The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 287 Spy
Cui Hengyue rushed out, pedestrians on the street came and went as usual, only the scattered goods could prove that this place has just experienced a turmoil.

"Where's the water rong?"

Seeing Shui Fu chasing her out, Cui Hengyue looked at her.

"Shui Rong went after those people." Shui Fu replied.

"Which direction are those people going?" Cui Hengyue and Xie Yuan said at the same time.

After the words came out, the two looked at each other, then at Shui Fu, waiting for the answer.

"This way." Shui Fu raised her finger to the left.

Before the words were finished, Cui Hengyue and Xie Yuan jumped to the left and disappeared on the street in the blink of an eye.

Shuifu was about to go after her, but was stopped by the assistant.

"Hey, you haven't paid the bill yet, you can't leave."

Shui Fu was forced to stop, and after paying for the tea, she stayed by the carriage and waited for Cui Hengyue to come back.

Cui Hengyue and Xie Yuan chased for two streets, and finally met Shui Rong.

"Where are those people?" Cui Hengyue asked impatiently.

Shui Rong showed shame and shook her head: "I lost it."

Xie Yuan glanced at her, then looked for clues nearby.

Seeing this, Cui Hengyue also looked around.

A quarter of an hour later, Cui Hengyue and Xie Yuan met: "How? Have you found any clues?"

Xie Yuan shook his head: "No, how about you?"

"I didn't find it either." Cui Hengyue looked disappointed.

So, the three returned to the tea shop.

Shui Fu walked up to Shui Rong, and asked softly, "Did you catch up?"

"Well, I lost it." Shui Rong replied.

Hearing this, a look of disappointment appeared on Shui Fu's face.

On the other side, Xie Yuan looked at Cui Hengyue: "What are you going to do now?"

"What else can I do? I can only admit that I am unlucky."

Seeing that Cui Hengyue was very depressed, Xie Yuan asked again: "Who is that maid?"

It's just a little maid, why would someone snatch her from Cui Hengyue?What is her identity?

Xie Yuan had a hunch that the identity of this little palace lady was not simple, but he regretted it as soon as he asked, because Cui Hengyue had told him clearly that he would not tell him, and let him check it out by himself.

"Green."

Cui Hengyue slowly spit out two words.

Xie Yuan looked at her in surprise, and couldn't believe that she told him the answer so easily.

But seeing that Cui Hengyue's expression was serious, he didn't look like he was joking, so he asked, "Is that the maid from the Longevity Palace who was demoted to Yeting by the Queen Mother?"

"Yes." Cui Hengyue didn't hide anymore.

Xie Yuan's eyes widened suddenly, he couldn't help but walked to Cui Hengyue's side, and said in a low voice: "So, you are the assassin last night?"

Cui Hengyue: ".Yes."

Seeing Xie Yuan's unfriendly eyes, Cui Hengyue hastily explained: "I just went to Yeting to look for Lu'er, I didn't do anything else."

"Why are you looking for Lu'er?" Xie Yuan asked.

As far as he knew, Lu'er was demoted to the court by the Queen Mother because of hurting Cui Hengyue. Since it was a hostile relationship, why did Cui Hengyue go to find Lu'er?

Cui Hengyue paused.

Tell the truth?

Of course not.

"I said I went to Yeting to seek revenge on her, would you believe me?"

Xie Yuan: "...I don't believe it."

Who would risk their lives to bring the enemy out of the palace?

This reason is too implausible.

"Ugh--"

Cui Hengyue suddenly sighed, and said helplessly: "I originally went to Yeting to ask Lu'er why she wanted to kill me, but just happened to happen that the Queen Mother sent Nanny You and Nanny Gui to kill Lu'er, so I saved Lu'er out of kindness.

"But I didn't expect Lu'er to be a big trouble, and I was almost discovered.

"Now I haven't figured out why she wanted to harm me, so I was robbed by others."

Cui Hengyue sighed again, very frustrated.

Xie Yuan was silent for a while, and said to her: "Those people dare to rob people in the street, and they can not show their flaws, their identities must be different.

