I just want to live a good life

Chapter 204 There is only one position for the Crown Princess

Mu Yunting thought that he was the only person Su Nuan had given sugar figures to, but he didn't expect that she gave all the sugar figures to others as soon as they returned to the inn. Even Leng Yue, whom she looked down upon, received a delicate little fox.

He felt like a fool holding up the quick candy.

When he was about to throw the candy away, Su Nuan suddenly came over and took a bite of his candy man.

The beautiful four-clawed dragon lost one of its claws in an instant.

"Why did you eat the dragon claw?"

"Then where to eat?"

After Su Nuan asked a soul-searching question, she came up and took another bite, and this time the dragon horn was gone.

"Did you buy it just to eat it?"

"Of course, it's crunchy and sweet and delicious. If you don't believe me, try it."

While Mu Yunting was hesitating, he saw Su Nuan's mouth moving closer again, and he quickly bit off the dragon's head.

"That's right, sugar has to have a place to go."

The two of them ate the candy man, taking turns to eat it, oblivious to the people around them.

The guard holding the candy man beside him silently put the candy man assigned to him into his mouth.

Only Liefeng couldn't bear to eat it. His was a little rabbit, so cute that he really couldn't eat it.

It was the first time that the innkeeper saw a group of adults sitting around in his inn, each holding a candy figure and eating them happily.

However, there were only two people in the group who held the candy figures and did not eat them. One was a beautiful woman who frowned with a look of disgust, while the other silly boy kept laughing at the candy figure in his hand.

The boss thought there was no need to ask, the frowning woman was the most normal one in the group.

Then he saw the normal woman in his eyes walk up to the fool and say something sadly, and then the candy man in the fool's hand was replaced by the woman.

Later, the normal woman also joined the army of people eating candy men, and even the fool regained some of his normal state and took a vicious bite of the candy man in his hand.

That night, Su Nuan impressed the innkeeper with thirteen sugar figures.

"Sir, can I ride a horse tomorrow, too?"

Su Nuan had just stuffed her mouth with the dragon's tail when she heard Leng Yue say this to Mu Yunting.

She was sure that the woman said this at the perfect time, and she knew that she would be speechless at the moment and would have no way to refuse her.

"Can you ride a horse?"

Mu Yunting did not disappoint Su Nuan and asked the question she wanted to ask.

"I can ride. A benefactor took me riding before."

"Since you can ride a horse, I'll have someone buy you a horse tomorrow. This will also increase our speed."

Su Nuan finally chewed the dragon's tail into pieces and was able to open her mouth. "Did you want to talk about riding at noon?"

Leng Yue nodded in acknowledgment.

Su Nuan curled her lips. I thought she was planning something big, but it turned out she just wanted to ride a horse.

Having achieved her goal, Leng Yue returned to her room happily.

Silent all night.

Before setting off the next day, Mu Yunting indeed sent someone to buy a horse.

Leng Yue rode the horse and tried it, and it felt okay.

So the group got on their horses and went a little faster.

They arrived at a small town at noon, but in order to hurry on their way, they did not enter the town and just rested on the side of the road. Leng Yue became much more lively than before and talked more.

Looking at the face that looked so similar to Xun Zheng, Mu Yunting's expression finally became gentle.

Su Nuan guessed that Leng Yue looked more like Xun Zheng now.

It's just that Leng Yue was a little too lively today. She kept chatting with Su Nuan. She started by talking about the latest news in Fenglin Town, and then started talking about her patrons.

These words always remind people of her former identity as an oiran. Staring at a face that looks very similar to Xun Zheng and hearing such words, even Su Nuan has complicated feelings. No matter what the purpose of the person in front of her is, she has indeed been a brothel girl.

Su Nuan glanced at Mu Yunting and saw that he had a cold face. She didn't know what he was thinking.

We moved faster in the afternoon and arrived at Xiaomian County when the lights came on.

This is the largest county passed by south of the imperial city, and its liveliness is incomparable to the previous towns.

As soon as she entered the city gate of Xiaomian County, Su Nuan saw a familiar figure, it was Ying Shu who was mixed in with the guards on the city tower.

She didn't dare look at Ying Shu for too long, for fear of being discovered by Mu Yunting and Ye Yin.

I don’t know why he appeared here, but Su Nuan was sure that he would not hurt Mu Yunting, because Mu Yunting was sincerely trying to overturn the case for the Xun family.

The group arrived at the inn and checked in. There were enough empty rooms in the inn, so Su Nuan asked for a single room, and Mu Yunting didn't say anything.

At night, Leng Yue took the initiative to find Su Nuan.

After hesitating for a long time, he didn't get to the point. Su Nuan hated it most when people didn't say what they wanted to say directly. When Leng Yue opened her mouth to chase people away, she finally got to the point.

"Madam, do you have any medicine for wounds?"

"You are hurt?"

"I rode a lot today."

Su Nuan instantly recalled the terrible condition of her inner thighs being rubbed raw after riding a horse on her first day.

She still has the ointment, and it works surprisingly well.

It can be seen that Leng Yue was very reluctant to speak to her.

Although Su Nuan didn't like her, there was no need to be hard on her at this time.

"Do you need help?"

While handing over the ointment, Su Nuan asked.

Leng Yue took the ointment, thanked her and politely declined Su Nuan's kindness.

After getting the ointment, she did not leave immediately, but hesitated and had something else to say.

"Anything else?" Su Nuan asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Madam, have you ever heard of Xun Zheng?"

Here it comes, here it comes, they finally start to provoke. Su Nuan feels inexplicably excited.

"What do you want to say to me?"

"I want to say that Xun Zheng was once the apple of the Crown Prince's eye. Concubine Xia should be careful of this person."

"Aren't you Xun Zheng's sister? Is it appropriate for you to come and tell me this?"

"There's nothing inappropriate about it. I just want to remind you that there is only one position for the Crown Princess. If you don't work hard, you will regret it when someone else takes it away."

"Do you know Xun Zheng is still alive?"

Leng Yue smiled faintly, "I think not only I know that she is still alive, Concubine Xia should also know it, but you didn't tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I guess you know the position of Xun Zheng in His Royal Highness's mind. If he knew that Xun Zheng is still alive, then the position of Crown Princess would really be left to no one else."

"What you said seems to make sense. But there is one thing I can't understand. If Xun Zheng is still alive, why doesn't she come to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

"Maybe there is some reason, who knows!"

"Then what is your purpose in getting close to the Crown Prince? You're not aiming for the position of Crown Princess, are you?"

Su Nuan asked this question out of pure curiosity, but to Leng Yue it sounded somewhat sarcastic.

"That's right. With my status, even if the Xun family is rehabilitated, I can't take that position, but I can help people who are on good terms with me become the Crown Princess."

"Just because you look a bit like Xun Zheng?"

"Yes."

"I do not believe!"

Su Nuan said she didn't believe it, but she was surprised in her heart. Leng Yue knew that Xun Zheng was still alive. Why did she think that she could let others sit on the position of Crown Princess just by relying on her face?

"Concubine Xia, you may as well wait and see if I have the ability to do so. But before that, you must first decide whether you want to be friends with me."

The conversation stopped here and Leng Yue said goodbye and left.

Su Nuan sat alone in front of the window thinking about every word of Leng Yue. She was using the position of Crown Princess as bait to lure him into cooperating with her.

But what benefits does this bring to Leng Yue?
