Just as Xiao Tang was about to speak, she glanced at Ning Cang outside the door.
[Emma, he was staring at my clothes. I've been caught! I'm doomed.]
She was in such a hurry that she didn't bother to change her clothes.
How unlucky I was to get hit by that!
While Ning Shanyue was still in fear, she caught a glimpse of her brother out of the corner of her eye and hurriedly rushed towards Ning Cang.
He huddled behind Ning Cang.
"Brother, help me!"
Ning Cang patted his sister's head, but his gaze remained fixed on Xiao Tang.
A chill ran through his deep gaze.
Xiao Tang met his gaze and inwardly cried out, "Oh no, this is terrible!"
My wrist felt warm.
She was led by the hand by the main villain.
She looked up in surprise, her gaze meeting Di Jingling's.
Slowly, she said softly, "Husband, what do you think?"
She thought the man must have already made up his mind, but to her surprise, he said, "I'll do whatever you say."
Who would believe that these words came from the mouth of a cruel and ruthless villain?
He said this as docilely as a big cat.
Xiao Tang's mouth opened slightly, showing a hint of surprise.
[My dear son, you've suddenly become so well-behaved, it caught me completely off guard. Let's stop with all that charades, can't we just be good like this?]
She turned her head and said, "Let's go find her apprentice first. Since he's from the Ministry of Personnel, let's go there and identify him one by one."
They avoided the main villain's burning gaze.
This man is toxic.
Their eyes are electrifying.
A casual glance from you feels like it could burn your heart.
She avoided his gaze, and the man lowered his eyes, concealing the darkness in them, and softly hummed in agreement: "Whatever you say."
His tone was soft and low.
His obedient tone made Xiao Tang want to pet him.
Grandma Chen looked up at the couple and was taken aback.
The guards entered the room and took her out.
Di Jingling was holding Xiao Tang's hand as they were about to leave for the Ministry of Personnel.
He ended up facing off against Ning Cang and Ning Shanyue.
Ning Shanyue shrank behind Ning Cang, already terrified, not to mention that she was now overwhelmed by the Regent's powerful aura and dared not utter a sound.
Ning Cang remained remarkably calm. His gaze swept over Xiao Tang, and his thin lips moved slightly, but he asked nothing.
"Make way." That was the indifferent tone of Di Jingling.
Ning Cang lowered his eyes and silently stepped aside.
As Xiao Tang passed by him, she vaguely sensed that he seemed very sad...?
Go to the Ministry of Personnel to identify Granny Chen's apprentice.
Currently, all military power in the Great Sheng Kingdom is in the hands of Emperor Jingling. Even though the Yang family also holds one-third of the military power, Yang Defu is his man, so there is no difference.
Grandma Chen turned her head and glanced at it.
His expression was a bit strange.
She knew that if she were identified, she might die...
"Why aren't you saying anything?" Di Jingling asked impatiently.
In short, it was a powerful statement.
No one dared to utter a sound.
Xiao Tang was also a little annoyed, especially since Granny Chen's eyes were darting around, making her look like she was up to no good.
Take a closer look at this old lady Chen.
Just then, I saw her strange gaze sweep over one of the burly men, winking and making faces at him.
"Since you refuse to talk, then kill him." Di Jingling said impatiently, "If no one comes forward to claim him..."
At his command, the burly man looked troubled and conflicted.
Perhaps they were also thinking about the safety of their master...
In his anxiety, he clenched his hands, which were hanging at his sides, into fists.
[It was you! And you were glancing around like that! Tsk tsk tsk, big brother, you're practically giving yourself away!]
[Big brother, you're so strong, you weren't fed with some kind of Gu poison, were you?]
After much thought, she realized that the only reason Granny Chen would accept him as her disciple was probably because he was merely a tool for cultivating Gu poison.
The body's constitution is suitable for cultivating Gu poison, which is perfect.
Otherwise, why would a stingy old lady like Granny Chen suddenly take on an apprentice?
Xiao Tang stretched out her hand and pointed at the big man.
"It's him, search for him."
Di Jingling gave Yan Jiu a meaningful look.
Not only Yan Jiu went forward to search, but the other guards also followed and searched at the same time.
Five or six people surrounded the big man.
The big man panicked.
He thought he was doomed and hurriedly shouted, "I, I'll give it to you, it's right here in my house!"
The guards who were searching all stopped what they were doing.
Xiao Tang raised her delicately curved chin and instructed, "That's perfect. Go and get it. I'll give you half an hour. Is that enough?"
"Of course, you can go over time, but if you anger my husband, then don't blame me."
Little did he know that these words caused the man beside him to slightly curl the corners of his lips.
He was very happy, especially by the words "my home".
The big man quickly turned around.
Less than half an hour later, the man returned, trembling as he presented a brocade box.
"Your Highness, Regent, please take a look."
He swallowed hard.
He was shaking like a sieve.
Xiao Tang took the brocade box, opened it, glanced at it, and was extremely satisfied. "Not bad, these are the medicinal herbs I wanted."
...
In the end, the big man was out of danger.
Granny Chen was escorted out of the borders of the Great Sheng Dynasty and was ordered by the Regent to never set foot in the Great Sheng Kingdom again.
Back at the Regent's Palace, Xiao Tang originally wanted to explain things to Di Jingling, but to her surprise, he didn't want to listen to her explanation at all and went to his study and stayed inside.
Xiao Tang was turned away and stared at the closed door, scratching his nose in frustration.
He's angry? Why? Tell me why?
