My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

She remembered several of them, and had secretly observed them for a long time.

Lu Yinheng said, "To avoid alerting them, I did not arrange for anyone to follow them."

Ji Yunshuang said, "There's no need to waste manpower tracking them. If one of them is a witch, they certainly won't give up and will take further action. We just need to stay put and wait for them."

Meanwhile, Zhong Boyi and the people he had arranged to attend the banquet were reporting the situation of today's banquet to Princess Chenxi.

Zhong Boyi arranged for a total of ten people to attend the banquet.

He and a few others disguised themselves as ordinary merchants, while the others disguised themselves as poor people with no money.

He recounted everything that had happened at the banquet, then asked, "Princess, what should we do next?"

Princess Chenxi played with the pearl in her hand, pondered for a moment, and then said, "The food processing workshop is built in Jingyang City?"

Zhong Boyi handed over the blueprints and pointed them out to Princess Chenxi, saying, "This is the location and layout of the workshop. It's not inside Jingyang City; it should be considered to be built on the outskirts of Jingyang City."

Princess Chenxi looked at the drawings for a while, then raised an eyebrow and said, "He does have some talent."

Zhong Boyi asked in a low voice, "So, according to the princess, what's next?"

Princess Chenxi didn't say what to do next, but instead asked about Fu Jiayou's donation at the banquet.

Zhong Boyi and the others had already recounted the events before. Zhong Boyi didn't know why she was asking again, but he could only answer her questions one by one, explaining the situation in detail once more.

After Zhong Boyi finished speaking, she said, "You mean, Fu Jiayou disguised himself when he went to the banquet, and no one there recognized him. It was during the donation that Lu Yinheng suddenly revealed his identity?"

Zhong Boyi said, "Yes!"

Princess Chenxi said, "Tell me, how did they recognize Fu Jiayou when no one else noticed?"

Zhong Boyi said, embarrassed, "I don't understand either."

Princess Chenxi said coldly and with extreme displeasure, "Let's drop the matter of pretending to be the legitimate daughter of Prince Xuan!"

Zhong Boyi knelt down and apologized, saying, "It was my fault for not investigating the Ji family's capabilities before devising this scheme, which almost put the princess in danger. Fortunately, the princess is wise and managed to avoid danger. It was my incompetence, please punish me, princess."

Princess Chenxi scrutinized him for a moment, then suddenly said, "Mr. Zhong, your recent performance has been rather disappointing! With your abilities, you're more than capable, aren't you?"

Zhong Boyi was drenched in cold sweat. He forced himself to speak, trying to defend himself, "Princess, it's not that I haven't been diligent. It's just that the Ji family member has exceeded my expectations... that's why this mistake happened."

"I truly didn't expect that even with Young Master Fu's disguise, they would recognize him. Next time... I promise I won't make this mistake again."

"Is that so?" Princess Chenxi said leisurely, "I thought Mr. Zhong had changed his mind and wanted to serve another master."

“If it weren’t for the princess’s discerning eye back then, I might be overgrown with weeds by now, and I wouldn’t be where I am today. Over the years, I have always kept the princess’s kindness in mind and wanted to repay her properly.”

"If the princess doubts my loyalty, I am willing to die to atone for my sins and prove my innocence."

As Zhong Boyi spoke, he kowtowed several times on the ground, then stood up and rammed his head against a nearby wall pillar, as if he intended to kill himself.

Just as Zhong Boyi's head was about to hit the wall pillar, Princess Chenxi called out, "Commander Mu!"

As soon as Princess Chenxi finished speaking, Mu Hui rushed over and grabbed Zhong Boyi, preventing him from crashing into the wall.

Princess Chenxi said slowly, "I don't blame you. Why do you want to die?"

Zhong Boyi said, "It is my fault for failing in my duties. I am guilty."

Princess Chenxi said, "Alright, the Ji family is a mysterious and unpredictable person. This matter can't be blamed on you. You should go and rest now!"

During this time, pay close attention to the movements of the other major families in the city, and find an opportunity to follow their lead.

Zhong Boyi knelt down, apologized and thanked him again, and then left.

As for what Princess Chenxi would do next, he dared not ask a single question.

Now, Princess Chenxi is clearly suspicious of him.

He suspected that if he misbehaved even slightly today, and Princess Chenxi became certain that he knew something he shouldn't have, he might really be dead.

No, it's probably better to be dead.

The thought of his body being taken over by insects sent chills down his spine.

This cannot go on.

He had to find a way to get in touch with Ji Yunshuang.

However, there were many people accompanying him to the Prince's Mansion today, and with so many eyes and ears, he hadn't been able to find an opportunity.

If he were to rashly try to contact Ji Yunshuang at this point, he might lose his life before he even gets through.

For now, we can only wait until next time.

With no leads on the witch's matter, Ji Yunshuang had no choice but to put it aside for the time being.

She called Xu Xi over and asked, "Did you get anything out of those Qi soldiers you captured today?"

Xu Xi said, "They are all very stubborn and refuse to say anything."

Ji Yunshuang said, "I will go and see for myself."

Like the Prince Duan's residence, the Prince Xuan's residence also had a hidden dungeon. After capturing General Yao and his party today, Xu Xi followed Ji Yunshuang's orders and imprisoned them in the dungeon.

The dungeon was empty except for one cell containing a crazy old man with a fringed beard.

Therefore, Xu Xi simply separated the men, imprisoned them individually, and then arrested and interrogated them one by one.

No matter how they were interrogated, these people refused to say anything.

After Ji Yunshuang left, she simply had everyone locked up together. She wasn't in a hurry to interrogate them, but instead ordered, "Bring some water and give them a good wash."

These people all disguised their appearances when they came to the banquet.

When she observed them secretly, she only found their behavior suspicious and suspected that they were Qi soldiers, but she was not sure of their specific identities within the Qi army.

Since these people refuse to confess, let's first strip away their disguise.

She also has Lu Yinheng as her secret weapon!

In fact, the fact that we were able to see through Fu Jiayou's disguise today is thanks to Lu Yinheng, the reborn person.

Fu Jiayou's disguise today was actually very successful.

But he was very unlucky and met Lu Yinheng, a reborn person. Lu Yinheng happened to have seen Fu Jiayou's makeup today in his previous life.

Therefore, he recognized it at a glance and then quietly told Ji Yunshuang.

The two discussed it briefly before making the arrangements for the next event.

Now that these people refuse to confess, let's see how Lu Yinheng, our secret weapon, is brought in!
