"…" Shen Zhi Qiao's mouth twitched, he wanted to rip apart his mouth!

She did not correct him. After all, she brought him to this place which itself was suspicious. If he wanted to think like this, then he wouldn't lose two taels of meat.

She glanced at him, then walked forward.

Seeing her walk in front and grab a man and talk to him in a low voice, Ji Lianye thought that she really was thinking too much about men, and seeing how familiar she was with this place, he concluded that she must have been in and out of this place often, with a slight revulsion in her eyes and a sudden disappointment in her heart.

When he arrived at the entrance of the "Men's Prison", it wasn't hard to guess what the place was for just based on its superficial knowledge of the signboard. He just followed her because he was curious about why a woman would bring him here.

After Shen Zhi Qiao finished speaking to the man, he walked over to Ji Lian Ye with a smile on his face. "Aren't you curious about the Thirteenth Prince? This is the men's prison. "

As he spoke, he pointed upstairs, "I have specially prepared a good show for Thirteenth Prince. Thirteenth Prince, this way please."

With that, he walked away.

Ji Lian Ye gazed at her back for a long time. With a dark look in his eyes, he followed her.

After entering a spacious and luxurious room on the second floor, Shen Zhi Qiao had to make an excuse to stay away for a moment.

Ji Lian's lips hooked up into a devilish smile as she looked at her.

When she turned around to leave, a pair of beautiful starry eyes suddenly flashed with killing intent.

If she really did what he thought she would do, he would kill her. He would not allow the repeated exceptions in his life to be for such a thing.

After Shen Zhi Qiao walked out of his room, he met a man he had just met and led a variety of prison officers over.

When they passed by Shen Zhi Qiao, the leading man gave her an ambiguous smile, then led the group past her.

Shen Zhi Qiao stopped walking and looked at the room that Ji Lian Ye stayed in sideways. A hint of hesitation surfaced in her eyes.

No matter what, he was the Thirteenth Prince of the Western Lion Country, someone's guest. What she did … Was it suitable?!

But then she thought, if she didn't use this method to trap him, how could she find an excuse to get rid of him and go to the Prince Rui's estate to find out about Nan Yue?!

Thinking of this, the last bit of worry in his heart disappeared. He looked at the few prison officials who had entered the room and turned towards the door.

When she was walking out of the male prison, she noticed that the moment she walked in, she looked up to find a certain place. Finally, her gaze landed on the direction that Shen Zhiqiao had left in, her eyes were filled with fog.

After Shen Zhi Qiao walked out of the men's prison, he headed straight for the Rui Mansion.

When they arrived at the entrance of the Royal Palace, they saw Tuoba Rui carefully helping Ye Qingqing into the carriage, scaring her into hiding at the corner of a wall. If Tuoba Rui knew that she was coming, then it would be even harder for her to meet Nan Yue.

However, she did not want someone to know about her leaving the palace.

The sound of horse hooves splashing passed her ears. Shen Zhi Qiao turned her body to the side and hid her face in the shadows until the carriage passed by her. She heaved a sigh of relief and walked out from the corner towards the palace.

Just as she reached the door, before she could set foot on the stone steps, the attendants at the door all blocked her path.

"What's the matter with this girl?"

Shen Zhiqiao calmly raised his head and looked at the two of them with a smile, "I'm a friend of your princess, the two days ago I had an appointment to go to the Thousand Buddha Mountain to study Buddhism. However, I waited an entire morning but no princess came …"

Pausing for a moment, a hint of worry surfaced on his face, "To be honest, the princess has always kept her word, and has never broken my promise. So I'm worried that something might have happened to her? So I came to take a look! "

"To Thousand Blessings Mountain?" One of the attendants raised his doubts, "Our princess doesn't seem to be in the habit of attending buddhism training!"

When the two of them first came here to do this job, they had already thoroughly understood each house's owner's habits and habits. Shen Zhiqiao lowered his eyes as a smile appeared on his face. "I heard from Little Princess that both her sister-in-law and sister-in-law were pregnant, so I wanted to go to the Thousand Buddha Mountain and pray for their safety. Little Princess is really considerate!"

"Oh …" That's right! " Hearing her explanation, the two attendants no longer had any doubts and answered truthfully, "Lady, please return. The little princess has been grounded by our Prince. She definitely won't be able to go to the Thousand Blessings Mountain."

"…"

No wonder I haven't heard from her for the past two days …

Shen Zhi Qiao rolled her eyes, and carelessly used her hand to stroke her hair, "Then may I go in to see the little princess? Little Princess is the one who can't stand loneliness the most. Being grounded for the past few days is definitely very uncomfortable in her heart, don't suffocate her to death! "

The two attendants looked at each other, "My Lady, your highness has given the order a few days ago that unless he allows it, no one is to enter the manor!"

Shen Zhi Qiao knitted his brows, secretly pushing Tuoba Rui's stomach out of his mouth.

She then took out a pearl necklace from her pocket with a smile. Walking up the stairs, she secretly stuffed it into the hands of one of the servants. "The little princess is my daughter's best friend. I'm just worried about her, so I guarantee that I'll leave immediately after seeing her …"

The two servants seemed to be in a dilemma, but in the end, they still pushed the matter back into her hands, "Miss, please don't make things difficult for us brothers. The prince has said that if you let someone you shouldn't have let in, there would only be one left, death!"

"Only you two know about this, and I just saw the prince's carriage leaving, so he shouldn't be in the mansion. I promise that as long as I finish looking at the carriage, I will leave immediately and will not cause any trouble for the both of you!" As he spoke, he took out an emerald jade bracelet and put it back together with the pearl necklace.

The jade bracelet was sparkling and translucent. From a glance, one could tell that it was quite valuable.

The two attendants swallowed their saliva as golden light flickered in their eyes. One of the attendants glanced at Shen Zhi Qiao before pulling the other attendants to a corner and began discussing in a low voice.

Shen Qiao was anxious, but on the surface, she tried her best to remain calm.

After a while, the two servants seemed to have come to an agreement as they walked towards Shen Zhiqiao.

Shen Zhi Qiao looked at the two with a faint smile, his hand slightly tightening his sleeve.

"Miss, today is the birthday of the side princess. The prince specially brought the side princess out to celebrate. I think it'll be quite some time before she'll return, so Miss should hurry." One of the attendants said and kept looking around, turning his body to let Shen Zhiqiao pass.

Shen Zhi Qiao smiled at him gratefully. With happiness in his eyes that could not be hidden, he quickly walked in.

The two attendants watched her back as she left, their palms sweating.

Looking at the treasures in his hands, he couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement. Any one of these items was enough for the two of them to live for a lifetime. His father, who had failed to do business in his family's previous life, had owed him a lot of debts. In the end, because he could not bear the debt anymore, he committed suicide on the beam of his own room.

In the early years of her life, in order to nurture the two brothers and the people who ran away from her, she had no fixed place to live all year round, and the old mother only had two pieces of worn simple clothing all year round. In the summer and spring, she could barely live on, and the autumn and winter were also single clothing.

It wasn't until recently when the two brothers were introduced to the Mansion Guard that the days when Wu Mi cooked in the pot eased a little. However, after paying his debts every month, there was still no money left to settle the debts for his old mother.

Now that they had these two things in their hands, as long as they used them as a pawnbroker, they could pay off their debts and purchase some decent winter clothes for their old mother. With the rest of their money, they could buy a few acres of fertile land and marry and have children.

Thinking about it this way, he felt that this desperate move was worth it.

The two of them were brothers, so they thought of the same thing. They looked at each other and smiled, as if they were thinking of the beautiful days they would live in peace.
