Yuanyuan hated himself to death, but he couldn't protect the princess.

  was about to listen to Shen Yuning's words and enter the city to move the rescue soldiers, when he heard a stone rolling down into a deep ditch on the cliff in front of him, and there was a thud, which was thrilling in the dark night.

  "It must be Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

  Yuan Yuan excitedly pointed to the cliff in front of him, and Shen Yuning hurriedly commanded the guards to outflank him.

  This sound was indeed made by Su Cao.

  Out of the cave, she could only walk in the mountains by the faint starlight.

  The starlight was faint tonight, and she couldn't even judge the location of Huguo Temple by the stars in the sky, and then she saw the torches winding under the cliff.

  However, what was bad was that she heard footsteps approaching from afar, as if Hou Chen was about to chase after her.

  Su Cao believed that with the tacit understanding between her and Shen Yuning, if she made a little noise, she would definitely be able to attract him, so that even if he fell into the hands of Hou Chen, he would still have a chance to survive.

  In desperation, she picked up a stone and threw it at the deep cliff, and sure enough, the winding torches under the cliff rushed towards the cliff.

  Then, when Hou Chen chased after her and put the sword on her neck, Shen Yuning had already outflanked the pursuers on the cliff.

  The torches lit up the entire mountain cliff, and seeing that Hou Chen had kidnapped Su Cao, Yuan Yuan was so anxious that he wanted to pounce over, but Shen Yuning stopped Yuan Yuan at a critical time.

  "Hou Gongzi, don't get excited, let's talk!"

  Hou Chen's meaning is to break the net, Shen Yuning was so nervous that he couldn't breathe: "Hou Chen, what are you kidnapping Her Royal Highness the princess for?" I meet your conditions, and you let Her Royal Highness the princess go, how? ”

  "But in just half a section, a shabby scholar in Xinghua Village has now become the champion of the infinite scenery of the capital, and Hou has become a prisoner, I heard that the current saint intends to marry the pearl princess to Shen Zhuangyuan, Hou is very envious."

  Hou Chen laughed sarcastically: "Hou wants to marry Princess Mingzhu and be the fast son-in-law of the dragon in today's saint, will Shen Zhuangyuan also satisfy me?" ”

  Yuanyuan is going crazy!

  Shen Yuning was also so angry that he fell down, but he still forced himself to calm down: "Hou Gongzi deliberately provoked me? Yuning has something unclear, Hou Gongzi and Her Royal Highness the princess have no grudges, why did he target Her Royal Highness the princess from the beginning? And caused Uncle Su to die tragically? ”

  When Shen Yuning mentioned Su Zhongxian, Hou Chen obviously felt that Su Cao trembled slightly.

  He denied it repeatedly: "Hou went to the Pearl Lake area, indeed to find the whereabouts of the princess, but he didn't think about killing Su Zhongxian, he bumped into my sword by himself." ”

  "But Uncle Su still died because of you, didn't he?"

  Shen Yuning persuaded him: "The palace with a different surname was destroyed in the battle for imperial power, and the prince of Hou wanted to find someone to take revenge, and he should also find a national teacher, why did he kidnap Her Royal Highness the princess?" Hou Gongzi, the national teacher is Shaohao Guoji Xi, and now he has been put into prison by the saint. ”

  Hou Chen obviously didn't know that the national teacher had been sent to the prison, and the person who asked him to attack Su Cao only said that she was going to come to Huguo Temple to offer incense, and hijacking Su Cao would definitely attract the national teacher.

  As a result, Shen Yuning told him that the national teacher was a spy of Shaohao and had been sent to prison.

  Once he was accused of being a spy in Shao Haoguo, the national teacher in this life could no longer set foot in the Yunze court, from the beginning he never thought of taking the life of the little girl, and now the revenge has been avenged.

  Seeing that Hou Chen seemed to be shaken, Shen Yuning seized the opportunity to persuade her: "The national teacher has been lurking in the Lingyun Dynasty for many years, once he enters the heavenly prison, this life will be catastrophic, why should Hou Gongzi put himself in danger for a dead person, it is better to exchange Her Royal Highness the princess for a life, what does Hou Gongzi think?" ”
