The maidservant who led the way smiled, and in the next moment she disappeared. She then bowed respectfully to An Lingge, "Miss An, please follow me."
She brought An Lingge to the guest room, watched as she walked behind the screen, and then quietly left the house. Just as she was about to lock the door, she saw that An Lingge, who was supposed to be changing her clothes, had already arrived.
An Lingge knocked out the servant who was leading the way and went back along the same path they came across Mu Junhan.
"Why is Hereditary Prince Mu here?" She frowned, as if she could meet this person anywhere.
Looking at An Lingge's gloomy expression, a trace of laughter flashed across Mu Junhan's narrow and long phoenix eyes.
"This is the front yard where we entertain our men. Miss An should not ask herself why she did not come to the female banquet?" He recalled the words of the Madam Li and guessed that An Lingge must have been tricked by someone. She was very curious as to what she would do next.
Sure enough, after An Lingge heard this, surprise flashed past her eyes.
She only knew that the Princess Yi and the Madam Li were going to make a move against her, but she didn't know that this was actually the front courtyard.
With a thought, An Lingge understood Madam Li's plan.
She raised her head to look at Mu Junhan's enchanter-like face, and the corner of her mouth suddenly raised into a strange smile, "Hereditary Prince Mu doesn't want An Lingyi to marry you either, right?"
His laughter made Mu Junhan feel that he had been tricked, but he could not suppress the curiosity in his heart. He followed her words and said, "That's right, what are Miss An's plans?"
An Lingyi laughed even more craftily as she lowered her voice to speak of her plans.
Mu Junhan flew towards An Lingge with his eyebrows raised high, the corners of his mouth held a trace of playfulness, as he indistinctly approached An Lingge, "I'll follow your plan, but Miss An, do you owe me a favor if you ask for my help? "How are you going to repay me?"
"If you help me get rid of my scheme, I will help you get rid of An Lingyi. We can win together for mutual benefit, how can this be counted as me owing Hereditary Prince Mu a favor?" An Lingge was not moved, but she took a step back, and stayed further away from Mu Junhan.
Mu Junhan declined to comment. He only made a gesture, and Shu Mo appeared out of thin air.
"Go and hand this thing over to Miss An Er, just say it …"
Madam Li and Princess Yi at the banquet were talking happily. Seeing that An Lingge was taken away by the servant girl, they exchanged a look of tacit understanding.
"If this matter succeeds, Ru Xue, you will be our benefactor in Prince Yi’s Palace."
Princess Yi called out her name, her expression carrying a bit of lament.
Madam Li laughed, "Who do you think you are my benefactor? You have also seen An Lingge's appearance and bearing, every single one of you came from the mortal world, and wanted to marry into the Prince Mu’s Palace. However, since her birth mother had passed away, no one had taught her any rules. If she had angered her, Prince Mu’s Palace would not be good at all. It just so happened that you had someone ask me that I was discussing with old master about marrying An Lingge into the Prince Yi’s Palace. With you taking care of her, I naturally feel at ease. "
Princess Yi still did not know about An Lingge and Mu Junhan's engagement, so she raised her eyebrows in shock, "An Lingge and Hereditary Prince Mu are engaged? Then what if she marries into our Palace, what about the Prince Mu’s Palace? "
"The Emperor has only ordered for Prince Mu’s Palace and Prince An's Palace to be wedded, he has not designated which Miss. If An Lingge makes cooked rice with your Hereditary Prince, naturally, she will marry in her place. "
Madam Li didn't conceal anything from him. She was relieved.
She was originally worried that Madam Li agreeing to marry An Lingge into the Prince Yi’s Palace with ease must have some sort of request, as she had already made preparations to wait for Madam Li's big mouth.
Who knew that the Madam Li was paving the way for their own daughter, then they would benefit each other, and wouldn't owe each other anything.
"Don't worry, everything has been arranged properly. An Lingge will definitely become Little Ming's man today."
The two people who were immersed in joy did not realize that An Lingyi, who was originally seated at the banquet, had disappeared without them knowing when.
Seeing that the time was almost right, Princess Yi suddenly slapped her forehead, as if she suddenly came to a realization, "It's already been an incense's time, why is Miss An still not back yet?"
Madam Li immediately chimed in, her voice echoing, "Did something happen? Princess Yi, please help me find Little Ge. If something happens to her, how am I supposed to explain it to Master? "
"Don't worry Ru Xue, since Miss An is at the Prince Yi’s Palace, I definitely won't call for any accidents to happen to her."
"Miss An has still not returned yet. Ru Xue is worried, so I will bring some people to look for me. Please forgive me."
Many of the lower status wives wanted to climb up the Prince Yi’s Palace, so they hurriedly replied, "Why don't we follow the wangfei, and find the Miss An even faster."
This was exactly what he wanted.
Princess Yi and Madam Li looked at each other and thanked the passionate wives. A large group of people searched the backyard, but could not find anyone.
Madam Li's face suddenly turned white, and said: "Oh no, Little Ge couldn't have gotten lost and went to the front yard, right?"
The front yard was a place to entertain male guests, why would Miss An be there?
While some of them were thinking about this, they heard from the Princess Yi, "Only the front yard has not been searched. I will lead the people there now."
Madam Li immediately followed along. The other wives also followed along because it was not easy to leave halfway. They had no choice but to follow them into the courtyard.
Princess Yi brought his men and inadvertently pushed open each guest room, and when they saw the handkerchief that was dropped outside the door, their eyes suddenly lit up.
"That's Little Ge's handkerchief! Little Ge must be here!"
Madam Li was the first to rush over, pushing open the door to the guest room.
The light from the open door shone into the room, revealing the two bodies intertwined. Although they were both wearing clothes, many people still cried out in alarm.
Princess Yi covered her mouth in shock, "Why is Miss An with Little Ming?"
She pointed out the identities of those two, and a servant rushed forward to separate them.
"Madam Li took a step forward, and tears instantly flowed down her face." Little Ge, how could you be so bold as to seduce Hereditary Prince and do such a shameless thing! How can I explain this to your dead mother, and how can I explain this to Master! "
She looked very much like a stepmother who doted on her daughter, and only her eyes sparkled with a sinister light.
Everyone knew that Hereditary Prince of the Prince Yi’s Palace was a fool, and that a fool would naturally not take the initiative to get along with a woman.
Everyone's minds turned, their hearts filled with contempt for An Lingge, when suddenly they heard the ear-piercing scream from the girls in the house, "Ah! Who are you, Hereditary Prince Mu? Why isn't Hereditary Prince Mu here? "
An Lingyi raised her head in fear and looked outside, seeing that face clearly before everyone's eyes.
Yi Er, why is the person in the house Yi Er?
Madam Li's face instantly turned pale and her hand that was wiping away her tears trembled. Her vision turned black and she almost fainted.
