Legitimate Daughter, Arrogant Consort

At this moment, Situ Yaoru and Yu Sheng were together in a garden in the eastern suburbs. Yu Sheng watched from the outside as Situ Yaoyue walked in. Today she had learned to be shrewd. Bring enough water to wash the petals before eating them.

The flower petal tasted bitter, but after it entered Situ Yaoru's mouth, she felt her body heat up. Situ Yaoru stayed there until the sun had set.

Twice along the way, Situ Yaoru's hair almost turned white. Fortunately, she had the bottle that the Godly Doctor had given her, so she was able to alleviate the pain. However, his body was much better.

The feeling of helplessness he felt a few days ago had never appeared again. To Situ Yaoru, this was a joyous event.

However, at this moment, she reacted as well, "Yusheng, peonies in this city can absorb human blood. If I eat peonies, wouldn't I be the same as the mayor?"

"But you're not the one to do that. If you eat these flowers, they will no longer be able to absorb the blood and Qi for the mayor. It was also good for the people in the city. What's more … Aren't you going to help the people in this city? Think of it as redemption. " Yu Sheng consoled.

Hearing this, Situ Yaoru nodded her head.

However, there was a trace of worry in his heart.

Was it really okay for her to do this?

The night was still fine. The capital was brightly lit with lanterns. In the past few days in the capital, there hadn't been any major incidents. If there was one, it would most likely be the matter of Miss Situ returning to her hometown to visit her relatives.

If there were more, the Crown Prince would go to the Xunyang City to look around.

Xunyang City was patrolled once a year. However, during the past two years of patrolling Xunyang City, she had always been under the Sixth Prince's wing. In addition, there were also people from the Sunrise City who were reacting weirdly to Xunyang City. That was the reason why the Emperor had sent Tantai Wuyue this year. However, Tantai Yunyi had also gone with him.

This kind of patrolling could be said to be very rare once every ten years. From this, it could be seen how much the Emperor cared about the Xunyang City Patrol.

At this moment, within the crown prince's residence.

Tantai Wuyue and Tantai Yunyi were both in a dilemma because of this matter.

"Although there are some problems over at Xunyang City, if we are able to find out, it would be detrimental to us." Father has always been yearning for the City Lord's life. " Tantai Yunyi looked at the man who was writing a imperial report. He said.

When Tantai Wuyue heard this, he replied, "Indeed. But the people of Xunyang City suffered so much. Could it be that they will allow so many people to die just because of Imperial Father's dissatisfaction?"

"Crown Prince, in order to achieve great things, it is inevitable that there will be piles of bones under my feet. Sixth Brother, haven't they also pretended not to see it for the past two years? "

"It's their business that they pretend they can't see. I don't want to see the people of the city die just like that."

"Crown Prince, there has to be a reason for everything. Do you know what would happen if you really touched the owner of Xunyang City? Since the City Lord of Xunyang City was young, his father almost didn't see him as his own son. If it were not for the disapproval of the officials, he would have even conferred the title of 'prince with a different surname' on the city lord. At the moment, even royal father pretended not to see such a great sin like him. You want to touch Father at this time? You really don't want to be the crown prince, do you? Do you really want us to die together with you? "

Tantai Yunyi was on the verge of grabbing the crown prince's lapels and shouting. For some reason, he felt that the Crown Prince was even more difficult to serve now than he was in the past. Although he would have been kind in the past, he would not have hesitated when it came to big matters like these. But now, he even had to hesitate about this matter. This was truly infuriating!

Tantai Yunyi's words were something that Tantai Wuyue understood. He pondered for a moment and said, "I understand. Just like before, I'll just go through the motions. "In the future, when I have the ability, I will compensate that Xunyang City." Tantai Wuyue frowned as he said this. However, in the end, he was still able to convince himself.

After all, to him, becoming an Emperor was the most important thing. Only by becoming the emperor of Lan Lin would he have better methods to protect that person.

Seeing that Tantai Wuyue had agreed, Tantai Yunyi felt relieved. On the surface, he had regained his calm demeanor. "Since that's the case, then make your preparations. "I'll just wait until I get to the Xunyang City and take a look around."

"Alright."

Tantai Wuyue said.

