Her guards

Chapter 273 It turns out to be him
Arrogance among the sons of powerful and wealthy families is a common occurrence.

However, we don't see many people dressed in embroidered clothes.

Because if someone is stubborn in front of them, they will immediately back down after being hit with a stick or a knife and drawing blood.

However, princesses and princes are different.

Actually, it's not that different. The leader of the Embroidered Robes thought, what would happen if Wei Jiao were here at this moment?
He looked at the girl standing in front of him.

I'm afraid Wei Jiao has already slapped him across the face, making his mouth and nose bleed...

So what if she's a princess?
Wei Jiao even fought the King of the East Sea.

A madman, when he goes mad, treats all beings equally.

but……

The leader of the embroidered-clothes felt a pang of sadness; he was, after all, not Wei Jiao.

“Princess,” he said, lowering his eyes, “I too shall die for disobeying Your Majesty’s decree.”

Yang Luo suddenly smiled again, her eyes softening.

“That’s why I said I wouldn’t make things difficult for you,” she said. “I’ll go and ask for the imperial decree right now. I just ask that you don’t touch them until then.”

After saying that, he looked at the guards standing in the cell.

"If anyone dares to harm the chief priest and others before I return."

"Kill without mercy."

The guards responded in unison.

Yang Luo smiled at the embroidered leader again: "Don't you think this is good?"

This princess didn't seem quite right either. The leader of the embroidered-clothes group didn't say anything more and bowed his head in agreement.

Yang Luo looked at Wang Zaitian again, and Wang Zaitian looked at her with a kind expression and nodded.

Yang Luo didn't say anything and turned to leave.

……

……

"Miss Yang, I feel this matter is somewhat dangerous."

As they left the dungeon and walked out, Peach Blossom spoke in a low voice.

"The portrait I saw the leader was holding just now was..."

Yang Luo nodded: "I saw it."

She had seen Mo Zheng's portrait before, when Wei Cui showed it to her for identification.

"Just as we suspected, the Chief Priest was arrested because the young master's identity was discovered," Peach Blossom continued in a low voice, "Although they may not have found any connection to you yet..."

But now that the Grand Master has been identified, the young master's identity will definitely be exposed. Once the woman's identity is revealed, it will inevitably implicate Yang Luo.

“It’s alright,” Yang Luo said. “The Marquis of Yichun is not qualified to lead troops and cannot obtain military power, so he has to resort to this kind of means to steal the credit for the young prince Cui Mo’s rebellion. But just because he has a grudge against me, no matter what he says, since it involves me, His Majesty will not believe him.”

After saying this, he comforted the peach blossoms.

"Don't worry, I will act carefully, we still have a chance."

Just as Peach Blossom was about to say something, a male voice came from behind her.

"Princess, please wait."

This sound...

Yang Luo froze, and Tao Hua's voice came from beside him.

"Zhu Yunxiao?!"

Yes, that's right, it's Zhu Yunxiao's voice.

She hadn't heard Zhu Yunxiao's voice for a long time.

I haven't dreamed about him in a long time.

Yang Luo slowly turned around and saw a young man standing in the yamen hall. Because it was indoors, his face was somewhat blurry.

He stepped over the threshold, revealing his face to the sunlight. His skin was a bit darker and rougher, but Yang Luo recognized him at a glance.

He bowed to Yang Luo.

"Zhu Yunxiao greets the princess."

……

.......
"Zhu Yunxiao, who let you come back!"

Yang Luo instantly became furious and rushed over angrily.

The peach blossoms followed closely behind.

But as soon as he reached the bottom of the steps, Zhu Yunxiao raised his hand to signal him.

"Princess, please leave your people outside. I wish to speak with you alone."

Yang Luo stopped at the bottom of the steps in the hall, and Tao Hua's expression became even more unfriendly.

"I must protect the princess's safety at all times," she said in a deep voice.

"What I'm about to say also concerns the princess's safety." Zhu Yunxiao didn't look at the guard, only at Yang Luo. "I'm only speaking to Miss Asheng."

That damned thing, Peach Blossom was furious.

Yang Luo wasn't angry anymore: "You stay outside."

Peach Blossom hesitated, "Miss—"

Yang Luo said, "Don't worry, Prince Zhu is a smart man and won't hurt me." After saying that, he stepped up the stairs, passed Zhu Yunxiao, and entered the hall.

Peach Blossom did not follow them in, and the guards remained standing outside.

.......
"It seems you knew that you ran back without permission because you were afraid I would punish you."

Yang Luo stood in the hall, looking at Zhu Yunxiao who followed him in, and said with a sneer.

