After the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion was reborn, she divorced and married the prince!

She said that the troubles at home had nothing to do with the prince.

Chu Yanchen didn't like what he said.

How can things related to Jingyou have nothing to do with him!

If it had nothing to do with him, Jingyou wouldn't have gone to the palace to find him!

The little apprentice's business is his business.

"Last time I was so abrupt..."

"If your Majesty is alright, I have something else to do."

Last time in the garden of the princess's mansion, she bit his lip.

He wanted to apologize and smooth things over.

But Song Mingli didn't give him a chance to speak at all!

Chu Yanchen felt depressed. He narrowed his eyes and looked deeply at Song Mingli.

Apologize? Oh, he is so confused!

If it happens again, he will probably still be unable to control himself!

If you don't regret it, what is there to apologize for?

"You are not allowed to leave. Something has happened." Chu Yanchen said in a deep voice.

Song Mingli raised his eyes to look at him.

"Since the Gu family's troubles have been resolved, then you come with me." Chu Yanchen's tone was not negotiating.

Song Mingli saw that his face was slightly gloomy, and knew that something he had said just now might have offended him.

This big Buddha seems to be the kind of person who responds to soft words and not hard ones. There is no need to fight with him.

"Please wait a moment, Your Majesty. I have some small matters to attend to at home..."

“Gu Qingshan’s brother-in-law, the Li family, is suspected of forming a clique and is being interrogated by the Embroidered Uniform Envoy.” Chu Yanchen fixed his eyes on her face, “Don’t worry about this.”

"Someone, tell Li Tianming to take his family and get out immediately."

Chu Yanchen gave an order.

The guard outside the door bowed and left.

Song Mingli also looked at Chu Yanchen deeply.

She knew that today, His Royal Highness Prince Jing would not be so easy to deal with.

Li Tianming was scolded by the Black Armor Army and almost fainted in the carriage...

The interrogation of the Embroidered Uniform Envoy has not yet ended, so how did he provoke the Black Armor Army again?

He didn't dare ask Gu Lingyi to plead for mercy again, and quickly told the servants to drag Gu Lingyi away. The couple left the Changning Marquis' Mansion without stopping.

Chu Yanchen cut the Gordian knot and helped Song Mingli get rid of the "guest".

Song Mingli also got on his carriage, not knowing where he was going to take him.

The carriage is spacious and the aroma of tea is wafting.

Being alone in such a private space, a man and a woman, Song Mingli couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

She simply closed her eyes and rested, not even looking at the man beside her who had such a strong presence and such a powerful aura.

Although Song Mingli closed her eyes, she could still feel the burning gaze on her.

Her breathing was a little short, and her hands hanging in her sleeves were slightly clenched.

Suddenly, a light laugh was heard.

Song Mingli opened his eyelids slightly and happened to meet Chu Yanchen's smiling gaze.

"Just close your eyes and pretend that I don't exist?"

"If you don't ask, can you pretend that Jingyou's father doesn't exist?"

"Song Mingli, how could you be so good at deceiving yourself?"

Chu Yanchen looked at her seriously without blinking.

Song Mingli turned his eyes away, too lazy to pay attention to him.

She didn't pretend that Jingyou's father didn't exist, she just didn't want to pin her hopes of life on others.

She didn't want to wait for someone else to save her.

The heart-wrenching pain in her previous life made her understand that people can only save themselves and become strong.

Relying on others will only weaken your own strength.

Even if it's just emotional dependence.

"Master, we're here." The carriage arrived quickly.

Song Mingli estimated the distance. In such a short time, he was afraid that they might not even leave the capital.

Where did Prince Jing imprison Gu Qingshan?

Song Mingli looked at Chu Yanchen in surprise.

Before she could ask, Chu Yanchen said, "Don't be afraid, this is Prince Jing's Mansion, I won't do anything to you."

After saying that, he was the first to get off the carriage.

