The Hickey of the Demon Lord: The Substitute Princess

Chapter 40

With a flash in front of his eyes, Su Min's long-hanging heart instantly fell to the ground.For the past two days, because of the banquet in the palace, she couldn't sleep because she thought that she couldn't hide everything.

"Is what you said true?"

Qiao's mother bowed to the side and sighed heavily, "The emperor sent the prince to the Southern Capital to encircle and suppress the rebels, and we will be leaving tomorrow."

"Really?" Although the tone revealed doubts, Su Min's heart was full of joy and luck, which had flowed clearly into his heart.

"It will take at least ten days and a half months for the prince to go, Wangfei." Qiao's mother paused for a while, with too much meaning, so she didn't say it.

"Me?" Su Min smiled lightly, calmly.

"We have only been married for more than three months, and the husband and wife are about to separate. This is unreasonable in our capital. But since this is the order of the emperor, the prince cannot refuse."

Su Min's brows gradually furrowed when he heard this, the relationship between the royal brothers suddenly became clear before his eyes.She saw a clue, the relationship between the two was at odds, although the emperor didn't want to hand over power to Nan Gongzheng, but he couldn't completely get rid of him in matters of state affairs. It is inseparable from such a character as Nan Gongzheng.

Presumably Nan Gongzheng must be a thorn in the eyes of the emperor, a thorn in the flesh.

Seeing the woman in front of her lost in thought, Mother Qiao's eyes sank and she continued.

"Perhaps the old slave talked too much. The prince led the army to suppress the bandits and was away from home. Shouldn't the princess get together and talk to the prince?"

Withdrawing from her thoughts, Su Min stood up with clear eyes and a calm tone. "I have read <; Female Virtue>;, Mother Qiao, I understand what you mean."

"That's good." Qiao's mother smiled, but Su Min was very puzzled. She didn't understand why she was smiling, but it seemed that she had already breathed a sigh of relief.

Compared with the serious and solemn expression in the past, Qiao's mother today has a bit of solicitation. "The prince will come back from court in a while, and the princess should go to meet the prince. If we want to see the prince in the future, we must let God bless him to win the battle and return to the court as soon as possible."

The smile in Su Min's eyes became deeper and deeper, "He will be very satisfied tonight." With Su Yu playing chess with him and enjoying the favor of a beauty all by himself, maybe it will make him unforgettable.

"The concubine finally understands what this old slave is trying to do." Hearing Su Min's answer, Mother Qiao's expression was much relieved.

Su Min silently lowered her eyebrows, her clear eyes shone slightly, and an inexplicable smile escaped her eyes silently.

study.

Su Min sat in the study for half an hour, but after waiting for half an hour, he hadn't returned from the palace yet.

Looking around, she seldom set foot in his main courtyard. Perhaps, as long as he often appears, she has already drawn a dividing line in her heart, and then she will not move forward.

In the study room, the bookshelves are full of military books, but he can't find a collection of poems, books, and anthologies. It seems that he has never had an arty leisure time.

The words he was familiar with were just a tool for him to gain success and pride in the dead of the enemy, in those bloody winds.

He is also completely different from the young masters of rich families that I have seen in the past.They recite poems and make love, and they can use the most gorgeous words to organize a resplendent life.

No one else is like him, who wears a handsome and noble skin, but is cruel and gloomy, evil and crazy.

They were originally people from two worlds.

She has been obsessed with this kind of gentle and beautiful words since she was a child, but in the words of the military book, he calculates the power of life and death, and kills endlessly.

They are two people who are determined not to have any intersection.

Su Min looked at the pile of messy paperwork on the right side of the desk, and sorted it out calmly. Half of it was about the situation of the defenders in the border city. She didn't take it to heart, but she stopped on a certain page. It was full of words, It made her suddenly feel familiar and inexplicable.

With a flash in her eyes, she hastily spread out all the paperwork and turned over page by page.

The doubts in her heart clearly surfaced, and she was almost about to let out a low breath, feeling heavy in her heart.

These are definitely not what he should care about!
There was a sudden sound of someone's footsteps at the door, Su Min moved in a panic, hurriedly put the documents back to their original positions, and left the desk.

"What are you doing here?" Nangong Zheng, dressed in fine clothes, opened the door and saw Su Min's figure, his handsome eyebrows were slightly frowned, and his tone was still cold and alienated.

"You moved the table."

Sitting back on the mahogany chair in front of the desk, he glanced at the desk and immediately noticed something, his cold eyes scratched Su Min's expression.

Su Min was afraid that he would notice her strangeness, so she would not let her emotions dominate her, she said calmly as always. "It's because I saw too many things, so I tidied them up."

