Seeing this, Yang Xin held back his laughter and swam closer to Prince Yueqing, hanging on him like an octopus, and took the opportunity to reach into his purse.
After dealing with Prince Yueqing for so long, Yang Xin felt much more relieved seeing him struggling in the water.
Prince Yueqing wanted to curse in his heart. He had finally swam up, but Yang Xin jumped down, aiming at him, and made him choke on a lot of water.
Prince Yueqing, who was originally feeling somewhat unhappy, was somewhat surprised when he saw Yang Xin's worried face.
Yang Xin usually seemed indifferent to him, but unexpectedly, she cared about him at the critical moment.
His attention was all on Yang Xin, who was pulling him, and since they were in the water, he naturally didn't notice Yang Xin pulling his purse.
After confirming that the purse contained what he wanted, Yang Xin quietly put the purse away and swam upstream.
"Is the prince okay?" Yang Xin wrung the water out of his clothes and looked at the somewhat embarrassed Prince Yueqing.
"It's okay," Prince Yueqing stood up and raised his hand to wipe the water droplets from his hair.
The wet clothes on his body made him feel particularly uncomfortable. He casually expressed his concern for Yang Xin and saw his subordinates coming over in a hurry.
"Your Highness," the subordinate stepped forward to support Prince Yueqing, "Go back to the palace and change your clothes first."
Weren't they swimming in the lake? How did they actually end up swimming in the lake?
The subordinate was originally waiting by the lake, but when he heard that someone had fallen into the water, he walked over to see that it was King Yueqing and Yang Xin who had fallen into the water.
Prince Yueqing glanced behind his boat, trying to figure out who was so blind.
"Don't catch a cold, Your Highness. Go back and change your clothes and drink some hot soup to warm yourself up."
Yang Xin was worried that Prince Yueqing would pay too much attention to this, and it would be bad if he found out that his purse was missing.
Prince Yueqing looked at Yang Xin's worried expression and nodded.
"You should go back early too, don't catch a cold."
Looking at the departing figure of Prince Yueqing, Yang Xin breathed a sigh of relief and followed him away from the lake.
Qingfeng Qingrong followed behind Yang Xin and saw her walk to a corner where there were few people and stop, and said to the air.
"I got the things. You can use them and then bring them back to me."
"Okay." Qingfeng responded, and saw Yang Xin put the purse on the ground.
…
Get the key in your purse.
Qingrong secretly escorted Yang Xin back home, and Qingfeng took the purse to the palace to see the emperor.
The emperor didn't expect Yang Xin to be so fast.
[Yang Xin is amazing! I finally understand the nature of Prince Yueqing. He just likes to ignore him.]
[The weather isn't too hot, so why is he trying to get in front of someone who's not cool?]
[As expected, men all like what they can't get. These things aren't important; what matters is that I got the key.]
The emperor played with the key in his hand, and after listening to Yu Yiluo's thoughts, he handed the key to Qingfeng and ordered him to ask Concubine Shu to make a copy for him as soon as possible, and then take the key back to Yang Xin.
Prince Yueqing didn't know that his important things were missing, so he changed his clothes after returning home.
It was only when I went to bed at night that I realized my purse was missing.
He stood up suddenly, his face changed. In his purse was the key to Yao Xuan's shackles. The secret room no longer felt safe to him, and he was still waiting to open the mechanism to transfer Yao Xuan to another place.
Otherwise I always feel uneasy.
Could it have fallen into the lake?
…
Yang Xin got the key again and rushed to the lake.
When the King of Yueqing knows that the purse is missing, he will definitely rush to the lake.
She rushed to the lake before King Yueqing. The lake was deserted at night, and the wind blew the willow branches, making them flutter in the night breeze.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"
The subordinates followed behind the King of Yueqing, wondering why he was not sleeping at night and was running to the lake.
If it was a secret meeting with Yang Xin, then the prince's expression seemed wrong.
"I lost my purse. The purse was made by the princess." Prince Yueqing said as he walked.
Yang Xin heard the conversation between the two behind the willow tree and walked out from behind.
She originally wanted to throw the purse into the water, but now it seems that she can't just throw it away, nor can she say that she picked up the purse, otherwise it will be difficult to avoid suspicion.
Why not show off in front of King Yueqing?
"Your Highness," Yang Xin walked out openly and said directly, "I heard that Your Highness's purse was lost?"
As she spoke, she looked towards Prince Yueqing and explained softly.
"I didn't mean to eavesdrop. I just realized my earrings were missing before I went to bed, so I came back to look for them."
During the day she dressed as a servant and wore nothing on her ears, but she did wear earrings on her body.
"Has Miss Yang been found?" King Yueqing looked at Yang Xin's frank expression, and his doubts faded a little.
"Found it," Yang Xin took out the earrings, "What does the prince's purse look like? Since I've found it, I can help the prince find it."
Prince Yueqing wanted to refuse, but Yang Xin had already walked to the lake and put one foot in the water.
"It's faster for three of us to search together than for two. What's more, it's something left behind by the princess. If the prince can't find it, he probably won't be able to go to bed if he returns."
The King of Yueqing described the pattern of the purse, and Yang Xin jumped into the lake without hesitation.
The three of them searched the lake for a while. Yang Xin estimated that it was almost time, so he held up his purse and said, "Found it."
She has delayed for so long, the emperor's secret guards should have succeeded.
"It's this," the three men came out of the water, and Prince Yueqing looked at the purse that was lost and found, as if he had found his long-lost son.
"Since this purse is so important, Your Highness should keep it well."
Yang Xin handed the purse to Prince Yueqing and turned to leave.
Prince Yueqing took the purse and quickly checked whether the things inside were still there. When he found that they were still there, he quickly caught up with Yang Xin.
"I will send Miss Yang back."
Yang Xin refused without even turning back.
Looking at Yang Xin's disappearing back, Prince Yueqing was a little confused about her.
He can easily tell whether other women are interested in him or not.
As for Yang Xin, after having known her for so long, he was not sure what Yang Xin thought of him.
If it was just a simple cooperation, Yang Xin would sometimes worry about him. If it was said that she was interested in him, Yang Xin would be indifferent to his teasing.
Is this what it means to play hard to get?
Then he had to admit that Yang Xin did have some means.
The night wind blew on his wet clothes, and the coolness spread throughout his body. Only then did Prince Yueqing break away from his thoughts.
…
In the Yueqing Palace.
Qingfeng successfully got the key and sneaked into Prince Yueqing's room, opened the mechanism to carry Yao Xuan out, and then restored the mechanism to the state where Prince Yueqing could not open it.
Yao Xuan was already skinny, and Qingfeng easily avoided the guards of Yueqing Palace with her on his back. Just as he jumped over the courtyard wall and jumped down, he heard footsteps coming.
The footsteps were made by Prince Yueqing and his subordinates. Prince Yueqing subconsciously looked towards the courtyard wall, but it was pitch black and there was nothing on it.
The subordinates also looked over and saw nothing.
"Your Highness, I will fetch some hot water for you to bathe and change your clothes."
