After rebirth, she turned around and married the emperor's uncle and tore the scumbag apart

Chapter 547 The position of Crown Princess can only be hers

Yun Ting received another pigeon letter from Yan Qing at the first midnight after arriving in Yushan County.

Something seemed to have happened in the capital again.

Only two days later, there were two urging letters, which showed that finding the Spirit Fire Grass was urgent.

He placed the note in his hand over the candle flame and did not let go until the note was about to burn his hand, and then it turned into ashes in mid-air.

He walked out of the room, turned around and went to the door of the next room and knocked on it.

"Come in."

Hearing the indifferent response, Yun Ting pushed the door open and walked in.

Seeing him come in, Xiao Changan moved his gaze away from the sand table map of Yushan County and put on a gentle smile on his face.

"Guard Yun, you're here!"

"Ah."

Yun Ting responded indifferently.

Xiao Changan came over and led him to the sand table, then happily picked up a stick and pointed it at a mountain.

"Look what I've discovered! This Camel Mountain is truly like a camel—easy to defend but difficult to attack. Only the camel's head can be entered or exited, and it's surrounded by cliffs. Presumably, the defenses near these cliffs are the weakest. If we try to get up there and attack them from both sides, they will surely be defeated."

He expressed his views confidently, turned his head to look at Yun Ting, wanting to hear his thoughts.

On the way from the capital to Yushan County, he encountered eleven assassination attempts and five poisonings. It was Yunting who noticed the abnormality and saved him from danger.

If Xiao Changan had only considered Yun Ting an ordinary servant and guard in his heart in the past, then Yun Ting was now a shining piece of gold in his eyes.

Xiao Changan thought that he had seen countless people since he was a child, and had seen many bodyguards and heroes, but he had never seen a bodyguard with such good skills as Yun Ting.

None of his men combined can compare to Yun Ting.

It's a waste of talent for such a strong man to follow that sickly Xiao Yu as a low-level guard.

Based on his achievements in suppressing bandits in Yushan County, there would be absolutely no problem in getting Yunting an official position in the court.

The prerequisite is that Yunting knows the current situation.

"How about this spot?" Xiao Chang'an pointed to the camel's right hind leg. "The terrain here is flatter than other places. It's possible to reach the summit."

Yun Ting looked at where Xiao Chang'an pointed, his brow furrowed slightly. "To successfully suppress the bandits, the right time, place, and people are all essential. I'll give your Highness a reply tomorrow after I've inspected the terrain."

What he said makes a lot of sense.

Bandits have been entrenched here for many years. Without sufficient preparation, we may not be able to successfully suppress them.

The more he looked at Yunting, the more satisfied he became.

Yun Ting was in Xiao Changan's room. He looked at the sand table with him and then began to inspect the house.

Seeing Yun Ting banging his sword around, Xiao Changan looked puzzled: "Guard Yun, what's going on?"

Yun Ting continued to knock on the wall and said calmly, "See if there are any hidden dangers in this house. Since I have been ordered to protect His Highness, I must naturally eliminate all dangers for His Highness."

Xiao Changan glanced sideways at Yun Ting, his eyes showing admiration, greed and possessiveness without any concealment.

If he can use a person who is calm, cool, brave and resourceful, there is no need to worry about not achieving great things!

Caidie strode in with a smile, "Miss, Miss Shen's carriage just entered the city."

Su Lingyue was lying down reading the book Qin Wanning brought her. When she heard this, she raised her head and her eyes lit up instantly.

"Really!"

Su Lingyue's face was filled with surprise. She propped herself up and tried to sit up, but the tearing pain in her back made her gasp and she fell down again.

At that moment, Caidie felt as if the wound on her back had split open. Then she closed her eyes and took a breath of cold air as Su Lingyue did.

When she opened her eyes again, she saw Su Lingyue lying there, her bright features wrinkled, tears in her eyes, as if she was in great pain.

"Miss, are you okay?"

Caidie hurried over to check the injury on Su Lingyue's back.

Sure enough, two bloody wounds appeared on the scab on the back, and blood was oozing out.

After reapplying the medicine and stopping the bleeding, Su Lingyue finally recovered from the pain.

Caidie advised her distressedly, "Miss, you can't be so excited these past two days. Once your wound heals, anything will be fine."

Su Lingyue lay weakly on the bed and nodded, "I know. Go find Butler Wu and ask him to spread the word."

Caidie responded and lowered her head to listen to Su Lingyue's instructions.

In the Prince's Mansion, Su Nanxing touched her slightly pregnant belly, curled up the corners of her mouth, and watched the maid in front of her peel walnuts for him.

"Be careful not to get blood on the walnut kernels. If you get blood on one place, add two more."

The maid shrank back in fear and replied hurriedly, "Yes, Crown Princess."

