Feng Lai had never been to this secret house on the cliff, nor had he seen the Qilin Guard. He watched as the masked man knocked out his maid without a word and then captured her, making a fuss along the way. "Let me go! Do you know who I am? Where are you taking me, you bastard?"
Liang Shuyi said calmly, "Princess, be quiet. I haven't done anything to you yet."
The Qilin Guard suddenly stopped and threw Feng Lai to the ground in a rather unkind manner. Feng Lai thought he was going to do something bad to her and was about to scream for help when a handkerchief, which had probably been used to wrap dumplings and was not washed, was stuffed into her mouth without warning.
"Quarrel."
Liang Shuyi, who was also tied up, looked at Qilinwei with admiration. If she wasn't tied up now, she would definitely applaud this guy, even though his brain was not very smart sometimes: "This guy is amazing."
“Woo woo woo!”
Feng Lai glared at Qilinwei fiercely and started to curse without using any profanity. However, the person being cursed said, "How can this person still make such a noise even though his mouth is blocked?" "What is she saying?"
Liang Shuyi smiled and said, "I'm praising you. Well, you take her with you. I can go on my own."
"No," he said, and the young man walked away with Feng Lai in his left hand and Liang Shuyi in his right hand, as if they were just joking.
...Feng Lai was just released. She took the rag out of her mouth and was about to give a lecture to the masked man who didn't know the etiquette. But before she could open her mouth, Tang Chen slapped her hard in the face.
Feng Lai was stunned for a long time before he covered his face and pointed at Tang Chen's nose and said, "You, you dare to hit me!"
Tang Chen put her burning hands behind her back and waved her hand. This time, the Qilin Guards were very smart and closed the door and left. "I'm going to hit you. As a princess of a country, do you know what you are doing?"
Due to the extraordinary guard outside the door, Feng Lai did not dare to fight with Tang Chen. She could only grit her teeth and say, "I am a princess. What's wrong with me pursuing my love? Why do you care about me?"
Tang Chen, however, approached step by step, and without giving an inch, asked back, "Do you still realize that you are a princess? A princess of a country who gambled with soldiers who had sacrificed their lives for their country for a man she had only met once, deceived her own father, and held a powerless woman hostage?"
Tang Chen's words left Feng Lai speechless for a moment, but if she backed down at this moment, wouldn't it be embarrassing for her as a princess? "...This is my private matter, you have no right to interfere."
This made Tang Chen realize that, indeed, the mistress of the Qingliang Palace was Princess Fenglai, not him. Okay, didn't she say she had no right to manage it? If she couldn't, there were still many people who could manage her.
"I really can't control what you want to do, but I'm telling you, this is the Qingliang Palace, not your Shu Kingdom's palace. It's true that we need Shu Kingdom's assistance now, but if I exaggerate your actions and spread them around, and your father finds out, how much use do you think your threats will have on us?"
Tang Chen turned around and caught a glimpse of the long scar on Liang Shuyi's neck that was oozing with blood. He thought Feng Lai was just trying to scare Liang Shuyi, but he didn't expect her to actually dare to do it: "Guizhi, take your young lady to bandage the wound first, and then tell your son-in-law about this matter."
"yes."
Liang Shuyi hurriedly pulled up her collar to try to hide the wound. If Chen Xin knew about this, the princess would have a hard time. After all, she was her cousin, young and naive. Fortunately, no major disaster had occurred, so she didn't want to pursue the matter: "Don't tell him, it's just a minor injury!"
Although Liang Shuyi wanted to let the matter go peacefully, Tang Chen refused to agree. Although she was not as protective as Chen Xin, she was not the type to be bullied and swallow her anger. Since Feng Lai had the courage to do this, he should be prepared to pay the same or even several times the price: "A minor injury? When did your temper become so good? Although we are not princesses or royal relatives like her, we are not people who can be bullied. If Guizhi hadn't informed me, who knows what this woman would do, and you are still speaking for her."
Liang Shuyi pleaded, "This is all because of me..."
Seeing that the two of them were so excited that they ignored her, Feng Lai interrupted angrily, "Shut up, both of you! I'm a princess, and you're just an ordinary woman now. What qualifications do you have to tell me what to do?"
Tang Chen slammed the table. That was a good point. This matter had nothing to do with her. Rather than causing a mess later, it was better to talk it out now. "You're right. You want an answer, right? Then I'll give you one."
Hearing that Tang Chen also knew about Liu Wuhen, Feng Lai's expression suddenly changed 180 degrees: "You, you know about him too?"
Tang Chen looked at Liang Shuyi and said with a smile: "Not only do I know, I also know where he is now."
Liang Shuyi felt that the situation was not good, so he quickly stepped forward to cover Tang Chen's quick mouth: "Tang Chen, you!"
Tang Chen pulled her hand and said half jokingly and half seriously, "A short pain is worse than a long one. I'm fed up with her causing trouble every other day. You're not afraid of her causing trouble again and again, but I am."
Feng Lai immediately stated: "As long as you tell me, I promise not to harass you again, and I will never do such dangerous things again."
Tang Chen sneered and said, "Oh, now you know the danger, why didn't you think about it when you took action? I said before, words are not enough, let's put it in writing."
Tang Chen was also afraid that Princess Fenglai would run away. She was injured outside and wanted to stay alone in the Qingliang Palace. If she ran back and said something nonsense to the King of Shu, the east wind that had been borrowed with great difficulty would be gone. Wouldn't that be a huge loss? Therefore, it was better to get some evidence in hand first.
After carefully confirming that the written document signed by Princess Fenglai contained no ambiguity or vagueness, Tang Chen took a few steps toward the door and pointed at Liang Shuyi, saying, "The person you're looking for is right in front of you. You thought you knew him so well, you couldn't forget him, but you didn't even know if he was a man or a woman. Just now, you almost killed her by mistake. Are you satisfied with this answer?"
"..." Liang Shuyi's body was stiff, and she turned her head with difficulty to look at Tang Chen. Tang Chen knew that the so-called glance that lasted for a thousand years was just like this. She would have to run a distance of ten thousand light years to forget the look Liang Shuyi gave her.
Feng Lai, who had lost the ability to control his facial expressions, couldn't tell whether he was crying or laughing. He began to think about life: "You, it's impossible, impossible!"
