Yu Shuo didn't know what Qin Su was planning to do in Kyoto, but he vaguely felt that it was related to Xue Huai'an.
What exactly did Xue Huai'an do to make Su Su hate him so much?
"Hey, what are you daydreaming about?" Qin Su had been talking for a while, but she was quite surprised when the person behind her didn't respond. Usually, Yu Shuo would respond to her, except when it came to matters of the heart, as he was a bit shy and would choose to remain silent.
Yu Shuo snapped out of his daze and shook his head.
Qin Su didn't blame him. Just then, she spotted a gray rabbit, immediately drew her bow, aimed at the rabbit, and hit it with a single shot!
Lian Tao immediately went to pick it up, and Qin Su turned her head and smiled, "It seems that my archery skills haven't deteriorated."
Suddenly, an arrow shot from the side, and Lian Tao quickly rolled away to dodge it.
Unexpectedly, Qin Su didn't have time to speak with Yu Shuo. She immediately dismounted to check on Lian Tao, "How are you? Are you hurt?"
Lian Tao shook her head. "It's alright. The princess is wonderful! Who knows, we might be able to roast a rabbit today!"
Seeing Lian Tao's smile, Qin Su couldn't smile at all.
That arrow was clearly aimed at Lian Tao.
"Oh~ Isn't this Princess Consort Chen? I wasn't paying attention just now, I didn't mean to shoot your maid."
The arrogant and annoying voice came from not far away.
Qin Su felt it was somewhat familiar, but not much.
I feel like I've heard that name somewhere before, but I really can't remember where.
"I originally saw a rabbit, but then a person suddenly appeared. You can't blame me for this."
She rode over on horseback, dressed in a fiery red outfit, which was quite flamboyant.
Qin Su still couldn't remember who this person was.
But that doesn't matter; there are very few people in Kyoto that she can't afford to offend right now.
Qin Su turned and headed towards the direction of flattery.
The woman paused for a moment, frowning in confusion, not understanding what Qin Su was trying to do.
With her fiery temper, wouldn't she have rushed over and beaten her up? Has her personality changed drastically now?
Before she could figure it out, Qin Su nocked an arrow and aimed at the woman.
"Qin Su! What do you want to do?! How dare you!" The woman was clearly flustered, and the horse was restless under her emotional turmoil.
"Your Highness." Lian Tao shook her head at Qin Su, holding a rabbit in one hand.
However, Qin Su ignored Lian Tao's words and released the arrow, which quickly shot towards the opponent.
"ah--"
"Princess!"
There was chaos over there. The woman in red riding attire tumbled off her horse and rolled several times on the grass. Her hair was cut off by her ear, and a faint scratch appeared on her cheek.
"Princess, Princess, are you alright?" The maid helped her up, but she shoved the maid aside and pointed at Qin Su angrily, "You, how dare you treat me like this! Do you really think you can rest easy just because you married Prince Chen?!"
Qin Su slung the bow and arrows behind her back, her eyes cold yet sharp. "Even if I weren't the Princess Consort of Chen, I could still shoot you."
That's what she said, but Qin Su was thinking in her mind, wondering which princess this so-called princess was.
In the capital, besides Prince Chen, there are two other princes, but neither of them is married, so where would they get a daughter?
Speaking of dukes and marquises, it seems that only she was granted the title of princess; the others were not.
As for those outside the capital... well, they are all imperial uncles or higher-ranking officials who rarely return to the capital.
Could it be that one of the imperial uncles returned to the capital without making a fuss?
"Guards, seize her and bring her to me!"
The people she brought were aggressive and completely disregarded Qin Su Chen's status as a princess.
Even when Lian Tao tossed the rabbit to Chongyang, who was not far away, she was also on high alert.
With her around, her daughter never needs to lift a finger.
"When the princess returns, she'll be nothing but a bunch of small fry." Lian Tao cracked her knuckles, clearly eager to seize this opportunity to make a name for herself.
Qin Su really didn't want to do it herself; she was pregnant and wanted to minimize any strenuous activity.
"Just a maidservant, yet she speaks so arrogantly. Like master, like servant!"
"Bring her along too!"
After the woman finished speaking, all the people surrounding Lian Tao attacked. Lian Tao was strong and had been trained by Qin Su, making her far superior to ordinary servants and guards.
None of these people got anything good out of her.
Qin Su returned to Yu Shuo's side and asked softly, "Does Ziyu know this person?"
Yu Shuo nodded, "She is the daughter of the King of Yangcheng, and an adopted daughter."
Qin Su was stunned. How could an adopted daughter have such courage?
King Yangcheng... Qin Su only wanted to recall this person, but found that she knew very little about him.
I've only heard of such an imperial uncle who went to his fiefdom after the late emperor ascended the throne and didn't return to the capital for many years.
Why did his daughter suddenly come to Kyoto?
Just then, all of Princess Yangcheng's men had been knocked to the ground by Lian Tao.
She flew into a rage, shouting, "I'll tell my father, and he'll make you pay!"
Qin Su scoffed, "Are you still breastfeeding? You complain about everything that happens."
"You!" Princess Yangcheng wanted to refute Qin Su, but couldn't find the words to say.
It was only then that she noticed the man beside Qin Su, and she immediately froze on the spot.
"Ziyu, cousin Ziyu." She lowered her head, hesitating like a little girl.
Qin Su looked at her, then at Yu Shuo, and seemed to understand, then chuckled.
"I said we have no grudges against each other, so why are you targeting me? It turns out you've got your eye on my man."
Princess Yangcheng blushed immediately, fidgeting with her hands, but secretly glared at Qin Su, yelling wildly, "What nonsense are you spouting?! Rude! Utterly despicable!"
Yu Shuo's face was ashen, and he snapped, "Apologize to your cousin's wife!"
Princess Yangcheng screamed, "She's not my cousin-in-law! She's just a country bumpkin! What right does she have to be my cousin-in-law! What right does she have to marry you?"
Qin Su shook her head, finding this kind of girlish stuff really boring.
She patted Yu Shuo on the shoulder, "You brought this upon yourself, so you'll have to deal with it."
She led the horse, called to Lian Tao, and prepared to leave.
Yu Shuo stepped forward and grabbed Qin Su's hand to stop her from leaving. He turned to Princess Yangcheng and said, "Since Prince Yangcheng doesn't know how to discipline his daughter, I don't mind doing it for him."
"Chongyang. Bring the person before His Majesty and punish him for the crime of plotting to murder the Princess Consort of Chen."
“Cousin Ziyu!” Princess Yangcheng was clearly unconvinced. She couldn’t understand why Yu Shuo would side with Qin Su. Clearly… Qin Su was just a female bandit! What right did she have?
"Please address me by my title."
"Furthermore, what you should be most worried about is the consequences of plotting to harm Princess Chen."
He led the horse with one hand and Qin Su with the other, leaving the sight of Princess Yangcheng.
...
Qin Su felt that Yu Shuo seemed unhappy, no, he should be said to be very unhappy.
But... shouldn't it be like this? I should be the one who's unhappy about this.
He's having affairs, and he's not happy about it.
Standing in the shade of the tree, Yu Shuo held Qin Su's hand, looked at her with a dark face, and his eyes were full of accusation.
But Qin Su really didn't understand what he was accusing her of.
Shouldn't you be the one criticizing him?
