When the imperial edict arrived at the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion, Ke Yihan was also there. He was originally asked to take the Prince of Qing to tour the capital. Now that he was missing, he could only help send people out to look for him.
He was still frightened by what happened last night.
He didn't know whether the Fifth Princess had betrayed him, but he still hoped that she could keep the secret, otherwise their marriage would be shameful.
Just as he had thought of a reason and was about to send someone to the palace to plead for the Fifth Princess, the imperial edict arrived.
He never thought that the Fifth Princess would actually tell others about him like this. Now His Majesty must be angry with him. What should he do?
I was panicking and finally had to go to my grandmother for help.
Although my grandmother is old, she has a clear understanding of things and will definitely be able to help me find a solution.
He came to the backyard, but didn't expect to see unexpected people there.
Rong Xi was waiting on the road he had to pass. No one told her this morning that the Ninth Princess was here. Could she be a guest invited by her grandmother?
"Meet the Ninth Princess."
"Lord Ke is truly in a refined mood. Even at this hour, he remains so calm. I truly admire him."
Ke Yihan felt guilty. Although His Majesty had issued an imperial decree to take away his title of Marquis of Jing'an, he could only hold on even though the reason was clearly stated.
"I wonder why the Ninth Princess is in my house?"
Rong Xi walked over and looked at him with a beautiful smile.
Ke Yihan looked at her and felt that something had changed about her. She became more beautiful.
His heart was pounding, and the next moment Rong Xi kicked him far away.
Ke Yihan has martial arts skills, and his martial arts skills are quite good because he has been on the battlefield. Rong Xi suddenly attacked just now, and he was indeed caught off guard. He just didn't expect that the Ninth Princess was so strong. It seems that she is not an ordinary person.
"Ninth Princess, what are you doing?"
He was really angry, and his face looked frighteningly cold.
"Of course..." Rong Xi turned his wrist, and a trace of mental power entered Ke Yihan's body, "Ke Yihan, take your men to Beggar Alley in the north of the city to find Prince Ji Zhi of the Qing Kingdom and lock him up."
Ke Yihan was very vigilant and almost failed once. It was only after Rong Xi added some medicine that the man finally obeyed.
The people who followed behind to protect Rong Xi were stunned. This was really the Madam. How could she kick someone out with such a petite body?
They silently remembered in their hearts that it was best not to offend the lady, otherwise the lady's move would be enough to lose their heads.
Ke Yihan looked at Rong Xi with empty eyes, and Rong Xi gave the order again.
"Forget you saw me today."
Ke Yihan left, and the guards protecting Rong Xi felt a chill in their hearts. What did this mean? He had forgotten and left just like that! Had they also been treated like this by the Madam, and just forgotten?
The few people who were still thinking looked up and saw the lady in front of them.
Their smiles are uglier than their tears.
"Let's go back."
.
Chen Ze'an and his men searched for the person in the capital for half a month, and found him just when the emperor was about to lose his temper and the Qing envoy was about to collapse.
When he was found, he had many wounds on his body and was almost dying. The chief judge of the Imperial Hospital even threatened that if it was one day later, not even the Golden Immortal could save him.
The emperor was finally relieved to see that no one was dead. This time he was really glad that Chen Ze'an was there, otherwise war between the two countries would be inevitable.
"My dear, where was this person found? Do you know who helped the Prince of Qing?"
Shen Ze'an still had a calm demeanor, sitting down with a ring on his hand.
"Your Majesty, my people were found in a basement in an alley in the north of the city. After much investigation, the only person who had been there in the past few days was Ke Yihan."
"What!!"
When Shen Zean said this, the emperor had to believe it.
He had the motive to commit the crime, and he also had the ability and opportunity to do it. I think he did it for Yu'er.
He had made up his mind that this person could not be kept any longer, otherwise there would be disaster in the future.
"I understand. I will make the rest of the arrangements. Thank you for your hard work during this period."
After Shen Ze'an left, he heard someone report that Ke Yihan was taken away by people from the Dali Temple. Sitting in the carriage, he couldn't understand why Rong Xi wanted to deal with Ke Yihan. As far as he knew, they had no disputes before.
Even the first time we met was at a reception.
"Someone come."
"The servant is here."
"Go check what happened to the lady this year."
"Yes, Lord Governor."
It was already evening when Shen Ze'an returned to the mansion. He walked into the courtyard and saw Rong Xi immediately. She was sitting quietly on the chaise longue in the courtyard, enjoying the cool breeze. Threads of sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, casting mottled shadows on her, making her look like a fairy descending to earth.
Her skin is as white as snow and as delicate as silk, and her slightly rosy cheeks are like blooming peach blossoms, delicate and beautiful.
Baohuan beside her was reading a storybook to her, and a little maidservant was trying to put some food into her mouth from time to time.
Seeing that she had her eyes half closed, Shen Ze'an quietly waved to the little maid who was feeding her, signaling her to leave, and then handed the food in her hand to him.
After taking the food, Rong Xi just opened his mouth, and he put the snack in his hand so easily.
Rong Xi smelled a familiar fragrance and knew who was coming.
"I want to drink tea."
The tea was quickly fed into Rong Xi's mouth, and the light kiss from the fingertips made Rong Xi confirm who this person was.
"Chestnut cake."
Hand it over.
"Peach Blossom Pastry."
