Lu Shiwan frowned, "What's wrong?"

"Cousin, I...I..."

"Don't hesitate, or I'll leave."

"No, cousin, I finally waited for my cousin to leave."

"So, what's the matter?"

"I... that, Fu Jingheng actually wants to marry that woman, cousin, I, I..."

Lu Shiwan smiled and said, "Why, are you jealous?"

Princess An Ning nodded quickly, "Yeah." Her face turned red as her butt.

"Pfft~"

Fang Shiwan couldn't help but laugh out loud, and she looked at An Ning.

"So, you deliberately made a bet with him just to delay time?"

"Ah."

"Cousin, I want to ask you, how did you win over my cousin? I want to learn from your experience."

"Me? Your cousin took me down, so I don't have to use my brain."

peaceful:……

"Come, I'll tell you how to get it." Looking at her aggrieved look, Fang Shiwan thought of Mo Qitian's method, leaned close to her ear, and whispered for a long time.

The more An Ning listened, the wider her eyes widened, "Isn't this inappropriate?"

"How disgraceful, cousin."

"An Ning, what's the problem? If you don't dare, then just give it to someone else."

"Anyway, with your looks, there will be no shortage of people coming to propose marriage to you. That Mr. Leng is not bad either."

"How can that be possible? I..." Princess An Ning gritted her teeth and said ruthlessly, "Okay, I'll try it in the next two days..."

Lu Shiwan looked cunningly and chuckled.

"Okay, let's go. It's not dark outside yet, let's go meet some friends for tea."

"it is good."

Princess An Ning was completely focused on Lu Shiwan's method and didn't care where to go.

After walking out of the door, Lu Shiwan was about to get on the carriage when he saw Xie Jingruan coming out of the door with an unhappy look on his face.

Where is the second prince?

Lu Shiwan muttered a few words and pulled Princess An Ning to follow.

"what happened?"

"Shh, Lao Wang next door has a grenade, look at what she is doing."

An Ning was originally immersed in the method, but after hearing Fang Shiwan's words, her eyes lit up.

"Let's go and see what she does."

The two followed her quietly.

Xie Jingruan came to a corner and immediately took out a handkerchief to wipe her hands and face.

"Bah! Who is that?"

"Do you really think I'm stupid? To be engaged to Prince Qi and then break off the engagement? And then marry you?"

"If I could marry King Qi, would I still be interested in you?"

"I really don't know where this confidence comes from! Fortunately, I am smart, otherwise I would have been eaten up!"

Lu Shiwan and Princess An Ning were dumbfounded.

This Xie Jingruan doesn't seem to be that stupid.

I also know that the second prince is not a good person.

"If I really go to ask my father for help, my career will be over. He looks so decent, gentle and generous, I thought he was a good match."

"What a hypocrite, a wolf in sheep's clothing. I was so blind to fall for such a man!"

"Bah! How dare you wipe my hand!"

"It's so disgusting!"

As she spoke, she wiped her hands, threw the handkerchief on the ground, and walked into the alley.

Princess An Ning originally wanted to scold Xie Jingruan, but seeing her like this, she couldn't bring herself to do it.

And at this time.

After leaving Mingyue Tower, the second prince came to the East Palace.

He hasn't come to see the prince for a long time since the last time he was confined by the emperor.

The prince was sitting in his study thinking about how to deal with the salt.

"Prince, the Second Prince is here."

The prince put down the pen in his hand and looked up, "Let him in."

"Yes."

Soon, the second prince came to the door of the study and saw the prince reading leisurely.

He walked in with a smile, "Brother Crown Prince, long time no see."

"Second brother, why are you here?"

"I heard that the Crown Prince's storehouse was robbed, so I came to see if there is anything I can do to help."

The prince sneered.

If it were in the past, he would definitely trust him 100% without reservation.

But now…

"No need, second brother. I think even if you want to help, you can't do much."

"The treasury was robbed, which means I have no money left. I rely entirely on my salary. How can my second brother help me in such a day?"

"If you really want to help, I have a batch of goods that I want you to help sell."

The second prince raised an eyebrow, "What kind of stuff?"

"A batch of large salt, this batch of salt was sent from Lingyun Country. Now the people in the imperial city have enough of it. I wonder if my second brother has any good ideas to help sell some?"

The Second Prince suddenly realized and said with a smile, "Brother Crown Prince, this is easy. I will help you sell it."

Seeing that he was helping him, the prince didn't bother to care too much.

Since both parties like Lu Shiwan, then each of them should use their own abilities to get her.

"it is good."

The salt issue was resolved, and the prince felt relieved.

Thinking of Fang Zhirou's identity as a phoenix girl, he still wanted to find some time to promote her to a concubine.

It hasn't worked for such a long time, it must be because the Royal Jade Butterfly is not used.

"Brother Crown Prince, how come the Eastern Palace was robbed out of nowhere?"

"I don't know how I have offended the Black Flame Hall. My mother's palace, my sister's palace, and my palace have all been stolen."

The second prince was in deep thought.

I remembered that the first place to be robbed was the Shangshu Mansion, followed by the Anguo Mansion, then the Dongchang Marquis Mansion, the East Palace, the Fengyi Palace, and the Sixth Princess.

these people……

"Brother Crown Prince, have you ever thought about the reason?"

"I have thought about this. Could it be that I sent someone to sneak into the Black Flame Hall before, but they were discovered, so they came to take revenge?"

The second prince looked at the crown prince.

This prince is good in every way except that he is too stupid.

He chuckled and shook his head, "Brother Crown Prince, think carefully, do these people have a common characteristic?"

"For example, they offended the same person, or they bullied the same person."

The prince listened to his words and thought carefully about these days.

In addition to hating Fang Shiwan at the beginning and plotting against her later, he also slandered her and Prince Qi...

"Could it be King Qi?"

"What about the Queen? Or did Shu Xueye offend my fourth brother?"

The prince was shocked, "You mean, Fang Shiwan?"

"Brother Crown Prince, she changed her surname to Lu now."

The Crown Prince looked at the Second Prince with some inquiry in his eyes.

He obviously likes Lu Shiwan, so why is he pretending to be his enemy in front of him?

Is it a deliberate disguise?

The prince snorted coldly, "Humph, what a lucky life! Fang Zhengxiang was dismissed from his post, and she suddenly became the daughter of the Lu family's top scholar."

"You said she did it?"

The Second Prince shook his head. "I don't know. This is the most reasonable explanation. Their goal is the same, but they can't find any evidence against her. This is strange and bizarre."

"In my opinion, it was the people from the Black Flame Hall who did it."

"Brother Crown Prince, this is also possible, but the former is more reasonable, and the latter is just a matter of the mood of the people in the Black Flame Hall."

The prince narrowed his eyes, "There is only one possibility!"

They both said in unison, "Love!"

"Yes, I think, either there is someone in the Black Flame Hall who likes Lu Shiwan, and this person is very important, otherwise he can't control those thieves."

"I heard that the Crown Prince's concubine Fang Zhirou is a phoenix girl?"

"Yes, that's right." The prince said calmly.

"Why don't you ask her? Fengnu is naturally intelligent and can guess many things accurately. Prince, you can ask her and maybe she can give you some clues."
