The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

Along the way, Yang Qi and Xiao Qing took away two plates filled with fine wine and delicacies, and dressed up as maids to serve the young lady.

From a distance, Yang Qi saw Han Renyuan push the door and enter the innermost room on the third floor.

However, there were two guards in green clothes with knives guarding outside the house to prevent outsiders from entering the house.

Xiaoqing approached her master silently and shook her master's sleeve. She waited for Yang Qi to turn around, then she looked around silently, pausing for a moment at a few places.

Yang Qi had no martial arts skills, so naturally he couldn't see anything unusual around him, but he could guess that there must be many secret guards deployed nearby.

Giving Xiaoqing a look that told her to stay calm, Yang Qi hurriedly carried the delicacies in his hands to Han Renyuan's room.

As expected, the two guards at the door blocked Yang Qi's way with their swords as if they had agreed to do so, and shouted, "What are you doing?"

Yang Qi was a little surprised and raised the plate in his hand slightly: "My two masters, there are a lot of things to do today. My mother asked me to come over to help and bring some food."

"Go back and tell them that we don't need food in this room, so take it down."

Looking at the delicacies in his hands, Yang Qi shrank his neck and muttered, "But this is against the rules."

The reason why Yanchun Pavilion can sit firmly in the leading position in the capital is inseparable from its special business model.

Almost all the brothels in the Tianyuan Dynasty signed contracts with the girls, so they had absolute control over them.

Unless they meet a wealthy customer who is willing to redeem the girls, these girls will just wait to die in the building for the rest of their lives.

The innovation of Yanchun Pavilion is that it never signs contracts with girls.

Here, if a girl doesn't want to do it anymore, she can leave at any time.

Yanchun Pavilion would not ask about the tips that the guests gave to the girls privately, and let the girls keep them for themselves.

As a result, all the girls in the pavilion are now willing to work hard to attract more and better customers.

Similarly, without the reward money from the girls, where would Yanchun Pavilion’s profit come from?

The answer is obvious. Naturally, we have to work hard on the delicious food and wine.

In Yanchun Pavilion, even a simple pot of tea is enough for ordinary people to consume for a long time.

The guard standing at the door might not know the rules of Yanchun Pavilion, but Han Renyuan, who was the son of the Minister of Revenue and a frequent visitor to Yanchun Pavilion, could not pretend not to know.

"reward."

A deep voice came from inside the house. One of the guards put away his knife, took out a small silver ingot from his purse, and placed it on Yang Qi's tray: "No need to deliver food today."

The moment he saw the silver ingot, Yang Qi immediately put away his disgusted expression and turned into ecstasy. He hurriedly held the plate with one hand and quickly put the silver ingot in his arms with the other hand.

"Yes, yes, yes, that's what you said, sir."

With her flattering smile and slightly bent body, no one could connect this plain-looking maidservant with the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Song's mansion who had never done any housework.

Turning around, Yang Qi returned to Xiao Qing's side, pulled Xiao Qing with a smile, and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "There is more than one Han Renyuan in the room."

In his previous life, Yang Qi stayed in the Han Mansion for a full eight years, and was very familiar with Han Renyuan's voice.

The voice that just came from the house was not Han Renyuan's!

"Master, this place is full of mixed people, you'd better go back early.

If you want to know anything, just leave it to me and Adu."

Yang Qi glanced at Xiao Qing and handed the silver ingot that the guard had just given to Xiao Qing: "Here, this is the reward money just now."

This girl has been talking a lot more recently than before. Yang Qi can still clearly recall how cold she was when he first met Xiao Qing.

Subconsciously taking the silver ingot thrown by the master, Xiaoqing sighed silently in her heart. It was really tiring to follow such a master who went wherever there was danger.

"Adu, did that room just call the girl?"

"Called Leng Qinyue."

"Just one?"

"Yes."

Leng Qinyue, Yang Qi silently repeated this name several times in his heart.

Before, I had never heard of such a person in Yanchun Pavilion.

Is this person a secret agent sent here by the Fifth Prince, or is he a target chosen by the Fifth Prince to conceal his tracks?

Although Xiaoqing’s previous suggestion was not adopted by the master, Xiaoqing is not someone who will give up easily.

“Master, we cannot enter this room, so how can we confirm that the Fifth Prince is here and who he is conversing with?

Or, come back earlier..."

Before Xiaoqing finished speaking, Yang Qi patted Xiaoqing on the shoulder excitedly and said, "That makes sense. Since we can't get in, let's find a way to get them out.

You said, should we burn it with fire or pour water on it? "

What Yang Qi said was extremely illogical, and Xiao Qing was confused after hearing it. What on earth was going on?

The person behind Yanchun Pavilion hasn't been identified yet, yet they're setting fire to it?

But Peilin, who was secretly listening to Yang Qi's words, couldn't help but feel his temples throbbing a few times, and then he stepped lightly and landed in front of Yang Qi: "Miss."

When Peilin showed up, Yang Qi didn't beat around the bush: "Where is His Highness?"

"This way."

The Fifth Prince's trip was so secretive this time. Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had received the news in advance, how could he be unprepared?

Moreover, Adu got the news from the intelligence department of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, which meant that His Royal Highness already knew that he was secretly keeping an eye on the Fifth Prince.

Although, from the very beginning, Yang Qi never thought of hiding this matter.

Yang Qi originally thought that Adu would take her to a house in Yanchun Pavilion, but unexpectedly, he took her to an ordinary house in the flower lane next door.

The moonlight was quiet, and candlelight flickered faintly in the house, casting the silhouette of the elegant young man inside onto the window. It was a rare and beautiful scene.

Yang Qi looked at it in a daze and couldn't help but stop.

The Crown Prince in the room had not heard the next footsteps for a long time, and could not help but knock on the table: "I am stunned."

Hearing this, Yang Qi smiled brilliantly and pushed the door open.

The secret guards around the house couldn't help but get goose bumps when they heard the Crown Prince's doting tone.

During this period, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been handling the cases of the criminal Prime Minister Bai Qi and the commoner Nian Chuan with swift and decisive action.

Even the secret guards around him became harder in heart.

Was that gentle voice just now really spoken by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?

As the leader of the secret guards, Peilin naturally knew the most. Feeling the gazes of everyone, Peilin felt his neck a little cold and touched it silently.

Your Highness and Miss, really, you are becoming more and more inconsiderate of the occasion.

The next time the Queen Mother asks me with concern, how should I, as her subordinate, respond?

It's so difficult!
