She just thought that His Highness might come to her room tonight. The two of them hadn't been intimate for a long time, and she even began to miss His Highness's bravery.

Thinking of this, Tang Mingzhu's face turned red.

Tang Yu followed Tang Mingzhu with the food box and went to the study in the East Palace.

Chu Xiaohe was usually busy with official duties, especially after hunting. The emperor gradually delegated power and many memorials were moved to the East Palace for Chu Xiaohe to review.

Even Tang Yu rarely sees him.

In the study, Chu Xiaohe listened to the secret guards reporting the entire court's movements. He had control over which ministers had done what. He could even find out which ministers had an affair with their concubines, and which child actually belonged to the housekeeper. There were all kinds of gossip...

Ever since Chu Xiaohe could remember, he knew his future responsibilities and that some people coveted his position while others were wary of him, so he began to cultivate a force that would only obey his orders.

Now, even if he wanted to overthrow the dynasty without anyone noticing, it was within his control to ascend the throne.

Chu Xiaohe put down his pen, looked up and rubbed his nose.

I asked casually, "What is she doing?"

The eunuch Wu Dequan, who had been serving beside him, stopped grinding the ink and asked him a question out of the blue, which left him confused.

Then, seeing the Crown Prince's gradually cold gaze, he was frightened and his mind suddenly became clear. He immediately remembered who the Crown Prince was talking about.

Wu Dequan had just heard the secret guard's report, so he knew it very clearly and answered hurriedly.

"Your Highness, Miss Tang is serving the Crown Princess. I heard from the people below that the Crown Princess is preparing chicken soup herself. I think she will come over soon, and Miss Tang may follow her."

After hearing this, Chu Xiaohe nodded expressionlessly.

It's hard to tell what he's thinking.

Wu Dequan breathed a sigh of relief and raised his sleeve to wipe the cold sweat from his head.

To be honest, Wu Dequan really believed at first that the Crown Prince was deeply in love with the Crown Princess, so when he saw the Crown Prince hugging the beautiful maid beside the Crown Princess, he was really frightened and broke out in a cold sweat.

Now it seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really likes that maid.

After all, the prince had never been distracted by a woman when he was busy with official business.

Even the Crown Princess had never been treated like this.

Wu Dequan has been with the prince for many years and has a mind as clear as a mirror. Even if he can't figure out the prince's thoughts tenfold, he can at least see about three or four percent of them.

In his opinion, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was truly attracted to this maid.

After Chu Xiaohe asked this question, he stopped talking and continued to review the memorials.

Wu Dequan heard the voice behind him and the young eunuch stepped forward to report.

When Wu Dequan heard this, his eyes widened and he glanced at the Crown Prince who was working.

He spoke carefully, "Your Highness, the Crown Princess is here with Miss Tang."

Chu Xiaohe paused while reviewing the memorials, with a hint of annoyance between his brows. He would have been happy if Tang Yu had come alone.

He really didn't want to see Tang Mingzhu.

He took a deep breath and thought about what the villain had begged him not to reveal their relationship.

Chu Xiaohe could only cheer himself up to deal with Tang Mingzhu, and he hoped that Tang Mingzhu could recognize his attitude and leave on her own accord.

After all, the two of them once had some romance. If Tang Mingzhu was willing to come to her senses, he wouldn't mind letting her go.

After thinking for a moment, Tang Mingzhu's voice arrived before he even showed up.

"Your Highness, I made your favorite chicken soup."

There was a lot of kindness in Tang Mingzhu's voice, and she hoped that the two of them could return to the way they once were as equals.

She had come to deliver chicken soup before, and it was the same.
