Su Qingcheng didn't know what happened. She only heard the insults outside stopped, and what she heard was the miserable whimpering.

"Is there a possibility that she is originally from Nanye and is my king's concubine?"

The scarred man suddenly realized that in his mind Su Qingcheng instantly became a spy sent by Nanye to infiltrate the Dongling royal family. The purpose of the couple's singing was to disrupt Dongling.

His eyes glared at Ye Tantai. The pain had made him lose the ability to resist, and he could only keep making whining sounds to express his protest.

"Stop shouting. The Third Prince's people outside have been taken care of by my people. Do you think you can survive after discovering the secret of me and the princess?"

The man with the scar was heartbroken. At the last moment of his life, he saw Ye Tantai stabbing his heart with a knife.

Ye Tantai wiped the blood splattered on his face in disgust, pulled off his cloak, and felt a sense of bewilderment in his eyes.

Half a year is neither long nor short. He didn't know why Su Qingcheng left, and he couldn't ask.

The two were silent for a long time, and finally Su Qingcheng spoke first: "Thank you, King Yunan, for saving my life."

"We haven't seen each other for half a year, is the first thing you say thank you?" His voice was trembling, and the brokenness in his eyes almost made Su Qingcheng unable to hold back.

"What does King Yunan mean? Have we met before?"

She turned away, her eyes flickering, and her trembling eyelashes revealed her nervousness.

"Okay, great! I've been searching for you in Nanye for half a year, and in the end I just asked, "Have we met before..." Ye Tantai said humbly, crying, heartbroken, "I don't need to ask. Why, no matter where you have been in the past six months, can you come back to me?"

In the days without Su Qingcheng, he lived like a zombie and could only turn his attention to political affairs. But when he got the status that was lower than one person and higher than ten thousand people as he wished, he felt empty in his heart.

Tears were welling up in her eyes, and Su Qingcheng's nails were almost digging into her flesh before she could hold back the tears. How could she not be in pain during the six months without him.

But it still didn't work. She couldn't let go of Su Yizhi and follow Ye Tantai back to Nanye to be Princess Yunan. She also didn't want to involve Ye Tantai in Dong Ling's matter.

"I don't understand what King Yu Nan is talking about. Don't worry, when I return to the princess' mansion safely, I will definitely prepare a generous gift to express my gratitude."

"Princess Nan'an is too polite, but I don't need anything. What do you plan to give me as a gift?" Ye Tantai's heart sank and he spoke in a distant tone.

"There are still some things in Dongling that Nanye doesn't have. King Yunan can bring them back for freshness."

"The king is not interested."

Ye Tantai picked her up as he spoke. After being tied up for a long time, and coupled with the rough movements of the scarred man just now, she no longer had the strength to stand up and kept sitting on the ground.

The man could see through her embarrassment at a glance, and without any unnecessary movement, he hugged her neatly.

"As for the four treasures of the study and tea and porcelain, the climate in Dongling is different from that in Nanye, and the products produced are also different. The prince may be interested." The woman said.

"I don't want it. The things that Dong Ling's group of ministers sent me can no longer be piled up."

As if out of spite, he walked lamely on purpose, giving him an unsteady feeling. Su Qingcheng subconsciously hugged the man's neck, not noticing the slightly raised corners of his mouth.

"Then what King Yu Nan wants, you should not be short of gold, silver and jewelry. Naturally, I will not owe the prince such a favor."

After not seeing each other for half a year, the man's figure became more majestic. Now they were very close, and his chin would touch Su Qingcheng's forehead from time to time.

Except for his footsteps, the dungeon was very quiet. At the moment when they stepped out, the sun shone on the two of them.

"Princess Nan'an wants to repay her kindness so much, so why not pledge yourself to her?"

"I...you...can't do it, find another one."

Su Qingcheng's face turned slightly red as she pretended to be serious. She was Ye Tantai's wife, so what would happen if she got married again.

"But this is what I want. The princess may not believe it. I fell deeply in love with you the first time I saw you. I will never marry you unless I am in this life."

Seeing the change in the woman, Ye Tantai couldn't help but feel relieved, and his steps became brisk.

"What are you talking about...doesn't the prince have a princess? I am the princess of a country, so there is no reason for me to be a concubine. Besides, the relationship between the two countries is so tense now, the emperor will not agree."

Such straightforward words made Su Qingcheng a little flustered. Her mind went blank and she just wanted to quickly find a way to dispel Ye Tantai's idea.

"It turns out that what you are worried about is the relationship between the two countries. This king can handle this. As for my princess..." His voice was extremely long, with a hint of frivolity, and he even pretended to sigh, "Well, half a year ago I don’t know which wild man he ran away with, which broke my heart.”

He finally discovered that when dealing with a weird little wildcat like Su Qingcheng, you can't think like a normal person.

Obviously his method was very effective. Su Qingcheng's face turned red. She held it in for a long time and didn't know how to refute him. She couldn't excuse herself and couldn't agree to his proposal.

However, she was slightly surprised in her heart. Although she said it in a relaxed tone, she also knew that her behavior of leaving without saying goodbye half a year ago really hurt him.

"We will discuss this later." Seeing that the two of them had walked out of the dungeon, Su Qingcheng's legs recovered their strength and she jumped out of his arms nimbly.

Ye Tantai had already informed the eldest princess that rows of carriages were waiting for Su Qingcheng outside.

The eldest princess came up to her immediately and looked at Su Qingcheng worriedly: "Are you okay? Are you injured somewhere?"

"I'm fine." Su Qingcheng thought of what happened to Shen Kangnian, and something strange flashed in his eyes, "Let's go back, I have something to tell you."

"Thank you, King Yunan." The eldest princess smiled slightly at Ye Tantai, took Su Qingcheng's hand that he was holding, and left.

"Wait a minute." Ye Tantai said.

Su Qingcheng's heart suddenly rose, she was afraid that Ye Tantai would say something about her identity.

She turned around and saw Ye Tantai taking out a porcelain bottle from the person behind him and handing it to the eldest princess.

"Her wrist was scratched. This won't leave a scar."

The eldest princess paused and took it: "Thank you very much."

Only then did Su Qingcheng notice that her hand had been scratched by the thorns on the bracelet at some point, and little drops of blood were seeping out.

If she said that, Ye Tantai naturally saw her bracelet.

"I hope the princess will not forget what I just said. I speak from the bottom of my heart. I hope the princess will be ready to get married." Ye Tantai smiled softly and took a few steps back so that the carriage of the Princess Mansion could leave.

Since she wants to run away, he will chase her no matter where in the world, and he will marry her again at worst.
