
"Yes, I will take my leave now."
After saying that, he gave another worried reminder.
"Your Majesty, please remember to give my things to Liu Yue."
Ningbo City.
In the inn.
Liu Yue bowed to Xiao Fuguang.
"Master, our people have been secretly following Su Yan's team and will report the news at any time."
Xiao Fuguang held a cup of tea and drank it slowly.
"I don't know how long it will take him to eliminate the bandits."
Liu Yue analyzed from the side.
"The Yongcheng prefecture has also sent troops to assist. The imperial court has sent people, so the Yongcheng prefecture will definitely be anxious. With the assistance of local officials, Su Yan should be able to find the bandits' location quickly. However, how long it will take to completely wipe out the bandits depends on Su Yan's ability."
Xiao Fuguang clenched the teacup in his hand.
"This time, I want him to never return. Yongcheng will be his burial place."
