Cao Qing sniffed at the sky and smelled a woman's fragrance, then extended his hand out to his pillow and opened it up. Yo, a red peony apron! As his body warmed up, he took it over and carefully smelled it, and he immediately knew who it was. The others did not have this incense yet, but in the entire house, only one person had this incense on him: Shui Er!

Ever since Shui Er entered the Cao Mansion, he had started to think about her, wanting to enjoy life on her own once his father's freshness had passed. Now that I smell this apron, what does this woman mean? Was it some hint to him? After Cao Qing laughed, a plan came to mind.

The only thing he was afraid of in this mansion was Cao Nan! The more he thought about it, the more Cao Qing felt uncomfortable. He summoned the servants and asked: "Where did my father go tonight?"

"Back to the Second Young Master, to the Charming Fragrance Garden of the Lady Fragrance."

"Alright, come with me." Cao Qing casually put on his clothes and took out a small red porcelain bottle from the treasure box. The servants who were nearby immediately knew what kind of medicine it was, and thought to themselves: Didn't the Second Young Master not want women? Which woman's bed are you going to crawl into today? Earlier, he asked where the Master was.

"Second Young Master, you want to go …" Inside Lady Shui Er's house? Before the servant could say anything, Cao Qing had already left.

There were still seven or eight women living in Shui Er's courtyard. She did not have a single room to herself since the other women in the courtyard were not favoured by her. Only Xi Wan Feng's favoured woman would be able to live in a courtyard alone. Previously, they had fawned over Shui Er because they thought that they would be able to get a share of the cake if the Prime Minister Cao came.

It was a peaceful night, so Cao Qing found his way to Shui Er's room and fumbled his way in. Where did Shui Er go to sleep? At night, they ran to the Charming Fragrance Garden. This was a slap in the face for them.

"Who?" Shui Er was in the middle of sulking when she heard a sound coming from the outer room's door. She thought that it would be a servant but when she heard the person's voice, she immediately became alert. She was only fourteen or fifteen years old, but her heart was actually very simple.

"Little beauty, I'm here!" Cao Qing's voice sounded from the dark room. Upon hearing that it wasn't a bandit, Shui Er immediately let out a breath of relief, and then she raised his voice and cried out: "You, what are you doing in here? Get out of here."

"Why did I come in? Of course, I came at your invitation." In the darkness, Cao Qing's pig face looked just like a terrifying ghost face. Wasn't the undergarment that he was holding in her hand her own?

He pointed to his undergarment and asked, "This, this, why is it with you?"

"Of course it's from you, Beauty!" Cao Qing even shamelessly inhaled with all his might, as if he was inhaling the world's best scent. "Smells good, smells really good."

"You … "Shameless." Shui Er hated Cao Qing. Although the father and son looked similar, the Prime Minister Cao had a dignified and reserved personality, unlike Cao Qing who was a ruffian and hated people to the core. Just looking at them was enough to make people want to puke. Thus, he still liked the Prime Minister Cao a little more.

"Aiya, that's what I like to call you." Cao Qing took out a porcelain bottle and ate a pill, she rubbed her hands together and rushed towards Shui Er. The next morning, a maidservant's call was heard. It was so loud that the entire courtyard knew about it.

Everyone knew that 'Second Young Master Cao slept with Lady Shui Er' during breakfast. Xi Wan Feng bit his lips and brought a servant out of the house in order to nominate a robe for Prime Minister Cao. In reality, he wanted to take a walk around.

It was cold outside, the wind was blowing from time to time, and there were few people on the road. The carriage was unobstructed. Suddenly, Xi Wan Feng saw a person, and his entire body went ice-cold. Yan Er!

Madame Yan? The woman her father loved most! Wasn't she dead? Xi Wan Feng was confused. He stared at Yan Er's figure as if he wanted to see a hole. Xi Wan Feng stared at her luxurious and extraordinary robes and bellowed: Stop.

Xi Wan Feng raised the curtain on the carriage and supported the servant with his hands, calling the beautiful lady dressed in noble clothes:, please hold on.

Dressed in the attire of a noble woman, Yan Er should be called the Fourth Concubine now: Meng Ru Yan! She turned her head and glanced at the approaching person. She already knew Xi Wan Feng's true identity, so she asked: ", you called me?"

"Yes." Xi Wan Feng's smile did not falter, and he laughed: "Madame looks very similar to an old friend I know, I wonder who you are?"

The maidservant by his side had a haughty look on his face. "This is the fourth prince's consort." Just by looking at the woman in front of him, he could tell that she was not a good person. She had a demonic aura around her.

"Fourth prince's consort?" Xi Wan Feng was not small. It was rumored that the Fourth Prince and his imperial concubine were both extremely beautiful people, to the point where they could overturn empires with a single look. What caused her to be even more shocked was that the identity of the woman in front of her was even colder and more noble than Yan Er. Previously, Yan Er was like a lotus flower that made people unable to profane, but this person actually had an extraordinary noble aura. At first glance, apart from their similar appearances, they were basically the same person.

There was actually such a similar person in this world? Xi Jiu Er's appearance was very normal, it was not strange that she looked similar, but the lady in front of him was different, it was rare to see her appearance, it was not something that could be found easily. Carrying doubts in her heart, Xi Wan Feng bowed: "I've disturbed the mood of the Fourth Prince's consort!"

Meng Ru Yan looked at her indifferently, then left with his servant.

In Song Mansion, when Xi Jiu Er said that the Fourth Prince's consort was here, half of his sleepiness immediately disappeared. With a wave of his hand, Ge La withdrew himself. "Don't bother me anymore."

After approximately half an incense worth of time, Xi Jiu Er woke up to see a woman with a refined appearance sitting in front of a table. Seeing her wake up, he smiled. "We meet again."

"Ge La, wait at the door." Xi Jiu Er stood up and instructed, she sat beside Meng Ru Yan: "How have you been?"

"Everything is fine." Meng Ru Yan seemed to sigh, "I never expected us to meet in such a situation." He stared at the human skin mask for a while and didn't know what to say. He silently stared at the tea in his cup and didn't say anything.

Xi Jiu Er was also silent.

"Let's talk about the fourth prince." Meng Ru Yan seemed to have found a topic to talk about, and his face became lively: "The Fourth Prince and I are not husband and wife, it's just a family alliance, that's all. As for the Xi Family, it's all our doing! Xi Hong Sheng and I have never had anything happen to each other, so I would give him medicine every night.

Xi Jiu Er interrupted: "I don't want to know this, don't say anymore."

"Jiu Er..." Meng Ru Yan choked, seeing the unnoticeable pain in Xi Jiu Er's eyes, she sighed: "Fourth Prince -"

"Don't tell me about that lunatic, I don't want to hear about it." Xi Jiu Er said softly. She did not want to see Meng Ru Yan, so when she saw him, she immediately thought of his deceit.
