In the Prince's Mansion, Shang Qiu Shui paced back and forth in the room anxiously.

She waited for a long time today but the prince didn't come out. She felt depressed and needed to find someone to vent her feelings. She quickly thought of someone, Feng Zihan.

They all share the same suffering and have a common enemy.

Having made up his mind, Shang Qiu Shui grabbed his cloak and hurried to Feng Zihan's yard.

Feng Zihan was leaning on the couch, holding a book in her hands, looking calm and composed.

"Sister Feng, how can you still have the leisure to read here?" Shang Qiushui couldn't help but complain as soon as she entered the room. "Aren't you worried at all about where the prince will stay tonight?"

Feng Zihan put down the scroll in her hand, looked up at her, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. "Worried? Why should I worry? The Crown Prince only has the Crown Princess in his heart now, and he doesn't think about us girls at all."

"Are you so sure?" Shang Qiushui looked at her in disbelief. "We are among the most beautiful in the capital, and with our family background, we can definitely crush that Xie Mishuang. Don't you want to sit on the position of Crown Princess?"

"It's just a fool's dream." Feng Zihan sneered, with a hint of disdain in her tone.

"You, well, since you don't want to be the Crown Princess, then I won't force you. But I do want to be the Crown Princess. If you can help me, and I take the position of Crown Princess in the future, I will allow you to give birth to a son or daughter for the Crown Prince, and never monopolize the Crown Prince. How do you do that?"

Feng Zihan sneered in her heart when she heard this. This Shang Qiu Shui was really naive. The male and female protagonists in this world were pure love characters, and it was impossible for them to fall in love with someone else.

However, if he could use her to get Xie Mishuang away, perhaps he would have a chance to get close to the prince.

"It's not impossible." Feng Zihan said.

Shang Qiushui's eyes lit up, "Do you have any ideas? Tell me about it."

Feng Zihan's eyes rolled as a plan came to mind. "The Crown Princess will take the initiative to attack the Crown Prince in the near future, hoping to seduce him. But if the Crown Princess encounters any trouble during this period, this plan will probably be delayed. As long as this plan is delayed, you will find an opportunity to get close to the Crown Prince."

"How do you know so clearly?" Shang Qiu Shui looked at her suspiciously, his heart full of doubts.

"I can tell with my fingers, okay?" Feng Zihan smiled, a cunning look in her eyes. "Anyway, I've told you, it's up to you what you want to do."

After saying that, Feng Zihan no longer paid attention to Shang Qiu Shui, turned around and left the room.

Shang Qiu Shui returned to his yard, thought about it for a long time, and finally figured out what Feng Zihan meant.

"The Crown Princess is planning to take the initiative to seduce the Crown Prince, but if she encounters any trouble during this period, this plan will likely be delayed..."

Shang Qiu Shui's eyes lit up. Yes, as long as Xie Mishuang could not get close to the prince during this period, then he would have a chance!

She quickly picked up her pen and wrote a letter, and sent someone to deliver it back to the Shangshu Mansion at full speed, asking her brother to find a way to make trouble for Xie Mishuang.

As night falls, the Prince's Mansion is brightly lit.

After Xie Mishuang took a bath and changed her clothes, she asked Ah Xi to send dinner to the study. She planned to go to the study to have dinner with the prince and mention the matter of the child that the queen had mentioned.

Since she has made up her mind, it is not a bad idea for her to have a baby.

But at this moment, people from the Dali Temple arrived.

"Your Highness, Crown Princess, my master invites you. Please come with us."

Xie Mishuang frowned, a bad feeling rising in his heart.

"I wonder what the Lord wants to talk to me about?"

"This……"

The visitor looked embarrassed and stammered, unable to speak.

"How dare you! My queen is of noble status. How can you summon her whenever you want?" Qing He stepped forward and shouted angrily.

"Qing He, don't be rude." Xie Mishuang scolded, turned to look at the newcomer, and said indifferently, "I am the Crown Princess. If you adults don't explain clearly, I will not go with you."

"This……"

The visitor looked embarrassed and hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, my master suspects that you are involved in Miss An's murder. Please cooperate with our investigation."

"What?!" Qing He exclaimed, looking at the newcomer in disbelief. "You're talking nonsense! How could my queen be connected to her murder?"

Xie Mishuang was shocked. She had a solid alibi for An Zixin's death, and the Queen Mother also testified. How could the people from the Dali Temple still find her?

"Empress, you..." Qinghe looked at Xie Mishuang worriedly.

"I know there must be something fishy going on. I want to see who is behind this!"

Xie Mishuang ordered Ah Xi to deliver dinner to the prince's room, and told Ah Xi not to tell the prince that she was taken away by the Dali Temple people, so as not to worry him.

"Ah Xi, remember, you must not tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince about this, understand?"

"I understand, Your Majesty, don't worry." Ah Xi nodded solemnly.

Xie Mishuang took Qinghe and followed the people from the Dali Temple out of the Prince's Mansion.

Not far from the study door, Shang Qiu Shui was waiting anxiously. Finally, she saw Ah Xi coming with dinner, and she hurried to greet him.

"Miss Ah Xi, where is the Crown Princess?"

Ah Xi reluctantly bowed to Shang Qiushui, "Replying to Concubine Shang, the Queen has gone out for something and has ordered this servant to serve dinner to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Concubine Shang, could you please make way for her?"

Shang Qiu Shui was not angry because of Ah Xi's attitude, but smiled even more brightly.

"Then let me take you there. I just happen to have something to report to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

As he spoke, Shang Qiu Shui reached out to take the plate from Ah Xi's hand.

Ah Xi's heart was filled with alarm. It was obvious that Concubine Shang wanted to take advantage of the situation!

"Concubine Shang, this is something that the Crown Princess specifically instructed me to deliver to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I'd better deliver it in person." Ah Xi held the plate tightly in her hand, her tone firm, and she refused to give in.

The smile on Shang Qiu Shui's face froze, then returned to normal. The maid behind her saw this and immediately understood what she meant. She stepped forward, grabbed Ah Xi's fingers and pried them apart with force.

"Ah!" Ah Xi screamed in pain, and the plate in his hand fell into Shang Qiu Shui's hands.

"You!" Ah Xi covered his red fingers with his hands, his eyes wide open with anger, but he could do nothing.

Shang Qiu Shui smiled triumphantly, like a victorious peacock, raised his chin proudly, without even looking at Ah Xi, twisted his slender waist, and walked slowly towards the study.

"Knock Knock Knock-"

Shang Qiu Shui knocked gently on the door.

"Who is it?" The prince's cold voice came from inside the room.

"Your Highness, it's you." Shang Qiu Shui lowered her voice, her tone shy.

There was a moment of silence in the room, and Shang Qiushui quickly added, "The Crown Princess went out for something, and ordered me to bring dinner."
