414 Laughter
Baili tried his best to recall, but he couldn’t remember where he had seen it before.
Seeing that Baili was distracted, Ning Yue called out to him, “Baili, what are you doing?”
Baili came back to his senses. If he couldn’t figure it out, he couldn’t be bothered to think about it anymore. “What can I do for you, Your Highness?”
Ning Yue threw a small notebook to Baili. “Go and give this to Lord Futai. Lord Futai is upright. I believe he will definitely maximize the use of this material.”
“Baili, you have to remember this. It can only be handed to Lord Futai. It can’t be leaked, understand?” Ning Yue instructed solemnly.
Baili nodded solemnly. “I understand. I’ll definitely follow your instructions, princess.”
Actually, Lord Futai could have been promoted five years ago, but he was blocked by the He family five years ago.
Stopping people from being promoted and getting rich was also unforgivable.
Therefore, Lord Futai hated the He family to the core.
Ning Yue felt that this was an opportunity for Lord Futai.
If Lord Futai could take this opportunity to bring down the He family, his chances of rising up would be even higher.
“Also, be careful not to expose your identity, lest you cause trouble,” Ning Yue instructed Baili.
Baili quickly agreed. “Princess, don’t worry. I’ll definitely complete the mission.”
Due to the sleeping powder, the entire He family did not wake up until the next morning.
The crown prince felt that something was wrong. Lord He almost always opposed him and wished he could replace him.
Why was someone who would never be absent from court suddenly absent?
The crown prince felt that something was wrong. He thought for a moment and planned to send someone to the He family to check on the situation first. This way, he could show his benevolence. With this thought, the crown prince immediately sent someone to carry it out.
In the end, the imperial guards who returned said that the He Residence had been robbed!
“Why was it robbed for no reason? According to your description, this thief is too powerful. He didn’t even let go of the tiles.” While the Crown Prince was shocked, he recalled the incident between the General’s Residence and the Marquis of An’s Residence. Hadn’t these two residences been robbed?
Could it be that the thief had attacked again? Was he planning to give them a warning?
“Call Lord He over. I want to ask him what’s going on.” The crown prince instructed his imperial guards.
No matter what, he had to find the main person and ask about the situation.
However, the He family’s outcome made the crown prince feel very happy. If not for the fact that the occasion was not right, the crown prince would have laughed out loud.
In order for his younger brother to return to the palace and even replace him as the crown prince, Lord He had caused him a lot of trouble.
Soon, the imperial guards brought Lord He to the crown prince. However, not only did they bring Lord He, but they also brought back a eunuch from Consort Mei’s palace.
The crown prince was a little stunned. What was going on? Why was the eunuch from Consort Mei’s palace being carried here naked with He Shun?
What happened between the two of them?
The crown prince got someone to splash cold water on them, waking them up.
When they were awake, they looked confused. When they saw the bright clothes in front of them, they were so frightened that they fell to the ground.
At this moment, they felt a chill run down their spines. They looked down and realized that they were actually naked!
Whether it was He Shun or the eunuch, their faces were red. Now, they did not even dare to look up.
“What’s going on with you guys?” the crown prince asked.
He Shun and the eunuch looked at each other. Both of them saw that each other was naked. Thinking back to how they were chatting just now and suddenly fainted, someone must have done it on purpose!
Without thinking, He Shun complained to the crown prince, “Your Highness, please make a decision! I don’t know who schemed against me!”
The crown prince raised his eyebrows. Did he look like the kind of person who would repay evil with kindness? He would not help He Shun investigate.
However, he had to do his best. The crown prince suppressed his laughter and said to He Shun, “I’ll definitely investigate thoroughly. I’ll get the minister of justice to investigate this case immediately. I won’t let any bad people off!” With that, the crown prince turned around and left without giving He Shun a chance to react.
