After falling into the water, I robbed the future first assistant of the marriage!

Chapter 48
"Prince Yu," Prince Xubu said again, "Since you and the emperor are father and son, then tell me for me, there are so many beautiful princesses in this palace, please allow me Xubu to be a concubine."

Shen Cu finally understood that Prince Xubu was just a skinny dog, but there was nothing wrong with it, after all, gentlemen were gentlemen.

Pei Xi didn't answer, nor did he directly refuse.

Shen Tu's hand was still held by him, and she couldn't pull it out with all her strength. If someone saw this, she wouldn't be able to wash it off even if she jumped into the Yellow River.

"Prince Xubu can tell his father clearly." Pei Xi said, "Since Daqi and Shurong intend to befriend each other, Daqi should satisfy Prince Xubu's request."

Prince Xubu asked, "Really?"

Pei Xi nodded, "Naturally."
"I'm going to the palace to see the emperor now." Prince Xu Bu seemed impatient, "Prince Xie Yu reminded me that after the matter is completed, Xu Bu will definitely come to thank you."

"Prince Xubu has left." Shen Tu reminded him.

"Ah."

"You can let go." Shen Tu tugged at the hand that was still held by him.

"Naturally."

The second after the words fell, Shen Tu smoothly withdrew his hand.

The white fingers showed red marks because he held her too tightly, but it was Prince Xubu, was it necessary to hold her hand and not let go?
She was indeed angry, "Whether a man or a woman can kiss each other, doesn't Lord Yu know?"

"This king doesn't know that there is such a saying."

"rogue."

"Miss Qi, are you talking about me?"

"Don't dare."

Shen Tu was already gnashing his teeth in his heart, but he had to maintain a respectful and polite face.

"Then Wang is curious about who Miss Qi is talking about?"

She replied, "I am Prince Xubu."

"My king and Miss Qi also think the same way."

……

Because the sudden appearance of Prince Xu Bu delayed the time, it was already half an hour before Shen Tu returned to the mansion.

Because of this Lord Jade, she can only enter the mansion through the main entrance.

Just as he was about to step over the stone steps, he was stopped again.

"Miss Qi."

She turned around, suppressed the annoyance in her heart, and asked, "Is there something else for Prince Yu?"

"Qi Kang." Pei Xi gestured, "Bingtanghaws will be delivered to Miss Qi's residence."

"Yes, my lord."

Qi Kang obeyed his orders, he raised his foot and was about to walk inside.

"Don't bother guard Qi." Shen Tu hurriedly stopped Qi Kang who was about to step in, and she said to the boy who opened the door, "Hurry up and take it."

The candied haws on Qi Kang's shoulders was picked up by the dexterous servants of Qi's mansion.

She showed him a deep smirk, "Thank you, Lord Yu."

Qiqiao was quite happy, she couldn't stop laughing from ear to ear as she followed behind the servant who was carrying candied haws.

"Miss, when will you eat so many candied haws?"

"Eat until your teeth are eaten up by worms." Shen Tu threatened her.

When Shen Tu said that the worms were going to eat all her teeth, Qiqiao immediately covered her mouth in fear.

Shen Tu just smiled and didn't speak.

Qiqiao reacted, "Miss, you are scaring me."

"Send some to Aunt Wang." She ordered Qiqiao.

"Send some to the second sister's courtyard." She said again.

"Understood, miss."

Qiqiao took some and gave some to Wang Liuying and Qi Yue's yard respectively.

Ever since Chunrong's death, there always seemed to be a gloomy atmosphere surrounding the second young lady's courtyard, and Qiqiao stepped carefully across the threshold of the courtyard.

"Hongyan?" she called softly.

No one responded, so Qiqiao could only bite the bullet and walk in. For some reason, she is now afraid of the second lady.

"Second miss?"

Still no one answered.

"Hong Yan?"

"Is anyone here?"

It seemed like no one was really there.

Qiqiao looked at the candied haws in the basket and didn't know what to do for a moment.

Or come back later.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he heard crying and cursing.

Qiqiao was about to lift her foot to leave and then stopped, the cry sounded like Hongyan's voice.

Qiqiao was wondering what happened, and then there was a sound, as if the teacup fell to the ground, and then she heard the second young lady scolding and insulting Hongyan.

Qiqiao didn't dare to stay for a long time, so she hurriedly left before she was discovered.

Walking and running all the way, he almost bumped into the servant who bowed his head and only cared about his work.

"Miss, ma'am."

Qiqiao bent over, panting heavily.

Shen Tu is rhythmically tapping his sore calf with the newly bought Beauty Fist

She looked strangely at Qiqiao who hadn't recovered yet, "What's wrong with you?"

Seeing the candied haws in Qiqiao's basket again, she asked, "Don't Aunt Wang like it?"

Qiqiao shook her head, "No."

"Is that because Hongyan is afraid that I will poison her young lady?"

Qiqiao still shook her head.

"Hongyan... Hongyan is crying." Qiqiao finally recovered her breath.

"Why are you crying?" Shen Tu didn't care much.

"Second Miss seemed to be yelling at her," Qiqiao said, "and dropped the teacup."

"And what is it for?"

Qiqiao shook her head, "I called Hongyan in the courtyard, but no one answered, so I went inside and walked into the house. I called Second Miss, but still no one answered."

After letting out a long breath, Qiqiao continued, "Just as I was about to leave, I heard Hongyan crying and the sound of the teacup breaking. I was afraid, so I ran all the way back."

Qi Qiao is afraid, but Shen Tu is curious, who is hiding in the body of the Second Miss.

She suspected that it was the original owner of her current body. She remembered that Qiqiao said that when the original owner of her body was unhappy, he would take revenge on her.

But just because Qiqiao just said that she was scolding Hongyan, it cannot prove that she is the former Fifth Miss.

Qiqiao mentioned the candied haws that hadn't been delivered yet, and asked, "Miss, this candied haws..."

"No more." Shen Tu replied, "We will eat by ourselves."

Qiqiao nodded, "Miss, I don't dare to go to Second Miss's courtyard anymore."

Shen Tu smiled, "She doesn't eat people, so what are you afraid of?"

"Cannibal." Qi Qiao was anxious, "Chunrong is dead."

When Qiqiao mentioned Chunrong, Shen Tu thought of the woman who met Chunrong again. Does Chunrong's death have anything to do with that woman?

When she was free in the afternoon, Qiqiao sat on the stone steps in the yard, holding a bunch of candied haws she had carefully selected, and licking the sugar coating outside.

Shen Tu sneaked out through the back door. She is in a mess now. Since she fell into the water and became Miss Fifth, everything seems to be unclear.

The Xiao family was accused of treason, and Chunrong's death seemed to have never been peaceful.

In front is the Yuexiang cloth shop, Shen Tu is not interested in these patterns or materials, but the people standing outside the Yuexiang cloth shop seem familiar to her.

She did see it somewhere, probably not long ago.

Come to think of it, she was the one who met Chun Rong outside that day.

The man next to her is—

Leung?

Mrs. Liang should have never seen Qi Ye before, so Shen Cuo walked towards Yuexiangbu Village with a calm demeanor.

"Mother Qiu, look at this material, Chi'er will look good in it."

"Young master is handsome and handsome, you can wear anything."
