Seeing him fall silent, Song Chongjing turned his head, only to see Lu Ming looking at him deeply, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

"Why?"

Lu Ming looked at him and asked, but did not say that it was just a moment of deliberation, and then said: "It seems that this young miss of the Prime Minister's Mansion is very much with the prince, but … She was still a member of the Xi Family. Your Highness, I'm afraid … "

After Song Chongjing heard this, his face also darkened.

He paused for a moment, then picked up the teacup by his side and gently wiped away the tea leaves. He spoke again, his tone somewhat distant.

"Be at ease, I am very clear on this matter."

Although Xi Mengyao was unique, but it made him more relaxed, because once she relaxed, there would be loopholes.

After Lu Ming saw it, he calmed down, and suddenly thought of something. All of the women he met on the street said it out, and they could only be considered to be having a change of heart.

"Speaking of which, I actually met a woman today. It's quite strange."

With that, he brought up the matter of Xi Mengyao, a female disguised as a male, practicing chivalry in the infirmary and scaring all of the bosses present to the point of almost kneeling down and kowtowing.

"That person is indeed strange. If I didn't see that her skin and fingers were different from the man's, and that the area around her neck was smooth, I wouldn't have been able to instantly discern her gender." Lu Ming said, thinking back to how Xi Mengyao looked like afterwards, and could not help but chuckle, "Furthermore, that lady's temper is not so bad."

"Oh, there's such a person?"

Hearing that, Song Chongjing became interested, and asked who the man was.

After Lu Ming heard this, he shook his head helplessly.

"I really don't know. After I exposed her, she left. This subject has been away for a while, but I have no way to find out her identity. It's just that she was wearing the clothes of a Attendant in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Still a little thief?" Song Chongjing laughed, "It's just that no matter how I stole the clothes, I still have to wear it out."

"This is the strangest thing," Lu Ming said as he lowered his head to think for a moment. Then, he raised his head: "That woman is extremely quick-witted and beautiful, and if Your Highness finds free time, we will help this official investigate, and find out where exactly this lady is. If we can find her, we might be able to accept her."

"Are you interested in her beauty?" Song Chongjing laughed.

Lu Ming shook his head, the lady was indeed special, but he had only met her once, he wouldn't do that, just that she was special.

As he thought this, he didn't say much.

"Forget it, why would it be difficult? I'll just send someone to investigate." Song Chongjing laughed, he did not do anything else, and waved his hand to allow Lu Ming to go.

He was alone in his room in silence for a moment. His mood actually improved quite a bit.

Unexpectedly, after just two days of peace, another piece of big news came from the Prime Minister's Mansion.

It could be said that after the young miss went home, she went into some hysteria and disrespected the marriage agreement. Instead, she took a pair of scissors and hacked her hair to get out of the house.

"Outgoing business?"

When these words were spoken into the Prince Jing Palace, everyone was momentarily at a loss.

From the Prince Jing to the servants, they could not understand what this big miss was planning to do.

According to her reputation as a mudslide of character, even if she were to be married to a ninth rank official in the future, they might not be willing to marry her, much less to the prince.

According to what the people outside said, if that person wanted to marry out, he would have to be recruited into the family by the Prime Minister with a great deal of money.

Now that he wasn't in a hurry to get something of the sort, why did it get out of hand and start a ruckus instead?

Song Chongjing also did not understand, but he naturally knew that this person was not as terrible as everyone had said he was, but they were not strangers in the first place, so why was Xi Mengyao rejecting him so much?

Could it be … Was she dissatisfied with him?

Song Chongjing frowned, when he heard these words, he was also in his room, resting after drinking the medicine. Thinking of this, he immediately wanted to stand up and ask about Prime Minister's Mansion.

Unexpectedly, he only stood up when a bone pain hit him, causing his body to sway.

Song Chongjing supported himself on the red wooden chair, frowning, he looked outside, but still wanted to go out.

At this moment, Lu Ming also came over. When he pushed the door open and saw Song Chongjing in such a state, he immediately knew what Song Chongjing was going to do and quickly stopped him.

"What's the point of stopping her? This King wants to go and see what she's up to."

"Your Highness!" Lu Ming shook his head, as he refused to budge, "Wouldn't it be a joke if you went out now?"

Now that he had been bestowed a marriage, everyone in the capital knew who the big miss of the Prime Minister's Mansion was. The king had listened to the emperor's bestowed marriage because of the emperor and not Xi Mengyao.

It was one thing for the prince to not get angry when he was tormented by someone at home. However, if he were to rush over, it would just be a joke.

Those that knew, only said that the Prince wanted to see what Xi Mengyao was planning, and those that did not know, would think that the Prince Jing did not have backbone, and went over because they were afraid of the Emperor's punishment.

"Besides, if you go now, it might not be useful." Lu Ming spoke for a long time, but when he saw that Song Chongjing was still unwilling, he could only sigh.

Song Chongjing was a little confused. What did he mean?

Lu Ming laughed and said: "I believe that Prince knows that the young miss of Prime Minister's Mansion has a unique personality. If we were to go over now, it would inevitably make the two families unhappy, and perhaps they might not be able to get an answer out of his.

If this was a misunderstanding, then it was fine as long as he kept it to himself. If there was something inside, they could talk about it in private and make a decision.

Lu Ming analyzed the situation, and upon hearing that, he frowned, but he was still unwilling.

"You don't know, but that Xi Mengyao is not an ordinary woman. Not only was she not obedient, she was even … "There are some girls from the martial arts world, Xiqi. If she wanted to escape the marriage, I'm afraid ordinary people would not be able to find out."

Saying this, he let out a long sigh. For so long, this was the first time he had seen such a helpless woman.

After Lu Ming heard this, he laughed. This subject can go and give it a try. "

"You?" Song Chongjing turned to look at him.

Lu Ming nodded his head: "This subject will only go over to inquire, and will not do anything to Young Miss.

"..." "Fine."

After Song Chongjing heard this, he pondered for a long time before nodding his head.

He knew that if others found out about his departure, who knew what kind of gossip they would have.

He had never feared the words of others, but now was not the time to be willful. His Majesty already felt discontent towards him, and now he might as well wait and recover from his injuries.

As he thought about it, Song Chongjing once again lowered his head to look at his own leg.

He had gone out to fight in the battlefield, but he ended up like this. If he didn't know that the Emperor wasn't useless, he probably wouldn't have been so patient.

Seeing that Song Chongjing did not speak, he could guess what was going on.

Lu Ming also shook his head, but suddenly laughed, causing Song Chongjing to look at him strangely: "What are you laughing about?"

"This official is smiling, that young miss is indeed a strange person, to be able to make you care so much. If I were to enter the palace in the future, I believe that the mansion will have another amorous relationship, maybe the prince would be able to relax a little."

"..." "Who knows?"

After Song Chongjing heard this, he shook his head but he did not say it full out loud. Just thinking about Xi Mengyao's appearance, he could not help but sigh.
