Quick Wear: The Villain's Beloved

Lan Qian was waiting for Mo Chen to come back in the cave when she suddenly heard some noise outside, as if a lot of people were searching for something. Then, she heard a surprised voice.

"Deputy Captain Zhao, there is a cave here!"

This is... Emperor Yan's man!

Lan Qian's eyes narrowed slightly.

She stood up, and after a while a figure walked in. It was Zhao Mingze, the deputy captain of the Imperial Guard.

"Meet the Ninth Princess."

Zhao Mingze bowed and looked around the cave. He saw that although the Ninth Princess was the only one here, the outer shirt spread on the ground was clearly a man's clothing.

Humph, it seems that the secret guard is not dead yet.

He retracted his gaze and said, "Your Majesty was very worried when he heard that the Ninth Princess fell off a cliff, so he ordered me to lead the Imperial Guards to find the princess and escort her back to the palace. Now that you see that the princess is fine, Your Majesty can rest assured."

"Princess Nine, please follow me back to the palace."

"What if I don't come back?"

Lan Qian glanced at him and spoke in a cold voice.

"How can the Ninth Princess, who is worth a lot of gold, stay in this simple cave? Besides, His Majesty is very worried about you. Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about His Majesty." Zhao Mingze persuaded.

He would kill the secret guard after the Ninth Princess returned to the palace.

When the time comes, he will just find a reason and say that the secret guard was killed by his enemy. The Ninth Princess will never think that he was the one who did it. When he brings the princess back to the palace, it will be a great achievement. The princess will definitely change her mind about him, and after a while he will go to ask His Majesty to grant her marriage.

Lan Qian didn't want to see him, so she turned around and said coldly:

"You go out first. I have to wait for Mo Chen to come back."

The original plan needs to be changed. Now that they have discovered her whereabouts, faking her death may not work. She has to find another way.

"Ninth Princess, your humble servant..."

Zhao Mingze looked up and was about to say something when he suddenly saw a conspicuous red mark under the Ninth Princess' ear. The color of the red mark had faded a little, and it seemed that it had been there for quite some time.

In an instant, his face turned very gloomy.

He already had a concubine in his house, so he naturally knew what such traces meant. How dare that lowly secret guard!

"Princess, I will wait for you outside."

Zhao Mingze changed his mind and left only two imperial guards guarding the cave entrance, and took the others to find Mo Chen.

Lan Qian didn't know that Zhao Mingze had received an order to kill Mo Chen, otherwise she wouldn't be waiting here. Besides, as far as she knew, Emperor Yan thought highly of Mo Chen, and Mo Chen saved her again this time, so even if he returned to the palace, Mo Chen would not be punished.

She lowered her eyes slightly.

Emperor Yan actually sent the imperial guards who were guarding the palace directly over. It seemed that it would not be easy for her and Mo Chen to leave.

If it doesn’t work this time, we’ll have to wait until next time.

……

Inside the palace, the imperial study.

"Is all this true?"

Emperor Yan stood up from the dragon throne, his face full of disbelief. The piece of letter in his hand, which contained the whole story, felt like a stove, making him feel extremely hot.

"I would never dare to deceive your majesty. Mo Chen's secret guard is indeed your bloodline," the secret guard who had gone to investigate Mo Chen's background said while kneeling, "When the virtuous concubine left the palace, she was already pregnant."

"What about Concubine Xian?"

"The queen passed away after giving birth to the little prince. The little prince was originally taken care of by a maid who followed the queen out of the palace. The maid wanted to send the little prince back to the palace, but she suddenly fell ill on the way and passed away. From then on, the little prince was left to wander outside."

But I didn't expect that the little prince would enter the Dark Guard Camp.

After hearing the secret guard's words, Emperor Yan seemed to have suffered a huge blow. He could not help but take two steps back and fell back onto the dragon throne.

Xianfei, he still remembered that she was a gentle woman.

He brought it back during one of his incognito visits.

But she didn't like the palace.

She had never smiled in the palace. He was soft-hearted and let her leave the palace, allowing her to return to her hometown and live a good life.

Unexpectedly, she left him a child.

"quick!"

He suddenly thought of something and spoke hastily.

"Send the message to the commander of the Dark Guard Battalion, quickly!"

"Yes!"

Although the secret guard had doubts, he went down immediately.

-

Mo Chen met Zhao Mingze on his way back. He had picked quite a few fruits, enough for him and the little princess to eat on the way.

But I didn’t expect that people from the palace would come here so quickly.

"It's you."

Mo Chen frowned slightly.

This person had wanted to harass the little princess before.

"Mo Chen," Zhao Mingze's face was very gloomy, a sinister look flashed in his eyes, he took two steps closer, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "The Ninth Princess ordered me to kill you."

"What did you say!"

Mo Chen's face darkened, and his hand rested on the sword at his waist, as if he was going to draw the sword and kill him in the next moment.

"What, you don't believe it?"

Zhao Mingze sneered and stared at him.

"You defiled the Ninth Princess, didn't you?"

Hearing this, Mo Chen's body paused slightly. How could Zhao Mingze know about what happened between him and the little princess... Seeing this, Zhao Mingze was even more certain that something had happened between them, and anger rose in his heart.

"Her Highness the Ninth Princess is a precious body, how can you, a lowly secret guard, insult it? If you die, no one will know about this humiliation. The Ninth Princess is still the most honorable princess of my Yan Dynasty, so you must die!"

"I won't believe you."

Mo Chen gripped the hilt tightly, his black eyes cold and dark.

His little princess wouldn't want to kill him.

will not.

"Humph," Zhao Mingze looked at him mockingly, "The Ninth Princess has been escorted back to the palace by the Imperial Guards. She doesn't want to see you again. You are the only shame in her life, and you should disappear forever!"

Mo Chen didn't want to listen to him anymore, he wanted to go back to see the little princess.

He only believes in his little princess.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Zhao Mingze immediately ordered:

"Stop him and kill him on the spot!"

As soon as he finished speaking, countless imperial guards blocked his way. Mo Chen's eyes darkened and he started fighting with them.

With Mo Chen's martial arts skills, it would be no problem for him to deal with them, but the other side had too many people and surrounded him in layers. Mo Chen had some concerns in his heart, so he did not kill these royal guards. During the fight, he unknowingly moved towards the river.

A while had passed and Mo Chen still had the upper hand.

Seeing that he was about to break out of the encirclement, Zhao Mingze was anxious. No matter what, Mo Chen must die here today. He came up with a plan and suddenly shouted behind Mo Chen: "Ninth Princess, why are you here?"

Mo Chen paused and couldn't help but look back.

But at this moment, someone took advantage of the opportunity.

A sword pierced his chest, and then Zhao Mingze used his internal force to attack him. Mo Chen was knocked flying and fell into the river.

In the distance, the commander of the Dark Guard Camp just arrived at the entrance to the bottom of the cliff and saw Mo Chen falling into the river.

It seems he is a step late.

Without bothering to read out His Majesty's latest decree to Zhao Mingze, the commander of the secret guards made a prompt decision and immediately ordered the rescue of people.

"Quick, go down and find someone!"

"We must rescue them!"
