Wen Nongnong successfully shook off Xiao Yan, strolled around the streets, bought herself a lot of delicious food, and also bought some for Lü Qiao and Wang Houde.
On her way back, fearing that Xiao Yan would catch her at the main gate, she had no choice but to sneak to the back gate, intending to slip in from there.
However, there were old women guarding the back door, so it wouldn't be an easy task for her to get in.
She walked around the high walls of the Regent's Palace and found that the walls were too high and there was nowhere to grab onto, making it quite difficult for her to climb up.
Just as she was gazing at the wall in despair, a shadow suddenly darted over. Before she could dodge, her arm tightened, and she was lifted up.
"ah--"
She screamed, and the next moment, she was placed on the top of the wall.
Who is it?
Hearing the commotion, the armored guards patrolling inside the mansion grabbed their spears and ran to the base of the wall.
Then, she watched helplessly as a sharp, gleaming spear was pointed at her.
Wen Nongnong: "..."
"What happened?" At this moment, Xiao Yan pushed aside the armored guards blocking his way and walked over. When he saw who was sitting on the wall, he opened his mouth wide in surprise, "Hey, nephew's wife, how did you get up on the wall? Or is the view better from there?"
When Wen Nongnong saw him, she almost gritted her teeth.
She was certain that the person who had ambushed her and put her on the wall was this guy.
Thinking about this, she almost turned into a pufferfish in anger.
Today was truly the worst day of her life; she had to run into such an unlucky guy.
"Xiao Yan, you just wait, I'll beat you to a pulp!" She gritted her teeth, looked around, searching for a suitable weapon to kill Xiao Yan.
A muffled laugh suddenly rang out, followed by the respectful voice of the armored guard, "Your Highness!"
Wen Nongnong's body stiffened, and she slowly turned her head. Sure enough, she saw Gu Linchao walking over with a frosty expression, followed by Si Yi, Wang Houde, and a young man she had never seen before.
Wen Nongnong pressed one hand to her forehead. "It's over, it's over, this is the end for me."
Why is she so unlucky?
She lowered her head like an ostrich, not daring to look at Gu Linchao's face.
Just then, someone, seemingly eager to stir up trouble, said, "Hengzhi, you've come back just in time. Your wife really doesn't respect her elders. Not only does she call me by my name, but she also threatened to beat me to a pulp."
Xiao Yan shook his head and sighed as he spoke.
"Heh." The young man standing next to Gu Linchao suddenly chuckled, turned to look at Gu Linchao, and said in broken Chinese, "The Regent's wife is quite interesting."
Wen Nongnong really wanted to curse. Funny my foot! Your whole family is funny! This person is clearly adding fuel to the fire. Just like Xiao Yan, they are all bad people.
Gu Linchao's brows seemed to be covered with a layer of frost as he looked at Wen Nongnong with a cool gaze, "Aren't you coming down yet? Don't you think you're embarrassed enough?"
Wen Nongnong looked at the high wall and calculated the chances of breaking her leg if she jumped down directly.
Finally, feeling the risk was too great, she shook her head. "Your Highness, I... I can't go down..." she said, opening her arms to him and shamelessly asking, "Hug me."
A moment of silence fell over the scene.
The next moment, Xiao Yan burst out laughing, "Haha... Hengzhi, your wife is a real character."
Gu Linchao felt a burning sensation at the base of his ears, and his fingers, hidden in his sleeve, curled up slightly.
