Xie Jing Xing swept a glance at the other person and sneered, "The people that Imperial Older Brother sent are just like this." His tone had a deep sense of ridicule, "One thought that their bones would be hard. Boring."
Ji Yu Shu could not help but speak, "What does His Majesty want you to do to Fifth Shen Young Lady?"
This person was caught at the entrance of the Shen mansion. It was also fortunate that Xie Jing Xing had sent his own people to keep a close watch on the Shen mansion to prevent any accidents from happening. This person's martial arts were extremely high and he was also quite vigilant so Xie Jing Xing's people had to wait for a few days before catching him. Now that he thought about it, it was not strange. After all, he was a spy by Emperor Yong Le's side. If he did not even have this ability, then the Great Liang imperial family would be in danger.
That guard originally wanted to say something but when he met Xie Jing Xing's smiling yet not smiling gaze, he could not help but feel a chill down his spine. One had to know that in the entire Imperial family of the Liang dynasty, this lazy and handsome Prince Rui who always had a casual smile on his face was the one that should not be provoked. Two years ago when he returned to the Great Liang, there were many forces in the imperial court that were secretly playing with each other but they were all settled by Xie Yuan. Those ministers that were against him were also uprooted and not even their roots were left. His methods were ruthless and his schemes were deep, but the way he did things made it impossible for others to find fault with him. However, other than fighting in the court, he had also done a number of beautiful things, leaving those conservative old ministers speechless. This was the reason why people loved and hated him.
Now under his sharp eyes that could see through everything, the guard did not dare to hide anymore and could only reveal everything, "His Majesty knew about Fifth Shen Young Lady's matter and feared that Your Highness was staying in Ming Qi because of Fifth Shen Young Lady, so he sent this subordinate to investigate … This subordinate did not want this subordinate to harm Fifth Shen Young Lady, it was all to investigate …"
Gao Yang's and Ji Yu Shu's expressions were not good at the same time. Even though Emperor Yong Le was in the Great Liang, it did not mean that there were no spies in Ming Qi's Ding capital. It was hard to say what would happen after discovering the relationship between Shen Miao and Xie Jing Xing. But with Emperor Yong Le's personality, he would never allow anything outside of his plan to happen. Shen Miao was after all a Ming Qi's person and this identity would bring about many variables. From Ji Yu Shu and Gao Yang's point of view, it was not certain that Emperor Yong Le would agree with Xie Jing Xing's thoughts.
However, the most troublesome thing was that these two brothers were equally stubborn. Once they decided on something, they would never change their minds. If Emperor Yong Le were to obstruct him, how would Xie Jing Xing obediently give in? In addition as compared to Emperor Yong Le, Xie Jing Xing had experienced quite a number of assassinations in Ming Qi and his temperament was even more unruly. If both brothers were to really fight, one fear that there would be a reign of terror and the sky would turn dark.
Sure enough, when Xie Jing Xing heard this, he laughed and said, "Oh? Since it is only to investigate, then there is no need to lock you in the tower prison. I will send you back to the Great Liang. "
The guard was slightly startled and before he could speak, Xie Jing Xing's voice was heard from above, "You know what to say?"
The guard hesitated for a moment. Prince Rui and Emperor Yong Le were equally terrifying existences and his heart was in despair as he probed, "Does Your Highness and Fifth Shen Young Lady have any relation?"
Xie Jing Xing looked at him with interest and his beautiful eyes seemed to have some deep meaning. He slowly said, "How can Imperial Older Brother's people lie?"
Gao Yang gripped the fan in his hands tightly and Ji Yu Shu swallowed his saliva.
"Go back and tell Imperial Older Brother that he is right. This Prince stayed behind because of Shen Miao." The youth's lips hooked up into a gentle smile but his brows were unyielding as he lightly said, "Do not have delusions of changing anything because this Prince does not allow it."
"Oh right, remember to remind Imperial Older Brother." He yawned, "Do not forget the agreement with this Prince."
…
The tranquil night covered up everything. It covered up the undercurrents in the residence of Prince Rui, covered up the schemes in Prince Ding's residence and also covered up the whispers in the General residence.
Qiu Shui Yuan had already been taken over by someone and the original mistress returned to her maiden family in a fit of anger and even fought a lawsuit with her husband's family. With this kind of incompatible fire and water, everyone knew that Chen Rou Qiu would not be able to have her former glory. And this new YiNiang had gentle and magnanimous brows and even had a child in her tummy. In the future, one feared that she would ascend to Heaven. There were not a few servants who stepped on the low and flattered the high so they immediately turned around to flatter this new master.
Chang Zai Qing sat in the room and touched her tummy with a gentle smile hanging on her face.
The Western courtyard was after all too far away and was somewhat deserted. Old Shen Furen found someone to calculate and found out that the child in Chang Zai Qing's tummy was a son. She immediately provided for Chang Zai Qing and Shen Wan even brought Chang Zai Qing to Qiu Shui Yuan so that it would be convenient to take care of her.
Chang Zai Qing was already the new Female Mistress of Qiu Shui Yuan and she was also very satisfied with the current situation. Even though Chen Rou Qiu's skills were deep, she was after all old and did not give birth to a son thus she was at a disadvantage in this battle.
Shen Wan entered the room and put down the tonic in his hands before walking over to Chang Zai Qing's side and touched her tummy before smiling, "Very good."
Chang Zai Qing responded with a smile but was suddenly startled before saying softly, "Is there something troubling Master?"
Shen Wan was startled for a moment before smiling bitterly, "There is really a troublesome matter."
