"Ms. Bai Baozhu, what are you doing?"
The second prince had been waiting for this moment for a long time. How could he miss the opportunity? He spoke loudly, but his tone was full of disbelief and doubt. However, he clearly announced Bai Baozhu's entire name, and people outside were talking about it for a while.
"Miss Bai Baozhu? Is she the one from Yi'an Marquis's family?"
"No way, isn't that person getting married? What kind of place is this? Why would such a distinguished person come here?"
"But His Royal Highness the Second Prince calls her 'Miss', maybe that's the case..."
Bai Baozhu naturally heard the discussions outside, but now that her men's clothes had been exposed, it was difficult for her to hide it.
"Sir, I don't know why you suddenly broke into my room for no reason. Are these your men? Why did you touch us? Is there any law?"
The second prince was looking forward to seeing how Bai Baozhu would break down or burst into tears, but Bai Baozhu acted as if she didn't know him and questioned him with confidence. He really didn't expect this sudden development.
People outside the house could not see what was happening inside the house, but could only hear the sounds. In addition, the Second Prince's unreasonable house search had already caused everyone to complain. At this moment, the balance in their hearts naturally tilted towards Bai Baozhu, who could only hear the sounds.
"This must be a mistake!"
"Yes, it sounds like she doesn't know the Second Prince at all. If it's really that Miss Bai, how could she not know the Second Prince?"
The second prince: "..."
"Miss Bai, why do you have to pretend not to know me? Have you forgotten that we met at the palace banquet some time ago?"
"This... His Royal Highness the Second Prince, right? I seem to have heard people talking about you being His Royal Highness the Second Prince. I'm just an ordinary woman. How could I possibly know someone as important as you, let alone attend a palace banquet that only the most distinguished can attend?"
Bai Baozhu had originally come up with this excuse out of desperation, pretending to be someone she wasn't, but seeing that it actually worked, she felt relieved, and the fear she had when her identity was discovered disappeared. She calmly began to make things difficult for the Second Prince.
The Second Prince had not expected that this woman could be so shameless. He had expected Bai Baozhu to burst into tears or beg him to keep the secret for her, but he had not expected that she would deny it even if beaten to death.
"Oh, Miss Bai, I didn't expect you to be such an interesting person. Instead of staying at home to prepare for your marriage, you came to this place of entertainment where men come and did such immoral things with women. And now you still refuse to admit your identity. You are really amazing."
"Your Highness, I am not the white girl you are talking about. I am Lily, just an ordinary woman in this building. My sister and I were just playing around. What nonsense are you talking about?"
At this time, Xin Wu, who had come to the outside of the private room to watch the scene, unexpectedly heard the name "Lily" from Bai Baozhu. He paused and was lost in thought. Did she still remember her original name?
"Oh, I don't remember there being a girl named Lily in this building?"
In order to avoid admitting that she was Bai Baozhu, she actually tried so hard to say that she was a girl in a brothel. The second prince couldn't help but praise her, saying that she was such a ruthless person.
"If your Highness doesn't believe me, you can ask Mom to be my witness! But I do have a question. I don't know what your intention is in pinning that Miss Bai's reputation on me. From what you've said, Miss Bai is getting married. I'm afraid you're trying to ruin her reputation and ruin her marriage. You really have a cruel heart!"
Bai Baozhu has now completely mastered the rhythm. Looking at the shocked expression on the Second Prince's face, she couldn't guess whether the Second Prince came here deliberately to make things difficult for her, but she knew that she must not let those people outside spread rumors that Bai Baozhu, the unmarried daughter of Marquis Yi'an, appeared in a brothel.
"Yes, I heard that the Second Prince has always been at odds with Prince Mu Yun. I'm afraid he's taking this opportunity to frame his fiancée, right?"
"Oh, by the way, have you heard about the story between Prince Mu Yun and that Miss Xin? That Miss Xin is so pitiful."
"Yes, yes, I heard about it. I think that Miss Bai is really pitiful. She actually has to marry such a..."
"Don't talk nonsense, do you still want your head?"
It seemed that someone wanted to say something bad about Sheng Jicheng, but was persuaded by the people around him. Fengming felt that it was really fun to eat melons. It turned out that when people were away from the keyboard, their imaginations when whispering gossip were just as interesting.
The second prince in the house was not so happy. He made such a big fuss not to give himself a reputation of being petty and maliciously framing a woman.
Seeing Bai Baozhu's smug expression, the Second Prince suddenly spoke up, "This young lady must have misunderstood. I didn't mean to give you the title of Miss Bai on purpose. It's just that you look exactly like Miss Bai Baozhu, the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Yi'an, who went missing. It's hard not to misunderstand. Since you said your name is Lily, why don't we ask the mother in the building to come and identify you?"
Jingyuan, who had been relieved to see that Bai Baozhu had the upper hand, was frightened and nervously pulled Bai Baozhu's sleeve when she heard that the second prince wanted the madam of Bailiyuan to come and identify the person.
Bai Baozhu was not at all flustered: "Alright, you are an honorable person, and whatever you say is what you are. We ordinary people can't resist, right? But there is one thing, if Mom comes and finds out that you have misunderstood me, it doesn't matter to me as a prostitute, but are you going to frame Miss Bai for nothing?"
The Second Prince originally thought that Bai Baozhu would panic when he asked the brothel owner to identify her, but he didn't expect that she seemed to be waiting for him to say this, like a hunter waiting for prey to fall into a trap.
"If it is truly a misunderstanding on my part, I will go to the Marquis Yi'an's residence to apologize and give Miss Bai a generous gift on her wedding day in two days!"
"Okay! Then let's ask Mom to figure it out!"
Bai Baozhu made the decision with decisiveness, and there was a burst of discussion outside the door. Feng Xiyun was anxious to move forward to see more clearly. It turned out that when it comes to watching the excitement, human nature is similar.
"Let's put it this way. I was the one who disturbed the young lady. Since the young lady is so righteous and wants to clear Miss Bai's reputation, I believe she doesn't mind proving it outside where everyone can see."
Although the Second Prince had some doubts about whether he had found the wrong person because of Bai Baozhu's behavior, he still didn't believe that there would be two people in the world who looked the same. Anyway, if he was really the wrong person, he would just have to go to the door to apologize and spend some money. But if he was the right person, and was identified in public, Bai Baozhu would have no room for maneuver.
