The soft beauty is so good at teasing, the villain prince asks for a kiss
Chapter 62: The Difficult Scholar
"Hey - you're leaving now? Sir Liang - Liang Tanhua? Liang Changjin!"
Rong Heqing called out a few times, but Liang Changjin didn't even turn his head. He just raised his hand and waved, then walked into the endless night and disappeared at the end of the path.
She laughed out of anger, but her smile slowly faded away when she looked at his lonely back.
This person was just as difficult as she expected.
She tapped the folding fan on her palm, as if thinking about something.
Seeing a faint light coming up in the quaint old house at the end, she took a deep look, then turned and left.
When she reached the long street, she just happened to see Chu Suifeng who came back to look for her.
"Has the person been sent to Yundu Mansion?"
Chu Suifeng's breathing was a little rapid, and he nodded, "It has been sent. The Yundu prefect has taken over it personally. He will definitely investigate it thoroughly and send a letter to the palace when the time comes."
"Didn't you find out before that he had enemies? What's going on tonight?"
Rong Heqing asked curiously, "Could it be that a new grudge was made in the past few days?"
Chu Suifeng said with a stern face: "I will continue to investigate."
"There's no rush for this matter. Just accompany me somewhere first."
"where to?"
Rong Heqing took out the jade pendant Qin Yunxian had given her from her purse, smiled and said, "Help me."
*
Ruyi Tower is one of the largest restaurants in Yundu. The decoration inside is very elegant, but the prices of wine and food are very reasonable. Therefore, not only wealthy businessmen and dignitaries are willing to come here, but also literati and poets are frequent visitors here.
The building is especially lively at night, with bright lights and a lot of noise.
As Rong Heqing and Chu Suifeng entered the room, a waiter came up to them quickly, smiling and greeting them warmly: "Please come in, gentlemen. Did you book a private room in advance or just sit down?"
Rong Heqing retracted his gaze and asked, "Is your shopkeeper Zhou here?"
The waiter was startled, his face slightly changed color, he looked up and down at Rong Heqing, then looked at Chu Suifeng, and asked hesitantly: "I wonder what the young lady wants to see Shopkeeper Zhou for?"
Rong Heqing hooked the tassel of the jade pendant with her fingers and showed it to him, "Show this to Shopkeeper Zhou, he will understand."
The waiter rolled his eyes and laughed, "Then the two guests, please take a seat in the private room upstairs. I'll be right back!"
Rong Heqing and Chu Suifeng had been sitting in the private room for less than a quarter of an hour when the waiter hurried back with the jade pendant, followed by a thin man with a goatee.
The man immediately bowed when he saw them, "Excuse me, sorry to have kept you waiting for so long!"
The waiter also apologized repeatedly, "This is our Ruyi Tower's shopkeeper Zhou. If the princess has anything to say, just tell her. I will go out and watch!"
"No problem." Rong Heqing said, "I just came here to ask Shopkeeper Zhou to help me pass a message to the prince."
Shopkeeper Zhou said: "Princess, please speak——"
Rong Heqing waved and waited for him to come closer. Rong Heqing said a few words. Manager Zhou looked puzzled, but he didn't say much. He nodded and said, "I will send someone to deliver a letter to the palace. If the prince gives a reply, I will send someone to inform the princess as soon as possible."
"Okay, thank you, Manager Zhou."
Rong Heqing wanted to pay him, but Shopkeeper Zhou refused, "Princess, there is no need to do this. The prince has sent someone to tell you that the jade pendant was given to you. If you or someone from the Annan Palace brings the jade pendant to you in the future, and if the prince comes in person, we will help you."
He smiled and said, "So if you need anything, just come to me."
Rong Heqing was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Qin Yunxian to say this.
Is he a nice person?

Coming out of Ruyi Tower, Rong Heqing smelled a fragrance and his stomach growled.
Chu Suifeng glanced at her and asked, "Are you hungry?"
Rong Heqing nodded, turned around and saw a wonton vendor on the roadside, so he simply found a clean table and sat down, and asked Chu Suifeng: "You haven't eaten either? Wontons or noodles?"
Chu Suifeng: "I don't care. Anything is fine."
"Then let's eat wontons." Rong Heqing called the waiter and ordered two bowls of wontons with thin skin and large fillings.
The lights hanging on the doors of the shops on both sides cast light, illuminating a pot of white steam. The wontons in the boiling water kept rolling like white fish, which made Rong Heqing's appetite very excited.
The night wind in Yundu in early autumn was cool. The white mist was blown away in a short while, carrying the aroma of wontons into the noses of passers-by, making people unable to help but look over here.
"The delicious and big wontons are here~" the waiter shouted, and walked quickly with two large bowls in his hands. He came to Rongheqing's table in two or three steps, put down the large bowl, and took two small bowls and chopsticks and spoons. He rubbed his hands and said, "My two guests, please enjoy your meal."
Rong Heqing put her chopsticks aside, picked up the soup and wontons with a spoon, blew on them, and took a bite. The delicious soup spread between her lips and teeth. She ate one and couldn't help but sighed, "Delicious!"
Chu Suifeng had no idea what to eat, but seeing how deliciously she ate it, he began to look forward to it. He scooped one and ate it. He didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but he also thought it was delicious.
He just watched Rong He Qing eat as if she were his meal.
Rong Heqing felt helpless after being looked at, and tapped the table twice with his fingers, "Do you think I can eat enough?"
Chu Suifeng shook his head, "You seem to be enjoying the meal."
Rong Heqing: "..."
She glanced at him with a helpless look, scooped up a spoonful of soup and started drinking it.
When she finished drinking, she saw Chu Suifeng looking at her thoughtfully, "You are a princess, you have eaten all kinds of delicacies, how come you eat wontons so deliciously?"
Rong Heqing paused, drank the soup in the spoon slowly, wiped his lips with a handkerchief, exhaled slowly, shook his index finger and said: "You don't understand, when people are alive, only delicious food and true love are not to be wasted. I love delicacies from land and sea, but it doesn't prevent me from liking street snacks. They all have their own merits. When you are tired of eating big fish and meat, occasionally having a bowl of wontons will make you feel happier and more secure."
"Hey - this young man is right! You can tell at a glance that he knows how to enjoy life!" The wonton chef passed by behind the two of them and happened to hear Rong Heqing's words, and laughed heartily.
It was dark, and the lights were dim. The boss didn't realize Rong Heqing was a girl, so he said proudly, "Just because you said that, I'll charge you for one bowl of wontons today, and the remaining bowl is a gift from me!"
"That's great, thank you, big brother!" Rong Heqing didn't hesitate to stand up and bowed to him.
The wonton boss smiled and waved his hand, "If you like it, come back next time!"
"Sure!" Rong Heqing left the money for a bowl and looked at Chu Suifeng, "Xiao Chu, go home."
Chu Suifeng stood up and followed her. Looking at her long shadow, he couldn't help but smile. What a hard to figure out master she was.
*
As soon as the two men left, the window facing the street on the second floor of the inn behind the wonton stall suddenly opened.
"What are you looking at, Master?"
"The same kind..." someone murmured.
"What did the master say?"
"Nothing. Go tell Liang Changjin to be careful during this period and don't get caught."
"Yes."
Rong Heqing and Chu Suifeng's figures disappeared around the corner, and the window closed silently, as if no one had ever been there.
