"So the eldest princess was also involved in this matter?" Su Hong pondered, "A humble village woman from Yuncheng actually asked Lan Nanxing and the eldest princess to personally protect her... Nangong Miaochu's apprentice is indeed very proud... …”

Su Wen also said, "Mother, that Zhong Ran is indeed capable. Now we..."

"Chu Gang belongs to the second princess. She offended the second princess. Only the eldest princess and the third princess are left. After this incident, it can be seen that the eldest princess intends to win over Zhong Ran. It depends on who Zhong Ran chooses. Let's wait and see. It changes.”

"Yes."

Suddenly a person walked in and interrupted their conversation.

The man who came in had a clear face and a slender figure, and he could not tell that he was over thirty. He listened outside for a while, and finally couldn't bear it and came in. He sat on the bedside and held Sophie's hand with tears streaming down his face.

"Is my son's sin in vain?" It was Su Wen's father Ming, Su Hong's most favored husband.

Su Hong stepped forward to help him, feeling sorry for him and crying, and comforted him, "Fei'er said personally that Zhong Ran is not to blame, and we are not allowed to trouble her. There must be some misunderstanding between them. Let Fei'er wake up and solve it by herself." Bar."

"Is that Zhong Ran that powerful? He actually dared to kill the second princess' sister-in-law."

"It's not clear yet. Let's just wait and see and don't act rashly. Although we are not afraid of the royal family, it is best not to face Gang directly."

"Listen to your wife." Ming wiped his tears and looked at his daughter distressedly.

Su Wen silently exited the room.

On this day, Murong Ying went to Xiaoyao Tower and heard a knock on the door. Zhong Ran, Yi Bing and Sui Huan were sitting on the lawn. Zhong Ran was lying on Yi Bing's lap and feeding Sui Huan grapes.

Two white cranes danced next to them, but their squawking sounds were unpleasant.

Zhong Ran was confused. He was so good-looking, but his quack sounded like a duck.

Today the sun is gentle and the wind is gentle, making it perfect for lying on the lawn and taking a nap.

Hearing the knock on the door, Zhong Ran lazily opened his eyelids and said, "It's finally here."

It's been five days.

Yi Bing stood up and said, "I'll open the door."

Zhong Ran took his hand and kissed it, "Good boy, go into the house. People will come here every day these days. Close the door tightly. You are not allowed to come out unless I yell."

He looked at Sui Huan again and pinched her face, "Especially you, please don't run around again and cause trouble for me."

She didn't mention the fact that he went out privately. Sui Huan knew she was wrong and didn't dare to mention it. The matter was over.

But he knew that he had gotten into trouble. Although he had forgotten the bloody scene, he still had some memories of her beating those people violently.

Sister Ran like that was strange and scary, and he would never dare to go out again.

"Yeah." Yi Bing nodded obediently and went back to the house.

Zhong Ran slowly opened the door and saw Murong Ying clasping her fists and saluting to come in. He took her to the second floor and made tea and water.

Murong Ying came in and looked around, not seeing Yi Bing, and felt a little disappointed.

Zhong Ran pretended not to see it and asked while eating melon seeds, "What happened to Ying's visit?"

Murong Ying said helplessly, "You have made such a big mistake. The world is turned upside down outside, but you act like nothing has happened. But you know I broke my leg running for you these past few days." She looked a little tired as she sipped her tea.

Zhong Ran said, "Everyone I kill deserves to die. How can the Queen not know that she is a wise ruler? What is there to be afraid of?"

Even if those scum borers die ten thousand times, it won't be enough.

"They deserve to die, but the people behind them..." Murong Ying didn't say any more, she understood everything.

Zhong Ran also knew that it would take some twists and turns to resolve the matter, so he clasped his fists and thanked her, "Thank you so much to the third princess. If my guess is correct, the eldest princess and the Lan family will also help."

Murong Ying's smile was a little stiff, "Yeah, but how did you get to know them?"

"My little sister is happy to learn martial arts at the Grand Empress's Martial Arts Hall. I had a good chat with the gym owner Du Heng, and the Grand Imperial Princess also intends to win over me." Zhong Ran said directly.

Murong Ying smiled awkwardly, and finally asked, "Then Lan Nanxing from the Lan family... you guys..."

"I helped him in Yuncheng, so we have some fate." Zhong Ran didn't say much.

Afterwards, she thought that Lan Nanxing would help, but she wasn't very sure. But seeing that no one from the yamen came, she thought it was him who took action.

Except for the dead Chu Hao and the fainted Sophie, all the others could be paid with money. If someone from the Yamen came to arrest her, it would be because the money given was not enough.

The Lan family just has a lot of money.

Murong Ying asked, "Sister Ran's promise to Ying in Yuncheng still counts?"

Zhong Ran knew what she was referring to and said seriously, "Of course I mean what I said. I never do anything that harms the people." Did he say this or not.

Murong Ying had mixed feelings. She wanted to ask her directly which side she stood on, but she was not afraid of making her unhappy. After the blood splattered in Cuilan Tower, she finally saw Zhong Ran's violence and ruthlessness.

Even Sophie, her best friend, dares to beat him up, and there is no one else she dares to offend.

But she was lucky. She knew both Du Heng and Lan Nanxing, the masters of the martial arts gym, and she had to help her.

It won't be difficult for things to calm down this time.

On the other hand, it was precisely because Du Heng and Lan Nanxing made some noise that she decided to help.

Otherwise, she would not dare to offend so many powerful people at once.

Murong Ying put away her messy thoughts and started talking about business, "The news of sending gold mines to Long Yuan has been fermenting for so long. The gold in the palace's warehouse is less than one hundred thousand, so at least one million gold must be prepared for Queen Long Yuan. The inspection convinced her that we have a gold mine, and the gold can only be obtained from the Lan family and the Su family."

When she agreed, Zhong Ran knew that she had a plan in mind, not in the palace but by the merchants.

Zhong Ran asked, "Do they give it?"

Murong Ying shook her head, "You have also seen that during this period, the emperor's sister and I took turns inviting the Lan family and the Su family to have tea and listen to music. Their attitude was ambiguous, and neither the emperor's sister nor I could tell the truth."

Zhong Ran was silent, this was not her thing to worry about.

Murong Ying added, "I think you have a good relationship with the Lansu family. Why don't you go and talk to them on my behalf? As long as they are willing to provide gold, they can choose whatever position I take in the future besides the positions of Prime Minister and Grand Tutor." "

Zhong Ran smiled and asked, "What benefits does the Third Princess give me?"

"What does Sister Ran want?" Murong Ying also looked at her intently.

"Well... I haven't thought about it yet, but I can give it a try. I can't guarantee whether it will succeed."

Murong Ying smiled brightly, "Sister Ran will definitely succeed if she takes action." She lowered her voice and said.

"The mother's health is getting worse and worse. We must hurry up. You don't have to worry about the second princess. She has the leverage in my hands. Moreover, this incident has ruined the good reputation she has worked so hard to build. She has no chance of that position. Only the imperial sister is left."

Zhong Ran didn't say a word. Seeing that she didn't answer, Murong Ying didn't say anything more and said goodbye.

But Zhong Ran noticed that before she left, she glanced at the second floor of the main building where the window was open.

Yi Bing was sitting in front of the window embroidering without a hat. Her long gown, as thin as silkworm wings, opened in a V-shape, revealing a large white chest. The sleeves were rolled up to reveal two slender arms.

He lowered his head, with broken hair flowing from his temples. Sui Huan was talking to him, and he raised his head and smiled at him from time to time.
