Chapter 148 Eavesdropping

"Even you are helping her?" Princess Lan Xiang pursed her lips, looking dissatisfied.

She thought the young master's sister could stand on her side, but she didn't expect-

Cheng Xin said: "I am helping the care of my parents or not. The fifth princess, Delis is indeed the first thing she sees in this dress. Since you are willing to experience the lives of the people, you might as well abide by the rules."

She approached Princess Lanxiang and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Fifth Princess, your every move represents the royal decency. If you act like this today, so many noble girls here will probably compete to be similar, and if they spread it, they will become princesses. But if you are proud of your hands today, then these noble girls will be proud of being princesses and regard you as an example."

Princess Lanxiang stared at Cheng Xin for a long time, as if thinking about the feasibility of her words.

Seeing that he was not speaking for a long time, Cheng Xin pulled her hand and led her toward a piece of clothing on the side.

"I think the princess's skin is fair and delicate. With this red one, it must be dignified and generous, bright and charming."

Princess Lanxiang stared at the dress: "Really?"

"If the princess doesn't believe it, why not give it a try?" Cheng Xin asked Manager Feng, who was beside him, to take off his clothes.

Princess Lanxiang turned her head and glanced at Delis. She didn't say anything and entered the inner room. She changed her clothes soon after. As Cheng Xin said, she put on a red dress, which made her skin look like snow, and brought her advantages to the extreme.

The girls around were all exclaiming.

Delis was still smiling: "It's better to be beauties in the capital. Any kind of clothes can become better when they come to them."

Seeing everyone's reaction, Princess Lan Xiang was in a good mood: "It looks like this, the one you are not very good on you."

Delis smiled happily: "That's right, Manager Feng, I'll buy this one."

Delis went to change her clothes and paid the money. Cheng Xin greeted Princess Lanxiang and took her away quickly with Jinxiang Tower.

...

On the carriage, Delis saw Cheng Xin frowning, thinking that she was still worried about the previous incident.

Delis said, "Actually, it doesn't matter. She is a princess. Even if she arrests me, she just wants to embarrass me."

She used to encounter such things in Shu, and many noble girls always had trouble seeing her. Later, she realized that it was because her beauty was aggressive, which made the woman feel uncomfortable.

Over time, she can calmly deal with such things.

Cheng Xin raised her eyes and said, "Not that. I'm just curious about her attitude towards you today."

"What's wrong?"

"Before this, she shouldn't know you. Even if she has heard of your reputation, she shouldn't have the attitude just now... I mean, as a princess, she is considered to be a beauty that she has seen countless beauty and will not be so easily jealous of your beauty."

She was hostile to Delis, and Cheng Xin could tell from the first sentence.

Delis didn't care: "So what, I came from Shu, and she is a princess. I have a low status, so it's normal for her to look down on me."

Cheng Xin shook her head. Although she had not had much interaction with the fifth princess, she had heard from the young master and the second prince that she was a well-educated prince with her own opinions. She had never bullied others as much as she is today.

Of course, she couldn't figure out what misunderstandings were there for a while.

"Don't think about it, take me to have something delicious." Delis simply put these things behind her, lifted the curtain of the car, and looked at the shops along the way.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Xin looked out and said, "We have left Xuanwu Street. There is a beef noodle restaurant nearest here. The owner is from you Shu."

"Really?" Delis said happily: "All the way to the capital, I ate white rice every day, and I have long wanted to eat noodles."

"Then let's go, maybe it will smell like your hometown."

Delis focused her head when she heard this. When she put down the curtain, Cheng Xin caught a familiar back and immediately reached out to lift the curtain again.

The man turned into an alley on the street.

"Yu Bo, park."

The carriage stopped immediately.

Cheng Xin took Meitian off the carriage and said to Delis: "I'll ask Yu Bo and Wenqi to take you to the noodle shop first, and I'll come later."

Delis nodded: "Okay."

"Miss, be careful," Wenqi said in the carriage.

The next moment, Cheng Xin and Mei Ran turned into the alley.

The person she saw just now was Mr. An. Although he was a free man and went wherever he went, Cheng Xin subconsciously wanted to come and have a look.

Because there are too many mysteries in Mr. An, it attracts her to solve them.

The alley is straight, and the figure disappears at the entrance of a yard.

Cheng Xin and Mei Ran followed outside the yard. Mei Ran stepped forward, looked closer to the crack in the door, and then shook his head at Cheng Xin.

Cheng Xin stared at the courtyard gate and frowned.

Mei Ran walked down and whispered: "Miss, come with me."

Soon, Mei Ran took Cheng Xin and climbed onto the roof of the back of the yard.

Cheng Xin looked back at the ground far away and swallowed silently. This was the first time she climbed so high.

Mei Ran reached out to hold Cheng Xin's shoulder and signaled her to rest assured.

Cheng Xin nodded, carefully moved the roof tiles below, and slowly came down to check.

"Mr. An did a great job this time. This is the money he promised to give to Mr. An before." The speaker's voice was sharp, and Cheng Xin seemed to have heard it somewhere.

A man walked out of the inner room, followed by Mr. An.

Cheng Xin stared at the former for a long time and suddenly remembered who he was.

The inner official who served by the former prince was called...

By the way, it’s called Fulu!

How could he be here?

Logically speaking, the third prince was deposed and imprisoned in the sect's mansion. All the inner officials and palace maids around him would be dealt with, especially those who were confidants like Fulu, who would not be executed, should be imprisoned in the sect's mansion and continue to take care of the third prince's daily life.

But he can actually go in and out in casual clothes?

Cheng Xin suppressed countless doubts and continued to peek.

Mr. An opened the wooden box on the table, revealing the full amount of silver. He glanced at it and locked it up.

"Mr. An, don't count?"

"Since it's sincere cooperation, An believes that his father-in-law will not even refuse to pay out this little money."

Fu Lu chuckled: "What Mr. An said is exactly. Now the third prince is no longer able to make a comeback. I wonder if Mr. An intends to support the eldest prince to the throne?"

"My father-in-law is too proud of An. An is just a martial artist and is not interested in the battle against imperial power."

"That's a pity. You should know that the one who is most likely to reach this position now is the eldest prince. If he can get Mr. An's help, it will be a good thing in the future, whether it is for Mr. An himself or the people in Shu who are willing to come to the capital with his life with his husband."

Mr. An did not comment and picked up the wooden box and stood up: "An came here today just to settle the previous matter. As for what my father-in-law said, An pretended that he had never heard of it."
