Only after being reborn did I realize that I was the white moonlight of a powerful minister.

Princess Longyu immediately laughed, "How interesting! There are spies in this world who can escape from your clutches, Xie Bohuai. I really want to see what kind of person they are."

Behind the screen, Ye Wanning was sweating nervously, covering her son's mouth with one hand, afraid that the child would make a sound.

The town government officials were indeed quite capable; they were able to find out that she had entered her adoptive mother's villa.

What to do now?

Ye Wanning's heart jumped.

Having lost face, Xie Bohuai simply said, "This man is very cunning; I was careless."

Princess Longyu found it even more interesting when she realized that Xie Bohuai was talking about Ye Wanning. It was a pity that Xie Bohuai would never know, otherwise he would be slapped in the face later.

"Unfortunately, I have no spies here. They were just two travelers seeking lodging, and I've already sent them away." Princess Longyu's smile faded, and she squinted at Xie Bohuai. "Or perhaps, you don't trust me?"

Xie Bohuai had noticed Princess Longyu's neglect of state affairs in recent years. Could such a person be related to the Ye family?

After Ye fled, Xie Bohuai stopped believing everything Ye said.

The story of his family being destroyed and him being forced to seek refuge with relatives in the capital is all a lie!

If he catches that swindler Ye, he'll definitely show her the power of the Town Government Office!

"May I ask, Your Highness, where did the person go?" Xie Bohuai asked.

"How would I know? They're not my people. Asking like that makes you seem too presumptuous. Xie Bohuai, I no longer care about your affairs. You should go back if you have nothing else to do. I'm not feeling well and don't have time to waste on you." Princess Longyu paused, then said sarcastically, "It's rare for someone to have played a trick on you. I should really keep them here and let them tell me what happened. Why don't you tell me?"

Xie Bohuai looked at Princess Longyu, trying to figure out if she was lying, but Princess Longyu was a cunning old fox, and he couldn't see through her.

As for whether Ye has left, this is impossible to verify, so we can only leave it at that for now.

Ye Wanning breathed a sigh of relief after Xie Bohuai left.

Le Ge'er looked at his mother in confusion, "Mother, why do we have to hide?"

"Because we don't know if the other party is a good person or a bad person. You know, there are bad people chasing us." Ye Wanning came up with an explanation, touched her son's face, and waited for the palace maid to come to find her before taking her son out from behind the screen.

Princess Longyu invited Ye Wanning and her son to eat, saying, "This Xie Bohuai is probably being tricked for the first time, which is why he came to me in a huff demanding his release. He has offended too many people in recent years, and his temper has become even more violent. People in the capital are afraid of him."

After speaking, Princess Longyu glanced at Le Ge'er. The child hadn't fully grown yet, but his features already resembled Xie Bohuai's. She wondered if some secrets could be kept hidden forever once Le Ge'er grew up.

Ye Wanning thought about it and realized that in the days after she reunited with Xie Bohuai, he had indeed become much more irritable.

"Godmother, won't he come after you to investigate?" Ye Wanning was worried about this.

"Let him do as he pleases. Investigate if he wants. No matter how powerful the Zhenfu Division is, they can't reach my villa." Princess Longyu held Ye Wanning's hand. "Wanning, stay here in peace. Once your face has healed, I will take you back to the capital."

Ye Wanning's face will need another half month to recover, and judging by the time, it will be almost Chinese New Year.

She touched her face, thankfully the powder concealed her appearance; otherwise, the journey would have been too dangerous.

Seeing that Le Ge'er was not as lively as before, Ye Wanning sighed deeply. From now on, she would have to be extra careful in her life.

Living in the villa without fear, time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, more than half a month had gone by, and Ye Wanning's face had almost fully recovered.
