When the servant boy heard this, he frowned and took a step forward, wanting to lift up the cloak of Xu Miaomiao who was held by Ah Da, but Ah Da stopped him and said, "General Hou Yuan, no matter how noble you are, you should think about it. I am from Nangong Mansion. I am just looking for a good woman for our general. You won't even agree to this."
General Hou Yuan darkened his eyes and immediately said, "Everyone knows that Nangong Xianggong is the most dedicated to his duties. He once promised that he would never marry until the world is at peace. How could he be greedy for women? I think the person you like is definitely not bad, so why not bring her to our prince's mansion first, so that the prince can also enjoy such a stunning beauty."
When Ah Da heard this, his eyes turned cold and he clenched the sword in his hand, as if he was ready to fight with the man in front of him at any time. Suddenly, a sedan chair appeared behind him, and everyone's attention was attracted. They saw the dark blue sedan chair came steadily over and stopped in front of them. The sedan bearer in front lowered the sedan chair. The man's slender fingertips stretched out from the curtain and slowly lifted the top of his head. A young man in a jade crown and bright yellow clothes slowly walked over.
Seeing this scene, everyone immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Seeing this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince waved his hand and everyone stood up.
When he saw the man in front of him, General Hou Yuan immediately stepped forward and said, "Today I am here to search the Song Mansion on the orders of His Highness, but who would have thought that General A Da, who is beside Nangong Xianggong, would want to secretly take a woman away. I really couldn't bear it and wanted to stop him, but Nangong Xianggong threatened me with the reputation of the Nangong Mansion. Your Highness, please make the decision on this matter."
Hearing this, Ah Da frowned slightly, and immediately stepped forward and bowed to the Crown Prince. He wanted to continue to speak, but the Crown Prince stretched out his hand to stop Ah Da from speaking. Just when Ah Da thought that the Crown Prince would not let him go, the man frowned and patted the folding fan in his hand. Then Ah Da continued to speak: "I will blame you later. Do you admit your guilt?"
When General Hou Yuan heard this, he immediately knelt on the ground and clasped his hands together.
His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, kept scanning him with a sharp gaze, but he did not understand why, so he said, "I am only following the order of His Royal Highness to come and search the Song Mansion, I do not know what crime I have committed."
Seeing the situation, His Highness immediately said, "Mr. Nangong is a loyal minister. Now he just wants a woman, and a woman from the mansion of a criminal. What's wrong with that? You are so stubborn that you even dare to criticize Mr. Nangong's people. How can you realize that your life is too long? Don't you want to live anymore?"
When General Hou Yuan heard this, he immediately knelt on the ground, bowed to the person in front of him, and said, "It's Hou Yuan's fault. Please don't take it to heart, Mr. Da."
Ah Da suddenly frowned, and immediately bowed to His Royal Highness, saying, "To be honest, Your Highness, my general has admired this woman for a long time. He fell in love with her when he came to the Song Mansion before, but who would have thought that Madam Xu and Mr. Song were so distressed that they refused to let her go. Now I can only take this opportunity to take her away. Thank you, Your Royal Highness, for what happened today."
"It's okay, it's okay." The man shook his head, and the folding fan in his hand also swayed. He looked at the man in front of him and said, "It's just a little maid. You can take her away if you want. But I hope General A will pay attention in the future. From now on, there will be no Mr. Song. There will only be the criminals Song Wushao and Nan Ming."
"Yes, I will follow the orders of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
A Da immediately turned around and left, carrying Xu Miaomiao. The name that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had just mentioned was the name of the Fifth Prince. When our prince was born, Tiandai Yixiang gave him the most inconspicuous name because of his humble status. The Crown Prince's name was Nanhui, which showed that the current emperor treated the two of them differently. But A Da didn't think about it, and immediately carried Xu Miaomiao and walked quickly towards Nangong Mansion.
Looking at Ah Da's departing figure, Hou Yuan was somewhat puzzled. He stood up, bowed to the Crown Prince, and said, "Your Highness, you knew who that person was, why did you let him go like this?"
Nan Hui shook his head and looked at the two people going away with a strange look in his eyes. He slowly said, "Now, we still cannot do without the help of Nangong Mansion. He is just a man from the mansion. How big a storm can he stir up? Since Nangong Jin wants me to do him a favor, it will also let him know who he is and who the Nangong family should be loyal to."
When he said this, Nan Hui, who had just been a modest gentleman, suddenly changed his expression. The cunning and viciousness in his eyes made Hou Yuan beside him sigh, but he could only salute the man in front of him and said, "Your Highness is really a good planner. Hou Yuan should learn from him."
Nan Hui stared in the direction of Xu Miaomiao with dim eyes, silent. In the end, he didn't say anything. After A Da rescued Xu Miaomiao, he ran all the way with Xu Miaomiao. When he saw the trace of Nangong Mansion, he breathed a sigh of relief and immediately took Xu Miaomiao to Nangong Mansion.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Nangong Jin hurriedly coming over. When he saw Ah Da, he immediately put Xu Miaomiao down from his shoulders. Ah Da then looked at Nangong Jin and responded immediately, saying, "Mr. Nangong, you didn't know that you met the Crown Prince when you came out."
"Did His Royal Highness say anything?"
Nangong Jin's expression darkened, and A'da told Nangong Jin everything that had just happened. Nangong Jin immediately helped Xu Miaomiao to the bed and settled her down. Then he talked to A'da: "Now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to sit firmly in the court, he will definitely not have anything to do with my Nangong family. The most important thing for us is to wait for Madam Xu to wake up and send her to a safe place. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince uses this matter to threaten us again in the future, I'm afraid it won't work. A'da, from now on, you will always follow Madam Xu and guard her closely."
"How can I do this? It's already a troubled time, and I'm not by your side. What should I do if something happens to you? Besides, old husband Nangong has retired and is living out his days by the lake. You're the only one at home, and I'm not with you. How can you deal with these evil spirits?"
