"How is it? How did your young miss react after hearing your words? " Zi Ye, who was waiting at the back door of the Assistant Minister’s Residence, looked at Ju Xiang who was rushing over and asked curiously.
Ju Xiang's face was extremely anxious, looking at Zi Ye's curious expression, his face was filled with disdain, "Could it be that it's too excessive? My family's young miss heard Prince Zhan's dying words and she anxiously ran out of the Assistant Minister’s Residence. I couldn't catch up to her."
In order to catch up with the princess, the prince specially called the stronghold's advisor, Wen Guang, over from the border. That brat, Wen Guang, made a three-step plan to make sure that the prince would chase after the princess, and the first step was to make the princess realize that she was paying more and more attention to the prince. Zi Ye patiently explained to Ju Xiang.
"Your prince is really reckless. I see that my young miss is also very considerate towards him. She might be a bit thin-skinned, but she won't admit it. Can't you let your prince directly come and propose marriage?" Ju Xiang asked Zi Ye with a disdainful look.
"My prince has almost broken his heart, your young miss has rejected him several times." Zi Ye said while looking at Ju Xiang seriously.
Ju Xiang did not dare be certain now, she was following the young miss around everyday. From her understanding, the young miss would definitely like the Duke. The Young Miss had actually rejected the prince, so the Young Miss definitely didn't like Young Master Xiao as well. "Could it be Young Master Qingfeng?" Ju Xiang thought for a while, and unexpectedly, he couldn't help but say the words in his heart.
"Who?" Zi Ye heard a strange name from Ju Xiang's mouth and his eyes became colder. Thinking about how he could get some information from Ju Xiang, he smiled and changed his face, "Little sister Ju Xiang, do you know if your young miss has someone else in her heart?"
"No …" "No, hur hur." Ju Xiang naturally realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly pretended to be extremely anxious as he drove them away, "Quickly go back to the Duke Palaces and arrange for me to return. We made three plans in earnest, don't let the first step go unplanned and end the plan. If your prince continues to blame you, it won't just be a joke. " Ju Xiang smiled at Zi Ye and said, while urging her to go.
Zi Ye glanced at Ju Xiang, as if he agreed with him and left.
Nangong Waner naturally knew that the news of Prince Zhan dying was fake, but he could not help but feel a lot of worry in his heart. What if Chu Xiuhan, who had a stubborn temper, really did not want to be treated?
He sprinted all the way to the Prince Zhan's Mansion, but when he just saw the main entrance of the Prince Zhan's Mansion, then looked at the palace guards and the palace gates, how everything looked normal, it didn't look like the Prince Zhan would be able to recover from his injuries and he would die soon.
Nangong Waner smacked himself on the head, and then "Aiya!" He was blaming himself for not having any prospects for life, and despised himself in the depths of his heart.
"There has never been a single truth to the rumors and rumors about Shangjing. I was truly worried, hah." Nangong Waner had just touched the gate of the Duke Palace, but before he could get close, he turned around, planning to return to the Duke Palace.
"Miss! "Miss!" Liu Hong, who had been waiting outside the Palace for a long time, saw Nangong Waner walk closer. He wanted to talk to Nangong Waner urgently, but was stopped by Wen Guang.
"Don't go, the time is not right yet. According to my observations, Miss Nangong is also an intelligent person, all this time we have been running here, although we were previously worried, but now we have discovered that we threw false information to Ju Xiang, and realised that our Prince's injuries are fake." Wen Guang blocked Liu Hong from revealing any more information to Nangong Waner, "According to our plan, the first step is to let Miss Nangong discover our intentions and admit it.
However, Liu Hong did not listen to Wen Guang's advice. Seeing that Nangong Waner had walked far away, he anxiously chased after him. "Miss," Liu Hong called out to him, "Are you here to see the Duke?"
At this time, Liu Hong was no longer standing in front of that ice cold and obedient maid manager in front of her. Instead, he was standing in front of this little girl who cared for her, standing up for her.
