The hero-rescue-beauty plan began to act. Ye Qingwan and Ning Qingqing were waiting for the Seventh Princess' carriage at the same time and at the same location.

Fate is a cycle, going around in circles and returning to the original place.

Could it be that the person in the carriage this time was the Imperial Tutor? The Emperor had not granted the marriage, so if he still appeared in the Seventh Princess' carriage, let's see how he would explain it.

"Here they come, get down." Ning Qingqing heard the sound of horse hooves coming from the alley and pressed Ye Qingwan onto the roof.

When the carriage got closer, we confirmed that it was the seventh princess's carriage.

"Don't move here. I'll scare her and then come back."

As Ning Qingqing spoke, she put on a mask with a green face and fangs, jumped down from the roof, and blocked the way of the carriage.

Then he pretended to be a gangster: "My little beauty, where are you going in the middle of the night? The streets are not safe. Do you want me to take you home?"

The carriage was silent for a long time, probably because it was scared.

Ning Qingqing laughed like those scoundrels and said, "Little beauty, come out obediently, or I will take action."

He speaks in a pretentious manner, but doesn't act like a gangster at all. Instead, he's quite funny.

She talked a lot until her mouth was dry and there was no sound in the carriage.

Ning Qingqing couldn't help but wonder, is there no one inside?

So she was about to go over to take a look, but just as she got close, a sharp arrow flew out and flew towards her.

Ning Qingqing was frightened and flipped in the air, dodging in an instant.

Ye Qingwan on the roof was also startled and wanted to help her, but she forgot that she had no martial arts skills this time, and her feet slipped and she slid down.

Before she could scream, a dark figure grabbed her by the back of the collar and placed her steadily on the ground.

She looked up and saw Xingmu's icy face.

A fight had already started with Ning Qingqing. Qingqing was defeated and her hands were handcuffed behind her back, making her unable to move.

Ye Qingwan took one look and quickly left Xingmu behind, trotting over: "Grandmaster, Grandmaster, let go, it's Qingqing."

Only then did Liu Sheng let her go.

Ning Qingqing rubbed her aching shoulders, looking resentful: "Why are you here again? What are you doing in the Seventh Princess' carriage?"

Ye Qingwan was still flattering her. When she heard this question, she immediately looked at Liu Sheng: "Yes, what are you doing in the Seventh Princess' carriage?"

Liu Sheng was stunned for a moment: "Listen to my explanation."

"Okay, you talk and I'm listening." Ye Qingwan looked at him.

"Yes, explain it carefully." Xingmu suddenly added with a gloating tone.

Just as he was about to say something, Ning Qingqing suddenly noticed Xingmu and asked him puzzledly: "Then shouldn't you also explain why you are here?"

Everyone in Xingmu was dumbfounded. How... did this get involved with me?

Aren’t you interrogating Liu Sheng?

"Okay, okay, I'll explain it to you."

Liu Sheng glanced at him and smiled with a gloating look on his face: "Then explain it to me."

After saying that, he took Ye Qingwan's hand and walked away, leaving Xingmu scratching his head and explaining to Ning Qingqing.

Ye Qingwan didn't say anything either. She just followed him silently, looking at him with resentment.

Although Liu Sheng didn't look back, he could feel her resentful gaze and said with a smile: "Are you tired? I'll carry you on my back?"

Ye Qingwan turned her head away and ignored him, with an expression that said, "If you don't explain it to me clearly, I'm going to break up with you."

Liu Sheng was overjoyed when he saw this.

He turned around and carried her on his back, then whispered, "The Seventh Princess was picked up by King Xiang. He insisted that I leave in her carriage. I don't know why."

"He asked you to sit and you sat?" You two are really good friends, you will walk together for the rest of your lives.

Section 232

"Yes, a few days ago in the palace, His Majesty wanted to grant me a marriage, and he helped me out." Liu Sheng said seriously.

Ye Qingwan hugged his neck, put her face close to his and asked, "Then your Majesty didn't grant us a marriage?"

Liu Sheng tilted his head slightly and saw that she was smiling. He thought she was no longer angry. He tilted his head and knocked on her head: "Of course not."

"Then if His Majesty really grants the marriage, what will you do?"

Liu Sheng smiled and said that it was impossible. As long as he didn't want to, His Majesty could revoke his order even if he was granted the gift.

But he still coaxed her: "Then I will take you far away, but I don't know if Miss Ye is willing to accompany me to wander around the world."

Ye Qingwan smiled and buried her face in his neck: "Yes."

Their attempt to save the beauty failed, and Xia Xuejian was dragged by Lao Hei to the place where the seventh princess was killed last time.

Sure enough, the Seventh Princess and Prince Xiang were seen here. They were surrounded and beaten for some unknown reason.

The Seventh Princess was obviously very frightened. She hid behind King Xiang in panic, not daring to leave him for a moment.

But the other side was more numerous and powerful, and King Xiang was injured in a short while.

The seventh princess was also dragged away by someone, and she was so scared that she screamed loudly: "Big brother, save me..."

King Xiang wanted to go over, but was blocked by three men who suddenly jumped out and stopped him.

While trying hard to break out, he helplessly watched the Seventh Princess being dragged away.

Xia Xuejian looked around, picked up a knife on the ground, and while the man was not paying attention, rushed out from behind him and stabbed the man with the knife.

The man felt pain and let go of the Seventh Princess. He turned around and stared at Xia Xuejian in horror. He raised the knife in his hand and was about to kill Xia Xuejian.

Xia Xuejian's knife was still stuck in the other person's body. She was unarmed and wanted to run, but she stepped on the corner of her skirt and fell to the ground.

I just instinctively reached out to protect my head.

At this moment, something seemed to pass over his head. Then the man groaned and fell backwards.

When she opened her eyes, an arrow was stuck in his forehead and he was already dead.

Xia Xuejian was still in shock when she heard the sound of horse hooves behind her. When she turned around, she saw a man dressed in grassland clothes riding a horse towards her.

When the men in black saw the reinforcements arriving, they did not dare to stay any longer and retreated quickly.

Everyone was out of danger. The Seventh Princess was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground, trembling. She wanted to cry but couldn't.

King Xiang didn't care about his injuries and walked over quickly: "Seventh sister, are you hurt?"

Upon hearing the King's concern, the panicked Seventh Princess immediately burst into tears and fell into his arms: "Brother..."

King Xiang gently stroked her back and comforted her: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm here."

Xia Xue saw that her ankle was slightly sprained, and she sat back down again in pain when she remembered it.

Hu Li sat upright on his horse, watching coldly, with no intention of pulling her.

In the end, it was Prince Xiang who comforted the Seventh Princess before coming over to help Xia Xuejian up and saying, "Thank you."

Xia Xuejian glanced at the Seventh Princess and smiled: "I owe her."

King Xiang said nothing.

Instead, he stood there and leaned forward with interest: "The public security in Dayu Kyoto is really eye-opening."

If it were in the past, the King of Xiang would have said something to him. But now, the King of Xiang just smiled and even said to him, "What Hu Li Khan said is very true. Tomorrow I will ask for your permission to properly revamp the defense of the capital."

Hu Li frowned: "How do you know the Khan's name?"

King Xiang shrugged: "Guess."

Xia Xuejian: ...

He is just as good at deceiving people as Liu Sheng.

Hu Li: ...

That’s a pretty accurate guess.
