Chapter 186 A Bad Premonition

"Master, are you having a nightmare?"

The housekeeper looked at the sky outside and then at Zhou Hongjing.

If he was not a doctor, he would have wanted to go up and touch Zhou Hongjing's forehead to see if he had a fever.

Why are you talking nonsense in broad daylight?

"It's not a dream, it's real. Someone really wants to kill me."

Zhou Hongjing's eyes were filled with fear, and he even shrank into the quilt while speaking.

"Master, would you like to ask a doctor to come and take a look?"

The butler didn't know how to respond.

I also thought that my grandfather's illness was caused by fright, so it was inevitable that he would suffer from convulsions and nightmares.

It would be better to ask the doctor to come and prescribe some calming medicine.

"No, I'm well now, I don't need to take medicine anymore."

Zhou Hongjing didn't have any dreams, but he just had a bad feeling for some reason, as if someone was targeting him.

"Master..."

The housekeeper still wanted to persuade.

But Zhou Hongjing interrupted him.

"Butler, you are like this tonight..."

After Zhou Hongjing gave instructions to the housekeeper, he could no longer fall asleep.

He couldn't continue recuperating in the mansion like this, he had to go to court.

As for the matter of the young girl, he should also discuss it with the Ma family. He can't just pretend that nothing happened without asking the Ma family, right?

Anyway, his eldest daughter was the concubine of Prince Ning, so he didn't believe that the Ma family would dare to take his youngest daughter as a concubine.

Zhou Jiaming didn't know that her father was going to seek justice from the Ma family on her behalf.

She had sent people to guard outside the capital hall since yesterday, in order to find out the hours when Chu Chengxi was on duty and the route he took.

She also sent people to guard the Fifteenth Prince's Mansion.

She didn't have the courage to inquire openly.

But she still had a way to act secretly like this. At worst, she could just keep an eye on it for a few more days and she would be able to find out the information she wanted.

"Miss, the route for the fifteenth prince to go on duty has been determined."

Zhou Jiaming's personal maid ran in happily.

Not caring about his cold hands, he quickly took out a piece of paper hidden in his sleeve and handed it to his master.

"I've only been following him for less than a day, how did you figure it out so clearly?"

Zhou Jiaming turned over and sat up from the couch. Although there was doubt in his words, there was joy in his eyes.

"Miss, although there is only one day, the Fifteenth Prince also has to go on duty. As long as our people follow closely, we will be able to find out."

The maid couldn't understand the lines on the paper, but she believed that her mistress would be able to understand it.

"Well, this map is quite clear. Let them follow it for another two days. If there are any new routes, let them draw them out as well."

Zhou Jiaming has learned his lesson this time and doesn't want to go out and freeze every day.

The last time was because Zhou Hongjing did not make it clear why he asked her to go to the city gate.

When things went wrong later, she also blamed Zhou Hongjing a little.

So this time she planned it on her own and didn't tell Zhou Hongjing.

I just need to wait until it is accomplished, shock Zhou Hongjing so much that he will look at me with new eyes.

"Yes, I will go now."

After the maid left, Zhou Jiaming continued to lean on the couch and took out the picture to study it.

How can I attract the attention of the fifteenth prince?

Hitting a horse-drawn carriage? On a snowy winter day, not many people are out and about. Isn't it a bit too deliberate to hit a horse-drawn carriage on the street?

Being hunted and need help? Well, that's not an option.

Last time at the city gate, she was abducted by a "bad guy" and rescued by a "kind-hearted person".

The 'good-hearted man' could not resist the 'bad man's' pursuit and threw her into the 'passer-by's' carriage by mistake.

If she uses this trick again this time, I'm afraid the Fifteenth Prince will become suspicious.

Or just fall from the sky and into his carriage?

No, no, that would be too much like being thrown into a passerby's carriage at the city gate.

Tamper with his carriage, and when he breaks down halfway through the journey, someone happens to pass by and lends a hand?

Well, this method is feasible, but you have to arrange the manpower in advance.

......

Zhou Jiaming looked at the simple route map and thought about it for several hours.

It was almost time for dinner before I went to Mrs. Zhou's yard.

"What happy thing happened?"

Mrs. Zhou saw her daughter's happy face and asked with a smile.

Although this little girl was spoiled, she was old enough to get married.

I don’t know which family my husband will tell her about.

"Mother, I am just happy to see you. There is nothing else I can be happy about."

Zhou Jiaming touched his still hot face and felt a little guilty.

In the afternoon, she not only thought of a way to take down Chu Chengxi, but also thought about their having children.

If she hadn't had to follow the rules to have dinner with her mother, she would have been able to think of nicknames for her two children.

"Okay, mother believes Ming'er."

Mrs. Zhou knew it was not appropriate to ask her daughter's thoughts, so she stopped talking.

If the father doesn't agree with the person his daughter likes, it would be useless for her to ask.

So, after her sons and daughters-in-law arrived, she started to prepare meals and didn't say anything else.

......

At night, Chu Qinshu had just washed up and went to sleep in her little rocking bed when Xiao Hulu called her.

"Master, the Queen seems to have remembered something."

Little Gourd actually stared at the Queen all day today.

Seeing her making a wish every now and then and calling the 'call system' every now and then, Xiao Hulu had to admit defeat.

With such persistence, why not do something else?

In her previous life, she stole someone else's husband, and in Sheng'an Country, she stole her own brother-in-law.

When she failed to rob her brother-in-law, she tried to rob someone else's husband. When she failed to rob someone else's husband, she went to rob someone else's father.

So in this life, she couldn't get by without stealing something, right?

I don’t know how many times the empress has died and come back to life this time. She doesn’t want to rob people anymore, but wants to rob a system.

It's a pity that after working hard all day, it seems like she still got nothing.

"Now that you remember it, I won't go into the space tonight. I don't want my dad to look at me like a monkey all night long."

Chu Qinshu closed her eyes and only talked to the little gourd with her consciousness, but she really did not enter the space.

She didn't sleep last night and was very sleep deprived. She had to make up for it tonight no matter what.

Otherwise, if she doesn’t grow taller, she won’t have anywhere to cry.

Moreover, after falling asleep, she waved her arms and kicked her legs like she was sleepwalking all night long. Not only would her father be worried, but she would also be worried to death if she were in her place.

Whose child looks like her?

Isn't it scary to see such a commotion all night long?

"Master, the Queen is calling for Worm Valley. She has been calling for an hour."

Xiao Hulu didn't mind whether Chu Qinshu entered the space or not, as long as it didn't disturb their chat.

"Well, let me tell you, memory is something that can be recalled with stimulation."

Chu Qinshu didn't care what the Queen remembered.

The Worm Valley has been banned by the Imperial Master. Without the Imperial Master's personal ban, it will be useless no matter how much the Empress shouts.
