He walked in slowly and saw a piece of clothing draped on the screen. It happened to be his favorite crescent white color!
The smile on Jing Yuchen's lips deepened. He went behind the screen, took off his outer robe, and prepared to change into new clothes.
But there was a knock at the door, "Your Highness, the bath water is here."
Jing Yuchen said indifferently: "Come in!"
The door was opened and judging from the footsteps, it seemed that there were several people. Jing Yuchen was not in a hurry to put on his outer robe. He watched as they carried the wooden barrel in and placed it behind the curtain.
A palace servant reported: "Your Highness, the hot water is ready, and the clothes will be here soon!"
"No need, I saw something here that really suits my taste!" Jing Yuchen said casually.
The palace servants who came to deliver hot water were all eunuchs, and the palace maid never appeared again.
"Then we servants will withdraw first. If Your Highness has any further instructions, just raise your voice and we will come in to serve you immediately!"
After the eunuch finished speaking, he retreated politely.
Jing Yuchen said nothing. He watched everyone leave before walking behind the curtain.
There was indeed a wooden barrel inside, and there was still steam, but there was also a person inside.
A woman was lying on the small couch next to her, sleeping.
Jing Yuchen's gaze shifted and fell on the incense burner placed beside him.
Outside the room, not far away, a palace maid was leading Zou Yangyao over. "The Queen Mother said that as long as you follow her instructions, there will be many opportunities for you to meet the General's wife in the future. However, if you don't obey, the General's wife's life in the palace will be difficult!"
Zou Yangyao felt very bad after hearing the threatening remarks, but he couldn't get angry, so he just said "hmm" in a deep voice.
After arriving at a room, the palace maid said, "General, please go in by yourself. I will wait outside. I believe that the general's wife will be very happy and surprised to see you, general!"
Zou Yangyao didn't bother to pay attention to every word the palace servant said. He pushed open the door and walked in. In the room, a man's robe was hanging on the screen. The style of the robe looked like the one Jing Yuchen was wearing today?
Zou Yangyao frowned tightly, but shouldn't Xiao Chuer be the only one here?
Zou Yangyao walked slowly inside and called out, "Chu'er?"
But no one responded, so he continued walking inside and saw...
He was originally calling Xiao Chuer's name calmly, but the next moment his face was filled with rage and he roared, "Beast!"
The palace servant guarding outside the door smiled when he heard this, and then walked away.
At the banquet, Shao Lecheng and Duan Gouqiong had already returned early. At this moment, a palace maid hurried over and said anxiously to the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, it's bad! General Zou and the Regent are fighting!"
Who among those present hadn't heard about the incident between Jing Yuchen and Xiao Chuer? Could it be that the fight between Zou Yangyao and Jing Yuchen was because of that incident?
The expressions of the people present were all extremely excited, and it was obvious that they were all enjoying the show.
Ni Yueshan stood up and asked, "Why?"
The palace maid looked embarrassed, as if she couldn't speak. Seeing that the palace maid didn't say anything, Ni Yueshan roared: "I'm asking you a question, are you deaf?"
Miao Qinghua, who was sitting dignified, spoke up at this moment: "Princess Regent, please don't be impatient. Let the maid speak slowly!"
"They've already started fighting, how can we not be impatient? The rumors that were circulating back then are all false! There must be another reason for the fight now!"
Ni Yueshan didn't even give Miao Qingzhu a second glance. Angrily, she turned to Tai Banxue at the table and said, "Ms. Tai, tell me, is that a rumor?"
Tai Banxue's face turned pale. He slowly stood up and said, "Of course. How could the prince have anything to do with the general's wife? If the prince liked the general's wife, he would have taken action before General Zou. After all, the prince knew the general's wife first!"
The people present listened to what the two said, and their doubts remained.
Ni Yueshan listened with satisfaction, and finally set his eyes on the palace maid: "Just speak boldly!"
"I, I dare not!" The palace maid had a conflicted look on her face.
Ni Yueshan frowned tightly and threw the wine glass in his hand at the palace maid: "Don't dare? You dare not come to the banquet, kneel down and say that two people have fought? Shouldn't you turn a blind eye? Why are you pretending now? If you don't speak quickly, I will take your life!"
Ni Yueshan's words sounded so sharp that the palace maid was instantly frightened and kowtowed repeatedly on the ground.
"I know I was wrong. The reason was... the Prince Regent was disheveled and alone in a room with the General's wife. General Zou asked the palace servants to take him to see the General's wife. Who knew that when they brought him there, they would see such a shameless scene!"
"Then the two of them started fighting. Princess Regent, everything I said is true. I beg you to spare my life!"
Everyone present heard the palace maid's words clearly, and after a sigh, no one dared to say anything.
But Shao Lecheng, who was at the table, scoffed lightly: "Just now I thought those rumors were just rumors, but I didn't expect that they were really true! Princess Regent, are you still thinking about explaining to your husband?"
Ni Yueshan only glanced at Shao Lecheng coldly, then shouted at the palace maid: "Lead the way!"
The palace maid hurriedly stood up and walked quickly in one direction.
Ni Yueshan followed closely behind.
When we arrived at the place, we saw the two people fighting, and Jing Yuchen's shirt was indeed incomplete.
Miao Qinghua sent palace maids to follow, but the only people present were Shao Lecheng, Duan Gouqiong and Ni Gaofei.
