Li Manting said politely: "The weather has been changing a lot these days, and I have a rash on my face, so I wore a veil. I didn't mean to imitate someone else."

Ye Zhenyu snorted softly, rolled up his sleeves, and left with his staff.

Li Manting looked at Ye Zhenyu's leaving figure and pinched her palms with her long nails without feeling any pain.

Life in the palace was boring, so she would come to the fish pond every day to feed the fish to kill the loneliness.

Just now, the maid came to report that the prince was by the fish pond. She was overjoyed and trotted over with her skirt in hand, just to have a seemingly accidental encounter with him.

Na Cheng thought that he actually didn't even look at her.

I just glanced at it, but I was still asking questions related to Li Yuyan. Wearing a veil, is it possible that all the women wearing veils in the world have learned from Li Yuyan?

When Jin Jue noticed blood overflowing from her palm, she exclaimed: "Concubine, you are injured!"

Li Manting looked at the blood on her palms and sneered.z.br

In the past few months, Ye Zhenyu had not spent a single night in her room.

These days were lonely and empty. In the past, there were other women who were scheming with her. Recently, for some reason, he had dismissed all the other women.

At first, she thought that since she was the only one left in the house, she, as the concubine, was undoubtedly the same as the main concubine.

However--

Until one day, she saw a painting in his study.

The person painted in the painting is none other than Li Yuyan!

His study did not allow her to enter. That day, she went to deliver supper. When she arrived at the door of the study, she was stopped by the guard. At that moment, she saw him unfolding a painting of a beautiful woman and looking at it carefully. The woman in the painting was transformed into a girl.

Hui, she could tell it was Li Yuyan at a glance.

She never knew that Ye Zhenyu actually had feelings for Li Yuyan.

She originally thought that he was greedy for Li Yuyan's stunning beauty and graceful figure, but some time ago she realized that the reason why he sent away other women was because he was attracted to Li Yuyan.

The Tian family has always been cold-hearted, and so is Ye Zhenyu.

How did the cold-hearted Ye Zhenyu become interested in Li Yuyan?

Li Manting's heart began to grow cold, and she even thought that Ye Zhenyu kept her because he wanted to please Li Yuyan.

After all, she and Li Yuyan were sworn enemies, and he might have kept her just so that Li Yuyan could execute her with his own hands, so as to take the opportunity to win Li Yuyan's favor.

Jin Jue took out a handkerchief and covered Li Manting's wound: "Concubine, please don't leave a scar on your palm. The prince will definitely not be happy to see it."

Hearing this, Li Manting became even more angry and slapped Jin Jue: "Are you even here to teach me a lesson?"

Jin Jue hurriedly knelt down: "I don't dare!"

Suddenly, Li Manting laughed. Isn't it rumored recently that Li Yuyan fell off the cliff with the deposed prince?

It would be best to let the wild beast eat Li Yuyan until she is unrecognizable, so as to relieve the hatred in her heart!

the other side.

On the boat, Jiang Yu felt happy when she saw Ye Yiheng standing alone on the bow of the boat, looking like the charming women she had seen on the boat before, and walked gracefully over slowly.

"Brother Ali, what are you looking at?"

Ye Yiheng saw her coming and instinctively wanted to leave, but thought of some questions she wanted to ask, so she stopped abruptly: "Are most of the passengers on this ship going to Yaozhou?"

"Yes, our ship goes to and from Linzhou and Yaozhou in Kyoto twice a month, so many of the passengers know each other. Most of the passengers on the return trip are from Yaozhou."

"I see."

Jiang Yu asked: "Why do you ask that?"

"I saw that there were fewer passengers disembarking halfway, so I asked casually."

"Where is Brother Ali going?"

Ye Yiheng said calmly: "Passing through Yaozhou."

Jiang Yu wanted to ask more questions, but Ye Yiheng nodded slightly and walked away.

The next day in the afternoon.

Li Zheng came to Aqiang's house with the portrait, saw Aqiang and his son chopping firewood in the yard, and greeted them with a smile.

"Old man, Aqiang, I heard that two overnight guests came to your house a few days ago?"

Ali's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were papering the windows when they heard the sound and quickly put down their work and left the house.

The aunt glanced at Lizheng and saw that he was holding a scroll in his hand. Then she turned to her husband and said, "The child's father."

The old man split the firewood in his hand and put the ax on the ground: "Two distant relatives came to live here. What happened?"

Li Zheng unfolded the scroll and explained: "I should have come here a few days ago, but it was difficult to walk on the snowy road, so I came today."

In fact, there was an order from above to thoroughly investigate the homes around the capital that were hosting strangers.

The four members of the old man's family all looked at the portrait.

"This man has his eyes covered. Is he blind?" The old man pointed at the portrait.

Li Zheng nodded: "You can see that he is indeed a blind man."

While talking, he took out another painting: "Here, the man in this painting has no veil, and you can see his eyebrows. If you think about it carefully, have you seen this man recently?"

Seeing the handsome young husband-in-law in the two paintings, the family of four broke out in a cold sweat, but it didn't show on their faces.

The aunt smiled and said, "We don't know this person."

Li Zheng asked without giving up: "I heard that Gou Sheng Goudan said that there are two people living in your house. You must not protect the bad guys!"

Seeing the silence of the four members of the family, Li Zheng said seriously: "To tell you the truth, this man is the deposed prince. Now the court is looking for him. That's why I came to ask."

The aunt said again: "It is indeed my distant nephew and his new wife who came to my house. Li Zheng, I don't like to hear what you say. Although we have moved out of the village, we still have our house in the village and our household registration is still there.

In the village. Since we are from the same village, you can't slander the fellow villagers like this, right?"

Li Zheng smiled awkwardly: "Madam, what did you say? I'll tell you the truth, the woman next to the deposed prince is most likely Princess Beilan. The two of them have a very good relationship, so I just want to ask clearly."

The old man hummed: "The person in this portrait is extremely handsome. How can my old lady's distant nephew compare with him? This is also true! Li Zheng, if you have such leisurely intentions, you might as well ask elsewhere."

Li Zheng looked at Aqiang and his wife: "Aqiang, please advise your father not to become confused at his old age."

Aqiang smiled and said: "Li Zheng, although my father is old, he is not confused."

Ali quickly echoed: "That's right, Li Zheng, you are about the same age as us, and you should respect the elders and care for the young. These words coming out of your mouth are inconsistent with your status as Li Zheng!"

Li Zheng's face suddenly turned ugly.

The old man sneered: "Our family is coming from a distant relative, how can he be a useless prince? Li Zheng, who would come to live in my small courtyard with no shop in front and no village behind?"

The aunt agreed: "Yes, the deposed prince is also a prince, and he can eat delicacies from all over the world. How can he live in our house? What a joke!"

Li Zheng just looked around: "You are right, I am also annoyed by the tasks above."
