The useless princess is causing trouble again

In the side courtyard garden.

Shangguan Wei turned around and saw Situ Chong and Ze Ren. Her eyes kept wandering around Ze Ren, as if she had seen him somewhere before. She stared at him without blinking.

Situ rushed forward and pulled Shangguan Wei into his arms, saying somewhat unhappily, "Madam, have you seen enough? He is not as good-looking as your husband. Your husband has been standing here for a long time without any response."

Shangguan Wei raised her head and said, "My husband is jealous, his words are so sour."

Situ Chong pouted, "She's very jealous. She went out for a day and didn't come to see her husband the first thing she did when she came back."

Shangguan Wei caressed Situ Chong's chest and said, "My dear husband, I went out to do some serious work and get back what I owe you."

Situ Chong glanced at the horses frolicking in the yard and said, "Madam, you have so many horses. Where should I live?"

Shangguan Wei laughed, "Haha, it will be fine after a while. I decided to rebuild the palace. For the time being, my husband will live with them and treat them as guards."

Situ Chong shook his head helplessly and smiled, "Okay, as long as Madam likes it." He waved to Ze Ren and continued, "Madam, he will be your close bodyguard from now on."

Ze Ren walked forward, knelt on one knee, and said respectfully, "Princess, I am Ze Ren, and I am willing to follow your orders."

Shangguan Wei lowered her head and examined him. "Ze Ren, please stand up. You don't have to kneel down in front of me. Remember to protect yourself first when there is danger. Always be prepared to take a beating."

Zeren was stunned for a moment, then answered yes.

What do you mean, princess? I am capable of fighting ten people at once.

"Alright, if you have nothing else to do, please leave. The king and the princess have something to discuss."

"Yes, I obey."

"My husband, what do you want to discuss with me?"

"Just follow me and I'll take you to a place."

Situ Chong pulled Shangguan Wei to the right, walked around several corridors and two gardens, and came behind the rockery.

"Madam, there are two passages below. From here, take the left one to exit the mansion."

"Oh, what about the one on the right?"

"Your husband will take you there now and tell you when we get there."

"Okay, let's go."

After a stick of incense had passed, it was already dark.

Situ Chong led Shangguan Wei to a luxurious room, and the exit of the secret passage was set on the bed.

"My husband is very experienced, and his words are very clever here."

"Madam, follow your husband to see someone."

"OK."

Situ Chong picked up Shangguan Wei, walked to the wall behind the screen, and kicked the corner of the display case with his left foot, and the wall slowly opened from both sides. In the dim candlelight, Situ Chong walked forward with ease until he reached the secret room at the end.

"Leng Qi, come out."

Situ Chong put Shangguan Wei on the mahogany chair and turned to sit next to her.

Leng Qi appeared from the darkness, wearing a tight blue suit that made him look tall and slender. His sharp face and purple eyes gave him an extremely exotic look.

He knelt on one knee, bowed and said, "Yege Lengqi, I greet the master, madam."

Situ Chong waved his hand, "We are all family, stand up and talk."

"Yes, master."

"What did you ask me to do before?"

Leng Qi sat on the left side below. "On the way, they encountered a large number of men in black who tried to assassinate them. Magistrate Wu was shot dead by the assassins."

Situ Chong raised his eyes and looked forward. "It was expected that Magistrate Wu would be assassinated. There were traces of assassination left at the scene."

Leng Qi shook his head helplessly, "All the men in black are dead soldiers, there are no marks on their bodies, and the only survivor died from biting his tongue and poisoning, so there is no way to find out his identity. I have failed to do my job well, please punish me severely."

Situ Chong closed his eyes. "Don't blame yourself. I was also assassinated on my way back to Beijing. That person couldn't hold back any longer. You need to be more careful in what you do next."

Leng Qi answered yes, and then asked, "Master, there are people from Tianxin Country moving around secretly in the capital. According to investigation, they are Princess Sang Gong Mingyue and Prince Leng Gong Sen of Tianxin. They have close contacts with the Crown Prince."

"Got it. Send someone to keep an eye on them."

Situ Chong placed his right elbow on the armrest, supported his chin with his fist, and spoke casually.

"There's nothing to do here, please leave."

"Yes, I am resigning."

Leng Qi stood up, bowed and retreated.

Situ Chong looked at Shangguan Wei, "Madam, what are you looking at so intently?"

Shangguan Wei hung her head. "The design of the mechanism here is very ingenious. Even I am ashamed of myself."

Situ Chong stood up, took Shangguan Wei's right hand and walked out, "Madam, don't belittle yourself. You are better than him, and he admires his wife very much."

Shangguan Wei understood what he heard, "Humph, my husband knows how to use mechanical formations, it turns out he was hiding his incompetence before."

"I am a very stupid husband, so I dare not act rashly in front of you. You are much more capable than me."

"It's just a matter of words."

"Well, it's all my fault, Madam, please forgive me. We will have dinner here, and then I will show you the Night Pavilion."

"Okay, I forgive you, let's go eat."

……

The Prince's Mansion in the East Palace.

In the study room of the main courtyard, Prince Chen Situ Ying sat on the side seat, his face full of indignation, and he slammed his right fist heavily on the table, "Brother Crown Prince, I cannot swallow this anger. The woman that the bastard brought back is too abominable. She actually dared to humiliate me in the street."

Situ Yu sat in the main seat, took a sip of tea and put it down, saying in a relaxed tone, "Don't be angry, Third Brother, or you will be the one who suffers from it. That woman is just a girl from the countryside after all, she doesn't know the rules, and she will suffer the consequences sooner or later in a powerful place like the capital."

Situ Ying was invigorated when he heard this. "Brother Crown Prince, why do you say that? I am stupid, please explain clearly."

Situ Yu raised his lips, "After she made a scene today, the matter has reached the ears of the emperor. In addition, Concubine Chen and Concubine Yuan have a grudge against her. I am afraid that the emperor will be furious and summon her tomorrow without you and me taking any action."

Situ Ying's face lit up. "My brother, the Crown Prince, is very pleased with your words. I hate that wild girl so much. Not only is she mean, but she is also very skilled in martial arts. Especially the guards around her. Although they did not attack her at the time, they gave off a chill."

Situ Yu thought for a moment, "Compared to A-Mo, who is more powerful?"

Situ Ying shook his head, "It's hard to say, after all, the two have never competed." Suddenly he remembered something and asked, "Brother Crown Prince, that bastard rejected the marriage between Princess Huaixi and Miss Ruan. Did Father make trouble when he entered the palace today?"

Situ Yu curled his lips and sneered, "Father naturally made trouble and withheld his salary for two years, asking her to welcome Princess Huaixi and Miss Ruan into the family next month, but the lowly fellow walked out in front of all the civil and military officials in the court."

Situ Ying slapped his left thigh happily, "Hahaha, this bastard just doesn't know how to appreciate a favor. He will suffer for offending our father."

Then he sighed, "I just can't bear to not see that woman suffer."

Situ Yu's eyes became deep, "Don't worry, she will be in trouble tomorrow. Father and Miss Ruan will cause trouble for her."

"Okay, I'll wait and see."
