The next morning, the Holy Driver was about to leave for the palace.

After everyone had breakfast, they waited outside the tent for the palace officials to pack their bags.

Jiang Quhan visited Su Yanqi early in the morning and felt a little relieved when he saw that he had returned to normal.

On the way back, he suddenly ran into Yaoyao running towards him and almost bumped into him.

"Yinmian, why are you hiding from me?"

A middle-aged man wearing dark official uniform chased after him.

Yaoyao hid behind Jiang Quhan and begged: "Please help me take him away, and I will tell you a secret about the assassin."

Jiang Quhan looked surprised, then nodded in agreement.

"I have met His Royal Highness King Qian!" The middle-aged man stepped forward and saluted Jiang Quhan.

Jiang Quhan didn't recognize him and turned to look at Yaoyao with doubts in his eyes.

Yaoyao's eyes dodge and she whispers to Jiang Quhan: "Grand Master Liang Yi... my nominal father, this old man never likes to participate in these occasions, but he came to the paddock this morning for some unknown reason."

Jiang Quhan turned back and stood between the two of them.

"Why does Grand Master Liang want to chase the maid next to Princess A Zhao?"

Grand Master Liang said anxiously: "Your Highness King Qian, she is the daughter of an old minister. Please allow me to meet her. I have something to say to her."

Yaoyao tugged at Jiang Quhan's clothes and signaled him to send Grand Master Liang away.

Jiang Quhan understood and said seriously: "I'm afraid Grand Master Liang has admitted the wrong person. This is the maid sent by Cangzhou Fu Mansion to Princess A Zhao. How can she be your daughter?"

"She has a rude personality and is irritable. She is such a vulgar and rough-and-tumble maid...at first glance, she is not a lady like everyone else."

When Jiang Quhan said this, Yaoyao pinched the back of his waist hard.

The pain made Jiang Quhan grit his teeth, turned around angrily and pushed Yaoyao away.

"Yinmian!" Master Liang wanted to catch up, but was stopped by Fang Yu and Helian.

The two returned to the camp.

Jiang Quhan's face turned dark and he urged Yaoyao angrily: "Hurry up and stay as far away from me as possible."

He rubbed the painful place where Yaoyao pinched him angrily, with a look of resentment on his face.

Yaoyao raised her chin fiercely and leaned in front of his face to question.

"What did you just say about me?"

Jiang Quhan looked away, feeling a little guilty: "I'm not wrong, you are very..."

He caught a glimpse of Yaoyao's unkind eyes and swallowed his words.

Yaoyao angrily grabbed his collar and pushed him to the bed.

Jiang Quhan panicked: "What do you want to do?"

Yaoyao raised the corners of her lips and sneered: "Didn't you say I was rude? Now I am rude to you!" After that, he started to take off Jiang Quhan's clothes.

? ? Jiang Quhan was stunned and tensed up to stop her: "Yaoyao, stop it!"

Yaoyao didn't care: "It's not like you've never taken off your clothes in front of me, so what are you afraid of!"

Jiang Quhan resisted tenaciously.

"Are you a little ashamed? Why do you always like to take off men's clothes!"

Yaoyao Po Guan Po Shan: "This girl just likes your skin. If you take it off again/show me what's wrong?"

Jiang Quhan looked shocked: "Come here, this woman is crazy!"

There was a fierce fight in the tent. Fang Yu and Helian stood a few meters away, covering their ears and laughing.

A quarter of an hour later, calm returned to the tent.

The two had a fight, and Yaoyao felt much better.

They were sitting on the edge of the bed, disheveled.

Yaoyao gasped and slowly told her about the abnormality she discovered yesterday when she sneaked into the hunting area.

"I accidentally saw a hidden cave in the back mountain yesterday. I went in to check it out and found a lot of weapons and food inside, as well as a few sets of foreign clothes scattered there."

"It must be the hiding place of the group of assassins who assassinated you."

Jiang Quhan frowned and asked, "Have you told Huo Yun Jue?"

Yaoyao shook her head: "I came back yesterday and went to guard Ah Qi. I didn't have time to tell him about it."

Jiang Quhan's eyes flashed coldly: "They are actually so well prepared. It seems that they have planned it in advance and have been hiding in the mountains, waiting for me to fall into my trap."

Thinking of yesterday's thrilling scene, a sharp coldness filled Jiang Quhan's eyes.

Yaoyao took out a token and threw it to him.

