After the indigenous heroine was reborn, she went crazy and reorganized the plot line

Chapter 146 Prison

At night, the team found a cave to regroup.

Rong Su found a place to sit alone next to the bonfire that the guards had built.

Hold your hands close to the fire so the cold can quickly dissipate from your frozen hands.

I was staring at the flickering flame in a daze when suddenly two roasted foods were stretched out from both sides.

One is grilled fish and the other is grilled chicken.

At the same time, two pleasant male voices came from both ears.

"A Su, I just caught and grilled the fish. Please enjoy it."

"Rong Su, I've roasted a chicken for you."

As soon as the words fell, Shen Peiqing and Gu Yun looked at each other at the same time. Invisibly, some hostile lightning seemed to flash in their sight.

Both men seemed to suddenly have a strong desire to win.

"A Su, I know you like grilled fish with some spicy flavor, so I specially brought some spicy seasoning this time and sprinkled it on the fish."

Gu Yun looked at her with a gentle smile, placed the grilled fish in front of her, and looked expectant.

At this time, Shen Peiqing was not to be outdone. His previously cold and hard tone suddenly softened like a spring breeze melting snow.

He raised the roast chicken, lowered his voice, looked at her, and said, "I think you're tired of eating fish these days. How about trying roast chicken?"

In her opinion, this attitude of showing goodwill to Rong Su was an act of Shen Peiqing's complete submission.

And she also saw that Shen Peiqing seemed to be looking at her with a pitiful and aggrieved look, and she was not sure if she was seeing things.

She even looked at him carefully for a long time, confirming that he really had a look of grievance, and her cold brow seemed to calm down.

Noticing that Rong Su had been looking at Shen Peiqing, Gu Yun couldn't help but have a trace of loneliness in his eyes and pursed his lips.

Prince Jin'an, who was sitting on the other side, saw this scene and couldn't help but become curious.

"Miss Rong is indeed popular, to be pursued by two such outstanding gentlemen. However, why does Miss Rong seem a little troubled? Does she have no idea at all?"

This question was obviously directed at the adjutant Zhuang Hua who was sitting next to him.

Zhuang Hua glanced over there, smiled, and began to tease Prince Jin'an: "It seems that the prince has taken a fancy to those two young masters, right?"

After being exposed, King Jin'an did not get angry but laughed instead. He laughed loudly, looked at Shen Peiqing, and then looked away.

"However, Your Highness should not get too close to Mr. Shen. After all, he has a lot of troubles behind him." As the adjutant and good friend of Prince Jin'an, Zhuang Hua kindly reminded him.

Prince Jin'an was silent for a moment, then smiled faintly: "Being in the royal family, everyone is troubled, how can I be immune to it?"

Zhuang Hua understood the suffering of King Jin'an. He had achieved his current status through painstaking planning, otherwise he would have ended up in a precarious situation.

Over there, Rong Su was being attacked from both sides by two men holding food. She was in a dilemma. She wanted to eat the fish, but she couldn't let go of the roast chicken.

At this moment, Yulan came over with a faint smile, holding something wrapped in an oil paper bag in her hand.

"If you don't mind, Doctor Rong, I have some lotus cakes that I bought in town earlier."

The sweet smell instantly overflowed from the oil paper bag.

Rong Su couldn't help swallowing, her eyes jumping back and forth between the three kinds of food.

Gu Yuer, who had just gone to pick fruit with Shitou, came back. When she looked up, she saw Rong Su surrounded by three people, and they all had food in their hands.

A thought flashed through her mind.

What were these people trying to do? Were they planning to use food to win Sister Rong's favor, so that she would like them more?

It’s okay for my brother and Sister Yulan, but Shen Peiqing is definitely not okay!

Thinking of this, Gu Yuer angrily took several fruits from Shi Tou's hand, puffed up her cheeks, and rushed forward.

Shi Tou saw Gu Yuer suddenly get angry and was worried that he had angered her. He started to panic, but then he saw her walking towards Rong Su, and then he saw Rong Su surrounded by three people.

That scene gave people the feeling of being the center of attention. Shi Tou couldn't help but sigh, "Master, it seems that your love rivals are not only men."

After walking for about five more days, they finally arrived at Dongdu.

The prosperity and size of Dongdu is three times that of Xuancheng.

As soon as you enter the city, people crowd on both sides of the street like countless fireflies.

The shops on both sides of the street are neatly arranged. Even though the things they sell are different, the layout seems very planned.

Seeing everything around you is actually not new, but when you change to a new environment, you always have the illusion that everything has changed.

