"Don't worry, Princess. I will." The leader of the Great Zhou said seriously. When he saw the proud Princess Jiaoyang put aside her pride for her own prince, he suddenly understood what the prince had said a long time ago. The prince said that she was worth it.
The leader was eager to convey Princess Jiaoyang's words to Murong Kai immediately, but Murong Kai didn't even take a servant with him when he left, so they didn't know which direction to go when they wanted to find him.
At this time, Ah Man and the others would never have thought that Murong Kai was still in the palace, and in Su Jing's imperial study.
"Are you all ready?" Su Jing sat on the chair and glanced at Murong Kai and asked softly.
"Will you send someone else if they're not ready?" Murong Kai asked back softly, his words bluntly.
"I told you before, I don't feel comfortable if someone else goes for this matter."
"If I go, I will be even more worried if I leave Ah Man in the palace."
Murong Kai seemed to be arguing with Su Jing, but he spoke frankly, and even though Su Jing was choked by his words, he could do nothing about it.
"This palace still belongs to me. No one can do anything to her." Although he was dissatisfied that Murong Kai cared about his daughter more than himself as a father, he still gave Murong Kai a guarantee. Unfortunately, his guarantee was not credible to Murong Kai at all.
"No one did anything to her openly, but what about in secret? If you hadn't left quickly today, your Concubine Xu might have taken action."
Murong Kai spoke softly, but just as he finished his words, Su Jing threw the teacup beside him at him.
Murong Kai dodged it easily and still looked at Su Jing with a faint smile.
"You knew that Concubine Xu might have bad intentions, so how dare you send Xuan'er over? You..."
After knowing the news that it was Murong Kai who asked Concubine Xu to take Xuan'er away, his first reaction was the same as A'man's. He only cared about A'man and didn't care about Xuan'er. However, the person who came to deliver the message to him in advance was from Murong Kai.
After thinking it through, Su Jing felt relieved. Murong Kai might not care about Xuan'er, but he already loved Xuan'er so much that he didn't want to let Xuan'er be in any danger.
"I am giving Your Majesty a chance to get close to Concubine Xu. You have been cold to her for so long, it is time for her to warm up."
These days, Murong Kai often came to the imperial study to chat with Su Jing about court affairs. Although Su Jing looked down on Murong Kai, he had to admit that he was very smart, so he would tell Murong Kai about his plans. He really lacked an excuse to reconcile with Concubine Xu.
"Then you're going to let my son risk his life to act as a matchmaker?"
"What are we planning for? He can't get something for nothing. Besides, he didn't lose anything. He even made some candied haws."
"Xu Fei's candied haws..."
"Even if she has bad intentions, she won't do it now." Murong Kai spoke calmly. This was also the reason why she was relieved to let Xuan'er go. Even if Concubine Xu was very brave, she would not dare to attack Xuan'er openly.
"When you sent the letter, you clearly said that if it was too late, Xuan'er's life would be in danger."
This is a mystery that Su Jing has not been able to solve until now. Concubine Xu has nothing to rely on now, so how dare she do something to Xuan'er? But the person who came to deliver the message at that time was very sure.
"I'm just afraid of the worst. If something happens to Xuan'er, not only will you not forgive me, Ah Man won't let me off easily either."
"You put Xuan'er in danger today, Ah Man will not let you off easily."
No one knows a daughter better than her father. Looking at Ah Man's expression today, he knew that Murong Kai would definitely be questioned and accused by her.
So when it comes to this, Su Jing feels a little gloating. Didn't Murong Kai always brag about A'man's understanding and kindness towards him before? Look how he is still bragging now.
"Maybe you have disappointed the emperor. I guess Ah Man is regretting treating me like that now." Murong Kai looked at Su Jing, who was looking happy, and kindly reminded him.
