"It's you!" Jing Yuchen was surprised.
Zou Yangyao proudly blocked the entrance of the prison van: "What, you don't accept it? If you have the guts, just stay inside and don't come out!"
Jing Yuchen glared at Zou Yangyao fiercely, stretched out his hand to push him away, quickly jumped off the carriage, and rushed towards the tea shop. Zou Yangyao had no choice but to say, "I'll cut off your chains!"
Ni Yueshan retreated to the edge of the teahouse, finally cut the canvas with a dagger, and walked out. When he saw Jing Yuchen standing in the open space, his eyes gradually turned red: "Husband!"
She called out, very happy. Jing Yuchen watched Ni Yueshan walking towards her. The two of them did not walk fast, but their eyes were always fixed on each other, and finally they hugged each other tightly.
Ni Yueshan buried her head in his chest: "I heard you were beaten with a stick."
"The wound has healed long ago and I can't feel it anymore. It's just that my father deliberately lured you out. You and I can't escape."
Ni Yueshan looked at Jing Yuchen in surprise. Jing Yuchen looked towards the grove not far away and asked, "Did you feel it?"
Ni Yueshan's eyes flickered. Someone rushed out from the originally peaceful forest. It turned out that she had been exposed when she set up the teahouse here.
No, maybe it was exposed when I bought the tea.
Ni Yueshan was not afraid, but said calmly: "Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. I believe everything will be fine!"
Jing Yuchen took Ni Yueshan's hand: "I want to protect you and make you truly safe!"
Ni Yueshan didn't understand what Jing Yuchen was trying to do. Before she could ask, Zou Yangyao came over quickly and said, "It's a trick. Let's go!"
Jing Yuchen looked at Zou Yangyao and said, "You go now. Yue Shan and I are going back to the capital!"
Zou Yangyao looked at Jing Yuchen in surprise: "What are you crazy about?"
"The world is vast, and it belongs to the king. Even if you don't escape, you won't lose your life. And Yueshan is pregnant, she needs stability!"
Zou Yangyao felt like he was about to explode with anger. He looked at Jing Yuchen with a puzzled expression.
"What are you crazy about..."
He was about to continue yelling when Ni Yueshan interrupted him: "Run away quickly. Thank you for coming to save me, but I also believe that my husband will protect me!"
Zou Yangyao looked at Ni Yueshan like an idiot. He used to think Ni Yueshan was very smart, but now he was such an idiot...
Although depressed, Ni Yueshan obviously did not appreciate it. He finally snorted and turned away.
In the capital, inside the palace, upon hearing that Ni Yueshan and Jing Yuchen had been escorted to the palace, the emperor was in high spirits and said with a smile, "Good, well done!"
Afterwards, Ni Yueshan and Jing Yuchen were brought before the emperor. Both of them knelt on the ground with unwilling expressions.
The emperor stood on the steps, looking down at them. "You two have caused Xianchang heavy losses, and now you are still thinking of escaping. Prince, you are my legitimate son, so I don't want to kill you."
He turned his gaze to Ni Yueshan again: "As the Crown Princess, you are unable to assist and support the Crown Prince. Your virtue is unworthy of the position. I will now have the Crown Prince depose you!"
Ni Yueshan said nothing. The emperor's eyes fell on Jing Yuchen: "If you don't accept it, I can send her and her unborn child to see the King of Hell right now!"
"Who does your Majesty want me to marry?" Jing Yuchen raised his head and looked at the emperor. He seemed very angry, but he had no choice but to endure it.
"Princess Tufan."
*
Afterwards, the emperor issued an edict, deposing Ni Yueshan as a concubine and ordering Jing Yuchen to marry Princess Tufan as the crown princess.
The emperor sent an envoy to Tufan to propose marriage, and Ni Yueshan stayed in the prince's mansion, imprisoned in the courtyard like a prisoner.
When Jing Yuchen was free, he came to visit Ni Yueshan and told Ni Yueshan that his first step was to take advantage of the common losses to make the people complain, and his second step was to take advantage of the marriage to let the emperor relax his vigilance and make the emperor think that he was really fickle.
Then comes the fight for the throne.
Ni Yueshan listened and felt that it would be very dangerous if she did it. She looked at Jing Yuchen worriedly, and Jing Yuchen patted her hand soothingly.
"During this time, you should rest and take care of your pregnancy. I have already asked my father to bring Qingluan and Qingfeng back so that they can accompany you!"
Ni Yueshan nodded vigorously to Jing Yuchen. Jing Yuchen smiled and touched the top of Ni Yueshan's head: "Then you should rest early!"
Watching Jing Yuchen turn around and walk into the darkness, Ni Yueshan narrowed her eyes slightly: "Why don't you leave? Are you still drinking here with me?"
When Ni Yueshan smelled the aroma of wine, she knew that there must be a guest in her yard. She was about to go out and curse, but she unexpectedly saw that the person sitting on the roof was not Zou Yangyao, but Shao Lecheng!
Shao Lecheng sat comfortably on the roof, one leg dangling in the air. "Yueshan, it's been a while since we last met. Are you still so grumpy?"
"I heard that you were kidnapped. Are you okay?"
Shao Lecheng sighed, "What could have happened? He took me away by force in front of Gou Qiong while I was off guard, deliberately making me lose face as a man."
He sighed and seemed very depressed.
When he saw Shao Lecheng, Ni Yueshan felt very relieved.
"Where's Gou Qiong?"
"I didn't let her come. She's pregnant."
Ni Yueshan looked at Shao Lecheng in surprise, and then expressed her delight: "Congratulations, you're a father now. Can you be more steady? You're sitting so high up drinking, are you afraid that the emperor won't know you're back?"
Shao Lecheng chuckled softly and flew down. His handsome and feminine face moved closer to Ni Yueshan. "Xiao Shanshan, what on earth made you submit to being a concubine in the Prince's Mansion?"
"Let me think about it. According to your previous temper, you disdained being a wife. But now... you are so casual. Have you bowed to life? Or are you impressed by Jing Yuchen?"
Ni Yueshan didn't answer his teasing question. He just looked around seriously and said, "Let's go inside and talk."
The two walked into the room, and Shao Lecheng gradually put away his playful smile.
"I want to know what happened to your mother back then."
Shao Lecheng stood in front of Ni Yueshan in surprise, the wine jug in his hand was almost empty. He had drunk a lot, but now he was sober in an instant and no longer drunk.
"do what?"
"Don't you want to avenge your mother? It was the Imperial Concubine who sent someone to kill your mother, but how could she have dared without the Emperor's connivance?"
Shao Lecheng sat down in his seat with a depressed look on his face.
"Yes, even in my dreams."
"Then help me and Jing Yuchen."
Ni Yueshan's eyes were firm and serious, which surprised Shao Lecheng.
Ni Yueshan lowered his eyes and took out a purse from his sleeve: "I didn't want to use it at first, but now I don't want to let anyone who can use it go, so I'll teach him this."
Shao Lecheng took the purse curiously and asked, "Who is he?"
"Zou Yangyao!"
Shao Lecheng looked at Ni Yueshan in surprise. He was not dead yet!
