"Ugh--"

When Rong Sheng heard this, his mood sank to the bottom.

She sighed heavily, wondering why Song Xuanlin could find her every time she tried to escape. Did he put some kind of locator on her?

When Song Xuanlin saw that Rong Sheng was no longer moving, he quickly jumped off the roof and walked towards Rong Sheng while breathing slightly.

He woke up slowly from a nap in the study and realized that it was getting late. However, the maid did not come to report, so he immediately got up and went to the bedroom, only to find that Rong Sheng had disappeared and the maid had also been acupunctured.

He immediately climbed over the eaves and walls, searching throughout the mansion, and finally found her at the back door.

Fortunately, he discovered it in time, otherwise the cunning woman would have escaped again!

Song Xuanlin sighed and quickly came to Rong Sheng.

He looked down at Rong Sheng's left shoulder, where fresh red blood was faintly visible on his collar. His face darkened and he asked, "Does Princess Yong'an really not take care of her body?"

Rong Sheng's expression froze, he turned around stiffly, and looked up to see Song Xuanlin's face with sunken eyes due to fatigue.

She couldn't help but think again of what happened in Prince Jing'an's Mansion last night and the conversation between the two of them.

He thought that Song Xuanlin was one of the most favored princes today, and his strength was not inferior to that of the Eastern Palace.

The most important thing is that his position is on the side of the Wei family and the Shen family.

In other words, if he wanted to complete his revenge and clear the Shen family's name, Song Xuanlin might be the best helper.

Thinking of this, Rong Sheng glanced at Song Xuanlin's clear eyes again.

Now that he knows that he is Princess Yong'an, it would be inappropriate for him to deny it.

However, Marquis Rongguo has always supported the prince, and it is contradictory for me, as the princess of the marquis's mansion, to rescue him many times.

He is cautious by nature. How can I explain it to him so that he will believe me and be willing to help me?

Rong Sheng was thinking carefully and didn't notice that the bloodstain on his chest was quietly expanding.

Seeing Rong Sheng lowering his head and not replying, Song Xuanlin couldn't help but feel annoyed: "What, Princess, are you thinking about how to deceive me again and take the opportunity to escape?"

Rong Sheng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then he forced a pale smile and said, "Your Highness, you misunderstood. You saved my life, and I can't thank you enough. How could I lie to you?"

"If that's the case," Song Xuanlin said, putting his hands behind his back, "then shouldn't you explain why you, as the legitimate daughter of the Rongguo Marquisate, were involved in everything from Ningyuan Temple to Jing'an Prince's Mansion? What was your purpose?"

"At this point, I have nothing to hide."

Rong Sheng had long guessed that Song Xuanlin would ask these questions. She raised her head with great effort and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, I am not Princess Yong'an."

"Oh, that's ridiculous." Song Xuanlin sneered after hearing this. "Do you think I will believe it?"

Rong Sheng expected this reaction, took a deep breath and continued, "You may find it unbelievable, but I am indeed not Princess Yong'an. The real princess passed away due to a serious illness several months ago. I am just her substitute."

"Then since Princess Yong'an has passed away, who are you?" Song Xuanlin asked back with a look of doubt on his face.

"To be honest, I am actually an adopted daughter of the Feng family." Rong Sheng covered his left shoulder and said with sadness in his voice, "When the Shen family was destroyed, Major General Shen Yun's mother, the eldest daughter of Feng Yuanshi, was also beheaded. The Feng family was implicated, Feng Yuanshi was demoted from the Imperial Hospital, and his family moved out of the capital."

"Not long after, due to his old age and the depression caused by the extermination of the Shen family, Envoy Feng soon became critically ill. Even though the Feng family's medical skills were so superb, they were still unable to save him."

"Before his death, the old Patriarch Feng left a will. He wanted the descendants of the Feng family to seek justice for the Shen family, otherwise he would not be able to rest in peace in his grave."

Rong Sheng became more and more sad as she spoke, and tears gradually formed in her eyes. She had heard the news of her grandfather's death from Wu Lin when she had just been reborn. He said that after her grandfather's death, the Feng family had hidden themselves in the mountains and there had been no news from them since then.

These days, whenever she thought of her grandfather's love and teachings in her previous life, she felt heartbroken and became more determined to take revenge.

Rong Sheng collected his thoughts and wiped his eyes. His voice became uncertain due to his weakness: "Although I was adopted, I have lived a life of luxury in the Feng family since I was a child. The Feng family has been very kind to me. Three years ago, I volunteered to come to the capital alone and practiced martial arts for three years."

"A few months ago, I seized the opportunity and disguised myself as Princess Yong'an to sneak into the Rongguo Marquis's Mansion, intending to use this identity to fulfill the last wish of Patriarch Feng."

"It's full of loopholes," Song Xuanlin shook his head before Rong Sheng finished speaking, interrupting coldly, "Don't think you can convince me by moving out of the Feng family. The Feng family is not a martial arts family at all. How could you sneak into the Rongguo Marquisate so easily? And if you are really a member of the Feng family, how can you recognize Lu Song, the former deputy general of the Shen family army."

"Of course I can't do it alone," Rong Sheng controlled his shaky body and replied calmly, "Of course I have the help of the former Shen family army. My martial arts were also taught to me by that person."

"Shen's Army?!"

When Song Xuanlin heard the name of Shen's army, his eyes lit up immediately. He forgot to think for a moment. He excitedly grabbed Rong Sheng's shoulders and said, "Did you really find the surviving soldiers of Shen's army?"

"hiss--"

Rong Sheng's left shoulder was pressed so hard that it hurt, and then the world began to spin in front of his eyes.

Seeing Rong Sheng unable to straighten his back due to pain, Song Xuanlin finally realized his mistake. He quickly let go of his hand, only to find his hands were covered in blood.

He raised his eyebrows and was about to look up, but saw Rong Sheng's thin body suddenly fall straight into his arms.

His heart skipped a beat and he quickly looked down, only to see Rong Sheng limp all over, leaning powerlessly in his arms, his eyes closed, his face growing paler.

It turns out that she had been holding on...

When Song Xuanlin thought of this, he suddenly felt inexplicably heavy in his heart. He quickly picked up the unconscious Rong Sheng and walked quickly towards his bedroom.

At this moment, night has fallen, and the entire Ming Palace is shrouded in quiet moonlight.

Song Xuanlin held Rong Sheng carefully, afraid of hurting her.

At this time, several people were walking towards this side from a distance.

Song Xuanlin looked carefully and saw Lu Yue and a few of his men, holding lanterns and looking around.

Lu Yue walked in front, holding the lantern high, and carefully observed the surroundings of the palace. Suddenly, he found a man walking slowly towards him not far away.

As the man got closer, Lu Yue realized it was Song Xuanlin.

"Your Majesty!"

Lu Yue hurriedly led a few people to Song Xuanlin, bowed his head and said: "Your Highness, I am on patrol."

"Well, no courtesy."

Lu Yue straightened up in response, but suddenly found that there was a thin woman in Song Xuanlin's arms.

He was so shocked that he forgot to blink.

The sun really rose from the west, the prince actually brought a girl back!
