Chapter 78 Pretending to be a Handmaid
"Mom, what's the secret?"

Chu Yu's curiosity was aroused, and she couldn't help asking.

"Okay, don't ask, you just need to know that we will be fine."

Jiang patted Chu Yu's shoulder to reassure her.

At this time, a figure hiding in the dark of the dungeon quickly retreated.

……

Princess House.

"Did Jiang really say that?" Chu Baihan sat in front of the mirror, she said in a cold voice.

Behind her, the dark guard was telling her what he heard from the prison.

"Yes, princess, this is what my subordinates heard."

Hearing this, Chu Baihan slowly stood up from the chair, her cold brows and eyes flickered a bit.

What did Jiang's words mean?
Mother, what's the secret...

In fact, she is not mother's biological daughter.The mother was pregnant with a child back then, but it was a pity that Jiang's plan made the child stillborn.

The nanny just picked up an abandoned baby. In order not to make the mother sad, she pretended that the abandoned baby was born by her.

She, Chu Baihan, is this abandoned baby.

The reason why she was abandoned was not because her father, queen and empress were cruel to not want her.

Speaking of which, the situation in Nanduan Country is more complicated...

But no matter what, she called Xu's mother for so many years, and she was her own mother.

Does Mrs. Jiang know this secret?
No, in Jiang's eyes, "Chu Baihan" is dead, and this secret should not be of value.

Moreover, Jiang's argument is that the mother's secret is related to the emperor.

what is it?

Thinking about it, Chu Baihan felt a little headache.

"Princess, are you okay?" Ruolan asked worriedly.

Ever since the princess narrowly escaped death, she suffered from some physical problems, often prone to headaches.

"It's okay, I'm used to it." Chu Baihan said calmly.

She turned her head, looked at Dongqing who had gotten up from the bed, and said softly, "Holly, thank you for your hard work."

"Princess, this is what a servant should do." Dongqing nodded seriously.

After taking the medicine that Ruolan handed over, she drank it all in one gulp and lay down on the bed again. Soon, she passed out.

Chu Baihan walked to the bedside and took her pulse. Her fake pulse was indeed true enough to fool the imperial doctors.

"Ruolan, you continue to guard Dongqing, and you must never let irrelevant people get close to her. But if the emperor sends someone to check the situation, you should make more noise." Chu Baihan ordered to Ruolan.

Ruolan nodded quickly: "Yes, princess, this servant knows how to do it."

If things get serious, the emperor and the others will naturally throw themselves into chaos.

"Tonight, the princess is going to visit the treasury first." Chu Baihan continued.

"Princess, do you need a servant to accompany you?" Ruolan asked anxiously.

"No need, you continue to guard Dongqing, and Nan Xing is fine with this princess."

Hearing this, Ruolan was not persistent either.

Back then, when people from the Tang Sect sent the three of them to Nanduan Kingdom, she knew that the master was the royal daughter of Nanduan King.

They have practiced martial arts with the princess since then.

In the past six years, the princess has become a master that even the generals of the Nanduan Kingdom dare not underestimate, and Nanxing is not bad, only she is still a three-legged cat.

It is true that Nan Xing is more reliable than her when she goes to work with the princess.

Soon, Chu Baihan put on the human skin mask, and she restrained her aura a bit, so she became a maid with an ordinary face and an ordinary temperament.

After making sure everything was okay, she opened the door and went out.

Because of "Nan Baihan"'s accident, the entire Princess Mansion was guarded by Yan Guo's guards.

The atmosphere in the mansion is also very depressing.

Chu Baihan lowered her head, her goal was the gate.

But when she walked to the gate, she didn't expect to run into Yan Lin and Yan Lian head-on.

Yan Lin was full of awe, his good-looking face was a bit imperceptibly tired, probably because he hadn't been able to rest for the past two days.

"Has Chu Hesheng not been found yet?" He asked Yan Lian sharply.

Yan Lian said helplessly: "This Chu Hesheng is very cunning. Our people have been searching for a long time, but we haven't found any trace of him."

"Call out all the soldiers and horses from Linwang's mansion, and they will definitely catch them!" Yan Lin said with a cold face.

Hearing this, Chu Baihan paused slightly.

She is in a very complicated mood...

She designed to frame the Chu family, and originally wanted the emperor to hold the Chu family accountable.

But she did not expect that Yan Lin would have such a reaction.

For what reason did he want to avenge "Nan Baihan"?

Forget it, he's not worth her trouble.

After thinking about it, Chu Baihan wanted to continue walking outside.

But suddenly, a cold voice came from behind her: "Stop, who are you?"

Sensing the sharp eyes coming from behind, Chu Baihan froze.

But her voice was still pretending to be calm: "Reporting to the Eighth Prince, this slave is the maid of the Princess Mansion."

Under the long sleeves, she clenched her fingers tightly, trying to calm herself down.

"The maidservants in the entire princess mansion have been interrogated by this king, why hasn't this king seen you?" Yan Lin said sharply again.

Chu Baihan clenched his fingers a little harder.

She did not expect that Yan Lin actually remembered all the maids in the Princess Mansion.

She continued to lower her head, pretending to be timid and said: "The servant called Dongqing, and came from Nanduan Kingdom with the princess. The servant is not in the mansion these two days, so it is normal for the prince not to see the servant."

"As the maidservant of your eldest princess, why are you not in the mansion?"

Yan Lin's tone became a bit sharper, and his deep eyes seemed to see through her.

This maid, obviously everything is very strange, but it just gave him a very strange feeling.

"The princess said that she likes to eat cakes from people outside the capital, so the slaves went to buy them on purpose, but when they came back, the city gates were closed, so they came back after guarding outside for the whole night. I can't believe that...the princess has encountered such a thing."

As Chu Baihan spoke, tears came out of his eyes.

She looks like a loyal servant girl.

"Brother Eight Emperors, I asked the officials from Nanduan Kingdom yesterday, and there was indeed such a maid who was not in the mansion at that time, and she was indeed called Dongqing." Yan Lian reminded in a low voice.

He also didn't understand, wasn't Brother Huang always anxious to find out about the murderer?Why do you suddenly have time to interrogate a maidservant?

Hearing Yan Lian's words, Chu Baihan raised his eyebrows with his head down.

They had been prepared for a long time and specially transferred Dongqing out of the princess mansion.

When the chessboard starts to turn, she is Holly, and Holly is her.

She thought that she had reached this point, and with Yan Lian helping her to speak, a certain Prince Lin should give up.

Who knew, Yan Lin actually sneered: "Speaking so timidly and cowardly, it doesn't look like a maid she raised at all."

Chu Baihan: "..."

Did he think she knew her well?
Clenching her fists, she clenched her teeth, almost hiding her temper.

This change in her mood was caught by Yan Lin, his eyes darkened, feeling strange in his heart.

At that moment just now, he actually felt that she was very familiar, he must have been stunned.
