Never anticipated that the one he loved regarded the Fifth Imperial Princess as his only, but to the Fifth Imperial Princess, he was not the only one; he was rely one among many, and the relationship between them could only be considered a fleeting affair.
Liang Zhichen fell silent again for a mont: "You and I are on the sa path, and what I aim to do is exactly what you hope for. However, if your wife truly is that Fifth Imperial Princess, then there is a secret palace affair you might not be aware of."
"I don’t know? Is this related to Pearl?"
Pearl was exactly the na of the Fifth Imperial Princess.
Liang Zhichen chuckled lightly, "I can’t say much about this, but you might want to ask Prince ng. Prince ng is by no ans a mundane fool. She has long known your identity yet hasn’t exposed you. You might as well ask her. I think maybe she’ll unravel this mystery for you."
Xiao Qingyao was silent for a while, "Thank you!"
The conversation ended, and Liang Zhichen left the Prince ng Mansion.
Xiao Qingyao pondered Liang Zhichen’s advice, hesitated for a while, and then headed towards the Prince ng’s Study Room.
He stood outside the door, and the guard notified Prince ng.
Prince ng summoned him.
Inside the study, they knew each other, but neither spoke. Until Xiao Qingyao broke the silence, "Your Highness, when did you know about my identity?"
Prince ng calmly took a book out of the drawer, "I never readily trust anyone, and anyone who cos to my mansion, even knowing they are a spy sent by soone, I must get to the bottom of it to put myself at ease. This is a result of the environnt, and ’Doctor Yao,’ before you ca to my mansion, you were unknown. I investigated for a long ti but could never find out who sent you. Until I received this secret report."
He flipped open the book and took out a secret letter sandwiched in the middle, which recorded Xiao Qingyao’s life.
Prince ng generously spread the secret letter on the table, allowing Xiao Qingyao to see it clearly.
Xiao Qingyao saw that a period had been sketched under the letter with a brush. He hadn’t expected that Prince ng had known his true identity long ago.
"I never readily trust anyone," Prince ng reiterated, "And you, even though you once had a relationship with the Fifth Sister, I remain cautious about it." As for other things, Prince ng didn’t need to say more, and Xiao Qingyao already understood.
Prince ng did not expose him because she wanted to see what he intended to do, observing the developnts silently.
Prince ng did not trust him, fearing soone was manipulating him, and instead of rashly acknowledging and startling the enemy, it was better to remain unchanged in the face of changes.
"Liang Zhichen ntioned a palace secret to , seemingly related to Pearl. He told before he left that perhaps, Your Highness could solve this puzzle for ."
Prince ng was stunned, "Liang Zhichen? He asked you to find ?"
Currently, Prince ng held Liang Zhichen in high regard, influenced partially by Ninth Sister Ji Jiuhuang. Additionally, this person was as cunning as a demon. He had only been in the Capital for half a month yet had already caused turmoil in the court. He sat steadily on the high platform, but now the happenings big and small in the Capital, even the reshuffling of power, were all inextricably linked to this person.
Moreover, Prince ng and the Ninth Princess had privately discussed this person, and the two of them believed that this person was a friend, not a foe. Due to Dong Huiying’s relations, he stood on their side, which was fortunate. Otherwise, if such a cunning person was in an opposing faction, they feared they would have endless troubles.
