At this time, Xiao Zilan had already come out from behind the bed.
She had just witnessed Yue Haoyun detaining the princess and was a little panicked for a moment.
Yue Haoyun said to her, "Don't panic, just come with me."
After saying that, he took Xifeng and Xiao Zilan out.
After a while, they arrived at the courtyard where the second prince and his family lived.
The second prince had not gone to bed yet, and Han Qingbo was there too. They were waiting for Yue Haoyun to come back from the palace to discuss things with them.
The two sat in the yard, drinking tea and waiting for Yue Haoyun to arrive.
The Second Prince was shocked when he saw Yue Haoyun brought Xiao Zilan with him. Just as he was about to ask Xiao Zilan something, Xiao Zilan immediately made a gesture of silence, indicating that the Second Prince should not reveal his identity for the time being.
The Second Prince had to swallow the words that were about to come out of his mouth and said, "Your Highness, we are waiting for you!"
Yue Haoyun pulled the second prince and Han Qingbo into the house, one in each hand.
Xia Miaoyuan suppressed his sleepiness and followed the three people inside like a little tail.
After closing the door, Yue Haoyun said directly, "We have to change our plan. Zhu Ling can't wait any longer."
The Second Prince and Han Qingbo hurriedly asked, "What happened?"
Yue Haoyun briefly recounted the conversation between Zhu Ling and him tonight, and also told how he was almost poisoned to death by the princess after returning home.
"They actually poisoned you tonight! They want to poison you to death?" The second prince asked in shock.
Yue Haoyun said with lingering fear, "If it weren't for the kitchen manager Qiao's reminder, I would have gone to see the King of Hell by now."
Xia Miaoyuan's eyes lit up when he heard the name "Master Qiao," "Master Qiao, that must be my aunt!"
【My aunt has done a great job! 】
Han Qingbo frowned and said, "After Zhu Ling came to question you, the princess poisoned you that night. This shows that Zhu Ling did not believe your words."
Yue Haoyun nodded: "Yes, I think so too. Zhu Ling may have seen through it. I have a plan with you."
The Second Prince rubbed his chin and said, "Although you have escaped today, if they find out that you are not dead, they will definitely continue to harm you."
Yue Haoyun said, "I was afraid that Min would report to Zhu Ling that I wasn't poisoned, so I locked them up in a hurry."
"But what should we do next?"
Xia Miaoyuan grabbed her hair, her eyes suddenly brightening. [Why not just use their trick against them? Let Yue Haoyun pretend to be dead!]
"However, how should I tell them this? Would it make me seem too clever if I just told them directly?"
While Xia Miaoyuan was hesitating, the Second Prince slapped his head and said, "How about we try to use their own tactics against them? What do you think?"
【Ahhh! Big Brother is so smart now! 】
Han Qingbo nodded repeatedly: "I think it's okay! Let the prince fake his death, then our plan can continue, and it will also make Zhu Ling and the others relax their vigilance against us."
The Second Prince murmured, "That's all well and good, but what about the Min family? If we want to fake the eldest prince's death and deceive Zhu Ling, Han Lie and the others, we need the Min family's cooperation."
Yue Haoyun patted the Second Prince's shoulder and said, "Have you forgotten? We still have Chunyu Yilan!"
The Second Prince and Han Qingbo said in unison: "Poison?"
Yue Haoyun nodded and said, "If you want to control someone, the best way is to use a Gu."
Then, the three of them discussed the specific details of faking their death.
After the discussion, Yue Haoyun called Xiao Zilan in.
Xiao Zilan didn't know what Yue Haoyun meant, and his face was confused.
Yue Haoyun looked at Xiao Zilan gently and said in a soft voice, "Master Qiao, don't panic. I want to tell you something important."
[Oh my god, why does it feel like there's something wrong with the way Yue Haoyun looks at my aunt?]
[That look is like drawing silk! It's not just the look of a master looking at a maid. That voice is really weird too.]
Xia Miaoyuan sat on a small bench in the corner, observing Yue Haoyun with burning eyes.
The Second Prince and Xiao Zilan were both shocked when they heard Xia Miaoyuan say this in her heart.
Especially Xiao Zilan, she slowly raised her eyes and tried to look at Yue Haoyun, but when she met his burning gaze, her ears suddenly turned red.
[Oh my god, my aunt's ears are red. This reaction is not right. Are these two in love?]
"Ahem!" The second prince almost laughed when he heard this, and quickly coughed twice to cover it up.
Yue Haoyun couldn't hear Xia Miaoyuan's inner voice and continued, "Master Qiao, I have actually been observing you for a long time."
"Ahhh, what does Yue Haoyun mean by this opening line? Is he going to confess his feelings in public?" Xia Miaoyuan's gossipy heart was pounding.
However, Yue Haoyun's next words were not what Xia Miaoyuan expected.
"I have discovered that you are an upright person and very loyal to me."
"Today, you saved my life. From now on, you are someone I trust. I want you to do something confidential for me. Are you willing?"
When Xia Miaoyuan heard Yue Haoyun say this, her gossipy heart immediately cooled down.
But Xiao Zilan's face instantly blossomed with a joyful smile, and she said loudly: "I am willing!"
Xia Miaoyuan glared at Xiao Zilan, her mind filled with complaints. "Come on, Auntie, you agreed to this without even asking if it was dangerous?"
[Looking at your worthless smile, could it be that you've fallen in love with Yue Haoyun? ]
When Xiao Zilan heard Xia Miaoyuan's thoughts, she quickly lowered her head, her cheeks already flushed.
