The princess was fed contraceptive soup on the day of the marriage exchange, and she went crazy

Fearing that Nanny Jin would discover something, Sheng Nanzhi quickly retracted her gaze: "There's nothing we can do about it. Those secret guards were willing to follow the prince before because they naturally believed that the prince had a bright future."

"But now the prince is in trouble, and the imperial physician has determined that he will never wake up again. They have done their utmost to stay by my side for over a month."

"They also have things they want to do, and they can't just be trapped like this."

Sheng Nanzhi looked at the secret guard that Huaizhi was pretending to be: "What's your name?"

The secret guard lowered his head, his eyes clear and light: "My name is Beifeng."

Sheng Nanzhi's eyelashes trembled slightly. This person is really...

The horses of the Hu people rely on the north wind, and the birds of the Yue people build their nests on the southern branches.

He's quite good at naming.

Sheng Nanzhi lowered his eyes, waved his hand, and asked Yuanbao to take his men down.

After everyone left, Sheng Nanzhi said, "This new secret guard is quite good, but his appearance... is really unsightly."

She said this on purpose, and the speaker had a good intention, and the listener also took it seriously.

Nanny Jin was slightly moved. Her ugly appearance had its advantages.

Prince Yi is in a coma, while their princess is in her prime and has an outstanding appearance.

If you come into contact with the handsome and extraordinary secret guard who protects you in secret every day, it is inevitable that you will fall in love with him.

But that face just now...

Nanny Jin sighed and said that there was no need to worry about this. Princess Yi would probably look down on her.

This seems to have some benefits.

"Yes, since the previous ones are gone, let's use this one first."

"Although this one is indeed a bit ugly, it seems to be quite down-to-earth and decent."

Down-to-earth and responsible?

Do these three words have anything to do with Shi Huaizhi?

After Nanny Jin left, Sheng Nanzhi summoned the person out again.

"North Wind?"

Shi Huaizhi lowered his head slightly and said, "I am here. What are your instructions, Princess?"

Sheng Nanzhi lowered her eyes and looked at the embroidery on her handkerchief. "You are quite bold. Aren't you afraid of being recognized? After all, everyone in Prince Yi's Mansion is very familiar with you."

Shi Huaizhi did not deny his identity: "The princess was able to recognize it because I deliberately let her recognize it."

"As for the others, I don't want them to recognize me, so they never will."

"Also, I wonder if Princess has ever heard the saying that the most dangerous place is the safest place."

"Even if someone suspected that I wasn't unconscious and that the person lying on the bed was my substitute, they would never have thought that I would be in Prince Yi's Mansion, by your side."

Sheng Nanzhi squinted his eyes and smiled. This guy is quite confident.

"So, you deliberately let me recognize you because you need my help to act out your tricks? To cover up for you?"

"Yes."

Sheng Nanzhi tapped her fingers lightly on the table, her eyes indifferent. Even so, she still felt that Shi Huaizhi's move was a bit too risky.

He obviously didn't have to do this, so why did he insist on taking the risk?

Sheng Nanzhi looked at Shi Huaizhi and asked, "Is there something going on in this mansion?"

Shi Huaizhi naturally wouldn't say that he did this in order to have more time to get closer to Sheng Nanzhi and get to know her better. He just curled his lips and said, "Yes, there is a spy in the backyard."

"I still don't know who he is or who the master behind him is, but his existence is very detrimental to me. I have to catch him and get rid of him."

In the backyard?

Is she the concubine in the mansion?

This did not surprise Sheng Nanzhi too much. After all, the concubines in the mansion were all taken into the mansion when Shi Huaizhi was still the most favored Sixth Prince.

At that time, Shi Huaizhi was extremely powerful in the court, so there were people who would try every possible means to place spies around him.

But... Shi Huaizhi has been in a coma for such a long time. If he is really a spy, it seems meaningless for him to stay in Prince Yi's Mansion.

If she still keeps it, why?

Was Shi Huaizhi's coma fake? Was it for her? For the child in her belly?

Sheng Nanzhi thought for a moment and said, "If you want to catch the spy, I can cooperate with you."

She coughed lightly: "Five thousand taels."

Shi Huaizhi lowered his eyes and smiled. He really suspected that his princess was the reincarnation of a greedy ghost.

However, in his opinion, anything that can be solved with money is not a big deal.

Fortunately, he is quite rich.

"make a deal."

There were footsteps outside the door, and Shi Huaizhi jumped up and disappeared from where he was.

Soon, Hua Ming walked in from outside.

Sheng Nanzhi looked up at the dappled sunlight pouring in through the window: "The weather is getting hotter, isn't it? Is the Dragon Boat Festival coming soon?"

"Yes, the day after tomorrow is Dragon Boat Festival."

Sheng Nanzhi nodded: "Go and invite Aunt Jinxin over, I have something to discuss with her."

As soon as Jin Xin arrived, Sheng Nanzhi stood up and looked at the lotus buds outside the window: "I just remembered that the day after tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival."

"For many years I lived in the Sheng family's farm, and the people there didn't really celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, so I didn't know how it should be celebrated."

"Now that there are only a few of us in Prince Yi's Mansion, it's not a good idea to make a big fuss. You can take care of the arrangements. Let's get together and hold a family dinner."

Jin Xin smiled and responded: "Okay."

“Although it’s not good to make a big fuss, it’s okay for us to have some fun in our own house.”

"We can hold a banquet on the island in the middle of the lake, have someone decorate the boat we use to pick lotus and clear debris from the lake, and have a dragon boat race."

"And have someone prepare some colored ropes. We can learn how to weave them and wear them to ward off evil and pray for blessings."

"Ask the kitchen to prepare some rice dumplings as well."

Sheng Nanzhi nodded: "Okay, sure."

"There's been a lot going on lately, and I haven't gotten together with the other concubines in a while. It's just that the timing seems a bit rushed. I'm sorry for the trouble, Concubine Jinxin."

Jin Xin took the order and left. Shi Huaizhi appeared again without Sheng Nanzhi calling him.

Sheng Nanzhi looked calm as she casually pulled out a book from the side. "Since I was diagnosed with pregnancy, I haven't been able to get together with the concubines in the mansion much. If the spy you mentioned has stayed in the mansion for me and the child in my belly, then she will definitely not miss this rare opportunity."

"When the time comes, I will observe them openly, and you will keep an eye on everything in the dark."

"If anyone makes a move, we can catch them right away."

Shi Huaizhi nodded: "Yes."

He paused before continuing, "But I think Jinxin's behavior is already abnormal enough."

"Jin Xin?" Sheng Nanzhi raised her eyebrows: "What's wrong with her?"

"It shouldn't be Jinxin, right? She belongs to your mother."

"Besides, she is the one I interact with the most among the concubines in the mansion. She takes care of everything in the mansion. If she wanted to do something to me, she would have done it long ago."
