"Pa." A slap with a pointed fingertip slapped the eldest princess on the face without mercy. The concubine Shu, who had always loved the eldest princess like her eyes, felt her chest rise and fall with anger.

The eldest princess has been pampered by her mother since she was a child. Otherwise, she would not have such a personality. She was still immersed in the shock of her mother doing something. She was stunned, but she felt a sting on her face. She touched her face and found that her mother-in-law

The armor she had always been proud of scratched her face, and she burst into tears.

Concubine Shu was also stunned. She looked at the eldest princess' face with blood oozing out, feeling a little distressed, but she also knew that if she didn't educate her, she might cause big trouble.

She gritted her teeth and cursed, "Are you so bold now that you don't even listen to the words of your mother-in-law and brother? My brother and mother-in-law have already planned to avenge you! But if you take action now, you have delayed the opportunity.

It’s not even successful yet, so there’s no point! What are you doing, waiting for King Kang to bring trouble before the Holy Emperor, dragging us into the water? My concubine Shu, your brother’s throne, and your princess status will all be killed by you!

"

Hearing Concubine Shu say this, the eldest princess knew that she had messed up everything. She didn't dare to cry anymore, she just covered her face and said nothing.

The third prince was helpless. Why did he end up with such brothers and sisters, and both of them asked him to clean up the mess? The third prince sighed, seeing that his mother and concubine were already a little distressed, and said, "That's all."

"That's it for this time. I've sent people to deal with the aftermath. Those women are not in any danger. You just need to know that the matter concerning the third lady of the Kang family has nothing to do with you. You should also not get involved in any subsequent matters concerning Kang Yanning.

, we still have plans for the future.”

The eldest princess is the biological sister of the third prince. Listening to his tone, she suddenly understood that he actually wanted to...

Seeing that her face was slightly swollen and her eyes were filled with tears, Concubine Shu felt a little distressed. She explained, "That's right, when we get it done, Kang Yanning will become your sister-in-law. You can rub her as much as you want, mother."

The concubine will vent her anger for you. But now...your little tricks can't defeat her, so don't provoke her again."

After hearing what Concubine Shu said, the eldest princess already knew that she and Kang Yanning must not be in the same rank, otherwise Concubine Shu would not value Kang Yanning so much. She was a little depressed, but she also understood that she could not delay the important matter of the third prince. She nodded and said no more

Word.

The third prince was extremely satisfied. It would be a good thing if his sister could learn a lesson and calm down her temper this time. He said to Concubine Shu, "Then Yanyu Tower will be given to her, and we are ready to take action."

Even if Concubine Shu seals the harem, she is still a harem woman. She puts her son's thoughts first, so she naturally doesn't have many objections. But she doesn't know why, but she always has a bad premonition. This Kang Yanning... She warned, "That Kang Yanning is full of tricks."

, you’d better pay more attention.”

The third prince nodded, with a strong interest in his eyes. "You say so, but I'm actually interested."

The eldest princess thought to herself who else was helping her second brother? She secretly took a look at their expressions, and seeing that they were not prepared to say anything, she did not dare to ask any more questions, so she just lowered her head and remained silent.

───────────────────────────────────────────────

─────────────

Kang Yanning and her two new good friends were making love and were preparing to leave the palace and return home. When they walked to the official road, they felt a familiar ink-colored clothes line across the corner not far from the official road. Kang Yanning was slightly startled.

I immediately guessed who this person was.

She looked around, knocked her head as if she had just remembered, and said with a chuckle, "Look, I forgot. I came here with my two sisters from our Kang family, and I will be alone when I go back. I

I will definitely be scolded by my mother, I have to go back to see my sister, you go first."

Ling Yupu nodded understandingly, "That's true. Just go pick up your sister." The two of them didn't think much, just told them to pay attention to their safety, and then left.

Kang Yanning took two steps back and ducked behind the wall at the corner. Sure enough, she saw a man standing like a cypress, wearing a dark robe, looking at him quietly.

She smiled slightly and saluted, "Your Highness the Crown Prince."

The prince was not surprised that she could detect him sensitively. He nodded slightly and said with a smile, "I heard that you were in the limelight today, fighting fiercely with both men and women. The whole capital has praised you to the best in the sky and the only one in the world."

Kang Yanning shook her head. For some reason, when she saw the prince, her heart suddenly calmed down in the palace. She actually wanted to tell her the grievances she had encountered today. Maybe she had shared the hardships together. The prince was a good person. She

Say this to yourself.

She said with a lonely tone, "Yan Ning doesn't like to be in such limelight. However, there are always people who can't let me go."

When the prince heard this, he also sighed in his heart. Yes, she was raised by her parents and had never suffered any pain since she was a child. What she came to Kyoto to meet was everyone's plot and conspiracy.

The prince stared at her for a moment, then suddenly took a step forward, stretched out his hand and stroked her head, "You have done a good job."

Kang Yanning had spent too much energy today. She was gently touched by the prince on her forehead. For a moment, the grievances in her heart from two lifetimes surged up uncontrollably in her heart. Then Kang Yanning suppressed this feeling fiercely.

, but she could no longer stop her thoughts. Kang Yanning gently rubbed against the prince's hand, as if she wanted to seek some warmth.

The prince felt the warmth under his hand and was a little dazed. But somehow, he did not avoid it. He said softly, "I'm here to remind you that you are so popular today, I'm afraid someone has already targeted you."

"

Kang Yanning let herself go for a moment, then she immediately woke up. She stepped back and left the prince's hand, and nodded. She knew that she had completely attracted the attention of the person behind the eldest princess, and this was what she wanted.

"Prince, please rest assured, Yan Ning knows about it."

Kang Yanning thought that the prince was here to remind her, and she was quite grateful in her heart, but it was not the right place to say more. "Then Yan Ning will leave first."

