Time travel, Your Highness Ninth Prince has been rejected from marriage again!

"You are finally back. If you don't come back, I will suspect that you have died at the border gate." Lu Xingci put his arm around Yan Siyuan's shoulders and joked as he walked.

Yan Siyuan replied: "If I die, will you be happy?".

Lu Xingci pointed at Yan Siyuan and complained, "Look, look, you can't even make a joke, it's so boring."

Lu Xingci couldn't wait to share the gossip, "I'm telling you, you're just too late and didn't see Miss Qing's verbal battle with the Chu family brothers and sisters. That mouth was so powerful."

Lu Xingci's words were so exciting that Qingyun changed into another person in his mouth.

Meng Zirou saw this scene not long after she came out of the toilet. It is wrong for a woman to meet her husband in private, but when she saw Yan Siyuan, she couldn't walk.

With auspicious eyes, erect brows, a high nose bridge, light pink thin lips, a black brocade robe with dark lines on the cuffs, and a height of more than eight feet, he looks like a fairy.

Meng Zirou was stunned. Yan Siyuan was the first to notice Meng Zirou and signaled Lu Xingci to shut up. Only then did Lu Xingci see Meng Zirou and made a gentlemanly salute, "Lu didn't know Miss Meng was here. It was too abrupt. I'll take my leave." After that, he pulled her away. Yan Siyuan wanted to leave.

At this time, Meng Zirou reacted and stepped forward to block the way of the two of them. She knelt down and saluted, "It should be my fault for offending Mr. Lu. I wonder who is next to Mr. Lu?".

It was obvious that Meng Zirou didn't want them to leave just like that. Lu Xingci was a little unhappy. When he was about to speak, he was stopped by Yan Siyuan.

"My name is Yan Siyuan." Yan Siyuan answered the question for Lu Xingci.

Meng Zirou was surprised. Although she had never met Yan Siyuan, she still knew that there was such a person. She didn't expect that he was back, and why there was no news at all. What I didn't expect was that he was so handsome.

Meng Zirou was slapping her little Jiujiu in her heart, but she didn't show it at all on the surface. She immediately knelt down and bowed, "My maid pays homage to His Highness Ninth Highness. I don't know His Highness's identity. If there is any inconvenience, I hope His Highness Ninth Prince will forgive you." The courtesy was thoughtful. It's exactly right, even Lu Xingci can't say anything.

Yan Siyuan said in a deep voice: "Get up."

Meng Zirou smiled gracefully and could not hide her joy, "When His Highness the Ninth Prince will return, I have no idea at all."

Yan Siyuan frowned, "Why should I tell you my whereabouts?"

Meng Zirou concealed her disappointment, "Don't you know, Your Highness? You and I are engaged. Your Highness and I were not yet born at that time, and it was the imperial concubine who married my mother's fingertips." Meng Zirou's smile became even brighter.

Lu Xingci was shocked. He didn't expect such a thing to happen. He had never heard anyone mention it. Lu Xingci looked at Yan Siyuan in shock, hoping that he could give him a negative answer.

Yan Siyuan lowered his head slightly, his eyes dimmed a bit, glanced at Lu Xingci, and said, "You go over first, I will be there soon."

Lu Xingci was stunned for a moment, and then left. He knew that the next words would not be something he could listen to.

Yan Siyuan looked back at Meng Zirou. Meng Zirou's smile did not change and she allowed Yan Siyuan to look at her. Yan Siyuan said, "I don't know about this. Did the imperial concubine exchange tokens with the Meng family?".

The imperial concubine was Yan Siyuan's biological mother, who died in childbirth.

Meng Zirou was asked, her eyes flashed slightly, "There should be some at my mother's place, but Zirou has never seen it."

Of course Yan Siyuan saw Meng Zirou's eyes, and his tone was slightly cold, "Then please ask Miss Meng to take it out and exchange the token back. This engagement will be voided."

Meng Zirou didn't expect that he would say this, and she no longer maintained her smile, her expression was confused: "How can the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers be discarded at the drop of a hat? His Highness the Ninth Prince should...".

Before Meng Zirou finished her words, she heard voices behind her. Yan Siyuan also turned around and looked around. He didn't find anything at first. After a while, he saw a woman running out with frivolous steps, and then another little maid chased after her. .

Yan Siyuan's eyebrows were raised, and his eyes were as dark as night, with a slight murderous aura. He hated eavesdroppers the most.

Of course Meng Zirou recognized Qingyun, but now is not the time to care about her. She wanted to continue to persuade Yan Siyuan, but Yan Siyuan did not give her this chance. He glanced sideways at her, and his dark eyes met hers Meng Zirou was so frightened that she could not speak.

"Miss Meng is smart and should be able to understand what I mean. I look forward to good news from Miss Meng." She turned and left without any intention of staying.

Meng Zirou returned to the banquet and before she understood what Yan Siyuan meant, she heard the news that Qingyun had fallen into the water. After that, the entire Fifth Princess Mansion was sealed off and no one was allowed to enter or exit.

The ladies and madams were full of complaints. Even the fifth princess was dissatisfied with the actions of the Prime Minister's Palace. She wanted to ask Qing Xiao for an argument, but Qing Xiao blocked her back by saying that this was His Majesty's order. The others had nothing to say.

And this order came from the Prime Minister who went to the Imperial Study Room to cry. He knelt in the royal study and refused to leave, saying that his daughter's life was miserable, that he was serving the country and the people while his own daughter was being bullied.

Emperor Yan had a headache from his crying. He really couldn't understand where a civil servant could shed so many tears, so he had to issue an order for a thorough investigation.

Only after finding out that it was related to Meng Zirou's return to Lin Ruochu did he let the others leave.

Because the Fifth Princess' Mansion was sealed, Yan Siyuan could not leave. Only then did everyone know that the Ninth Prince was back. Yan Siyuan, on the other hand, was even more fed up with Qingyun, who ruined his affairs and exposed him to the public prematurely.

Qing Xiao looked at the gloomy Yan Siyuan and raised his brows slightly, feeling quite gloating about his misfortune. However, Yan Siyuan ignored him and Qing Xiao didn't care either. He just felt unhappy with him for no reason.

The next step is to interrogate Meng Zirou and Lin Ruochu. Although they have guessed who is behind the scenes, there is still a process.

Meng Zirou didn't tell anything about talking to Yan Siyuan or seeing Qingyun. She just said that she got lost and walked for a while before coming back.

Lin Ruochu asked the fifth princess to go take a look because Qingyun hadn't come back for a long time. She looked around but couldn't find Qingyun, so she came back.

Lin Ruochu also realized at this time that the fifth princess wanted to use Qingyun to trick her into trouble.

Qing Xiao admired the two girls in front of him who were pretending to be calm, and said softly: "There are many torture instruments in Dali Temple. Do you want to try them?".

"We are all the daughters of courtiers, you cannot torture us," Meng Zirou retorted.

"So what, what if it is His Majesty's intention? Your Majesty has said that a thorough investigation will be carried out." Qing Xiao said the last two words very slowly.

Both of them trembled, Lin Ruochu turned pale and said, "I have a way to find evidence."

She didn't believe that Qing Xiao couldn't tell that this was the fifth princess's plan, but she just couldn't find any evidence.

Qing Xiao stared at Lin Ruochu with a dangerous expression. He didn't like the feeling of being seen through.

"Okay, I'll give you two hours. The guards are at your disposal. If I can't find any evidence, I'll take the blame on you."

After Qing Xiao left, Lin Ruochu felt that she could breathe. For a moment just now, she thought she was going to die, and she couldn't stop breaking out in cold sweat.
