Jing Qi hesitated and then continued with a little difficulty, "For such a serious case, according to the rules, once it is reported to the Ministry of Justice, the punishment will be for the latter half of the fall. But when Lord Qi said the matter was urgent, he immediately made a decision. He wanted to eliminate this evil thief in front of the people to appease them. "

Shen Ling Jue frowned: "Done? "Nonsense."

Feng Ning Yan was also stunned, but she still understood Qi Cang's thoughts.

"With this kind of incident, the people of Southern Ning must be terrified. In order to maintain their stability, Lord Qi had no choice but to deal with Cao Tianshu as soon as possible. But Shen Youhuang was here for this. How could she not know? Wasn't this like falling into a trap? Shen Youhuang was just worrying that there was no reason for her to deal with Lord Qi! "

Shen Ling Jue sat down and drank a mouthful of tea, but did not say a word as though he was deep in thought.

"Qi Cang holds an important position. With a war going on, the Southern Ning army cannot be in chaos." Jingqi was also in a difficult situation, "But the citizens are shouting and fighting for Cao Tianshu, even Lord Qi would find it hard to do."

Shen Ling Jue put down his teacup and said resolutely, "Jing Qi, prepare the horses, let's go to Ningnan County."

"The Prince wants to go to the Ning Nan Prefecture's yamen to stop Lord Qi?" Jing Qi quickly asked.

"No, give him a hand!" As Shen Ling Jue said this, he pulled Feng Ning Yan and walked out of the tent.

At this moment, by the window of Heng City, Shen Youhuang was also letting go of the flapping wings of the pigeon and unfolding a small slip of paper.

He only skimmed through a few lines of words on the paper, and couldn't help but reveal a sinister smile: "Shen Lingjue! Haha, you still want to protect Qi Cang? I want to see how you will protect this time! "

When Hua Ruyu heard him mumbling to himself, she realized that Shen Youhuang had caught on to Shen Ling Jue's weakness and stood up excitedly. "Your highness, what good news do you have?"

"Cao Tianshu has been captured by Qi Cang." Shen Youhuang said confidently, "However, I've already sent a message to Pei Shi to resolve this matter."

When Hua Ruyu heard the first half of the sentence, she was slightly surprised. But when she heard the second half, she was relieved. She smiled as she flattered, "Your highness really doesn't change at all. Everything is like a god!"

Shen Youhuang waved the slip of paper in her hand, "I just received news that in order to pacify the commoners, Qi Cang has decided to sentence Cao Tianshu to death. To kill a felon without reporting to the Ministry of Justice was tantamount to turning a blind eye to the law. He really did not want his black gauze hat anymore! This time, This King will definitely not let him off! "

Shen Youhuang then called out to her men, "Prepare the horses!"

Hua Ruyu hurriedly put on the cloak for Chen Youhuang.

"Ruo Yu, you go with us. If you encounter any patrolling guards from the Southern Ning Army questioning them, just say that we're going back to the city to play." Shen Youhuang flicked her cloak and turned to speak.

Hua Ruyu smiled sweetly, "That's right, chenqie also wants to see the expressions of Feng Ningyan and Shen Lingjue who have met with misfortune!"

The two immediately prepared their horses and headed towards Ningnan County.

On the public road, Shen Lingjue and Feng Ning Yan galloped towards Ningnan County at top speed, while Jingqi and the personal guards of Prince Yu's mansion followed closely behind.

On both sides of the road, there were high mountains and dense forests. The wind blew drearily. The ride was done, and the dust quickly disappeared in the wind.

Halfway there, the sun had already risen high in the sky. Everyone had already finished drinking the water they brought with them. Feng Ning Yan called for everyone to stop for a moment and then went to the stream by the forest to fetch water and drink the horses.

Shen Ling Jue jumped off the horse and helped Feng Ning Yan off her horse. Seeing the sweat on her forehead, he picked up the handkerchief and lightly wiped it, saying, "There's no need to worry. We'll be in Ningnan in another hour."

