The lady is reborn? The crazy villain kisses her forcefully and won't let go!

When I chased them, the remaining assassins had already hidden in the mountains, but I had already sent a large number of troops to search the mountains."

The emperor puffed up his cheeks and asked, "Are there any survivors among the guards who followed the prince to the bamboo forest?"

Mu Sinian was about to reply, but Cao Mang beside him took over the conversation and said, "Your Majesty, the guards that His Royal Highness brought with him were not many, and not a single one was left alive."

Mu Sinian tilted his head and glanced at Cao Mang.

As soon as he arrived at the bamboo forest, Cao Mang and his men from the Western Factory arrived and quickly took over and counted the wounded and the dead.

The situation was critical at the time and he didn't think much about it.

Not a single one of the dozen or so guards was left alive?

So why did the prince go to the bamboo forest tonight?

The emperor brushed the things off the table and said angrily: "Investigate this matter thoroughly. I want to know who dares to go against the royal family!"

In the deep night, there are no stars or moon. The evening breeze blows gently, bringing a damp feeling to the trees in the forest.

"Miss Mu!"

"Miss Mu..."

Mu Luan heard someone calling her in a daze and tried to squint her eyes.

A man half-crouching in front of her appeared in her sight.

The low, mellow voice beside my ear became clearer, "Miss Mu, wake up."

Mu Luan blinked weakly, her eyes still a little unclear.

"Master Gu?"

Gu Chengfeng nodded and said, "It's me. Are you okay?"

Mu Luan's eyelashes trembled, and she subconsciously looked around, as if looking for something.

However, the familiar figure was not seen.

She was leaning against a tree trunk and was not in the carriage.

Seeing this, Gu Chengfeng looked behind him and said, "Miss Mu, are you looking for something?"

Mu Luan's eyes dodged for a moment, but she quickly regained her composure.

She shook her head slightly and asked in surprise: "Why am I here?"

Gu Chengfeng frowned, "When I found you, you were right here."

He was silent for a moment and said, "An assassin appeared in the enclosure tonight. The emperor has ordered a strict investigation of the matter. The security is tight at this time. It would be safer for Miss Mu to return to the tent."

After Gu Chengfeng finished speaking, he saw that Mu Luan was conscious and not seriously injured, so he turned around and was about to leave.

Mu Luan was surprised for a moment. Seeing his hurried look, she knew that things might not be that simple.

She slowly stood up, holding onto the tree trunk. "Did anything else happen?"

Gu Chengfeng paused and looked back at her.

Thinking that this matter would eventually be announced to the world, there was nothing to hide, he said in a deep voice: "The prince was assassinated, Miss Mu, please take care of yourself."

Mu Luan's breath choked, his head buzzed, and his thoughts came to a sudden stop at this moment.

Jun Zhao took action against the prince so quickly?

Gu Chengfeng left these words and did not stay any longer. He led a group of guards away into the distance.

Mu Luan looked over and was slightly stunned.

What she saw was not just the imperial guard led by Gu Chengfeng.

The scattered and winding flames coiled around the paddock like fire snakes, instantly lighting up half the sky.

The sound of weapons and armor was incessant, and the sound was so loud that it made people feel frightened.

Mu Luan's brows were tightly knitted together, and her heart seemed to be blocked by something, making her breathing difficult and feeling uneasy.

In this life, many people's experiences seem to have become different.

In his previous life, the prince indulged in wine and women and led a dissolute life. In the end, he did not live past the age of thirty.

However, he did not die in the autumn hunting trip, but was beheaded by Jun Zhao in the East Palace.

At that time, Jun Zhao was extremely powerful in the court and everyone knew that he was not interested in women, but he kept a beautiful woman in his mansion.

So many people are very curious about her identity.

This includes the Crown Prince Jun Qi Zheng.

Since entering the Regent's Palace, Mu Luan has been growing up in fear and terror.

In order to survive, she carefully observed Jun Zhao's temperament and character.

Although she couldn't find Jun Zhao's weak spot after a long period of contact, she knew how to give in and how to play along with him.

As long as what she did was in line with his wishes and did not go against his will, he would not make things difficult for herself.

Otherwise, no matter how hard your bones are, he can break them into pieces.

For a long time afterwards, Mu Luan learned to coax his moody temper.

There was only one thing on which Mu Luan was like a stubborn donkey and refused to compromise.

The jade pendant given to her by her second brother was the only thing that remained with her.

Once, Jun Zhao went crazy for some unknown reason and snatched the jade pendant from her waist when she wasn't paying attention.

How could Mu Luan let him take away her only dream?

She could agree with him on everything, but family was her bottom line, sacred and inviolable.

When Jun Zhao placed the butterfly jade pendant in his palm and turned it over to play with it, Mu Luan's heart was in her throat.

She was afraid that he would get angry and destroy her jade pendant.

She coaxed him softly and asked Jun Zhao to return the jade pendant to her.

Seeing how much she cared, Jun Zhao not only didn't give it back to her, but also sneered at her, "Give it back to you? Everything about you, inside and out, even your breath, belongs to me!"

As he spoke, he felt more and more relieved when he saw her nervous expression. He wrapped the butterfly jade pendant with his slender fingertips little by little and said coldly, "This jade pendant is very annoying to me."

Jun Zhao looked thin, but Mu Luan knew how powerful his palms were. He could pinch her waist with one hand, toss her in his arms, and make her scream out while shaking.

He closed his fingertips, and Mu Luan felt as if he could see the jade pendant shattered into pieces in the next instant.

Without hesitation, she threw herself on him and tried to pry his fingers apart without hesitation.

But Jun Zhao was like teasing a furry kitten. Mu Luan tried to pull it for a long time but there was no sign of it loosening. It even got tighter and tighter.

Mu Luan got anxious and bit it.

Jun Zhao seemed to be irritated. He pinned her down on the table and grabbed her slender neck. He said in a cold voice, "Mu Luan, it seems that you still don't know who you are."

Mu Luan refused to give up. She was strangled by him until her breathing was stagnant, but she still refused to give up and said, "Give me back the jade pendant, please..."

The corners of her eyes were wet and red, and her chest was swollen and painful.

I thought I was really going to die in his hands this time.

At the critical moment, Jun Zhao let go of his hand.

Having barely managed to survive, Mu Luan couldn't stop choking and coughing.

But Jun Zhao seemed like he hadn't had enough fun.

With one hand on the table and the other holding the lanyard, he slowly swung it in front of her eyes, and said jokingly in his cold voice, "You want the jade pendant?"

"Then it depends on whether you have the life to take it."

Jun Zhao threw down these words, got up from her without any reluctance, and left the bedroom at a leisurely pace.

Mu Luan didn't understand what Jun Zhao meant.

But she knew in her heart that Jun Zhao must have thought of another way to tease her.

Sure enough, the next day, a servant came to inform her that someone in the palace wanted to see her and asked her to go into the palace.
