Shen Ningning followed Xiumu and the others and watched the "blood donation" farce in the inn for a few days.

 She didn't say anything in the end, and Hideki and the others decided to give up.

“Four days have passed, and no fewer than two hundred eighteen-year-old girls have come, but none of them are ten princesses.” Hideki shook his head and sighed.

The money given out alone cost more than two hundred taels.

This does not include the cost of renting an inn every day.

Shen Ningning waved her fan lightly, her expression was relaxed, and her eyes were bright when she talked and laughed.

"I've long thought that your method wouldn't work. Mr. Hideki, haven't you ever doubted the authenticity of the person who wrote the letter? If it's false, wouldn't it be a waste of effort?"

Hideki suddenly became serious: "If you have hope, you should give it a try. If you can find the tenth princess, all the efforts will be worth it."

Shen Ningning couldn't explain to him, so she simply got up and left.

When she passed Tuo Ye, she sighed and said in a voice that only he could hear: "It seems that the King of the Sun really cares about this tenth princess."

He does not mean that.

Tuoye frowned slightly, watching Hideki call the secret guards and instruct them to pay attention to the eighteen-year-old woman nearby.

Such importance is not what Hideki said as an excuse.

 It seems that Hideki's main task this time should be to find the ten princesses.

The jade ring was kept by Shen Ningning, and Hideki gave it to Tuoye to keep it.

  Shen Ningning left the inn and when she boarded the carriage, out of the corner of her eye she saw a person poking his head around the corner.

She squinted her eyes and looked carefully, and saw Su Zhirou with her maid.

Su Zhirou looked at the inn, not knowing what she was staring at, and she was acting furtively.

Shen Ningning's eyes changed. She called the guards around her and whispered a few words before getting into the carriage and leaving.

   *

Pei Yin is back.

He took the initiative to come to Qi Mansion to find Qi Xiuwei, preparing to take Meng Yi back.

In order to avoid suspicion, he didn't even enter the Qi Mansion.

Qi Xiuwei walked to the door wearing a bright blue and white dress, holding Mengyi's cage in her hand.

"Master Pei, just come back. It's been a long and dusty journey, thank you for your hard work."

 Qi Xiuwei handed over Meng Yi and spoke to him with a blushing face.

Pei Yin's expression had a hint of color: "It's not hard work, I'm just doing things for the emperor. I also want to thank Miss Qi for being willing to help me take care of Meng Yi. He didn't cause any trouble, did he?"

 Qi Xiuwei thought for a moment.

If it frightens Lu Shaoyuan's parrot and makes it talk nonsense, then this is not considered causing trouble, but it is indeed not.

Qi Xiuwei smiled and shook her head.

She saw a tear in Pei Yin's sleeve, as if cut with a knife, and the cut was neat and clean.

 Suddenly surprised: "Master Pei, are you injured?"

Pei Yin followed Qi Xiuwei's eyes and looked down.

He said nonchalantly: "No, I was chasing someone else and I didn't pay attention, so I almost got ambushed."

When Qi Xiuwei heard this, her face turned pale.

 What mission was he on that was so dangerous?

Pei Yin was a man of few words, but Qi Xiuwei looked at him with concern.

 He couldn't help but explain a few more sentences.

"Don't worry, Miss Qi, he's just an ordinary little thief."

 Qi Xiuwei breathed a sigh of relief and secretly remembered that his clothes were torn.

As Pei Yin was leaving, he suddenly remembered something and turned around to ask, "When I came here, I saw a few people on the street who spoke with a Changliu accent. Has anyone from the Changliu Kingdom entered the city recently?"

Qi Xiuwei smiled and said: "Previously, Chang Liu Kingdom arranged envoys to congratulate Ning Ning and Ji Yan. They must have not left the capital yet."

Hearing these words, Pei Yin's face turned cold.

 He nodded slightly: "I understand, thank you very much, Miss Qi."

Subsequently, Pei Yin quickly mounted his horse and drove away. Qi Xiuwei watched his figure getting further and further away, and couldn't help but think of his face that suddenly became cold just now.

Pei Yin had such an attitude after hearing the name of Changliu Kingdom.

