A Nan tossed the silver on the table and said casually, "She didn't come back last night. I don't know where she went!"
A Bi couldn't help clenching her teeth. "How could you not know? Doesn't she live here?"
Thinking of the fifty taels of silver she had lost but still failed to invite Liu Rumei, A Bi felt a pang of panic. If she couldn't find Liu Rumei, the princess would never forgive her lightly!
A Nan frowned tightly and looked at the woman in front of him with annoyance. "I said she's not here, and she's not!"
They were both maidservants. Why was this woman so annoying?
After saying that, not wanting to entangle with her anymore, he picked up the silver on the table and walked towards Heng Niang's room. "I'll give you three breaths to leave here quickly, or I won't be polite!"
A Bi gritted her teeth. Looking at his departing back, she could only stamp her foot and leave.
Entering Heng Niang's room, A Nan naturally climbed onto Heng Niang's bed, closed his eyes to sleep, with a slight smile on his lips, looking extremely content.
At this moment, outside the inn, Ning Yan'er was burning with anger. Looking at the maid in front of her, her eyes were filled with coldness. "Useless trash!"
A Bi trembled in her heart and quickly knelt on the ground. "This servant was incompetent in handling the matter. Please forgive me, princess!"
Ning Yan'er looked at the Youyuan Inn through the carriage curtain, her eyes full of coldness. A common woman dared to oppose her! Humph! Just wait and see!
"Go to the Prince of Guo'an's Mansion!"
"Yes."
A hint of confusion flashed across A Bi's eyes, but she didn't ask any more questions. She knelt respectfully beside the carriage, and couldn't help scolding A Nan in her heart!
At the Prince of Guo'an's Mansion.
Uncle Zhang looked at Ning Yan'er outside the door with a smile in his eyes. "I wonder what brings the Princess of Anning here?"
Ning Yan'er bowed slightly and said softly, "I wonder if Miss Liu is here. Just now, I went to the inn to look for her. I heard from the waiter in the inn that she had returned to the mansion, so I rushed over."
Uncle Zhang's smile remained unchanged. "I wonder what important matter the princess has to look for the princess consort?"
Could it be because of the matter of the Bai family?
"Princess consort?" Hearing Uncle Zhang's address, Ning Yan'er's face instantly changed. "I wonder when the prince got married?"
Princess consort? How dare she! What a shameless woman!
Uncle Zhang said with a smiling face, "The prince has given the order, and this old servant dare not disobey. As for the wedding, it should be soon!"
Ning Yan'er's sharp nails dug into her palm without realizing it, and she almost gritted her silver teeth to pieces. "Since she is not yet married, she should not be addressed like this. If this gets out, won't it ruin Miss Liu's reputation?"
A hint of mockery flashed across Uncle Zhang's eyes, but his smile remained undiminished. "This is the prince's order, and this old servant is just following the order!"
The jealousy in Ning Yan'er's heart almost drove her crazy. It must be that this woman used some kind of coquettish means to bewitch the prince! Damn it! She would never let it go like this!
Enduring the anger in her heart, she forced a smile. "Previously, Miss Liu promised to help me investigate the case. Please inform her for me!"
Uncle Zhang nodded with a smile. "Please wait a moment, princess!"
Ning Yan'er forced a smile and was about to speak when Uncle Zhang suddenly closed the door with a "bang".
Ning Yan'er originally thought that Uncle Zhang would invite her to the front hall to wait for a while, but unexpectedly, he directly locked her out of the door!
Liu Rumei, I will never rest until one of us is destroyed!
A Bi saw the coldness in Ning Yan'er's eyes and couldn't help clenching her teeth and saying, "Princess, the prince must have been bewitched by her. With her status, how can she be worthy of the prince?"
Ning Yan'er took a deep breath and tried to calm the anger in her heart. "Don't I know that? Do I need you to tell me?"
Liu Rumei, you just wait for me. After I marry into the Prince of Guo'an's Mansion, I will surely tear you into pieces to vent my hatred!
Liu Rumei got up early, but she didn't step out of the room. Looking at the guards at the door through the window, she couldn't help clenching her teeth.
Mo Liandi, what on earth do you want!
At this moment, Mo Liandi was sitting in the courtyard, looking at the closed door, with a curve on his lips.
After a while, Si Xi came with the meal and placed it in the courtyard. He bowed respectfully to Mo Liandi and then knocked on the door. "Miss Liu, it's time for breakfast."
Hearing this address, Mo Liandi couldn't help frowning, but he didn't say much in the end.
Liu Rumei sat in the room and said sullenly, "I'm not hungry. I won't eat."
Could it be that this man really wanted to lock her up for a lifetime?
Mo Liandi's brows furrowed even more. He said indifferently, "Liu Liu, do you want me to carry you out for breakfast myself?"
Although it was indeed his fault to leave her in the mansion, he didn't regret it. He had to force her a little so that she could understand her own heart.
Moreover, he couldn't feel at ease if he didn't see her with his own eyes!
Liu Rumei couldn't help clenching her teeth and could only open the door. She believed that if she really didn't go out, he would really break in!
Seeing Liu Rumei's angry look, Si Xi couldn't help smiling. Sure enough, the prince had a way!
Liu Rumei couldn't help glaring at Si Xi. She pursed her red lips and sat opposite Mo Liandi. "I want to go out."
Mo Liandi said indifferently, "It's very hot now. Wait until the sun sets, and I'll go out with you."
A hint of confusion flashed across Liu Rumei's eyes. Did he want to sneak out like the day before yesterday?
"I'll go alone."
Mo Liandi's expression paused slightly, and his eyes were full of displeasure. "Have you forgotten what I said yesterday?"
Liu Rumei pursed her lips and wisely remained silent.
Just then, Uncle Zhang suddenly came in. He bowed respectfully to the two of them. "Greetings to the prince and the princess consort!"
Mo Liandi looked at Uncle Zhang and signaled with his eyes. Then he got up and came outside the West Garden.
Only then did Uncle Zhang say in a low voice, "Prince, the Princess of Anning is here. She said she was looking for the princess consort."
Yesterday, the princess consort and she were driven out of the house by Bai Hanfei. This woman still came. It was obvious that her intentions were not simple!
Mo Liandi's eyes were full of coldness. "Just find an excuse to send her away."
Uncle Zhang nodded respectfully. "Yes, but what about the princess consort..."
"Don't tell her." Mo Liandi roughly guessed what Ning Yan'er wanted to do. She just wanted to kill with a borrowed knife. But did Bai Hanfei and Zhang Lanfeng really have the guts to touch his woman?
Thinking of this, a hint of mockery flashed across his eyes.
Uncle Zhang nodded respectfully and then turned to leave.
At this moment, outside the door, Ning Yan'er was already sweating profusely from waiting. The sun had risen. Although A Bi beside her used an umbrella to block most of the sun, it didn't help much.
Just when Ning Yan'er was getting impatient, Uncle Zhang finally opened the door. He said with a smile to her, "The princess consort is not feeling well. Princess of Anning, please go back."
Ning Yan'er's eyes darkened. She said softly, "But Miss Liu promised to help me investigate the case."
