“You’re not stupid, just that you’re straightforward with your words.” Yang Wanning hesitated momentarily and added, “But you should be careful with your words in the future.
“If my father hears what 1 said today, he will definitely be angry. At that time, he might even find trouble with you or even your Imperial Residence.”
“If he dares, I’ll let Imperial Uncle deal with him. Besides, I’m telling the truth.”
“Sometimes you can’t always tell the truth. You should give King An a reminder later.”
Mingyu looked at her solemn expression and finally nodded.
After that, the more they chatted, the more they bonded. They even laughed out loud from time to time.
Sitting in the pavilion next door, the Eighth Princess gritted her teeth when she heard their laughter.
Thinking of her mother’s plan, she summoned her personal palace maid, Lian Qiao, and whispered some instructions.
Lian Qiao nodded and left in a hurry.
Not long after, a palace maid carried a pot of water into the pavilion where Yang Wanning and the others were.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to refill the teapot, she deliberately tilted her foot so that the teapot spout was facing Yang Wanning, and the water spilled all over her.
It was so hot that Yang Wanning stood in shock and pulled out her undergarments.
Seeing this, Mingyu stepped forward and slapped the palace maid. “What are you doing?”
After saying that, she checked on Yang Wanning and asked, “Wanning, are you alright?”
“Fortunately, the water is not too hot. Otherwise, a layer of my skin would have peeled off.” Yang Wanning shook her head.
“Let’s go. I’ll bring you to change your clothes. Otherwise, your clothes won’t dry in time.” After Mingyu finished speaking, she brought her out of the pavilion.
When the wind blew on the road, Yang Wanning’s wet left leg felt a bone-piercing chill.
At the same time, she was also thinking about the possibility of a conspiracy. She was afraid that this was another scheme devised by Madam Cui. If she went to change her clothes, would she be set up again?
Thinking of this, the vigilance in her heart tightened, and she grabbed Mingyu tightly. As long as they were still together, no one would dare scheme against her.
However, her guesses were soon verified.
Princess Mingyu had just sent Yang Wanning to the lounge when a eunuch came to look for her. He said that the Emperor was waiting anxiously for her.
Only then did Mingyu realize she had something to discuss with the Emperor. She could only arrange for a palace maid to send Yang Wanning some clothes and leave quickly.
Seeing this, Yang Wanning had no choice but to be vigilant.
On the other end, Zhou Ying saw that Yang Wanning’s clothes were wet. She informed Gu Chengrui and then went back to keep an eye on Yang Wanning.
After Gu Chengrui received the news, he realized someone was plotting against Yang Wanning.
Therefore, he went to the Third Prince and said he wanted to send Yang Wanning some clothes.
The Third Prince nodded and sent Granny Liu to rush over with her clothes and palace maids.
On the other end, after Yang Wanning entered the lounge, the palace maid quickly sent over a set of Mingyu clothes. However, she was knocked unconscious and brought to a room next door.
Seeing this, Zhou Ying simply used her spiritual senses to knock out the palace maid who had knocked out the one bringing clothes.
Yang Wanning quickly changed her clothes. As soon as she removed her clothes, Zhou Ying saw a eunuch blowing smoke into the room.
Zhou Ying used her spiritual senses to block the mouth of his pipe, and the eunuch immediately choked and fainted.
Later, Granny Liu also arrived with her clothes. When she saw a fainted eunuch holding a blowpipe outside, she roughly understood what had happened..
