If it were yesterday, Hu Ling'er would not have any doubts, but after seeing the other side of Wen Xingchen, she had to be on guard because he was probably testing her.
"Oh my God, there is an assassin?" Hu Ling'er pretended to be surprised, looked at Wen Xingchen nervously, and asked with concern: "Then Fourth Prince, are you okay? Are you injured?"
"I'm fine." Wen Xingchen shook his head and frowned: "That person didn't mean to hurt me. It seemed like she came to steal something or to inquire about something. And although she was fast, she didn't seem to have any problems.
With Qinggong, I was easily caught up with him."
Listening to his analysis, Hu Ling'er was very ashamed. She really didn't know how to do Qinggong.
She was actually despised by a young lady.
When Wen Keyue heard this, she quickly asked: "Did you catch up with her? Then did you see her face?"
"No." Wen Xingchen continued to shake his head, "She was wearing night clothes and her face was covered, but you can tell from her figure that she is a woman."
When he said the word "woman", Wen Xingchen's eyes swept over Hu Ling'er with a vague feeling.
Hu Ling'er caught his gaze and her heart skipped a beat. He was indeed suspicious.
This Wen Xingchen is really not simple.
But since he came directly to her door like this and told her these things, he must have ulterior motives.
While she was thinking about it, Wen Keyue asked again: "Did you tell your father?"
"Haha, there's no need." Wen Xingchen smiled softly, his smile full of self-deprecation: "He has too many things going on recently, how can I bother him with these insignificant things?"
Wen Keyue heard this and responded: "Yes, I heard that the envoys from Qi Xia Kingdom are coming to the palace today."
An envoy from Qi Xia?
Hu Ling'er was stunned, and her intuition told her that this person was Xia Yihan.
No wonder he disappeared early in the morning. It turned out that he was preparing to enter the palace, but what was he doing here? Was it for Qi Huanyan's marriage?
"Brother Four Emperors, do you think the envoy from Qixia Kingdom came here for the purpose of getting married?" Wen Keyue had long heard from Hu Ling'er that Wen Xingchen was planning to get married to Princess Qixia Kingdom.
Wen Xingchen pursed his lips and said impatiently: "Regardless of whether it is true or not, I will not marry that princess anyway."
While the three of them were talking, the palace maid Xiao Cui served them tea.
Wen Xingchen picked up the tea and took a sip, but when he put the cup down, his hand shook and knocked the cup over on the table.
"Oops!" Wen Keyue stood up quickly, but there was still tea on her white skirt.
Wen Xingchen said apologetically: "Sister Huang, I'm really sorry!"
Wen Keyue smiled and said nonchalantly: "It's okay, you and Sister Ling chat first, I'll go change clothes."
"Okay." Wen Xingchen nodded and watched Wen Keyue leave gracefully.
Xiaocui also went to help Wen Keyue change clothes, and Hu Ling'er and Wen Xingchen were the only ones left in the room.
Hu Ling'er witnessed the whole process from Wen Xingchen knocking over the tea cup to Wen Keyue leaving. She knew that he did this deliberately in order to get rid of Wen Keyue.
So now...
Sure enough, after the door was closed, Wen Xingchen's eyes changed.
There was a faint smile in his slightly narrowed eyes. He looked at Hu Linger, who had been silent all this time, and said in a deep voice: "Sister Ling, was that you last night?"
Hu Ling'er didn't want to admit that she had been seen through by a harmless young lady.
But since he said so, there was no need to hide it. The corner of his mouth curled up slightly and he said, "Are you so sure that I will admit it?"
"Of course." The smile spread to Wen Xingchen's face, "I also know that you used the emperor's sister to sneak into the palace, and I also know the purpose of your coming to my palace."
"Really? Then tell me, why am I here?" Although Hu Ling'er's tone was calm, she couldn't help but feel excited in her heart.
Is Yao Xue really there with him? So does she already know her identity?
Wen Xingchen didn't answer, he just reached into his arms and took out something, then put it in front of Hu Ling'er.
Hu Ling'er looked down and jumped up in the next second: "You...how do you have this photo?"
It was a modern photo, and the people in the photo were the three sisters.
Seeing her excited expression, Wen Xingchen let out a breath, pointed at one of them, Hu Ling'er, who was dressed in red, and said, "This person is indeed you, isn't it?"
"It's me, it's me." Hu Ling'er grabbed the photo with one hand and Wen Xingchen's arm with the other, and said excitedly: "This photo belongs to Yao'er, so you know Yao'er, right? Where is she? Please take her there quickly.
I’ll go see her!”
After working so hard and missing so much, now we finally have the exact news about Yao Xue, how can she not be excited?
"Sister Ling, please don't get excited." Wen Xingchen held down Hu Ling'er's hand and asked her to sit back on the stool. Then he took her photo, pointed at the girl with short hair in black and said, "You are talking about a monster.
Son, is it her?"
"You...you don't know her?" Hu Ling'er was shocked when he asked.
Wen Xingchen smiled bitterly and said a little helplessly: "I know her, but I don't know her name."
Looking at his expression, Hu Ling'er felt that the relationship between the two might be more complicated than she imagined. She could only suppress the excitement in her heart and asked: "What is going on?"
Wen Xingchen glanced at her, then turned the photo to the back, where the words "Snow Fox" were clearly written.
Hu Ling'er was startled. She really didn't know that these three words were written on the back of the photo.
It seems that Wen Xingchen already knew her identity after seeing her. It's ridiculous that he even pretended to tell him the story of the Snow Fox.
While he was thinking about it, Wen Xingchen said, "This is a long story. Sister Ling, you'd better go to a place with me first."
"Okay." Hu Ling'er stood up immediately, her intuition telling her that Wen Xingchen was going to take her to see Yao Xue.
