1325 Backer, we will see you soon

The Queen sent people to pick up Princess Mingwei. The Ninth Prince's people had known about it for a long time. Although they were dissatisfied with the Queen's actions, they admired Princess Mingwei's ability in their hearts.

Being able to get in touch with the Queen and Prince Luo under their surveillance shows that Princess Mingwei is not a stupid person. But... the person who came to pick her up was too stupid. He actually said words that looked down on them in their territory.

Ahem... Ninth Prince's people forgot that this is the border, not their territory, and the commander guarding the border is not Ninth Prince's men, but the Emperor's men.

The border guard has been so cooperative during this period because the person who died was Mr. Wen Yuan and he did not want to be implicated. But even so, the Ninth Prince's men were still very dissatisfied with the people sent by Prince Luo.

"Your Highness, we brothers cannot bear this insult. We must make those scum soldiers understand how powerful they are."

"Your Highness, I admit that Mr. Wenyuan's death was caused by our negligence, but we cannot stand being pointed at and accused of incompetence by those bastards in the capital."

…

The staff, the guard commander, and even the Eighteen Riders of the Si Family expressed their dissatisfaction in front of the Ninth Uncle, saying that they would teach Prince Luo's personal soldiers a lesson.

After the Ninth Prince understood the whole story, he looked coldly at the indignant crowd and said, "Are they wrong? Mr. Wenyuan did die under your protection."

"Your Highness, we..." The guards had gloomy faces and didn't know what to say for a moment. This was the fact and they had blamed themselves for this for a long time, but they still couldn't stand being pointed at and scolded for incompetence by Prince Luo's personal soldiers. No matter how bad they were, they were still better than that group of Beijing soldiers.

"Since it is the fact, do you have the right to be angry?" The Ninth Prince glanced coldly at the few people who made the complaint. He did not withdraw his gaze until they bowed their heads and admitted their mistakes.

Knowing that these people were angry, the Ninth Prince did not say anything more, and only said: "Since Prince Luo's personal soldiers are so capable, let them protect Princess Mingwei and leave first. Go, send someone to inform Princess Mingwei, and leave with Prince Luo's personal soldiers in an hour."

"One, one hour later?" The staff member looked up quickly, unable to believe what he heard.

Was the Ninth Prince wrong?

King Luo's troops have just arrived. They are exhausted from the journey. It will take them at least three to five days to replenish their food and grass. Otherwise, how will they have the energy to travel? Most importantly, what will the people and horses eat along the way?

"What? Is one hour too long? Fine then, carry all of Princess Mingwei's belongings to the outside of the post station in half an hour so that they can set off as soon as possible." The Ninth Prince said this, turned around and left, leaving the guards standing there looking at each other in bewilderment.

The Ninth Prince was too insidious. They just wanted to teach those rampant brats a lesson, but the Ninth Prince simply kicked them out and didn't even give them a hot meal.

But they like it.

The staff, along with a group of guards with silly smiles, went to convey the Ninth Prince's order, and at the same time assigned people to help Princess Mingwei tidy up, lest she be unable to do so in half an hour.

"You use such a mean trick. Aren't you afraid that Princess Mingwei and the Queen will be so angry that they will do something bad to you?" This is almost like kicking the person out. Ordinary people would not be able to swallow this, let alone Princess Mingwei.

"Everyone in the imperial city is bullying me. If I don't do something, they will really think that I am doomed." The Ninth Prince said in a cold voice.

The soldiers personally under Prince Luo dared to speak so arrogantly. There must be someone behind the scenes who was instructing them to test him. If he did not fight back strongly, those people would really think that he was in a bad situation because of Mr. Wen Yuan's death.

Feng Qingchen understood and said with a mocking smile: "People in the officialdom are so realistic."

"No one in the world is unrealistic. The struggle for power is either you or me. There is nothing wrong with their testing, and it is also normal for me to fight back. Right now, I cannot retreat even a single step. Once I retreat, neither the Emperor nor my nephews will let me go." As the struggle for the throne between Xiling and Nanling came to an end, Prince Luo and Prince Chun became even more anxious.

"Similarly, you will not let them go if you have the chance." Feng Qingchen said what the Ninth Uncle had not finished saying. The Ninth Uncle was not angry and nodded in agreement.

The imperial family has family affection, but the Dongling royal family has no family affection.

Feng Qingchen shook his head and sighed, then asked, "How did Princess Mingwei hook up with the Queen?"

"Hook up? That's a good word." The Ninth Prince was still in the mood to joke at this time, which showed that the matter was not that serious.

"If my guess is correct, Nanling Jinfan must have given something to Princess Mingwei, and something like this in his hand made the Queen and Prince Luo excited. After all, the royal family would not do anything that is not profitable."

"What could make the Queen and Prince Luo excited?" Feng Qingchen showed curiosity. The Ninth Prince was unable to satisfy her this time. She shook her head and said, "I don't know either. Nanling Jinfan has been rampant in Nanling for many years. He always has one or two life-saving cards in his hand. He has no chance of turning things around now, so it's normal for him to give it to Princess Mingwei."

Feng Qingchen nodded and didn't ask any more questions. Just at this time, the servants had fetched water and the two of them went to bathe. Feng Qingchen was slower, so by the time she finished washing up, the Ninth Prince had already gone to the front hall.

Feng Qingchen walked over with his servants. As soon as he walked out of the yard, he saw Princess Mingwei and a group of people walking towards him.

"Feng Qingchen, wait a minute, I have something to tell you." Princess Mingwei spoke from afar.

Feng Qingchen raised her eyebrows, paused, and stood there waiting. She wanted to know what Princess Mingwei wanted to say to her. She actually called herself "this princess" so stubbornly. Even in Nanling, Princess Mingwei didn't dare to call herself "this princess".

Princess Mingwei quickened her pace, beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, and her messy hair stuck to her forehead. She looked a little embarrassed, probably because she walked too fast. Her breathing was also a little unstable. She looked a little embarrassed, but her momentum was not weak. She stood in front of Feng Qingchen aggressively.

Become arrogant after finding a backer?

Feng Qingchen looked at Princess Mingwei with amusement. Seeing that Princess Mingwei looked at her for a long time without saying anything, she kindly reminded her, "Princess Mingwei, the Ninth Prince asked you to leave within half an hour. You don't have much time left. You'd better say whatever you want to say."

"Feng Qingchen, you...don't be too proud!" Princess Mingwei's face was a little distorted, as if she was deliberately suppressing something. Feng Qingchen really wanted to laugh when she saw it.

Can she say that the little girl is still a little immature?

She was scared if she really thought she had found the Queen and Prince Luo as her backers.

No matter how valuable the things in Princess Mingwei's hands are, they will fall into Prince Luo's hands sooner or later. When Princess Mingwei is no longer valuable, will Prince Luo still protect her with all his might?

Innocent!

"Princess, you forgot what to say. Then think about it again and tell me when you remember. We will have many opportunities to meet in the future." Feng Qingchen took a step back and was about to go around Princess Mingwei, but was blocked by Princess Mingwei.

Princess Mingwei put away her aggressive attitude, tears in her eyes, and said in pain: "Feng Qingchen, I can't help myself."

Princess Mingwei's body swayed, and if the maid behind her hadn't been quick-witted, she would have fallen to the ground...
