Ye Xuwan's hands in her sleeves trembled when she heard this, but her face was quiet and she was very obedient, "Your Highness, the Fifth Prince, was joking. It's a great blessing for a slave to serve his master. It's just that he's used to staying in one place. It's always a good idea to change to another place." It’s too much to bear.”

This was a polite rejection. Mo Changyu laughed and did not mention the matter again, but there was a little unspeakable gloom between his eyebrows.

When Mo Changyu finished eating and left, Ye Xuwan still put her head down and put away the dishes.

He mentioned this matter in front of Mo Yunzheng again and again. He had some agenda, and he didn't know what his intention was.

"Your Highness, the Fifth Prince, seems to be more diligent these days." Ye Xuwan's words contained a hint of temptation. She handed the bowl and chopsticks to the maid beside her and raised her head to look at Mo Yunzheng.

"He's a little more diligent," Mo Yunzheng's expression remained unchanged, he just leaned to the side, casually picked up a book and opened it to read, "If I give him another chance to get better, I don't know how much trouble he will cause to Gu."

Ye Xuwan was stunned, "Doesn't His Highness the Fifth Prince pose a threat?"

A person who is smart enough, even after so many years of recuperating his energy, and now starting to show his claws little by little, means that his wings are about to mature.

This kind of person is undoubtedly very scary.

Mo Yunzheng raised his eyes and glanced at her, "Why is there a threat?"

Ye Xuwan couldn't quite understand that Mo Yunzheng still looked like he had a chance to win.

It's impossible to take everything into account, Ye Xuwan knows this very well, but it's not easy for her to persuade Mo Yunzheng now.

"It's getting late, Your Highness, please rest early."

On the palace road, Ye Xuwan did not hold a lamp in her hand, but stood quietly in the shadow at the corner, quietly blending into the night.

Xiao Xizi squatted in the grass nearby and patted Ye Xuwan's shoulder carefully, "Little father-in-law Ye Xu, why don't we go back?"

His voice was trembling when he said this, and it could be seen that he was really scared.

"There may not be anyone there tonight. Is it possible that we have to wait here every night?"

Xiao Xizi sighed as he spoke. He always knew that Ye Xuwan couldn't bear the thought of being overheard.

But so far, they haven't encountered anything. Maybe the person who eavesdropped was not sent by any palace, but was just curious, so he had the courage to climb up the wall and eavesdrop.

Ye Xuwan just shook her head and said softly: "I asked someone to inquire about it these days. It is true that a eunuch has lost his hat and said he would come out to look for it today."

But no one came looking for a hat during the day, so it was only at night.

What kind of hat do you have to sneak out at night to find?
  There was a faint light from a lantern in the distance, and Ye Xuwan immediately patted Xiao Xizi on the shoulder, "Here we come."

The two young eunuchs who were originally arranged stood under the previous wall and talked.

Ye Xuwan watched helplessly as the eunuch put down the lantern, and then carefully climbed up the wall to check. His hands and feet were deft, and it was obvious that he had done this a lot.

"Walk."

Ye Xuwan immediately followed Xiao Xizi out of the darkness, "Who is here? How dare you sneak around outside His Royal Highness's palace. Someone come and capture the assassin!"

The eunuch was startled and froze on the wall, neither coming down nor coming down.

When he was surrounded by guards, the eunuch had no choice but to be left alone.

Ye Xuwan sneered, looking at the eunuch being pinned to the ground, she imitated a bit of Mo Yunzheng's aura, "Tell me, why did you sneak up on the palace wall in the middle of the night?!"

The eunuch trembled with fright, "Slave...slave Xiao Dezi, I just dropped my hat here a few days ago. I didn't dare to hit the nobleman during the day, so I came out at night..." "Why did you crawl out to look for your hat at night?" On the palace wall?" Ye Xuwan looked at him, "You still haven't told the truth!"

Xiao Xizi never expected that she would be able to squat like this at night.

Xiao Dezi trembled and knelt on the ground. He really didn't look like a brave man. If it weren't for the guards holding him down from left to right, he might have been lying on the ground by now.

"This slave is really just a handyman eunuch!" Xiao Dezi was shaking like chaff, and his voice was crying, "This slave is really innocent! I beg Eunuch Ye to spare my life!"

"What did you call me?" Ye Xuwan stared at him and gently rubbed her sleeves.

Xiao Dezi sobbed: "Eunuch Xiao Yezi!"

Ye Xuwan sighed, the emotion in her eyes unclear, "Why are you so stubborn?"

"Detain the person first, and then deal with it tomorrow after His Highness wakes up. If the empress of any palace asks about it tomorrow, it would be nice to have an explanation."
-
  "I heard that you arrested an eunuch yesterday?" Mo Yunzheng's voice was calm and he looked at her with lowered eyes.

Ye Xuwan paused while tying his belt. No wonder she didn't want Xiao Xizi today. It turned out that she was here waiting to ask her something.

"Yes, Your Highness, do you still remember what happened a few days ago? The slave only picked up a hat at that time. He was afraid that someone would do something bad to Your Highness, so he paid more attention. Unexpectedly, he actually caught it last night."

Mo Yunzheng understood, "What's the matter?"

"No, I asked him everything and he said he was just looking for a hat," Ye Xuwan said, slightly bending her eyes, but there was no smile deep in her eyes, "But he knows what the slave's name is."

Mo Yunzheng paused slightly and straightened his sleeves.

Xiao Yezi looked at the stranger, and it must be an eunuch who didn't come here very often.

How could a eunuch who didn't come here often know who "Little Ye Ye's father-in-law" was?

"Go and see."

Mo Yunzheng said and walked away. For some reason, Ye Xuwan always felt uneasy, as if something was about to happen.

She was just stunned for a moment, then someone from the front urged her, "Don't you want to follow?"

"Oh! It's coming."

There was a newly renovated firewood shed at the end of the small kitchen. Xiao Dezi was locked in it, especially in a miserable state, with a piece of rag stuffed in his mouth and tied into a rice dumpling.

As soon as he saw Mo Yunzheng, Xiao Dezi started to hesitate to talk.

Ye Xuwan stepped forward and pulled out the cloth from his mouth, and scolded him sharply: "Hurry up and say it!"

Xiao Dezi shouted that he was wronged and burst into tears, "Your Highness the Crown Prince! Your Highness the Crown Prince! This servant just wanted to pick up a hat, but unexpectedly he was kidnapped indiscriminately by Eunuch Xiao Ye! "

Ye Xuwan's temples throbbed because of his crying, and she had a severe headache.

Mo Yunzheng was very interested and turned back to look at Ye Xuwan, "Really?"

Meeting Mo Yunzheng's eyes, Ye Xuwan felt for a moment that she was being targeted by some large hunting animal, and subconsciously looked away.

"How come I don't know that Little Ye Zi's father-in-law is so capable of confusing right and wrong?" The curve of Mo Yunzheng's lips never dropped, and his eyes were already vaguely scrutinizing.

Ye Xuwan was horrified when she heard this. Is this because others started to suspect her of colluding with others after just two sentences? !
