Double Life: The Sickly Prince Eavesdrops on My Heart

When the brothers who were following Qianxun Pavilion saw Cai Guozhong leaving, they immediately used their Qinggong skills to chase after him.

He was as light as a swallow, and in a few jumps he followed closely behind Cai Guozhong, while being careful not to be discovered.

Cai Guozhong walked quickly all the way without noticing that someone was following him.

He walked through a series of dark alleys and came to a remote courtyard.

The tracking brother quietly jumped onto the roof, gently lifted a tile, and secretly peeked into the house.

Cai Guozhong was seen discussing something in a low voice with a group of women, looking serious and nervous.

"Tell them to put the things into the study of the Left Prime Minister before the hour of Yin tomorrow. Remember, do not leave any evidence behind!" Cai Guozhong said in a low voice.

"I will send people to cause trouble at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion tomorrow to cooperate with them! Whether our family can be reunited depends on whether they can succeed tomorrow!"

The brothers on the roof felt a tightness in their hearts, knowing that the matter was urgent and that they had to pass the message back as soon as possible.

He took advantage of Cai Guozhong's inattention, left quietly, and ran towards Qianxun Pavilion.

After receiving the news, Qianxun's face instantly became solemn, and without hesitation, she summoned the brothers in the pavilion overnight to discuss countermeasures.

The candlelight in the pavilion flickered, the brothers' expressions were extremely serious, and the atmosphere was tense and depressing.

Everyone expressed their opinions and argued endlessly until dawn, when they finally came up with a response plan.

The sky was just getting light, the morning light was just breaking, and a breeze was blowing gently, bringing a hint of coolness.

Qianxun hurriedly sent someone to the prime minister's residence to inform them, and also sent someone to quickly inform the Huo residence to be prepared!

Qin Ruhuan tossed and turned last night because she had something on her mind and couldn't sleep. She didn't sleep well.

After getting up early, there were dark circles under both eyes and his face looked particularly haggard.

Crystal dewdrops were still hanging on the flowers and plants in the courtyard, sparkling faintly under the reflection of the rising sun.

As soon as she got up, someone from Qianxun Pavilion came to deliver a letter! Qin Ruhuan received the letter and ran straight to her father's room without even having time to put on her clothes!

"Father! Are you up? There's an emergency!" Qin Ruhuan knocked on the door anxiously, her voice trembling a little.

At this time, several willow trees beside the corridor swayed gently in the breeze, and the branches and leaves rustled.

"It's Ruhuan! Wait a moment, your father will get up right away!" The left prime minister said in a hoarse voice, with a hint of sleepiness in his words.

In a moment, Zuo Xiang quickly put on his clothes and opened the door.

"Let's talk in the study! Huan'er!" The left prime minister looked hurried and led Qin Ruhuan quickly to the study.

Beside the path outside the study, a few clusters of unknown small flowers are quietly blooming, emitting a faint fragrance.

After entering the study, Zuo closed the door and asked anxiously, "Huan'er, what's going on?"

Qin Ruhuan took a deep breath, handed the letter in her hand to her father, and said, "Father, please take a look at this letter first. Qianxun Pavilion has already come up with a response plan. According to reliable information, the Third Prince has been meeting with several important officials in the court recently. I'm afraid they are plotting to seize the throne."

The left prime minister frowned, read the letter carefully, and said solemnly: "The third prince is usually very ambitious. He must have planned this for a long time. The important officials he has won over are all powerful people and should not be underestimated."

Qin Ruhuan continued to analyze, "Father, in my opinion, although the Third Prince's move seems to be thorough, there must be some omissions. He is in a hurry to accomplish his goal, so he will definitely reveal his true colors."

"We need to send someone to investigate secretly and collect evidence, waiting for the right time to expose his conspiracy."

The left prime minister nodded slightly and said, "Huan'er is right. The Third Prince has always been at odds with our Prime Minister's Office. If he seizes the position of Crown Prince, it will be a disaster for the Prime Minister's Office! However, the Third Prince has many followers, so we must be extremely careful and must not alert the enemy. We also need to unite with General Huo, Prince Jing and others to deal with this crisis together."

Qin Ruhuan's eyes were firm: "Don't worry, father. I will do my best to help you protect the Prime Minister's Mansion!"

When I returned from the Zuo Xiang's study, Chunhua Qiuyue had already carefully prepared breakfast!

The breakfast, emitting curling hot steam and tempting aroma, seemed to be calling out to everyone's taste buds.

After breakfast, Qin Ruhuan asked Fei Ye to convey the third prince's plan to King Jing.

After Fei Ye received the order, his figure flashed and disappeared from everyone's sight as quickly as an arrow.

After a while, people from Qianxun Pavilion came in one after another waiting for Qin Ruhuan's instructions. Qin Ruhuan gathered everyone together, lowered her voice, and whispered for a while.

Everyone had a serious expression, and after listening they quickly dispersed, like shadows hidden in the darkness, each going to stick to their own posts.

Qin Ruhuan is at home today, she wants to see what kind of trouble the third prince can make!

She sat upright in the living room, holding a cup of fragrant tea in her hand, her eyes showing calmness and composure.

Around noon, a middle-aged woman suddenly came to the door, holding a little boy of five or six years old!

The woman was thin, as if all her energy had been drained away by the years, and her pale skin looked particularly fragile under the sunlight.

The child in her arms was also quite thin, and that tiny body seemed like it could be blown down by a gust of wind.

She sat at the gate of the prime minister's residence holding her child and burst into tears.

"Prime Minister! Please come out and see us soon. Xu'er and I are here to see you! How can you be so cruel! You abandoned us and left us alone... wuwuwu!"

"Prime Minister, why are you such an unfaithful man? My son and I have suffered so much in the past few years, wuwu..." The woman sobbed, her voice was so sad that it made people feel pity.

When people around heard someone crying, they immediately gathered around and asked, "What's going on?"

"Doesn't the Left Prime Minister look like that kind of person?"

"You really know people, faces but not hearts!"

Everyone was talking about it, and various speculations and doubts arose one after another.

When the woman saw more and more people gathered around, and even some public opinion was on her side, she cried even harder!

Tears flowed freely like a flood, and the sound became more and more mournful.

Housekeeper Wang Fu came out and saw the woman crying and making a fuss, so he said, "The Prime Minister's Mansion is not a place for you to throw a tantrum, you bold woman! And you are trying to slander the Left Prime Minister! If you don't leave, I will call the soldiers to arrest you!"

The woman cried even harder, "I didn't slander the Left Prime Minister. The one in my arms is indeed the Prime Minister's own flesh and blood!"

"What a joke! The Prime Minister has always been a clean man, how could he be so ridiculous!" Wang Fu laughed contemptuously, his face full of anger and disdain.

The woman didn't listen and continued crying here!

"Everyone, this woman is a pitiful person, but what she said is not true! Everyone believed the rumors!"

Qin Ruhuan's voice came from the mansion, clear and firm, and everyone suddenly quieted down.

At this time, Qin Rushi and Qin Ruqi came to their father's study.

The Left Prime Minister was not there at the moment, so the two of them quickly took out the letters and jade pendants in their hands and found a drawer to put them in!

After doing all this, the two of them quietly left the study, their steps light as if they were guilty thieves.
