My bedroom is connected to ancient times, I am in love with the prince

Not long after, the master and servant rode in the Marquis's carriage and headed for the Lotus Tower.

When she arrived at the place, she saw a man dressed as a waiter waiting at the door. When he saw her, he hurriedly came forward with a smile.

"Excuse me, is this Miss Lin?"

Lin Xiangxiang guessed that Han Ling must have specially asked someone to wait at the door to pick her up.

Then he smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes."

The waiter was very respectful in his words and actions. "I am here to greet you, young lady, on behalf of the distinguished guest. Please come in." After saying that, he bowed slightly and stretched out one hand forward in an invitation gesture.

Lin Xiangxiang nodded with a smile and walked in.

As soon as she entered, Lin Xiangxiang knew that Cuihe was not lying. This place was indeed beautiful!

At first glance, lotus flowers are swaying and lotus leaves are everywhere.

Elegant pavilions are built in the middle of the lotus ponds. The lotus ponds and pavilions are connected in all directions, allowing visitors to enjoy the lotus flowers to their heart's content.

It was the seventh month of the lunar calendar, the season when lotus flowers were in full bloom. Lin Xiangxiang followed her servants as they shuttled between the lotus ponds. The fragrance of lotus flowers emanating from the ponds was intoxicating.

Soon, the waiter led Lin Xiangxiang to a pavilion and stopped. The pavilion was covered with gauze on all sides. Lin Xiangxiang could only vaguely see a woman sitting inside with her back to her, and a maid standing behind the woman.

The waiter said respectfully, "Miss Lin, we're here. Your distinguished guest is waiting for you inside."

Lin Xiangxiang nodded to him, "Thank you very much."

After saying that, she walked up the stairs, lifted the veil and shouted happily: "Han Ling..."

As a result, as soon as she walked in, she saw the people inside turned their heads and looked at her.

Lin Xiangxiang's eyes widened instantly, and the smile on her face froze.

Oh my god, it’s Diana!!!

Who will tell her what happened?

Lin Xiangxiang frowned, her voice filled with anger: "Don't tell me you asked me to come here under the name of Han Ling?"

Why did you invite her here? To have a fight?

When Lin Xiangxiang thought of this, all the hair on her body stood up. Wasn't what happened yesterday enough?

As a result, she saw Song Fangqian quickly stand up, with a very well-behaved and kind smile on her face, and walked towards her gracefully.

"Sister Lin, it was all Qian'er's fault yesterday. Qian'er is still young and naive, so she did such a ridiculous thing. Sister Lin, can you please forgive Qian'er?"

Heaven and earth!

Lin Xiangxiang was so shocked that she didn't know which way was which. She turned her head to look at Cuihe behind her, and then looked at the weather outside. Everything was real. There was no red rain in the sky, and she was not dreaming!

What is this crazy woman doing today?

Lin Xiangxiang's forehead was pounding, and she said unhappily, "What do you want to do? Tell me quickly, I don't have time to listen to your singing!"

When Song Fangqian heard her words, her eyes immediately turned red. She felt sad and wronged. "Sister Lin, Qian'er came here sincerely to apologize to you. Yesterday when I returned home, my father, mother, and eldest brother all gave me a good lecture. Qian'er really knows she was wrong. Just now, eldest brother asked Qian'er to apologize to you and said that he must ask for your forgiveness today!"

Song Lingxin?

Shit, he said he would have his sister come and apologize to her, but he didn't say it would be in a deceptive way?

Lin Xiangxiang rolled her eyes and was about to leave immediately. She refused to accept the insincere apology.

Song Fangqian grabbed her arm, looking anxious and frightened. "Sister Lin, if you don't accept Qian'er's invitation to the banquet to make amends, my parents will punish you when we get home. I'm really scared! Please save me, sister. I promise I'll never disrespect you again!"

After saying this, tears rolled down her face and she looked extremely pitiful.

Lin Xiangxiang was stunned. Ah, this...

Crying wins? Is that even possible?

While crying, Song Fangqian silently pulled Lin Xiangxiang to sit at the table.

She choked up and said, "Sister, you don't know, father and mother only like you, elder sister, and don't like me at all."

"There is a reason why I rely so much on Brother Ah Heng." After saying this, she sadly wiped away her tears with the handkerchief in her hand.

To be honest, Lin Xiangxiang was a little moved when she heard this. This is a typical love-deficient personality caused by family environment.

However, this cannot be a reason for her to hurt herself.

Lin Xiangxiang looked at the table full of food and said lightly: "I know, but there is no need to eat. I'm leaving first."

Just as she was about to stand up, Song Fangqian grabbed her hand again. Tears dripped down her face as she sobbed, "Sister, please don't leave yet. Can you listen to what Qian'er has to say? Qian'er just wants you to know why she did that to you."

