Sister, you traveled through time too?

The news that the Princess Royal spent a huge sum of money to marry the most popular courtesan from Zuihua Tower spread throughout the imperial city within just one night.

This matter became a topic of conversation among everyone after dinner, and the reviews were naturally mixed.

However, the people's discussions could not affect Xiaoyu in the slightest.

But those aristocratic families may have evil intentions.

And some damned little thing with evil intentions is throwing a tantrum in the mansion.

The atmosphere in the warm room of the Prime Minister's Mansion was very solemn.

Prime Minister Hai Yi was sitting on the armchair with a sullen face, playing with the fiery red poisonous snake in his hands.

The other bamboo leaf green snake was quietly wrapped around his wrist like a jade bracelet.

The jade-white wrist contrasted sharply with the two green and red snakes, making it look a bit weird.

"Sir, we have been tracking him all the way, but we have not found any trace of Xu Zhu."

"I'm afraid Xuzhu has been killed by His Highness."

"I'm afraid... it's been exposed."

Two secret guards were kneeling below, lowering their heads in fear, not daring to breathe.

Hai Yi's eyes were grim, and he felt something was wrong.

Xuzhu's disappearance is very bad news.

This means that Asahitake has either been executed or imprisoned.

Either way, it means that his identity has been exposed.

It was his fault that he underestimated the woman, Her Highness, and it was also his fault that he trusted Xu Zhu too much.

Hai Yi boasted that he had connections everywhere, with countless spies and secret sentries, and his informants were spread throughout the imperial city.

That's why he underestimated his enemy and was so careless.

It doesn’t matter whether Xuzhu is dead or alive.

But I'm afraid His Highness has already become wary, so it will be difficult to get close to him and test him further.

His Highness knew about this but did not cause trouble for him. Perhaps he was planning revenge.

Hai Yi asked his subordinates to be extra careful.

He would never have thought that Xiaoyu not only knew about this, but also secretly let Xuzhu go.

The Prime Minister, who has great connections, would never have thought that Xiaoyu had the ability to release someone right under his nose.

Perhaps Hai Yi was too confident in his own power, or perhaps Hai Yi never thought that Xu Zhu could survive.

He probably felt in his heart that Xiaoyu was a bloodthirsty poisonous snake.

"Sir, there is one more thing!" The secret guard said quickly when he saw Hai Yi's bad face.

Hai Yi raised his eyes coldly and told him to fart quickly.

"Last night, Her Royal Highness the Princess took a man away from Zuihualou. He was the courtesan of Zuihualou."

"His Highness was very high-profile and spent a huge amount of money to welcome him away."

"The news spread throughout the imperial city this morning."

After the secret guard finished speaking, he quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at Hai Li.

After hearing this, Hai Yi's eyes flashed with surprise.

Most people, once bitten by a snake, become afraid of ropes for ten years.

This woman is really interesting. She had just discovered that she had planted Xu Zhu, so she should have been more cautious, but she still casually brought him back home.

How obsessed is she with saving Fengchen?

Aren’t you afraid that this person is planted by other forces?

Is she stupid, or does she really have her mind calculated and is extremely calm?

There was a hint of interest in Hai Yi's eyes. He sneered and actually crushed the fiery red little snake in his hand to death.

The pair of white hands were covered in blood. The little snake was thrown on the ground, its broken body was bloody and still twitching on the ground.

The two secret guards kneeling on the ground didn't even dare to breathe.

This is the 21st snake that the Prime Minister has crushed to death.

But every time, it was the red snake that was crushed to death.

The bamboo pit viper survived and witnessed the tragic deaths of twenty-one of its companions.

It can be said that the little red is flowing, but the little green is permanent.

Hai Yi looked at the blood on his hand and felt it was pleasing to the eye.

The dark green bamboo snake was quietly wrapped around Hai Yi's wrist, watching its companion's death with indifference.

It was as if the person who had just died was not his companion, or perhaps he had become accustomed to it.

Get used to the death and replacement of companions.

He might be afraid too, but he could only remain silent and pray that he would not be the next to die.

Hai Yi felt the cool body temperature of the bamboo leaf green snake. He gently stroked the little snake's head, his eyes showing appreciation and love.

"Cui Qiu, I will find a new companion to accompany you."

"Believe me, she must be very interesting."

A dark light flashed in Hai Yi's eyes, and his smile was gentle yet terrifying.

The green bamboo shoot in his hand was named Cui Qiu. He rubbed Hai Yi's fingers affectionately, with humility and flattery.

Even though Haiyi's fingers were stained with the blood of his companions.

Hai Yi was in a good mood, quietly looking at the poisonous little snake in his hand.

It takes a lot of patience and skill to tame a venomous snake.

But no matter how poisonous it was, didn't it still wrap itself around his hands and wag its tail to beg for mercy?

Hai Yi thought that the snake-like woman would one day be trampled under his feet and beg for mercy.

Because he has patience and means.

【Princess Mansion】

Xiaoyu still sleeps until noon. She doesn't get tired of these days when her waist and knees are sore.

"Cuizhi, bring me some wolfberries!"

People in middle age have to soak medlar in a thermos.

Ahem, although she is still a young girl.

"Your Highness, you are finally awake." Cuizhi came forward with a teacup, and several maids also came in to help Xiaoyu wash and brush her teeth.

Cuizhi said that Xue Lan moved into Lancangyuan after washing up at midnight last night.

Xiaoyu nodded after hearing this. She had had a wild night last night and had wanted to let Xue Lan sleep in her yard.

But Xue Lan was a rule-abiding person. After coaxing Xiaoyu to sleep in the middle of the night, she followed the rules and went back.

Lancang Courtyard, this courtyard has a nice scenery. It is filled with various kinds of orchids and a tall elm tree.

She fell asleep last night, probably Qiuzhe arranged it.

"Has Azhe met Mr. Xue?" Xiaoyu asked while drinking wolfberry tea.

Her face was calm, but in her heart she was afraid that her wife would be jealous if she brought a concubine home.

"Yesterday, when the Lord heard that His Highness had brought back Master Xue, he chose the courtyard."

"Master Xue went to Qiushuiju to pay his respects this morning, and then he met Master Shijun."

Cuizhi replied.

Xiaoyu nodded. The scenery of Lancangyuan was pleasant and Azhe was thoughtful.

Xue Lan is also very well-behaved and polite.

"Have you, my Lord, granted the position to Master Xue?" Xiaoyu asked again.

Cuizhi shook her head and said not yet. The waiter asked His Highness to make the decision.

Xiaoyu thought about it and gave Xue Lan a title of Rujun and arranged two servants to serve her.

"Go to the storehouse and get a few pieces of floating brocade. Choose the ones with bright colors. Have someone send them to Xue Rujun."

"As for Ah-zhe, we must not let him feel disappointed. I remember there is a fine black fox fur coat in the storeroom. Send it to Ah-zhe."

"Just tell him it's cold and ask him to take care of himself. I'll go see him later."

Xiaoyu ordered, the wolfberry tea in the cup was almost empty.

She filled her glass again and thought, there are only two handsome men here and she has been reduced to soaking wolfberries.

She didn't dare to think about what would happen if there were more handsome men in the future.

She simply didn't bother to think about it anymore and just lazily leaned on the couch, letting the maids comb her hair for her.

"Your Highness, please have another drink."

Cuizhi saw that Xiaoyu's cup was empty again, so she quickly filled it up.

Xiaoyu pouted and pinched Cuizhi's face. She scolded him with a smile, "You are so clever."
