Traveling through ancient times, the princess of the special forces became the group's favorite

"Let's go to the prince~" Lin Wanrou was full of joy, with a confident and proud smile on her face.

She looked at herself carefully in the mirror, as if she had already seen the beautiful scene that was about to come.

The maidservant Hongyu looked at her worriedly and couldn't help but persuade her, "My lady, you are still under house arrest by the prince. You can't leave Ziyin Pavilion. If you leave rashly, I'm afraid the prince will kick us out of the palace..."

Lin Wanrou smiled disapprovingly, gently stroking the delicate purse around her waist, a cunning glint in her eyes.

"Don't worry, the prince won't blame me. Not only won't blame me, he will even treat me better. Bring the cloud cake with you. The prince loves the cloud cake I make the most~"

She spoke confidently, as if she had already secured victory.

Hongyu nodded helplessly. Although she still had doubts in her heart, she prepared everything according to Lin Wanrou's instructions. The master and servant quietly left Ziyin Pavilion and walked towards the prince's study.

Along the way, Lin Wanrou was in a good mood and walked briskly, as if she had already seen the prince's favor and praise for her.

The sunlight shines through the clouds, casting a golden glow on the glazed tiles of Qinghui Garden, making them sparkle.

Yun Chenyu sat at his desk, concentrating on handling official business, but his mind drifted towards Danxue Pavilion from time to time.

He suddenly put down the brush in his hand and called Xiao Jingyan to the side: "This prince asks you, has Shen Li done anything unusual in the past few days?"

Xiao Jingyan replied respectfully, "Your Highness, the princess recently punished several servants and doubled the size of the pond in the courtyard of Danxue Pavilion. She also goes out after lunch every day and usually returns before dinner. Apart from that, there's nothing unusual."

Yun Chenyu frowned slightly and asked, "Leaving the mansion? Why did she leave the mansion? Where did she go?"

"Sometimes I go to the rouge shop, sometimes to the silk shop, and sometimes to the herbal medicine shop."

In fact, Shen Li did just that. She knew she would be followed every time she went out. So she deliberately chose shops near Dejitang, slipped out through the back door, and went to Dejitang for consultations. At night, she would enter these shops through the back door and exit through the front door, thus escaping the sight of her stalkers.

It was almost lunchtime. Yun Chenyu put down his pen, stood up, and said to Xiao Jingyan, "Come on, follow me to Danxue Pavilion."

After saying that, he strode out of the study, followed closely by Jamel Xiao.

Coincidentally, at this time Lin Wanrou came in with Hongyu, and called out with a smile, "Cousin~" Her voice was melodious, crisp, and very pleasant to hear.

However, when Yun Chenyu heard this, his face instantly darkened. He looked at her coldly and said unhappily, "Didn't I put you on house arrest for a month? Why did you sneak out before the due date?"

The tone was so cold that it made people shiver.

In fact, Yun Chenyu has never had a good impression of Lin Wanrou. If it were not for Zhenfei's arrangement, he would never let her live in the palace.

And ever since she tried to poison Shen Li last time, Yun Chenyu has become even more disgusted with her.

Lin Wanrou seemed to sense Yun Chenyu's dissatisfaction, but she still forced a smile and said softly, "Cousin, I know I was wrong, but... Cousin used to love the cloud cakes I made the most. I thought that since I was confined to my house these days, he hadn't had any of them, so I was anxious and brought them here myself."

After saying this, her eyes revealed a hint of grievance and expectation.

Then, Lin Wanrou took a basket from Hongyu and pulled out a plate of exquisite cloud cakes. This plate of cakes was as light as clouds, white as snow, and exuded a faint fragrance, making people salivate just by looking at it.

However, at this moment, Yun Chenyu's mind was completely on Shen Li. He only wanted to see the swimming pool she built and what she was doing in it. He had no interest in the delicious food in front of him.

"Put it down first and eat it when I come back." After saying that, Yun Chenyu passed by Lin Wanrou.

But just as he walked behind Lin Wanrou, Yun Chenyu stopped.

"You, turn around."

Lin Wanrou was secretly happy. She knew Yun Chenyu had seen the purse around her waist, so she suppressed her inner ecstasy, slowly turned around, and asked, "What's wrong, cousin?"

Yun Chenyu stared intently at the pouch on Lin Wanrou's waist, his brows furrowed slightly. "Where did this pouch come from?"

Judging from the prince's tone, he doesn't know that Shen Li is the Shen Yi he is looking for.

Lin Wanrou pretended to know nothing and lied, "This is what my senior brother left for me. What's wrong, cousin? Is there anything wrong with this purse?" There was confusion and puzzlement on her face, as if she really knew nothing about the origin of the purse.

Yun Chenyu frowned, his eyes sharpening as he stared intently at Lin Wanrou, trying to find a flaw in her expression. However, Lin Wanrou remained calm, showing no sign of guilt.

"Your senior brother? What's your senior brother's name?" Yun Chenyu asked hurriedly, with a hint of urgency in his voice.

Lin Wanrou lowered her head and bit her lip lightly, seeming a little hesitant, but finally said, "My senior brother's name is Shen Yi."

Her voice was soft yet firm, leaving no room for doubt about the truth of her words.

"Where is he now?" Yun Chenyu asked, a hint of anxiety in his eyes.

Lin Wanrou raised her head and looked at Yun Chenyu, with a hint of helplessness and regret in her eyes.

She sighed and said slowly, "I don't know about that either. A few days ago, my senior brother came to say goodbye to me and said he was going to travel around the world. I saw this beautiful purse on his waist, so I asked him to give it to me. He was in a hurry when he left, and he left a bag with me. I thought he would come to me to get it if he found it was lost, but he hasn't come yet."

After saying these words, Lin Wanrou lowered her head and frowned slightly, as if lost in memories. Her expression was so realistic that one could not help but believe that everything she said really happened.

Lin Wanrou is truly an elite in the entertainment industry. She is very good at making up lies.

When Yun Chenyu heard that there was another burden, he followed Lin Wanrou to Ziyin Pavilion.

"Cousin, this is the bundle~" Lin Wanrou said, pointing to the bundle on the table.

Yun Chenyu ordered Xiao Jingyan to open the bundle with a look.

Xiao Jingyan stepped forward, gently untied the knot of the bundle with both hands, and then slowly unfolded it. The contents of the bundle gradually appeared. The first thing that caught the eye was a familiar light blue dress, which was exactly what Shen Yi wore that day. As the bundle was completely opened, a butterfly-shaped mask appeared in front of everyone.

Yun Chenyu stared at these items, a hint of doubt and thought flashing in his eyes. He observed them carefully, confirming that these were the clothes and masks that Shen Yi had worn that day.

"Exactly the same." Yun Chenyu whispered to himself.

Now, even though he had found the clothes and the mask, what was the point? He wanted to find the person so that he could use him.
