The banquet quickly came to an end.
Jiang Huan remembered what he said earlier and came to find Gu Shengyin: "I just told Prince Jingan that we have some matters to attend to, so we have to leave first."
At this time, the system also sent a notification: "Host, Princess Shu He's carriage has already been prepared at the left gate of the residence."
The heavens are helping me! Gu Shengyin's eyes lit up. Jiang Huan's carriage just so happened to be at the left gate.
The two of them walked out of the residence.
At this time, there were many carriages of high officials and nobles parked outside the residence. All of them had servants guarding them, but because there were too many people, it was a bit messy.
It was likely that Princess Shu He and the others had seen through this and were preparing to leave quietly while there were many people watching.
Gu Shengyin slowly walked and quickly locked onto Princess Shu He's position.
If it wasn't for the system's notification, she wouldn't have discovered that this woman with a sallow complexion and coarse clothing was actually Princess Shu He, who was famous for her beauty in the capital.
Coincidentally, the carriage she prepared was also an ordinary-looking carriage with blue curtains, but from the outside, it was eighty percent similar to Jiang Huan's carriage.
Gu Shengyin suddenly stopped in her tracks and said to Jiang Huan: "I heard that Princess Consort Jingan loves flowers and that there are more exotic flowers and plants in the rear garden than in the imperial garden. There's even a stalk of Indian orchid that's the only stalk in Tianyun Dynasty. I actually forgot to take a look earlier."
Jiang Huan's interest was piqued: "There's such a thing?"
Gu Shengyin laughed inwardly: "Then why don't we go take a look?"
She pretended to inadvertently call out to Princess Shu He, who was about to get on the carriage: "You're a servant of the Prince of Jingan's residence. Do you know where the Indian orchid is located in the residence? If it's convenient, can you take us there to take a look? "
Princess Shu He froze in place. She never expected that just as she was about to succeed, she would meet the person she didn't want to meet the most.
Her mind raced, but on the surface, she only slightly lowered her head and said in a low voice: "Replying to Daren, this servant is only a woman who does rough work. This time, this servant was commissioned by the master to go buy some ingredients and doesn't know where the Indian orchid is."
"Oh," Gu Shengyin replied.
Princess Shu He heaved a sigh of relief and was about to leave when she heard Gu Shengyin say with certainty, "You're lying!"
Princess Shu He's heart skipped a beat. As expected, Gu Shengyin continued, "You said that you are only a servant who does rough work. I see that your clothes are indeed unsightly, but your hands are fair and delicate. These are not the hands that a servant who does rough work should have. Moreover, you say that you're just a rough woman, but I can see that you're very dignified, so you're lying! You couldn't be one of the head maidservants of Prince Jing 'an's estate, and you secretly stole money from your master and ran away, right? "
Princess Shu He's heart was in her throat. She was thinking about how to deal with it when a gentle voice came from the carriage. "She's just a servant. General Fu, don't bother with her."
It was Fang Mingyu.
Gu Shengyin looked at the man who came forward to help Princess Shu He out of her predicament. He was indeed a man of striking appearance. She could see that he had deep feelings for Princess Shu He.
However, these two feelings were too deep. Had anyone considered Fu Yunzhen's feelings?
She snorted: "Heir Fang?"
She glanced at Jiang Huan from the corner of her eye and discovered that the other party's gaze was on Princess Shu He, who was pretending to be a servant. His brows were deeply furrowed.
This meant that he was suspicious of Princess Shu He's identity.
