After returning from rebirth, the eldest sister of Hou family destroyed her household registration b

"Before I entered the Marquis' Mansion, I followed my business owner twice. I remember clearly that I can indeed pass through this forest, and the time is very fast." The servant said firmly.

"Okay, in that case, you will lead the way later." Chu Huanyan said.

"Yes, I obey your orders." The young man responded hurriedly.

After half a stick of incense, Chu Huanyan and his party continued to set off, while the boy who had just spoken began to lead the way.

"Miss, it's still a long journey, why don't you take a rest first?" Xian Yue looked at Chu Huanyan who was leaning against the wall of the carriage, not knowing what to think, and said.

Chu Huanyan came back to her senses and nodded in response.

Xianyue had laid out a soft pillow, but not long after Chu Huanyan leaned on it, the carriage suddenly stopped.

"What's going on?" Xianyue opened the curtain and asked outside with a frown. However, when she saw the person blocking the carriage clearly, her expression changed, "Miss..."

Chu Huanyan also saw people outside. She stepped out of the carriage and looked around. This place happened to be on the other side of the forest. Although it was empty, it was also secluded.

"It's probably not a coincidence that I met the third prince and senior brother here." Chu Huanyan said calmly, her eyes sweeping over the boy who had just led the way.

The latter took a few steps to distance himself from Chu Huanyan and the others, then he cupped his hands and said, "Miss, I'm sorry."

Chu Huanyan stared at the boy, "Since you deliberately brought me here, what about the teacher's illness?"

"Junior sister, you can rest assured. The teacher and junior wife are both fine and nothing happened." Mu Feng said.

Chu Huanyan was stunned for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief, "It seems that my senior brother started to lie to me before at Chu Huaishan's house."

"There's nothing I can do. Junior sister is usually very cautious. In addition, there are people left by His Highness the Crown Prince to protect you secretly. If you are in the imperial city, you really don't have a chance to do anything." Mu Feng looked at Chu Huanyan intently. Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Xiao Rongxuan who was riding a horse next to him, "As the third prince's retainer, I naturally have to contribute."

"So senior brother has calculated correctly that even if Chu Huaishan helps lock me up, nothing can be done. And your purpose that time was just to use that opportunity to send me false news."

Chu Huanyan paused for a moment and continued: Now thinking about the conversation between the third prince and his senior brother at the gate of the city that day, it should be to make me more convinced. "

"That's right." Mu Feng nodded.

Chu Huanyan met Mu Feng's gaze and said with some confusion: "Is it worth it? Is it just to lure me out of the city after spending so much effort?"

"Of course not at first." Mu Feng glanced at Xiao Rongxuan, "According to His Highness's intention, he will wait until you completely leave the imperial city and arrive at the teacher's hometown, and then find a way to catch you and threaten Xiao Jinzhi."

Chu Huanyan raised her eyebrows, "Then why did you show up so quickly now?"

"Of course it's for the thing in your hand." Xiao Rongxuan spoke, looking down at Chu Huanyan from atop his horse, "What exactly do you have in your hand?"

Listening to Xiao Rongxuan's words, Chu Huanyan's heart skipped a beat and she subconsciously said, "I don't understand what the third prince means."

"Hmph, stop pretending here. I, the prince, have received news that you have been secretly investigating some things during this period. And the evidence you have in your hands..."

Xiao Rongxuan paused, his tone revealing a hint of excitement.

"It is said that it can threaten my father and influence the position of the crown prince. Chu Huanyan, what exactly did you get?"

During this period of time, he had been sending people to pay close attention to Chu Huanyan's movements. What he originally thought was that if Xiao Jinzhi's suppression of the bandits went smoothly and he came back before the Spring Festival was over, he would be able to take advantage of Mu Feng's previous arrangements. The false news of the plot tricked Chu Huanyan into leaving, and then he tried to find a way to catch her, threaten Xiao Jinzhi with her life, and prevent him from returning to the imperial city.

But yesterday, he got new news. Chu Huanyan was investigating an old incident from that year, and that incident involved his father. Chu Huanyan even had enough evidence to threaten his father, thus ensuring that Xiao Jinzhi sat firmly in the position of prince.

He really didn't believe it at first, but after asking someone to carefully inquire about Chu Huanyan's recent activities, he found that something was indeed wrong. In addition, his father summoned Chu Huanyan alone, so he couldn't help but not believe it.

So he immediately ordered Mu Feng to use the servant of the Hou Mansion to lure Chu Huanyan out of the imperial city. Even if the news is false, it just exposes the plan in advance, but if the news is true...

No matter what evidence it is, it must not fall into Xiao Jin's hands.

Chu Huanyan's face paled slightly, but she still calmed down and looked at Xiao Rongxuan with a frown, "Third Prince, I really don't know what you are talking about. What kind of evidence can threaten the emperor is simply a fantasy."

Xiao Rongxuan stared at Chu Huanyan with a sinister look. With a wave of his hand, someone behind him immediately raised a crossbow and aimed it at Chu Huanyan and the others.

"I give you one last chance. Although there are people secretly protecting you, the manpower you bring this time is far from enough compared to my prince's."

Chu Huanyan pursed her lips and looked at the dozens of guards behind Xiao Rongxuan warily. If they really fought, they would have no chance of winning.

"My prince's patience is limited, otherwise..." Xiao Rongxuan took the crossbow arrow from the guard next to him and aimed it at Xian Yue beside Chu Huanyan, "My prince will kill the slave next to you first, and then you can think about it carefully. "

Xianyue's expression changed, and she suddenly froze in place.

Seeing that Xiao Rongxuan was about to take action, Chu Huanyan immediately said: "Wait!"

"Why, have you thought clearly?" Xiao Rongxuan asked proudly.

"The evidence is not on me. You let us go back to the imperial city first, and then..."

"Junior sister, there is no need to lie like this." Mu Feng interrupted Chu Huanyan, "Such important evidence, you should not leave it in the Ning'an Marquis Mansion."

"It's really too dangerous to carry it with you, so..."

Before Chu Huanyan finished speaking, Xiao Rongxuan raised the crossbow arrow in his hand again.

"That's enough!" Chu Huanyan stopped Xiao Rongxuan and looked at him with a frown, "I will give you the evidence, but you must not hurt them. You must let them go first."

"Miss, this slave cannot..."

"Stop talking." Chu Huanyan interrupted Xian Yue, "It's useless for you to stay. Leave quickly and save your own lives first."

"How can I leave you here alone, Miss? My slave..."

"Okay, I have no interest in watching you play the role of master and servant." Xiao Rongxuan interrupted Xian Yue's words and looked at Chu Huanyan coldly, "Don't talk about them, even your life is at stake for me now." In a moment of thought. Do you think you are qualified to negotiate terms with this prince?"

Chu Huanyan met Xiao Rongxuan's gaze, and the next moment she suddenly laughed, "Why not."
