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

In Prince Jing's tent, Song Mingli stared at the flickering candlelight in a daze.

"Mom, Mom?" Jingyou called her twice, but she didn't respond.

Jingyou's soft little hand fell on her shoulder, suddenly bringing her back to consciousness.

"What's wrong? Jingyou, are you worried about your father?" Song Mingli asked hurriedly.

Jingyou chuckled, "I haven't even asked yet, and mother confessed."

Song Mingli was slightly stunned. She confessed. What did she confess?

"I want to ask, why is mother in a daze? It turns out that mother is worried about father?"

"Don't worry, mother. My uncle and father have made sufficient preparations and will definitely be able to capture the man in black alive."

"Besides, I guess the master behind them might come to the ambush tonight. Maybe Daddy can capture their master alive!"

Looking at Jingyou's bright eyes, which were full of admiration and trust for his uncle and father, Song Mingli felt warmed in his heart.

"Well, they will be safe." Song Mingli nodded.

Chu Yanchen and two shadow guards, disguised as escorted assassins, were on their way to the imperial prison.

It was extremely difficult to extract any useful information from the assassins in three hours.

So, they discussed this strategy of luring the enemy.

Time is so tight. If the enemy wants to kill the Embroidered Uniform Envoy, rescue or silence the captured assassin, they will definitely send out their core forces.

They would not have too many people ambushing near the hunting ground. If the target was too big, it would be easy for the imperial court to discover it.

The enemy has lost twenty assassins today.

Therefore, the manpower they have left is even more limited.

But Song Mingli was still worried because he was concerned, fearing that his elder brother or Chu Yanchen might encounter some danger.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside the tent.

"You're back!" Jingyou was delighted and stood up and walked out of the tent.

Song Mingli also followed him out of the tent.

Under the torches of the camp, he could see his eldest brother Song Yanzhou and Chu Yanchen, who stood out among the crowd because of his tall stature and long legs.

And the people they escorted back were more than ten men in black.

The other men in black, whether dead or unconscious, were dragged back by the carriage.

Only Chu Yanchen, who was escorting the man in black, was conscious, and he had his head lowered, so his appearance could not be seen clearly.

Song Mingli felt suspicious. Why did Chu Yanchen escort the prisoner personally?

This mission, after all, is the mission of my eldest brother and his men.

Chu Yanchen went to help because he was worried about his son's safety and was eager to solve the case.

Song Yanzhou went to the emperor's tent to report, and then sent someone to report to the prince.

After a while, the emperor and the prince walked out of the big tent.

The guards around the emperor and the prince were holding torches, and the area in front of the camp suddenly became brighter.

Song Mingli also saw clearly the man in black who was escorted by Chu Yanchen.

"Second uncle? Is it really you?" Chu Xiyuan said in surprise, rubbing his eyes.

The emperor and the prince's gazes fell heavily on King Cheng's face.

Song Mingli looked at his son in surprise and admiration. This kid really guessed it right! The master behind the man in black came out in person.

King Cheng must be confident and sure of the outcome if he personally takes action.

Is Chu Yanchen injured?

Song Mingli quickly raised his eyes and looked at Chu Yanchen.

Chu Yanchen seemed to sense her concerned gaze and looked towards her as well.

His lips were a little pale, and I didn't know if it was because he was angry or really hurt.

But his eyes were sharp and his body remained upright. He also nodded slightly at Song Mingli, telling her not to worry.

Song Mingli also told himself not to worry too much and that the best outcome would be to catch the real culprit behind the scenes.

"Second brother! You really disappoint me. How many chances have I given you?"

"What I hate most is fratricide! But what have you done? You can't even tolerate two little kids?"

The emperor looked very unhappy.

King Cheng's behavior was undoubtedly a challenge to his authority as a father and a king.

King Cheng's knees softened and he knelt on the ground, "Father, Your Highness, I know I have committed a heinous crime! But I have a secret and I have to do this!"

"I beg my father and brother to let me speak for the sake of our relationship as father and son, and brothers. Once I have finished speaking, it will not be too late for my father to kill me."

King Cheng was so moved that he burst into tears.

Song Mingli and Chu Yanchen couldn't help but look at each other.

Chu Yanchen shook his head slightly. He didn’t know what King Cheng was up to.

"Do you have anything else to say? Say it now." The prince looked at the emperor's face and said in a deep voice.

"I beg my father and His Highness to allow me to plead my case alone..." King Cheng said as he glanced at Chu Yanchen out of the corner of his eye.

"You want to assassinate my nephew, do you have any hidden agenda?" Chu Yanchen sneered, "...Why? Second brother is plotting against me again?"

King Cheng prostrated himself on the ground in fear.

Both the emperor and the prince looked at Chu Yanchen.

Chu Yanchen stood up straight, "Second brother, why don't you just tell me straight, you raised assassins to kill my son, and tonight you killed the captured assassin halfway."

"Now you still want to stir up trouble in front of my father and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Why don't you let me hear how you plan to frame me and stir up trouble?"

King Cheng said anxiously, "It's not a false accusation! I have real evidence."

"So you are targeting me?" Chu Yanchen frowned and said, "If you want to target me, then come after me. Are you still a human being if you plot against two children?"

The prince thought about what his son had repeatedly emphasized to him.

If Jingyou hadn't hidden him and led the assassin away on his own today, he would have been in danger.

The prince also didn't want to become estranged from his fourth brother because of King Cheng.

Since his fourth brother married Song Mingli, he has become more and more aware of how to act and behave, and has become more and more like a dutiful subject. He is quite satisfied with his fourth brother.

Therefore, the prince did not intend to pamper King Cheng.

"Even if it's a trial, the plaintiff and the defendant need to confront each other in court. King Cheng, just say whatever you want to say." After the prince finished speaking, he looked at the emperor again, "What do you think, father?"

"If you want to speak, speak up. If you don't, you will be sent to the imperial prison." The emperor's face also turned cold.

King Cheng's breathing stagnated. He looked up at his father, then at the crown prince.

Finally, his gaze stopped on Jingyou.

Song Mingli felt something was not right... The way he stared at Jingyou was too cold, as if his eyes were filled with ice.

What does he want to do?

"I heard that Master Huijue gave the fate of Prince Jing a 'hidden dragon in the abyss'. I am afraid..."

Everyone around gasped.

Hidden dragon in the abyss? Does this mean that Jingyou is destined to be an emperor?

This is blatant harm!

"Second brother, your method of harming me is not smart at all!" Chu Yanchen's eyes were full of anger.

He regretted it. Why did he keep the person alive? When he caught the man outside, he should have killed Cheng Wang with one sword!

"My second brother dared to say anything to instigate harm to Prince Jing's Mansion! But before you lie, you should think clearly!"

"Even if there really is a master who can predict your fate, shouldn't you report it to your father and the Crown Prince first?"

"Why did you send people to assassinate Huang Changsun and Jingyou without saying anything?"

"Moreover, the emperor's eldest grandson saw it with his own eyes. The assassin wanted to kill him as well."
