The abandoned concubine who transmigrated woke up shouting "Long live the widow!"

Suddenly, a person wearing a silver mask caught her attention in a certain room.

The masked figure was a man, sitting on a chair in the middle of the room, with a woman dressed as a maid standing in front of him.

"Xiangguo, did you see Feng Cuier today?"

"Yes, sir!"

"How is she doing in the War King's mansion?" the masked man asked casually.

"It's alright! The manor has arranged a separate courtyard for her, and there are even old women to serve her! But..." The maid seemed to be considering whether or not to say something.

The masked man immediately pressed, "But what?"

"However, she doesn't seem to be highly regarded. Cui'er said that she has only seen the Prince of War once since she entered the manor, and the Princess Consort of the Prince of War doesn't even let her pay her respects. She spends her days embroidering in her own courtyard. She has been in the capital for so long, and she has never left the manor or gone out into the streets!"

"Is there anything else?" the masked man asked.

"That's all. This servant didn't stay at the Prince of Zhan's residence any longer. Cui'er was a little reluctant to leave!"

"Alright! This is for you! I'll contact you again if I need anything!" The masked man took out a piece of silver from his pocket and threw it to the maid.

The maidservant immediately reached out to take it, bowed happily, and left.

Upon seeing this, Jingxue understood that the maid had visited the Prince of Zhan's mansion today, and had long forgotten that Feng Cuier still lived there.

Who is this masked man, and why did he arrange for someone to approach Feng Cuier? It's obvious he's not concerned about Feng Cuier.

I didn't expect to have such an unexpected bonus today!

After the maid left, the masked man sat there motionless, and Jingxue thought he had fallen asleep!

Just as she was about to move to see if the Prince Duan had finished his wine, the masked man stood up, raised his hand, and took off his mask.

Now Jingxue could see the man clearly. He was of medium build and rather thin. On the right side of his handsome face was a scar the size of a baby's fist.

The man had a pair of deep, unfathomable eyes, like a cold pool, and he looked like someone with a story to tell.

The man walked to the wall and pulled up a painting on it. The scroll rolled up, revealing a piece of leather underneath. To Jingxue's surprise, the leather had the three words "Ye Muchen" written on it.

Oh my god! Does she see Ye Muchen as an enemy or an ancestor?

The man picked up a needle clipped to his leather bag and stabbed it fiercely into the three characters "Ye Muchen".

I understand, it's definitely an enemy!

What exactly did Mu Chen do that night to make people hate him so much?

Jingxue didn't have time to think about these things. She withdrew her powers to check on Prince Duan's movements, and what she saw was shocking! Prince Duan was doing something inappropriate for children with that woman.

Jingxue: Pah! Doing exercise right after eating? Aren't you afraid of straining your intestines!

She turned around and went back to the Prince's Mansion. Xiaoman was still waiting for her. She knew that her young lady had been investigating the assassin recently. She was also quite frightened that day. Fortunately, the young lady and the young master were both safe!

Although Jingxue and the others quickly returned to Jingning Garden through the back gate that day, the servants in the Prince's Mansion still knew that the Princess Consort had returned with blood on her body. The servants in other courtyards of the mansion basically did not have any contact with Jingning Garden. The steward had warned them to do their own job and not to ask around.

However, not everyone listens to the warnings, such as Old Tan's wife, Wang Ma.

Through his efforts, Lao Tan has been transferred to Meilan Garden.

Wang Ma felt more confident in this courtyard!

Right now, she was gossiping with Feng Cuier about the news she had heard, "Miss, you don't know, I heard that when the princess returned to the manor that day, she was covered in blood, it was terrifying. They didn't dare to go through the front door, they came back through the back door. I wonder who they offended?"

"Oh? Is the princess injured? Should I go and visit her?" Feng Cuier asked in surprise.

Liu Ma, who was standing to the side, frowned and glanced at Wang Ma, thinking to herself, "Why are you telling the young lady these things? Why are you spreading rumors about your master?"

"However, I heard that the Princess Consort seems to be unharmed, and that the blood is not hers!" Wang Ma's tone seemed to carry a hint of regret.

"Oh! Then forget it!" Feng Cuier was also a little disappointed. She felt that this was a good opportunity to get to know the princess.

“Miss…” Wang Ma glanced at Liu Ma, then hesitated.

Feng Cuier understood and said, "Aunt Liu, please boil some more hot water for me. I want to take a bath early tonight!"

"Yes, Miss, I'll go right away!" Liu Ma said and left. She didn't want to get involved in these things at all. Even though she knew that the young lady was deliberately trying to get rid of her, she didn't say anything. This old Tan's wife was a restless woman, so let her do what she wanted!

"Wang Ma, what are you trying to say?"

Wang Ma glanced out the window and whispered, "Miss, don't try to get close to the Princess. It's useless! There's no real affection between women. If you want to stay in the Prince's mansion for a long time, you have to get close to the Prince... you know what I mean. Otherwise, in a year or two, the Prince might decide who to marry you off to! That way, the Prince will have fulfilled his wish and done right by your brother!"

Feng Cuier blushed. The prince seemed to be a ray of light shining into her heart from the darkness. She, who was originally in the mire of life, felt an unprecedented hope.

The prince's favor made her feel flattered and overwhelmed, after all, the high and mighty prince had even arranged for several servants to attend to her. She felt both awe for the prince and indescribable emotions.

But she only dared to think about these things secretly in her heart, and didn't dare to hope for too much.

Wang Ma's words tempted her. Should she give it a try? After all, being close to the water tower gives one an advantage. If she didn't try, she might really end up marrying someone else, just like Wang Ma said.

"Wang Ma, I am of lowly status and dare not ask for anything," Feng Cuier said forlornly.

“Girl, it’s all about human effort! How will you know if you don’t try? What does it matter if you have a low social status? There are plenty of people who have risen to high positions from low social status!” Wang Ma said anxiously.

"But I'm all alone, and I'm afraid the prince doesn't have those feelings for me!"

"Miss, let me tell you something else. Our prince and princess have been married for eight or nine months. For the first six months, the prince never visited the princess's courtyard once. It's only in the last two months that they've had more contact. But not long ago, the two of them were fighting fiercely!"

"Really? Does the prince not like the princess?"

"What do you think? If you liked him, would you act like this? It's all so nice. Girl, before any concubines enter the manor, you should hurry up and find an opportunity to get close to the prince!"

"Thank you! Aunt Wang, let me think about it!" Feng Cuier had already made up her mind, but she didn't want to say it out loud.

Wang Ma wanted to say something more, but if the girl was smart, she should know what to do; otherwise, saying more would be useless.

As luck would have it, Jingxue learned that someone was deliberately trying to contact Feng Cuier, so she used her special ability to observe the girl.

What she was worried about was that the masked man sent his maid to contact Feng Cuier, intending to do something to her and Jingze; she didn't want to worry about anything else.

This oversight was significant; she overheard the entire conversation between Wang Ma and Feng Cuier.

This Wang Ma is no easy task!

However, since he has feelings for Ye Muchen, it's none of her business.

Jingxue decided to put those matters aside for now and focus on investigating Prime Minister Zou.
