”Although this Princess Mansion is small, the mansion's layout is indeed exquisite.”
Wu Yicheng sat on the wheelchair and looked at the layer of jade outside the hall, and praised sincerely.
Yuwen Lie seemed to really like it and suggested.
Huai Jin brought Ran Mei to the entrance of the hall and listened to their conversation carefully. She suddenly retracted her foot that was about to step out, and looked at the two people in the hall with a thoughtful expression.
Their conversation sounded like there was nothing wrong, but in her heart, she didn't know why, but she suddenly had a strange feeling. She felt as if the two of them were very close.
Huai Jin withdrew her steps and inquired about their relationship.
Ran Mei was also surprised to hear the conversation between the two. She was stunned for a moment before replying, ”Wu Yicheng is a student of the Grand Preceptor Su, and normally it is Wu Sicheng who helps the Grand Tutor to look after the matters of his subordinate. But Wu Sicheng and the Crown Prince … There doesn't seem to be any interaction. ”
Huai Jin shook her head.
”Since the princess is here, why didn't she come in?”
Wu Yicheng who was in the hall suddenly asked.
Huai Jin laughed bitterly, then appeared from the side and entered the hall.
Inside the hall, Crown Prince Yuwen Lie and Wu Yicheng were sitting on the left side. Under Wu Yicheng's body, there was a wooden wheelchair.
She did not know about Wu Yicheng's bad side, but a look of surprise flashed past her eyes, but quickly disappeared.
However, his eyes were still caught by Wu Yicheng who had a sharp mind. His face showed a moment of absent-mindedness, but in the next moment he smiled at Huai Jin as usual: ”Yi Cheng's legs are inconvenient, I cannot bow to the princess. I hope that the princess will forgive me.”
Huai Jin waved her hand nonchalantly, gave Yuwen Lie a casual salute, and then sat down on the other side.
Honestly speaking, putting aside the fact that his legs were injured, the Wu Yicheng in front of him could be considered a gentleman that was gentle like jade. Different from Pu Xin's elegance, his smile was always on the corners of his mouth, and it gave off a very intimate feeling.
”The princess was frightened last night.”
Wu Yicheng looked at Huai Jin with concern. Huai Jin returned a smile and heard him speak again.
”This humble subject has come to inquire about the princess' assassination attempt last night. It might be related to the assassination attempt on the princess' hunting grounds.”
Huai Jin nodded, and told them about the assassination attempt last night, and how Yuwen Fei came to rescue them.
After Wu Yicheng heard this, he pondered for a moment. He knew that Huai Jin had been ordered by the Emperor to investigate the Qishan white jade, and understood that Bei Ling was not the only one who wanted to kill him.
”Princess, could you bring this subject to the scene of the incident?”
Huai Jin nodded and brought the two of them to Qing Lan Yuan.
Because of the fight last night, the garden in the middle of the Qing Lan Yuan was a little messy. Some of the green leaves had already died down and the signs of last night's fight could still be vaguely seen.
Yuwen Lie checked the scenery around him with his push. Because he hadn't had the time to clean up yet, the courtyard was filled with scattered branches and stones. Yuwen Lie tried his best to avoid the wheelchairs that he was pushing but he could not, because he felt that the people on the wheelchair were a little uncomfortable.
”It's already been one night, why didn't you send anyone to clean it up?” In the end, he raised his dissatisfaction towards Huai Jin, ”There was no servant serving in the front hall just now, why? Once you leave the palace, you will have no rules? ”
