Double Life: The Sickly Prince Eavesdrops on My Heart

The brothers of Qianxun Pavilion who were hiding in the dark saw it all clearly. After they left, they quickly took out the things in the drawer and sent them to Qin Ruhuan as fast as the wind!

Qin Ruhuan took the thing and opened it, a scornful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. It was indeed like this!

So Qin Ruhuan took out a pen and paper, wrote a letter, found a jade pendant, and told her men to put it back intact!

Just then, the Left Prime Minister returned home, and the farce outside the mansion made him frown.

Qin Ruhuan stepped forward and whispered something in his ear, and Zuo Xiang's face instantly turned gloomy.

"Bring in the troubled woman and child. I want to see who is behind this!" the left prime minister said angrily.

Qin Ruhuan's eyes were firm, she knew that a bigger conspiracy was about to be revealed...

The Prime Minister brought the woman and the child into the mansion and asked, "Who instructed you to slander me like this?"

The woman shook her head helplessly, her eyes full of sadness and helplessness, “No one ordered me to…”

"Neither you nor I have ever met, so why are you saying in public that I abandoned you?" the left prime minister said angrily.

"My Lord, please calm down. I really can't live any longer! I hope you can have mercy on me! I dare not say anything!" The woman said as she knelt on the ground!

When the Prime Minister saw this, his brows furrowed. These people actually forced a weak woman to do such a thing. They really have no bottom line!

"Forget it, just stay in the Prime Minister's residence for the time being." The Prime Minister waved his hand and told the servants to take good care of us.

The woman and the child were taken to a side courtyard. Although the room was not luxurious, it was clean and tidy.

The woman settled the child and sat by the bed, looking dazed. It seemed that the prime minister was not a bad person.

She was filled with guilt, but if she didn't do as she was told, she and her child would be in danger!

Qin Ruhuan, with a solemn expression, ordered his men to deliver a letter to the Huo Mansion, detailing the various strange things that had happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion in recent days.

Huo Zhong had just come off court and had not yet had time to change out of his court robes when he received a letter from Qin Ruhuan.

His brows were furrowed, his eyes revealing decisiveness and determination. He immediately arranged for people to guard the place strictly. Well-trained secret guards were carefully arranged to guard the study, bedroom and other places to ensure that no possible omissions would be missed.

Around noon, when the sun was high in the sky, there was suddenly a noisy sound of footsteps outside the Left Prime Minister's Mansion, and a large group of soldiers poured in like a tide.

They forced their way into the mansion without saying anything, and their aggressive attitude seemed as if they were going to turn the residence upside down.

The third prince, Xiao Qian, walked slowly through the crowd with a smug sneer on his face.

"This prince has received a report that the Left Prime Minister's Mansion is collaborating with the enemy and selling out the country! Someone, come! Search them carefully!"

After receiving the order, the soldiers filed in, and the prime minister's residence was immediately thrown into chaos!

Left Prime Minister Qin Lang walked out of the study quickly and ran straight to the front yard, his angry expression difficult to conceal!

"Your Highness the Third Prince! What is your intention in bringing soldiers to search my residence for no reason?" Left Prime Minister Qin Lang shouted angrily, his voice full of majesty and questioning.

"Lord Left Prime Minister, I have received a report that you are collaborating with the enemy, so I have come to search!" The Third Prince said calmly, his contemptuous tone showing that he did not take the Left Prime Minister seriously at all.

"Third Prince, you come directly to search my residence based on a verbal report without reporting to His Majesty. Isn't this against the rules?" The Left Prime Minister's expression became more and more serious, staring straight at the Third Prince.

"Even if the emperor knew, he would understand my actions of serving the country wholeheartedly! Come on! Keep searching!"

The third prince said this with a sinister look, his eyes revealing his determination to never give up until he achieves his goal.

"You... Xiao Qian! You are going too far! I will definitely report you to the emperor!" The Left Prime Minister was so angry that he was shaking all over.

"Hahaha! I hope you can still see father!" The third prince laughed unscrupulously.

The soldiers who were searching kept coming out to report, "Your Highness, it's not here!" "Your Highness, it's not in this room either!"

The Third Prince was not in a hurry. He sat on the stone bench and waited calmly as if he had everything under control. He looked so relaxed and contented as if everything was under his control.

At this time, Qin Ruhuan walked over with a firm step, her eyes full of anger and disdain, "The Third Prince has come to visit, do you want to demolish my residence?"

The Third Prince glanced at Qin Ruhuan and said sarcastically, "Hey! Isn't this the future princess? Prince Jing can't save the Prime Minister's Mansion this time!"

"Really? I don't think it's that they can't be saved, it's that the Prime Minister's Mansion doesn't need to be saved!" Qin Ruhuan said without backing down.

Qin Ruhuan glanced at everyone present and had some ideas in mind.

She knew very well that the Third Prince had come with ill intentions this time and there must be some ulterior motive behind it.

And she would never let the Prime Minister's Mansion fall into this unexpected disaster easily.

The Third Prince felt annoyed when he saw how tough Qin Ruhuan was.

He stood up suddenly, and was about to explode, when he suddenly heard a loud shout from outside the palace: "The imperial edict has arrived!"

Everyone was shocked, wondering what kind of changes this imperial decree would bring.

I saw a eunuch holding an imperial edict in his hand and walking quickly into the prime minister's residence.

Everyone knelt down to receive the order, and the Third Prince's expression became uncertain.

The eunuch cleared his throat and read the imperial edict loudly: "The Emperor decrees..."

"The Prime Minister's mansion has a daughter named Qin Ruhuan, who is gentle and dignified, and elegant in her behavior. Her talent is even more outstanding, and she is proficient in all arts, such as playing the piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and is proficient in poetry and songs. Such a woman of both virtue and talent is rare in the world. Today, I specially grant her marriage to King Jing, Xiao Jingxuan, and hope that the two of them will live in harmony, support each other, and write a good story together. The wedding date is set for October 8th, and the whole mansion will celebrate at that time, and the whole world will congratulate! I decree this!"

The chief steward Li Deli read aloud in a voice as loud as a bell.

Qin Ruhuan stepped forward and respectfully took the imperial edict with a proper smile on her face, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for granting me the marriage! Long live the emperor!"

Her voice was clear and firm, but there was a subtle flash of complex emotions in her eyes.

The third prince was so angry that his face turned green! He cursed in his heart: People are confiscating the property right now! But the emperor came to grant the marriage, he is really... really good at disrupting the situation!

He clenched his fists tightly, his teeth chattering, but he didn't dare to attack.

Qin Ruhuan looked calm and ordered Chunhua to give Manager Li a bag full of silver!

Butler Li took it cheerfully, the smile on his face becoming even brighter, "Congratulations Miss Qin, congratulations Miss Qin!" Then he left the palace happily.

At this moment, the soldier who was searching the study suddenly ran out in a hurry and shouted, "Your Highness, we found something!"

The third prince immediately stood up, took two steps forward, and impatiently took the letter and jade pendant handed over by the soldier.

His eyes lit up instantly, his excitement was beyond words, and he felt like he had grabbed a life-saving straw without even opening the letter.
