Chapter 19.2 - The second gift
“From their appearances, it should be the second and seventh prince.” Reflecting on the people he had seen by the eldest miss’ side, the person replied and considered the possibility of them using a disguise.
But it would probably be hard to impersonate those two so he thought a bit and then added another phrase, “It is them.”
“Oh?” Lou Qingwu opened her eyes, “Why would they come here?”
“This …. Your subordinate doesn’t know.” He was also curious. Those grand princes, why would they run over to a subject’s residence?
“Do you need your subordinate to investigate further?”
“No, there’s no need.” Xiahou Rui and Xiahou Liuyun’s martial arts were pretty good so further investigation would only unnecessarily alarm them.
She wouldn’t do such a risky thing when her foundations weren’t yet secure.
Furthermore, according to her understanding of those two, she didn’t think they were here to investigate anything.
If they wanted to investigate anything, they would just send their confidants here.
Seeing their timing, it was mostly likely something to do with Xiahou Liuyun.
Xiahou Liuyun, the current dynasty’s seventh prince, had a strange habit.
Wherever there was gossip, he’d be there.
Furthermore, this gossip-loving and addicted prince’s personality meant that he’d frequent the city’s taverns and street stalls, wherever there were gossip and rumours floating around.
From her point of view, he had most likely seen the drama that unfolded in front of the Lou residence but wanted more, so then he would’ve dragged Xiahou Rui to inside the residence to watch.
But, it would’ve been a strange coincidence that he had happened to see that play.
Even though they had watched that drama, there was no real harm to her, it was only beneficial for her.
After all, amongst the princes, only the second prince Xiahou Rui and seventh prince Xiahou Liuyun were born from the empress.
And that empress was extremely doting of Lou Lianxin because of all these years that Lou Lianxin had schemed her way into currying favour with the empress.
If it wasn’t for Lou Lianxin digging her own grave, asking the empress to bestow her to Li Jingsheng, it would’ve been likely that the empress would bestow her to Xiahou Liuyun as a side-consort.
It was a pity that Lou Lianxin had decided to cut off her own social climbing path herself …
And now that the current Xiahou Liuyun knew Lou Lianxin’s real face, with his drama-stirring personality, he’d definitely make tonight’s banquet a memorable one.
Thinking of this, Lou Qingwu slowly turned around and looked towards the man in front of her.
He was about 25-26 years old, with a steady and introverted personality.
After a few years of grinding and training, his personality had become molded to remove his previous reckless and impatience.
It seemed that leaving him here, three years ago, at the Lou residence had been a good decision.
At least today, he had helped her.
Outside of the Lou residence, she had ripped off Lou Lianxin’s painstakingly maintained beautiful facade that she had carefully curated over years.
So she definitely wouldn’t let bygones by bygones.
In this case, Lou Qingwu had sent a letter a few days ago to tell this man to prepare.
When Dong Mei started to move, he had already impersonated an ordinary servant to infiltrate Leaning Wind Pavilion’s wing.
He had waited for Dong Mei to place the bracelet inside her cloth bundle before switching the items when she had turned around.
Then after waiting for everyone to search her rooms, secretly placed the item into Dong Mei’s bosom to remove this ha.s.sle once and for all.
Afterwards, then her real return gift would begin.
She hoped that her second gift wouldn’t be too disliked by her good little sister.
“Have you sent out the item?”
“Half a month ago, your subordinate had already ordered someone to prepare it properly. Second miss hasn’t suspected anything.”
After all, in all these years, second miss had used these items many times over the years to gain fame and acclaim.
The higher she stood, the more it would hurt when she fell.
“Eldest miss, seeing as how much you hate the second miss, why don’t you …” The man lifted his head, his dark eyes flashing a dark light.
Lou Qingwu understood his meaning.
But simply killing her with a single blade wouldn’t be fun.
“Tang Er, do you know, how to make a person feel the most pain?”

TL note
Tang two - Tang is the surname, he’s number two. Is Tang Two a better way, or Tang Er to address him?
