Even if this matter is brought up, no results will be achieved.
Zong Zhengchen has been investigating for so many years, and it is not something that can be figured out in just a few days. He can only take one step at a time, wait and see, and let things take their course.
Return home.
He went to handle official business, while Qin Ye went to visit Yun Ying.
After a few days of recuperation, Yunying's health gradually improved, and as she had a good physical foundation, she recovered particularly quickly.
"Princess, I'm sorry for causing you trouble because of my affairs. From now on, I won't trouble you again."
Yunying is a very straightforward and independent girl. She would rather handle everything on her own than trouble others.
Qin Ye checked her pulse and snorted:
"Okay, if you don't bother me, then I won't bother you either. From now on, you don't have to serve me. Go wherever you want."
"princess!"
Yun Ying was shocked.
She had secretly vowed to protect the princess for the rest of her life, so how could she leave?
Looking at the princess's cold and hard face, she gave in and said obediently with her head down:
"I understand. I will not hide anything from you in the future. I will tell you everything, including what happened, the difficulties and secrets."
At this point, she suddenly remembered something.
"By the way, Princess, there is one thing that I find very strange, but I have never mentioned it..."
"What's the matter?" Qin Ye asked.
"that is……"
Yun Ying opened her mouth and thought for a while, "That is... every night, at two or three o'clock in the morning, the secret guard named Han Ying would enter Hanfeng Courtyard. Do you and the prince have anything important to do at night?"
Qin Ye: “???”
"The first time I saw him, I thought he might be dealing with an emergency. But the second, third, fourth time... Han Ying would go there every night." Yun Ying frowned, her face full of confusion.
Qin Ye's eyes suddenly sank.
Han Ying would enter her and Zong Zhengchen’s room every night?
She slept so soundly at night that she didn't even notice it?
Zong Zhengchen never mentioned this to her?
Zong Zhengchen must have known, why did he hide it from her? Why did Han Ying come every night? What was she doing here? Was there any secret that she couldn't know?
"Yunying, are you sure you didn't see it wrong?" she said in a deep voice.
"No, Princess." Yun Ying shook her head. "I am a light sleeper and I like to practice martial arts at night. I saw it with my own eyes, so I can't be wrong. And I also heard Han Feng call that woman 'sister'."
It’s Han Ying.
That's right.
Qin Ye's gaze gradually became deep.
After a long while, Fang said, "I know. Just pretend you don't know about this matter and don't mention it to anyone."
"Yes, I won't say anything."
night.
Hanfeng Courtyard.
The candlelight was dim, and two bodies were entangled on the bed. Even the temperature became warm, with light sweat and heavy breathing.
After the game, she was so tired that she was breathing heavily and wanted to rest, but he had no intention of letting her go and tormented her again.
An hour later.
She was too tired to open her eyes. No matter how she refused, it was useless. The man's attack was still fierce, like an energetic wolf, becoming more and more courageous as the fight went on.
Time passes by little by little.
She finally couldn't hold on any longer and fell into a deep sleep. The man's movements gradually stopped until she stopped moving.
He tucked the quilt in for her, wrapped her in his outer robe, and got out of bed.
Squeak——
In the quiet night, the door was gently pushed open from the outside, and Han Ying walked in with very light steps:
"master."
The room was dark without a candle. On the couch, the eyelashes of the woman who was originally sleeping were trembling slightly...