"I picked this up in the cave. This is the official sign to enter the paddock. The assassins must have used this to sneak in in advance and hide in the mountains to ambush you."

Jiang Quhan clutched the token tightly and looked solemn.

Yaoyao stood up, straightened her clothes and said sternly: "Prince Qian, I will repay you with this today for blocking that arrow for me. As a person like me, I don't like to owe others favors. Your Majesty, Fourth Highness, I will I will explain it myself.”

Jiang Quhan lowered his eyes, thoughtfully.

Before Yaoyao left, she reminded him: "But those assassins are here for you after all, and His Majesty has severely punished the patrol officers and guards who failed in their duties. Please don't embarrass His Highness the Fourth Highness again."

Jiang Quhan raised his eyes and looked at her: "I will get to the bottom of this matter, but this token is inseparable from your people in Nanyao Kingdom. After I go back today, I will go to Dali Temple to interrogate those witch clansmen. assassins to see if this assassination is related to them."

"It's up to you. It's been so boring these days. I really want to go back and have a comfortable sleep right away."

Yaoyao was not interested in investigating the case, so she stretched herself and left calmly.

Jiang Quhan laughed out loud and stared at the token in his hand. For some reason, his originally dead heart was filled with ripples. He was actually looking forward to seeing Yaoyao's jumping expression.

Soon after, everyone returned to Kyoto with Emperor Yao's holy drive.

Huo Yunjue stayed in the paddock and took a team of guards into the mountain to search the cave.

On the way back, Cao Yanyan rode the horse given to her by Jiang Quhan, hoping to compete with him.

Jiang Quhan readily agreed.

Ning Ziqing also became interested. He got off the carriage and asked Jiang Qie to bring Jin Tao and shouted that he wanted to participate.

Su Yanqi was worried about Ning Ziqing, so he went with her.

Several people rode on horseback in high spirits and got ready.

Jiang Quhan patted the horse's head and said with a smile: "I won't give in. Feiguang has been with me for many years. It's not that easy for you to win against it."

Ning Ziqing curled her lips unconvinced and leaned over to encourage Jin Tao: "My Jin Tao is the best. We will beat Fei Guang in a while, and I will reward you with two apples."

Jiang Quhan teased her: "If you lose later, don't cry!"

Ning Ziqing glanced at him displeased.

Following Helian's order, several people rushed out instantly.

A cloud of dust rose up on the road.

When several horses passed the carriage of the prince and others in front.

The Crown Princess lifted the curtains of the car, with a bit of envy in her eyes: "Miss Ning San has a distinguished status now. I heard that His Majesty discussed with several veterans this morning and will reward her generously when he returns."

The prince was closing his eyes to rest. Hearing the words of the princess, he chuckled and said, "King Qian deliberately promoted Ning Ziqing and deliberately humiliated the second child and Concubine Yue. It's really satisfying!"

The Crown Princess lowered the car curtain and asked cautiously: "Your Highness, do you want me to go and make friends with Princess A Zhao and win over her and Prince Qian?"

The prince opened his eyes and looked at the princess with a sharp look: "A woman's view is beyond stupidity! Put away your useless thoughts, what kind of person is King Qian? With your weight, you still want to make him do it. Backer, stop embarrassing me!"

The Crown Princess was so frightened that she lowered her head and admitted her mistake with a trembling voice: "I made a mistake. Please calm down, Your Highness. I was in a hurry and wanted to share your worries for Your Highness. I didn't think carefully about it. Please forgive me."

The prince sighed softly and motioned for her to get up: "Okay, I know you are doing this for my own good."

He pulled the Crown Princess to sit on his lap and comforted him: "Although His Majesty is very dissatisfied with me now, I am still the Crown Prince of the East Palace. It is not that easy for the second son to take away this position!"

"We don't have to do anything during this period, don't worry about it, let the second child do what he wants. I think he and the fourth child seem to have some grudges, and let them fight each other, we can just watch the show in peace!"

The prince felt like a mirror in his mind. On the night of the palace banquet, he saw Huo Yunjue's nervous attitude towards Ning Ziqing, and saw that he and Prince Qian knew each other.

Seeing that they all cared about Ning Ziqing, they joined forces to stop Huo Yunhong's plot to force Ning Ziqing to get married.

King Qian hated Huo Yunhong even more because of this incident, so he was not willing to help him.

Thinking of this, the prince was secretly happy.

Without him taking action, someone would take care of Huo Yunhong for him, and he would be at ease.