Song Mingli was a little stunned... Prince Jing's Mansion?

He just carelessly locked Gu Qingshan up in Prince Jing's mansion?

Isn’t it... too blatant?

As for whether Prince Jing would do anything to her, Song Mingli was no longer too worried at this moment.

Judging from Prince Jing's attitude towards the Song family, even if he had some "intentions" towards her, he would not be as despicable as the Gu family - robbing her of her money and killing her.

Song Mingli also jumped off the carriage.

The spaciousness, luxury, and majesty of Prince Jing's Mansion hit you in the face.

It’s worthy of the standards of a royal palace!

It really feels majestic.

Song Mingli stood up straight immediately. Compared with the Marquis's Mansion and the Prince's Mansion, it was indeed a little unsightly.

But we must not lose the battle, and our momentum must not weaken.

Chu Yanchen took a few steps first, then he looked back at Song Mingli.

But she was calm and composed, with a tall and graceful figure.

A thought suddenly occurred to him - she should be the hostess here.

"This way." Chu Yanchen walked in front with his hands behind his back.

Song Mingli followed him two or three steps behind.

The corners of Chu Yanchen's mouth curled up slightly... Is this her first time walking in Prince Jing's Mansion like this?

But this definitely won’t be the last time!

He wanted Song Mingli to be familiar with every tree and blade of grass in Prince Jing's Mansion.

Song Mingli followed Chu Yanchen in twists and turns, and she felt a little dizzy.

It’s not good that this mansion is too big. It’s easy to get lost.

Song Mingli had reason to suspect - Chu Yanchen didn't even prepare a sedan for her to ride in. Was he deliberately making trouble for her?

Just when she wanted to give in and ask him for a sedan chair.

Chu Yanchen took her to a dungeon.

Chu Yanchen is so brave that he dared to set up a dungeon in the palace!

Song Mingli couldn't help but look at him in awe... She had underestimated Prince Jing before.

Such people should be kept at a distance and should never be provoked easily.

Chu Yanchen raised his chin towards her.

Song Mingli followed his gaze and saw a man tied to a wooden frame.

The man was shirtless, with bloody whip marks all over his body.

"Gu Qingshan?"

The man had his head down, his messy hair covering his face.

Song Mingli almost didn't recognize him.

Gu Qingshan seemed to hear Song Mingli’s voice. He raised his head slowly and shook the hair that was blocking his face.

Through the gaps in his hair, he saw Prince Jing and Song Mingli.

"Hasn't he said anything yet?" Song Mingli asked in surprise.

Chu Yanchen shook his head, "He refused to say anything, he just said he wanted to see you."

Song Mingli was even more surprised.

She really didn’t expect that Gu Qingshan was so stubborn. Even after being beaten like this, he still had no choice?

This is totally unlike him!

“Come here, Song Mingli, come here and I’ll tell you!” Gu Qingshan said in a hoarse voice.

"Don't play tricks." Chu Yanchen said in a deep voice.

Gu Qingshan pulled the corner of his mouth, "I'm already like this, what else can I do?"

Song Mingli didn't want to go forward.

As for the secret that Gu Qingshan mentioned - she was actually not that curious, and it didn't matter whether she knew it or not.

But she glanced at Chu Yanchen.

But Chu Yanchen's eyes were burning, and he seemed very eager to know the answer.

Song Mingli took a deep breath and walked forward slowly, "I'm here, what do you want to say?"

“Stand closer! I’m only telling you!” Gu Qingshan said.

Song Mingli looked impatient. She took two steps forward and the smell of blood hit her in the face.

“My hands and feet are tied, how can I hurt you? Why are you standing so far away?” Gu Qingshan said to Song Mingli who was a few steps away.

Song Mingli gave him a cold look and said, "It's not that I'm afraid you'll hurt me, but... I feel sick."

Gu Qingshan: "...Don't you want to know who Jingyou's father is?"
