She nodded to the two of them, and she couldn't deny that she felt secretly happy the moment she saw them.
It's not because this can rule out the possibility that the city defense map is fake, but because it can prove that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no intention of plotting against her.
"I just came back from leaving the palace. Why don't the Second Prince's wife and Miss Qin stay a little longer?"
Du Shuyan smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Concubine. We are here to send Luo'er back to the palace, and now we have to hurry out of the palace. We will come and bother you another day when we are free."
Qin Qianqian looked at the two of them and finally chose not to speak. It was better for her not to interrupt the conversation of smart people to avoid saying the wrong thing.
"good."
After the two of them left the East Palace, Qin Qianqian asked the doubts in her heart.
"Why did Sister Shuyan say she was sending Luo'er back to the palace, but didn't tell us that we knew she gave things to others?"
Du Shuyan chuckled, "There's no need for us to point it out. How can we compare to her own unwavering belief in what she has figured out?"
She said she would send the little princess back to the palace, but they went to the East Palace together. Wasn't this making Feng Hongyu doubt their true intentions?
Just as Du Shuyan thought, Feng Hongyu didn't believe that they were just sending Yu Yiluo back to the palace.
If you really want to send Yu Yiluo back to the palace, you can just leave at the palace gate. Why do you want to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Isn't it just to tell His Royal Highness what you saw today?
Fortunately, she had already thought of a countermeasure. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince tested her, she could respond calmly.
"Concubine, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants you to come in."
His thoughts were interrupted by Lin Qi at the door. Feng Hongyu came to his senses and walked into the main hall.
The prince was helping Yu Yiluo peel some fruit. When he heard her greeting, he raised his head and said gently, "Stand up and sit down."
"Thank you, Your Highness," Feng Hongyu walked to the chair and sat down, unable to tell the prince's true emotions.
"I heard from Madam that you went out today?"
The prince was peeling grapes seriously, and his voice was normal, as if he was just chatting.
But Feng Hongyu knew that although he seemed to be chatting casually, he was actually testing her.
"Your Highness, I heard that Tianqi has a wide variety of fabrics, so I thought of going out and picking one out to make some clothes for my father."
[He still has some sense, he's not panicking. It seems he had already thought of a plan before coming here.]
Yu Yiluo took the grapes handed to her by the prince and put them into her mouth. She blinked and said, "There are many kinds of cloth in the palace."
The prince took the handkerchief handed to him by Lin Qi and wiped his hands. "Luo'er is right. Next time, just tell Madam Chang what kind of cloth you want to choose."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
The prince did not continue the topic and turned to look at Lin Qi next to him.
"What did the two of them say?"
"Your Highness, they both said they left their posts because they had stomachaches."
When Feng Hongyu heard this, he immediately pricked up his ears.
"stomachache?"
Lin Qi nodded. "I also thought it was too strange, so I went to ask the kitchen. I found out that the new chef mixed two dishes that shouldn't be cooked together, which caused most people to feel uncomfortable that day."
No wonder there weren't many people on her way to the study that day. So that's how it was.
"I understand. Since nothing is missing, I'll fine them one month's salary."
"Yes, I'll do it right away."
Lin Qi bowed and retreated.
The Crown Prince then looked at Feng Hongyu and said, "If Concubine has nothing else to do, please go back."
Feng Hongyu stood up, bowed, and turned to leave.
Returning to the yard, she called her maid.
"Please help me keep an eye on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Previously, Feng Hongyu used the excuse that she was attracted to the prince to ask the maid to help her pay more attention to the prince's movements, so the maid did not think much about it and promised:
"Don't worry, Concubine. I will help you keep an eye on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so that you and His Royal Highness can have a mutual understanding as soon as possible."
Mutual appreciation?
Feng Hongyu smiled silently. Is it possible?
…
After Feng Hongyu left, the prince said softly:
"When did Luo'er find out that I knew about the secret agents of the Li Kingdom in the capital?"
Yu Yiluo raised her chin slightly and said, "Of course I rely on my smart brain."
"Brother Crown Prince, you must be using this trick because you know there's a hidden spy."
The prince saw her smug look and jokingly said, "Luo'er is so smart, it would be a shame if she doesn't sit in your brother's seat."
The smile froze on Yu Yiluo’s face in an instant.
[I'm getting a little carried away. I'm sitting here because I'm bored.]
[This hot potato is more suitable for my brother, the Crown Prince. People like me are better off just eating and waiting to die.]
"My intelligence is far inferior to that of my brother, the Crown Prince."
Yu Yiluo flattered, "Look, the Crown Prince knows how to turn the tables on the opponent, but I didn't know that."
At this time, Lin Qi walked in.
"Your Highness, I will do as you say."
The prince responded softly, "Go do one more thing. Go check that cloth shop. You'll know what to do, right?"
Lin Qi met his gaze, understood the meaning in his eyes, and said with a bow, "I'll go check it out right away."
[Ah, now this drama is truly over. First, I'll leave many loopholes for Feng Hongyu to doubt, and then fill them in, making her firmly believe that the city defense map is real. The Crown Prince is worthy of being the Crown Prince.]
[No wonder they kept these secret agents around. What a foresighted plan.]
When the maid saw Lin Qi leaving the main hall, she lowered her head and ran to tell Feng Hongyu about this.
The last trace of doubt in Feng Hongyu's heart was completely cleared away by these words.
It seems that all this is really a coincidence and not something planned by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
The maid looked at Feng Hongyu's smile and asked in confusion, "Could it be that Guard Lin left the palace because he was suspicious of you, Concubine? Why are you so happy, Concubine?"
"I am from the Li Kingdom. It's not surprising that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has someone investigate."
This proves that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really did not put anyone under surveillance of her, otherwise, how could anything she did escape the Crown Prince's eyes?
…
Yu Yiluo was thinking about the training puppets, and soon left the East Palace and went to the imperial study.
The emperor saw her come in, but pretended not to notice and continued to deal with the memorials.
"Daddy, guess what I came to you for?"
Yu Yiluo walked up to the emperor and asked mysteriously.
The emperor refused to cooperate and said, "No guessing."
"The training puppet has been made. I went to see it today. Daddy ordered that it can be used to train new soldiers for my uncle tomorrow."
The emperor put down the memorial in his hand and glanced at her.
"When you have something to do, remember your father. When you have nothing to do, go out every day."
It’s better to be a child, or learn to walk slowly.
Yu Yiluo tugged at the emperor's robe, "Daddy, isn't he curious about what it looks like? This was made with the participation of my fourth brother."
"I'm curious. I want to see how your fourth brother, this piece of rubbish, managed to climb up the wall."
[How mean! Fourth Brother is sitting at home and still gets scolded.]
"I heard that you encountered some bad guys when you left the palace today?"
The emperor looked serious when he talked about this.
