Laughing, the host always wants to escape

Chapter 107 The Regent Has a Beautiful Girl in His Golden House (14)

Watching his back gradually disappear, a figure walked out from the darkness behind him. Rong Cuo stood respectfully behind Mu Hanqing, "Your Highness, how should we deal with this man? Should we kill him directly or..."

"Don't touch him first, Rongcuo. Do you know how big a blow it is for a person to go from hope to despair?" Mu Hanqing's eyes were deep and there was a hint of smile at the corners of his eyes, as if he had found some interesting toy.

"He can die, but he can't die so easily, otherwise it would be very boring."

"I understand." Rongcuo nodded slightly.

"Go back, I want to walk alone." Mu Hanqing waved his hand, signaling him to retreat, and then walked into the darkness alone.

"Yes."

Mu Hanqing came to the ancestral hall behind the palace, looked at his mother's tablet on the high platform, knelt down on the cattail mat, then lit a stick of incense, bowed three times, and inserted it into the incense burner.

Then he stood up and left silently without saying anything.

Tangcuo returned to his room and lay on the bed, thinking about what had just happened. His heart was beating fast. "Xiaoye, he brought me to the prison for no reason. What did he want to do?"

[I guess they are suspicious of your identity and are warning you, but this is just my personal guess and has nothing to do with the plot.]

"His appearance is very different from his personality shown in front of others. He doesn't look like a violent and murderous person." Tang Cuo pursed his lips and said, "Forget it. Let me take a look. There's no rush."

It was late at night and everyone was asleep. Tang Cuo seemed to have entered a dream. In the dream, he kept running and a group of people with knives were chasing him from behind. Just when they were about to touch him, Tang Cuo suddenly woke up.

He raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his head, then got up, dressed, and washed up. "I feel like I did some difficult moves all night last night, so why am I so sore all over?"

"Mr. Tang, are you up? It's time for dinner." Taohong outside the house raised her hand and knocked on the door.

"Get up."

Hearing his response, Taohong brought the meal into the house and placed it on the table beside her.

"Sister Taohong, where is His Royal Highness Prince Rong'an? Doesn't he need to eat?"

"Your Highness has already used it. Your Highness is in the high position of Regent and is quite busy with affairs."

"Oh, I see. So what should I do today?" Tang Cuo asked.

"The prince has instructed that you can walk anywhere except leaving the mansion." Taohong smiled at him, then quietly left the room.

After breakfast, Tang Cuo stood up, stretched, opened the door and walked outside.

The sky was clear and birds were singing. It was a nice day. Tangcuo walked forward while carefully observing his surroundings.

Suddenly, he heard a loud noise. He turned around and walked towards the source of the sound.

Passing through a pavilion, Tangcuo saw the scene in front of him: a little girl was kneeling on the ground, with two guards holding her shoulders tightly.

The girl's eyes were filled with tears, but she remained strong and silent.

"You little wild girl, you dare to bump into our Miss Guan. I'll teach you a lesson today." As she said that, she picked up the rattan stick in her hand and whipped the girl on the back.

The girl closed her eyes tightly. The expected pain did not seem to hit her body. She looked up in confusion.

Looking at the man who suddenly appeared in front of her, the girl couldn't help but shudder.

Seeing that her actions were interrupted, the woman frowned unhappily and stared at Tang Cuo, "Who are you? Why are you in Rong'an Palace?"

"I'm just passing by. It would be bad if so many of you bullied a child, right?" Tang Cuo pursed his lips.

"Passing by? Can you enter and leave the Rong'an Palace as you please? You are clearly an assassin, why don't you send someone to arrest him?" The woman looked at Tang Cuo arrogantly.

"Wait..." Before anyone could react, a voice suddenly came from behind.

Immediately afterwards, Tao Hong's figure appeared in front of them.

Seeing the person coming, the woman couldn't help but frowned, then put on a flattering smile, "Sister Taohong, why are you here? Does the prince have any instructions?"

"Qingdai, this is a guest brought back by the prince himself. You cannot be presumptuous." Taohong's face was serious. Then she turned her head and asked patiently, "Mr. Tang, I'm sorry to have frightened you."

"It's nothing. I just walked here out of boredom, and saw a few big guys ganging up to bully a little girl. I'm being nosy." Tang Cuo smiled at her.

Hearing his words, Tao Hong looked at the people beside her, "What's going on? Why don't you let him go?"

Several people hurriedly released their hands that were holding the little girl and stood aside straight.

"Sister Taohong, don't be fooled. This little girl sneaked into the kitchen and stole the food we prepared for Miss Guan to nourish her body. Miss Guan asked us to teach her a lesson. We, as servants, can't do anything about it, don't you think?" Qingdai's eyes showed a hint of smile, and her tone seemed to carry contempt.

Miss Guan?

Tangcuo captured the key points of the conversation between the two.

Sure enough, after mentioning this person again, Tao Hong's face became visibly ugly, "In that case, why don't you find someone to make another one for Miss Guan? Mo Yan has made her wait anxiously."

"I will naturally give the order, but it has to wait until I've taught this little girl a lesson..." After saying that, Qingdai waved her hand, and the people around her stepped forward again and surrounded the little girl.

"No... Big brother, help me..." The little girl hugged Tang Cuo's thigh directly, looking pitiful.

"Why? Sister Taohong and the guests are going to stay here and watch the show?"

Hearing her words, Tao Hong turned around and whispered to Tang Cuo, "Mr. Tang, let's leave here. It's better for us not to interfere in the affairs here."

"Then this little girl..." Tang Cuo pursed his lips, thought for a while, and then sighed: Forget it, I shouldn't have meddled in other people's business.

"Big brother..." The little girl's eyes turned red, which made people's hearts soften unconsciously.

"Well... although this is your family's own affair, I am an outsider and should not interfere. But now that things have come to this, there is no point in beating her. Why not give her a lecture?" Tang Cuo asked tentatively.

"Qingdai, I asked you to take care of something, why are you taking you so long?" Before Qingdai could reply, an impatient voice came from behind her.

Qingdai quickly turned around and bowed, "Miss Guan, why did you come out? It's windy outside, please be careful."

Guan Shang looked at the people standing in front of her and curled the corners of her lips, "I was wondering why it took so long, it turns out someone was stuck." After that, she shifted her gaze to Tang Cuo standing aside.

"This young man looks unfamiliar to me? What should I call him?" She raised her voice, as if she didn't take Tang Cuo seriously at all.
