Poor Ji Ningqiu, he has become a traitor and running dog of the Ji family!

Little did she know that she was just the plaything of the tyrant emperor and his evil concubine!

As expected, after Ji Ningqiu left, Liu Huachao acted coquettishly and angrily to Ning Huaixuan: "Your Majesty! Didn't you say that you loved me the most? Why did you promise that the Third Miss Ji would enter the palace!"

Ning Huaixuan comforted her nonchalantly, "I just think she is still useful to us. Why are you holding a grudge against a chess piece?"

"Don't worry, my beloved concubine. She is much easier to control than Ji Mengshu. Wouldn't it be a good thing for you if such a stupid woman entered the palace?"

"That's true."

Liu Huachao snorted softly and was happy again.

She and Ning Huaixuan were in love and discussed strategies to catch the adulterer all night long.

On the morning of the second day, Ning Huaixuan came to the palace of the Empress Dowager to pay her respects:

"Grandmother, when will Mengshu come back to the palace? I know I was wrong last time. Please invite my cousin to the palace again. I want to apologize to her in person."

Xu raised her eyebrows: "Oh? The sun rose from the west today. How could the emperor be so sensible?"

Ning Huaixuan looked embarrassed, but he suppressed his resentment and smiled at Xu: "Grandma, why do you have to tease me? I really know I am wrong. With my current position in the court, Liu is indeed not up to the standard. If my cousin can become my queen, she will definitely help me in the government."

Hearing this, Xu sighed and said, "I'm relieved that you think so."

Xu did not doubt much and immediately sent a letter to the Ji family, asking Ji Mengshu to come to the palace.

However, not long after, news came from outside the palace that Ji Mengshu had not been in the capital recently. He was not feeling well and had gone to a villa in the mountains to recuperate and rest.

Ning Huaixuan knew about this long ago, so he didn't feel too sorry. Instead, he smiled and said to Xu: "Grandma, after all, I don't have anything important to do today. Why don't I go to the outskirts of Beijing to look for my cousin? I hurt my cousin's heart last time, maybe Mengshu is waiting for me to go and apologize to her."

Mrs. Xu didn't expect Ning Huaixuan's attitude to be so sincere, and she became even more excited: "Huaixuan is so thoughtful. It should have been like this earlier! Then you go to the villa on the mountain and bring Mengshu back. Remember to tell Mengshu that she hasn't visited me for a long time and I miss her too."

"Yes, Imperial Grandmother."

After getting the approval, Ning Huaixuan immediately returned to the Yangxin Palace.

He packed his clothes and left the palace without any extra fanfare, only a team of palace guards and a eunuch following him.

This eunuch was not Zhang, the eunuch who usually served Ning Huaixuan, but a young man.

He has big eyes, a fair face and no beard.

Obviously - a woman.

The person Ning Huaixuan brought with him was Liu Huachao. The matter of catching an adulterer was so grand, how could he not bring his beloved woman to witness the execution of Ji Mengshu?

After leaving the palace, Ning Huaixuan went to the Ji Mansion first and found Ji Mengshu's mother, Jiang.

He said that he was asking Jiang to lead the way for him, not knowing the location of the villa, but in fact he hoped that Youji's family could be there to catch the adulterer together.

Only with such irrefutable evidence, the Empress Dowager would not be able to defend Ji Mengshu even if she turned the tables.

Ji Mengshu would never have thought that at this moment a large group of people were coming towards her.

At a villa in the mountains, Ji Mengshu was seeing Ning Rongzhang off outside the door.

Ning Rongzhang had been recuperating in the villa for more than a month since he was assassinated. His injuries had almost healed, and Ning Rongzhang no longer had an excuse to stay.

Not only that, Ning Rongzhang received an urgent report from Western Xinjiang this morning, saying that there was war at the border and he was urgently needed to return to his fiefdom.

Taking these two things into consideration, Ning Rongzhang had to leave today.

Ji Mengshu played the role of a good host and gave Ning Rongzhang a horse and some money. He personally stood outside the door to see him off, but Ning Rongzhang was still reluctant to leave.

The tall and handsome man looked at Ji Mengshu deeply, as if he wanted to hide her in his body.

"Miss Seven, please accept this jade pendant."

Ning Rongzhang took off the dragon-patterned jade from his waist again. This time, Ji Mengshu sighed and did not refuse.

Prince Changyou was inexplicably persistent. Even though she said she didn't dare to take it, he still gave it to her again and again.

Forget it, after all, she had agreed to become a partner of Wanbao Pavilion. It was just a piece of dragon-patterned jade that controlled half of the warehouse, so she would just accept it.

The woman took it gently, but she didn't know that there were stormy waves rolling in Ning Rongzhang's eyes.

She accepted it!

Ji Mengshu accepted it!

Ji Mengshu only knew from the rumors passed down by outsiders in her previous life that the dragon-patterned jade was just a tiger talisman to Ning Rongzhang, and that the holder could withdraw money from the Wanbao Pavilion at will.

But she didn't know that this piece of dragon-patterned jade was also a yin-yang double jade pendant, and the phoenix jade pendant on Yu Ningrongzhang could be combined into one.

When Ji Mengshu took over the dragon jade, it meant that he had taken over himself. From then on, Ning Rongzhang belonged to Ji Mengshu.

Similarly, the phoenix jade symbolizing Ji Mengshu is tightly pressed in Ning Rongzhang's arms.

Doesn’t this mean that Ji Mengshu is also his?

Thinking of this, Ning Rongzhang's heart felt hot.

The seventh lady of Linzhou Ji family...she will only belong to him.

What if she is engaged to that loser Ning Huaixuan?

What if the Empress Dowager ordered her to be the Queen?

If he is the emperor, isn’t Ji Mengshu also the queen?

Ji Mengshu had no idea of ​​the man's dark and persistent thoughts. After accepting the jade pendant, she urged him helplessly: "Sir, it's getting dark. Didn't you say that there was something important going on in your hometown? Go back quickly!"

Ning Rongzhang pursed his lips and murmured inaudibly:

"Meng Shu, wait for me."

When he was about to stop, he mounted his horse and left the villa.

Ning Rongzhang rode his horse at a gallop in the mountains for a long time. After he was sure that no outsiders saw him, he called the shadow guard who had been protecting him.

"You don't have to go back to Xijiang with me. Just stay here and protect Miss Ji Qi."

The shadow guards were shocked when they heard this: "Master! Absolutely not! The military has issued an urgent order that the situation in the western border is dangerous, and we subordinates must protect the prince!"

Without Ji Mengshu, Ning Rongzhang was as cold as a thousand-year-old ice in front of his subordinates.

He waved his sleeves domineeringly and ordered in an irresistible tone: "If I tell you to stay, you must stay!"

"But, Your Majesty..."

The shadow guard was about to say something when suddenly, a series of sporadic noises were heard outside the forest, which immediately alerted Ning Rongzhang and his group.

Someone is coming!

Ning Rongzhang jumped onto the treetop and waited for a while, then saw a group of men in black appear.

"Hurry up! His Majesty will be here soon, and he has ordered us to hide in the villa before he arrives!"

"Commander, why do we have to hide our identities in the Ji family's villa? She is the quasi-emperor--"

"Shut up! Why are you asking so many questions?"

The leading man in black scolded, and a cold light flashed in his eyes after he finished speaking.

"She is not some future queen. After tonight, she won't even be able to claim the identity of Miss Ji Qi."

A group of people hurriedly left along the forest path. After their backs disappeared, Ning Rongzhang was left with a livid face.
