Chapter 332 It couldn’t be better!

Tao Wanyin also looked over and a look of panic suddenly appeared on her face.

How come this man in gray cloth looks exactly like the seriously injured Emperor Wu Su who is still unconscious in the palace?

But she soon understood the whole story. Tao Wanyin bowed and said, "I pay my respects to the Emperor."

"Get up."

Only after hearing these two faint words did Tao Wanyin dare to raise her head.

There was also a young girl standing next to Emperor Wu Su. She was dressed in white and must be a maid in the palace.

The two people's postures were very intimate without avoiding others, and their bodies were very close to each other, which was no longer a normal contact distance.

The maid smiled lively at Tao Wanyin, but she immediately turned her head away, unwilling to look at her.

The emperor is fickle and will favor someone else after just a few days. It turns out that all men in the world are evil.

When Princess Yong turned to look at Prince Yong again, she thought of the group of beautiful girls in the backyard of the palace.

For the first time, Tao Wanyin felt naked jealousy in her heart. She bit her lower lip and lowered her eyes.

"Are you feeling unwell?" Zhao Minghong held her hand and asked in a low voice.

Tao Wanyin pushed his hand away and said calmly, "I'm fine. If the prince has anything else to do, I will go back to the palace first."

Seeing that Prince Yong was fine, she felt relieved.

But little emotions kept popping up like bamboo shoots after the rain, making her feel sad.

"I will take my leave first."

Tao Wanyin bowed to Emperor Wu Su, and Zhao Mingyan naturally had no objection and nodded slightly.

Princess Yong left the room in a depressed mood.

When Prince Yong saw her leave, he also said hurriedly: "Brother Emperor, I don't think you need me here either—"

Emperor Wu Su opened his mouth and said, "You stay first."

Zhao Minghong could only stare blankly as Tao Wanyin walked away from him.

He reasonably suspected that his brother the emperor just couldn't bear to see the couple go home together and deliberately wanted to separate them.

Prince Yong asked: "Brother, what is the matter?"

Zhao Mingyan said: "After dawn today, the Ministry of Justice, the Censorate and the Dali Temple will jointly investigate the case of Su Fengyue."

"But I want to assign one person to be in charge of the entire case."

Prince Yong's eyes lit up instantly, and he said loudly: "I am willing to take over this case and handle it impartially without any partiality!"

When Zhao Mingyan heard him say that he would never be partial, he smiled faintly.

He gave his bottom line and said, "Minghong, leave him a breath."

After hearing this, Prince Yong understood that Emperor Wu Su also wanted to make this old man, Prime Minister Su, suffer some hardship that he had never experienced before.

Zhao Minghong got the job and left immediately.

After leaving the prime minister's residence, there was no sign of the palace's carriage.

Duan Mingfeng was leading a group of people past, and Zhao Minghong stepped forward to stop him and asked, "Master Duan, have you seen the princess?"

Facing Prince Yong, Duan Mingfeng said coldly, "I didn't see it." After that, he was about to continue walking.

Zhao Minghong said impatiently, "She should have just left the house not long ago. You were guarding the door the whole time. Didn't you see it? Are your eyes useless?"

Duan Mingfeng said indifferently: "If the princess is unwilling to wait for the prince, what does it have to do with me?" He looked at Prince Yong from bottom to top, looked directly at him and said: "Your eyes are not in vain, you can't even keep an eye on your own princess."

Prince Yong had little dealings with this Imperial City Envoy, and he only knew that he had a gloomy personality, but he didn't expect that he was so harsh in his words.

But Emperor Wu Su was still inside, and he didn't want to cause any more trouble, so he simply intercepted a horse from the Black Guard and rode away.

After leaving the Su Mansion, Tao Wanyin quickly returned to the carriage and urged the coachman to return to the palace as soon as possible.

She leaned against the wall of the carriage, recalling the scene in the prime minister's residence.

The Emperor showed up, and it was obvious that Prince Yong had something important to attend to, so he went there rashly. How reckless he was.

But she also felt more at ease. Recently, because the emperor was seriously injured, not only the people in the palace, but also the people on the streets were in a state of constant fear.

It was only now that Tao Wanyin saw clearly what kind of person Prince Yong was.

She originally thought that he married her in order to use the power of the Tao family to consolidate his position in the court.

Emperor Wu Su was seriously wounded by an arrow while offering sacrifices to his ancestors. The temptation of the supreme position of the emperor was so great that few people in the world could withstand it.

Although the Empress Dowager pushed him to the forefront of public opinion, Prince Yong never wavered and had no ambition for the throne.

What Prince Yong said to her before...

It's sincere.

I heard the sound of horse hooves, which gradually slowed down and became the same rhythm as the carriage.

There was no one around at night except for their carriage. Tao Wanyin quietly lifted a corner of the curtain.

There was no one around the moving carriage.

She felt a chill in her heart and looked around again, finally seeing a large, pure black horse left on the side of the street, its tail swinging.

Tao Wanyin's face suddenly lost color. The horse was near her, proving that she had not heard wrongly. But where was the person driving the horse?

Almost at the same time, the curtain of the carriage was lifted.

When Tao Wanyin saw Zhao Minghong appear in front of her, she glared at him angrily but dared not say anything.

Let me first say something, what will happen if you call her.

Tao Wanyin huddled in a corner of the carriage. She did not greet people politely as she usually did. She just stayed there quietly.

Observing her expression, Zhao Minghong dared not to act rashly. He just sat down, still feeling the coolness of the night.

There was even room for two more people between their seats. In such silence, the carriage drove smoothly to the palace.

Zhao Minghong strode out of the carriage first, and Tao Wanyin breathed a sigh of relief.

Somehow, being in the same cramped space with him made her so nervous that her palms were sweaty.

Only this time it wasn't cold sweat, it was hot.

Tao Wanyin walked out of the carriage, bent over and was about to step on the stirrup with her foot, when suddenly she felt dizzy and someone grabbed her by the waist and carried her off the carriage.

Her little exclamation was very obvious in the silent night.

"My Lord, put me down."

Zhao Minghong took advantage of the situation and shook his body. The amplitude was not large, but it was enough to scare Tao Wanyin.

It’s not that I’m afraid of falling, but that I’m afraid of being seen.

She said hastily, "Your Majesty, please let me go."

Zhao Minghong knew her conservative and polite temperament, so he said indifferently: "There is no one else here, what are you afraid of?"

Tao Wanyin buried her face in her hands.

There was such a big living person and a living horse behind him, and two people were breathing, but Prince Yong pretended not to see them.

Zhao Minghong then realized that there was a third person and a fourth horse present, and he said dissatisfiedly: "Why are you still here?"

The coachman, who was still parked at the original spot, hurriedly drove the carriage back to the mansion through the back door.

The main gate of the palace.

The shadows of the trees cast a shadow, and the bright moonlight enveloped the two of them. Prince Yong held her in his arms and walked up the seven bluestone steps.

Tao Wanyin said softly: "This is not good."

Prince Yong said, "What's wrong with that? This is my palace, and the one I'm holding is my own princess. I think it couldn't be better."

It’s almost too good to be true.

Tao Wanyin did not refuse anymore and secretly leaned her face on his chest. She could hear his heart beating like a drum.