Huh? Why would you do that to her?

She really wanted to know how she, a rich lady, could do such a thing as to push someone into trouble, and whether she could do something even more outrageous next time?

Seeing that Lin Xiangxiang was not leaving, Song Fangqian whispered again: "Can you let your sister's maid go out first? Qian'er doesn't want others to hear Qian'er's privacy."

Before Lin Xiangxiang could answer, she hurriedly said, "Just stand outside. Qian'er just doesn't want anyone to know."

Lin Xiangxiang frowned. She could understand the mentality of not wanting others to know the privacy, but this person had a criminal record.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Cui He, then you should stand at the steps outside the pavilion. Don't stand too far away."

Cui He replied, "Yes, young lady."

The girl could be seen from the bottom of the stairs, so she wasn't worried.

Seeing that everyone had left, Song Fangqian poured a glass of lotus wine and brought it to Lin Xiangxiang, saying softly, "Sister, the lotus wine in the Lotus Tower is mellow and fragrant, with an endless aftertaste. It is the best in the capital. You should try it first."

Lin Xiangxiang just glanced at it and refused, "I don't drink."

Song Fangqian didn't force it, she just said, "That's a pity."

After saying this, he took a sip and began to whisper, "When I was little, my mother often took me to the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion to visit Aunt Bai..."

In the pavilion next door, a girl was singing a song. Her voice was melodious and the lingering sound was lingering in the air.

In the south of the Yangtze River, lotuses can be picked. The lotus leaves are so lush and green. Fish play among the lotus leaves. Fish play on the lotus leaves to the east, fish play on the lotus leaves to the west...

Lin Xiangxiang listened to Song Fangqian talking about the past in a low voice while listening to the singing from next door.

As I listened, I felt more and more sleepy.

……

Noon.

Xie Beiheng and Xu Chong rode back to the city under the scorching sun.

Xiangxiang must be extremely bored staying in the mansion alone. Thinking of this, Xie Beiheng quickened his pace.

Horses were not allowed to ride in the city, so after entering the city gate, the two men rode on horseback at a moderate pace.

When passing by Mingyuanzhai, Xie Beiheng pulled the reins and stopped. He remembered Li Hanye saying that the pastries in this shop were particularly delicious.

Xie Beiheng dismounted and walked to the door of the shop, holding the reins. The clerk immediately came forward with a smile when he saw him and said, "Sir, what cakes would you like to buy? We have everything!"

What pastries?

Xie Beiheng was stumped. He didn't like sweets on weekdays, and he didn't know what was delicious and what was not, let alone what kind of pastries Xiangxiang liked.

Xie Beiheng glanced at Xu Chong standing beside him, and Xu Chong immediately understood what he meant and said cheerfully, "Sir, I guess that girls might like more delicate and sweet cakes."

"Like hundred-flower cakes, osmanthus-flower chestnut cakes, crystal cakes, and lotus cakes..."

Xie Beiheng glanced at him coldly. If he remembered correctly, Xu Chong's favorite foods were crystal cake and lotus pastry.

He turned to the waiter and said, "Give me one copy of each of the items he just ordered."

The waiter's face immediately lit up with smiles. "Okay! Sir, please wait a moment!"

There was a noodle shop next door. Xie Beiheng and Xu Chong stood between the two shops. It was dinner time and the noodle shop was crowded, noisy, bustling with people and discussions.

"Have you heard? This morning at court, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince exposed Minister of War Liu Jiachuan for colluding with the Northern Rong, leaking military intelligence, and treasonous behavior!"

"The Emperor was furious and immediately ordered a joint investigation by the Ministry of Justice, the Supreme Court, and the Censorate to thoroughly investigate the matter!"

"This traitorous traitor must be hacked into pieces."

"Shameless traitor, traitor to the nation, who has harmed countless people of Dayue? His crimes are too numerous to list, and even death alone cannot atone for them!"

"People like this should be executed to vent public anger!"

"Yes! They must be severely punished!"

"Let him know the consequences of treason!"

……

When Xie Beiheng climbed onto his horse with the cakes in his hand, he could still hear the indignant voices and curses of the people in the noodle shop against Liu Jiachuan.

Xu Chong tilted his head and whispered, "Prince, Liu Jiachuan was taken to the Ministry of Justice's prison this morning!"

Xie Beiheng nodded, "Well, I wonder if I can get something useful out of him!"

Wu...

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must find a way to pry open that old man's mouth!

When Xie Beiheng returned to the Marquis' Mansion and stepped into Feixing Courtyard, a figure knelt down in front of him, trembling all over and crying inconsolably.

"Prince, the girl... the girl is missing!"
