782 The Box Was s.n.a.t.c.hed
Seeing King Fengyu being so attentive, Jiang Ming smiled approvingly.
He looked at Madam Zhenguo and Liu’er Yuanyuan. “I hope you can prepare everything I need now. Don’t make me wait.”
Madam Zhenguo helped Liu’er Yuanyuan up and said immediately, “I’ll get the servants to bring it over now. Don’t worry.”
She knew that she was in the wrong in this matter, and she also knew that some of the problems were caused by Liu’er Yuanyuan, so she actively responded.
However, Liu’er Yuanyuan was not very happy.
The future was not looking good for her.
Who was Ning Caichen? Was it worth it for her husband to go to such lengths for him?
However, this was something that she could no longer involve herself in. She said tactfully, “Since Lord Ning Caichen and the king have something to discuss, I will leave.”
King Fengyu could not wait to let Liu’er Yuanyuan go. He immediately said to Liu’er Yuanyuan, “Go, go.”
Jiang Ming had no interest in staying in the palace. He was only here for Sikong Wuyuan. He looked at King Fengyu and said, “I’m going to see Sikong Wuyuan.”
King Fengyu quickly called for his servants to bring Jiang Ming and Liang Sisi to Sikong Wuyuan.
Sikong Wuyuan was reading a book out of boredom.
He had used up a lot of his strength after being made a puppet by King Fengyu. Now, he only wanted to lie down and rest to replenish his strength.
Sikong Wuyuan’s eyes lit up when he saw Jiang Ming’s figure. He quickly sat up and said, “Ning Caichen, you’re here?”
Jiang Ming gestured for King Fengyu to leave.
King Fengyu was very tactful. He quickly left with his servants.
“How do you feel now?”
“I’m almost fully recovered. I’m just tired and sleepy now. I’ve probably been ordered around by King Fengyu a lot.”
Sikong Wuyuan pursed his lips. He was not happy at all.
He really did not expect that King Fengyu would use this method to trip him up.
Then, he remembered something and covered his mouth with his hand. “The walls have ears. There won’t be anyone nearby, right?”
“No, they won’t be able to stay. They can’t stand my spiritual energy.”
During the tea party, Jiang Ming had already realized that his spiritual energy was higher than everybody else’s.
Now, it was just enough to be used in the royal palace.
As he was thinking about this, Sikong Wuyuan pulled Jiang Ming closer and said mysteriously, “Ning Caichen, do you know the secret of the palace?”
These words aroused Jiang Ming’s interest. Jiang Ming could not help but be curious. “What secret?”
Liang Sisi also sat down and said to Sikong Wu Yuan, “Sikong Wu Yuan, I want to hear it too.”
“You should listen to this matter. If you don’t listen, it’s meaningless,” Sikong Wuyuan said with a faint smile.
These words attracted Jiang Ming and Liang Sisi’s attention even more. Liang Sisi could not wait. “Hurry up and say it.”
“I saw an identical version of you in the back garden of the palace.”
Sikong Wuyuan seemed to be immersed in his memories. His entire being was in that state, and his face was filled with panic and surprise.
Liang Sisi was still eating the pastries beside them. When she heard that, she instantly choked.
She quickly ran to the table and poured herself a cup of tea to alleviate the discomfort.
After everything was sorted out, Liang Sisi did not forget what Sikong Wuyuan had said. She turned to Sikong Wuyuan and said, “Say that again? What did you just say?”
Sikong Wuyuan looked at Liang Sisi and immediately repeated, “I said that there is a person who looks exactly like you in the back garden of the palace.”
“Are you sure you saw it clearly?”
Jiang Ming was confused.
Why would the second princess of the Daliang Kingdom appear in the Fengyu Kingdom?
“Of course, the main point is that the fake Liang Sisi is the first Liang Sisi I’ve seen in women’s clothing.”
Sikong Wuyuan scratched his head and looked at Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming glanced at Liang Sisi. “Have you been here before?”
“That’s impossible,” Liang Sisi said.
Jiang Ming suddenly had a bold idea. He looked at Sikong Wuyuan and said, “Is there a possibility that Liang Sisi isn’t the only one there?”
Liang Sisi also felt that Jiang Ming’s words made sense. She could not help but have a bold idea. “Why don’t we go to the palace tonight?”
Jiang Ming felt that Liang Sisi’s idea was feasible and immediately said to Liang Sisi, “We’ll go tonight, but we have business to attend to now.”
Liang Sisi suddenly thought of Xiao Yu’er and clapped her hands. “Oh right, there’s also the matter of Xiao Yu’er.”
“You guys chat first. I’ll go find Xiao Yu’er first.”
Jiang Ming felt that there was no time to lose, so he immediately told Liang Sisi.
Liang Sisi felt that what Jiang Ming said made sense and immediately said, “Be careful and pay attention to your safety.”
Sikong Wuyuan took out a stone and placed it in Jiang Ming’s hand. “If you have anything to say, just shout for help. This stone will tell us.”
Jiang Ming saw the colorful stone and patted it with his hand. He smiled and said, “I know, don’t worry.”
After taking the stone, Jiang Ming came to the Ruyi Pavilion. At this time, outside the Ruyi Pavilion, Madam Sang held a handkerchief and shouted at the pa.s.sers-by, “h.e.l.lo, come and take a look.”
There were some smiling women standing on the balcony upstairs. They were holding flower baskets and throwing flowers downstairs.
“I’m looking for Ms. Xiao Yu’er.” Jiang Ming walked up to Madam Sang.”
Madam Sang did not recognize Jiang Ming for a long time. Her eyes lit up when she saw Jiang Ming pointing at Xiao Yu’er. She said to Jiang Ming, “Young Master, this way, please. Xiao Yu’er is upstairs.”
As she brought Jiang Ming upstairs, she muttered, “Young Master, have you brought enough silver? It wouldn’t be good if you don’t have enough money.”
Jiang Ming understood the intentions behind her words. He placed the silver that he had prepared in advance in her hand.
When Madam Sang saw the heavy silver taels, her eyes immediately lit up. She hurriedly put the silver taels into her pocket.
“Xiao Yu’er is probably resting now. Young Master can go in and wake Xiao Yu’er up. Xiao Yu’er won’t be angry.”
Madam Sang stopped at the door of a certain room and gestured for Jiang Ming to enter.
Jiang Ming nodded. “I understand. Thank you for your trouble.”
“If there’s anything, you can call me again. I’ll go and greet the other guests.”
As she spoke, she walked down the stairs.
Jiang Ming pushed the door open and saw Xiao Yu’er foaming at the mouth. Her body was trembling, and her eyes were looking at the ceiling. He did not know if she was still breathing.
Jiang Ming quickly walked in front of Xiao Yu’er and felt her pulse.
