King Ning looked troubled.

"Did the king just say something to deceive me?"

Zhao Cuo stared at him intently and said in an aggravated tone.

"Xiao Wang didn't dare to deceive you, but Yan Ni asked Venerable Yongsheng to leave a mark on me to monitor my whereabouts."

The young master listened to his words with a serious face, and was not surprised at all. It was impossible for King Yan not to hold back a hand.

"The king is saying that we can't go back?"

His eyes gradually became fierce and he shouted threats.

"Don't be anxious, my lord. Xiao Wang is not helpless. Yan Ni actually trusts me very much."

Prince Ning retained the last of his dignity and did not show any flattery.

"He will let me go back to Ningguo after the World Heroes Conference."

What he told was the truth. King Yan indeed believed in him, and he did not want to live up to this trust now.

"Is what the king said true? But why did Yan Ni let you go? Can you help me clarify my doubts?"

Zhao Cuo stared at him with questioning eyes.

"At the meeting the day after tomorrow, our seven kings will announce the uprising in front of everyone in the world. At that time, the little king will become the anti-king."

Prince Ning gave a seemingly reasonable explanation. Just when Mr. Zhao was about to speak, he took the lead and continued:

"After the conference, I and my envoys will go to Beijing. As long as it is publicized that I was forced to do so, I can still ascend the throne."

"anything else?"

Zhao Cuo asked noncommittally.

"Lord Messenger, please look at this mark on Xiao Wang's body."

Prince Ning pulled the sleeves of the Yunlong suit to his shoulders in time.

"This mark will disappear after the World Heroes Conference."

He pointed to the "swastika" mark on his arm.

"Your Majesty is willing to admit that I am very happy."

Zhao Cuo believed his words 70%. He originally planned to leave after the World Heroes Conference, so he could wait for two more days.

"I will live in the palace from today on. The Imperial Preceptor will always keep an eye on the king to ensure that he is fine."

He said to Prince Ning with a smile on his face.

"It would be great if the envoy is willing to stay at the young prince's residence."

Prince Ning was relieved to see that he no longer raised any objections.

"It is not appropriate for me to walk around Prince Ning's mansion."

Zhao Cuo glanced around the princess's boudoir.

"I will live in the princess's study."

He pointed to a closed inner door and said.

"Isn't this too aggrieved, Lord Messenger? Xiao Wang can arrange a room for you, it's okay..."

The smile on Prince Ning's face suddenly became more forced.

He thought of the scene just now again.

Even a man can't bear the thought of a man other than himself living in the same room with his legitimate wife, let alone that he has never experienced such treatment.

"Didn't what I just said convey my meaning to the king?"

Zhao Cuo narrowed his eyes dangerously.

"I dare not disobey the envoy..."

Prince Ning's fists hidden under his sleeves were clenched and trembling.

"That's all."

Zhao Cuo suddenly shook his head.

"Your Majesty, please go to the study and rest. I will meditate in the princess's bedroom all night and will leave tomorrow morning."

When Prince Ning heard this, the veins on his forehead suddenly popped out!

What a shame this is for men?

He will take revenge!

"Everything is according to what the envoy said..."

Prince Ning forced a smile and nodded in agreement.

Princess Ning, who was hiding under the quilt on the bed, suddenly looked disappointed.

Prince Ning's agreement to this request was tantamount to handing her over to others, but he didn't even offer a word of resistance.

"It's getting late. Your Majesty, please go to the study to rest. Mr. Pang, you are responsible for protecting His Highness Prince Ning."

"I obey my orders."

After Pang Er raised his hand to signal, he walked slowly to Prince Ning and leaned forward to make a "please" gesture.

Before leaving, Prince Ning saluted Zhao Cuo with a smile on his face. Finally, he casually glanced at the bulging quilt on the bed, turned around and walked towards the study room with a heart wrenching in his heart.

"Master Messenger, do you have anything to say to me?"

After Prince Ning left, the princess poked her rosy face out of the quilt and looked at the burly man with dark eyes.

Zhao Cuo blinked and turned to look at her. He didn't see fear in her clear and bright eyes, and for a moment he showed a surprised smile.

"Why did the princess say this?"

"Master Messenger, you won't stay here to bully me, a weak woman, right?"

She forced out a sad and beautiful smile, and her charming appearance dazzled Mr. Zhao. Fortunately, he felt that the Queen Mother was even more beautiful.

"Thank you for your trust, Princess."

Zhao Cuo smiled and nodded gently.

"I do need help from the princess."

As he spoke, he walked to the stand beside him and took down a thin coat.

"Princess, please put on some clothes first."

"Thank you..."

Princess Ning's pretty face was slightly red. She had been suffocating in the quilt for so long that her nightgown was soaked with sweat.

After the young father-in-law handed her the clothes, he turned around gracefully and avoided it. He didn't bother to take advantage of it.

Moreover, Master Chu seemed a little unhappy.

"I'm rude to you."

After a while, Princess Ning's soft voice sounded again.

"A certain family just offended the princess a lot, and I hope you can forgive me. I have absolutely no evil intentions."

Zhao Cuo looked at the princess who had already put on her coat and said softly.

"If you have anything you want me to do, just tell me."

Princess Ning lowered her gaze and whispered.

"My king has to go to Beijing now..."

"I am still worried. His Highness Prince Ning seems to have other ideas, so I would like to ask the princess to persuade him."

"I'm afraid he won't listen to me anymore."

Princess Ning shook her head gently and said.

"He will definitely do it."

Zhao Cuo said with a warm smile.

"The princess told him that I was going to kill him and let His Highness Chu Zhi succeed to the throne of Ning first and then ascend to the throne of emperor."

"Lord Messenger..."

Princess Ning's face changed slightly and her mouth opened.

"Of course I won't do this. I just want him to feel at ease. Princess understands that, right?"

Zhao Cuo blinked at her.

"I am naturally willing to serve you."

Princess Ning secretly sighed in relief and nodded.
