Splendid Twins

Si Yao fed Si Yang a tonic while wiping his mouth. She didn't know if this trip was worth it, but now that she was here, the rest would depend on fate.

Ling Feng came over and saw Zhou Yu's grim expression, and was stunned:

"What's wrong with you?"

Zhou Yu looked at Ling Feng coldly:

"Do you think Yaoyao has this ability?"

Ling Feng trembled violently, a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes, as if he was hit hard by an invisible force, and he stood there in a daze.

The young lady used to be as weak as a willow in the wind, but now she is...

They are martial artists who never believe in ghosts and gods, but this time they are trapped in a strange and suffocating formation, and they obviously begin to fear the gods deep in their hearts!

"Did you find anything unusual when you went back last time?"

Zhou Yu asked in a low voice, he had to find out the truth!

Ling Feng thought about it and shook his head: "No."

"think carefully?"

He wanted to know when Yaoyao had an accident, such as at Si's house? Or before coming here, or at the mansion...

"Forgive my stupidity. If the young lady hadn't taken action, I would have thought it was nothing."

"There is no one or two!"

Zhou Yu sneered and looked towards Si Yang. A dark light flashed in his eyes. He had to ask his father for clarification when he returned...

The group was ready to go, Si Yang was carried on Si Yao's back. Ling Feng originally wanted to take over, but Zhou Yu stopped him with a look. He wanted to see what other abilities this mountain monster pretending to be his sister had!

Si Yao noticed a pair of eyes staring at her from behind, but she pretended not to know. She was the one who gave herself away and could not blame others for being suspicious. If things really didn't work out, she would hide in the mountains and set up a spirit gathering formation. With the space in hand, life would not be a problem for her.

Gou Huan keenly noticed that the atmosphere was not as lively as before. He glanced at Zhou Yu's gloomy face, as if covered by a layer of dark clouds, making people afraid to approach. Si Yao had a blank expression on his face again, and the smile in his eyes faded. He said softly:

"Let me lead the way, so you don't end up in a mess again."

After these words were spoken, the crowd became even quieter. Ling Feng glared at Gou Huan in dissatisfaction. This man had very little vision.

In the capital, the person sent by the Duke of Zhenguo to pick up Zhou Yu disappeared. He had a bad suspicion in his heart and called the secret guard to ask:

"No news yet?"

"none."

The Duke of Zhenguo was silent for a while, then spoke again:

"How is Wei's investigation going?"

The secret guard informed the intelligence he had obtained one by one:

"Mrs. Wang refused to tell the truth, so I lied to her and told her that Wei had told her everything. Sure enough, she did tell me, but Wang Xing is dead, and there is no evidence. They only said that the midwife was from the palace..."

The Duke of Zhenguo narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice:

"It's meaningless to investigate the matter of the child exchange now. The Duke of this country just wants to get the handle of that person to resolve the current crisis. Go and ask her to explain the appearance or special features of the midwife."

"Yes!"

"Send another person to meet them and bring back the prince!"

"Yes."

After the secret guards withdrew, the Duke of Zhenguo's eyes flashed. The dirty tricks of the Wei family could not be separated from the help of Concubine Wei. The emperor's concubine interfered in the affairs of the ministers' offspring. Once such palace secrets were leaked, it would surely make the royal family lose face and become a laughing stock of the world. He took this opportunity to cleverly plan and let the entire Duke's Mansion avoid the battle for imperial power.

As for who will sit on that throne in the future, that person will not be Prince Li. Everything is excessive or insufficient, and extreme favor may not be a form of flattery!

Everything is under the control of the emperor. It is just a grinding stone. The one he really likes is not showing his true colors at this moment...

In the backyard, Zhou Wan was also planning carefully. A hint of shyness flashed across her face. She stroked a small medicine bottle in her hand, then raised her eyes and looked at the maid beside her:

"Change my clothes, little lady, and change into the new one."

After dressing up carefully, she found an excuse to leave the house. The newly promoted maid was smart and asked cautiously:

"Where do you want to go? We need to make arrangements in advance."

Zhou Wan thought it made sense and nodded:

"There's something I need you to do. Come closer..."

The maid was so surprised that her mouth slightly dropped open. Then she thought again, wealth and honor come from risk. The young lady is willing to take risks, so she, a maid, naturally cannot hold her back...

"Miss, just wait patiently. I will definitely take care of this matter."

"Okay, after the task is completed, this lady will reward you handsomely."

Zhou Wan asked the driver to take a detour through several busy avenues. If she wanted to accomplish anything big, she had to build up momentum first. This was a method she had been planning for a long time, and she was determined to get what she wanted.

The carriage stopped in front of Yanhui Tower, the most famous restaurant in Shangjing. It was a must-go place for the top scholars of all dynasties during their parades. It was also known as the Zhuangyuan Tower. What it lacked the most was popularity and bustle.

The maid took the lead and went into the restaurant to book a luxurious and superior private room at a large sum of money. She came out, silently gestured to Zhou Wan, and then left.

Zhou Wan covered her face with a veil and entered Yanhui Tower. There was a servant waiting at the door who led her directly into the private room. She was the only one in the room.

I have to appear calm and composed in front of others, but now that it has come to this, I can't help feeling a little nervous.

"Zhou Wan, success or failure depends on this one move, you must seize the opportunity."

"Take a deep breath, relax, isn't this what you want?"

"Think about those people who look down on you, with their contemptuous looks, do you want to take revenge on them?"

Zhou Wan talked to herself for a while, trying to calm the waves in her heart.

She took off her veil, looked at the incense burner not far away, raised her lips, and walked over swayingly...

When she was drinking her second cup of tea, she heard familiar footsteps outside the box. Zhou Wan gathered her clothes and waited for someone to come in before she said softly:

"You're here."

Prince Li seemed to have come in a hurry, and there was still a smell of sake on his body. He was a little surprised and said:

"Why did Wanwan meet here? You know, Yan Gui Tower belongs to us..."

"Your Highness, isn't this place good?"

Zhou Wan interrupted Prince Li with a soft voice, reached out to grab his arm, and pressed her whole body against him. Prince Li did leave the banquet in public, just because the people who came said that Zhou Wan had solved the riddle!

But he knew that it was not a puzzle at all, but a saying of the Western Rong: To be friends with the Prince of Zhou is a blessing for the Western Rong!

This is a special gift prepared for the Duke of Zhenguo. If he knows the current situation, he can pretend that this piece of paper has never appeared. But he wants to protect himself and remain clean, so evidence of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion colluding with the enemy will appear on his father's dragon case, because Zhou Yu happened to be at the border.

No matter what, the Duke Zhenguo Mansion will become his stepping stone to ascend to the throne!

The soft body that took the initiative to throw itself into his arms aroused his desire, and his breathing became heavier:

"Wanwan, you know the riddle is..."

Just as Prince Li opened his mouth to test the water, a finger as light as a feather touched his lips, stopping him from speaking.

"Your Highness, to be honest, I have admired you for a long time. My heart has long been occupied by you. No matter where you go or what you do, I am willing to accompany you. This is my love for you, without reservation..."

As she spoke, she raised her head and offered her lips. The room was filled with a rich fragrance. The young man and woman could not control themselves in an instant...
