The prince had told her that the baby in Li Shuangwan's belly was extremely important, and asked her to take good care of her before she gave birth safely. If anything went wrong, she and her son would die without a burial place.

Thinking back to what Zhou Caiyao had said to her, Nanny Zhao suddenly realized something was wrong.

Zhou Caiyao is not living in Prince Heng's Mansion now, but has been taken to the General Zhenguo Mansion by Zhu. If the prince wants to arrange for her to do something, why go so far away?

The prince has a top master named Sipo by his side, and he can't avoid any kind of people in his territory.

Yesterday, I asked her to tell her what clothes Li Shuangwan would wear and what jewelry she would wear today.

What is she going to do?

There's also something wrong with Concubine Shu. Why would a dignified concubine come to such a filthy place?

Moreover, although she was of low status, she had served Li Shuangwan for more than ten years and had seen some of the world following Zhu. It was impossible that there were only two single rooms next to such a large hot spring pool.

This girl named Hongshuang wanted to lead Li Shuangwan to a secluded place.

No, that’s definitely not right. They must be plotting something against Li Shuangwan?

After thinking through all this, Nanny Yue felt cold sweat pouring down her face.

He hurriedly stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and said with a smile on his face: "Miss Hongshuang, my princess does not go to such a remote place. Please make other arrangements for us, or if there is none, then we will go down the mountain and return to the city."

Hong Shuang had a smile on her face, but there was murderous intent in her eyes. She turned to look at Li Shuangwan: "Does Princess Heng mean the same thing?"

Li Shuangwan pretended to be puzzled and looked at Hong Shuang: "No? What's wrong?"

Hong Shuang smiled faintly: "Although I manage such a large Bishuiquan Villa, I actually manage it for my master. I knew on the first day I came here that a servant must fulfill his duties. Since when did a maid allow the master to make decisions without authorization? I didn't know that there was such a rule in the Hengwang Mansion."

Madam Zhao was furious, but she dared not offend this person, so she said with a smile: "Miss Hongshuang, you are joking. When did I become the master of the princess? It's just that my princess is pregnant now, and as her personal nurse, I naturally have to consider everything for her."

Although Nanny Zhao didn't know who the boss behind the Bishuiquan Villa was, she knew very well that if she dared to speak nonsense, even His Royal Highness Prince Heng would not be able to protect her.

Li Shuangwan knew why Madam Zhao wanted to stop her: "Madam, didn't you say that soaking in the hot spring more often would be good for my baby and my body? Why are you leaving now that you just got here?"

Zhao Ma came over immediately and whispered in her ear, "My princess, this girl named Hong Shuang, I feel something is wrong. Why is she taking you further and further away? We are not familiar with this place, so we'd better be more careful."

Li Shuangwan glanced at her and asked, "Madam, what do you think will happen?"

Zhao Mama's face froze. How could she dare to say something that hadn't happened? The owner here was very powerful. She could only persuade: "I am afraid of such a secluded place. What if I slip and fall? Princess, either we go to the big hot spring pool with those girls, or we go back now."

Hong Shuang was skilled in martial arts, so even though Nanny Zhao spoke in a very low voice, she was able to hear it clearly with her eyes moving around, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

He said coldly, "Madam, my Bishuiquan Villa is one of the best villas in Shengjing City, but in your eyes, it is so shameful that it will hurt the princess and the little prince in her belly? I wonder what my master will think if he knows."

Nanny Zhao's face turned pale and she dared not say anything more.

Li Shuangwan pushed away Aunt Zhao and said, "Alright, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I have a cold body, and it would be great if I could soak in this hot spring as much as possible. Could it be that Aunt Zhao doesn't want me to be well?"

"I……"

"Besides, didn't you ask Uncle Zhou to go back? Do we have to go down the mountain and walk back now?"

Aunt Zhao had a lot to say. She had been badly hurt by the bitch Zhou Caiyao and Concubine Shu today. I hope the Bodhisattva will protect Qianmian and nothing will happen to her.

"Princess Heng, please come this way." Hongshuang was tall and slender, dressed in a thin red gauze. She glanced at Madam Zhao lightly.

Nanny Zhao felt that all the hairs on her body stood up.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Hong Shuang finally stopped and said, "Princess Heng, the room has been cleaned up, you can go and take a bath without any worries. I have arranged three servants to guard outside, if you need anything, just let this maid call."

Li Shuangwan smiled and said, "Thank you, Miss Hongshuang. Let them do other things. I don't like to be disturbed by outsiders when I'm bathing." After saying that, she looked at Nanny Zhao.

Madam Zhao thought that this woman named Hong Shuang would not have any good intentions in bringing them here, so she said immediately, "Yes, Miss Hong Shuang, you don't know that my princess has had this habit since she was a child. She doesn't like to be served by others when she bathes, and even a wet nurse like me is not allowed to get close to her."

Hong Shuang nodded and smiled: "I am sorry for being rude. In that case, I will let them do other things first. If the princess has anything to do, just ask the nanny to call them."

After saying this, he walked away.

Before leaving, he glanced at Aunt Zhao indifferently.

Nanny Zhao's heart skipped a beat when she saw this.

"princess……"

"Okay, I know Madam is doing this for my own good, so we just need to be careful. Besides, there's no one from their place right now, so nothing will happen. Let's go in."

The yard is very large and full of flowers. Inside is a large house.

The house is divided into two rooms, inside and outside.

The hot spring is outside, surrounded by mist. Next to the hot spring are expensive wines and various snacks. A few steps inside is a room for people to rest.

The house is not big, which is a feature of the houses built by the Ling family. The bedroom for rest can only accommodate a bed, a table, and a few cabinets for clothes.

The bedding, sheets and curtains are all made of top-quality shark gauze.

Because it was winter, there was a thick blanket on the bed, and even the floor was covered with soft carpets.

The ornaments on the screen were all priceless. Li Shuangwan took a look and knew that this was Ling Shijiang's yard in Bishuiquan.

The reason why she knew this place was from her previous life. After Ling Heng released Ling Shijiang from the palace, Ling Shijiang specially invited them to play at Bishuiquan in order to thank Ling Heng for his kindness.

At that time, Ling Shijiang didn't know that Ling Heng's favor towards her was just for show to the world, and she really believed that the emperor and empress had a deep love for each other.

As soon as Nanny Zhao entered the room, she looked around inside and out, and was relieved when she saw that there seemed to be no danger.

Li Shuangwan: "Mammy, you go and guard the door. I'm a little tired. I'll rest for a while before taking a hot spring bath."

"Yes, Princess, please have a good rest. If you have any problems, just call me." After saying that, Nanny Zhao went to close the window.

"Leave the window open. This room is a bit stuffy."

Nanny Zhao seemed to be hesitant to speak, but finally answered yes. She looked around the room carefully again and saw that there was no danger, so she left the room and closed the door.

Once she was outside she didn't dare to relax, she moved a stool and sat at the door, repeating to herself over and over again that she hoped she was overthinking and nothing would happen, and asked the Buddha to bless her.
