"Mm …" Li Mu replied, and said: "The disaster in the south has been solved, and at the same time, we have garnered the hearts of the people. Anran, how do you know that I will definitely be able to successfully pass through this? "

Was he referring to the flood? As the future Son of Heaven, if she was unable to do such a thing, Shi Anran would definitely doubt her judgement in choosing people. Of course, she would not easily say these words out loud.

"Anran naturally believes in the Third Prince's strength. Now it can be seen that Anran's gamble this time is correct!"

The corner of Li Mu's lips slowly curled up, carrying a hint of a smile that spoke with an unknown meaning, as a slight trace of calculation appeared on his deep facial features: "What do you think royal father will decide at this moment?"

"Firstly, the Third Prince does not have much of a position in the dynasty, and secondly, although the crown prince is somewhat clever, but in the end, he was still unable to compare to the wisdom of the Third Prince. Furthermore, this trip to the south could not prove anything. Let alone the Emperor, even the ministers and princes in the capital thought that the Third Prince was just lucky.

Her words could be said to hit right into Li Mu's heart, and he became even more interested in her: "You're right, just based on this matter alone, it doesn't mean anything, so, what do you think I should do from now on?"

Shi Anran turned around and sat on the chair. After thinking about it for a while, she said seriously: "I heard that Young General unintentionally mention that he might be fighting with an enemy country in the near future, and that the food in the treasury is almost used up by the time we head south. If two armies were to fight, there would definitely not be enough food for the time being. If the Third Prince's food could be used at that time, then it would solve the urgent problem.

"Anran, you really are a god sent by the heavens to gift me a noble person! A foresight that does not lose to any man or advisor! " Li Mu was overjoyed, as if he had already forgotten that he was still wounded.

Shi Anran laughed disapprovingly, and said slowly: "Third Prince is flattering me. However … Why did the Third Prince trust Anran so easily? " What she said was indeed very convincing and she believed it herself. However, it wasn't easy for Li Mu to believe her.

"When I first saw Anran, I felt that she was different from the masses, moreover... I also want to take a gamble. " It was rare for Li Mu to have such a deep smile on her face, but he quickly asked back, "Then Anran better explain it well, and why did you offer to help me at that time?"

Shi Anran laughed but did not say a word. Could it be that he wanted to tell him that she already knew of this, and also knew of what would happen in the future? If these words were spoken, no one would believe it, right?

"What if I say that from the very first time we met the Third Prince, Anran felt that the Third Prince was not an object within a pool? I don't know how much more you can trust in this sentence, Your Highness. "

The two of them had different thoughts. Third Imperial Consort Qi Siyan knocked on the door and walked in. However, she quickly concealed it and walked over with a smile. "Your Highness, you've finally woken up. You've caused chenqie to worry for a long time!"

Li Mu caressed her long hair and comforted her softly: "Love, no need to worry, it's only a small wound!" It hadn't been long since he was injured one after another, so Qi Siyan's heart naturally ached for him.

Seeing how the two of them were acting, Shi Anran bowed respectfully and said lightly: "Since Third Prince is awake, then we shall not disturb Third Prince and his wife's love, Anran will return to the palace to report to the Emperor."

It turned out to be the person sent by the Emperor to visit His Highness. After hearing what was said, Qi Siyan's face became a little more refined as she smiled sweetly, "Thank you, your majesty, for your concern!"

After Shi Anran slightly nodded her head, she left in all seriousness. On the way back, he felt unsettled.

The palanquin slowly walked forward, shaking Shi Anran until she was drowsy.

After a hissing sound, Shi Anran suddenly woke up. Just at this time, a carriage came out from somewhere and crashed into them.

The few people carrying the palanquin were already fleeing in fear, but Shi Anran was still sitting inside, in a daze, as if she had not realised what was happening.

At that moment, a silver sword came out of its scabbard and swept across the roof of the carriage. Then, a pair of powerful arms wrapped around her waist and pulled her up.

"Phew …" When Shi Anran saw all of this, besides being shocked, he also slowly heaved a sigh of relief. After feeling the tight chest behind her back, she inexplicably felt at ease. This scene was almost exactly the same as the one before. The mad horse, the stunned her and the timely Xiang Rongcheng.

Xiang Rongcheng could not help but curse in a low voice, holding her waist and firmly landing on the ground, he turned to look at the palanquin and the mad horse, he was silent for a moment, then asked: "Who wants to kill you?"

"I don't know." This time, she was truly at a loss. Looking at the man who appeared in time to her, regardless of the danger she was in, she suddenly felt a faint sense of heartache and reliance.

"Anran, I hope you can understand that staying by his side is of no benefit to you! When you came out of Third Prince's residence earlier, you were already targeted by others. I advise you to stay away from him in the future! " Xiang Rongcheng was not just saying this out of jealousy, she was simply trying to remind her.

Shi Anran looked into his eyes for a while, then suddenly pouted and smiled, and replied: "Young General has saved me several times, Anran really cannot thank you enough!"

"You know, I don't want your thanks!" Xiang Rongcheng frowned. He only wanted an affirmative answer.

Her heart tensed up, Shi Anran felt that it was a little strange, she forced herself to remain calm, and then she slowly opened her mouth: "Why is the Young General so stubborn?"

Xiang Rongcheng said calmly: "I'm not persistent, Shi Anran, you think too highly of me. It's just that I want to do it. "

It's just that I want to do it...

When she came back to her senses, Shi Anran then pretended to be relaxed and said, "It is already late, Anran is still rushing back to report to the Emperor. Anran will repay Young General for saving his life another day!"

With that, she walked forward, her heart also puzzled over what had just happened. Just who was it that wanted to deal with her?

Only after watching Shi Anran's figure gradually disappear from his sight did Xiang Rongcheng retract his gaze, called out to the shadow beside him, and said in a low voice: "Go and check what happened just now, and see exactly who did it." He would definitely not allow anyone to have any designs on Anran.

Xiang Rongcheng stood firmly in place, his gaze deep and profound. After a long while, he smiled bitterly, and every time he appeared and saved Shi Anran, it was not a coincidence, but he had been paying careful attention to this whole time. Shi Anran said that he would repay Shi Anran for saving his life another day, but after saving him with his life so many times, how could Shi Anran not be grateful? He was afraid that he would only be able to accept it if he gave it to him.
