While his heart was itching, he couldn't show it outwardly After all, that woood friend's concubine, and it would not do for him to overstep his boundaries

Tehts, s's house would possess such a talented woer irl afterwards, re that this had never happened

However, Long Heng, the lover of conspiracies, couldn't help but think that there wasJiaoyue away, he rapped on the table a few tietting a little restless these days? Even though he clearly knew that she was a woman of his own hare over alone

The Winter Garden was really in too remote a location Thus, he didn't see virtually anyone on his way there When he arrived, there was not even a guard at the door He had heard that all the residences had received old woeboys How had they only overlooked this residence?

Logically speaking, his mother shouldn't have made such a mistake However, what he didn't knoas that the old madame had actually dispatched the people But afraid that they would be a hindrance to her plans, Bai Xiangxiu had refused and sent back these people on the grounds of her being afflicted with craziness, clai she was too scared for outsiders

Since there was no one guarding the door and he was the master of the place, there should be no probleered outside for a while before he finally still slipped in

Whether or not a ht of hi at her She really didn't give off the feeling of a worab his attention Even if she did so, he didn't find that too hateful

”Your Highness, it really is the highness? Ah…” Bai Xiangxiu was not really a talented person, and had been furiously wracking her brain to think up poe fros to the prince

At least, these forht then, perhaps because she was too flustered, she stu on She crashed to the ground in a heap, sweat beginning to forh her She stuttered slightly,”Gree… gree… greetings to Your Highness?”
