Shengjing Noble

Chapter 261 Seducing the Prince

"Thank you for not killing me, Your Majesty... I will do anything you ask me to do!"

"Listen carefully, if anything goes wrong with what I am about to tell you, your whole family will not survive!"

"Yes!"

……

After an incense stick of time, the door was opened and Su Yongcheng and Su Lanxin looked inside with anticipation.

"You two, please come in."

"Yes."

The two walked in one after the other, and saw Ma Xiaotong sitting beside Fu Wuyang crying, while his hands were gently and lovingly stroking her hair. It was a beautiful scene.

"I have already made it clear. Tongtong is indeed my adopted daughter. You and your daughter have made great contributions. What reward do you want?"

Hearing Fu Wuyang say this, Su Yongcheng was overjoyed and immediately knelt on the ground.

"It is my honor to be able to find the little princess for the prince. I do not ask for a reward from the prince, but only hope that the prince can sympathize with the people."

"Oh? How do you want me to show sympathy?"

Su Lanxin said, "Your Highness, you don't know that my half-sister Su Lanyin hid a batch of disaster relief grain and refused to hand it over. My father and I really can't do anything about her. If we can't appease the people, I'm afraid the consequences will be disastrous."

There was a barely perceptible gleam in Fu Wuyang's eyes, and a figure appeared in his mind.

Could it be the woman who was arrested at the city gate? Is she the famous Su Lanyin?

He had heard of this girl's deeds a long time ago. She helped his brother win the first prize in the poetry competition and asked the emperor for a promise to allow his elder brother to take the martial arts examination when he was healthy again.

Not only that, she also facilitated the divorce of her father and mother, and took her uncle to provide disaster relief and help the poor.

How could such a capable woman deliberately withhold the relief grain as Su Lanxin said?

"I will personally investigate this matter. If what you said is true, I will investigate it to the end! Bring Su Lanyin to see me!"

"Yes!"

……

Inside the cell.

Su Lanyin was thinking that her second brother and others would arrive by then, and she didn't notice the footsteps coming from outside.

The cell door was opened, and she turned around and saw a man in black. He was tall and straight, and he walked very quietly. He must have good martial arts skills. No wonder she was distracted and didn't notice him.

"who are you?"

The man cupped his hands, his attitude was quite polite: "County Lady, I am the attendant of King Xiaoyao. The prince wants to see you for something, so he specially ordered me to come and invite you over."

"King Xiaoyao..." Su Lanyin hesitated for a moment. After all, she didn't know whether this person was an enemy or a friend.

There was no way to hide now, so she might as well face the challenge head on. She wanted to see what this King Xiaoyao was up to.

Su Lanyin stood up and brushed the dust off her clothes, her expression calm without any fear or nervousness.

"lead the way."

Liu Feng has followed Fu Wuyang for many years and has met many different kinds of people, but this is the first time he has seen a woman as calm and composed as Su Lanyin.

In the past, when those women heard that they could be summoned by King Xiaoyao, they were all very excited. Even those women who had seen the world were filled with joy.

But this Su Lanyin had no expression on her face and even looked lazy all over, as if meeting Fu Wuyang was a perfunctory thing.

While he was daydreaming, Su Lanyin had already walked out of the cell and was walking away on her own.

……

Ma Xiaotong had been taken away by Fu Wuyang's men, and Su Yongcheng and Su Lanxin were also driven out of the yard.

The two of them stood outside the yard and saw Su Lanyin walking towards them from afar with a calm face.

Su Lanxin showed a smug look when she saw her, and took the initiative to step forward and taunted her, "Didn't you say you wouldn't come out? Why are you willing to come out now? I'm warning you, King Xiaoyao is not something you can dream of!"

Su Lanyin sneered, looked her up and down, and then curled her lips in disgust.

He didn't say a word, but he cursed very badly.

Su Lanxin was so provoked that she wanted to get angry, but she didn't dare to act rashly because she was in King Xiaoyao's courtyard behind her.

She gnashed her teeth and said, "The prince already knows that you secretly hid the relief grain. Your good days are over now!"

"Really? That's great. We've been living such a good life that it's ruined us. It's a good opportunity for me to experience the hard life that your Su family usually lives through."

"Don't be so proud!" Su Lanxin was furious. "I warn you, don't even think about seducing the prince. He's mine!"

Su Yongcheng urged impatiently, "My dear daughter, why are you wasting time talking to her? With her vulgar appearance, it's strange that the prince would like her! What's more, you helped King Xiaoyao find the little princess. He must be very grateful to you and will definitely repay you well."

Su Lanxin then revealed a smug smile and boasted, "Soon I will be able to get close to King Xiaoyao, and you will become a prisoner. He will then hand you over to the emperor for punishment!"

Su Lanyin was so speechless that she wanted to roll her eyes, and she urged the wind behind her with disdain.

"Can we please leave faster? These two flies are giving me a headache."

"Yes! County Lady, please come this way!"

Upon seeing this, Liu Feng immediately stepped forward and pushed the Su father and daughter aside, then respectfully led the way for Su Lanyin.

"It's really noisy!"

Su Lanyin finally rolled her eyes at the father and daughter, then walked into the yard with a proud look on her face.

"Bitch! Let's see how proud you are later!" Su Lanxin gritted her teeth.

……

As soon as Su Lanyin entered the room, Liu Feng closed the door. The enclosed space was filled with a depressing atmosphere.

She raised her eyes and saw the man sitting upright on the couch. She didn't dare to look at him carefully and walked over to greet him.

"Your servant Su Lanyin pays homage to King Xiaoyao."

The man looked at her deeply. It was too dim that night so he couldn't see her face clearly, and the city gate was too far away so he couldn't take a close look.

Now that it is right in front of me, I can see it clearly.

The girl was dressed in plain clothes with her long hair casually tied up. There was no unnecessary decoration on her body. If this outfit was worn by an ordinary girl, she would look like a village woman.

But on Su Lanyin's body, she was as fresh and refined as a lotus in clear water.

Even though she had been locked up in the dungeon for a long time, she did not look dishevelled at all. Even the scattered hair on her forehead exuded a soft beauty.

The slightly drooped eyes and the long and thick eyelashes trembled slightly, casting a fan-shaped shadow, making the nose more delicate and three-dimensional.

Perhaps because she was in the dungeon without seeing the sun, her lips looked a little pale and not as rosy as they had in the past few days.

But instead of making her look haggard, it made her look much more elegant.

With such a look, she would be stunning even if she wore a sack.

"Are you Su Lanyin?"

After a long silence, Fu Wuyang asked in a cold voice.

Su Lanyin, who was kneeling on the ground, nodded and replied: "Yes, I am Su Lanyin."

He looked obedient on the surface, but couldn't help rolling his eyes in his heart.

Is this King Xiaoyao deaf? She just introduced herself and asked another question, as if she had some serious illness!