"Remember, you'd better not mess with my things, otherwise, you will be kicked out immediately." Nangong Zheng gave her a cold and arrogant look, without any slack at all, as if he would not let her go. The authority that people question.

He must be hiding this secret, for fear that others would find out, so he would not allow anyone to break into the study.

But, why is there so much information about the Su family around him?

He is the least interested in the Su family.Even when the Su family was mentioned, his thick eyebrows would unconsciously frowned, feeling deeply unkind.

Her body was tightly pressed against the bookshelf, unable to move.There seemed to be a voice of complete collapse in her heart. He was right in front of her, but she seemed to have exhausted all her strength and couldn't see through him.

Could it be that he was the culprit behind the Su family's accident?
Before she got married, there was an accident in the cloth shop, and the materials were ordered by the government, and the robbers that the government has not been able to track down so far are even some highly skilled people. Stealing is so easy for reckless thieves.

So.Su Min looked at the man in front of him and suddenly forgot to breathe.

Nan Gongzheng has nothing to do with the official family and the royal family, and his subordinates control the military power, and all martial arts masters are under his banner. When he gives an order, many people will die for him.Even if you want to do those outrageous things, you will never hesitate.Military orders are like a mountain, and more are subordinates who are tight-lipped!
After peeling back and forth, the clues revealed by these things have almost been tied to him!
All these doubts were piled up on him, and when she thought that the man who occupied her body, the man who bore the title of husband, might be the murderer who maliciously destroyed the Su family, the murderer who almost killed her father, she was so angry Gritting his teeth, his face was pale, his heart was trembling, and he couldn't say a word!
Such an expression fell on Nangong Zheng's eyes. He raised his eyebrows coldly, took off his cloak, and looked at her suspiciously.

"Speak quickly if you have anything to say." Impatience was written on his face, and his body was full of the cold aura that resisted people thousands of miles away, which was more chilling than the harsh winter in the capital.

"My lord is going to leave the capital tomorrow morning to go to the southern capital." She clenched her fists secretly, and Su Min's heart was surging. She was almost sure that this man with the name of her husband was already her enemy!
"Who told you that?" The thick eyebrows that slanted into his temples frowned slightly, he seemed very displeased, and didn't want her to know everything about him.

She avoided answering his questions, her eyes no longer had any trace of warmth, and her voice was cold and unruffled. "My lord is going, how sure are you that you can return to court triumphantly?"

"It's just a group of thugs, what's the status of it?" He snorted coldly with disdain. The gang in Nandu has only more than 1 people. Put it in your eyes.

Su Min's eyes flashed and he became silent.

Troublesome.

Any ordinary people who are not in his eyes, or these rebels, can all be included in this word.

He belongs to the royal family, so high above, so what if the Su family is well-off, in his opinion, they are just a businessman, and the level of a businessman is the same as those in the market.

Regardless of the strange feeling in his heart, they were far apart in the past. When she resisted, the words that flashed in his mind may also be troublemakers.

"Then I hope the prince will take down these troublemakers in one fell swoop."

Su Min bowed slightly, turned around hastily, and walked towards the door.

"You still have nothing to say."

Slightly narrowing his black eyes, hiding his secretive thoughts, he stood up and stopped her in her footsteps.

"No matter what I want to say, my lord can fight a beautiful battle." She raised her eyes, and a soft smile appeared on her delicate face, and she said a sentence without haste. "So I will not say much, so as not to hinder the prince."

"What's in the way?" Xie Mei's face was expressionless, even more so without anger.

"It prevents the prince from having a good rest." He lowered his head slightly, his small face was lowered against the light, and he couldn't see clearly what kind of expression Su Min had at this moment.

There is something in her words.

Passing over his body, she opened the double doors, and the night wind blowing on her face made her more awake.

Not far or near, she vaguely saw Su Yu's figure, approaching, without meeting each other, she walked towards the path of the other courtyard, and passed Su Yu.

At that moment, the night completely covered those clear eyes, deep and endless.

In the garden.

"Get that quack doctor out." Before fully entering the room, Su Min heard Tong's angry voice rising, Su Min's eyes flashed, and he looked into the room.

The bright morning light has already shone into the room, and the loneliness in the room has been swept away, leaving only a faint scent of medicine, permeating it.

Next, it was Mama Qiao's unique low and hoarse voice, which was as steady as Mount Tai.

"This is ordered by the prince. He specially invited this famous Gongsun doctor from Yunnan with a lot of money, so that it can be useful during the time when the prince is not in the mansion."

Su Min silently settled at the door, looking at Qiao Ma's hunched figure, and then, through the white curtain, stopped on the white robe, and the protagonist's response was full of indignation and disdain . "Hmph, what kind of famous doctor is someone who only recognizes silver in his eyes?"
