The bright moon was setting in the west. Linglong Pavilion was in ruins. The two of them found a clean patch of ground and sat on the ground, drinking in silence.
‘Xiao Ran, thank you, I feel better now.’
Xiao Ran snorted and sighed.
‘Feng Qin is after all the Imperial Princess’s man.’
Jun Xu poured a glass of wine for Xiao Ran and smiled.
‘So what, I’m the Imperial Princess’s man now.’
“Be careful of inviting the wolf into the house, you really dare.’
‘What can I do? Shen Yao no longer tolerates me, and the emperor is watching the battle between the tigers and the bears. How would he care about me? The only way out now is the crown princess. What choice do I have?‘
’…… That was too dangerous. You actually broke into the crown princess’s mansion at night. What if you had been shot to death before you could say anything? What if the crown princess was trying to kill you to weaken Shen Yao’s influence?’
‘That’s why I wore white. The crown princess is cautious and will naturally not act rashly when she sees something so unreasonable.‘
’How dare you!‘
’Thank you for the compliment.‘
Xiao Ran stared, speechless, and took a sip of wine. Jun Xu grinned with glee.
’I’m dead, but I’m still useful to the crown princess alive, don’t you think?‘
’Are you that confident?’
‘Even an old woman is going to take her place, so why would she kill me to gain the old woman’s trust? I am the chief general under the old woman! If I reveal the fact that I am not the old woman’s daughter now, it will cause a major disturbance. Da Qin is itching to kill its way in. If Jing Sa dies, how many generals in the country can resist the Tong family?‘
’Arrogant because of your talent!’
‘Thank you, I have the capital and the courage. If Shen Da didn’t have talent, and she lost Yizhou City, the emperor would have taken the opportunity to kill her.‘
’You girl is good at calculating!‘
’Don’t grind your teeth and glare, I don’t think I’ll be in the capital for long.‘
’Frontline‘
