Chapter 938 They Are All Thieves
That night, Princess Fuyun might have gone out for a while and caught a cold. She was a little groggy with fever in the middle of the night and couldn't sleep well due to coughing.
But she didn't know that while she was coughing and confused, a dark shadow quietly entered her room.
Chenxiang, who was sleeping on the couch next to him, turned over, muttered something, and fell asleep again.
The shadow paused and began searching the house.
Maybe this was not Princess Fuyun's own place, and there were not so many cabinets and closets to hide things. Soon, he found the thing.
It was placed in a box brought by Princess Fuyun.
Although the box was locked, the black shadow knew where the key was when he saw the lock. He took a hairpin from Princess Fuyun and turned it to find the key.
Many nobles in the palace would use this method.
The lock opened at once, and the thing wrapped in cloth was taken out. The black shadow locked the box, put the hairpin away and put it back, then went out quietly.
Soon, this thing was placed in front of Xiao Lanyuan.
"Your Highness, why don't you let the princess take a look later? The thing was in the hands of that uncle and then in the hands of the eldest princess. They are both infected with the disease. You'd better not touch it directly with your hands." said the guard.
Xiao Lanyuan originally wanted to say that it didn't matter, but he quickly thought of what Fu Zhaoning said about bacteria being as small as dust.
"You can go down. Remember to change your clothes and wash them." He rarely reminded the guards.
"yes."
The secret guards retreated for a while before Fu Zhaoning came back feeling relaxed.
The thick black hair cascading down her shoulders made her face look as white as jade, and her black eyes and red lips made her extremely beautiful.
Xiao Lanyuan looked at her, his heart beating fast.
"Don't catch a cold." He took a cloak and put it on her, then reached out and touched her hair, "It's dry now."
"Hong Zhuo and Fen Xing helped me wipe it for a long time with the heated fine cotton cloth. They were very attentive."
While drying her hair, he also massaged her head.
She had just taken a nap for half an hour.
Now she was almost indulging herself in this kind of life with a caring maid serving her.
"Will you take them with you wherever you go in the future?" Xiao Lanyuan pulled her to sit down and held her in his arms with her cloak.
She should have brought a maid with her instead of always trying to do everything herself.
But she had always been very independent, and Dahe had no maid following her wherever she went.
Sometimes Xiao Lanyuan suspected that she really didn't take her identity as princess to heart.
"That depends on the situation. If it's a harsh place, why let them suffer?" Fu Zhaoning said casually.
Xiao Lanyuan often thought that her thoughts were strange.
I can go to a harsh environment and suffer, but the guards and maids can't go?
"What is this?"
Fu Zhaoning had already seen the thing on the table.
Xiao Lanyuan's tone was very calm, as if he was talking about something very unimportant.
"I just stole this. The shadow guard said the first owner was infected with a disease, and the thief who stole it was also infected. Let me show you first and see if you can touch it directly."
"puff."
Fu Zhaoning understood what he meant and couldn't help but sneer.
"Stolen? Where did you steal it from?"
And it changed hands twice?
"The thief is infected with the disease, and you let people steal. Are you also a thief?" Fu Zhaoning turned his head to look at him.
Xiao Lanyuan pecked her on the lips.
"My princess has truly noble character." He smiled.
"Where did you steal it from?" Fu Zhaoning looked at him.
"In the west wing."
After he said that, Fu Zhaoning immediately understood. Her mind worked quickly and she thought of a series of things in a flash.
She asked in shock, "Did the princess go out? Did she really find that old man?"
Xiao Lanyuan really admired her quick thinking.
"Yes. You are right. I underestimated her. I didn't expect that she could actually have such a dream."
Xiao Lanyuan was also quite surprised.
Although he had someone keep an eye on Princess Fuyun, it was only because he liked to have things under control. He didn't expect that he would actually witness her dream come true.
She has such an ability, no wonder she has been able to maintain her reputation as a lucky person for so many years, and still make His Majesty Dahe hold on to her tightly and not want to let go.
I don’t know what else she could dream about.
"You mean to say that she found the old man?"
Fu Zhaoning thought about it and felt something was wrong. "She couldn't convince the old man to give her the things, so she chose to steal them?!"
If this is true, then her impression of Princess Fuyun really needs to be refreshed again.
Is this something that a princess can do?
"I heard that the other party was not at home, so I went in and stole it."
"Just steal it?"
"Yes, no, it's right here."
"Then you go steal too--" Fu Zhaoning looked at Xiao Lanyuan speechlessly.
That one is the eldest princess, and this one is Prince Jun——
Look at what they do.
"Didn't you say that this thing was originally meant to be given to me? And it was given to me voluntarily by the master."
Xiao Lanyuan refused to admit that he was stealing.
"That is to say, if she didn't steal it, it would have come into my hands sooner or later. In other words, what she stole was mine. In that case, I am just taking back what belongs to me now, so how can it be considered stealing?"
Fu Zhaoning looked at him for a moment and gave him a thumbs up.
"I'm actually speechless."
"Is your husband wrong?" Xiao Lanyuan leaned closer to her and bit her lips. "You say."
"That's right, I think you are right." Fu Zhaoning said quickly.
"Hmm." Xiao Lanyuan was finally satisfied.
"Put on gloves and open it. It will be more careful." Fu Zhaoning got down from his legs and went to get the gloves.
But when she was turning over the gloves, she suddenly thought of another question, "No, that's not right. You said the original owner of this thing was sick? People with infectious diseases now should have been treated by me. Who is it?"
"I didn't ask, but you can guess."
"She said she dreamed of an old man. The old man I dealt with recently is unlikely to live in this west wing, otherwise she should know him—"
Fu Zhaoning took the gloves and put them on him. He looked down at his wrist and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind.
"No way? Could it be Uncle Wang?"
The main reason was that she just remembered what Uncle Wang had said to her.
"I think you might be right." Xiao Lanyuan also guessed so. "Ask the shadow guard tomorrow."
He had already opened the cloth bag.
The box appeared before them.
As soon as Fu Zhaoning saw the box, some memory suddenly flashed through her mind, but it was too fast for her to catch it.
