Shangguan Wanning saw the hesitation in Xiao Zhenting's eyes.
"Prince, Xiaoxiao was dying when she was carried away just now. Do you have the will to suffer such pain in the future?"
Shangguan Wanning walked to Xiao Zhenting and looked up at him with her head raised.
"But... Ling Zhirushi gave the marriage to the Queen Mother and was the queen's niece. As long as she did not make any big mistakes, it would be difficult for me to find a reason to divorce her."
"What's the difficulty? Isn't there any ready-made ones?"
Shangguan Wanning stroked her face gently and smiled, "Jealousy makes you murder your flesh and blood. Isn't that enough?"
Xiao Zhenting looked at Shangguan Wanning seriously again, and he found that this woman was really much smarter than he thought.
"I know this was done by Ling Zhiru. The prince just revealed the truth and sought justice for the children who had no chance to come to the world. I think even the Queen Mother and the Queen had nothing to say."
Xiao Zhenting fell silent and thought for a long time without saying anything.
"Prince, as long as you marry me, not only will my father help you, but the eldest princess will also stand on your side, which means you have not lost the protection of the Queen Mother. Although the Yiyong Marquis' Mansion is gone, my uncle is still there.
I dare say that the entire court may not find a second one in his prestige in the army and his military talents."
Xiao Zhenting's face gradually eased, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.
"No matter what, Ling Zhiru was carried back in the eighth-carrying sedan chair. If I come forward to expose her various crimes, it will be difficult for the Empress Dowager to explain in the future."
"I understand." Shangguan Wanning played with her braids, "So, let the prince's palace be done well. If you want to offend the empress dowager, let him offend him. What do you think?"
Xiao Zhenting's smile spread on his face again. He walked to Shangguan Wanning and asked with a smile: "What? Have you forgotten that Mu Jingrui is the prince's person? If the prince has something to do, he may not have a good life.
, aren't you afraid?"
"I'm still too busy to take care of myself, so how can I care about him? What's more, the Zheng family was indirectly destroyed in his hands. The prince thinks that he and I... are there any possibility?"
A trace of sadness flashed through Shangguan Wanning's heart.
"It's true that the most toxic woman's heart is worthy of my different view of you."
Xiao Zhenting reached out to Shangguan Wanning's waist and stayed on her belt.
"What if I insist...the one who wants you first?"
Shangguan Wanning's heart seemed to jump out of her chest.
She looked down at Xiao Zhenting's hand and said softly: "It's not impossible, but I always feel that if the prince wants to stay with me forever, he will respect my wishes."
Xiao Zhenting remembered some scenes of getting along with Shangguan Wanning.
He did not completely trust Shangguan Wanning, he just...
There are some things that he must complete before Ling Ruiying returns.
"You ask me to think about it. Don't worry, during this period, I promise that your parents will not have any trouble."
Shangguan Wanning breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then I'll thank you for your good news. I'll be waiting for your good news. Goodbye."
Shangguan Wanning turned around and was about to leave, but Xiao Zhenting grabbed his wrist and pulled him back.
She subconsciously blocked Xiao Zhenting's chest with her arms.
"Your Majesty...remn it?"
"No, I just... I can't bear to bear it." Xiao Zhenting leaned into Shangguan Wanning's ear and took a deep breath. "Ning'er, you know, how much I want you. Don't do it anymore
Play tricks with me, otherwise…”
"The prince is too worried."
Shangguan Wanning forced herself to push Xiao Zhenting away. Fortunately, Xiao Zhenting really just hugged her and let her go.
She returned to the garden and stood quietly among the many maids.
When the eldest princess saw Shangguan Wanning coming back, she found a reason to get up and go home.
The next day, Xiao Zhenting sent someone to send a letter to Shangguan Wanning, and if he wanted to expose Ling Zhiru, he had to find Xiao Jian and Wang Ying.
Wang Ying had been killed by the people sent by Ling Zhiru. However, in order to protect himself, Wang Ying wrote a letter before he died, confessing everything, and hid all the rewards Ling Zhiru gave him.
Wang Ying was tortured, but he never said who the evidence of the crime was handed over to.
"This is a clue."
Zheng Binghong fell into deep thought after reading it.
"Then we are moving faster. We are looking for it, and Ling Zhiru must be looking for it too." The eldest princess didn't expect that Ling Zhiru, who seemed weak, had such ruthless methods.
"Qi reported to the princess, Qi reported to the prince consort, and the Minister of War Mu was looking for a meeting outside." The servant came in to report.
Shangguan Wanning's heartbeat couldn't help but missed half a beat.
"My husband, I'll go out to meet you."
"No, I'll go. We're tacit about what his purpose is." Zheng Binghong looked at Shangguan Wanning who bowed his head and said, "Ning'er, come with me too."
Shangguan Wanning did not refute, but just lowered her head and followed Zheng Binghong.
"Ning'er."
As soon as Mu Jingrui saw Shangguan Wanning, he immediately rushed forward, looked at her carefully, and then breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she was safe and sound.
"It's good that you're fine. Xiaoyan is ignorant. Don't take her words to heart." After Mu Jingrui said that, he bowed to Zheng Binghong, "Mr. Prince Concubine."
After Shangguan Wanning disappeared, Mu Jingrui sent everyone to investigate her whereabouts, but there was no news.
He immediately thought of Zheng Binghong.
In such a huge capital, in the current situation, the only one who can protect Shangguan Wanning is Zheng Binghong.
"What's wrong with Lord Mu coming to my house?"
Mu Jingrui knew that because of the affairs of the Yiyong Marquis' Mansion, Zheng Binghong also had no good feelings for him.
He didn't want to please and force him humbly, so he said, "I'm here to do two things today. First, I'm asking the prince-in-law about Ning'er's whereabouts; second, I want to take Ning'er away."
"Hmph, take her away? Why are you?" Zheng Binghong felt that Mu Jingrui's personality was a bit too arrogant.
He also became famous at a young age, so he did not have the sharp arrogance in Mu Jingrui.
"There is someone who needs Ning'er's treatment."
"Me?" Shangguan Wanning looked at Mu Jingrui curiously and asked, "Who?"
"Xiao Jian."
Now, even Zheng Binghong and Shangguan Wanning's faces changed.
"Xiao Jian? Didn't he be burned to death?" Shangguan Wanning asked in surprise.
"He was not dead. When I arrived at his house that day, his family had been killed, but he was not in the body. So these days, His Highness and I have been sending people to find out his whereabouts. Although the people have been found, he
The injury is very serious."
"After all, it's an extraordinary time. When you find another doctor to treat him, the Crown Prince and I are worried that the news will leak out. So, it's best that Ning'er can go with me."