When Tantai Yunyi saw that Tantai Wuyue had truly agreed to it, his mood also improved a bit. However, what he did not know was that he had a good saying: A plan is not as fast as change.

Of course, this was something that would come later.

Time was not fast, but if he was slow, it was in the blink of an eye.

Three days was not enough for anything to happen. During the three days that they had waited for Tantai Wuyue to arrive in the city, Situ Yaogran and Yu Sheng had managed to clear up most of the matters in the city. He even found out that it was the birthday of the mayor seven days later.

That day was without a doubt the best opportunity to make a move.

I know. The owner of the peony seed that even the Godly Doctor couldn't break was called Hong Luo. Even a Godly Doctor wouldn't be able to match up to someone who specialized in poison.

Only, a Divine Doctor could learn medicine, and that man could concoct poison. The two sides were at odds with each other. These two were martial brothers. As a result, unless he broke the agreement between the Godly Doctor and him, the two of them were not allowed to take action against any of their plans.

The Peony Project this time belonged to that man. Therefore, he couldn't attack unless he wanted to break it.

In this regard, Situ Yaoru could only blame it on the fact that she couldn't break the Godly Doctor's boredom. Of course, the Godly Doctor still had control over her little life. Naturally, she didn't dare to say these words out loud.

Early that morning, the sun was warm on the skin. This brought many hope to the dark city. It was also at this moment that two men wearing white robes with purplish-gold crowns slowly walked down the street, riding large, red horses. Behind them, there were hundreds of people. This was the prince who was patrolling from the capital.

Situ Yaoru sat in her room and looked down through the window. When she saw Tantai Wuyue, she quietly threw down the jade pendant he gave her. It was in the direction of Tantai Wuyue. However, just as it was about to land on his head, Tantai Wuyue caught it.

With this movement, the soldiers behind him all drew their sabers. He had a vigilant look on his face. Tantai Wuyue glanced at the jade pendant in his hands. A light flashed in his eyes.

"What is it? You've picked up a treasure? " Tantai Yunyi, who had arrived with Tantai Wuyue, looked at him with suspicion. Tantai Wuyue nodded when he heard this.

"Oh? That was interesting. Is there anything in this world that you can call a treasure? Let me see. " Tantai Yunyi said with interest. Tantai Wuyue kept the jade pendant. After taking note of the inn, he then headed in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.

Seeing how Tantai Wuyue was acting, Tantai Yunyi did not say anything. After all, everyone had their own secrets.

"Is that all?" Yu Sheng asked in puzzlement as he stood by Situ Yaoru's side. This way, it would be more convenient to meet Tantai Wuyue directly.

"Enough. If I were to see him directly, I would attract attention. Now everyone knows I'm back home. If they knew I was in Xunyang, who knows what kind of tricks they would have come up with. I don't want to cause unnecessary trouble. That piece of jade is his. He gave it to me before, but now I throw it away. He will definitely know that it's me. " Situ Yaoru's face was calm. He was not worried about Tantai Wu Yue coming.

Yu Sheng looked at Situ Yaoyao with a strange expression on his face, "I wonder where your confidence came from." But since he's coming, I'll move next door. And I don't have to worry about anything happening to you. " Yu Sheng said.

"Alright." Situ Yaoru was too embarrassed to let Yu Sheng make the bed every day. Naturally, he nodded.

At the same time, Tantai Wuyue and Tantai Yunyi entered the City Lord's Mansion.

Within the city leader's mansion, the owner of Xunyang City was dressed in a luxurious black robe with golden engravings in the Sanskrit language. His appearance was pretty and delicate, but her expression was indifferent. Her body also gave off a chilling feeling.

Just like the poisonous black peony.

Noble and unapproachable.

"This subject pays his respects to the both of you." The man's voice was hoarse and tattered.

His crutch was in his left hand, apparently because his foot wasn't ready yet.

"Stand up, royal father has already given the order that no prince is allowed to receive your worship. But City Lord, I feel like I've met you somewhere before. " Tantai Wuyue looked at the man in front of his and felt that he looked kind.

When the man heard this, he respectfully said: "Perhaps it's because of my face that His Highness feels that I'm familiar with it."

"Maybe." Tantai Wuyue did not continue pursuing the matter.