His hands continued to peel the walnuts, but he was more careful.

At this moment, Nanny Liu hurried in from outside the courtyard. She glanced at the maidservant with blood on her hands and advised, "Crown Princess, she's just a lowly maidservant. Why bother with her? If word gets out to the Crown Prince, it might ruin your reputation as a virtuous woman."

Su Nanxing smiled indifferently, her pretty little face full of sinisterness.

She raised her hand and lifted the maid's chin. "Baozhu, will you tell the prince that you came to my palace to peel walnuts today?"

Baozhu was so frightened that she banged her head heavily on the ground. "Princess, spare me, Baozhu has never been to your yard. I only hurt my hand accidentally."

Madam Liu looked at the domineering Su Nanxing and gently consoled her, "Even if you don't give face to the monk, you should give face to the Buddha. After all, she is the prince's concubine. Princess, for the sake of the overall situation, please be patient!"

"Pah!" Su Nanxing slammed the walnut in her hand onto the table, her face full of impatience. "Mammy, are you mine or hers?"

Madam Liu looked at Su Nanxing with a helpless look on her face, "Of course this old servant belongs to the Crown Princess."

She glanced at Baozhu, who was trembling with fear and whose hands were covered in blood, and ordered her, "You go down first."

After Baozhu left, Madam Liu tried to comfort her, "Crown Princess, we're all family members now, so we can still call you that. But once Miss He and Miss Shen arrive, you'll be below the Crown Princess, a concubine. Are you sure you still want to insist on your own way and disregard the overall situation?"

Su Nanxing then put away her unhappy expression and whispered, "Of course not, but when I think about the Crown Prince touching her, I get so angry that I can only feel better if I torture her."

Nanny Liu looked down at her, her voice growing colder, "You can't stand it now, but when the new Crown Princess arrives in the palace, you'll be treated as inferior to her. Can you handle that?"

"Miss Shen has already arrived in the capital. It's said that some people have seen her. She's incredibly beautiful, with the gentle temperament that only southern women possess. One glance at her can send anyone's whole body into a tizzy. She's truly a stunner. I heard even the Crown Prince went to meet her!"

"The future Crown Princess is already more beautiful than you, and now there's a beautiful concubine. If you lose your composure and can't win the Crown Prince's heart, how will you survive in the future?"

Hearing this, Su Nanxing angrily brushed off the teacup on the table. "One or two vixens are trying to seduce the Crown Prince! Once they fall into my hands, I won't care if they are thousand-year-old vixens. I will peel off their fox skin!"

After she finished speaking, she thought of something and asked Aunt Liu, "Isn't the city closed? How did Shen Bi get in?"

Nanny Liu said, "Miss Shen is the future Crown Prince's concubine, and the daughter of an important official who has returned to the capital from afar. His Majesty will naturally not neglect her. Tell the soldiers guarding the city to let her in. The day after tomorrow is the flower viewing banquet hosted by the Prime Minister's wife. If she wants to attend, she must come in."

Su Nanxing frowned, "Flower viewing banquet? Can the prince go?"

Nanny Liu nodded. "Of course, those attending will include not only the ladies of noble families, but also young men of marriageable age. Many of them may become the Crown Prince's dependants in the future, so the Crown Prince will naturally go."

Su Nanxing's face darkened.

She could almost foresee what would happen at the flower viewing banquet. The two vixens would definitely take advantage of the banquet to seduce the prince.

Calculating the date, as long as she gave birth to the Crown Prince's eldest son before the wedding date, it was not certain who would be the Crown Princess.

Before that, we must never let those two vixens take away the Crown Prince's heart.

Just at this moment, Su Nanxing saw Xiao Changshi coming in from outside with a happy face.

Su Nanxing stood up and called Xiao Changshi, pretending to be ignorant and asking, "Brother Crown Prince, why are you so happy today?"

Xiao Changshi narrowed his eyes slightly, and when he thought of the stunning face he had just seen, he became a little distracted and couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips.

"Nothing, just something interesting happened."

After saying that, Xiao Changshi ignored Su Nanxing and returned to the study alone.

During this period, in order to avoid rumors outside, Xiao Changshi moved back to live with her as the Queen wished, but he never touched her again.

Moreover, one day, she smelled an unfamiliar scent of powder on Xiao Changshi.

She asked several maids who served in the palace, and they said it was not theirs.

Su Nanxing tried twice, but both times Xiao Changshi angrily scolded her and interrupted her questioning.

After thinking about it, she felt that it was most likely He Qianqian's.

It must be that vixen who is seducing the prince.

This flower viewing banquet is a great opportunity. She wants to go and see what those two vixens look like!

Humph! If you don't like me, let Daddy find a way to get rid of me!

The position of Crown Princess can only be hers!
