It would not be so easy to meet Prince Jing!

Many people said that His Highness Prince Jing was fond of the dishes in Fortune Tower and often came. But there were few who really saw him and recognized him.

Cheng Yifei had not seen this prince for almost three months, and he was pleasantly surprised. In the entire Tianyan Kingdom, the only person he truly revered was His Highness Prince Jing.

Just as he was about to put Gu Feiyan down and go up to pay his respects, he saw Prince Jing give him a meaningful glance. It was only then that he remembered that there were a lot of people here. His Highness Prince Jing didn't want to reveal his identity. He looked at the people around him and chuckled to himself. If he and Gu Feiyan hadn't stole the limelight, Prince Jing's noble demeanor would have attracted everyone's attention just by casually standing in the crowd.

Unable to give a formal bow, Cheng Yifei secretly used his hands to replace his feet and made a kneeling gesture.

However, Jun Jiuchen didn't pay any attention to him. As he walked, he was also staring at Gu Feiyan, who was being carried on his back. For some inexplicable reason, Cheng Yifei felt somewhat guilty. Even though Jun Jiuchen was staring at Gu Feiyan, he didn't stop walking, as if nothing had happened. He casually walked past Cheng Yifei and climbed the stairs, and almost no one could see what he was doing.

Cheng Yifei did not dare to look back under the watchful eyes of the crowd, but Jun Jiuchen turned back on the stairs. He was still looking at Gu Feiyan, but it was a pity that she didn't know what had happened. Cheng Yifei stopped. She thought that Cheng Yifei wanted to do something excessive in public to threaten her.

Cheng Yifei stood there for a while before continuing to walk out the door. Gu Feiyan secretly let out a sigh of relief.

When they had just reached the door, deputy general Zhou hurried forward, "General, just now His Highness Prince Jing entered. Did you meet him?"

When Gu Feiyan heard this, she suddenly realized why Cheng Yifei had suddenly stopped and stood still for so long.

So it turned out that Prince Jing had come!

What a coincidence...

Gu Feiyan subconsciously raised her head to look at the door, but she didn't see Prince Jing’s carriage. Instead, she saw a crowd of spectators, so she hurriedly lowered her head.

She thought, if His Highness Prince Jing didn't reveal his identity, even if she saw him, she wouldn't be able to recognize him. This was the second time they had met by chance. Unfortunately, she still couldn't see the face of this legendary prince.

Cheng Yifei didn't pay attention to deputy general Zhou. He strode towards the carriage and threw Gu Feiyan into it. He then boarded the carriage himself, and returned to the military camp.

The carriage drove off, but the liveliness at Fortune Tower still lingered on. Since the opening of Fortune Tower, it had probably never been so lively before. The sounds of discussions almost made the roof fall off.

At this time, Jun Jiuchen had already arrived at the private room on the second floor. He opened the window to take a look outside and saw the back of Cheng Yifei's carriage. His gaze was cold and profound as he watched the carriage gradually grow further away, making it impossible for anyone to understand what he was thinking. He was still watching the carriage even after it had disappeared. It was unknown whether he was deep in thought or simply in a daze.

Soon, the guard, Mang Zhong, delivered the report.

"Your Highness, everything has been investigated. The ten days holiday for Gu Feiyan was made by the eldest miss of General Qi's Mansion, Qi Fufang. Last night, the Qi Family had failed to break off the engagement. This action should have been to force Miss Gu to agree to break off the engagement. From the investigation conducted by this subordinate in the past few days, it seemed that the Qi Family was not the least bit suspicious about the prescription. As for Gu Feiyan, this girl, we're really full of doubts. "

Jun Jiuchen closed the window and turned around, "What do you mean?"

