After I died, the scumbag prince cried down the city wall

Chapter 292 Asking for trouble

Cui Rong's heart suddenly sank, and she began to worry secretly. She thought that after what happened today, she might not be able to escape punishment again...

"Cui Rongrong, you don't look well, what's wrong?"

Chen Qinghan noticed Cui Rong's strange expression and couldn't help but ask with concern.

Cui Rong was stunned for a moment, and forced a smile to hide her inner panic, saying: "It's okay, thank you for your concern, Princess."

Chen Qinghan patted her hand soothingly and said gently, "Don't take this kind of groundless talk too seriously. I believe no one will mention it again after tonight."

Having said that, who can be sure that Song Yanyi will really let bygones be bygones?

After all, he cared so much about Lin Han that he even remembered the old incident that happened in a remote border town a few years ago so clearly and was annoyed by it...

Now that the past between them has been exposed in public, how could they easily let it go?

When the dinner was finally coming to an end, King Xuan was already slightly tipsy and was very excited to personally see Song Yanyi off. As he left, he was still complaining non-stop:

"Alas, when will the emperor make up his mind to choose a suitable successor to take over the affairs of the world? Looking at the entire court, who else besides me can take on this important task? The issue of establishing a crown prince should have been put on the agenda long ago, but there is still no result!"

In response, Song Yanyi said calmly, "Your Highness, don't worry too much. The King of Jin has fallen, and there is no one in the court who can be a strong opponent to threaten his position. Now you just need to wait patiently."

After hearing this, King Xuan seemed to be relieved and reassured!

When following King Xuan's footsteps out of the magnificent and majestic imperial palace that was as splendid as a fairyland, I inadvertently glanced at Su Yan who was standing not far away on the left. What kind of complicated mood was hidden under his slightly indifferent and cold expression?

How many secret stories are hidden in this character who has been working beside Song Yanyi for many years, loyally and conscientiously, never saying much or asking many questions, but just silently carrying out various orders and tasks. He can be regarded as his most important right-hand man.

"Okay then we'll say goodbye here, bye everyone, take care!"

Song Yanyi finally decided to get up and say goodbye, ending this dinner trip and preparing to leave the palace and return home to rest.

Cui Rong then turned around and said goodbye to Chen Qinghan and left first.

The princess smiled, nodded, and said "good" as a response to the guest's greeting, expressing her friendly wishes.

Then Su Yan performed a solemn and standard bow according to the etiquette of ancient noble families to express his respect, then jumped onto the horse's back, skillfully controlled the horse, and drove away gracefully. His figure gradually disappeared into the vast night, leaving only a few twinkling stars to accompany the lonely night travelers, illuminating the long, rough, rugged and difficult road ahead, leading everyone to bravely and firmly embark on their own destiny...

Then follow Song Yanyi's steps and get on the gorgeously decorated, exquisitely made, sturdy and durable car. The cabin is spacious and comfortable, the four-wheel drive is stable and reliable, and there is almost no noticeable bumps and shakes while driving, allowing people to fully relax and enjoy the beautiful journey without being disturbed, immersed in the quiet atmosphere, and temporarily forget the troubles, worries, sorrows, pains, struggles and other negative emotional factors in the world.

After sitting down, Cui Rongrong was still uneasy. She stared at the changes in the silent man's face in front of her, carefully trying to guess what the other party's next reaction would be, his behavior, approach, attitude and position. Would he still be tolerant, understanding, forgiving, sympathetic and inclusive towards her?

The fingers were tightly clenched together, and due to excessive force, the joints turned white and were almost numb and insensitive due to lack of blood supply...

The car was quiet, with only the occasional sound of wheels rubbing against the ground and the cries of nocturnal animals in the distance breaking the silence of the night, adding a bit of mystery to the darkness and making people imagine...

Suddenly, Song Yanyi turned his head to look over here, his eyes as deep as the abyss, attracting people's attention but full of danger, locked onto him like a cheetah catching its prey, with the concentration and undivided attention. He had nowhere to hide and could not escape, so he could only face him head-on and wait for the judgment and accept the fate...

At that moment, Cui Rongrong felt that it was difficult to breathe. Her chest seemed to be tightly bound by invisible hands, and she almost couldn't breathe. The muscles all over her body were stiff, her scalp was numb, and she was shivering all over. She felt like she was falling into an ice cellar and in a cold pond. The bone-piercing coldness invaded her limbs, bones, meridians, every strand of skin, and every strand of hair was frozen stiff...

.

However, just when she thought she was about to be scolded and criticized like a storm,

Unexpectedly, what he got was a cold and flat question: "Why didn't you eat just now?"

Cui Rong was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise and confusion: "You...what did you say?"

He neither lost his temper with her nor directly questioned her about Lin Han.

There seemed to be a thin layer of ice in his eyes, freezing all the anger and doubts.

His hands twisted unconsciously in front of her, his fingertips looking pale from the effort: "Yeah."

The word was squeezed out from between clenched teeth with an imperceptible tremor.

"Let's go back and eat something."

The sound of his voice when he said this sounded like it came from a bottomless cold pond, without any warmth or concern in his voice.

She looked up at him, trying to read a clue.

The person in front of me, a young master who grew up in a honey pot, when did he become so good at concealing his emotions?

Those eyes, which were usually as gentle as spring water, seemed to be able to freeze all life at this moment.

Noticing his gaze, her heart tightened and she quickly looked away, not daring to stay any longer for fear that he would see something.

"Does anything look wrong?"

Her voice was as light as a summer breeze and fleeting.

"It's okay..." He answered almost subconsciously, then lowered his head.

Since the other party didn't want to mention that matter, she naturally wouldn't touch on this sensitive topic and ask for trouble.

I lifted a corner of the curtain just to get some fresh air, but unexpectedly I caught a glimpse of Su Yan riding away on horseback.

The words he said to himself when they first met today immediately came back to his mind: "Strange, I didn't expect you to choose to travel in a carriage."

It turns out that this young man is not a person who likes to go out by sedan chair or car?

Suddenly I felt a slight chill on my back, and when I turned around I found that he was looking at me sideways at some point.

"So interested?"

There seemed to be a hint of inquiry in his tone.

Cui Rongrong quickly lowered the curtains again and tried to divert the other party's attention with a new topic: "I'm a little curious. You mentioned before that Lord Su had encountered a great difficulty. What happened?"
