Chapter 439: Caught Out

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Su MO walked over and lifted the curtain. He asked Su Xiaoxiao, “Do you know him?”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “He’s a little eunuch beside Princess Hui An. He’s appeared a few times in the palace school.”

It was not too frequent. Compared to the young eunuch, Princess Hui An preferred to bring the young palace maid out.

Su Xiaoxiao’s gaze landed on the weapon that the young eunuch had dropped. Only then did she realize that it was not an impressive weapon. It was just a rolling pin.

“Princess Hui An asked you to come?” Su Xiaoxiao asked coldly.

The young eunuch remained silent.

Su Xiaoxiao pressed his head to the floor. “Tell me! Where’s Princess Hui An?!”

In the Heaven-grade room on the second floor of Xiangyun Pavilion, Princess Hui An was sipping tea in boredom.

She had secretly run out of the palace and taken her third brother’s token. Now, she was dressed like a palace maid. However, she was naturally beautiful. Even though she was wearing the clothes of a palace maid and a veil, she could not hide her elegance.

When the waiter came to serve tea, he couldn’t help but take a few more glances at her.

Princess Hui An said fiercely, “What are you looking at! If you continue looking, I’ll dig out your eyeballs!”

The shop assistant shrunk his neck in fear and hurriedly put down the tea before leaving.

Princess Hui An muttered unhappily, “What’s going on? He’s been gone for so long…

Creak—

The door was pushed open.

Su Xiaoxiao walked in with a calm expression.

Behind her was the dejected young eunuch.

Princess Hui An glanced around and immediately sat up straight. She said with a straight face, “I asked you to capture someone. Why did it take so long? Also!

Don’t you know how to tie him up with a rope!”

The person was tied up, but it was not Su Xiaoxiao who was tied up, but Princess Hui An’s eunuch.

The young eunuch walked out from behind Su Xiaoxiao.

Seeing that his hands were tied and his head was lowered, Princess Hui An’s expression changed.

“How could this be? Su Daya! What did you do to my people!”

Su Xiaoxiao said indifferently, “I should be the one asking Princess Hui An this. In broad daylight, under the feet of the world, Princess Hui An actually instigated a eunuch to commit murder in my carriage. Does Princess Hui An have no respect for the law?”

Princess Hui An’s eyes flashed. “Who… who attacked you? I just have something to say to you, so I got someone to call you over!”

Princess Hui An choked.

She crossed her arms, turned her face away, and rolled her eyes. “Well, you weren’t caught.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “If you have something to say, say it. I’m not as free as the princess.”

“You…”

Princess Hui An was furious.

Her mother had said that her words were unpleasant. She should really let her mother hear how vulgar this girl was!

Princess Hui An looked at Su Xiaoxiao proudly with a cold expression. “Since you’re here, I won’t beat around the bush with you. If you give up your engagement with Wei Ting, I can agree to one condition! Or I’ll owe you a favor! ”

Su Xiaoxiao almost laughed. “Is your favor very impressive? Princess Hui An’s almond-shaped eyes widened. “I’m a princess!” “So what?” Su Xiaoxiao asked indifferently.

Princess Hui An had never seen such an arrogant person in her life!

She frowned and said angrily, “Don’t be ungrateful! It seems like you want to do this the hard way! It’s best if you listen to me when I speak to you patiently!

Otherwise, once I get angry, it won’t be something you can withstand!”

Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and smiled. “So all these years, the princess has used her royal status to force her love rivals back?”

Princess Hui An snorted. “So what if I did? Go on the streets and ask if there’s any reckless woman who dares to snatch my husband!”

After saying that arrogantly, she muttered softly, “Other than Guo Lingxi.”

Guo Lingxi had the support of the Grand Empress Dowager, and even her father protected her.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the sky and sighed.

She was a little sleepy.

She originally thought that she had caught a big fish, but it turned out to be an unruly princess.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “What if I don’t agree?”

Princess Hui An said fiercely, “If you don’t agree… the consequences will be very serious!”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “Oh? How serious is it?”

Princess Hui An threatened, “I’ll make you unable to stay in the capital!” Su Xiaoxiao left.

Princess Hui An stomped her feet in anger and pointed at Su Xiaoxiao. “You, you, you, you… I haven’t finished speaking! Who allowed you to leave!”

“Stop right there!”

“Come back!”

“You’re not allowed to marry Wei Ting!”

