Overcoming all difficulties, the princess is reborn to become the empress

Wang Zhong sat down at the table and saw the prince walking towards the princess.

The prince smiled and shook his head, took the rabbit lantern from the princess' hand, and hung it back on the bed. Then he held the princess' hand and led her over.

Seeing their hands still clasped after they sat down, Wang Zhong quickly turned his head to wipe away his tears, then stood up and bowed, saying, "I congratulate the prince on getting what he wished for."

Su Yunxuan glanced at Su Changfeng in confusion. He tightened her hand and said to Uncle Zhong, "Thank you, Uncle Zhong. Please take a seat."

After Zhong Bo sat down, he dipped his left eye with the corner of his sleeve, and then his right eye.

"Uncle Zhong, do you know why King Xu is in a hurry to find Brother Changfeng and return to Yunsheng?" Su Yunxuan asked.

Zhong Bo was stunned, then looked at Su Changfeng. After a moment of confusion, he shook his head.

"You don't know either?" Su Yunxuan asked again subconsciously.

Before Zhong Bo could respond, Su Changfeng asked, "How did you know about Wangyou Pavilion?"

Zhong Bo still did not answer. He stood up and bowed, saying, "Now that your wish has been fulfilled, please follow me back to Yun Sheng as soon as possible. I will naturally know the answer you want to know."

"King Xu has been following me for all these years?"

Su Changfeng let go of Su Yunxuan's hand, stood up and stared at Zhong Bo.

"Prince, please don't make things difficult for me." Zhong Bo insisted, bending even lower.

Su Changfeng took a step forward, helped him sit down again, poured him a cup of tea, and then said, "Uncle Zhong, we must return to Yunsheng, but I can't be too passive. I don't want Yunxuan to be in unknown risks."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhong glanced at Su Yunxuan. Seeing Su Changfeng's eyes staring at Su Yunxuan, he knew that he had to speak up today no matter what.

As long as it involves the princess, no one can shake the prince's determination.

"I don't know the details. I can only tell you what I know. You have to make your own judgment on the specific circumstances," he said.

Seeing Su Changfeng turning to him, he first answered his previous question.

"Prince Xu has not been following you for many years. His mind is not on you. He knows about Wangyou Pavilion, and it should be your grandfather who told him."

The prince just frowned and did not interrupt him, so he wanted to tell him everything that happened the day before they set out.

"It seems that Master Bai doesn't have much time left," he said.

Su Changfeng's hands on his knees suddenly clenched, and Su Yunxuan covered them with concern.

Su Changfeng pinched it in his palm, smiled and shook his head at her.

Wang Zhong looked at him and continued, "Before I left, Master Bai went to Prince Xu's mansion. He and Prince Xu stayed in the study for the whole day, had lunch and dinner in the mansion, and left after dark."

"I have been in Prince Xu's Mansion for most of my life, but this is the first time I have seen Master Bai enter Prince Xu's Mansion. I have always believed that the two of them are just like the rumors outside, that they are incompatible and will never have any contact with each other until they die."

"But, that day, I saw Prince Xu personally helping Master Bai get on the carriage. Prince Xu stood outside the mansion and watched Master Bai's carriage disappear for a long time before turning around. I followed him and saw him quietly wiping away tears."

"Prince Xu fought in many battles, a man of steel. I even suspected that I was dazzled by the darkness. After I followed him for a few steps, he raised his hand and asked me to retreat."

"That night, the light in Prince Xu's study was on all night. At dawn, he sent Ali over."

"At noon, Ali gathered his men and horses and waited outside the palace. Prince Xu called me into the study and asked me how many people there were in my family. He then ordered me to bring the prince back as soon as possible."

It wasn’t Ruoying who brought it here?

Su Changfeng's heart trembled slightly. Seeing that Uncle Zhong had stopped talking, he asked, "Uncle Zhong entered Prince Xu's mansion with my grandmother, right?"

Zhong Bo nodded and said, "This old servant is the lover of the old lady's personal maid."

As if recalling a moment, he raised his hand with a smile on his face and gestured, "I still remember that when the old lady led us back to Prince Xu's Mansion in Yunsheng Capital, your father was only this tall."

Seeing Su Yunxuan's suspicious expression, Su Changfeng explained to her softly, "My grandmother is not from the capital. My ancestor... is the daughter of a merchant whom Prince Xu married at the border. When my father was five years old and needed to go to school, my grandmother took him back to Prince Xu's mansion to settle down."

After explaining, he turned to Uncle Zhong and said, "Uncle Zhong, you have been in the palace for so many years, you should know a lot of things. What do you mean by saying that Prince Xu's mind is not on me?"

Wang Zhong was stunned, his eyes turned slightly, and he suddenly stood up and leaned forward again and said, "Your Highness, I am old and my memory is not good. I don't remember saying this just now. Please don't be offended."

After saying this, he lowered his head and raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

"Uncle Zhong." Su Changfeng pulled him to sit down again.

"I know your difficulties. How about this, just like we used to guess riddles when we were children, you can give me a direction and I will figure it out myself, okay?"

Zhong Bo was silent for a moment, then seemed to have made up his mind and nodded slightly.

"Ever since your father seized the military power of the Great General of the Nation, he has become even more lawless after returning to the capital."

"Uncle Shaoyu?" Su Yunxuan asked in surprise.

In my childhood memory, my uncle Shao Yu was uneducated and spent his days in debauchery and dissolute behavior.

He is just like this. Su Yunxuan really doesn't understand why Uncle Zhong suddenly mentioned this person.

Zhong Bo looked at Su Changfeng and ignored her, so she turned to Su Changfeng.

He frowned slightly, looking focused, as if he was thinking seriously.

Suddenly, his pupils dilated, he stood up abruptly, turned to Zhong Bo and asked: "Are Prince Xu and the Queen Mother...?"

Before he finished speaking, he glanced at her, then turned to Zhong Bo who had also stood up, and took a step closer to him, as if staring into his eyes to examine him.

After being stared at for a long time, Uncle Zhong nodded helplessly.

Su Yunxuan pulled Su Changfeng in confusion and asked, "Brother Changfeng, is it something?"

Su Changfeng did not turn around to look at her, and said to Uncle Zhong in a deep voice: "Uncle Zhong, go back and keep an eye on those people first, and bring them here early tomorrow morning. I will go back to Yunsheng with you."

"Okay, we will come to pick up the prince and the princess tomorrow morning." said Uncle Zhong.

There seemed to be tears in his eyes, shining brightly, he nodded vigorously, leaned over and said goodbye: "Prince and Princess, please rest early."

Seeing Uncle Zhong leave, Su Changfeng closed the door. Su Yunxuan asked anxiously, "Brother Changfeng, are you going back to Yunsheng alone?"

Seeing Su Changfeng approaching her, looking at him with burning eyes, stroking her hair without saying anything, she asked again: "Is it dangerous to go back to Yunsheng?"

Su Changfeng suddenly embraced her in his arms and whispered softly in her ear: "Let's go back to Yunsheng together. I finally found you, how can I bear to let you go."

"No." Yunxuan said anxiously and pushed him away in panic.

Su Changfeng let go of his hands, pinched her shoulders and looked at her.

Her face flushed slightly before she met his eyes, then hurriedly avoided him and explained, "I said I can't do it tomorrow. I want to settle my parents and Zixi first. I haven't said goodbye to them formally yet."

After saying that, her face turned even redder.

Her heart seemed to blossom suddenly, and Su Changfeng embraced her in his arms again.

A formal farewell?

Is she willing to stay with him in Yunsheng forever?
