Wang Simeng stopped and turned around. She saw two men calling her.
A man in a long blue robe, who appeared to be around twenty-four or twenty-five years old, had a refined appearance and a gentle smile. But the calculating glint in his eyes did not escape Wang Simeng's notice.
A man in a blue robe, around twenty-one or twenty-two years old, had a dashing and debonair appearance, with a hint of disdain mixed in his innocent eyes.
Wang Simeng carefully observed the two people and found that neither of them seemed like an ordinary person, but they just didn't give off a likable vibe.
"These two were probably plotting against me just now, weren't they? They're obviously no good." Wang Simeng thought to herself, but on her face, she pretended to be clueless as she looked at the two of them.
"Hmm? Is there something you two need?" Wang Simeng asked innocently.
The man in the blue robe smiled slightly: "My surname is Qin, and my given name is Zhiyuan. May I ask your surname, young lady?"
"Is there something you need?" Wang Simeng didn't answer, but continued to ask.
“We just saw you punishing the female swindler. You were so brave and clever, so we wanted to make friends with you,” Qin Yuan said with a charming smile.
Ha! My smile must have captivated you, woman, right?
Qin Yuan secretly observed Wang Simeng's expression with his eyes.
On the other side, in the Regent's Palace study.
"Master, my men have discovered that the Crown Prince of Qin, along with the Second Prince and the Third Princess of Qin, have arrived in the capital in disguise," a guard in black said, bowing his head.
Disguise?
Hehe~
Mo Beichen gave a cold laugh.
"Alright, keep a close watch on them and see what they're up to in the capital."
"Master, I suspect it's because of Miss Wang's things. They're on East Street right now, and Miss Wang is also on East Street..." the black-clad guard said, bowing his head.
"What? Why didn't you say so earlier!" Mo Beichen glanced coldly at the black-clad guard, then quickly got up and rushed outside.
He's going to find Wang Simeng!
———
When Wang Simeng saw Qin Yuan's smile, she shuddered.
Holy crap? Is this guy crazy? Why is that smile so lewd?
Qin Yuan was surprised to see that Wang Simeng did not have the blushing, shy, and dazed expression he had imagined.
Huh? This woman is quite interesting.
In the Qin state, I, the crown prince, am handsome and dashing. If I were to give a woman a smile like that, wouldn't she blush and feel shy?
Qin Yuan had thought a lot into his mind, but his face still wore an impeccable smile as he asked Wang Simeng.
"Girl, what's wrong?"
"Ah! I'm fine." Wang Simeng didn't want to look at this greasy man anymore, so she turned to look at the blue-clad boy next to him.
The young man smiled slightly at her, a hint of roguishness in his smile.
Wang Simeng had no feelings for the two of them and decided to let them off the hook for now.
Therefore, he simply nodded to Qin Yuan and the other person without saying a word. He then turned and left with Xiaobai, Shuang'er, and Cui'er.
"Young lady, we really mean you no harm, we just want to be friends with you." Qin Yuan quickly stopped Wang Simeng.
Damn, these two are never going to stop! I let you off the hook, but you don't want it. Well, don't blame me for taking action against you.
Wang Simeng lowered her head, a mischievous smile playing on her lips.
"Miss!" Shuang'er and Cui'er saw the two blocking her way and quickly reached out to block Wang Simeng, both showing serious expressions.
Seeing this, Wang Simeng whispered to Shuang'er and Cui'er, "It's alright, don't worry."
He then gave Qin Yuan a slight smile and said, "Young Master Qin, since you are so sincere in inviting me to be your friend, wouldn't it be disrespectful of you to refuse?"
Qin Yuan's face lit up with joy upon hearing Wang Simeng's words; he was extremely pleased with himself.
"Just as I thought! What a clever trick! This woman is quite shrewd. She's beautiful and has good qualities. It's a waste for her to be the second son's concubine. I'll do it myself!" Qin Yuan thought to himself.
After thinking about it for a moment, Wang Simeng realized that the two of them might be plotting something against her.
So you've got your eye on my stuff!
Since they're willing to put on an act, then let's play along.
Wang Simeng smiled and said to Qin Yuan, "Young Master Qin, my name is Wang Simeng. Young Master Qin, and this gentleman is this one?" Wang Simeng pointed to the boy in blue and asked.
Qin Yuan quickly introduced with a smile, "This is my brother, Qin Zhiyu."
"Hello, Miss Wang!" Qin Zhang gave Wang Simeng a bright smile.
Wang Simeng nodded.
"Where is Miss Wang headed?" Qin Yuan asked with a charming smile.
Wang Simeng smiled slightly: "Just browsing around."
"Since Miss Wang wants to go shopping, why don't you come with us?" Qin Yuan suggested.
Wang Simeng smiled slightly upon hearing Qin Yuan's words: "Great! I was just thinking of having a good stroll around with Young Master Qin and Brother Qin!"
Trying to scheme against me? Hmph! Just wait and see how I deal with you.
As soon as Wang Simeng finished speaking, a familiar voice suddenly rang out behind her.
"Meng'er!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Simeng's heart skipped a beat, and she slowly turned around.
Wang Simeng looked at Mo Beichen and a big smile appeared on her face.
"Uh, what brings you here?"
Seeing how happy Wang Simeng was to see him, Mo Beichen couldn't help but smile slightly.
"I finished my business and heard you were here, so I came." Mo Beichen smiled at Wang Simeng, then glanced at Qin Zhiyuan and Qin Zhiyu beside him.
When Qin Yuan and Qin Zhang saw Mo Beichen arrive, they knew that their chance to befriend Wang Simeng was likely to be dashed.
Qin Yuan and Qin Zhang exchanged a glance, intending to find an excuse to leave. However, before they could speak, Mo Beichen spoke first.
"What brings the Crown Prince and Second Prince of Qin to my Qi Cang Kingdom?"
Qin Yuan and Qin Zhang's expressions immediately turned grim. Their disguise had been discovered.
The Crown Prince of Qin glanced at Mo Beichen and said.
"I have heard that Mo Beichen, the regent of Qi Cang Kingdom, is not only skilled in both literature and martial arts and has great talent, but also enjoys the emperor's deep trust and has supreme power in Qi Cang Kingdom."
"I've come here today for two reasons. First, to make acquaintance with the Regent. Second, to offer my congratulations on the Emperor of Qi Cang's birthday, bringing gifts with me," Qin Yuan said with a polite smile.
"Our Emperor's birthday is in June, you've arrived early." Mo Beichen looked at the two of them with a half-smile.
Upon hearing Mo Beichen's words, Qin Zhang immediately lost his composure. Qin Yuan, however, maintained his smile.
This regent is ruthless indeed. Not only did he expose his own identity, but he also made things so awkward for the regent. Well done.