“You… ‘

Su Xiaoxiao was already far away.

After returning to the carriage, Su MO put down the peeled walnuts. “Are you done?”

“Yes.” Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “I didn’t think that there would be a problem with Princess Hui An, but to be safe, I went to take a look.”

Su Xiaoxiao hugged the walnut jar. “Has she always been like this?”

Su MO said, “As far as I know, you’re the first person to anger her to this extent. ”

Su Xiaoxiao picked up a walnut. “Then I’m really amazing.”

Su MO laughed. “But you don’t have to worry. Princess Hui An is just a little unruly and willful. She’s not vicious.”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “A dignified princess will always have a few powerful guards around her. If she really wanted to get rid of me, she wouldn’t have sent just a little eunuch to capture me.”

Su MO said, “That’s true.”

Su Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes.

This expression on her face was like a greedy little fat squirrel suddenly looking like a fox.

Su MO was a little mesmerized by her cuteness and asked in amusement, “What are you thinking about?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “I’m wondering if that person doesn’t know that Wei Ting and

I were betrothed?”

Su MO thought for a moment and said, “It has long spread in the capital. As long as he’s in the capital, he will definitely hear about it. However, this matter is very important. In order not to alert the enemy, he might want to think about it at length.”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “I was anxious. It’s only the first day.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she pulled another walnut. Unexpectedly, her hand slipped and the walnut fell.

She quickly bent down to pick it up, but she saw the rolling pin on the stool.

“Oh, I forgot to return the rolling pin to Princess Hui An.” She picked up the walnut and the rolling pin.

In an instant, she sensed that something was wrong.

“What’s wrong?” Su MO asked.

She put the walnut jar back on the table and weighed the rolling pin in her hand.

Seeing this, Su MO took the rolling pin. “It’s so heavy. There seems to be something inside.”

He turned it around and looked at the rolling pin in his hand. He saw an extremely slender crack in the middle.

Just as he was about to break the rolling pin along the crack, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly grabbed the rolling pin and threw it out!

With a crack, the rolling pin cracked.

More than ten long needles shot out, and one of them shot into the carriage.

Su MO suddenly slammed the table and shook one hand, sending the walnut jar flying.

He backhanded the walnut jar.

The long needle hit the walnut jar. With a bang, the jar shattered, and walnut kernels scattered all over the ground.

Su MO blocked Su Xiaoxiao with his body.

After the commotion stopped, he stood up and asked Su Xiaoxiao, “Are you alright?”

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the broken nuts on the ground and pouted. She said in pain, “My walnuts…”

Su MO was speechless.

The two of them alighted from the carriage.

Su Xiaoxiao checked the long needles. “They’re poisonous.”

Su Xiaoxiao said thoughtfully, “The rolling pin fell from the young eunuch’s hand, and the young eunuch was sent by Princess Hui An… Could it be that Princess Hui An wants to kill me? No, if she had the intention to kill me, she wouldn’t have had that reaction just now. ”

“There’s something wrong with that little eunuch!”

“Princess Hui An is in danger!”

“Your Majesty! Your Majesty!”

Eunuch Quan stumbled in and fell to the ground.

Emperor Jing Xuan was annoyed. “What’s wrong this time?

Eunuch Quan choked. “Princess… Princess Hui An is missing! Tao Hong has also been knocked unconscious…”

Emperor Jing Xuan said coldly, “Make yourself clear!”

How could Eunuch Quan explain it clearly?

He quickly looked at the imperial study. “Tao Hong is at the door. She knows!” The little palace maid called Tao Hong was brought into the imperial study.

She knelt on the ground and cried as she told him about Princess Hui An secretly leaving the palace.

On the way back to the palace, someone suddenly barged into the carriage and knocked me out. When I woke up… the princess was gone… and so was

Little Zhuozi…”

Emperor Jing Xuan felt dizzy.

Hui An was his most doted daughter, more doted on than a few princes—

Emperor Jing Xuan was furious. “Who allowed you to bring the princess out of the palace? Other than you, who else knows about her leaving the palace?”

Tao Hong sobbed. “There’s… there’s also Physician Su! The princess sent Xiao Zhuozi to capture her and even threatened… If she doesn’t cancel her marriage with Lord Wei, she won’t be able to stay in the capital!”

Eunuch Quan was shocked.. “Ah, could it be… that Princess Hui An threatened her and in a fit of anger… she kidnapped Princess Hui An?”
