"Lord Wang, you have this hobby?" Xie Lingqin was quite surprised.
Wang Renyi's face darkened further. Suppressing his anger, he turned to the Emperor and said, "Your Majesty, my loyalty is beyond question, and I am only cautious to ensure a safe journey."
"Alright, I'll take you there, but I need to think about the route."
Xie Lingqin waved her hand, her posture was clear and easy to talk to.
"Wait a minute." The Fifth Princess suddenly spoke up to stop her, looking at Wang Renyi. "Wang Renyi, are you out of your mind? You need to look at this too?" The Fifth Princess clearly disliked Wang Renyi. After speaking, she immediately changed her tone to the Emperor, becoming gentle and soft. "Father, if Yan She hadn't stalled for time just now, my ears would have been gone long ago. This matter..." The Fifth Princess then gave Wang Renyi a cold glance. "Lord Wang, you should know about this matter, shouldn't you?"
“This…” Wang Renyi lowered his head silently, feeling very ashamed.
Although Xie Danling released them, if Yan She hadn't bought them time, the consequences would have been...
"Your Highness is right. I was being too serious."
"It's good that you know. Even if you're incompetent, you shouldn't be jealous." The Fifth Princess raised an eyebrow, then looked at Xie Lingqin with a rosy smile. "Young Master Yan, don't pay any attention to him."
"Lord Wang was only thinking of His Majesty, and he is loyal and courageous. How could I blame him? However, since there is nothing to do now, please allow me to take my leave first. I have not been here tonight either."
The Emperor smiled knowingly and waved his hand, "Go."
The Fifth Princess watched Yan She and Zi He's retreating figures until she reluctantly looked away.
At this moment, Xie Lingqin glanced at the Fifth Princess out of the corner of her eye for a while before looking away.
This fifth princess...
"Your Majesty, I am escorted by these dozens of guards and have not been injured. I will now take my leave and return to my residence."
At this moment, Xie Danling walked over.
Xu Shixun and two other boys chimed in unison.
The Emperor thought for a moment, then waved his hand, "Go."
Xie Danling, then escorted by dozens of guards, left with Xu Shixun and the others.
Moreover, the group quickly followed Xie Lingqin.
Xie Lingqin, dressed as a man, ignored them and pretended not to know them.
"Xie Danling, although you didn't directly tell the Emperor that we were the ones who caused your arrest, don't think I'll be grateful to you."
Xu Shixun's somewhat awkward voice rang out in the quiet, uneven mountain path.
"Do you think I'm like you, always complaining?"
After glancing at Xie Lingqin's figure in front of him, Xie Danling turned to Xu Shixun and said.
Xu Shixun was immediately displeased, "You just punched me."
"That wasn't to cover for you, but to tell you the plan. Otherwise, you idiots would have been killed long ago if you had saved me."
"this……"
Xu Shixun was speechless for a moment, then waved to the two boys behind him, "You two, say something."
"Oh yes, we even brought firecrackers as weapons."
One of the boys said.
"cut."
Xie Dan scoffed, "Those firecrackers can only scare little kids and cause some chaos. Can they save lives?"
"this……"
"In short, Xie Danling, we're even today, and we'll wipe the slate clean of what happened before." Xu Shixun patted his chest, as if he had made a momentous decision, his fat face jiggling.
Xie Danling glanced at him, "I reluctantly agreed."
"Alright, then when you get back you must tell your fierce sister that we helped you, and she's not allowed to come and beat us up again for no reason."
Xu Shixun felt uneasy when he mentioned this.
Xie Danling looked at him, "Xie Lingqin?"
"Otherwise?"
"She went to the academy and beat you up."
A boy nearby chimed in, "Yeah, she actually guessed it was us who did it, causing you to be captured by the thieves. So, she's been interrogating us relentlessly. Look at my hands, my neck..."
The boy rolled up his sleeves and pulled open his collar, gesturing for Xie Dan to listen.
Xie Danling...
Another boy pulled up his trouser leg, "See? It doesn't hit the face much, it hits the body, mine..."
"Alright, have you two any backbone? You have the nerve to say that? My butt still hurts and I haven't even told you." Xu Shixun looked quite awkward. "I was originally thinking of kidnapping you to get revenge on her, but... never mind, you're no pushover either. Neither of you siblings are good people, so we're not fighting anymore." As Xu Shixun spoke, he suddenly looked at Xie Danling with great sympathy. "Xie Danling, your sister is so fierce. You must have been beaten and scolded by her quite a bit when you were with her."
Xie Lingling...
"fine."
They didn't kill him!
"Your sister is so capable, will she be able to get married in the future?"
Xu Shixun stroked Xie Danling's chubby face, worried about her. "Xie Danling, if your sister can't get married, you'll be in big trouble. You'll be bullied by her every day."
"It's none of your business."
As Xie Danling spoke, he looked ahead at Xie Lingqin, who remained calm and steady as she walked, even while listening to their words.
His eyes held a complex expression, and his heart was filled with bitterness.
I didn't feel anything for this older sister before, but now I finally appreciate her, only to discover that they weren't born to the same father.
If only she were also Prince Yong's daughter...
Ah, how could I think that? He's General Xie's son, and he's only just met that Prince Yong...
"Xie Danling, what are you thinking about? You look so worried." Xu Shixun stared at Xie Danling curiously.
