Unexpectedly, Su Qingcheng passed him directly and strode towards the Emperor Taisun and Liu Shilang: "What are your orders, Your Highness?"

The emperor's grandson smiled and introduced to Liu Shilang: "These two are Asheng, the chief guard and Asu, the chief maid beside me. There was a lot of misunderstanding just now."

Liu Shilang smiled generously, exuding a gentle and elegant aura. He had no contempt for the identity of the two of them. When he saw the crutch beside Ye Tantai, he just glanced at it: "Hello, you two, I'm really sorry. I'll give it to you from the capital." The intelligence that came only said that His Highness Prince Duan was coming."

He scratched his head sheepishly.

"Where is His Highness Prince Duan now?" Su Qingcheng asked.

"His Royal Highness Prince Duan is currently living in an empty house in the magistrate's office. Since he didn't know that the emperor's grandson would be coming, I can only put you in an inn today."

He did not ignore Su Qingcheng because she was a maid, but answered her questions patiently.

"It's okay, it's okay." The emperor's grandson patted Liu Shilang's shoulder, as if the two had known each other for several years and were very familiar with each other.

Su Qingcheng and the other two silently kept some distance from them. She asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Why did you subdue the emperor's grandson in just a short time?"

"Liu Shilang is said to be the son most likely to succeed Liu Dezhong." Ye Tantai did not answer her question directly, silently looking at the backs of the emperor's grandson and Liu Shilang.

"There is a problem," Su Qingcheng said calmly, her eyes sweeping around the streets of Jingzhou, "Since he is Liu Dezhong's favorite son, he must be a person of bad conduct like his father."

Ye Tantai's lips curled up slightly, but he did not continue to answer his words.

Not long after, Liu Shilang led a group of people to the door of an inn.

For some reason, the inn was surrounded by people. They pointed at the group, their eyes shone, and they clapped and welcomed them.

Su Qingcheng felt uncomfortable with such gazes. She glanced at the clothes of these people. Most of them were beggars on the street, and the doors of the shops around the inn were closed.

"Everyone, the Liu family has booked the inn. We will pick you up tomorrow to meet at the Liu family."

Liu Shilang moved the belongings of the Emperor Taisun and his party in very considerately, and did not leave until everyone was settled.

Su Qingcheng was sitting in Ye Tantai's room drinking tea, while Ye Tantai opened a crack in the window and looked into the distance, with an imperceptible trace of reminiscence flashing across his eyes.

Fu Yi and Wu Ya stood behind Su Qingcheng.

She took a sip of tea, frowned slightly, and said, "Tell me about it."

Fu Yi spoke first and said: "We have investigated the area around the inn. There is a man on the third floor opposite. There is a whole shop on the right, and the street on the left is full of people they sent to keep an eye on it."

Not to be outdone, Wu Ya said, "Fu Xingzhou lives in the Liu family's best house in Jingzhou. In addition, the Liu family has three houses in Jingzhou with a hundred acres of land."

"It is said that Jingzhou is suffering from drought and has had no tax revenue for several years. Now it seems that it has just fallen into the hands of the Liu family," Su Qingcheng sneered, with a tone full of contempt, "along the way, most of the people stayed behind closed doors. Occasionally, The few people I saw were all dressed in burlap, and the beggar in front of the inn just now seemed to be doing well."

"Jingzhou has fallen into the hands of the Liu family and Fu Xingzhou," Ye Tantai closed the window and sat down opposite Su Qingcheng. He took the tea from her hand very naturally, took a sip, and raised the corners of his mouth. , but did not panic at all, "It seems that we have fallen into a trap."

Su Qingcheng looked at each other and smiled.

"Yes, I'm afraid there will be a Hongmen Banquet tomorrow." She raised her eyebrows slightly and put down the tea cup, "Go to Liu's house and keep an eye on it. Wu Ya will be guarding the inn."

"Yes."

After all the appropriate arrangements were made, only Su Qingcheng and Ye Tantai were left in the room.

Ye Tantai leaned against the window, folding his hands on his chest. He looked quite relaxed and happy: "Won't Asu go back to his wing?"

"I'm worried about your wound, so I'll sleep here today." Su Qingcheng's expression remained unchanged. She was already very good at finding excuses to stay overnight in Ye Tantai's house.

"Okay, in that case..." Ye Tantai blew out the candles in the wing, took Su Qingcheng's hand and held it in his arms. When she realized what she was doing, she was already lying on the bed, "It'll be early then." Get some rest."

Su Qingcheng's cheeks were slightly red. Although the two had slept together many times, they had never slept together before. She struggled and said, "Let go first..."

But the person behind him didn't care about this, but he fell asleep within a moment. Su Qingcheng couldn't break free, and closed her eyes after sighing, indulging in the smell of Ye Tantai.

After a stick of incense, the man confirmed that she had fallen asleep and slowly opened her eyes. Her eyes were clear and bright, not sleepy at all.

He carefully let go of Su Qingcheng and pushed the hair on her forehead behind her ears, the tenderness in his eyes almost overflowing.

Ye Tantai climbed out of the window, and his movements were very neat and neat. Unexpectedly, he collided head-on with Wu Ya who was guarding the roof. Wu Ya was a little embarrassed and her eyes averted: "Where are you going, Your Majesty?"

There was no emotion in the man's eyes, and he was extremely cold. There was a coldness in his eyes: "It's not your business, so don't ask."

Wu Ya waved her hands and said helplessly: "I am too talkative."

"Protect her before I come back tomorrow."

"I know, if you don't tell me, I will do it." Wu Ya looked inside from the roof. The woman was sleeping soundly, looking like she was in peace.

When she turned around, Ye Tantai was no longer behind her.

"You're obviously so strong in martial arts, isn't it tiring to pretend to be a cripple all day long?" She couldn't help but mutter.

In the dark night, Ye Tantai walked on the rooftops of Jingzhou City, as if looking for something.

Three poles in the sun.

When Su Qingcheng woke up and saw the empty bed, she was a little confused. After getting dressed, she walked out of the wing.

It happened that the emperor's grandson also came to the door of the two of them. He looked tired and his eyes were a little green, and said: "Isn't Asheng here?"

"He has gone to do some errands. Let me go shopping with the emperor's grandson."

The emperor's grandson seemed to be relieved and waved his hands repeatedly: "Since A Sheng is not here, there is no need to go shopping. Let's rest in the inn today and wait for the Liu family to pick us up before going to have a meal."

"Okay." Su Qingcheng smiled gently, and the emperor's grandson walked impatiently to his private room.

After they left, Su Qingcheng quickly returned to her usual appearance, with a cold look in her eyes. She closed the door and whispered: "Wu Ya."

Wu Ya immediately came in from the window: "I'm here."

"Where did the emperor's grandson go last night?"

"Winehouse, after you fell asleep, a carriage was waiting at the door. After the emperor's grandson got in, he went to the winery three streets to the west."

Su Qingcheng frowned, as if she hated iron, and said: "He is really...forget it, let's tell him this tonight."
