After the Dragon Boat Festival, the capital city became increasingly hotter.
Yan Bao stocked up on a lot of ice cubes and made a lot of popsicles. He kept the old popsicles in a space and would take them out when the hot summer came. They would definitely be very popular.
She and Ziyun had already secretly eaten several of them. Who told her to be afraid of the heat?
Ah Huai, who was originally scheduled to return in April, finally returned in mid-May.
When Yan Bao got the news, he immediately told Madam Shen that she was waiting outside the capital.
Looking at the carriages coming and going, none of them were Ah Huai's carriage. Yan Bao looked eagerly, and when she was about to eat her second popsicle, she finally saw Ah Huai's carriage.
Yan Bao immediately waved his little hand to attract the driver's attention.
The driver recognized Yan Bao and said to the young master in the carriage with a smile: "Prince Huai, it's Princess Taining."
The person in the car seemed not to hear it at first, and only responded after the driver repeated it.
As the carriage approached, Yan Bao stood by the roadside, looking at the curtain expectantly. Soon, a small hand lifted the curtain, revealing Ah Huai's beautiful and delicate face, with red lips and white teeth, really looking like a girl.
Yan Bao's eyes widened in surprise: [A Huai! ]
Ah Huai looked at Yan Bao with a smile: "Taining!"
Yan Bao: “???”
"Why did you come out of town to pick me up?" Ah Huai looked delighted.
Yan Bao blinked and carefully looked at the person in front of him. The other person had a smile on his face, but it was a little stiff. When Yan Bao saw it, his heart skipped a beat: [Good fellow, Ah Huai, you were actually ambushed.]
[Whoa, what kind of monster is this?] Yan Bao never expected that the person she was waiting for was not Ah Huai, but a fake Ah Huai.
I'm afraid Zhen Ahuai was imprisoned by them.
King Dongshan is truly persistent and has devised many schemes and plots for the throne.
He actually targeted the powerless Ah Huai.
After so much difficulty becoming a prince, he is now making wedding dresses for others.
Yan Bao secretly clenched his fists.
Fake Ah Huai frowned secretly: "Taining, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing him start to get suspicious, Yan Bao smiled and shook his head: "Nothing, I just found out the goods are not what I ordered. It's okay, you keep pretending, I won't expose you. When I find the real Ah Huai, you're dead."
【Now, I can't alert the enemy. 】
"Let's go. It's getting late and I still have to go to the palace." The fake Ah Huai knew that Yan Bao had a good relationship with the prince. He thought he had learned it very well, so if it wasn't fake, it would be fake.
He was afraid that he would reveal his flaws and be discovered.
Fortunately, this Princess Taining is a mute and looks innocent, so she shouldn't realize that she is fake.
Thinking of this, the fake Ah Huai secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In order to avoid being exposed, he decided to have less contact with Princess Taining.
Yan Bao saw through his thoughts. Ah Huai would never call him Taining. He always called him Yan Bao. Why would he call him that in such a strange way?
It seems that he hasn't learned enough.
Yan Bao saw that he was distancing himself from her, but he didn't say anything.
Fake Ah Huai got back on the carriage, and thought of something. He took out a box and gave it to Yan Bao: "This is a gift for you, a little token of my appreciation. I hope the princess likes it."
Yan Bao took it with a smile and watched Ah Huai's carriage leave.
Zi Yun noticed that Yan Bao was in a bad mood and asked, "What's wrong?"
Yan Bao wrote on Ziyun's palm: Something happened to Ah Huai.
Ziyun raised an eyebrow and looked in the direction of the disappearing carriage: "He looks fine!"
Yan Bao didn't intend to hide it from Zi Yun: "It's fake."
Zi Yun's eyes widened in disbelief. "No wonder I feel a little awkward. Normally, I can't wait to talk to you for days and nights, but today, not only is he so cold, but he keeps calling me Taining and Princess."
"He wasn't like this before. It turns out he was replaced by someone else. Is it the same person as that one in the palace..." Zi Yun was afraid that someone would eavesdrop, so she asked in a low voice: "What should we do? Is he a fake, or is he real?"
Thinking of Ah Huai, Zi Yun sympathized: "Nothing will happen, right?"
Yan Bao shook his head: He is still alive, but I don’t know where he is hidden.
Yan Bao saw news about Ah Huai from the fake person. He was injured and seemed to be in a very bad situation.
I think they were afraid that he would run away, put him under house arrest, or even have his hands and feet crippled.
Thinking of this, Yan Bao shuddered.
"What should we do? Should we expose the faker now?" Zi Yun clenched her fists, determined not to let anyone continue to harm others.
Yan Bao shook his head: Don’t alert the enemy, let’s find the person first.
Ziyun asked, "Do you know where it is?"
Yan Bao shook his head, then nodded: [Looks like we need to go to King Dongshan's territory.]
He arranged for a fake Ah Huai to sneak into the palace. Before that, it was a fake Concubine Jiang. There must be something big going on.
Yan Bao couldn't take any risks with Ah Huai.
It was confirmed that it was King Dongshan who did it. As he was such a cautious person, he would definitely kill him to prevent future troubles.
Now that Ah Huai is alive, he must be in a place he thinks is very safe.
King Dongshan’s fiefdom is his territory and the safest place.
Yan Bao wanted to see whether this gift was prepared by the real Ah Huai or the fake Ah Huai.
When he opened the box, Yan Bao saw three letters written on the inside: SOS.
Yuanbao: “…”
Ziyun asked: "What does this mean? I don't know!"
Yan Bao stroked the letter of help left by Ah Huai and clenched his fist: [Ah Huai is really in trouble, he is asking me for help.]
Ziyun: “???”
Mrs. Shen thought that Yan Bao would be very happy to see Ah Huai, whom she had been looking forward to, after returning from his trip. However, she found that his face was serious, with sorrow between his brows, and he looked like he had a lot on his mind.
Mrs. Shen asked, "What happened? Did you have a fight with Ah Huai?"
Yan Bao shook his head: "How should I tell my parents that something happened to Ah Huai? The Ah Huai in the palace now is not the real Ah Huai at all. He is disguised by bad people. They infiltrated the palace to help Prince Dongshan seize power and usurp the throne."
