Until Cui Hengyue left the Regent's Palace, Chen Linshen still stood there, his eyes lost and his expression sluggish.

After a long time, Songmu saw that Chen Linshen was still motionless and cautiously stepped forward to remind him: "Prince, don't you still have something to tell the princess?"

Chen Linshen seemed to have regained his consciousness and turned to look at Songmu: "That boy Song Zhuoxing is just a profit-seeking businessman, what good is he?

"What exactly does she like about that boy?"

Songmu felt that his master was in a daze, and if he could not untie his knot, he might sink from there.

Thinking of this, Songmu pondered for a while and answered seriously: "Shortly after Miss Cui was born, her mother took her to Yunxuan Temple.

"She grew up in Yunxuan Temple, and what she saw and heard was only a small area. How did she know that there are not only good-looking people in this world, but also men like you, master?"

All in all, Cui Hengyue has little knowledge, does not know gold and jade, and treats earthen jars as treasures.

Of course, in front of his master, he could not directly speak ill of Cui Hengyue.

Chen Linshen was still confused: "But, she has already met me and we have been together for a while, so why did she choose that guy in the end?"

"This..." Songmu suddenly felt that what he just said had dug a hole for himself, and he was speechless for a moment.

In a hurry, he explained: "That's because the person Miss Cui met first was not you, the prince. Everything comes first, then comes last. Master, you are just one step late."

Chen Linshen fell silent.

Just when Songmu thought he had convinced his master, Chen Linshen suddenly asked: "Is the order really so important that it can determine the fate of a person's life?"

"Well, it's important, very important." Songmu replied seriously.

This time, Chen Linshen moved. He turned around and walked back the way he came.

Cui Hengyue was already on his way out of the city at this time.

"Hurry up." Cui Hengyue opened the curtain and urged the driver.

The person driving the carriage today was Yao Shisan. While he used his whip to drive the horse to speed up, he whispered to Shui Fu next to him: "Where are Yuan Niang going?"

"Stop asking around and concentrate on driving the carriage." Shuifu scolded.

Yao Shisan curled his lips and didn't take it seriously. After a moment of silence, he spoke again: "Why don't you see Ju Hong today? What did Yuan Niang tell her to do?"

Shui Fu was wary and asked instead of answering: "Why are you asking about Orange? What is your relationship with her?"

He didn't get an answer, but instead aroused suspicion. Yao Shisan was a little depressed: "I just asked casually. It's a long road, and I feel panicked if I don't speak."

"Were you not a talkative person before?"

"People change..."

Cui Hengyue was sitting in the carriage with her eyes closed tightly. She looked like she was asleep, but in fact she heard all the conversations between Yao Shisan and Shui Fu.

A suspicion arose in her mind and she decided to investigate after returning home.

After an unknown amount of time, the carriage slowly stopped, and Shui Fu's voice came from outside: "Yuan Niang, we're here."

Cui Hengyue opened her eyes and got out of the carriage with Shui Rong.

This is a farm, which looks very inconspicuous. No one would have thought that she would hide people here.

"You guys stay outside and Shui Fu comes in with me."

After Cui Hengyue gave his instructions, he asked Shui Fu to lead the way into the farm.

Shui Fu led the way and introduced: "According to your instructions, there are usually only two people arranged at the farm. Today you are coming, and I have asked them to avoid it. Now only Achang is here."

Cui Hengyue showed a satisfied look.

Walking to the innermost room, Shui Fu stopped and said, "Yuan Niang, Achang is inside."

"You stay outside and call me if anything happens." After Cui Hengyue ordered, he opened the door and went in.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Achang immediately put down his chopsticks and stood up: "You are..."

Seeing clearly Cui Hengyue's face that looked exactly like Cui Yongxuan, Achang became excited: "Are you the third master's daughter?"

"Yes." Cui Hengyue did not deny it. His eyes swept over the food on the table calmly. The aroma was tempting, but Shui Fu did not treat him badly.

Cui Hengyue relaxed her expression and showed goodwill: "Don't be restrained, just sit down and talk."

After finishing her words, she took the lead and sat down.

Achang hesitated for a moment and finally sat on the stool: "May I ask who the little lady's mother is..."

As far as he knew, the current Mrs. Cui San was not named Wang. Is this young lady the daughter of the Wang family or the daughter of Mrs. Xin San?

"Who do you think my mother is?" Cui Hengyue asked without answering.

Achang looked embarrassed, fearing that he had said the wrong thing, so he kept silent.

Seeing this, Cui Hengyue took the initiative to tell the answer: "My mother's surname is Wang."

"No wonder..." Achang showed a look of sudden realization.

Cui Hengyue followed his words and asked: "What's the wonder?"

Achang lowered his eyes: "It turns out that she is the daughter of Lady Wang. No wonder she has such a detached temperament that people dare not look directly at her."

Everyone likes to hear nice words, but after Cui Hengyue heard this, he just smiled and got to the point: "I know you have had a hard time in recent years, and it's all thanks to what happened back then.

"As long as you tell me the truth about that year, I will give you a sum of money, enough for your family to live a prosperous life."

The truth of that year?

Could it be...

Achang's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt guilty. He asked forcefully and calmly: "What do you want to know, little lady?"

Cui Hengyue stared at him closely and said word by word: "My mother gave birth to a boy before giving birth to me. I want to know how my brother died."

This is indeed what happened.

Achang suddenly became embarrassed.

It was because of this incident that he was kicked out of the Cui Mansion by the old lady and lived in poverty for fifteen years.

He still remembered what the old lady warned him before being driven away: "If the third child hadn't interceded for you, you would have died long ago.

"Keep your mouth shut after you leave. If I hear even a few words about this matter from others, I will not be able to forgive you.

"And your whole family will die because of you..."

When he thought of this, Achang was so frightened that he knelt down in front of Cui Hengyue and begged: "Little lady, please spare me, I don't know anything, really..."

"My brother was thrown to death by my father."

Cui Hengyue's words made Achang stop begging for mercy.

He looked at Cui Hengyue in disbelief: "How do you know..."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he realized that he had let something slip, and he immediately regretted it.

Cui Hengyue said coldly: "If you tell the truth, I will keep you safe and give you wealth.

"But if you lie to me, I will send you to Jingzhao Mansion and accuse you of killing my brother."

Achang raised his head angrily: "I didn't kill your brother. You are framed."

"So what?"

Cui Hengyue made no secret of his intentions and said slowly: "Since you don't tell the truth, why should I pity you?

"What's more, you watched my brother die before your eyes and did nothing to save him. How is this any different from killing someone?

"Today, you ended up like this, and it's all your own fault."
