Then, it would not be impossible for Shen Tingsi to stay in this woman's body for a while longer, giving her enough time to complete her plan of revenge against the Jiang family.
But once she has taken revenge, he will definitely take back his body.
Shen Tingsi walked out of the house and called Tangyuan, who was weaving a flower basket in the yard, to his side. He whispered some instructions in her ear and then said:
"Go ahead and do as I say."
…
When Tangyuan arrived at the palace, Tinglan came out to receive her and told her that the prince was not there.
She raised her head and asked:
"Where has the prince gone?"
Ting Lan looked at the round-faced girl who was almost two heads shorter than him, paused and said:
"have no idea."
Tangyuan frowned. Although she had no evidence, she just felt that the guard with a ferocious look on his face was lying.
Could it be that the Ninth Prince was going to meet someone, and he didn't intend to let his young lady know who he was going to meet?
Could it be that Miss Chu?
No, Miss Chu is now living in the Marquis Wen Ning's Mansion. If the Ninth Prince wants to see her, he must go to the Marquis' Mansion.
But when she came, she had not heard that the prince had arrived.
Thinking of this, Tang Yuan felt relieved and asked again:
"Brother Guard, can you tell me when the prince will be back?"
Ting Lan looked at her silly look, and the words "no comment" were on the tip of his tongue, but he temporarily changed it to a slightly softer tone:
"have no idea."
Tangyuan was depressed. She felt like she was talking to a mute person. Even after clapping her hands hard several times, there was only a slight sound, but the other person still replied with a muffled "I don't know".
Ting Lan saw that her round face was wrinkled and whispered:
"Please go back, girl."
Tang Yuan shook his head vigorously, "No, I want to stay and wait for the prince to return home. Our young lady has something very important to ask him!"
Ting Lan frowned slightly.
Could it be that something happened in the Wen Ning Marquis Mansion again?
He called a servant and asked him to bring the dumplings inside and sit down.
When Tangyuan disappeared from his sight, he blew a whistle, and a falcon landed on his arm.
The guard next to him presented him with special pen, ink and letter paper. He wrote a simple sentence and stuffed the letter paper into the mailbox on the falcon's leg, then released the falcon.
The falcon flew to Prince Zhan's palace.
Jiang Xiancao was standing in Shen Yubai's study, looking at the early spring scenery in the courtyard outside the window.
Behind her, Shen Yubai was still playing chess with himself, and said softly as he made his move:
"Do you suspect Chu Yushu?"
"Well, her identity is very consistent with the person we are looking for. Moreover, I used the purse containing Jiang Huaizhu's hair to test her. She had clearly touched the purse, but when Princess Jingyi was on her way to bring it back to me, someone had switched the purse with her."
Jiang Xiancao turned around and said in a deep voice:
"If she's fine, why would anyone bother doing something like this?"
"really."
The smile on Shen Yubai's lips deepened. "I will find a way to investigate in the palace to find out who is behind this. What are you going to do next?"
Jiang Xiancao lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then said calmly:
"Let it be."
She was not planning to test Chu Yuxu a second time in such a short time, because the fact that her purse had been replaced already explained the problem.
Because Chu Yuxu and her people must have been prepared.
Anything she did regarding Chu Yusu's identity would be a thankless task.
After all, the matter of soul possession is completely beyond common sense, and it is difficult for her to find evidence that can convince everyone to prove that "Chu Yusu" is just a puppet of Tianming Pavilion whose body is occupied by the dead Jiang Huaizhu.
However, she did not question Chu Yusu's identity and could still disrupt Tianming Pavilion's plan.
"Now the Queen and the Crown Prince are suspicious that I want to marry Chu Yushu, right? Then I will make their worries come true."
Jiang Xiancao smiled and said, "The Crown Prince is only willing to give Chu Yushu the position of concubine, so I will use my position as principal wife to compete with him. Uncle, what do you think my nephew's chances of winning are?"
Shen Yubai had just picked up a black piece. Upon hearing this, he rubbed the black piece with his calloused fingertips for a long time before slowly speaking:
"The Chu family will be tempted by the title of Ninth Prince's Consort, but Tianming Pavilion won't."
Jiang Xiancao raised an eyebrow. "Yeah, for some reason, Tianming Pavilion seems to dislike me. Instead, they really like the gentle and kind Crown Prince. They seem to be certain that the Crown Prince, and not another prince, will be the one to sit on the throne in the future."
Shen Yubai raised his head, his enchanting eyes staring at her quietly.
Although he did not actively release any malice, these eyes that saw through the world and the coldness of human hearts still gave her a strong sense of oppression.
She stood there calmly, letting Shen Yubai stare at her.
After a while, Chen Yubai sighed softly and then changed the subject:
"Don't talk about these people. The emperor's uncle doesn't want you to really marry Chu Yushu."
Jiang Xiancao's smile remained unchanged. She looked down at the handsome man sitting on her left and asked softly:
"I don't understand why the emperor's uncle doesn't want Xiao Jiuer to get married?"
Chen Yubai also looked at her, his eyes gleaming with a smile that could make a woman lose her mind, "Because, the emperor's uncle can't bear to part with Xiao Jiuer."
Perhaps it was because his appearance was too charming and his eyes were too alluring, the three normal words "Xiao Jiuer" sounded too ambiguous and intimate when they came out of his mouth. At that moment, Jiang Xiancao's heart beat faster.
She suppressed the uncomfortable reaction and coughed.
"Xiao Jiu'er doesn't understand what the emperor's uncle means."
