“That’s right…” Rong Ning made up her mind. “We need to find a way to contact our people and get them all moving. Don’t be afraid of being exposed. With me in the Prime Minister’s residence, I’m their lifeline.”
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Rong Ning knew she couldn't stay in Nanyang City for too long; the longer she stayed, the more likely things would go wrong.
But right now, she hasn't found any useful breakthroughs.
Just thinking about it gives me a headache…
"Go prepare some hot water, I'm going to wash up and go to bed," Rong Ning sighed. "We can talk about anything else after I wake up tomorrow."
It was already late at night. By the time Rong Ning finished washing up, the full moon was almost setting. She couldn't sleep for long, so in order to recharge, Rong Ning went straight to sleep. When she woke up again, it was already broad daylight.
Rong Ning got up and, as was her habit, stretched her limbs in the courtyard before getting ready. Once she was all ready, the servants brought her breakfast.
It was delivered by Xie Xizhu's head maid, who also carried a message: "Your Highness, the eldest young lady said that she drank too much yesterday and is not feeling well, so she cannot accompany you today. If Your Highness is bored in the courtyard, you can wander around the mansion."
Rong Ning raised an eyebrow and asked with concern, "Is your young lady ill? Is it serious?"
"Your Highness, the young lady is fine and will recover after a few days of rest!"
"oh……"
Rong Ning nodded. "Go back and tell your young lady that I will go see her later."
"Yes...Your Highness..."
The head maidservant withdrew.
Rong Ning pulled A Ying to sit down and have breakfast together, asking, "Was I too much? I made the young lady sick on our first night in the manor?"
"Your Highness...it's not your fault, it's just that they can't hold their liquor!"
In her presence, who could hold their liquor?
However, she was carried back unconscious last night, and I guess everyone in the Prime Minister's mansion knows about it. Just think about what she said last night, her brothers, sisters, and aunts must have been gossiping about her.
Ugh... this is really tough!
Rong Ning thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the Prime Minister's wife's place first... After all, I'm a junior, and I'm staying at her residence, so it's not strange for me to pay my respects to the Prime Minister's wife so early in the morning!"
Upon hearing this, Aying suddenly realized, "That's right... The Prime Minister's wife hasn't shown up since we met yesterday. They may not understand the rules, but our Prince is not!"
These words were so shameless that even Rong Ning herself couldn't stand them. She slapped A Ying and said irritably, "That's enough... I'm afraid I'll get struck by lightning!"
