Rong Jinghua smiled and gestured for Leng Shuang to stand up before she sat down on the main seat. “Leng Shuang, didn’t my mother ask you to follow Lil t Thirteen? Since you’re here, you Lil t Thirteen must have sneaked out again,
“Yes, the thirteenth princess said she must apologize to the young prince. Your Highness, all of this is not important. The most important thing is that the thirteenth princess said that the voice of the person who spoke to Gu Lingyue at that time was very similar to the voice of the grandma we met before,” Leng Shuang said nervously.
Rong Jinghua narrowed his eyes, and the smile on his lips disappeared. “That day when I accidentally bumped into the grandma in the building, didn’t you say that Lil t Thirteen was asleep and didn’t hear anything?
Leng Shuang had rarely seen Rong Jinghua speak in such a cold tone. She was so scared that her legs went weak. She knelt down and said weakly, “That day, I ran into the crown prince and the grandma talking about something. I was worried that the Thirteenth Princess would spill the beans, so I put sleeping pills in her tea. By right, as long as the princess drinks the tea, she shouldn’t hear anything she shouldn’t hear…”
“Then can you guarantee that Lil t Thirteen drank that cup of tea that day?” Rong Jinghua let out a soft groan and looked at Leng Shuang, who was at a loss. “It seems like you can’t guarantee that.”
Leng Shuang was so frightened that she kept kowtowing. “l beg for Your Highness’s forgiveness. It was this servant’s fault. This servant will be careful next time. I will not be negligent again!’
“Shh, you’re too noisy.” Rong Jinghua shook his head in dissatisfaction. He raised a finger to her lips and stopped Leng Shuang from speaking.
Leng Shuang did not dare to disobey and shut her mouth timidly.
“l have never liked people who do not do things well, but this matter can not be blamed on you. Lil e Thirteen is after all my blood related little sister and I can not bear to make her forever silent. This matter ends here. This palace will send secret guards to accompany you to the regent prince’s residence to pick up Lil’ Thirteen, and you can bring her back to the palace,” Rong Jinghua said with a calm expression.
Leng Shuang did not expect Rong Jinghua to let the matter go so easily. She looked at Rong Jinghua carefully and said, “Your Highness, if the thirteenth Princess were to mention this to anyone else in the future…”
“If you can give Lil t Thirteen sleeping pills, you can naturally give her other pills. 1 have a good thing here that can make people unable to sleep day and night. As long as they fall asleep, they will fall into a deep nightmare. It is just right for you to use to make Lil t Thirteen obedient.” Rong Jinghua took out a green bottle of medicine and handed it to Leng Shuang. “Remember to put it in the cake. Lil t Thirteen does not like bitter medicine.” He smiled. Leng Shuang took the medicine from Rong Jinghua with trembling hands.
“Peng Zhou.” Rong Jinghua retracted his gaze and called out to the door.
Outside the hall, a man in a black robe with long eyebrows and thin eyes walked in quickly and bowed to Rong Jinghua. “l wonder what instructions Your Highness has for me?”
“Go with Leng Shuang to the prince regent’s residence to bring the thirteenth princess back to the palace. Remember, the roads are frozen in winter and when Lil t Thirteen got off the carriage, she accidentally slipped and hit her head. She will need a few days to recuperate and it is not suitable for her to see anyone.” As Rong Jinghua spoke, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Peng Zhou’s expression was cold. After cupping his hands respectfully, he retreated with Leng Shuang, whose legs were weak.
The thirteenth princess had no idea what kind of torture she was about to face. She sat in the main hall of the prince regent’s residence, opened her mouth, and allowed Gu Qingxue to examine her broken front tooth..
