"Hehe, I'll reveal it!" Meiya smiled slyly and proudly, and took a bite of the candied haws. Then she leaned over and kissed the man's cheek, laughing, "But I'll only reveal it in front of you. I don't want others to know this."
Zhong Mingwei couldn't help but smile when he saw her so cute and innocent. He hooked his big hand around Meiya's neck. Then he kissed her. But as soon as he touched her lips, his eyes widened. The sour feeling was unbearable for an old man who was used to eating sweets. He wanted to withdraw his kiss immediately. But it was too late. The girl grabbed his neck and then made a mess on his lips...
When Pang Yi came in, he saw Zhong Mingwei covering his mouth. His brows were knitted together. He looked so painful. Mei Ya, on the other hand, was sitting on the side eating candied haws, looking relaxed and at ease.
"Master, what happened to you?" Pang Yi looked at Zhong Mingwei nervously, "Does it hurt your teeth? Or...did you eat something bad?"
"Cough cough!" The next second, Zhong Mingwei started coughing violently.
Mei Ya calmly looked at the man who was coughing non-stop: "Pang Yi is asking you a question, did you eat something bad?"
"Cough cough cough! Cough cough!" Then Zhong Mingwei coughed even more violently.
"I'd better ask a doctor to take a look at me." Pang Yi looked worried and was about to go out in a hurry.
"Come back here!" Suddenly, the prince shouted, calling Pang Yi to stop. Then, under Pang Yi's concerned eyes and Mei Ya's playful gaze, he silently finished the cup of milk tea and stopped coughing.
"Have you found out who are the people who have been following us during the day?" Seeing Pang Yi was about to speak again, Zhong Mingwei hurriedly spoke before him.
"Yes, I was just about to report this to you and your wife," Pang Yi said in a serious tone, "During the day, as soon as we left the palace, we were secretly followed. I couldn't stand it at the time, but you told me not to intervene, so I didn't do anything and let those people follow us. After you and your wife returned to the palace, I investigated the identities of those people who were following us." Pang Yi paused, pursed his lips and looked at Zhong Mingwei, smiling, "Master, do you want to guess who are the people following us?"
"Of course it's Prince Rong's people," Zhong Mingwei said slowly, "Prince Hui has become an ominous person now, and he has no support from his mother's family and relatives. Even the morning court was exempted by His Majesty, so there is no hope for him to ascend the throne. Now I'm afraid he can only hope that His Majesty will be merciful and give him a good piece of land to be a safe prince. Therefore, the only one who cares so much about our Prince An's Mansion is probably Prince Rong."
"Yes, my guess is correct. There are indeed men sent by Prince Rong," Pang Yi nodded, and asked, "Then, my Lord, guess who else is paying attention to our Anjunwang Mansion besides Prince Rong's men?"
Zhong Mingwei was startled and frowned, "Who else? Could it be someone from the Jinyiwei?"
"No, Your Majesty was very generous this time and didn't even let the Royal Guards secretly watch us," Pang Yi shook his head and said, then paused and said, "It's just that I never thought that the head of the Imperial Hospital, Lord Qin, would be so concerned about your and your wife's schedule."
"What? Qin Lu?" Zhong Mingwei was obviously shocked. He frowned for a long time before asking Pang Yi, "Don't tell me you are mistaken. He is an imperial physician and I have no contact with him. How could he think of keeping an eye on my whereabouts? It doesn't make sense for him to do that, and he doesn't have the courage to do that."
