Chapter 106: Chapter 106 Prince is Very Sick and Delicate 31
The sun had already set behind the western hills, leaving only the afterglow and the rosy clouds to accompany the end of daylight.
Shortly after, a Black-clothed Man emerged from behind the rockery and then quickly disappeared.
Following that, Su Yan slowly came out from behind the rockery, holding the hem of her dress.
The Pearl Earrings on her earlobes swayed with her movements.
Night fell, and there was no one around, only the occasional Maid passing by in the distance.
Xiao Hua spoke up,
"Host, the liaison has extended the deadline for stealing the booklet to one month, and also insists you accompany the Third Prince to the royal banquet in seven days. What does this mean?"
Su Yan strolled leisurely on the cobblestone path.
That booklet was really difficult to write, and most of her time was spent with Xuanyuan Yonghao, only managing to write in secret when he was not around.
In three days, she had only written a little bit.
The Black-clothed Man’s tone was indifferent, as if he knew the booklet was of great importance, not something a mere palace maid could easily touch. He was very serious in extending the deadline to a month and ordered her to attend the royal banquet in seven days.
She whispered with her head lowered,
"Being a spy is so troublesome."
Her pretty brows furrowed slightly.
Having to do this and that, and everything is mandatorily required.
Xiao Hua knew that her Host’s brain capacity was limited, and when there were too many things to think about, her head would start to ache, hence she understood the reason for her Host’s frustration.
The Pearl Earrings drew a graceful arc in mid-air and consoled,
"Host, don’t worry, you can take it one step at a time."
Su Yan rubbed her head and closed her eyes, almost instinctively reaching for the wallet tied around her waist.
She took out a piece of candy from it.
Yet, the originally smooth stone path beneath her feet had somehow developed an unexpected bump, causing Su Yan to stumble, dropping the piece of candy, which rolled away and landed on the dirt next to a tree.
The candy was still wrapped in wax paper, and after a moment’s pause, Su Yan stepped towards the milk candy.
Bending down to pick up the candy from the ground.
There was a small path in this area of the forest, a little secluded, so it was rarely chosen by passersby.
Yet at this moment, in the dead of night, the voices of two people conversing emerged from within.
One voice was gentle and refined,
"General Lin, returning triumphant after months on the battlefield, it is indeed cause for celebration."
Then a rugged, hearty voice followed,
"Prime Minister Zhao, there’s no need for such formalities between you and me. We’re just doing our duty, nothing more."
The refined voice chimed in again,
"Hahaha, indeed, General Lin sees things clearly."
Then, the rugged voice expressed confusion,
"What does the Third Prince mean by this? Why does he want me to refrain from telling the Emperor that it was Your Highness who conceived this plan? It would be a good opportunity to attract the Emperor’s attention!"
Prime Minister Zhao laughed,
"Perhaps the Third Prince simply does not want the Emperor to take notice."
"Ah, I’m just a blunt man, never mind, forget it, don’t tell me about the intricacies within."
As the two men talked, they walked along.
Su Yan stood beneath the big tree, holding the piece of candy, peeling off the wrapper and popping it into her mouth.
Prime Minister Zhao? General Lin?
Although her original self was but a Maid in the palace, she knew some of the widely known secrets at the front of the court.
For example... weren’t Prime Minister Zhao and General Lin known rivals, especially in the struggle over the heir to the throne? Prime Minister Zhao supported the Eldest Prince, while General Lin supported the Second Prince.
