"My girl! What time has it been? If you have anything to do, just tell me!" Wen Chan pulled Qing'e's shoulders and looked into her eyes steadily.
Qing'e covered her face, and after a long while, she took her hand away, her eyes already wet.
Seeing Wen Chan's expectant and searching eyes, she spoke with a choked voice, "I-I seem to have accidentally revealed the identity of our princess!"
"What!" Wen Chan's eyes widened in surprise, and he collapsed on the ground.
"It's all my fault! I-am I going to kill the princess!" Qing'e buried her face in her arms and couldn't help crying, "I am such a heinous sinner!"
After regaining consciousness for a while, Wen Chan struggled to sit up again. He stood up and walked outside the tent to take a look. When he saw no one was walking around, he returned to Qing'e's side.
"Okay, don't cry now. Tell me, who did you reveal this news to? What did you say?"
Qing'e straightened up and wiped the tears from her face, "Last night, I went to the south tent to fetch water for the princess, and I happened to meet Mr. Riasi's brother Erri and a maid in the wooden tent. ."
"Who? There are several maids in his tent!" Errihemu always looked at Jinghua Hairpin with a wrong look, so when he heard this, Wen Chan became a little uneasy.
"The one with the best appearance, the one who can talk about great things! The tall and thin one, a bit - delicate -"
Wen Chan thought for a while, "I know, it's Nandi, what next?"
Qing'e choked a few times and continued: "The water in the tent was not yet hot at that time, so I sat with her in the tent for a while, and she took the initiative to chat with me."
"She asked me, 'Is your master's family really running a bank?' I said 'Yes!' without thinking, and then she tilted her head and looked at me with an unbelievable expression, as if she had seen through it. I'm lying-"
"I asked her with a smile, 'Why are you looking at me like this?' She didn't answer. She got up and looked at the boiling water in the pot. I thought she wouldn't talk to me anymore, but she turned over and sat down again. When she came to my side, her next question made me extremely regretful——" At this point, tears fell from the corners of Qing'e's eyes again.
Wen Chan picked up the handkerchief and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, "What did she ask?"
"She asked - does our girl have a purse with yellow satin and colorful embroidery of butterflies and flowers - I was thinking about something at the time. She was right when I heard her question. I nodded without hesitation. I nodded. Then I remembered that I made a big mistake!”
There was a roar in his head, like five thunders hitting his head. Wen Chan was stunned for a moment and murmured, "You have indeed made a big mistake - in our great scene, only the Tian family can use yellow satin -"
"So, I understand everything! I understand everything! What do you mean, why does Ori and Mu keep whispering about the identity of our princess? That's it! It seems that they really may be from Beidi! Maybe! She has long suspected the identity of our princess!"
With that said, Wen Chan looked at Qing'e as if she was remembering something, "But, how did she know that our princess has a yellow satin purse?"
Qing'e shook her head, "I also asked, and she said that it was their eldest son who said it, and that the purse is now in the hands of their eldest son, and there is a golden phoenix hairpin placed with the purse. She Their eldest son said that the golden hairpin belongs to our princess too!"
Wen Chan lowered his head dejectedly and put a hand on his forehead, "I was negligent! Thinking about it this way, I do already have the princess's golden phoenix hairpin that I haven't seen for a few days!"
"How good is this? If they are really from Beidi, will we die here?" Qing'e grabbed Wen Chan's arm and couldn't help trembling.
After thinking for a long time, Wen Chan pressed Qing'e's cold hand and said, "Don't panic! Don't panic! The more you panic at this time, the easier it is to make mistakes!"
"The purse was in their hands last night. If they want to take action, I'm afraid they won't be able to wait until now - wait until the princess comes back to report to the princess -"
Qing'e started to cry again, "Princess, I can't remember anything yet! What's the use of complaining!"
Wen Chan slapped her forehead hard, "Look at me! I'm confused too! How come they all came together!"
While he was hesitating, there was a sound of footsteps outside the tent.
"Quick! Wipe your tears! Don't let anyone see it!" After saying that, Wen Chan sat upright and picked up a dead branch to pretend to add firewood.
"The sun is very nice today, why don't you two girls go out to enjoy the sunshine?"
As the curtain was lifted, a deep voice came. Wen Chan turned around and saw the person standing at the door with his hands behind his hands. His dark blue cloak hung loosely on his shoulders. His figure was upright, blocking all the light.
