Chapter 280 The Snow Lotus Was Stolen by the Emperor

At this moment, Su Liluo, who was standing to the side, felt extremely pleased when she saw Xiao Wang's angry expression.

However, she absolutely could not allow King Xiao to wrong her husband.

"Maybe you're just bored? Go ahead and report it to the authorities if you dare. My husband didn't steal anything, that's all. You can go and report it to the authorities to investigate!"

Su Liluo raised her chin and looked arrogantly at Xiao Wangdao.

"Report to the authorities? You, you all did this on purpose!"

King Xiao was so angry that he could hardly breathe. He paced back and forth in the hall, as if this could release his anger.

How did he end up reporting it to the authorities?

This gold is something I've been hiding. If I report it to the authorities and they investigate, won't everything be exposed?

He felt that Xiao Ye and his gang must have been afraid to report him to the authorities, which was why they dared to steal from him.

This is like swallowing a bitter pill without being able to speak!

"Anyway, we have a clear conscience. Whether or not to report it to the authorities is entirely up to you, Prince Xiao. However, if the authorities find out that we stole your gold, then we will turn around and sue you for false accusation!"

Su Liluo said casually.

That nonchalant attitude made King Xiao so angry he wanted to vomit blood.

He was the one who lost the gold, yet they turned around and accused him of it.

The way Xiao Wang looked at Su Liluo was as if he wished he could tear her to pieces.

“Prince Xiao, if you have nothing else to do, please leave. My residence is not a place for you to go crazy.”

Sensing the hostile aura emanating from Xiao Wang, Xiao Ye's expression turned cold, and he leaped forward to block Xiao Wang's view.

"Fine, this time I've been tricked by you. Crown Prince, you're unjust. Don't blame me for being ruthless one day."

King Xiao gritted his teeth and said.

He dared not report to the authorities; he came here today purely out of anger.

This time, I can only accept that I've been wronged and suffered a loss in silence.

He will definitely get his revenge someday.

"Hmph, incompetent rage!"

Su Liluo watched Xiao Wang's angry departure and gave a cheerful snort.

This time, she and Xiao Ye really made a fortune.

After Xiao Wang left, they thought about what they had seen from the Regent yesterday, and Su Liluo decided to return to the Su residence.

She wanted to ask Su Zhen herself if her mother really knew the Regent.

*

"Luo'er, why do you ask such a question?"

The Su residence.

Su Liluo called Su Zhen to a room alone. When Su Zhen heard Su Liluo ask Jiang Ruan if she knew the Regent of the Northern Desert, his heart trembled inexplicably.

A hint of tension lingered between his brows.

"Father, just tell me whether Mother knows the Regent or not, and whether she has been to the Northern Desert?"

Su Lilu noticed that Su Zhen was acting strangely, and stared at her relentlessly, asking questions.

"No, your mother has never been to the Northern Desert and doesn't know any regent, so don't overthink it."

Su Zhen glanced away and firmly denied it.

"You really don't recognize me?"

"Dad didn't lie to you."

"Then why does the Regent know my mother?"

Did he tell you?

Suddenly, Su Zhen looked at Su Liluo nervously and asked.

He carefully examined Su Liluo's eyebrows, eyes, and face.

This face is extremely beautiful, like Ruan Ruan, and doesn't resemble that person at all.

He probably wouldn't have thought of this, but...

"The Regent has seen you?"

Su Zhen suddenly remembered something, and the tension on his face became even more obvious.

Luo'er looks so much like Jiang Ruan, if the Regent were to see her, he would inevitably think of Jiang Ruan.

Su Liluo took in Su Zhen's tense and changing expression. She felt that Su Zhen was acting strangely today, as if he was afraid of her contact with the Regent.

"Father, the Regent is trying every means to separate me from the Crown Prince and wants his own daughter to marry the Crown Prince. Isn't it normal for me to have met him?"

"You must never see the Regent again. He's not a good person, understand?"

Su Zhen looked at Su Liluo seriously and gave her instructions.

This was the most serious he had ever spoken to Su Liluo in a long time.

"Why? Father, did you know the Regent in the past?"

Su Liluo increasingly felt that Su Zhen's attitude was abnormal, as if he had a great deal of resentment towards the Regent.

"Your father used to guard the border and fought against the Northern Desert, so he naturally recognizes this Regent of the Northern Desert. Besides, he wants to separate you and the Crown Prince this time. Is he really a good person?"

this......

That seems to make some sense.

Hearing Su Zhen say this, Su Liluo's doubts subsided somewhat.

She didn't tell Su Zhen what she had overheard—that the Regent said her mother had fathered another son with him—after all, her mother was already...

She had already left; she didn't want her father to become estranged from her mother any longer.

Forget it, let's just let her and Xiao Ye keep this to themselves.

So Su Liluo didn't come over to ask any more questions. After staying at the Su residence for a while, she went back first.

On the other side.

Gao Yufei naturally learned about her father Gao Changhong's lost Snow Lotus, and she helped search for it for a long time without success.

"Even if you have to search the entire capital of the Great Liang Dynasty, you must find this Snow Lotus, understand? If you can't find it, you don't need to come back to see this princess!"

Gao Yufei sat in the chair with a serious expression, giving instructions to the team of guards she had summoned.

At this time, she was unaware of Emperor Wenjian's thoughts and thought she could still use the Snow Lotus to sway him into divorcing the Crown Prince and Crown Princess.

But at that moment, Gao Changhong walked over from the side.

"Forget it, this Snow Lotus was probably stolen by Emperor Wenjian's men! Now that it's on their territory, it's probably as difficult as climbing to heaven for us to get it back."
