Chapter 10 Chapter 10 The two were recognized as husband and wife
King Yin's residence? He Anting's face was full of excitement, as if he had swallowed something that blocked his throat, unable to move up or down.
Qingwu knew his master's thoughts best.
Who is King Yin? When the late emperor was still alive, he was the most popular and favored prince.
So everyone thought that King Yin was the last crown prince.
Even though the emperor treated him like an ordinary brother over the years, he was still wary of King Yin.
The master is involved with their family? It’s best not to.
He Anting looked calm, not as furious as Qing Wu had imagined.
"Master...that maid?"
"Keep it, I will ask her in person. As for that woman, continue the investigation." He was very suspicious and was determined to get everything out of the question to make sure there was no possibility that the other party was lying.
"yes."
Jing Yao had never felt that even sleeping with the prince would be so difficult. She wrapped herself tightly in the quilt, but had to leave a gap to be wary of Ye Yunzheng. Fortunately, the bed was quite spacious, and Ye Yunzheng was relatively well-behaved, so he didn't lose his temper.
Jing Yao was too nervous. Her life was at stake. She felt like she was about to be caught cheating. In fear, she almost hated He Anting in her heart.
She hated the maid who locked her up even more.
Not only that, she was even afraid of that thing. To be fair, she was also... experienced, Jing Yao thought, and couldn't help blushing.
It was also strange. None of the many times she had met the prince before was as impressive as this time with He Anting. Those scenes were so clear that she could recall them accurately.
Why did she think of him again? Jing Yao sighed and said, "Don't think about it, don't think about it. If you think about it again, there will be nothing between them in the future. He will marry a wife in the future, and she will only be the prince's concubine."
Ye Yunzheng sensed Jing Yao's restlessness and asked gently, "Are you feeling uncomfortable? Can I rub it for you?"
Jing Yao shook her head vaguely, but her eyes were a little hot and the guilt in her heart became deeper.
The prince was actually nice to her, but she...
Jing Yao was lost in thought until the second half of the night when she fell into a drowsy sleep.
He Anting also felt uncomfortable because his dreams became more and more outrageous.
The scene of that night could not be shaken off his mind. He felt disgusted and performed a set of sword techniques in the yard, beating up Qing Wu again. He returned to the house to take a shower only after his clothes were soaked.
Qing Wu covered his abdomen with a distorted expression. It was so scary. This was simply an old man who had started having sex and was unsatisfied, so he took it out on him.
The red marks on He Anting's chest were still there when he took a shower. He washed quickly and turned off the lights and went to bed early.
In the dream, as usual, there were swaying curtains and a woman with her face covered, leaving only her eyes.
His whole body tensed up, and the big hand ghost opened the veil, and he saw the woman's face.
The small, snow-white jaw was slightly raised, and the messy hair was wet with sweat and stuck to the temples, collarbone, and even the snow-white clouds.
The waist is soft and slender and can be held by two large hands.
The woman's face was very familiar, even particularly shocking. He Anting's pupils suddenly constricted in shock. He felt something tighten and his whole body trembled.
Then he suddenly opened his eyes in the darkness.
When he regained consciousness, his snow-white pajamas were slightly open, and a thin layer of sweat seeped out. He opened his mouth and gasped for breath, but his heart was filled with unbearable horror.
The face in the dream actually overlapped with...Jing's face.
He Anting thought calmly, his brows full of annoyance.
He exhaled a foul breath, his brows gloomy, and the eyes of the woman he was making love with were pitiful. Perhaps that was why he thought of Jing.
It is said that dreams and reality are the opposite of each other. He hates such coquettish and frivolous women the most, so this dream appeared.
This must be the case. He Anting calmed down and moved his body, but suddenly he froze.
When did his needs become so high?
He Anting felt a little embarrassed. Not only did he dream about the unspeakable things with his brother-in-law and concubine, but he also... If he didn't know himself well enough, he would have suspected that he was also such a rebellious person.
He stood up with a sullen face and went into the bathroom.
Three days passed in a flash, and soon it was time to return.
In the next two days, due to He Anting's poor condition, the number of prey dropped sharply. Lingyun Earl's son Ye Yunzheng took the lead, only one step behind the emperor and King Yin.
