Chapter 666.2: Unable to leave

Ive overstepped my boundaries, Your Highness; please spare this subordinate. The man with the

douli

knelt immediately, his expression respectful as he spoke.

There must be something wrong with me recently. Why do I keep making mistakes?

Seeing his reaction, Hua Ziqing laughed. You must be a little tired. Go back and have an early rest.

Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. This subordinate will take my leave. The man with the

douli

knew that now wasnt the right time for him to prove himself to Hua Ziqing.

A man wearing a mask appeared right after the man with the

douli

left.

Give this to Yun Ruofeng and tell him that this Prince would like to meet him.

The masked man disappeared almost immediately after receiving the instructions, leaving no trace that he had even existed.

Hua Ziqing took a sip of tea and mumbled, One has no choice but to discard a useless p.a.w.n.

~~~

In the posthouse.

A guard knelt before Pei Qianhao before pa.s.sing him a note and beginning to speak. Prince Hao, we can confirm that Hua Ziqing is the one behind everything.

Madame Wen would be shocked to see the note, because it was none other than the fake suicide note that she hadnt used.

Pei Qianhao smirked at this and asked, Where is her body?

Its still in the Prime Minister Residence. Our men have looked into it, and informed us that the coroners report will only be ready after a couple of hours, the guard answered.

Pei Qianhao nodded. You may take your leave. Continue keeping an eye on things.

The guard then left before Su Xi-er wandered in, looking sleepy.

Pei Qianhao walked up and took her into his embrace. Xi-er, why dont you sleep some more. Or are you hungry?

Su Xi-er smiled. A-Jing, all Ive done is eat and sleep today. Dont you think that I seem like some sort of animal?

Then it would have to be the worlds cutest one, Pei Qianhao answered slyly.

Su Xi-er gave a slight pout and said, A-Jing, shall we go to the banquet together tomorrow?

Sure, Ill go wherever Xi-er wishes. Pei Qianhao smiled.

Su Xi-ers eyes shone as she met Pei Qianhaos gaze. A-Jing, Ill always be with you too.

A-Jing, what do you think Elder Brother would do for revenge against Hua Ziqing? Su Xi-er asked mischievously.

Pei Qianhaos expression remained gentle as he said, Hell give him a taste of his own medicine.

Hua Ziqing will definitely regret targeting Elder Brother like that. The banquet will be interesting. Su Xi-er gave a cheeky smile.

Youve gotten a lot more playful after getting pregnant. Pei Qianhao looked at her with nothing but gentle affection.

Su Xi-er pinched his cheeks and said, This means that the baby in my tummy is as naughty as you are.

How about I show you what being naughty means?Pei Qianhao gave a mischievous smirk and started kissing her, stopping only when Su Xi-ers face turned red.

Are you going to say that Im naughty again? Pei Qianhao laughed.

Su Xi-er mumbled, Look, my child, youll have to help me fight A-Jing after youre born.

Xi-er. Pei Qianhao called her name in a loving tone as he planted a gentle kiss on her forehead.

Su Xi-er then stuck her tongue out at him and said, A-Jing, Im hungry.

En. Ill take you out for some good food. Pei Qianhao took her hand in his as he led her out.

Yun Ruofengs man had witnessed everything, but the problem was, he couldnt find a way to escape without being caught.

This is bad, Master will put the blame on me if I cant pa.s.s on any messages.

What should I do? How do I leave? How is Master doing now?