"I was just passing by. Hur Hur, I was just passing by." Nangong Waner said unnaturally.
Miss, your highness has truly treated you with sincerity. Ever since you were injured on the street that day, your highness has always been dispirited and dispirited, it has been a few days since you went to court, the entire Shangjing City is in a state of panic. Miss, it is true that your highness is about to die, but the injury to your heart is true. Liu Hong pulled Nangong Waner and did not let him leave, as they continued to persuade him.
Nangong Waner had never seen Liu Hong like this, he did not know how to react as he explained to Liu Hong, "Liu Hong, I appreciate your kindness, I know you are sincere towards me, and hope that I am together with your master, but, it is really impossible for me to be together with your master."
"Miss, what are you thinking? What's wrong with my Prince? " Liu Hong asked again in a hurry.
"There's nothing wrong with that. That's great." Nangong Waner used some force and pulled out his arm that was being held by Liu Hong. Soon after, Nangong Waner fled in panic.
Not long after Nangong Waner fled, the Prince Zhan walked out from the shadows, "Wen Guang, this step can be considered as half a defeat, but at least let this king witness how capable you can be. Leave it in Shangjing City and work for this king."
Wen Guang was very happy when he heard it, and could not help but laugh.
Go to the warehouse and pick out some rewards for Liu Hong. The Prince Zhan was in a rare good mood as he instructed the butler of the Duke Palace.
Wen Guang was a little confused, "Why is Your Highness so happy that you haven't even stepped into the palace?"
Zi Ye pretended to be extremely understanding, and imitated how the steward of the Prince's Mansion used to play with him, "You don't understand, the Prince loves the Miss Nangong, and has always loved him lowly."
"Your Highness, humble … When I get back to the border, I'll definitely tell Grandpa Wen about it. " Wen Guang looked at Zi Ye and said seriously.
Nangong Waner stepped on the snow not far from the Duke's Palace, and in his mind, he did not know what he had been thinking about. "Creak, creak, creak." He stepped on the snow beneath his feet, and only after knowing that the snow beneath his feet had been stepped on until it was smooth and flat, did Nangong Waner organize his thoughts, as if he had regained his composure. "Right, how can I give up on the pursuit of my life?"
Nangong Waner was referring to the pursuit of her life as a man. After forcefully rousing herself, she walked in the direction of the wanhua tavern.
Why did it have to close down for half a year just a few days ago and today, it has turned into a imperial seal that will never be opened again?" Nangong Wan'er was a little resentful. Powerful politics could be found everywhere. It was not easy for these commoners to live on.
"Bang!" Bang! "Bam!" Nangong Waner knocked on the wanhua tavern sealed door, "Is there anyone here, boss, is there anyone here?" Nangong Waner used a lot of effort to knock on the door.
"What are you doing? You're not even going to open your store yet you're knocking on my door? You'll pay if you break it." 's mother, manager, had only opened the door a crack. Through the crack, the mother in charge squeezed out her face and said to Nangong Waner fiercely.
"Hehe, mommy, a few days ago, I came to wanhua tavern to look for a man. Mommy, I would like to ask, where did the men from wanhua tavern go?" Nangong Waner smiled, and cutely asked manager's mother.
manager's mother could not remember that such a beautiful girl had come to the wanhua tavern before, so she said rudely: "What kind of man is there, he's already been captured and sent to the army."
"Army... Shang Liang... It's such a waste! " Nangong Waner was very sad and angry. She wanted to ask manager's mother if there were any other ways to be a man, but manager's mother impatiently shut the door with a "bang".
"Mother manager …" Just as Nangong Waner raised his hand, wanting to knock on the door to ask again, he did not expect the door to suddenly open again, causing manager's mother to warn him even more fiercely, "Hurry up, if you knock again, I will cut your hand off."
Nangong Waner was a little afraid, but he still took the initiative to close the door with wanhua tavern.
