Zhao Ning went through the people around Mo Rongyi one by one in her mind. Everyone was suspicious, but she couldn't find anything suspicious about them. She didn't know who would want Mo Rongyi to be a stranger to her.
"Your Highness, I really can't think of anyone around the prince who is suspicious." Zhao Ning said helplessly.
Ye Zhen whispered, "No problem does not mean there is no suspicion. Let's wait and see. If you and Yi did not separate as he hoped, and the child was not left behind, he will definitely continue to take the next step."
"Hmm." Zhao Ning nodded gently. She planned to observe the people in the mansion. Maybe one of them wanted to drive a wedge between her and Mo Rongyi.
Ye Zhen looked at her ruddy face. "So you have to continue to be with Yi so that it will be easier to find the mastermind behind the scenes."
Zhao Ning blushed and did not speak. She was still angry with Mo Rongyi and did not want to forgive him so quickly. But when he acted like a hooligan at night, she could not resist at all.
"What are you doing? Waste, who let you come with me? "
Ye Zhen was about to tease Zhao Ning again when she heard a child's stern voice not far away. She looked over in confusion and saw several little boys standing on the other side. One of them, about seven or eight years old, wearing a maroon robe, was scolding a child two or three years younger than him.
"Why can't I come?" The younger boy looked mellow and honest. He felt a little wronged when he was scolded.
"What can you do if you come? Do you know how to ride a horse? You are scared to tears when you see the horse. You will only make a fool of yourself if you come here. Don't show up here or you will lose father's face. Let's see how he will deal with you when we go back. "
Are these two boys brothers? What kind of family education makes an elder brother humiliate his younger brother like this outside?
Before Ye Zhen could send someone to ask, she saw Ming Xi riding a horse and looking down at them. "Brother Zheng, why don't you go pick a horse?"
It turned out that the one who was scolded was Mo Lianzheng, the first son of the fifth prince. He looked at Mo Lianbang and said to Ming Xi, "Your Highness, I … I have never ridden a horse."
"Lin Yanbei will teach you." Ming Xi didn't even look at the boy who was scolding him. He let a youth beside him bring Mo Lian to pick a horse.
Mo Lianbang looked at Ming Xi eagerly, but the other youths standing beside him lowered their heads. They had all argued with Ming Xi here a few days ago. After knowing that Ming Xi was a prince, they were so scared that they didn't dare to sleep for a few nights. Today, they didn't even dare to hope that they could become his study partner. They only hoped that the prince wouldn't hold a grudge against them.
"What's your name?" Ming Xi asked the youth standing at the back.
The young man was stunned. He probably hadn't expected the prince to ask him a question. "Your Highness, my name is Xu Jinbei."
Ming Xi nodded lightly. He could clearly see that if he had not come to help Brother Zheng just now, this person would have attacked.
Xu Jinbei? He seemed to be Elder Xu's grandson.
"Go pick a horse with Brother Zheng and follow me into the forest," Ming Xi said.
"Yes." Xu Jinbei was stunned. His identity was the least prominent here, but the prince actually asked him to be his follower.
Mo Lianbang's face was burning. He felt as if Ming Xi had slapped him in front of everyone. He was the eldest son of the Fifth Marquis. Ming Xi didn't give him any face at all.
Ming Xi didn't care about the others anymore. He brought Xu Jinbei and Mo Lian away.
"What's the meaning of this, Your Highness?" Someone beside Mo Lianbang asked softly.
"How would I know!" Mo Lianbang snorted. "Let's go."
"Go?" Ruan Zimao exclaimed. "His Highness is here. Where can we go?"
Mo Lianbang knew that he definitely wouldn't become the prince's study partner. He didn't want to embarrass himself here. "His Highness doesn't even look at us. Do you think you still have a chance to become his study partner?"
"Then … then Brother Zheng and Xu Jinbei can?" Ruan Zimao asked unwillingly. Although Brother Zheng was silly, he was still the legitimate son of the Fifth Marquis. But what about Xu Jinbei? He was just a lowly child of the Xu family. His biological mother didn't even have the status of a concubine. How could he be compared with them?
"I'm not a prince. How would I know?" Mo Lianbang didn't want to stay here at all. He felt that it was too shameful.
Ye Zhen looked at the scene in silence, a faint smile floating on her mouth.
"Your Highness, that's Lu Jing's son." Hong Ling whispered beside Ye Zhen.
"Then the one called by Ming Xi is the son of the Fifth Marquis." Ye Zhen smiled. "It seems that the Fifth Marquis dotes on the son of this concubine very much."
Ye Zhen retracted her gaze. She didn't intend to intervene in the affairs between the children.
What's more, Mo Rongzhan was here.
"Let's go." Ye Zhen actually wanted to go horseback riding, but not today. When she woke up in the morning, she found that her period had come. Even if she wanted to go, Mo Rongzhan would not agree.
Ye Zhen and Zhao Ning hadn't walked out of the hunting ground yet when they saw Lu Jing coming with her son. "Your Highness …"
"What's the matter?" Ye Zhen looked down at Mo Lianbang, not understanding why Lu Jing came to see her.
"Your Highness, Brother Zheng was wrong that day. He already knows his mistake. Can't you give Brother Zheng a chance?" Lu Jing suppressed her anger and asked. She just heard her son say that His Royal Highness had called Brother Zheng but ignored her son. She felt a burst of anger in her heart. No matter how she looked at it, wasn't her son closer to Lu Yaoyao's son?
Ye Zhen understood why Lu Jing came to see her. She smiled faintly. "Concubine Lu, this consort doesn't quite understand what you mean. Today, it is Ming Xi who wants to choose a playmate, not this consort."
Lu Jing gritted her teeth. "Your Highness, do you really not care about sisterhood at all?"
Sisterhood? Ye Zhen was amused. "Concubine Lu, have you forgotten what this consort has said about you? Don't forget your identity. You are not in charge of the Prince's Mansion, and your son will not be a Prince in the future."
What did Lu Yaoyao once say about her?
Selfish and self-serving, without the slightest affection for her sisters!
Lu Yaoyao actually blamed her for not helping Lu Fang in the first place.
Ye Zhen didn't want to talk more with Lu Jing and left with Zhao Ning.
At noon, Ye Zhen set up a banquet in the lobby. Mo Rongzhan did not appear at the banquet. He and Ming Xi rode a few laps in the hunting ground and went back. Ming Xi also told her that he wanted to go back first before the banquet was over.
It seemed that Ming Xi's reading companion had already been selected.
"Your Highness, just now the girl of the Ruan family sneaked into the hunting ground and startled the horses there. She was trampled on by them …"
When Ye Zhen heard this, her eyes darkened.
The horses in the hunting ground were tamed by professionals and would not easily hurt people. What did Ruan Xiuzhen do to let a horse trample her leg?
