When they got the news, Chu Huanyan and Xiao Jinzhi happened to go out to enjoy the lanterns.

After sending someone to confirm the location of Princess Rongchang, they had an "accidental encounter."

"Your Highness, what a coincidence." Chu Huanyan smiled and saluted, but looked past Princess Rongchang and glanced at the people behind her calmly.

Princess Rongchang did not expect to meet Chu Huanyan. She frowned at first and then snorted coldly.

"It's indeed a coincidence. You two are also here to enjoy the lanterns?"

"Today is the Lantern Festival, so I naturally want to go out with Yan Yan for a walk." Xiao Jinzhi raised his eyebrows and spoke.

The colorful lanterns illuminated Xiao Jinzhi's peach blossom eyes even more alluringly. Standing next to Chu Huanyan, the two were incomparably matched.

Princess Rongchang was in a very good mood today and did not intend to embarrass Chu Huanyan and the others. She just responded casually and planned to leave.

"Are you planning to find Lin Zeyuan? It seems you really love him." Xiao Jinzhi said with a smile.

Princess Rongchang glanced at Xiao Jin again, "This has nothing to do with the prince."

"Of course it doesn't matter, Auntie is free." Xiao Jinzhi shook his head, "By the way, there are many people at this lantern festival, and I just happened to see Lin Zeyuan going to the west. Auntie can go there to look for her, so as not to go the wrong way."

"Have you seen Lin Zeyuan?" Princess Rongchang frowned.

Didn't Lin Zeyuan say he wasn't feeling well and stay at home?

"Although this street is big, it's nothing unusual to meet you, just like we also met our aunt." Xiao Jinzhi shrugged relaxedly and said nonchalantly, "Gu and Yanyan have to go to enjoy the lanterns, so we won't accompany our aunt. There’s more to say. I saw Lin Zeyuan walking in a hurry just now, maybe he’s also looking for his aunt, so you’d better go quickly.”

With that said, Xiao Jinzhi held Chu Huanyan's hand and led her towards the way Princess Rongchang and the others came.

Princess Rongchang frowned, and after a moment, she gave instructions to the boy.

"Go to the mansion immediately to see if Lin Zeyuan is at home."

"Yes." The boy quickly accepted the order.

After touching a stick of incense, the waiter called back and said that he had gone to the room and had a look. Although the door was closed, there was no one inside.

"If he's not at home, then where did he go?" Princess Rongchang frowned in confusion.

"Princess..." The boy hesitated to speak and looked at her.

"Just say whatever you want."

"Yes." The boy responded and said quickly, "Princess, Mr. Lin seems to go out a lot these days. I have bumped into him two or three times."

"really?"

"Seriously, I don't dare to talk nonsense, and judging from Mr. Lin's appearance, he seems to be a little secretive and doesn't know what to do when he goes out." The boy lowered his head and reported.

Princess Rongchang was silent for a moment, and her face darkened.

What on earth was Lin Zeyuan hiding from her?

"From now on, I, Princess, keep an eye on Lin Zeyuan. If he goes out again, report him immediately, and be sure to send someone to keep an eye on him to see where he goes."

After saying that, Princess Rongchang looked at the faces behind her, "None of you are allowed to leak the news. If I let this princess know who sent him the message... you will know the consequences!"

"Yes." Several faces responded quickly.

Because of Lin Zeyuan's incident, Princess Rongchang was not in the mood to enjoy the lanterns, and quickly took her people back home.

Chu Huanyan and Xiao Jinzhi hid in the dark, watching them leave the street.

"It seems we're not completely sure yet." Chu Huanyan said in a low voice.

"It doesn't matter." Xiao Jinzhi also whispered, "Wait for the next opportunity."

That night, Lin Zeyuan didn't return to the princess mansion until late at night. He was still a little nervous at first, but when he saw the reactions of Princess Rongchang and others the next day, he didn't seem to notice, and he suddenly became bolder.

Just two days later, he found another reason and left the princess mansion.

"Brother Yuan."

In the small courtyard, Yue Yiyi felt proud as she looked at Lin Zeyuan who had come again.

After these few times, she could basically start to gradually control Lin Zeyuan. Although the other party still made sarcastic remarks and humiliated her at every turn, he was quite generous with money.

Thanks to Lin Zeyuan, Yue Yiyi had a small amount of savings. Now she just wanted to coax Lin Zeyuan, find an opportunity to make a big fortune from him, and then run away with the money.

"Do you miss me?" Lin Zeyuan put his arms around Yue Yiyi, hugging her and sitting on his lap.

"Of course I have." Yue Yiyi said while teasing Lin Zeyuan, her movements more unrestrained than before.

"Brother Yuan, you have to be careful and don't let Princess Rongchang find out." Yue Yiyi said with a worried look on her face.

"Don't worry, that old woman won't find out." Lin Zeyuan said with a cold hum.

Yue Yiyi laughed a few times and said in a charming tone: "If Princess Rongchang knew that you were calling her an old woman behind her back, I don't know how angry she would be."

"As long as you don't tell, who can know." Lin Zeyuan unbuttoned his dress and said disgustedly, "That old woman, if she didn't have the status of a princess, who would stay by her side? It makes me sick to think about her age. "

"Brother Yuan is right, she is not worthy of you." Yue Yiyi coaxed her coaxingly, "Brother Yuan, you are really wronged, please let Yiyi serve you well..."

Before Yue Yiyi finished speaking, the door was suddenly kicked open.

Yue Yiyi was startled and hurriedly pulled her clothes to cover herself.

When Lin Zeyuan saw the person clearly, his expression suddenly changed.

"Princess, princess..." He stood up quickly and pushed Yue Yiyi away, "Princess, don't get me wrong, I have nothing to do with her, she..."

"Old woman?" Rongchang stared at Lin Zeyuan with a gloomy face, "Lin Zeyuan, this princess looks down on you. You are really brave."

The blood in Lin Zeyuan's body solidified at this moment. He heard it, heard it all...

"Princess, have mercy on me, princess, have mercy on me. I was just having fun with her and talking nonsense. That's not what I thought at all in my heart!" Lin Zeyuan knelt down with a plop and desperately began to beg for mercy, "Princess, I am sincere to you. ,I……"

"You are raising another woman here with my princess' money. How dare you say anything sincere?" Princess Rongchang sneered and glanced at the guards beside her. Two of them immediately stepped forward and grabbed Lin Zeyuan. .

"Princess, I really realized my mistake. I was just obsessed for a moment. Please give me another chance!" Lin Zeyuan tried his best to get rid of the two of them, threw himself at Princess Rongchang's feet, and hugged her legs, " Princess, for the sake of serving you during this period, please spare me."

Princess Rongchang kicked Lin Zeyuan away, "Go away, don't dirty my princess's dress."

It's a pity that she favored Lin Zeyuan so much before and even helped him deal with Chu Huanyan, but then she changed her face and dared to hook up with others. Looking at it like this, she might have had secret meetings countless times. besides……

old woman!

Ah!

Princess Rongchang took out the saber of the guard behind her and put it on Lin Zeyuan's neck.