Qi Xiuwei heard that Pei Yin's father was a soldier and died under the sword of the Changliu people.

 So he wanted to join the army and learn skills to avenge his family.

However, the commander of the Forbidden Army appreciated him and brought him into the Forbidden Army for training.

Over the years, Pei Yin may have been waiting for the opportunity to personally go to the battlefield to face the enemy Changliu Kingdom.

 The summer sun is hot and dry, and the wind is gentle.

 It was just after noon, and there were not many pedestrians on the street.

 A carriage brought up flying dust and stopped suddenly at the door of the inn.

 A beautiful and powerful woman came down from above.

The aunt beside her said: "Madam, this is right here. I heard from the young lady of the Su family that last time she saw our adults following a long-haired girl in. She also asked the waiter that the adults opened an inn here for that girl. !”

The beautiful woman's face darkened with anger: "Okay, Zhang Man is really capable. I serve my parents-in-law and raise my children at home. I originally thought it would be hard enough for him to be a deputy general in the military camp, so I never told him about the difficulties at home. So that he doesn’t have to worry.”

"He's so good now. He actually opens an inn for other women and raises an outhouse like others? Come on! Let's catch this little prostitute and parade her through the streets today. I'll see how she behaves."

As soon as she finished speaking, another carriage arrived.

Su Zhirou opened the curtain, looking anxious.

“Mrs. Zhang, please listen to my explanation, Mrs. Zhang!”

Mrs. Zhang glanced at her, and the nun beside her said: "Miss Su is here, just in time. Let her tell us which room the little prostitute is hiding in."

Su Zhirou hurriedly got out of the carriage, with a dozen servants behind her.

 Her white forehead was sweating profusely.

"Mrs. Zhang, why did you come so directly to catch an adulterer? If you have anything to do, it's better to go back and discuss it with Deputy General Zhang. If you really catch something, if it is revealed that it was me who instigated it, wouldn't it... wouldn't it be destroying you? The relationship between husband and wife.”

Mrs. Zhang's face turned serious: "He is hiding in the golden house outside. As his legitimate wife, of course I have to take care of him. Don't worry, Miss Su, this is our husband and wife's own business and will never involve you."

 Looking at the many servants behind Su Zhirou, Mrs. Zhang was actually a little hesitant.

 After all, catching an adulterer is a disgraceful thing.

She didn’t want to make any noise, so she only brought a confidant, a nun.

But Su Zhirou was followed by more than a dozen servants. If they all saw it, the news that Zhang Man kept his wife would definitely spread in the capital tomorrow.

Mrs. Zhang calmed down and asked in a cold voice: "Miss Su, are you sure you saw my husband Zhang Man when you passed by the inn last time?"

Su Zhirou looked like a weak Liu Fufeng.

She nodded lightly: "Yes, the reason why I knew it was Vice General Zhang was because I injured my ankle that day and received help in the Chen Jiajun's barracks where Vice General Zhang was. At that time, I saw Zhang following General Chen. Lieutenant General."

“Because they were kind to me, we met them on the street that day. I wanted to say hello, but unexpectedly, I saw Vice General Zhang leading another...other woman."

 The fire in Mrs. Zhang’s heart felt like a spoonful of oil had been poured on it!

  Before she got married, she was also a general, and she couldn’t tolerate any sand in her eyes!

 “Let’s go up and have a look!” Mrs. Zhang said angrily, turned around and went up.

Su Zhirou hurriedly stopped her: "Mrs. Zhang, don't be impulsive. Maybe I saw it wrong. After all, I have only met Deputy General Zhang once. Madam Zhang, please calm down!"

 Mrs. Zhang got angry and pushed her aside.

"This matter has nothing to do with you, you don't have to worry." After saying that, she picked up her skirt and entered the inn.

That menacing and aggressive look frightened the waiter at a loss.

Su Zhirou stood at the door of the inn, a smile of success flashed across her eyes.

 She turned back and looked at the group of servants she had brought with her.

"What are you doing standing still? Go and help. If there's a quarrel, be sure to break up the fight, lest the couple get into trouble and it's my fault instead."

 “Yes.” The servants rushed in.

Su Zhirou followed slowly.

 She will ruin Chen Shaobei's reputation today!
