Mind Reading: The villain wins after hearing the princess's inner voice

Xiao Chengyan was shocked and wary of how easily Xiao Lichen overthrew Prince Junshan and Prince Lingchang of the Left.

In his opinion, the greatest merit of his father was that he recruited Xiao Lichen, a useless man who could not walk, to be the leader of the Xiaoyu Guards.

Since Xiao Yuwei was reactivated by Emperor Jianchang, it has played a huge role in the court, helping him monitor officials, uncover secrets, collect information, and intimidate court officials.

This made these princes tremble with fear. With a strong arm, whatever they wanted to do would fall under the noses of Xiao Yuwei.

This slowed down his pace in developing his own strength.

"Master, I have secretly inquired about it. When King Junshan and the Left Prime Minister were arrested, it seemed that they were captured on the spot by the Xiaoyu Guards after they found a treasure from the previous dynasty."

"Treasure from the previous dynasty?"

Xiao Chengyan's heart began to beat wildly.

Isn't this the treasure he was looking for? King Junshan and his men actually found it first.

Xiao Chengyan felt heartbroken when he thought that he had lost a huge sum of money that could have been used to accomplish his great cause because he was a step late in taking action.

After losing these treasures, his heart seemed to collapse, and he regretted so much that he wanted to kill someone.

"What about the whereabouts of the treasure? Now that King Junshan has fallen, we should quickly gather his troops hiding in the mountains outside Yanzhou."

After hearing his master's words, the guard Yin Gen was hesitant to speak.

"what happened?"

Xiao Chengyan asked with a gloomy face. His mood at the moment was filled with gloom, and it could be said that he was in a very bad mood.

Yin Gen had followed his master for many years, so of course he could see that his master was about to get furious.

But some things have to be said.

"According to the information I have gathered, the treasures found by King Junshan fell into the hands of Prince Yong's son, Xiao Lichen, and the troops of King Junshan located in the suburbs of Yanzhou were secretly recruited by Your Majesty some time ago."

After hearing these two things, Xiao Chengyan clenched his right hand into a fist and punched the small table where the tea was placed. The small table shattered into pieces under his great strength.

"What a great Xiao Lichen! He is my nemesis, right? I can't sit still and wait for death any longer. Yin Gen, speed up. After returning to the capital, contact our people and challenge Xiao Lichen in the court. We must find a way to force him to hand over the huge treasure of the previous dynasty!"

The emperor always promoted that useless guy who couldn't even walk, but always suppressed his own son.

Xiao Lichen's existence has seriously blocked his way forward, and this person cannot be kept!

In this case, don't blame him for being ruthless.

"Yes, I will send our message right away and ask them to act accordingly in the court!"

On the official road back to Beijing.

Jiang Jingzhen and Sun Liyun sat on an ox cart given to them by Xiao Chengyan.

"I thought we could ride in the same carriage with His Royal Highness Prince Xin back to the capital, but I didn't expect that he would leave early because of something important."

Jiang Jingzhen looked at the ox cart they were riding in with disdain and complained angrily.

"Maybe His Royal Highness Prince Xin is angry because we didn't help him."

Sun Liyun patted Jiang Jingzhen's hand to comfort her.

"It's all my sister's fault for being so stingy. It's just a travelogue, but she couldn't bear to give it up, causing us to embarrass ourselves in front of His Royal Highness Prince Xin."

Sun Liyun hid the expression in her eyes and whispered, "I think His Royal Highness Prince Xin still has some feelings for you. When you return to Beijing, it would be good to spend more time with him."

Jiang Jingzhen nodded, indicating that she felt the same way.

At this moment, a carriage that looked very exquisite in their eyes quickly passed them and ran towards the city gate.

They recognized that this was the carriage from the General's Mansion.

Jiang Jingzhen and Sun Liyun both looked unhappy.

"Your sister is too petty. She has been trying to curry favor with Princess Anle. She is afraid that Princess Anle will become friends with you, so she has tried her best to distance herself from you. If you ask me, if she wants to do good for you, she is not willing to do anything other than say a few good words in front of Princess Anle!"

"She must have been sitting in the same carriage as before. When she saw us sitting in the ox cart, she didn't even stop to give us a ride. This shows how cold and indifferent she is."

After hearing what she said, Jiang Jingzhen also felt that her sister Jiang Siyan was narrow-minded and petty, and was afraid that she would live a better life than her.

"Hmph, when I get home, I'll tell my parents that Jiang Siyan was a traitor and colluded with outsiders to bully me, causing me to lose the trust of His Royal Highness Prince Xin!"

When her parents find out, they will definitely stand on her side and help her teach her self-righteous sister a lesson.

A smug look flashed across Sun Liyun's eyes.

Humph, so what if Jiang Siyan can attract the attention of His Royal Highness Prince Xin? As long as she handles things properly, she will definitely win the favor of His Royal Highness Prince Xin.

Just as Tao Yuwei's carriage arrived outside the south gate of Beijing and was waiting in line to enter the city, she heard the coachman happily reporting the good news to her.

"Miss, I see Guard Zhang Hu standing in front of us."

Hear the words.

Tao Yuwei happily lifted the car curtain, stuck her head out and looked forward.

I saw Zhang Hu and four other people riding on horses, surrounding a simple carriage.

"It seems that Zhang Hu and his men have found my elder brother. Stop the car. This princess and elder brother will ride in the same carriage."

Tao Yuwei didn't let the two maids follow her. She jumped onto the carriage swiftly and ran to the carriage that Zhang Hu and the others were protecting.

"Zhang Hu, have you found my elder brother?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Zhang Hu pulled the reins in his hand. After seeing Tao Yuwei, a smile broke out on his dark face, revealing a row of big white teeth.

"Princess, why are you here? Are you here to greet the eldest master?"

Tao Yuwei smiled and nodded, "Of course!"

"Thank you for your hard work. When we get back home, I'll ask my father to reward you!"

Without waiting for Zhang Hu to answer, she lifted the curtain and climbed into the carriage of her elder brother Tao Zipeng.

Seeing her figure disappear behind the curtain of the carriage, Zhang Hu opened his mouth and swallowed what he wanted to say.

Forget it, their young lady has already entered the carriage, and she will know what the eldest master’s situation is at a glance.

Tao Yuwei, who had entered the carriage, was staring at the two people in the carriage, and neither of them started talking.

Looking at the beautiful woman in a light green dress sitting next to her elder brother Tao Zipeng, she was angry.

That's right, I was angry.

[What bad luck has befallen the General's Mansion? The woman who was supposed to follow my eldest cousin back to Beijing is now entangled with my eldest brother and wants to follow him to Beijing.]

Tao Yuwei's thoughts came clearly into Tao Zipeng's mind.

He widened his eyes in shock.

His sister, who was lawless and notoriously arrogant in the capital, had clearly not spoken a word just now, but he heard her voice.

Could it be that he was hallucinating just now?