The emperor was very impressed and gave him a bow left by the previous emperor, and asked him to accompany him on the return journey.
The two families of He Ye were filled with joy. The imperial bow was given to them and they accompanied them on the carriage. It was such a great show of love and honor.
Ye Yunzheng and the He couple were congratulated by everyone. Jing Yao watched the two of them playing the piano and the zither in harmony from behind, and then retreated to a place where no one could see them. This scene happened to be seen by He Anting.
His dazed look makes people mistakenly think that he is sad and lost.
"Ah." Suddenly a soft cry was heard, and He Anting glanced over casually.
Xue Ningzhen accidentally twisted her foot when she was walking down the stairs. When she felt He Anting's gaze, she bit her lower lip in panic and looked away as if avoiding him.
He had observed over the past two days that only Xue Ningzhen would blush and avoid him when she saw him, the meaning of which was self-evident.
He Anting was a little annoyed and even felt repulsed.
An irresponsible man is no different from an animal, not to mention that the other party is also a victim.
But he really couldn't feel any pity. Once the He family was tied to King Yin, wouldn't it increase King Yin's power?
The reasons for those assassinations have not yet been found out, so how can we know whether it is related to King Yin?
He had suspected that this was a trap set by King Yin.
But he investigated three generations of the palace maid, and no matter how he interrogated her, everything pointed to the fact that this was just a coincidence.
He Anting rarely knew what to do.
He Qingwan glanced at Jing Yao who was about to get on the carriage and ran over: "Hey, wait a minute."
Jing Yao turned around and looked at her suspiciously: "Fourth Miss, what's the matter?"
"Tomorrow at 9:00 PM, you and I will go to Yuqingfang. You are not allowed to be late, and you are not allowed to not go. Do you understand?"
He Qingwan's sudden request made Jing Yao very alert: "Fourth Miss, I still need to ask the young lady about this matter first."
"Don't ask me, I've already told my sister. If you dare not go, I'll tell mother that you're disrespectful to me." He Qingwan was very domineering and gave Jing Yao a direct order.
Jing Yao frowned and hesitated.
There must be something wrong with He Qingwan asking her to join them. They are not familiar with each other and they are celebrating a holiday. What if they are doing something bad and she is implicated?
But she didn't dare not go. She had seen He Qingwan's ability to confuse right and wrong, and she didn't dare to offend any of these nobles.
Jing Yao let out a long sigh.
On the second day, she pretended to ask He Qingyun for permission, but she kept telling He Qingyun not to agree. However, He Qingyun probably really got the information from her sister, so she agreed very readily.
As a last resort, Jing Yao had to leave.
She didn't expect that He Qingwan's carriage was already waiting at the door. Jing Yao got in the carriage, knelt down, and said honestly: "Fourth Miss."
He Qingwan glanced at him and curled her lips in displeasure: "You can't even behave yourself when you go out."
Jing Yao pretended not to hear and let it go in one ear and out the other. She knew that He Qingwan was just looking for her to bully.
Yuqingfang was the largest shop in the city of Bianjing. It sold all kinds of items, including brushes, ink, paper, inkstone, rouge, powder, and even rare items from foreign countries.
Jing Yao didn't dare to ask her what she was doing there, but just followed her at a distance.
It was obvious that He Qingwan was browsing a shop selling men's accessories such as sword tassels. Jing Yao guessed that she might be choosing a gift for He Anting.
He Qingwan was indeed chosen by a man, but it was not her brother, but the young master Qi Yue. Her cheeks flushed slightly. She couldn't ask her acquaintance to choose a gift for an outsider, and it would be too tempting for people to ask her alone. Jing was stupid and dull, and an honest person, so it would be best to use her as a shield.
The two of them were strolling around when He Qingwan suddenly glanced at a very hidden place and stealthily reached out and picked it up: "Hey, do you recognize this?"
Jing Yao took a hesitant look at it. The thing in her hand seemed to be... a cylindrical jade object, slightly curved, like a horn.
"What...what is this?"
Jing Yao didn't recognize it, so naturally she didn't think anything wrong. It was just that the thing was placed quite secretly, and it had different materials, shapes, and sizes.
