Chapter 233: Chapter 233 Is Tang Ze Really That Person

"Ruolan, the fault is not yours,"

Chu Baihan said seriously.

"How is your health? Have you been mistreated in the Qin Garden?" she continued with worry.

"Princess, I’m fine. Xiang Zhang planned to use me to threaten you, so he did not intend to kill me. I just tried to escape several times and when they caught me, they beat me," Ruolan said, shaking her head with red eyes.

"Princess, did I bring you trouble?"

"No," Chu Baihan quickly embraced Ruolan, choking up as she spoke.

Ruolan and Nan Xing had both suffered with her; there was no question of who had brought trouble to whom.

"Your Highness, the emperor has sent us to inform you that Xiang Zhang did not survive the one hundred lashes; he is dead."

Just then, the Imperial Army hurried over and solemnly reported this matter to Chu Baihan.

Chu Baihan let out a breath...

That beast is finally dead and won’t harm anyone ever again.

"Xiang An and Xiang Zhang are both dead, they can’t do evil anymore," Chu Baihan said, softly caressing Ruolan’s head as she spoke in a relaxed tone.

"That’s great, Ruolan’s vengeance is also fulfilled," Nan Xing nodded excitedly.

"No, the revenge is not complete yet, there’s still the Qin Garden, isn’t there?" Chu Baihan spoke in a cold voice.

"Princess, do you intend to take action against the Qin Garden? But that belongs to Prince Xu..."

"After today’s setback, Prince Xu doesn’t dare to act rashly for a while. It’s time to eradicate the Qin Garden," Chu Baihan’s eyes grew cold, her tone icy.

"By the way, have you seen the Pavilion Master Tang?"

Thinking of Tang Ze, Chu Baihan’s heart fluttered slightly as she anxiously asked.

"When we came to find you, we saw Pavilion Master Tang riding a horse with Tang Yu, leaving together," Wuji quickly replied.

Chu Baihan’s face instantly darkened.

She was very worried.

He was still injured, and yet he was gallivanting around on a horse; did he have a death wish?

"Do you know where he has gone?" Chu Baihan asked, her voice tired.

"Reporting back to the Princess, they left too quickly, and I do not know where they went,"

Wuji shook his head.

Chu Baihan sighed lightly and then changed the subject.

"Nan Xing, Hu Yi is still in the palace, go and bring her out, find a place for her, it’s best if she can be sent out of the capital city. After all, staying here, the Empress Dowager and Prince Xu might not let her off," Chu Baihan instructed seriously.

Hu Yi was also a person of misfortune; helping her a little was the least she could do.

"Yes, Princess."

"For the rest, let’s return to the Princess Residence now."

...

When Chu Baihan returned to the Princess Residence, the two little ones were in the study room reading books.

Upon hearing movement, they immediately ran out.

"Mother," they called out in unison obediently.

Chu Baihan immediately felt as if all her fatigue had evaporated as she tenderly responded, "Mhm, mother is here."

"Mother, what’s wrong?" Chu Junxi was also very sensitive, spotting the tears on Chu Baihan’s clothes and the faint traces of blood on her face, his heart instantly filled with concern.

"I suffered a bit catching Xiang Zhang, but it’s all right now," Chu Baihan reassured him with a smile.

"Mother, please don’t do such dangerous things anymore," Yan Jingjing said, her eyes red with worry.

"Alright, alright, mother will surely take better care of herself in the future."

Fearing they would worry, Chu Baihan quickly reassured them.

"We’re here." Just at that moment, a voice came from behind Chu Baihan—it was Yan Lian’s.

He had already returned to the Princess Residence with Jian Yun ahead of time.

Chu Baihan turned around to see Yan Lian, looking pleased with himself.

It seemed, having dealt with Xiang An and Xiang Zhang, those two beasts, made him quite happy.

"Yan Lian, I owe you my thanks for today at the Imperial Palace. If it hadn’t been for you, Hu Yi might have become an unjustly slain ghost." Chu Baihan sincerely thanked Yan Lian.

Yan Lian felt somewhat embarrassed.

He coughed lightly and quickly pointed at Jian Yun, saying, "It wasn’t just my doing. Jian Yun was also confronting that old witch, the Empress Dowager."

As he spoke, he suddenly realized that referring to the "old witch" might be a bit disrespectful to the Empress Dowager, who was, after all, Chu Baihan’s royal grandmother.

"That is, by ’old witch,’ I meant..."

"You needn’t be nervous, we have no affection towards the Empress Dowager," Chu Baihan spoke in a calm voice.

What else could she be if not an old witch, given her mischief?

Upon hearing this, Yan Lian finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Princess, the Death Soldiers who were pursuing you have been captured. They confessed to forcing you and Master Tang to jump off the cliff. How are you now?" Jian Yun looked at Chu Baihan with concern.

"What? Mother, you fell off a cliff?" The hearts of the two little ones were in their throats again.

"You all needn’t worry. Tang Ze was protecting me, so I wasn’t hurt. It was he who was injured..." said Chu Baihan, shaking her head with a complex tone in her voice.

Yet now, that seriously injured person had run off somewhere unknown.

"Was it Master Tang who saved you, Mother? Is he severely injured?" Yan Jingjing’s voice began to choke up.

Chu Baihan knew Jingjing didn’t like Tang Ze, so she leaned over and patiently said, "Yes, in order to save me, his arm was covered in blood. I suspect he sustained very severe injuries. If it weren’t for him, I might have died under that cliff."

Upon hearing this, Yan Jingjing’s eyes reddened even more.

"Then, where is he now?" she asked with worry.

A child’s love and hate can change extremely quickly; once they know someone is good, they would naturally like them.

"His condition should be okay, I guess," Chu Baihan said in a muffled voice.

She also wanted to know Tang Ze’s current condition.

"Mother, let’s find him quickly; I won’t hold any grudges against him anymore. He’s a good person," Yan Jingjing pleaded with a tearful voice.

"Alright. Jingjing, don’t cry. Master Tang has never had any ill intentions towards us; it’s good enough that you realize this," Chu Baihan said sternly.

Yan Jingjing was a clever child; she understood immediately.

She sniffled and, with her eyes still very red, earnestly said, "Jingjing understands. Jingjing will like Master Tang from now on too."

"Well, this prince will come to like Tang Ze too!"

At that moment, a certain Prince Lian raised his paw and earnestly promised.

Chu Baihan: "..."

Jian Yun: "..."

The rest: "..."

Their gaze at Yan Lian was indescribably odd.

Realizing his phrasing might have been inappropriate, Yan Lian quickly corrected himself, "What I mean is, he is a man of integrity, and from now on, this prince will respect him and no longer target him."

You’re aware that it was wrong of you to have targeted him deliberately?

Chu Baihan nodded, her expression one of gratitude.

It was indeed best for Yan Lian to smooth things over with Tang Ze, especially since Tang Ze might very well be... that person.
