After that, she had only taken two steps before turning around. She had a blank look on her face as if she didn't know why she was here, and coldly said: "This Ministry Councillor is in the courtyard where I lived before."
Everyone else looked at her, but she only smiled and said, "It's empty there anyway, I just happened to have been cleaned up. This old Ministry Councillor is a decent person and might not be convenient in other places. "
When she said these things, there was a hint of ridicule in her tone, but it was only a trace. After that, she no longer cared about the outside of the courtyard and turned around to leave.
Ministry Councillor Liu did not know what he meant, and stared blankly at the people around him.
The servants only looked at Song Chongjing.
After Song Chongjing heard this, he waved his hand, and then a servant immediately led him out.
Lu Ming stood at the side, but at this time, he realised that when Ministry Councillor Liu went over, the two people kneeling on the ground had surprised expressions. He did not know why, but it looked like it was not going to be a good thing.
He had some doubts, but didn't dare to ask.
After he had left, he turned to Song Chongjing and said: "Your Highness, are you going to interrogate these two people in detail, or …?"
"How did you catch them?" At this time, Song Chongjing asked this.
"Just now, when I went out of Third Prince Palace to investigate, I saw those two sneaking around in foreign lands. They seemed to be conspiring with someone to capture them."
As Lu Ming spoke, he only looked back once more before saying, "Now that I have taken a look, I can see that they indeed have a hidden motive."
After saying that, he lowered his voice and said worriedly, "This matter, I'm afraid it has something to do with the other side."
"I understand." Song Chongjing nodded.
After speaking, he commanded his men to lead the two to the torture chamber within the manor.
On Xi Mengyao's side, she was also carefully reading the letter she brought back. She originally thought that it was the Third Prince who sent the message, but she didn't expect that the person who wrote the letter would be the Xi Mengge that she was very familiar with.
Although Xi Mengge was arrogant and despotic, but in the end, when all the young misses were born, the Madame Yun had always had high hopes for her, teaching her well. She had learnt how to write since she was young, and was much more nimble and dexterous than Xi Mengyao.
With just one look, she could tell that this notebook belonged to Xi Mengge.
"How could it be her?" Xi Mengyao was a little doubtful.
He originally thought that since Xi Mengge had been left out in the Third Prince Palace, she should not have gained more authority, but she never expected that she would still possess such power …
Thinking of this, she felt even more baffled.
But she could do nothing about it. She could only endure her temper and carefully read the letters one by one.
On the other side, in Third Prince Palace.
The expressions of the people in the mansion were not good, especially Xi Mengge. Hearing the maid's reply, his face twisted so badly that it looked like a bun.
"What did you say?" Failed? You actually failed to do such a thing? "
Xi Mengge gnashed her teeth as she glared at the little girl in front of her, as if she wanted to tear the person in front of her into a thousand pieces.
However, the servant girl helplessly knelt on the ground and looked at her without panicking. She only shook her head and said, "Even if you say that, a failure is a failure. Who would have thought that things would turn out like this?"
"That's right. Moreover, those two people that were captured were outside the residence. In the end …" "It has nothing to do with us …"
Although the two maids kneeling before her were on their knees, there wasn't the slightest hint of reverence in their voices.
The two of them looked unhappy, and when they looked at Xi Mengge, they were filled with disdain.
Seeing this, Xi Mengge knew that this man looked down on him.
But there was nothing she could do.
These were not her people, but Song Qian and the other people, who were not under her control.
Currently, she wasn't someone who could speak in the manor, so these people naturally didn't have any respect for her …
However, she had already thought of how to turn around and stomp on Lin Luoyan when the matter was over. However, since it had come to this, her beautiful dream had been shattered.
Looking at the girl in front of her again, she felt hatred. She became even angrier, and her teeth were about to shatter. "What do you mean by that? Don't tell me it's my fault!"
"Miss, why must you be so angry? In my opinion, this matter is far from the point of failure." However, if a few of them are captured, wouldn't it be fine as long as they don't say anything? " The tone of the maidservant was frivolous.
However, when Xi Mengge heard this, her heart was moved. She frowned and forced herself to calm down. She looked at them and asked, "Then what can you do about it?"
"Of course there's a way, but …"
As the two maidservants spoke, they smiled and suddenly turned their heads to look at the brightly lit manor.
Seeing that, Xi Mengge also followed to look.
That was actually the bridal chamber rebuilt by the Third Prince in order to marry Lin Luoyan. There was a small pavilion on the second floor. The roof was made of glazed roof tiles and lanterns hung from the four corners of the pavilion. It looked exceptionally bright at night, as if it was emitting light.
"What are you all looking at?!" She looked at the splendor of gold there, and then she looked at her own desolation. The anger in her heart once again flared up.
At this time, the two maidservants smiled and whispered, "In fact, we asked the imperial concubine yesterday if she wanted to participate. But, we can't do anything about this princess. Her temper is too big, and we can't bear her."
"But ah, she doesn't agree with us, but she clearly asks about our matters, we can't let this kind of person continue to stay in the manor."
"What do you mean?" Xi Mengge was curious.
Why did she hear them? The intentions of these two people weren't quite right.
"Concubine, think about it, she originally did not think much of you, so it would be bad for you to stay," the servant said as she stood up and walked to Xi Mengge's side and whispered a few words into his ear.
When Xi Mengge heard this, her face turned pale as she stared at them in disbelief, "What are you guys trying to say?"
Following that, the little girl walked over and whispered a few words into her ear.
"Rest assured, if the matter is successful, Third Prince will not blame you."
"But... "Now, really …" Xi Mengge was still hesitant.
As if she was disappointed in him, the maid went over and said, "Servant, when the time comes, you will be the only one left in our service. You want to get the better of us, don't you?"
"You also want to know what it feels like to be the one who gets the upper hand! As long as you listen to us, we promise you that this matter will be flawless! "
As the two maidservants spoke, their eyes filled with confidence.
Seeing them acting like this, and then thinking about the past, Xi Mengge thought for a moment, then clenched her teeth and raised her head: "I know!"
With that, she took out a pure gold key from her waist. "This is something my mother gave me. The thing is in the bank outside the city and only this one can be opened. You can take it if you want. However, after using it, you must not let anyone find out that you lost the key. This matter is related to me, so I will find out! "
she said, in a harsh voice.
At this time, the maidservants had also received their greetings, smiling as they blessed their bodies, "Since that is the case, we shall take our leave first."
After saying this, they immediately turned around and left the courtyard.
Only Xi Mengge was left behind, staring at the small pavilion in a daze: "Just you wait, this will all be mine!"
What she didn't know was that after the two maidservants obtained the keys, they walked out.
Outside the crown prince's estate, a dark blue carriage was parked at the corner. Seeing this, the maidservants hurried over to pay their respects, "Greetings, eunuch."