He Qingwan smiled and said, "Look at you, you're such a country bumpkin, so ignorant. This is for warming your hands, take it."
She stuffed the thing into Jing Yao's arms and started walking around again. Jing Yao held the "jade artifact" in confusion and did not dare to disobey her orders.
He Qingwan was extremely proud. You idiot, look how she makes a fool of herself.
"Wait for me here, I'll go pay, don't leave." He Qingwan instructed her.
Jing Yao said "oh" and stood aside obediently. But for some reason, passers-by all wanted to look at her, and their eyes were either weird or teasing, which made Jing Yao feel very uncomfortable.
He Qingwan quietly slipped away with the things she had paid for, feeling proud as she walked, but she accidentally bumped into a figure.
"Brother...Brother." He Qingwan's face froze after she looked up, a guilty look flashing in her eyes. Fortunately, He Anting was busy and had no time to worry about her, so he just perfunctorily said, "What are you doing here?"
"I... I'm here to browse the shops, but why is my brother here if he's not in the government office?"
"I'm here to investigate the assassin." The last assassin was in Fayun Temple, and the one before that was in Yuqingfang.
He Anting nodded and ignored her, walking straight inside. He Qingwan's heart skipped a beat, and without thinking much, she quickly picked up her things and ran away, not even leaving the carriage behind.
He Anting entered Yuqingfang with a cold expression. Tracking down the assassin was not his direct responsibility, but he was very anxious. As for the reason, He Anting actually didn't want to admit it in his heart.
He glanced out of the corner of his eye and met a pair of eyes.
Jing Yao quickly looked away, her scalp tingling. She prayed that He Anting didn't want to pay attention to her and just left in disdain, but unfortunately, the tall figure gradually approached.
"What are you doing standing here like an idiot?"
He Anting thought, after all, she is his brother-in-law's concubine, and also his cousin. Why is she standing there stupidly in such a crowded place like this? Doesn't she think there are enough covetous eyes on her?
"I... I'm waiting for the fourth lady." She whispered, the object in her hand was hidden by her wide sleeves and could not be seen clearly.
In one sentence, He Anting understood why his sister was acting so sneaky just now. His face was gloomy. She had probably run away by now. He Anting felt annoyed that he had to escort a big trouble.
"Let's go." He really wanted to ignore it.
Jing Yao uttered an "ah," not understanding what was going on: "The fourth lady asked me to wait for her."
He is so gullible that he believes everything others say.
He Anting said coldly: "She's gone."
Jing Yao was startled and her face turned pale. This place was three streets away from the Bo's Mansion, and it would take her several hours to walk there.
Jing Yao didn't expect He Qingwan to trick her like this. She still felt a little uncomfortable and prepared to leave with He Anting in a depressed mood.
"Hey, girl, you haven't paid yet." The shopkeeper stopped her quickly. He had been watching her for a long time and found that she had been standing here for a long time without paying.
When Jing Yao was stopped by him, the object accidentally fell from her sleeve.
He Anting's eyes dropped, and his usually steady expression turned grim and angry: "You..."
The shopkeeper said to He Anting, "Sir, your wife has been standing here for a long time. She must be waiting for you. Please pay for her right away."
He Anting was stunned when he heard this, but Jing Yao felt embarrassed and her face turned red like a chili pepper.
Not only were the two of them recognized as a couple, the object that fell was called Mr. Horn, and it was... an obscene device, mostly used by women.
Jing Yao stuttered, "How much...how much?"
"Eighty taels."
Jing Yao widened her eyes. It was so expensive, she didn’t want it.
"So many people are watching you holding this thing. It's a private thing. Once you touch it, you can't give it up." The shopkeeper said quickly, fearing that she would regret it.
Jing Yao had no money, let alone that much money. She didn't know what was so precious that she had to pay for just touching it, but this was clearly what He Qingwan wanted.
"This, this, this is not mine, sir. This belongs to Fourth Miss He." She quickly handed it to He Anting as if it were a hot potato.
A vein on He Anting's forehead twitched.
Does she have any shame to lie?
He even had to pay for this sex toy.
