An Ruowan didn't expect that he would be the first person to come here after Gu Cong left?
After Shen Qinghai saw An Ruowan, his face was a little worried, but seeing her here didn't seem as miserable as he imagined, which made him feel relieved a little.
"Auntie Huang, what's going on with the letter in your room? Zi Yi is so anxious at home that she insists on urging me to go into the palace to take a look."
Shen Qinghai didn't say it, but he was actually very worried.
Originally, An Ruowan wanted to wait before making any move, but since Shen Qinghai was here today, it was a coincidence that it was better to come sooner than later, so An Ruowan waved to him.
Seeing this, Shen Qinghai looked at her mysterious appearance and leaned his head over.
After hearing everything An Ruowan said, he opened his eyes wide and said, "Auntie Huang, you are really..."
Before Shen Qinghai could finish speaking, An Ruowan shook her head at him.
"Okay, okay, it's not okay yet!"
Shen Qinghai has been in for a long time, and the guards outside the door are even more worried that other problems will arise if the time is delayed for too long.
Before the guard could speak again, Shen Qinghai nodded solemnly at An Ruowan, then turned and walked back.
After leaving the dungeon, Shen Qinghai walked straight out of the palace gate.
Looking at Shen Qinghai's back, a person not far away was frowning calmly.
"Are you going to keep an eye on Uncle Guo, just in case?"
"No need."
Gu Cong walked back without looking back, "I also want to see how capable Auntie Huang is."
After leaving the palace, Shen Qinghai walked straight towards the mansion, and finally saw Chu Ziyi. After holding back all the way, he was finally able to speak.
"Don't worry, Auntie Huang will be fine, but before that, you come with me to meet someone."
Seeing the expression on Shen Qinghai's face, Chu Ziyi didn't ask any questions, and the two of them got on the carriage and headed out of the city.
After the carriage stopped, Chu Ziyi looked at this unfamiliar place and subconsciously frowned, but continued to walk forward. It didn't take long for the two of them to see a house.
After pushing the door open and entering, the old woman in the room unconsciously looked over, but when she saw that the person outside the room was not that familiar figure, the light in her eyes dimmed.
"Who are you looking for?"
Hearing this, Shen Qinghai took a step forward and said, "We are looking for you. Princess Yuanshuang asked us to come."
After hearing this, the old woman turned her attention to them again, "I am just an old woman. I don't know any princess. You have found the wrong person."
Seeing that the old woman was about to drive them away, Shen Qinghai became anxious, "Why don't you know me? That's what my aunt told me. If not you, then who else could it be?"
Chu Ziyi didn't quite understand what was going on, and everyone in the room was stunned.
The old woman's eyes fell on Shen Qinghai again, as if she had just recognized him, "Uncle Guo?"
"you know me?"
Shen Qinghai was still thinking about how to get the old woman to follow them. When he heard the old woman speak, he unconsciously raised his head.
"If it's Uncle Guo, that's right. What happened to Princess Yuanshuang?"
Listening to the old woman's completely different words, Shen Qinghai didn't bother to ask her why she had such a change in attitude, and just told what happened to An Ruowan.
Hearing this, the old woman frowned unconsciously, and she also had doubts about An Ruowan's purpose of saving her in the first place.
Seeing that she didn't speak for a long time, Chu Ziyi lost her patience, "Since Ruowan asked us to come to you, we must have something to ask for. If you don't want to, you can just say it and I will think of other ways."
Chu Ziyi thought the matter was simple. If the old woman was unwilling to help, they shouldn't waste their time here.
The old woman chuckled, she was somewhat interested in the young lady from General Weiyuan's Mansion, "The old woman didn't say she wouldn't help, but she didn't expect that the princess would place her hopes on such a bad old woman like me. "
Before she finished speaking, the old woman stood up and bowed to the two of them respectfully.
"Uncle Guo, shall we go?"
After finishing his words, Shen Qinghai still didn't know who the old woman in front of him was and why she knew his identity.
But now was obviously not the time to dwell on this matter, so he turned around and walked back with the old woman.
But the carriage did not stop outside his residence, but went directly to Prince Rong's residence.
When Gu Beichen heard that Shen Qinghai came to the door with an old woman, he let people in without thinking.
"I've met Prince Rong."
"Your Majesty! I'm so exhausted."
When Shen Qinghai thought that he had finished everything An Ruowan told him, his face became a little more happy, and he went straight over and sat down next to Gu Beichen.
He didn't want to look at Beichen, but his eyes fell directly on the old woman beside him.
"Who is this person?"
"Auntie Huang asked me to bring it here."
Shen Qinghai simply repeated what An Ruowan said in the dungeon, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. He was really exhausted today.
Gu Beichen's eyes fell on the old woman, as if he understood something, "Were you in the crown prince's womb before?"
The old woman nodded slightly but said nothing.
As soon as he heard this, Shen Qinghai stood up straight away, "I really didn't expect that this prince, who is usually so quiet, could come up with such a damaging move to deal with the emperor's aunt."
Chu Ziyi next to her opened her eyes wide and looked at everyone in the room with no surprise on their faces. She was the only one who didn't know about this.
But before she could speak, Gu Beichen came to the old woman.
"So if it's too late, what can you do to help?"
The old woman stood up and said, "This old slave's life was saved by the princess."
One sentence made Gu Beichen understand what the old woman meant, "Okay, then tell me what you know."
"There is a person beside His Royal Highness who is good at imitating other people's handwriting."
Hearing this, something strange flashed across Gu Beichen's eyes, imitating it, which meant that someone had given away An Ruowan's things.
"Qingfeng, go check out the servants in Ruowan Courtyard recently."
A gust of wind blew by, and Gu Beichen knew that Qingfeng had gone to An Ruowan's courtyard.
Seeing Gu Beichen's confident look, Shen Qinghai secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he had found the right person.
"Now that the prince is on hand for today's matter, I can rest assured."
After saying that, Shen Qinghai stood up and prepared to leave with Chu Zi.
"It'll be fine if you have a party, right?"
But when Chu Ziyi left, she still felt a little uneasy.
"Don't worry, Auntie Huang is fine inside."
With Shen Qinghai's words, Chu Ziyi turned and left with doubts.
When there was no one else in the room, Gu Beichen sat down again, his eyes filled with displeasure. He knew what Gu Cong wanted.
However, he would never let Gu Cong succeed.
Soon Qingfeng returned to Gu Beichen, "The only ones who have been to the princess's courtyard in the past few days are those two first-class maids."
