"Suppressing bandits?"
"When did His Royal Highness Prince Su go to suppress the bandits?"
"Yeah, how come I didn't hear any movement at all?"
"Where are these bandits? In the past few years, the only troublemakers within the hundreds of miles outside of Jinling City have been the Lotus Sect. How come I haven't heard of any bandits?"
"Of course not. There have been pirates three hundred miles upstream in the Changhe River in the past few months. I heard they've robbed a lot of merchants of their goods."
"We don't dare harass government goods, but some merchants have suffered, and we have indeed reported a number of cases."
"He wiped out the water bandits without making any noise. This Prince Su is truly resolute and decisive. He should not be underestimated."
"After all, this Yama God of Death isn't called that for nothing. I used to think he was great at solving cases, but I didn't realize he could lead troops like a god."
"Is Prince Su going to regain favor again?"
"Of course not. Last time, he captured a group of Lotus Cultists who were planning to rob prisoners at the west city gate. This time, he also made great contributions by suppressing the water bandits. I'm afraid that he will be reinstated, just like His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Amidst the heated discussion, Emperor Yan's face was also filled with a hint of joy.
"good!"
"You are indeed my good son."
"Give orders to Prince Su to station his troops where they are and have him come to see me immediately!"
Emperor Yan's spirits improved a lot.
Others came forward to congratulate Emperor Yan.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty."
"His Royal Highness Prince Su has successfully suppressed the bandits again, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has also previously cracked down on the Lotus Sect. Our Daliang Dynasty is truly blessed to have princes like Prince Su and the Crown Prince!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, with these outstanding princes, our Daliang Dynasty will be able to completely eliminate the remnants of the Lotus Cult, and a return to peace and prosperity is just around the corner."
"Your Majesty, live forever, long live, long live—"
The Queen Mother was also very happy.
He invited Mrs. Pei to come over and chat with him.
Only the queen had a smile on her face, but the smile did not reach her eyes.
Li Qingluo's face didn't look very good either.
So he went to suppress bandits?
What exactly did he and Emperor Yan deal with in the palace that night?
Although they are biological father and son, Li Qingluo once again feels that Duan Rongshi is just a knife in Emperor Yan's hand.
Regarding the Pei family's affairs, Emperor Yan clearly felt that the knife was too sharp and wanted to throw it away.
Now, Duan Rongshi is used again.
Li Qingluo couldn't help but look at the Crown Princess, Su, who was not far away from him.
The eldest daughter of the current prime minister and the most outstanding daughter of the Su family.
Dignified and virtuous, gentle and virtuous.
She is a role model for all noble ladies in Jinling City, and is also the prince's most respected and beloved wife.
Li Qingluo was reading two days ago and came across a word called: checks and balances.
The Crown Prince returned to the Eastern Palace, Prince Yun fell, and Duan Rongshi rose.
Are they just pawns in Emperor Yan's hands to keep him in check?
Su Miaoyu seemed to have realized something and turned her head to look at the crowd.
Not catching those eyes, she just frowned slightly.
"My Lady, are you really going? Or let's go back. The forest is too dangerous..."
Su Miaoyu said softly, "It's alright. I promised my elder sister that I would accompany her to the forest farm to ride horses. How can I break my promise?"
"Don't worry, I was also good at riding and shooting in the past."
Princess Xiyue was at the front.
She was majestically dressed in her riding clothes and laughed heartily, saying, "My fifth brother has accomplished great things again! To congratulate my father, I will hunt a large bear today and present it to him and my grandmother!"
As the horn sounded.
The women also entered the forest farm one after another.
The girls leading the charge were determined to achieve some results today, so they all rushed out instantly.
In this hunt, the girl who comes out on top will receive a red hairpin from the queen.
Who wouldn’t want such an honor?
However, Princess Nanping did not want to do so. She wanted to see the handsome Cui Qilang.
As soon as we entered the woods, it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Li Qingluo and Pan Li were walking leisurely at the back. When the crowd had almost dispersed, they turned a corner and led their people to the direction with the least people.
Li Qingluo: "Did you make the appointment with the person I asked you to help me with yesterday?"
After no one was around, Li Qingluo asked Pan Li.
Pan Li: "It's just in front."
The two of them rode their horses with their men to the agreed place, and as expected, they saw Cui Shiyi Niang from afar.
However, Li Qingluo and Pan Li did not show up immediately.
They first dismounted quietly, and then asked Que'er and the others to lead the horses away and hide them in a farther place.
The two of them patiently hid behind the dense bushes.
Cui Shiyi Niang was getting really impatient waiting and was about to mount her horse and leave when another group of people came from the other side.
"Niang Cui Shiyi, didn't you say that Pan Li asked you to meet here?"
"Why hasn't anyone arrived yet?"
Li Qingluo and Pan Li looked at each other.
The person who came was indeed Concubine Jing—Pei Zixuan.
Cui Shiyi Niang: "How would I know why she broke the appointment?"
"This Pan Li has never been a good person. He is indeed a liar!"
"She must be playing a trick on me. Let me see how I'm going to settle the score with her!"
Cui Shiyi Niang is a hot-tempered person, how could she tolerate such humiliation?
He immediately rode away.
Pei Zixuan's face was gloomy: "Go, follow her."
After the two figures left, the nanny beside them asked Pei Zixuan, "My dear lady, why are you staring at an insignificant Pan Li?"
"Is a lowly person like her worthy of your concern?"
Pei Zixuan: "This Pan Li's personality has changed a lot recently."