Hearing this, the prince said no more and took out his left hand from behind his back, only to see that he was holding a food box in his hand.

Kang Yanning was stunned and looked at him in astonishment. The prince clenched his fist with his left hand and coughed slightly in a low voice, "At the banquet that day, I saw that you liked this pastry better, so I prepared some for you today."

Kang Yanning was completely stunned. She stared blankly at the food box in the prince's hand without moving it for a long time. The prince was not embarrassed and just held it like this.

Suddenly, for some reason, Kang Yanning's heart beat so fast that it felt as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest. She stepped forward to grab the food box, turned around and left, forgetting even the etiquette.

After running for a few steps, the biting cold wind in the winter soothed her restless heart. She had been a human for two lives, so she naturally knew what was going on with her heartbeat just now. She was secretly angry at herself. Her only goal in this life was

Revenge. Kang Yanning can no longer trust others and does not want to get involved with others. Thinking of this, her heart completely turned cold.

Her steps slowed down and she walked out of the city gate. Her expression was indifferent and she threw the food box on the side of the road without looking at it and no longer paying attention to the little loss in her heart.

At the same time, the Third Prince's Mansion.

Chai Tao said hello to the housekeeper of the third prince's residence, then opened the door and entered the third prince's study. He saw the third prince standing by the window, watching the jackdaws flying by.

Chai Tao didn't wait for the third prince to greet him, and walked to the back room on his own, "Why, you called me here so suddenly today. I heard that the eldest princess..."

When he looked up, he saw a screen placed behind the third prince's inner room. A figure dressed as a man was faintly visible behind the screen. This was not the first time that Chai Tao saw the person behind the screen in the third prince's study, but it was the past time.

The one that was relatively far away from him was actually placed not far away today.

The third prince was the prince chosen by Chai Tao's father to follow him, so naturally he sent Chai Tao to work beside him so that he could have the merit of following the dragon in the future.

As the son of the Minister of Rites, Chai Tao was good at observing people's emotions since he was a child, especially when he was working around the prince. So when he saw that the screen was one foot closer, he shut up in time.

The third prince had his back to the screen and faced Chai Tao. He watched Chai Tao stop his words in time and showed him a satisfied smile.

In the past, Chai Tao always thought that behind the screen was the third prince's hobbies and interests. Now that he saw the third prince's approval, he suddenly felt blessed. The person behind him should have the same status as the third prince. Otherwise, how could the third prince be so jealous.

Chai Tao lowered his head to drink tea, covering up his inner thoughts and saying no more.

The third prince closed the window, and the cold wind outside immediately dissipated, and the room became warm and humid.

"I called you here today to ask you if the little girl we placed next to Kang Yanning has gained anything."

Chai Tao was not surprised. There was an uproar in Kyoto. He also heard outside the palace that Kang Yanning embarrassed the eldest princess today. Even Kang Yanning's sister wanted to push Kang Yanning into the underground river. He glanced at it.

Third Prince, who knows if there is any handwriting from him in this.

This is indeed an injustice to the third prince. He is not as short-sighted as his sister. What he wants is Prince Kang's military power, and Kang Yanning can take it.

Chai Tao replied seriously, "Kang Yanning has been accompanying the second princess to the study for the past few days. Recently, the Holy Father gave the second princess a holiday. Kang Yanning has been at home, and there is nothing unusual."

The third prince didn't expect the little hidden nail placed next to Kang Yanning to have any effect. He just nodded, "I'm afraid our Yanyu Building has to be left."

"Do you really want to give it?" Chai Tao was a little surprised. The Yanyu Building was a place that the Third Prince had built for a long time to collect information. If it was really given away, it would be difficult to find a second replacement place in a short time.

The third prince said meaningfully, "Kang Yanning, I have a new plan." He smiled easily, "Let's find a transitional place for now. When Kang Yanning becomes the third prince's concubine, Yanyulou will naturally come back."

Chai Tao was stunned and then understood that Kang Yanning was now at the forefront of noble ladies in terms of status, strategy and appearance. It was not surprising that the third prince's first choice was her. Besides... the third prince had great ambitions and wanted more.

, naturally he must choose a woman who can bring him benefits in all aspects.

"Okay, then I will arrange someone for her."

The person behind the screen knocked on the table. Chai Tao raised his eyebrows and looked behind the screen again.

The third prince thought of something again and said, "That nail, give her more resources. If she wants to use it, bring her over to see her when she has time. There may be a very useful chess piece for us behind her."

Chai Tao nodded. He didn't want Huaili to appear in front of the third prince so early. "Don't worry, I will make arrangements."

The third prince said no more. Chai Tao left in time, but saw the third prince looking behind the screen. Seeing that there was no unnecessary reaction from behind the screen, he raised his hand slightly and let him go.

After Chai Tao walked away, the third prince walked to the back of the screen and asked, "How is it? Are those nails available?" The third prince didn't understand why he insisted on listening to the situation of the hidden nails there.

The man walked out from behind the screen, "There is no problem for now. That nail is very important. Kang Yanning is almost as smart as a demon. Remember not to let her find out." He saw the disdain on the third prince's face and frowned. "Don't take it lightly. She is a witch."

A tough opponent.”

Although the third prince still despised the woman in his heart, he was too concerned to say anything more and said he knew.

The more Chai Tao thought about it when he went out, the weirder he became, who was behind the screen who could make the third prince listen to his opinions? He carefully recalled the figure of that person, who was thinner than an ordinary man. He thought carefully, he should know someone beside the third prince.

There is no such person.

He remembered that the person had paid attention to Huaili's mission again and again, and he had a headache. The matter was a bit difficult to handle. Chai Taoke agreed to save Huaili and her brother. He frowned and had to take care of it.