Zhu Yunxiao didn't reply, but looked her over and sighed, "It's been a long time. Your status has changed, but your clothes and appearance are still as simple as before."

"Because people tend to respect clothes before they respect people," Yang Luo said calmly. "I enjoy seeing the panicked faces of those who disrespect me after they learn my true identity."

After saying that, he also looked Zhu Yunxiao up and down.

Zhu Yunxiao laughed and said, "I have not disrespected you. It has always been Miss Asheng who has been giving me the cold shoulder."

His eyes softened as he finished speaking.

“I know why you always dress simply; it’s because you’re in mourning for your mother.”

Yang Luo could never truly be Yang Luo, nor could she openly wear mourning clothes for her deceased mother. Therefore, since arriving in the capital, her maid, A Sheng, had always dressed simply and plainly.

Even knowing that this person killed him in his past life, and knowing that this person was scheming, Yang Luo was still unintentionally struck by his words and actions. Looking at Zhu Yunxiao, he couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly.

“Young Master Zhu is indeed dedicated to those he wants to treat,” she said, her face darkening again. “But he said he would obey Miss Yang, yet he returned without saying goodbye. What, does he want to question me about deceiving you about your identity?”

“The princess did not deceive me,” Zhu Yunxiao said. “Moreover, whether the princess is a young lady or a maid, I am serving the princess.”

He said and smiled.

“Ah Sheng is a princess, and she treats me even better because she sees and hears my feelings for her.”

Yang Luo sneered. Yes, that's right. For someone like Zhu Yunxiao, what matters is the identity. As for who is behind that identity, it doesn't matter.

“Then why didn’t you arrest Wei Cui over there and make a contribution for me? Why did you run back here?” she said.

Zhu Yunxiao said, "Whether Wei Cui is captured or not, it will not affect your merit, Princess. I have come back to serve you and make another great contribution."

After saying that, he stepped forward, looked at Yang Luo, and said in a low voice.

"The credit for capturing Prince Mo."

Yang Luo felt a chill run down his spine.

It's him!

It was him!

She reached out and suddenly grabbed Zhu Yunxiao's collar.

"you--"

“Princess, the person outside was placed by Prince Mo to be by your side, right?” Zhu Yunxiao took advantage of Yang Luo’s pull to get closer to her and whispered in her ear, “If you want to call her in to kill me, that’s not a good idea, Princess. The Grand Master has been arrested. You should have guessed that His Majesty already knows about this.”

Yang Luo's voice trailed off, her eyes fixed on him fiercely.

Zhu Yunxiao!
It turned out to be him!

……

……

Yang Luo thought it was the Marquis of Yichun.

I never expected that the person behind this was Zhu Yunxiao.

"The Marquis of Yichun?" Zhu Yunxiao said, "He also helped."

He handed him a cup of tea.

After being reminded, Yang Luo indeed did not call anyone in, nor did he curse anymore; he sat down without saying a word.

Zhu Yunxiao wasn't surprised by her reaction; instead, he smiled with appreciation.

She's been like that from the very beginning—fearless, nothing can frighten her.

She's a princess.

Yang Luo did not accept his tea.

Zhu Yunxiao didn't mind; he was used to it. From the very beginning, she wouldn't eat or drink anything in front of him.

She's a princess.

All his temper tantrums proved that Zhu Yunxiao had not misjudged him.

"...It was I who asked Marquis Yichun for help, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to return to the capital so quietly and smoothly and meet His Majesty." He continued, looking at Yang Luo with a smile, "After all, that young prince Mo had placed people in the capital through you, and I couldn't have avoided these spies on my own."

So when the emperor saw Marquis Yichun in the palace, he was actually meeting Zhu Yunxiao.

Therefore, at that time the emperor already knew that her maid, Asheng, was Prince Mo…
The emperor showed no sign of anything amiss.

They didn't arrest her; instead, they chatted and laughed with her as before, letting her leave...

Emperors.

Yang Luo looked at Zhu Yunxiao with a calm expression, showing neither the anger nor the slightest panic from before.

“Go on,” she said. “Let me hear how you came up with this great idea.”

Zhu Yunxiao said, "Actually, I've always had some thoughts, and I always felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't figure it out until I met Wei Cui."

Wei Cui.

Yang Luo thought to herself, "That's right."

Wei Cui had previously shown her this portrait of A Sheng, so naturally she could show it to Zhu Yunxiao as well.

Zhu Yunxiao was able to meet Wei Cui because she sent him to Longxi...

Zhu Yunxiao's voice came to my ears.

"I have to thank you, Princess, because it was through you that I had the opportunity to hear such an interesting idea from Wei Cui."
