The Hickey of the Demon Lord: The Substitute Princess

Chapter 224

Let her be on the verge of collapse.

He recalled the past, his eyes sparkled, as if it was his entire spiritual pillar. "A month ago, you came to Ma's house for a banquet. At that time, I was on the flowerbed in the side hall and looked at your figure through the window. Before I could see your face clearly, I felt as if I knew you in my previous life. Later, When you turned your head, I took a look at your appearance and felt that you were the woman I was waiting for. So, your past is nothing to me, as long as you promise to be my wife. "

Su Min's hands and feet were suddenly cold.

She thought about why during that banquet, she always felt that there was a gaze fixed on her behind her, but when she turned around to look back, there was no one.

Such a strange thing is actually true.

The truth is colder than winter.

"You don't know me well enough, so how can you tell me that I'm the woman you like based on a glance of intuition?" She tried to hold him steady, and spoke with an approachable look, not easily irritating her.

"Some people won't be pleasing to the eye for a lifetime, and some people will know it just by looking at it." Without thinking too much, he smiled slightly, showing his white teeth, and his thin and elongated face looked a little pale.

It would be great if this kind of words came from Nangong Zheng's mouth. Su Min thought so, and it was hard to be moved. Although a strange young man with strange behavior expressed his affection for her, she didn't have any happiness and joy. Good impression.

She looked around, but she didn't know where the agency was, nor did she know how likely she was to get out.

"Don't look, this is the cellar of my room, no one else came."

He turned to her, said these words, shattering her last hope.

"I'll go up first, dad is looking for me."

He turned around, left this sentence, and silently disappeared from Su Min's eyes.

In the entire dark room, she was left alone again.

She was sure that the sound of his footsteps had gradually faded away, she slowly moved forward, and then...slowly bent down, all of this became extremely difficult for her.

The movements were clumsy, but she finally squatted down. She let out a long sigh of relief, and moved towards the direction where he disappeared, pursing her lips tightly, fully on guard.

With a flash in her eyes, she tilted her body and stretched her fingers with great effort. After a while, she finally got it.One of the broken pieces of porcelain on the ground.

She couldn't predict whether Master Ma would be able to notice her abnormality, or if he found out, he would cover up and pamper his son.

No one is reliable, and she can't wait for Nangong Zheng to rescue her, time is too slow, she can't wait.

She sat in front of the wall, nervously watching any disturbance around her, and slowly moved the tile with her bound hands, she dared not relax for a moment.

She wanted herself, rescued herself.

The rough hemp rope is rubbed every minute, but it is as hard as a rock.

The faint blood color was stained with porcelain, but the woman's face didn't feel any pain.

night, deeper.

Royal Palace.

"She didn't say where she was going?" The man sitting in the palace amidst the light, was dressed in a noble purple dress, embroidered with the most noble dragon pattern of the royal family, his black hair was like ink, and his eyes were like lacquer.

It's just that his expression is not happy at all, or, not just angry, but also.Worry.

"I went out of the palace as usual, so my subordinate didn't ask too much. The subordinate has already sent someone to the Su family's branch shop, and will inform the master as soon as there is any news." Ling Feng knelt on one knee, disturbing the master. His duties as a subordinate, but he never took it to heart, after all, Su Min once did not return all night.

It should be because of the delay in discussing things, Nangong Zheng nodded, secretly reminding himself that she was just walking around the Su's branch, and the time was fine before, and nothing happened, so he didn't need to worry about it.

"I look worried?"

After he was silent, he opened his mouth coldly and asked Ling Feng for his opinion.

"Yes."

Ling Feng wasn't a talkative personality either, but seeking truth from facts, he knew Su Min's position in his master's mind, and he also understood the reason for this incident.

"I've always felt that women are troublesome, and it seems that it is true."

He was worried about her, terrified for her, afraid that there would still be Nangong Yuan's remnants in this world that he hadn't eradicated, who would investigate Su Min's true identity, use her as a bait to design himself, hurt her body, and threaten her life.

Nan Gongzheng smiled faintly, sighed, stood up, walked out of the palace, and walked towards his bedroom.

Along the way, Ling Feng followed closely behind.

"In the past few days, the little prince has gotten very close to Princess Huiping."

"Who?" Nangong Zheng didn't seem to be listening carefully, he never stopped and spit out a word.

"It's the 15-year-old princess who was sent here." Ling Feng said more specifically, but his face was still expressionless, as if it was just an announcement, and there was no extra intention.

Nan Gongzheng became silent. He had only met this princess once, and there was no conversation between the two of them. In his eyes, she looked like a girl who hadn't grown up yet. They are no different from those young princesses in Nangong Palace.