"You have just returned to Jinyang, and there is no one around you to rely on, so let this matter go, don't pursue it any further, and don't go to Lu'er again, go back home and recuperate.

"Don't worry, I will do what I promised you."

After finishing speaking, Xie Yuan jumped into the carriage and waved his whip.

"drive--"

The carriage galloped away.

Cui Hengyue was thoughtful as he watched the carriage go away.

At this time, Shui Fu came over: "Yuan Niang, the King of Changshan County invites you to come over, he is in the elegant room on the second floor."

Cui Hengyue raised her eyebrows slightly, and turned to face the teahouse.

At the door, Pine met her gaze and saluted silently.

Cui Hengyue looked at the pine tree, and then at the Shui Fu beside her: "You have been here just now?"

"Yes." Shui Fu was a little puzzled, not understanding why Cui Hengyue asked such a question.

"When did the Prince of Changshan come?"

Shui Fu's heart skipped a beat, and she finally understood why Cui Hengyue asked such a question. Cui Hengyue was suspicious of her.

Thoughts surged in her heart, but only for a moment, she replied: "I didn't see him, maybe he came here before we came here."

Cui Hengyue didn't say anything, and walked straight towards the pine tree.

"Let's go."

Song Mu led the way, without saying a word all the way, until he came to a certain elegant room on the second floor, he stopped: "Miss Cui, the king of the county is waiting for you inside, you go in."

From his appearance, Chen Linshen was planning to talk to her alone.

Cui Hengyue glanced around calmly, except for a few of them, there was no one else on the second floor.

But Cui Hengyue soon found out that this private room was next to the one she stayed in just now, and her heart sank.

"You stay outside."

After Cui Hengyue finished talking to Shui Fu and Shui Rong, she opened the door and entered the elegant room.

"I didn't expect to meet Changshan County King while drinking tea outside. What a coincidence."

While scanning the room calmly, Cui Hengyue sat unceremoniously opposite Chen Linshen.

Chen Linshen put a cup of hot tea on the food table in front of her expressionlessly: "I'm here to find you."

"Oh?" Cui Hengyue was very surprised, and asked along the way: "The king of the county has been waiting for me here for a long time?"

Chen Linshen withdrew his hand and picked up his teacup: "Not for a long time, maybe a quarter of an hour."

One quarter of an hour?

Then I must have seen Shui Fu when I came in. Since I saw Shui Fu, I must have asked questions, right?

Cui Hengyue was in a bad mood, but she didn't show it on the face, and took a sip from her teacup leisurely: "What is the king looking for me for?"

"The maid you brought out of the palace today is Lu'er from the Longevity Palace, right?"

"puff--"

Chen Linshen's words made the tea that Cui Hengyue just drank spurt out.

A few drops of tea fell on Chen Linshen's face, and his face turned dark immediately.

Seeing this, Cui Hengyue hurriedly took out a brocade handkerchief: "I'm sorry, I'll clean it up for you."

Chen Linshen grabbed the hand she extended, with a gloomy expression: "No, I will do it myself."

He let go of his hand, originally wanted to take his own handkerchief, but with a thought, he quickly took the brocade handkerchief from Cui Hengyue's hand, and wiped it on his face.

Cui Hengyue was immersed in anger at this time, and didn't think so much.

Shui Fu actually told Chen Linshen about Lu'er, and she and Shui Rong were indeed Chen Linshen's people.

Cui Hengyue thought that if they had been with the King of Chu for a long time, they would be drawn over by the King of Chu, but they didn't expect that they didn't rebel, and they were still loyal to Chen Linshen, no, to the Prince Regent.

Therefore, the king of Chu gave them to her as an opportunity to send away the spies that the regent kept by his side.

She was so moved at the time, it was so stupid.
Seeing that Cui Hengyue hung her head and remained motionless, Chen Linshen said with a straight face: "Why, you were exposed by me, are you afraid?"

she will be afraid?
Hehe, joke!
Cui Hengyue said calmly: "The king of the county is wrong, that is not from the Longevity Palace, but I don't know who she is, I only know that she is a palace maid who helped me carry things."

Anyway, she was gone, and they had no evidence to arrest her.
