According to the empress dowager's plan, she was going to call Nangong Waner over to make things difficult for her.

She did not expect that a Assistant Minister’s Residence girl would not lose to the Prime Minister's daughter, Qin Ruxue, in terms of looks, manners, and talents. The matter did not go according to the empress dowager's plan, and Nangong Waner did not reveal anything inappropriate. Instead, he looked extremely dazzling, leaving the empress dowager speechless.

The atmosphere in the chamber was strange, and everyone sat in silence. In the end, ZhanWang spoke first, breaking the deadlock. "Imperial Mother, your son is leaving for the border tomorrow at dawn. Today, your son will take his leave." As he spoke, he glanced at the empress dowager and then at Nangong Wan'er.

Nangong Waner was stunned by Prince Zhan's words. She did not know that Chu Xiuhan was going to the border tomorrow.

Before the empress dowager could reply, Prince Zhan seemed to have thought of something and added, "Wan Er, didn't Elder Xiu set up a course for you to inspect in the afternoon? You can leave with This King. " After saying that, without waiting for Nangong Waner's reaction, he pulled Nangong Waner out of the hall by himself.

The three people in the hall were extremely shocked. Prince Zhan, who normally did not let strangers within three meters of him, actually took the initiative to pull on Nangong Waner's hand.

The emperor's smile was a bit treacherous, as if he was going to beat Prince Zhan up sooner or later. The empress dowager's smile was actually somewhat comforting, although it was not the Xue'er that she liked the most, it was still a good thing for the Prince Zhan to have someone he liked. As a prince, marrying a few Prince Zhan was not a big deal, the empress dowager comforted Qin Ruxue a little.

Qin Ruxue's expression was currently not very good. To be exact, it was extremely unsightly. The empress dowager's heart ached for her, and she was lectured for a long time.

Being yelled at so early in the morning to perform was strange, even if his mood was good, but he had nowhere to release his anger, so naturally, he could only vent it on Chu Xiuhan.

Nangong Waner flung Chu Xiuhan's hand away fiercely and took advantage of the situation to drag Chu Xiuhan over. However, Nangong Waner walked away angrily, walking quickly, walking even Nangong Waner himself felt that something was amiss, "Why are my legs like popping cotton". After struggling for a few more steps, Nangong Waner almost fell to the ground.

"Ah —" The palace maids had naturally not seen such a scene before and thought that Nangong Waner was the woman who stuck close to her and threw herself into his arms, waiting for the Prince Zhan to throw her out.

"Is my leg numb?" Prince Zhan gently embraced Nangong Waner.

Nangong Waner looked at the dumbstruck palace maids around him and felt extremely embarrassed. Struggling to get up from Prince Zhan's embrace, he respectfully said to Prince Zhan, "Wan Er's legs are weak right now, thank you, Prince, for helping me out." Pushing aside the prince, he threw him into the air without a care for his own safety, but his legs were weak, and there was some twitching pain as he ran, causing him to stagger.

This time, he did not give Nangong Waner any chance to struggle free. Taking a big step forward, he carried Nangong Waner in his arms, "Stop messing around, it's only a few steps and I'll carry you to the carriage."

"Put me down, quickly put me down," Nangong Waner began to struggle in the arms of the Prince Zhan. The palace maids and eunuchs who passed by all recognized the Prince Zhan, and they were all dumbstruck.

Prince Zhan did not mind at all as he strode out of the palace with Nangong Waner in his arms. When Nangong Waner saw their gazes, he immediately covered his face with his hands.

"Just …" That must be the Prince Zhan right? " A palace maid looked at the back of the figure as it disappeared into the distance and asked a palace maid beside her.

"Mm …" It looked like a Prince Zhan, but … Maybe it's just like that. " The other palace maid also blankly stared at the figure as it disappeared into the distance.

"What are you two doing? "Just standing here like that, where are you going?" A mama in charge looked at the two palace maids who were fooling around on the way and said.

"Grandma, Prince Zhan seems to be carrying a woman out of the palace." The young palace maid who had spoken earlier looked at the mama, unable to believe what she had just said.

"What nonsense are you spouting in the middle of the day? Hurry up and go back to work." The mama looked at the two little palace maids and said with some dissatisfaction.

Seeing that the two young palace maids had walked a little further away, the mama rolled her eyes. Looking at their retreating backs, she said, "This new batch of palace maids really can't do it. It's fine if their hands aren't nimble, but they're young and their eyes aren't good." What Prince Zhan carrying a woman out of the palace, this mama naturally didn't believe it. She had been in the palace for more than ten years, let alone a woman, the Prince Zhan was so far away from men.

On the other side, Prince Zhan carried Nangong Waner and got on the horse carriage. "Returning to the Duke Palaces", the Prince Zhan's cold voice reached Zi Ye's ears, who smiled and drove the horse carriage back to his residence.

In the carriage, Nangong Waner was still making a ruckus. She turned her face away with her cheeks puffed up.

The Prince Zhan gently lifted Nangong Waner's leg and placed it on his lap, massaging it carefully, "Maybe it's been standing for too long, it's been numb for a long time."

"Hmph", Nangong Waner still didn't look away, and wasn't willing to take care of Prince Zhan.

Prince Zhan rubbed Nangong Waner's legs as he said to him gently, "Maybe I'm hungry, so I'm not in a good mood?"

When Nangong Waner heard the meaning behind Prince Zhan's words, he felt that she was hungry and lost her temper. The anger in his heart immediately flared up and he turned to face Prince Zhan and roared: Who did you say was causing trouble for no reason, who did you say was throwing a tantrum?

The Prince Zhan's voice immediately became softer as he smiled at Nangong Waner, "I didn't say that you were angry, but I was afraid that you were hungry. I entered the palace early this morning, and I didn't expect that you would also enter the palace, so there's nothing for you to eat in this carriage."

It was fine to not talk about entering the palace, but the moment he spoke of entering Nangong Waner's palace, he got angry. Instead, he was yelled at very early in the morning, washed and dressed up, entered the palace to perform before blocking Qin Ruxue's huge peach blossom.

It was all because of Chu Xiuhan.

The more Nangong Waner thought about it, the angrier he got, although he did not think deeply about the reason behind his anger, nor did he think deeply about why she had helped Prince Zhan block Qin Ruxue's huge peach. In short, the more Nangong Waner thought about it, the angrier he got.

Prince Zhan's face revealed a terrified expression as he slowly dodged to the back of the carriage. How could Nangong Waner give him the chance to escape? Looking at the Prince Zhan, his eyes revealed a ruthless light, "Why is there nothing for me to eat? I'll eat you! " With that, Nangong Waner fiercely bit down on Prince Zhan's nose.
