Chapter 516 - 516 Overthinking



“You guys should be good at interrogation too, right?” she asked the man in black.

The man in black nodded. “We’re also at interrogation too.”

She first pointed at the several Ge people who were tied up on the ground with fierce expressions.

!!

“Then I’ll leave these people to you. Find out why they wanted to ambush the third prince and capture me as soon as possible.”

She then pointed to the traitor who was being held down by the third prince’s men not far away. “Also, interrogate him and find out who he is siding with.”

“No problem!” The man in black seemed to understand.

Hence, he brought along a few secret guards who were good at interrogation and dragged the man to a forest that could not be seen in the distance.

Their future madam was here, and they were afraid that their tactics would scare her.

After they went to interrogate him, Shi Qingluo looked at the third prince and said, “Let’s wait for a while?”

If she didn’t get a reply, she wouldn’t be able to return to Heyang County in peace.

The third prince smiled and nodded politely. “Alright!”

Following Shi Qingluo’s instructions, Qingqing carried out a tea set from the carriage and the few of them sat in the forest, drinking tea and chatting.

Mother Xiao and Xiao Baili were also very bold now.

They weren’t even scared by the Ge Kingdom’s appearance.

The third prince drank a few cups of tea and smiled at Shi Qingluo, “Your martial arts skills are very proficient, princess.”

Shi Qingluo smiled. “It’s so-so.”

The third prince went straight to the point. “Why are you here? Didn’t you say that you were helping my imperial uncle in that small town?”

“His Royal Highness told us to return to Heyang County first. He will come back after a while,” Shi Qingluo replied.

The third prince had also guessed his Imperial uncle’s plan. “It seems that I’ve disturbed your journey. I’m really sorry!”

“It’s fine. I can’t just ignore it.” Shi Qingluo said nonchalantly.

The third prince looked at Shi Qingluo. Seeing that she was calm and confident, he sighed.

Previously, because of the incident with his former princess consort, he had a complicated impression of Shi Qingluo.

Although he didn’t help Fu Wenzheng, he didn’t interfere either.

After all, he didn’t know the truth back then.

Even if he didn’t agree with Fu Wenzheng’s actions, he couldn’t bear to do anything to her.

He did not expect Shi Qingluo to save him today.

Shi Qingluo naturally felt the complicated look in the third prince’s eyes.

She lowered her head and sipped her tea, pretending not to see him.

She didn’t have a good impression of the third prince, but she didn’t dislike him either. After all, he was just a stranger.

The third prince didn’t interfere with Fu Wenzheng’s matter, so they didn’t have any enmity.

Just now, she had also noticed that there was something wrong with the third prince’s trusted aide.

He had actually exchanged looks and made hand gestures with someone from the Ge Kingdom.

She was on her guard and kept her arrow aimed at him.

As expected, she realized that the person had attacked the third prince and she immediately made a move to save him.

No matter what kind of grudge she had with Fu Wenzheng, the third prince couldn’t die here.

Of course, if the third prince really wanted to repay her for saving his life, she would not stop him.

At this moment, the man in black quickly returned.

His expression did not look good. “Princess, I’m afraid we can’t go to Heyang County anymore.”

“Why?” Shi Qingluo asked.

“The Ge people have set up an ambush near Heyang County, ” The man in black replied. “They want to capture you alive.

“Not long ago, the Ge royal family issued an order. Whoever can capture you alive will be directly conferred the title of Marquis.”

Shi Qingluo could not help but raise her eyebrows. “It seems like I’m quite valuable in the Ge Kingdom.”

No wonder those Ge people were so excited when they saw her.

They didn’t even kill the third prince and came for her.

The man in black laughed. “That’s right. Princess, you’re a golden doll now. Your net worth is very high.”

“Did you manage to interrogate them on why they wanted to kill the third prince?” Shi Qingluo asked with a smile.

“The third prince’s trusted aide is a traitor from the previous dynasty. He’s a spy from the other side,” the man in black replied.

Through him, the Ge people knew that the third prince and their royal highness, Prince Yi, were going to set up a military defense against the Ge Kingdom.

“On the surface, the third prince is going to the small town to look at the canned food workshop, but in fact, he is going to meet up with our Royal Highness to do this.”

He glanced at the third prince, thought for a moment, and said honestly, “They want to kill the third prince not only because they’re afraid that he’ll join forces with our Royal Highness and cause trouble, but also because he has an important border defense map.”

The Ge people’s plan was to drive the third prince out of the town and then lure Prince Yi to rescue him.

“When Prince Yi appears, the traitor by the third prince’s side will kill the third prince and disrupt the morale of your Royal Highness’s army.

“Then, they will take the opportunity to kill your Royal Highness or capture him alive.

“Finally, they’ll capture the person who knows how to make canned food and bring that person back for the Ge Kingdom.”

“Those people were very tight-lipped, but they had been specially trained, so they had digged out all the truth.

The third imperial prince’s expression was somewhat unsightly. “I didn’t expect him to be a remnant of the previous dynasty.”

That person had been by his side even before he was placed in an important position by his father.

He had been in hiding for a long time and had also gained his trust step by step.

He had thought that he might be one of Prince Jin’s men, but he did not expect him to be from the previous dynasty.

This meant that the previous dynasty had planted many spies in Daliang.

He had to quickly write a letter to his imperial father about this matter.

“You mean they’ve already found out that Princess Fubao is returning to Heyang County.” He said to the man in black. “They’ve set up an ambush, and it’s just a coincidence that we met her today? ”

The man in black nodded. “There are spies of the Ge Kingdom and the previous dynasty in that town. They received the news of the princess’s departure as soon as possible.

“It was indeed a coincidence that we met her.

“Their original mission was to kill or capture you. Those who wanted to capture the princess was an elite group sent by someone else.”

The third prince furrowed his brows and said to Shi Qingluo, “It seems that you can only return with me.”

Since he knew that there were many ambushes ahead, he could not let Shi Qingluo and the others take the risk.

Shi Qingluo nodded her head helplessly. “That’s the only way.”

So they got on the carriage and turned back to the town.

Shi Qingluo also wrote a note, briefly explaining the situation here.

She whistled a few times, and a messenger pigeon flew into her half-opened window.

She tied the note to the carrier pigeon and said a few words to it before letting it go.

The messenger pigeon quickly flew toward Heyang County.

This time, the pigeon did not delay. It flew at full speed and returned to the town in the evening.

Liang Yulin had received the news immediately and rushed over with his men.

Seeing that Xiao Hanzheng’s mother and the others were fine, he was truly relieved.

“It’s good that all of you are fine.”

His eyes were cold. “I’ll remember those people from the previous dynasty and the Ge Kingdom.”

They dared to scheme against his daughter-in-law. “Just you wait.”

If they had not met his third brother, his wife, daughter-in-law, and eldest daughter would have fallen into the Ge people’s trap.

At the thought that something might have happened to them made him felt a little hostile, and it was even more difficult for him to explain this to his eldest son as someone present at the scene.

The third prince saw the look in his imperial uncle’s eyes and knew that he had been angered.

He was a little touched and felt that his imperial uncle was angry that others attacked him.

If Prince Yi knew what he was thinking, he would only say, “Go away and do what you need. Who did it because of you?”
