Shen Changji turned his head and pulled her hand into his arms.
"You can't bear to part with me?"
He looked down at her, his cool eyes filled with anticipation.
Su Miao looked up to meet his gaze, but did not speak.
Looking at her obedient appearance, Shen Changji bent down slightly, touched her slightly cool forehead, and placed a kiss on it.
"Wait here for me to come back."
After he finished speaking, his gaze lingered on Su Miao's slightly reddened lips, and he couldn't help but kiss her again.
Even though he was being urged to hurry up outside, a small gesture from her could make him stop for a moment.
Perhaps it was fate that he stayed for her.
"good."
His deep, quiet voice was barely audible.
When he released Su Miao, Chen Changji turned around, took several deep breaths, and then walked out.
He never knew he was so sensitive that a single kiss from her could trigger an inappropriate reaction.
Shen Changji was worried that what had just happened would frighten Su Miao, so before leaving he asked Tao'er to prepare hot soup.
When he stepped outside, Lone Eagle had already prepared his horse and was waiting for him.
Chen Changji regained his usual coldness and spurred his horse onward toward the palace.
Doga was captured, his stronghold was completely destroyed, and all the injured women and boys were rescued.
When Liu Jiaojiao heard the news, a sad smile appeared on her lips.
If she had been a little more composed... wouldn't the situation have been different?
Perhaps if we had waited a little longer, she wouldn't have ended up in this situation.
"Su Miao... Hehehe, you think you've really won? No! I don't believe it! Why should you..."
Liu Jiaojiao's eyes reddened, and tears streamed down her face.
Why...
Liu Jiaojiao slumped down in the prison cell, her hair disheveled, completely unlike her previous glamorous appearance.
With a creak, the iron gate next to her opened, and Liu Jiaojiao looked over.
Doga was brought in.
"I thought you were going to turn the tables..."
Doga sneered, "I thought so too."
If Liu Jiaojiao had remained calm at the time, he could have recruited more people, and later, with the addition of the King of Qin's men, he could have turned the tables when the time was right.
He's already in this state, so the King of Qin won't be in much better shape.
This matter caused quite a stir in the palace.
Even though the King of Qin argued that his relationship with Doja was not deep, the emperor did not believe him.
With all these facts laid bare before him, he was no fool; he wouldn't allow such a scoundrel to sit on the throne!
As a remnant of a foreign race, Doga could not be spared and was executed on the same day.
As for Liu Jiaojiao, the emperor entrusted her to his disposal because of her previous marriage agreement with Shen Changji.
The King of Qin was stripped of his title and reduced to a commoner. He was exiled and all those associated with him were to be thoroughly investigated.
The emperor entrusted this matter to Prince Qi and Shen Changji.
The Empress Dowager was tending to the flowers and plants when she heard about this and couldn't help but shake her head.
The struggle for the crown prince position is always a bloody battle... She had seen this kind of situation before.
Upon hearing Shen Changji's name, she couldn't help but recall how Old Madam Shen had frequently mentioned this girl named "Su Miao" when they corresponded.
She put down the scissors in her hand and asked in a calm voice, "I've heard that the Lady Su is quite skilled in medicine?"
"Yes, I heard that she contributed a lot during the epidemic, so His Majesty bestowed upon her the title of County Princess," said Granny An.
"I am a little curious, bring me the portrait to see."
"yes!"
The nanny received Su Miao's portrait around noon and handed it to the Empress Dowager as soon as she returned.
She assumed it was just a young girl, so she didn't pay much attention.
But when she opened the portrait and saw the pair of eyes in it, she was instantly astonished.
With a "thud," the painting slipped directly from the Empress Dowager's hands and rolled to the ground...