Feng Ning Yan nodded. She took the dry water bag from her waist and was about to get some water when she suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves approaching. It was followed by the sound of wheels coming from the direction they had come from.

Everyone stood up to look and saw a carriage rapidly approaching.

Feng Ningyan could tell with a glance that the two horses leading the way were being led by a person wearing the clothing of the personal guards of Prince Cheng's estate. Naturally, it was Shen Youhuang who had come.

In her heart, she had already turned to look at Shen Ling Jue.

"This Shen Youhuang is really fast!" "He went to Ningnan County for the sake of Cao Tianshou. It seems like he has spies in the city."

Shen Ling Jue nodded his head, "If we let him pass, then Qi Cang's official position and life will be gone."

"I'll go stop him!" When Jing Qi heard this, he immediately urged his horse to block the road.

Shen Ling Jue replied, "It's not our business to block him. However, it's better to meet him by chance."

When Feng Ningyan heard this, she smiled and understood his meaning. "Let me do it."

She walked back to the side of the path after speaking and sat on a rock, fanning the wind with a brocade carriage as she waited for Shen Youhuang's carriage to draw near.

When the carriage drew closer, Feng Ning Yan could see half a head sticking out of the window. What was dazzling was the Pearl Jadeite Flower that was like the rain.

She came too? That's better.

Feng Ning Yan stood up and waved at the carriage with a smile.

"Oh, Prince Cheng and his consort are also in the mood today. Why are they out on an outing? We thought about going together. "

The carriage stopped. When Shen Youhuang heard Feng Ning Yan's voice, she knew that Shen Ling Jue was definitely here.

"Your Highness, it's them …" Hua Ruyu closed the curtain of the carriage and softly said, "This is the wilderness, far from the dragon's teeth, but close to Ningnan. Could it be that they are here for Cao Tianshu?"

"Nonsense." Shen Youhuang sneered, "If I make a move on Qi Cang, it'll be equivalent to setting the Ning Nan Army's backyard on fire. Shen Lingjue and Feng Ningyan only need to know that Qi Cang has sentenced Cao Tianshu to a decisive battle, and they'll naturally stop that fellow from doing foolish things."

"Then we can't get off the carriage, in case something goes wrong!" Hua Ruyu said anxiously.

Shen Youhuang lifted her robes and pushed open the door to get out of the car.

"What's there to be afraid of? They're still here, looks like they're resting." If they aren't in a hurry, then what are we in a hurry for? "

After Hua Ruyu heard this, she suddenly laughed, "That's right, if we were to delay them, who would stop Qi Cang? As long as Qi Cang truly dares to kill Cao Tianshu, even Lord Tathagata the Buddha will not be able to save him! "

The two happily got off the car and walked towards Shen Ling Jue and Feng Ning Yan with relaxed steps.

"The weather is very good today. Ruo Yu has been recuperating in the Heng Wu Residence for many days and is feeling really depressed, so I took her on a shopping trip to Ningnan County to buy some rouge and cosmetics. I didn't think that Brother Yuwang and Aunt Wang were also here."

When Hua Ruyu heard this, she covered her mouth and smiled: "Cousin is dressed in men's clothes, and does not dress up. Could she be going shopping for makeup?"

At this time, everyone was already aware of what they were going to do in Ningnan County.

However, when Hua Ruyu retorted with that question, Feng Ningyan became slightly anxious and was unable to find an excuse.

At this time, Shen Ling Jue had already walked to the side of Feng Ning Yan, his hand lightly holding onto her shoulder. Lowering his head, he looked at her unblemished yet incomparably beautiful face, and said with a smile:

"Princess Hua-Yang is born with a natural beauty. She doesn't need any vulgar powder to set off her beauty. When we recited that the Second Madam was pregnant and that the month was big, we wanted to take advantage of the truce to go back and see if there was anything we could help with. "

When Feng Ning Yan heard this, she raised her head to look at Shen Ling Jue and smiled faintly.

Unexpectedly, he still remembered the matter of Second Madam getting pregnant. His brain worked very quickly as he helped her get out of trouble. It was a perfect reason.
