Father, who is both a heir and a descendant, is still biased; the bound system has gone berserk.

Ying Yufu looked at Princess Minghuang with suspicion. Why did she feel that Princess Minghuang looked so much like Sister Wushuang?

Oh right, where is Sister Wushuang?

It seems like she hasn't seen Sister Wushuang in quite a while.

Ying Yufu blinked, scratched her head, looked at Princess Minghuang, and called out, "Sister Wushuang?"

Minghuang: "..."

"Huh? You're looking for Wushuang? Where is Wushuang?" Princess Minghuang looked around.

This is like trying to hide something obvious; Princess Minghuang's act is incredibly fake.

Regardless of whether Ying Yufu believed her or not, Princess Minghuang gracefully straightened her skirt, which had been disheveled from running, and sat back down with elegant poise.

His eyes, however, couldn't help but peek outside, as if he really wanted to go out and fight.

Ying Yufu looked at the Crown Prince with a questioning gaze.

The crown prince winked at her.

They didn't say anything, yet it's as if they said something.

Ying Yufu understood, oh, she understood! Sister Wushuang was another secret identity of Princess Minghuang, and no one else could know it.

In the dream, the peerless female general suddenly appeared, catching the Second Prince and his companions off guard.

Normally, Sister Wushuang appears in public as the Crown Prince's secret guard, probably to mislead others.

Yes, that must be it.

"I'm going out to take a look. Your Highness, you and Princess Minghuang stay here. Grand Tutor, don't go out either. It's dangerous outside. Sheng'er, you too."

Ying Yufu patted her chest, indicating that this was the time for her to step in.

Princess Minghuang's lips twitched slightly as she looked at her helplessly.

"Fu'er, you must be careful!"

The Crown Prince knew that Ying Yufu was very strong.

Ying Yufu smiled confidently at him: "Your Highness, don't worry, I'm very capable!"

Ying Yufu lifted her skirt and ran out.

"Oh dear, this—"

When Grand Tutor Hai saw that Ying Yufu, a young girl, had actually run out, his expression immediately changed.

He turned to look at the Crown Prince, but instead of seeing the Crown Prince, he met Shangguan Sheng's expressionless face.

"Where are the Crown Prince and Minghuang? They were just here!" Grand Tutor Hai asked instinctively.

Shangguan raised his hand and pointed to the gate.

As soon as Hai Taifu turned his head, he saw the Crown Prince and Princess Minghuang sneaking out one after the other.

Hai Taifu's expression immediately changed. "Your Highness, you mustn't go out! It's dangerous!"

Boom!

The door to the secret room closed again.

"Grandfather, you and Shangguan Sheng stay inside and don't come out!"

The crown prince left behind a message.

Taifu Hai: "..."

He won't go out? How can I feel at ease if he doesn't go out? This wretched child!

At that moment, he truly felt some sympathy for His Majesty.

Without saying a word, Hai Taifu walked out.

I had just taken one step when I heard footsteps behind me.

As soon as Hai Taifu turned his head, he saw that Shangguan Sheng had also followed.

Hai Taifu immediately said, "Oh dear, my little benefactor, don't go out and join the fun. You stay here, and I'll come in to find you in a bit."

Shangguan Sheng stared at him with his dark eyes, "You're an old man, and you're not much better than me."

Taifu Hai: "..."

Oh dear, how can this child talk like that?

The old man and the young boy stared at each other, and finally, Grand Tutor Hai gave in, and the two figures went out together.

At this moment, the guards and servants in the Hai Mansion were on high alert, vigilantly watching their surroundings.

Two guards rushed over and asked, "Have you seen the assassin?"

"Didn't you see it? Didn't you just go after them?"

"not good!"

One of the guards' expressions hardened, and he quickly chased after the guard in one direction.

Upon seeing this, half of the other guards followed and chased after them, while the other half remained in place to defend.

The Hai family's storeroom was temporarily converted into a private prison, where Old Duan was imprisoned.

Footsteps suddenly sounded in the secret room. Old Duan opened his eyes groggily and saw that the person was a masked man in black.

Her face lit up with joy, and she said, "Was it...did Jinlang send you? Did he send you to rescue me?"

"Yes," the masked man in black replied in a low voice.

Old Madam Duan burst into tears. "Quickly, untie me! The Hai family is inhuman! They almost beat me to death!"

Old Duan was excited and urged them repeatedly.

The man in black didn't move; instead, he stood there watching her.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and come save me!" Old Duan urged anxiously.

The man in black's exposed eyes were exceptionally cold. He suddenly asked, "How were you exposed?"

Old Duan said, "It's all that's to blame..."

"Alright, that's enough. Master will investigate. You're useless now. Master sent me to send you on your way."

After the man in black finished speaking, he brandished a bright silver longsword, aiming straight for Old Duan's throat.

Old Madam Duan's eyes widened, and in her extremely magnified pupils, the bright silver light of the long sword was clearly reflected.

The fear of death and the fact that Jinlang had betrayed her left her completely stunned, losing her instinct to scream.

Ding!

Just as the long sword was about to sever Old Duan's throat, a pebble suddenly appeared out of nowhere and struck the bright silver blade with a "clang".

The man in black felt a tremendous force suddenly strike him. His wrist, which was gripping the knife, throbbed with pain, and the blade veered off course by half a foot, causing his attack to miss its mark.

The man in black stumbled, and a hand suddenly grabbed his shoulder and helped him straighten up.

"Oh dear, you can't even stand properly and you want to be an assassin? Your master really has no one else to use."

The girl's teasing voice was soft and sweet. The man in black turned his head in shock and was met with a delicate and beautiful face.

This can't be real!

What kind of monster is this?

Within a very short time, two thoughts flashed through the man in black's mind.

He was incredulous, but reacted extremely quickly. In the blink of an eye, he twisted his wrist and the long knife slashed towards Ying Yufu's neck.

"don't want!"

A scream suddenly rang out, and His Highness the Crown Prince ran and scrambled, stretching out his arms to grab at this side.

At the same time, Ying Yufu raised her other hand, her slender and delicate hand clamping the blade between her fingers with a forceful pull.

Clang!

Click!

Pfft!

Two crisp sounds rang out, and half of the knife fell to the ground.

With a muffled thud, His Highness the Crown Prince fell face down at the feet of the man in black.

However, at this moment, the man in black paid no attention to his footing. He stared at the broken knife in his hand with a look of utter shock.

Ying Yufu ignored the man in black and quickly bent down to lift the prince up.

His Highness the Crown Prince was lifted up by the back of his collar by Ying Yufu, his fair and pretty face covered in filth.

A trace of fear and terror still lingered on his face.

His two dark eyes darted around, and he pulled Ying Yufu into his arms.

"You scared me to death!"

Ying Yufu was held in the Crown Prince's arms, and for a moment her little face was blank.

Seeing this, the man in black flipped his wrist, and the hidden weapons flew out of his hand, one heading towards them and the other towards Old Duan.

Ying Yufu raised her hand, caught the hidden weapon, and shot it at the man in black.

Meanwhile, Princess Minghuang flashed over and deflected the hidden weapon aimed at Old Duan with a single sword strike, then shot it back at the man in black.

With two soft thuds, the man in black suffered injuries to both his left knee and right shoulder blade, and he half-knelt on the ground.

He looked up, his eyes wide, staring intently at the unbelievable scene before him.

A delicate and sweet little girl, and a princess who has long lived in the deep palace.

Everything was beyond their expectations.

Unfortunately, he was unable to bring such important news back to his master.