"This subordinate has only investigated her background, and the past two days I have also investigated her performance at the Imperial Pharmacy. Her medical skills have always been mediocre and she has suffered quite a bit at the Imperial Pharmacy. But that night, her temper and ability changed. "

As Mang Zhong spoke, he grew more and more puzzled. "Your Highness, this girl can't be an impostor, right? Or had she been bribed? Could it be that there is someone like us who knows that the prescription is deceptive and decided to save the situation? "

Jun Jiuchen pondered, but didn't come to a conclusion. That day, he had personally intercepted Gu Feiyan and sent someone to prepare and deliver medicine. Unfortunately, Gu Feiyan had made a move first.

"Your Highness, General Cheng’s conduct is too high-profile and unreliable! He still hasn't found anything about Eunuch Wu. How about we …"

Before Mang Zhong could finish his sentence, Jun Jiuchen interrupted him and said coldly, "For Eunuch Wu’s side, let Xiaoman follow closely. You don't have to worry about Gu Feiyan."

"Then who will …" Mang Zhong stopped and thought, could it be that His Highness is going to watch her personally?

Although General Cheng’s murder attempt was a major event, it wasn't as if His Highness was personally watching over him. The Emperor's illness was getting worse, and the crown prince was too young, so His Highness had to help the crown prince solve many problems. There were still matters of his own. Where in the world did he get the free time to keep watch on someone?

Mang Zhong quickly persuaded. "Your Highness, there is Xiaoman keeping watch on Eunuch Wu. The evidence is almost gathered. If you hand Gu Feiyan to this subordinate, I will handle it. "

Jun Jiuchen asked, "Even Cheng Yifei can't handle her. Can you handle her?"

Uh...

Mang Zhong didn't know what to say. His Highness had just decided that Cheng Yifei couldn't handle that girl, Gu Feiyan, which was too arbitrary. He didn't know whether to say that His Highness overestimated Gu Feiyan or underestimated Cheng Yifei. He really wanted to ask, "Who can make such a decision?" But he didn't dare to.

Jun Jiuchen sat down and began to eat quietly. He was wearing a white robe today, which made him look less domineering. Even when he ate, it gave people a feeling like he was an otherworldly existence. He was not an immortal, but he was cold to the extreme!

The whole Fortune Tower was still noisy, but here he was like a quiet world. He did not like to talk during meals, so Mang Zhong stood aside, not daring to make a sound.

After dinner, Jun Jiuchen left the city, heading towards the east military camp.

In less than half a day, everyone in the capital knew what had happened in Fortune Tower. No matter how many rumors were spread, there were two things that were indisputable. The first was that Cheng Yifei had carried Gu Feiyan into Fortune Tower, and the second was that Cheng Yifei had carried her out of Fortune Tower and returned to the military camp.

There was no need to talk about the reactions of the two elders from the Gu Family. The entire Qi Family was boiling all over!

General Qi and Madam Xu were extremely angry, especially after hearing that Qi Yu had gone to cancel the engagement that night and had been threatened with abuse by Gu Feiyan. They couldn't bear it any longer.

General Qi was furious, "That little bastard Cheng Yifei is simply going too far! He had gone too far! No, this won't do. This general will enter the palace now and let the Emperor judge the situation!"

Madam Xu hastened to persuade him. "General, you absolutely cannot! If this matter were to be reported to the Emperor, wouldn't that mean …Cheng Yifei got what he wanted. Wouldn't that be the same as admitting that brat Cheng Yifei put a green hat on our family's head!"

General Qi couldn't calm down. Just as he was about to walk out the door, Qi Yu, who had been silent, suddenly rushed over and stopped him.

"Father, Father! Cheng Yifei is definitely doing it on purpose! He wants to make things even bigger! Once you enter the palace, your son will become a big joke. "

General Qi had always treasured this son of his, so he rarely spoke loudly to him. But this time, he almost shouted, "Do you know, it's not your face that you lose, but something else! Something else!"

Qi Yu was confuse. What he cared about the most was keeping face. Aside from that, he really couldn't think of anything else.

Something else?

What is it?
