If so, that would be too perfect!
More perfect than sleeping with him!
Why didn't I think of that just now?
Fortunately, I thought of it now, it's not too late!
Meng Xiao was stunned. He liked men?
Seeing Meng Xiao's startled look, Qin Yiqing thought he was panicked because his secret was known. She winked playfully at Meng Xiao, "It's okay, don't be nervous. I've seen a lot in the martial world, I've seen everything. It's normal. Why must men like women, and women like men? I understand you."
Moreover, Qin Yiqing showed a look of extreme understanding, especially understanding, more understanding than you could imagine.
Meng Xiao's mouth twitched, "I'm not..."
"Don't worry, I'm the best at keeping secrets! I want to talk to you about something, something that will benefit both of us!" Qin Yiqing's eyes sparkled like stars.
It could be seen that she was hatching a mischievous idea.
Meng Xiao swallowed back the words of explanation, which finally turned into a simple "Okay."
...
The next day.
Just after breakfast.
A piece of news spread from the palace.
The annual hunt would be held at the Royal Northern Garden.
Almost all the dignitaries in the capital were invited.
When the news broke, everyone was somewhat surprised. Although it was an annual event, it had hardly been held in the past two years. It had been almost three years, right?
And now suddenly they said it was going to be held again this year?
Confused and surprised, everyone suddenly understood why.
It was probably because of Prince Jin.
Prince Jin had just appeared in public this year, and it was necessary for people to know about Prince Jin's prowess. This was an opportunity for the Emperor to prove Prince Jin's capabilities to the world.
The date was set for three days later.
At the same time, on the second floor of Yueran Teahouse.
Yun Yueyin, who had been waiting in the teahouse for more than half an hour, finally met the person she had been wanting to see for the past two days.
"General."
Li De glanced at Yun Yueyin with a grim expression, then nodded slightly, "Mm."
After Li De sat down, Yun Yueyin eagerly pressed, "General, I saw Prince Jin at Prince Pingyang's mansion. But Prince Jin is clearly Prince Ye! How did Prince Ye become Prince Jin? Moreover, my identity is special at Prince Pingyang's mansion, and Dongning people must not know about it, otherwise, it will ruin your plans."
Yun Yueyin found that Li De's expression did not change after she finished speaking, and he didn't seem to think the matter was worth being nervous about.
"Regarding Prince Jin, it's best if you pretend to know nothing. If even a sliver of information about Prince Jin is leaked, you know the consequences. As for your identity, don't worry, Prince Jin will not expose your true identity even if he sees you. Put your mind at ease. Do what you should do. As for Yueran Teahouse, you should not come here again unless it is important."
After speaking, Li De got up.
Yun Yueyin was actually very shocked. Prince Ye wouldn't expose her identity? Or was Prince Jin not Prince Ye? Or was there some secret hidden within?
Of course, she couldn't question Li De further, and since Li De said it was alright, then it was alright.
However...
"I'll probably have to go with Zhen Xu to the hunt in three days. Can I go?" Yun Yueyin cautiously asked Li De.
She really wanted to go to this kind of opportunity where the dignitaries of the capital could recognize her. But she was afraid of encountering Prince Ye and being recognized by him before. However, given the current situation, it seemed there was no need to worry about that.
Li De's sharp gaze swept over Yun Yueyin.
Yun Yueyin was flustered by his gaze and quickly lowered her head.
"You may go," Li De said two words and left.
After Li De left, Yun Yueyin finally let out a long sigh of relief.
She understood very well that every step she took in the capital of Xixia was a step she had to take cautiously, as she still had to act according to Li De's wishes.
She also knew that if she made a wrong move, Li De would not spare her life!
There were not few pawns like her for Li De.
But, she couldn't help but wonder why Li De said Prince Ye wouldn't recognize her?
Was it really Prince Ye?
Are there really two people so alike in this world?
Yun Yueyin was puzzled for a moment.
But she still knew that she couldn't stay in Yueran Teahouse any longer. She had to go back and prepare, as she would have to stay overnight for the hunt.
She would slowly investigate the rest when she returned.
She would eventually find out the secrets she wanted to know!
When she got up to leave, she suddenly thought of something!
Her memory had been getting worse lately. How could she have forgotten to tell Li De that Princess Ningde had threatened her? She didn't know if Princess Ningde would do anything unwise afterward!
Never mind, there was no rush. She would tell Li De next time they met.
...
Prince Pingyang's Mansion.
After Zhen Lin drank his medicine, he learned about the upcoming hunt.
He hadn't planned to go at first.
But Ning De came and persuaded him to go, saying that this time he could let the people of the capital know that he was no longer a sickly person.
Zhen Lin had been able to ride a horse for the past two days. Although he was a bit stiff, he would become proficient after practicing for one or two more days.
"Miss Ning said this is a critical period, and no mistakes can be made. It's just a hunt, and there will be opportunities to participate in the future." Zhen Lin thought about it and refused.
If any accident happened during the hunt, he and Miss Ning would not be able to account for it.
Ning De's eyes lit up upon hearing this.
Her brother truly cared about Ning Ruan.
Since that was the case, she definitely couldn't miss this opportunity.
Ning De's eyes flickered, and she smiled, "Brother, we can bring Miss Ning along. As long as Miss Ning is there, any situation can be handled. Besides, this is a royal hunt, and Miss Ning might be interested too."
"This..." Zhen Lin hesitated.
He did want to go.
If Miss Ning went with him, then all his worries would disappear.
"I'll go talk to Miss Ning. Leave this to me, Brother. You don't need to worry too much." Ning De had already made her plans.
After finishing with Zhen Lin, she went to find Yun Shu.
Yun Shu was reading a book.
She had brought a vulgar and melodramatic novel with her, but it was so good that she was engrossed. Just then, Princess Ning De arrived.
After hearing Ning De's intentions, Yun Shu's heart stirred.
A royal hunt?
Zhan Tian Ye would also be there.
Seeing Yun Shu fall silent, Ning De feared rejection and said, "If Miss Ning doesn't go, my brother is hesitant to take the risk. After all, it's outside the capital, and there are many people and complex circumstances, so I fear something might happen. However, this hunt is held after a three-year interval, and my brother needs this opportunity to prove himself to the world."
"Miss Ning, please don't make things difficult," Zhen Lin's voice suddenly came from the doorway.
Zhen Lin had thought it over and didn't want to burden Miss Ning with his affairs, so he rushed over immediately.
