Han Mingyi said no more after that because a gorgeous carriage had already appeared at the city gate with hundreds of guards in the front and back, each of them appearing sturdily built. Even the horses were a great deal larger than the average ones.
“Let’s head out." Han Mingyi spurred his horse on to the outside of the city gates, and it just so happened that the carriage came to a halt as well.
“I didn’t expect Prince Ding to personally come and welcome me. I, Zhen, am honored!" Zhao Zhen opened the door of the carriage and stepped out, looking at Han Mingyi from the carriage.
He wore an enchanting red robe, with inky black hair that reached down to his waist. His face was not inferior to Han Mingyi’s, but Han Mingyi had a more resolute appearance, whereas he was more feminine.
“Marquis Zhen came personally to my country of Feng Ming, so it is only natural that I, Mingyi, should personally come to welcome you," Han Mingyi said, cupping his hands in greeting. "The inn has already been prepared. Please come this way.”
“After you, Prince Ding.” Zhao Zhen entered his carriage when he finished speaking. Han Mingyi and Ji Liu Feng left first, and Zhao Zhen’s carriage followed closely.
Han Mingyi brought Zhao Zhen out to the posthouse, where Lu Junqi had previously stayed. When Zhao Zhen got off the carriage and saw the gates of the posthouse, his eyes lit up, and an undetectable smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.
This place—he had in fact been here before!
“This is Zhen’s first time here in Feng Ming. If Prince Ding has any spare time, could you perhaps take me around? I’ve always heard that Feng Ming is the most bustling city!” Zhao Zhen said while looking at Han Mingyi.
"Haha, it just so happens that the academy’s competitions are being held during these couple of few days. I, Mingyi, am responsible for the safety of all of the students during this period, so I really don’t have much spare time. However, if you’re still interested afterward, I could take you to see the graceful bearings of the students from Northern Yuan," Han Mingyi replied.
"I remember now. The competitions are indeed being held during this time. It was originally said that it was to be held in my country, Northern Yuan, but because of the recent disturbances, there was no choice but to change the location to here. Since it's here, I will definitely take the time and go have a look," Zhao Zhen said with a smile.
When Han Mingyi entered the posthouse, a person immediately greeted him. So Han Mingyi let them lead the way and went with Zhao Zhen to the courtyard that had been arranged for him.
"Marquis Zhen, I pass down the Emperor’s words to you. Marquis Zhen must be tired from traveling on the road, so rest first for today. Tomorrow, there will be an envoy to bring you into the palace. This Prince still has matters to attend to, so I will take my leave. Please rest well, Marquis Zhen."
"Since Prince Ding has matters to attend to, Zhen will not keep you any longer. Please, after you."
The two cupped their hands together and bade each other goodbye. Then Han Mingyi left the posthouse.
"Little Linlin."
"Your subordinate is here," Zhao Zhen's personal bodyguard said while walking in, "Master."
"Little Linlin, I didn't think our turn to stay here would arrive so soon." Zhao Zhen sighed.
"Yes," Little Linlin responded.
"I heard that the poison was treated by Han Mingyi’s little fiancee? Wasn't that the child we saw back then?" Zhao Zhen asked.
"It should be."
"It’s no wonder such a small child was invited over at the time." Zhao Zhen smiled darkly. "Have someone investigate this little doll. This Marquis spent a thousand gold to buy the Amalgamation of Ice and Fire only for her to solve it just like this, so this Marquis has some interest in her."
"Will do," Little Linlin said and exited.
"Oh, Han Mingyi, fiancee, little doll... When will we meet......"
In the night, Han Minghong was soaking in the bathtub, and all he could think about was Du Xiaoli. Thinking about how she would rather let others know that the secret book was in her hands than follow him filled his heart with burning rage, and he hit the side of the bathtub fiercely.
"Your Majesty, this servant has come to refill the hot water for you," a servant said from outside the privacy screen.
"Come in."
The servant came in from outside and reached out his hand to test the water. Using a gourd ladle, he scooped up some hot water and added it to the tub. Then he bowed and retreated. When he retreated behind Han Minghong, he quietly sprinkled some medicinal powder in the water. Meanwhile, Han Minghong was busy thinking about how to deal with Du Xiaoli and didn’t notice a single thing.
The boy retreated outside and threw the bucket in his hand into the flower bed. The bucket just so happened to land right next to a person, but the sound didn't attract the man's attention. That was because he had already been knocked unconscious early on.
The task had been completed, and the boy avoided the guards in the prince's mansion, easily getting out of Prince Ren's Manor. After exiting, he took off the clothes on his body and tore off the human skin mask on his face. The bland boy immediately turned into the pretty Ying Ge.
"Let’s see if you—you perverted stud—will think about my lady again! Hehe, I wonder what expression you'll have when you see yourself like this. If Mistress didn't tell me to return as soon as I succeeded, I would stay behind to enjoy this. Hmph, this is really letting you off easily!"
Once she was done speaking, she dusted her hands and went back.
When Ying Ge left, a figure emerged from the darkness. It was Leng Er, who was originally supposed to be by Han Mingyi’s side.
Leng Er, who was dressed in black, looked in the direction that Ying Ge had left for. Thinking of the playful words she said just earlier, he laughed slightly. Then he took out a face scarf and put it on. After that, he jumped into Prince Ren’s Manor.
Ying Ge walked for two blocks but still could not resist the curiosity in her heart. After struggling for a bit, she returned and reentered Prince Ren’s Manor through the very same route Leng Er had taken.
Before she came, she had thoroughly familiarized herself with the layout of Prince Ren's Manor, so she just followed her memory and arrived at Han Minghong's bedroom. Then she removed one of the roof tiles and peeked inside.
After a while, the bedroom door was opened, and Han Minghong—dressed in his pajamas—came in from outside. He stretched this way and that before sitting down by the bed.
His personal servant came forward and asked, "Your Highness, which lady would you like to invite to serve you in bed tonight?"
"Whose turn is it today?" Han Minghong asked, "Forget it. This Prince is tired of seeing those women. Just invite the new concubine who arrived yesterday."
"Yes, this servant will go and fetch Beauty Yu here." The servant retreated and left Han Minghong's courtyard.MoonWhisperer, skyrise's Thoughts