Generally speaking, he didn't regard her as a woman, let alone have any liking or desire for her between men and women.

It seems that it is just a stranger, and there is no emotion to become familiar.

"The age is also similar. It's normal for two people to play together." Nangong Zheng responded calmly without thinking too much. At this moment, his mind was full of Su Min, and he had no time to think about other people or other things.

"Yes, master." Ling Feng's eyes flickered, he had seen the appearance of two people getting along, as if he had seen some clues, but maybe he was mistaken.

It is true that Nan Gongtong is a mean boy, while Princess Huiping is a gentle woman who is almost submissive. The two of them met like fire and water, with completely different personalities.

Sometimes she listened quietly to Nangongtong's sharp and cold words, and sometimes she argued a few words. Now, she can also talk back and fight for her own initiative.

Maybe he didn't understand the changes, so he simply didn't talk about it.

Thinking about it like this, Ling Feng followed Nangong Zheng's figure and watched him walk into the palace room before he closed the door for Nangong Zheng and guarded the door.

early morning.

Nan Gongzheng was still half asleep and half awake, he vaguely saw that his eyes became clear, he opened his black eyes, and looked at his bedroom, there was no trace of her presence.

"Ling Feng."

He yelled, Ling Feng opened the door and walked in.

"Is there no news?" Gently rubbing his aching temple, he asked blankly, without any warmth in his eyes.

Ling Feng lowered his head, and his voice revealed a bit of solemnity. "The shopkeeper Jin of Su's branch said that there was a banquet between several shops last night, and she was promised to attend, but she didn't find her later."

"She didn't go back to the branch shop?" Nan Gongzheng suddenly stood up, half-sitting, his expression changed drastically.

"The entire branch also dispatched a lot of long-term workers to search nearby places, but Madam Su's relationship with the palace is unknown to outsiders, so they didn't think of contacting us at the first time."

"Didn't find it all night?" Nangong Zhengjun frowned. He didn't sleep well that night, almost waiting until dawn.

Thinking that maybe in the morning, she would appear by his side, sitting on the edge of his *bed, looking at him with a smile, maybe, holding a bowl of hard-to-swallow medicine soup, waiting for him to drink the medicine obediently.

However, this scene did not appear.

Even her whole person suddenly disappeared without a trace.

An ominous premonition was stronger than ever. Nangong Zheng's voice, like ice that would not melt for a thousand years, pierced straight towards Ling Feng in front of him.

"When did you get the news?"

He fell to the ground, chilled and silent, making people afraid to open their eyes to see the fierceness and sternness on his body.

This kind of Nangong Zheng was furious, the calm before the storm.Of course Ling Feng had seen it before, so he knew what was waiting for him.

"Around three o'clock." Ling Feng slowly raised his face, looking squarely into Nangong Zheng's eyes, and said so.

Nangong Zheng's face was livid, and he was holding the tea bowl on the coffee table secretly, his appearance was more like gnashing of teeth in hatred. "Why didn't you wake me up?"

He always felt that something was wrong, even though he was lightly asleep, he was still waiting for news, if Ling Feng woke him up at midnight, he wouldn't waste these few hours.

He almost, missed a big deal.

"The subordinates feel that if they look for it again, there will be results. The master is working hard on state affairs, and it is rare to rest." Ling Feng couldn't continue speaking halfway through. After all, Nan Gongzheng's eyes were burning hot, and he knew that he didn't make it in time. Notification, a big mistake has been made.

"Who told you to be self-righteous and make your own decisions? Who!" Nangong Zheng felt a pain in his chest, as if he was about to lose something. This feeling was hard to control, and he could only endure it silently.

He didn't want such a result, so he was furious for a moment, picked up the tea bowl on the coffee table, and threw it towards the front.

The exquisite and gorgeous blue and white porcelain was smashed into pieces immediately, and the brittle pieces splashed out in all directions, scraping across Ling Feng's face, and cut a very thin bloodstain.

Like a well-trained soldier, Ling Feng didn't dodge or defend himself, but just waited for Nangong Zheng's next order.

Nan Gongzheng stood up, put on his robe, passed Ling Feng's body indifferently, and said something indifferently. "Deploy two hundred troops and find them in the whole capital for me."

"Of course." Ling Feng nodded, not even caring about the bloodstain on his face, what he thought of was to find Su Min in the fastest time and make a contribution.

"Also, invite shopkeeper Jin in, I'll see him in person."

After Nangong Zheng said this sentence, his expression was indifferent but cold, and he clenched his fists secretly, he didn't look at Ling Feng again.

Ling Feng lowered his head and walked out, but just as he stepped out of the door, he saw Nan Gongtong's blue figure, he was slightly startled, and stopped Nan Gongtong.
