Time Travel: Brothel Maid

Fu Qi'an recalled carefully that the man had his back to him and covered his face with his sleeves, so he was never able to see the man's face.

Now, after hearing the prince's words, he woke up from his dream and finally understood where the strange feeling that flashed through his mind at that time came from.

The person was wearing men's clothes and his face could not be seen, so he thought it was a man. But how could an ordinary man have such white and slender wrists?

So that's it, it turns out that it wasn't a man at all, but a woman in disguise!

In an instant, a flash of lightning seemed to flash through Fu Qi'an's mind again.

A woman dressed as a man, fair skin, Tang Jingchen's carriage... frame by frame flashed through his mind, and his chaotic thoughts gradually became clear.

He suddenly thought of a person——Xiao Guoer.

Could it be that... Xiao Guoer is the woman who saved the prince?

Could it be that...her usual appearance was really disguised? Was it fake? Was she actually a stunningly beautiful woman?

Seeing Fu Qi'an's absent-minded appearance, Zhao Yunrong's face gradually became gloomy, and his eyes flashed with dissatisfaction and impatience.

He waved his arm, and the teacup in his hand smashed against the table as if it was despised, making a crisp and loud "bang" sound.

Fu Qian'an was frightened by the sudden sound and his whole body trembled, and his originally hazy mind suddenly became clear.

After a few thoughts in his mind, he didn't say what he was thinking. He just bowed and replied, "I obey your orders. However, today is the Dragon Boat Festival after all, and there are many people enjoying the scenery. If the woman deliberately avoids people's sight and changes her appearance to blend into the crowd, it may not be easy to track her down."

Zhao Yunrong remained silent, his oppressive gaze seemed to be able to penetrate the other person's soul. He stared at Fu Qi'an so hard that his heart was beating fast and cold sweats were pouring out.

After a long while, Zhao Yunrong slowly spoke, "Just do your best."

"Today, when I was watching the dragon boat race in Qingshui River, I saw Chen Fengyao's expression. Perhaps it is true as you said, he still can't forget Yingniang. In this matter, do as I said before. Let Zhou Fangye marry your sister as soon as possible, and then give the abandoned Yingniang to Chen Fengyao."

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty. I am already planning it and I believe it will be accomplished soon."

"Yes. Also, send someone to tell Tang Jingchen to report to the palace at midnight. Remember to have him disguise himself and enter through the back door, and don't draw anyone's attention!"

Zhao Yunrong waved his hand to signal him to leave.

"I obey your command." Fu Qi'an let out a long breath as if he had been pardoned, but his legs still couldn't help shaking.

Even after he left the palace, Fu Qi'an's heart was still pounding. How could he dare to deceive the prince? If the prince knew that he knew about it but didn't report it, he didn't know what the prince would do to him.

Thinking of this, Fu Qian couldn't help but feel scared.

But the dandy playboy's fear only lasted for less than a cup of tea, and soon he began to have evil thoughts again.

Xiao Guo'er, Xiao Guo'er, you really surprised me.

Fu Qian'an raised a strange smile on his face, and his eyes were shining with a determined light.

Xiao Guoer, I'm afraid you can't hide your true face for much longer.

Fu Qi'an turned to the attendant beside him and ordered, "Go prepare the horses."

The attendant received the order, "Where are you going, young master?"

Fu Qi'an's mouth corners slightly raised, his eyes sparkling, "Let's go to Zhuxian Lane, today we will wait for the rabbit to come and catch the turtle in the jar!"

In the Tang family carriage by the Qingshui River, the soaked Xiao Guo'er looked at the set of women's clothing that Shun'er had found for her and fell silent.

Well, I can only blame her for not making it clear that she needed men's clothing.

But now she couldn't let Shun'er go to find a set of men's clothes. Besides, it was really uncomfortable to wear wet clothes, and she really didn't want to endure it any longer.

Forget it, forget it. I’ll just put on this set of women’s clothes for now and won’t go to the front to look for Tang Xi later.

Let’s go back to Zhuxian Lane directly. She doesn’t know how sad Yingniang is. She has to go back quickly to comfort her.

After Xiao Guoer changed into clean and tidy clothes, the wet feeling disappeared instantly, replaced by an indescribable feeling of freshness and comfort, and her mood became cheerful.

Through the curtain of the carriage, Xiao Guoer asked Shuner who was standing outside the carriage, "Is your young master not back yet?"

Shun'er changed his usual perfunctory attitude towards Xiao Guo'er and replied in a gentle voice, "He hasn't come back yet. Maybe something has delayed him."

Logically speaking, the bamboo forest is not far from here, so I should have returned a long time ago.

Xiao Guo'er thought to herself that when Tang Jingchen saw the seriously injured prince, he would definitely help him. After helping so much, the prince would definitely thank him very much, if not burst into tears.

If anything happens to Tang Jingchen in the future, the prince will definitely give him some face.

What Xiao Guoer didn't know was that from this day on, Tang Jingchen would not only have some face in front of Zhao Yunrong, but would also become an important aid in his mission to seize the throne.

The torrent of fate surges quietly like raging waves, sweeping through everyone's life with an overwhelming and unstoppable momentum.

On the other side, after Tang Jingchen received Zhao Yunrong's order, he first found Fu Qian, and then gathered all the shopkeepers and clerks along the Qingshui River. After arranging everything one by one, he walked to the shore and waited and watched.

He watched as the news of the Eighth Prince being assassinated and his life or death unknown spread rapidly. It was not until he saw with his own eyes several panic-stricken officials and a large number of soldiers rushing towards the bamboo forest that he turned back and walked to his carriage.

When Tang Jingchen saw Shun'er waiting beside the carriage, he knew that Xiaoguo'er must have changed into dry clothes.

He bent his fingers and tapped the wall of the carriage, making a "dong dong" reminder sound, "Xiao Guo'er? Have you changed your clothes?"

A crisp voice was heard in the carriage, "Well, it's done, Brother Tang, come up quickly."

Tang Jingchen held Shun'er's hand and jumped up.

As the car curtain was opened, what came into view was a piece of light green clothing and skirt, like the tender green hue of new leaves in spring, fresh and elegant.

Looking up, Xiao Guo'er in a women's dress is incredibly beautiful. Although she is wearing the simplest and plain clothes, her face reveals her otherworldly temperament.

A waterfall-like black and shiny hair is casually tied up with just a branch. There are no excessive gorgeous decorations, but there is a pure beauty that returns to nature.

Tang Jingchen half-crouched on the edge of the carriage, lifted the curtain with one hand, and stared at the stunning face in the carriage with infatuated eyes. For a moment, he was stunned as if he was frozen in time, and forgot to move.
