Yun Shang led the way on horseback and returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion in less than a quarter of an hour.

Wen Shaoli kept looking for opportunities to escape along the way. Later, she found that there was no hope of escape and looked around. Her Yan'er would definitely come to help her after learning about this. She must not be carried in through the small door like this today.

Finally, when she was about to enter the Prime Minister's Mansion, she saw a group of people running from the other end of the alley.

Wen Shaoli breathed a sigh of relief, the person was finally here!

Yun Shang also saw the pair of people, the royal guards. Unexpectedly, Yun Yan could even mobilize the royal guards. The Queen Mother liked Wen Shaoli more than she thought.

but!

How can it be?

"Uncle Zhou, send Aunt Wen to the entrance."

Yun Shang is blocking the street with a whip in hand. No one can stop her today!

These old people in the Hou Mansion may change soon. They know that those people are here to rob people, so they must not let people be robbed, otherwise it will not be so easy to stop them next time.

Knock knock knock!

"Open the door!"

The side door of the Prime Minister's Mansion was closed tightly. You could hear someone inside, but no one opened the door.

Yun Cang entered the palace, but his people returned to the palace in advance and blocked the door, saying that no one could enter.

The people who came from a distance to watch the excitement were all curious about whether people could enter through this door today.

Once you walk through this door, you are a concubine!

During the knock on the door, the royal guards also arrived and were about to rush over to snatch the person away.

Yun Shang glanced into the distance and saw a soft sedan at the end of the alley. The curtain of the sedan was opened through a gap, revealing half of her face - it was Yun Yan.

Yunyan is even more unable to accept Wen Shaoli as a concubine than Wen Shaoli.

There was a world of difference in status between a concubine and a legitimate daughter. Yunyan was very ambitious. She wanted to marry into the prince's palace and become the most noble woman in Chu.

If she were a concubine, even if she married into the prince's palace, she would only be a concubine.

Even if the prince ascends to the throne one day, she will still be a concubine at most and will never be able to become a queen.

The two people's eyes met, and they could see each other's provocation.

Today is their first duel!

"Step aside."

The royal guards had already rushed over, weapons in hand, shouting.

Yun Shang tightened the whip in her hand. These people are different from the guards of the prime minister's palace. They represent the royal family. If they take action——

but!

No matter what, even if she was executed, they would not let them take her away.

"Uncle Zhou, smash the door!"

Since the door won't open, break it open.

Uncle Zhou and others obeyed the order. They were people who had attacked the city on the battlefield. How could they be stopped by this small gate?

Yun Shang clenched the whip in her hand. No one can stop her today!

The leading guard looked at Yun Shang, "We are working on behalf of the emperor, do you want to commit the following crime?!"

Once Yun Shang takes action, he can be punished.

Just when the two sides were about to get into trouble, another group of people came over, wearing the same clothes as the guards of the Hou Mansion.But this team is obviously stronger than the team Yun Shang brought out before.

The people Yun Shang brought were remnant veterans who had nowhere to go and were raised by the Hou Mansion.

And this team is the bodyguard of the Zhengba Jing of the Hou Mansion. The elite soldiers of the Hou Mansion were personally trained by the Prince of the Hou Mansion to protect the Zhongyong Hou.

Seeing this team, the identity of the people coming is self-evident.

Sure enough, this group of people was followed by a black carriage, which slowly stopped between Yun Shang and the royal guards. A lazy and cold voice came from the carriage.

"My lord, I don't know what the purpose of Lin Guard bringing people to the Prime Minister's Mansion is? Ahem..."

The sound fell, and there was a slight cough.

As everyone knows, the prince of the Zhongyong Hou Mansion has poor health and seldom appears in public. He never expected to appear here today.

Guard Lin looked slightly cold and didn't know how to answer.

He was a guard guarding the Royal Villa and helped Yun Yan rob people.It would be fine if he snatched the person away in one go, but now that he was stopped, he didn't know how to answer.

Even if he was working for the royal family, it would not be his turn.

What's more, this person is Xie Qing'an.

Xie Qing'an is the youngest son of Marquis Zhongyong. He was brought back from outside by Marquis Zhongyong 18 years ago and said to be his son born outside, the young master of the Hou family.

However, there are also rumors that Xie Qing'an is not the son of Zhongyong Hou, but actually the son of the eldest son who died young.Because his biological mother was born in a wealthy family, she was raised by Marquis Zhongyong so that he could inherit the title of Marquis Zhongyong.

No matter which one it is, it will not affect Xie Qingan's status.

Although the young Marquis has poor health and has been recuperating at home all year round, no one dares to look down upon him.

Eight years ago, when he was ten years old, he met a dandy disciple in the capital when he left his home and wanted to bully him. Later... the dandy's legs were broken and he still can't get up.

Five years ago, when he was 13 years old, he went to the palace with Marquis Zhongyong to attend a banquet. During the banquet, someone was looking for trouble, intending to frame Marquis Zhongyong.He argued with the ministers and rendered the eloquent ministers speechless.

From then on, it became a blockbuster.

Emperor Wen of Chu admired him very much and wanted to grant him an official position, but he declined due to his weak health. Many people felt sorry for him.

Three years ago, he was 15 years old...

Even if he rarely shows up, he is still the talk of the capital.

It was said outside that this prince of the Hou Mansion was handsome, with a face as beautiful as a jade. Although he had not yet entered an official position, he was talented and was the number one son in the capital.

If it weren't for his health, he might have become a lowly official in the court.

Yun Shang didn't expect Xie Qing'an to come. In fact, she was not close to this uncle, and they couldn't say a few words except to say New Year's greetings.

Everyone in the family doted on her, except this little uncle.

Later, something happened to the Xie family, and she blamed him in her heart, blaming him for not being an official in the court despite being so talented. If he had established a foothold in the court, there wouldn't be anyone who could speak for the Xie family.

until--

Xie's family was ransacked, and the emperor sent people throughout the city to hunt for her and her grandfather. He rescued them by himself.

pity……

She eventually got her grandpa and him into trouble.

Similarly, it was only after she was arrested that she found out that he was not her uncle at all, nor was he the child left by her elder uncle as outside rumors said.

Xie Qingan, he is the prince of the Southern Kingdom!

Yun Shang already owed him in her previous life and didn't want to involve him in this life, but she didn't expect him to come anyway.

The atmosphere became increasingly tense and depressing. Lin Wei was a royal guard after all. If he left like this today, he would be a disgrace to the royal family, and he would definitely be punished if he returned.

But if he stayed, he didn't dare to challenge Xie Qing'an.

Lin Wei cursed Yun Yan secretly in his heart for insisting on staying here. He didn't believe that Xie Qingan would not care about the royal family's face.

Boom!

Just when the two sides were on the verge of a fight, there was a huge sound.

The side door of the Prime Minister's Mansion was smashed open.

Not only the door, but also the wall was smashed. It looked more like a dog hole than a door.

"The door is open, welcome Aunt Wen in!"

This shout was so loud that the people who were hiding in the distance to watch the excitement could hear it clearly.

Wen Shaoli's heart suddenly went cold. She knew that there was nothing she could do about this matter today...
