Shuang'er still felt it was not good, but unfortunately He Qianwei was very insistent, so she had no choice but to let her go.
Han Caiwei was stunned as soon as she came out, and didn't know where the third prince lived. After wandering around this courtyard for a while, she found that it wasn't big either, with only four courtyards in the east, south, west, and north. She lived in the north, and had just turned to the east courtyard when she saw lights on inside, and Ah Fu was standing alone outside the corridor guarding it.
A Fu raised his eyes and happened to see Han Caiwei, so he came over to greet her: "Mrs. Han is well, is the lady looking for Prince Wang?"
"Hmm!" Han Caiwei nodded and then looked around the room, "Wang Ye...haven't slept yet?"
A Fu smiled: "Mrs. Han's arrival is inopportune, I was just about to go to bed!"
Han Caiwei took another peek, and the room was completely quiet. She raised her eyes again to see Ah Fu's distant and cold expression, and she understood two or three parts of it in her heart. At this time, she blinked her eyes, taking advantage of Ah Fu's distraction, and began to shout: "Third King, I have something to ask you, if you're not sleeping, let's talk!"
"Mrs. Han you——" Ah Fu's face changed color, and he didn't have time to take care of Han Caiwei, directly lifting the curtain and entering the house.
Han Caiwei stood outside with her arms crossed for a moment before seeing Ah Fu come out from inside: "Madam Han, the prince invites you in."
Han Caiwei slightly curled her lip and glanced at Ah Fu with a fake smile: "Trouble you to pass on the message." After that, she didn't bother with him anymore and directly pushed open the curtain and went in herself.
She was stunned as soon as she entered, the Pan family member who had beaten her in the ancestral hall was standing next to Li Xiuzhen, and the maid Xiaolian who had also hit her was also serving beside them. As soon as Han Caiwei swept a glance over, she saw the warning gaze of Pan's family member, and even the maid beside him was staring at her!
Han Caiwei's heart surged with a wicked fire. What was this Pang Shi and that maid? They didn't even mention the beating before, but now they dared to glare at her like that. Did they really think she was easy to bully?! And to make matters worse, they were the first to tattle, although she didn't care what the Third Prince thought of her. But if he got a bad impression of her because of this incident, it would be even harder for her to acknowledge Little Beauty in the future!
She thought of this, her eyes rolled a few times, and a sweet smile hung on her face. She raised her eyes to look at Li Xiuzhen: "Your Highness, your sister is also tired from a day's work, how can she still serve Your Highness? Why not let me do it instead? I haven't seen Your Highness for several years, and I really miss you, I don't know if Your Highness will allow me to?"
Li Xiuzhen put down the teacup in his hand, raised his eyes to look at her lightly, and then lowered his eyelids without saying a word.
Han Caiwei saw that Pang Shi's face had changed again, and Li Xiuzhen didn't stop her from speaking, so she smiled to herself and looked at Pang Shi with a sweet smile: "Sister Pang, you taught me in the ancestral hall before, I haven't forgotten a single word! Oh, and there was another lesson, I've been remembering it all along too! Look," Han Caiwei pointed to her forehead and still slightly swollen cheek, smiling sweetly, "just for this, shouldn't Sister also let me have my way once? Otherwise, who knows what others will say about Sister? Sister is a virtuous and gentle person, you wouldn't not understand the teachings of being a wife and servant in the ancestral hall, would you?"
She was taken aback, never expecting that the soft and weak concubine she used to bully would have such a sharp tongue, and her words left her speechless. It wasn't until Xiaolian lightly bumped her arm that she came back to her senses, hurriedly laughing: "Actually, there's no need for sister to trouble herself, isn't it true that sister has never been willing to get close to the king? And besides, it's already been several years since we've been here, and now that the king has finally come, sister is acting so clingy. If this gets out, who knows what people outside will say?"
These words were sharp and pierced Han Caiwei's heart, she was so angry that her teeth itched, and for a moment, she didn't know how to respond. Just then, Li Xiuzhen raised his hand and said in a calm voice, "Yulan, you go back first."
"Your Highness, could it be her—"
"The king has spoken, you may withdraw."
Pan was helpless and glared at Han Caiwei with a scowl, then stormed off with Xiaolian in a huff.
Guys, collect and comment more, haha ~