Rong Su felt a sense of emotion in his heart. At this moment, he saw many people stopping to greet King Jin'an respectfully after seeing him.

When King Jin'an saw this, he did not ignore it. Instead, he dismounted, walked straight past the people and nodded to them.

Such rulers who can understand the people will always be loved and respected by the people.

After walking for a while, they arrived at a mansion that was neither big nor small.

Someone was already waiting in front of the mansion.

As soon as the old man at the door saw their team, he smiled and his eyes were filled with joy, and he came forward happily to greet them.

"Your Majesty!"

When King Jin'an saw the old man, he quickly stepped forward, held the old man with both hands and was about to kneel down.

"Uncle Tian, ​​there's no need to be so polite."

Tian Bo's eyes immediately filled with tears, and he said with tears and laughter: "I haven't seen you for a long time. This is a gift I want to give to you, Your Majesty!"

King Jin'an smiled helplessly, but in the end he did not let Tian Bo kneel down.

Afterwards, King Jin'an introduced them to Tian Bo one by one.

After Tian Bo arranged accommodation for them, Prince Jin'an went straight to the palace to meet the emperor.

Whether they will be summoned by the Emperor of Dongdu will depend on whether they hear from the people in the palace.

The next day, Rong Su received a letter from Aku.

Aku wrote in a letter saying: Master, the royal family of Dongdu has purchased the first-grade Jiuhong from the Poison Sect.

After seeing this information, Rong Su couldn't help but frowned and immediately sent a message to Aku, asking him to find out as soon as possible who purchased the first-grade Jiuhong.

This information was very useful, and she had a special intuition telling her that she must make good use of it.

Aku told her this information in a letter because he must have known that she had come to Dongdu and might be able to use it.

As I was thinking, there was a knock on the door.

She threw the letter in her hand into the fire and burned it.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw the somewhat panicked Gu Yu'er and said to her, "Sister Rong, should we leave Dongdu quickly? I heard that Prince Jin'an was detained by His Majesty because of the defense map, and is now being interrogated in the Dali Temple prison!"

Upon hearing the news, Rong Su felt surprised, but at the same time felt it was natural.

"We can't leave now." Rong Su shook her head, completely erasing Gu Yuer's idea of ​​leaving.

"Why? The defense map actually had nothing to do with us in the beginning!" Gu Yuer was anxious and worried, with a sad face.

Rong Su probably understood the reason, so she roughly told Gu Yuer her thoughts.

"The defense map was indeed missing from the Jin'an Prince's mansion. The Jin'an Prince is certainly responsible, but we can't completely exonerate ourselves either."

"We are from Zhongdu, not Dongdu citizens. After we arrived, we were involved in many things, including the matter between Ying'er and Princess Lianxin."

Gu Yuer didn't understand at first, but later she suddenly understood, clapped her hands, and continued what she was saying.

"Does the Emperor of Dongdu now believe that we have some connection with Ying'er, the mastermind behind stealing the defense map?"

Seeing that she seemed to understand what she meant, Rong Su nodded lightly: "Almost."

"Then what should we do?" Gu Yuer understood, but seemed even more worried, with a bitter and panicked face.

This matter now involves the national affairs of two continents. If they want to get out of it, they must at least try their best to get rid of their relationship with Ying'er.

Although they themselves have nothing to do with Ying'er, the most important thing is that the Emperor of Dongdu is willing to believe what they say.

Rong Su was helpless for the moment and could only comfort Gu Yuer and tell her not to worry too much. Then he advised Gu Yuer to go back first, while he sat down and thought quietly.

[Touch the side quest: Rescue King Jin'an, success +3 levels]

Looking at the sudden side quest, Rong Su's eyelids jumped.

At night, Rong Su still chose to send a message to Aku, hoping that he would speed up the investigation to find out who was the royal family of Dongdu who bought the first-grade Jiuhong from the Poison Gate.

Just after she delivered the letter, she suddenly saw Shi Tou's figure. He did not go out from the main gate of the mansion, but went towards the backyard.

Rong Su couldn't help but become suspicious. After thinking about it, she decided to go and take a look.

After chasing for a while, a gust of night wind blew over. She blinked and found that the stone had disappeared.

I looked around, but it was too dark and I couldn't see the road at all.

Shi Tou is Shen Peiqing's man. He is so mysterious, it must be that Shen Peiqing has given him some task.

Just as I was lost in thought, someone suddenly patted my shoulder.

Her heart skipped a beat, and Rong Su trembled all over. She turned her head and saw that it was Shen Peiqing. She immediately complained and said coldly:

"Do you know that scaring people can kill them?"

