Chapter 5 Who will come to peace talks?
The third prince and Su Jingping were being held in the dark and damp woodshed. When Lu Manman arrived, they were still awake.

Lu Manman gave a look, and the men who were assigned to follow Lu Manman immediately understood and poured a basin full of cold water on them.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk—”

The night in the cottage is extremely cold. The water is cold enough tonight. I think I was woken up by it in the first place!

"You! What are you going to do!!!"

The first one to wake up was Su Jingran, who was stunned by fright. Su Jingran finally woke up. When he opened his eyes, he saw the horrifying ghost mask again, and he immediately shrank back in fear.

Look at the third prince Xie Si who is also tied up next to him. The top of his head is still bleeding.

"Third Prince! Third Prince! Wake up! Wake up—"

Su Jingran was trembling so much that she could hardly speak.

I saw the ghost mask, stepped forward, leaned over, and looked at Su Jingping. His eyes were wandering, scanning up and down, and he looked at it with evil intentions.

"The most beautiful woman in the capital, she truly deserves her reputation!"

The little white rabbit with a slim figure, a fair and silky face, and a frightened face looks pitiful and touching.

"No no! I'm not!"

Su Jingran shook his head crazily and wanted to hide away in fear, but his hands and feet were tied and his body was controlled, making it impossible to hide!

Perhaps the icy cold water stimulated the skin, or maybe Su Jingran's frightened scream woke up Xie Si, who had been in a coma.

Seeing that the ghost mask had evil intentions towards Suning, Xie Si immediately shouted.

"Come to me if you have any problems, bullying a weak woman is nothing!"

Lu Manman's eyes lit up, what he was waiting for was Xie Si's words!
He tilted his head and looked sideways, the same eyes were wandering, sweeping up and down, and he suddenly laughed out loud.

"Come on! Tie these third princes to my room, and I'll train them tonight!"

Lu Manman waved his hand, and someone came forward and picked up Xie Si who was lying on the ground. Xie Si, Xie Si, but you said it yourself that something happened to you!

"You! What are you going to do?"

As soon as Lu Manman opened his mouth, Xie Si realized something was wrong. This ghost mask was actually a woman! A woman with a high status in the village!

"What do you say?"

Lu Manman slowly got up from Su Jingran and raised Xie Si's chin with one hand with a smirk.

Under the ghost mask was a pair of cunning and smart eyes, and Xie Si actually saw an expression in them that frightened him.

"Carry it away!!!"

Lu Manman clapped his hands nonchalantly and watched with satisfaction as Xie Si was pushed down.

Although, Lu Manman didn't know where his room was, but looking at the minions' cooperation, Yan Dongze must have given his acquiescence.

Who made her become their scapegoat now?
Lu Manman followed them, ignoring Su Jingran who was still crying. Su Jingran cried to death and couldn't figure out why it was Xie Si who was taken away!

Lu Manman came to the room that Yan Dongze had prepared for her and walked around it. The furnishings in this room were not bad. It seemed that it should be the original room of the head of the house.

Xie Si was ruthlessly thrown onto the bed and struggled to escape.

"Third Prince, I have two cups of tea here. Which one do you want to drink?"

Lu Manman poured two cups of tea for Xie Si, and sat on the edge of the bed evilly, looking coldly at Xie Si who could not move.

"This cup is Spring Joy, this cup is Heartbroken Soul. Third Prince, which cup do you want?"

"Is it this? Or this?"

Lu Manman deliberately dangled in front of Xie Si with a creepy smile, as if there was something really wrong with the two cups of tea.

"I guarantee that if the third prince drinks this spring joy, he won't be able to get up until tomorrow night! Why don't we try it tonight?"

With that said, Lu Manman slowly lay down on Xie Si, pretending to feed him.

"No, no! I want another cup!" The good hero who once saved the beauty has now become a prisoner. Maybe it will be even worse later, and she will directly become the wife of Yazhai!

He was detained here alive by bandits.

"That's what you said!"

Lu Manman didn't wait for Xie Si's reaction, grabbed his chin and drank it directly.

You have to do a good job in acting, otherwise how can you scare our third prince!

"Heartbroken Soul, if there is no antidote in three days, Third Prince, just wait to die!"

Lu Manman turned over and threw the tea cup, picked up a piece of the fragment, and made fake gestures on the third prince.

"Tell me, how much is the life of the third prince worth? Three hundred taels? Or five hundred taels?"

The third prince was captured alive just to have leverage when negotiating with the court!

But who will the court send?
"You want to use me to negotiate with the imperial court? Dreaming! I tell you, within three days the emperor will definitely send troops to wipe out you all!"

Even if Xie Si drank the so-called heartbroken soul, he was still not afraid. As long as the court sent people, he didn't believe that the people in Taiyuan Hospital would be helpless!
"Really?"

Seeing that Xie Si was still so arrogant, Lu Manman gritted his teeth, took the pieces of the teacup and scratched Xie Si's body.

The force on the hand was not heavy, and the wounds were short and shallow, not fatal at all. But as the cuts were made one by one, the stinging and sour feeling was almost life-threatening!

"How much do you think you are worth? After all, he is a prince and five hundred taels of gold should be enough! Plus a little princess..."

"No! The princess is so beautiful, so she should be taken care of by her brothers, don't you think so? Third Prince?"

Su Jingran is definitely Xie Si's weakness. Xie Si is tough, but Su Jingran is different!

If something really happened to Su Jingping, Xie Si would probably go crazy!
"What exactly do you want to do?"

Xie Si looked at Lu Manman in horror. The wounds on his body were tiny and numb.

Lu Manman kept pointing at Xie Si's face with the fragments, raised his eyebrows and said, "Guess!".

"Don't touch her!"

Su Jingran has been Xie Si's favorite for three years, not only because of Su Jingran's identity, but also because Su Jingran is so beautiful, she is truly the most beautiful woman in the capital!

If it was ruined here because of himself, Xie Si would never forgive himself.

"You think, who will come to negotiate?"

Lu Manman saw that the atmosphere was almost heightened, so she stopped talking nonsense to Xie Si and directly asked what she wanted to ask.

Only by understanding the current complex situation in the court can she better get out of trouble. She doesn't want to be the boss!
"I...I think...it should be Su Chenxu, the crown prince of King Anxian!"

Su Chenxu, Su Jingping's brother, was the only person in the court who did not take sides.

King Anxian died in battle in his early years, leaving behind a son and a daughter. Su Chenxu, the prince of Anxian, had his own faction in the court. No one, whether it was the prince Xie Qian or the third prince Xie Si, could successfully win over him, so The emperor also valued him very much.

This time, Xie Si wanted to make a meritorious deed and successfully seize military power by suppressing bandits, but he didn't expect that he would fall on the head of a woman.

Peace talks and recruitment, if the prince Xie Qian comes here, the matter will definitely be settled, but the third prince may not be brought back!

Therefore, looking at the entire court, only Su Chenxu can take charge of this matter.

Who knows, just yesterday, the Prince's faction had successfully won over the Minister of Rites!

Lu Haonan, the son of the Taifu, is in charge of the Ministry of Works, and yesterday he married Chen Xue, the daughter of the Ministry of Rites.

If not for the fact that both the Gong Li Department and the Li Department were on the side of the prince, the third prince would not be so anxious to suppress the bandits and perform meritorious service!

"Su Chenxu?"

Lu Manman lowered her head and thought deeply. In the memory of the original owner, Su Chenxu had often heard Su Jingran brag about what her brother was. He was a gentleman as gentle as jade and was unparalleled in the world! The most beautiful and handsome guy in the world!

"Is he handsome?"
