Chapter 19: The Disappearing Informant

Just as she was about to explain aloud, Liu Rao had already stepped forward: "The princess has disgraced me. I am just a concubine, how can I be the princess?"

After saying this, she looked at Zong Zhengtang with a smile.

Zong Zhengtang seemed to be aware of his gaffe, and took Liu's hand and talked to her about other things.

Huan Ci, who was standing aside, was so disturbed that he didn't even hear what they said.

After a hurried lunch, she excused herself as feeling unwell and left without saying goodbye to Fu Shen.

At that time, Ayao was chatting with people outside the Chuihua Gate, when he suddenly saw his own girl walking out with a gloomy look on her face.

She hurriedly ran up to follow him, but didn't wait for Huan Ci to speak for a long time.

"Girl, what's wrong with you? Mr. Fu is bullying you?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Let's go back quickly, I don't want to stay here anymore." Huan Ci was struck by what he said, and he glanced around in a panic, fearing that someone might hear what he said.

Ayao became more and more puzzled and followed behind, shaking her head helplessly.

After getting on the carriage, Huan Ci sat listlessly, and the previous memories rushed into her mind like ghosts.

If she had ever behaved particularly unusually with Fu Shen in the past, it was the night before the two of them broke off. In order to threaten her father, she drank a lot of wine for Fu Shen and learned some special tricks.

She coaxed Fu Shen to come that day just to cook the rice, so that her father would have no reason to object.

Although the plan failed in the end, Huan Ci would often think of what happened that night.

The man's blurred eyes, his deep voice, and the obvious changes that had occurred because of her deliberate actions.

"Girl, why is your face so red?"

Ayao's abrupt voice successfully interrupted her thoughts.

"Cough——" Huan Ci put the back of his hand on his face, he was indeed feeling a little feverish.

"Maybe it was because I was frozen just now. It's okay." She said softly.

Ayao handed the hand stove to her and said with a smile: "Just before dinner, I went to the house next to it. Someone was cleaning it, and all the facilities had to be replaced with new ones. I heard that it was ordered by His Highness the Crown Prince. He is really thoughtful.

Already."

"It's hard to worry about him." Huan Ci agreed casually.

"It's just that-" Ayao frowned again, "Everything else is fine, but it's too close to Mr. Fu's house. They were drinking and fist-fighting in the yard just now, and they could be heard clearly on the other side."

"It's nothing, but today is special."

"Not only that, our corner gate is almost next to theirs, which is too dangerous. If we want to do anything, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult."

"It's the same everywhere, we just have to be careful."

"Girl, you don't think His Majesty knows anything, right? If Mr. Fu had said something to him, wouldn't it be true?"

Huan Ci shook his head. If Fu Shen really told the story about the two of them, Zong Zhengyuan would be suspicious of him. Although she couldn't guarantee it, she thought Fu Shen was not someone who would take advantage of such things.

yes.

"Maybe Zong Zhengyuan wants to find another way to put me under his nose." Huan Ci expressed his suspicion.

Ayao sighed: "Now the prince's eyeliner is even more afraid to show his face."

"Then find a way to meet outside." Huan Ci looked firmly at the car curtain.

However, there is no news about those people so far, which is really suspicious. Huan Ci even suspected that it was possible that they had been exposed or had died.