Seeing that Rong Su's little face had indeed turned pale because of his fright, Shen Peiqing was a little panicked and racked his brains to make amends.

"Then poison me with poison. I can accept the punishment." Shen Peiqing suddenly reached out and grabbed her hand, pressing her hand against his chest.

His sudden action confused her. What did it mean?

Her hand rested on his chest, where she could hear the rhythmic beating of his heartbeat and could feel the heat of his body.

She shrank back as if she had touched a hot stove, feeling the heat, and stared at him.

"Why are you grabbing my hand?"

Shen Peiqing was stunned for a moment, with a look of confusion on his face. Seeing that Rong Su's behavior was completely different from what he expected, he turned sideways, took out a book from his arms and started flipping through it.

He was even mumbling something under his breath.

"Isn't it that... as long as the girl shows signs of anger, you should hold her hand, place it on your chest, and let her understand your feelings..."

As if he had read something horrifying, he quickly stuffed the book back into his pocket, and his ears turned red.

Seeing him like this, Rong Su had no idea what he wanted to express. He looked so weird, and she was afraid that his head might have been hit by something.

"Rong Su, listen to me..." Shen Peiqing noticed that Rong Su was looking at him with a strange look. He felt uncomfortable all over and even his face was hot.

But Rong Su didn't want to listen to his nonsense, so she broke the strange atmosphere and asked, "Are you plotting something by letting Shitou climb over the wall and leave the house overnight?"

I thought she would blame me for my abruptness, but I didn't expect that she actually cared about Shi Tou climbing over the wall.

In an instant, he felt angry, annoyed, and slightly sour in his heart, as if a ripe fruit peel was fermenting in his heart.

Feeling very upset, Shen Peiqing clenched his fists, then loosened them after a while.

"Nothing."

After waiting for so long, he just gave her four words. Rong Su suddenly got angry. This guy was weird tonight. No, it should be said that he has been weird recently!

She was filled with anger and hatred towards him. She yelled at him, "If you don't want to tell me, I don't believe I can't find out!"

Then he turned and left angrily.

Shen Peiqing heard a deafening sound coming towards him. He was stunned for a moment by her roar. When he blinked, he saw that she had walked away.

I became depressed again and started blaming the stone in my heart.

That book is of no use at all!

Also, if he had known earlier, he would not have let Shitou investigate the affairs of Prince Jin'an. He should have investigated it himself!

At noon the next day.

Rong Su finally received a reply from Aku.

Last night she was so angry with Shen Peiqing that she wrote a letter and asked Fatty to deliver it to him.

Unexpectedly, Aku only spent one night and one morning to investigate the matter.

In the letter, Aku explained in detail that Shen Peiqing's people were investigating the matter of Prince Jin'an, and that it would take him some time to find out who purchased the first-grade Jiuhong.

Finally, he praised Asoyi by name. This information was obtained by Asoyi using the new network of relationships he had established in Dongdu.

This information made her very happy, whether it was that Aku was able to train a talent for her so quickly, or that Asoi was able to grow so quickly.

Looking at the letter slowly burning in the stove, Rong Su began to feel full of motivation. Next, she might be able to use Prince Jin'an to increase the power of Dongdu.

The prerequisite is to rescue Prince Jin'an from the Dali Temple first.

Thinking that Shen Peiqing had also set his sights on Prince Jin'an, Rong Su was still brooding over how he had angered her these days.

However, for the sake of the greater good, she decided to put aside her past grudges and seek cooperation with Shen Peiqing, and settle the previous accounts slowly later.

After making the decision, she carried the medicine box and walked towards Shen Peiqing's room.

At this moment, Shen Peiqing listened to Shi Tou's report on King Jin'an's situation with a cold face.

The stone, not knowing why its master was angry, was filled with worry and asked anxiously:

"Master, did I do something wrong?"

As a loyal subordinate, Shitou can always sensitively perceive his boss's emotions about certain things.

"Heh." A cold sound was heard, and a book fell to the ground.

Hearing the sound, Shi Tou's body shook violently.

"Find a way to get rid of all these worthless books." Shen Peiqing said in a cold voice.

When Shitou heard this, he looked up in surprise, but when he met a sharp and cold gaze, he immediately lowered his head and answered yes.

At this moment, Rong Su's call suddenly came.

"Is Shen Peiqing here?"

Shi Tou never expected that his master, who had a cold face and a sharp gaze just now, would soften his tone in an instant.

He stared at his master blankly, then spoke with a slightly excited voice, "Yes! Yes."

Then, when the master saw him, his face turned cold again: "Why don't you leave quickly?"

Shitou felt it was magical, but since he had been approved, he quickly jumped out of the window and left.
