"Help... Help!" She shouted for help, wanting the guards outside the door to come in and protect her, but after shouting a few times, there was no movement outside the door.

"Does Empress Xiurong think that I came here alone?" Jiang Xue's smile was filled with sarcasm. Ever since she drank the cup of medicinal wine in the Prince's Mansion, she knew that Shangguan Jin had murderous intentions towards her.

"Miss Mo Er, are you also wondering why I woke up so quickly after drinking the medicinal wine?" Jiang Xue turned to Mo Huan and said to her serious eyes:

"Qian Country is the most proficient in pharmacology and witchcraft among the ten countries. Moreover, I have been taking various medicines since I was a child. My body has long been adapted to the medicines. Ordinary medicines are ineffective on me."

Mo Huan widened her eyes in surprise. She didn't expect that Princess Changle was actually a monster.

That's why she was able to sober up so quickly, because she was never under the influence of drugs in the first place.

"Then why did you pretend to be poisoned and let me bring you here?" Mo Huan asked.

"The Prince's residence is heavily guarded. The Prince only invited my brother and me to the celebration banquet. If I had acted unaffected at the time, the Prince would have been more alert. Only if he believed that my plan had worked would he let down his guard. Then I would have a chance to sneak into the Prince's residence and rescue my brother."

Mo Huan was once again shocked by Jiang Xue's courage and forethought. Although she had seen Jiang Xue's abilities before, she was still awed by the strategy that was aimed directly at her today.

If it were me, I would probably be powerless to fight back.

Jiang Xue is by no means an easy person to deal with, and Mo Huan began to worry about what kind of revenge he would face next.

After all, she was the one who set up the trap to take the other person's life.

"Miss Mo, do you have any other questions?" Seeing Mo Huan fall silent, Jiang Xue turned her attention to Wang Xiurong, "Then, it's Wang Xiurong's turn to answer for me."

"Madam Xiurong, where is Lord Wang Changqing now?"

After all, although Wang Ruixuan and Wang Xiurong are blood siblings, they have had almost no contact in the past decade.

Wang Xiurong was not close to her brother, but she got into trouble many times because of his affairs. She thought this was due to the influence of Wang Changqing.

Faced with Jiang Xue's coercion, Wang Xiurong chose to remain silent. She was unwilling to reveal her father's whereabouts, nor was she willing to satisfy Jiang Xue's intentions.

Seeing this, Jiang Xue raised her lips slightly, seemingly not caring about Wang Xiurong's resistance. "It's okay." She said, with a hint of amusement in her eyes, "There's always a way to make you speak."

Facing Jiang Xue's threat, Wang Xiurong closed his lips tightly and remained silent.

Seeing this, Jiang Xue did not act immediately, but waited patiently. Mo Huan, who was watching all this, felt a chill in her heart. She realized that this time they might have really touched a difficult person.

"If you still don't tell me, then I'll have to take other measures." Jiang Xue's tone was calm, but it made people feel nervous.

In the end, under Jiang Xue's relentless pressure, Wang Xiurong had to reveal Wang Changqing's hiding place in order to protect himself and his father.

After learning the required information, Jiang Xue left with satisfaction, leaving Wang Xiurong alone with mixed feelings.

"Wait." When Jiang Xue was about to leave, Mo Huan hurriedly stopped her.

"Miss Mo, what can I do for you?" Jiang Xue stopped and turned to ask.

"Aren't you going to deal with me?" Mo Huan asked doubtfully.

According to common sense, a woman like Jiang Xue would not easily forgive betrayal.

"You should feel lucky that someone put in a good word for you."

Jiang Xue pushed open the door, and the person standing outside surprised Mo Huan at first, and then his expression became a little lost.

"Mr. Mo Chen thanks the princess for her magnanimity."

“Young General, considering your friendship with Yun Che, I can let this matter go this time. But if there is a next time, even if you beg for mercy it will be useless.” Facing Mo Chenjun’s bow to apologize, Jiang Xue whispered.

"Princess, don't worry. I will persuade my second sister and make sure she won't cause you any more trouble." Mo Chenjun promised solemnly.

"That's good." Jiang Xue nodded, turned and walked into the waiting carriage.

"What's the situation?" Xiao Zhan was waiting for her in the carriage. When he saw her come in, he pulled her to sit next to him.

When he opened the car curtain and saw Mo Chenjun with a serious expression outside, Xiao Zhan sighed inwardly.

If Mo Chenjun hadn't come in person to plead for mercy, Mo Huan wouldn't have been let off so easily.

Jiang Xue is the woman he has decided to protect with his whole life, and anyone who threatens her safety will have to pay the price.

"Do you think Mo Huan will stop here?" Jiang Xue shook her head in response, then followed Xiao Zhan's gaze to look at the brother and sister outside.

Xiao Zhan didn't say anything, but just looked at Mo Huan deeply.

As the prince's concubine, Mo Huan has no choice in some things. As long as Shangguan Jin still harbors hostility towards Jiang Xue, she has to take action.

Mo Chenjun understood this, which was why he always maintained a serious attitude.

This time he begged Xiao Zhan to spare Mo Huan for his sake, but what about next time?

Xiao Zhan and Jiang Xue have made it clear that this is the last time they will tolerate it.

If Shangguan Jin lets Mo Huan harm Jiang Xue again, Xiao Zhan really doesn't know how to respond.

Mo Huan was from the Mo family and was his second sister, while Xiao Zhan was his best friend since childhood. He didn't want to hurt either side.

Faced with such a dilemma, Mo Chenjun was caught in a dilemma and could easily make a choice that went against his heart.

"I just hope that the moment of confrontation with Chen Jun will come later."

After a long time, Xiao Zhan lowered the curtain with a wry smile, held Jiang Xue's hand tightly and said, "I hope Shangguan Jin will stop forcing Mo Huan."

Jiang Xue also sighed helplessly. Things in the world are always so bumpy and tortuous.

At this time, Tieyi lifted the curtain and reported to the two masters in the car: "Your Highness, the Prince's Mansion seems to have discovered something. When our people sneaked in, Master Huaichen had already been transferred away."

"Does anyone have any clues about where he was transferred to?" Jiang Xue asked anxiously.

She had expected this day to come. Shangguan Jin was able to obtain the throne while the previous crown prince was still alive, which shows that he was very shrewd and scheming.

His intelligence network covers a wide range, so it is not surprising that he knew about the operation in advance. If he really kept the people in the Prince's Mansion as planned, it would be abnormal.

"Princess, please rest assured. Our spies are following the clues and will have news soon." Ever since he learned that the knife attack on the west gate tower was not made by Jiang Xue, Tieyi's attitude towards her changed drastically and he became more respectful than before.

Xiao Zhan was very satisfied with this and ordered: "Continue tracking and report immediately if there is any new situation."

"As ordered!"

Jiang Xue pondered, "Where would Shangguan Jin hide my brother?" Judging from the situation in the underground secret room of the Fourth Prince's Mansion, the terrain of Beixi is flat, which is very suitable for building a hidden dungeon.
