The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

"Well, the day is about to dawn. If you don't go back, I'm afraid Nanny Zhu and Mother He will have to rack their brains to think of an excuse for you." Seeing Yang Qi standing there, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had to speak first.

His Highness's words hit the nail on the head of Yang Qi's mind: "It is indeed late, I just got back home, and everyone is watching me.

Then Your Highness, Second Brother, I will go back first."

Huo Xuan smiled and nodded: "Be careful on your way, just leave this to us."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince took Yang Qi out of the house, watched the maid mount the horse, and sent an extra team of people to protect her safety.

Looking at the girl's thin clothes, His Royal Highness took off his cloak from his carriage and put it on the girl considerately: "The temperature is low at night, don't catch a cold.

If you arrive in the capital today, it will probably be dawn. If possible, take some time to rest during the day."

Looking at His Highness' smiling eyes, Yang Qi felt that she was the happiest person in the world: "Don't worry, Your Highness, Xiao Qi knows."

When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Yang Qi were showing "concern", Xiaoqing, Adu and others in the back all lowered their heads very low.

Are you kidding? There are so many people, who has the courage to watch the master under the moon and flowers? Don’t you want your eyes anymore?

It was not the first time that Yang Qi had to travel late at night when the dew was heavy.

Greedily enjoying the warmth and bamboo fragrance coming from His Highness's cloak, the smile on Yang Qi's face grew wider.

The sky gradually brightened, as if someone had painted a layer of pink on the light blue sky, and countless golden lights were hidden beneath the pink.

The search of Lingshan Temple has entered its final stage. Looking at the pieces of evidence presented from the secret room, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's eyes become increasingly darker, and the aura he exudes is extremely terrifying.

At this time, only Huo Xuan had the courage to step forward and ask, "Your Highness, how do we deal with Nian Rongchuan?"

This man finally fell into his hands. This time, he has to settle the score for all these years.

Over the years, the Fifth Prince has caused so much trouble for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, both overtly and covertly, which has also led to the incompatible relationship between Nian Rongchuan and Huo Xuan.

"Do it more cleanly and don't let his father find out anything wrong." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knew that Huo Xuan was extremely dissatisfied with Nian Rongchuan. It just so happened that he also had some things he needed to "ask" Nian Rongchuan.

Let Huo Xuan go and "say hello" first and reminisce about the past. I think when I ask questions, things will go more smoothly.

After receiving a positive answer from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Huo Xuan smiled, bowed and left.

Not long after, Nian Rongchuan was dragged into an empty room nearby and forcibly awakened by a basin of freezing cold water.

In a daze, Nian Rongchuan saw clearly the surroundings and... Huo Xuan?

"Huo Xuan, why are you here?" Nian Rongchuan's hands and feet were tied up. He struggled for a while but was unable to get free.

Huo Xuan was playing with his knife in front of Nian Rongchuan. When he heard Nian Rongchuan's words pretending to be calm, he kept moving his hands.

"Nian Rongchuan, what you said is really strange.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, under the order of His Majesty, has conducted a thorough investigation into the sale of banned drugs at Lingshan Temple.

I am the Crown Prince's man, so it is normal for me to appear in Lingshan Temple. But you, why did you come here instead of looking for milk in your own yard?"

After saying this, Huo Xuan showed a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth.

Huo Xuan is not some elegant young man who likes to quibble about words. After staying in the military camp for such a long time, he has learned some of the dirty words and jokes that the soldiers use when they are bored.

However, in front of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Huo Xuan did not dare to act rashly and did not show it.

Nian Rongchuan quickly reviewed the scene of last night in his mind. The people who knocked him out were all masked men, and their skills were very different. Except for two whose martial arts skills were so strong compared to his that it was difficult to tell, the rest were just ordinary guards.

This formation certainly doesn't look like the work of the secret guards around His Royal Highness the Crown Prince or the people around Huo Xuan.

"These are all frame-ups. Last night, I was just bored and walking on the road to digest my food, but I never expected that six extremely powerful martial arts masters would suddenly appear.

I fought desperately, but was eventually defeated by the enemy. I was knocked unconscious and brought here without any notice.

When I opened my eyes, I saw you, General Huo Xuan."

Huo Xuan's hand, which was originally playing with the knife, suddenly paused. Then, he exerted force on his wrist and the knife flew out and landed next to Huo Xuan's wrist. Because it was too close, a streak of blood was left.

Feeling the pain from his wrist, Nian Rongchuan's face darkened, and he looked at Huo Xuan with murderous intent in his eyes: "Huo Xuan, you bastard, what are you crazy about!"

Nian Rongchuan was very familiar with the temper of the second son of the Huo family, who had grown up fighting since childhood.

"Hey, Huo Xuan, you're not pretending anymore?

It should have been done a long time ago. I really don't recognize the polite and humble look on your face just now. Look, my hand was shaking and I almost hurt you.

That’s right, like father, like son.”

As soon as these words came out, Nian Rongchuan immediately jumped up: "Huo Xuan, keep your mouth shut."

Huo Xuan stood up, walked slowly to Nian Rongchuan, and kicked Nian Rongchuan hard on the calf.

Nian Rongchuan felt pain and lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Huo Xuan at this moment was completely different from the second brother in front of Yang Qi. His originally handsome face was now full of ridicule and disdain: “Nian Rongchuan, I just feel disgusted that you and I are both from the Tianyuan Dynasty.

For your own benefit, you have disregarded the interests of the entire Tianyuan Dynasty. Do you know that once all the civil and military officials in the court become drug addicts, can this Tianyuan Dynasty still be called the Tianyuan Dynasty?

These days, I see all the things you do, and I just feel disgusted. Trash like you are no different from bedbugs."

Nian Rongchuan looked at Huo Xuan with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, "Don't pretend to be holy and not involved in worldly affairs. Since ancient times, victors have been kings and losers have been bandits, and history books are always written by the victors.

Over the years, you have probably taken more lives than I have."

Now you are pretending to be righteous, which is really ridiculous.

"The lives I have on my hands are all from the Western Barbarians, the Western Barbarians who have taken the lives of the people of the Tianyuan Dynasty. Could it be that you, Huo Xuan, think there are some people who should not die?"

As he spoke, Huo Xuan's sandbag-sized fist had already landed on Nian Rongchuan's stomach.

Nian Rongchuan was a little dazed after being beaten. This man really dared to do it. Isn't he afraid of the Fifth Prince's anger?

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has warned that this man's cheap father must not appear injured, otherwise, he will make trouble in front of His Majesty and cause a bloody storm.

Therefore, Huo Xuan was very measured in his attack today, choosing the right places and avoiding the obvious injuries on his face.
