Ling Heng also discovered that something was wrong with Li Shuangwan, and he was extremely annoyed. If it wasn't in broad daylight and he was afraid that someone might find out about his flaws, he really wanted to let the secret guard named Ying replace him.

Too lazy to deal with it, she quickly pretended to be concerned and asked, "Ah Wan, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad?"

Li Shuangwan immediately covered her stomach and said, "Your Highness, I, I feel uncomfortable in my stomach."

"Someone, go get the doctor."

Li Shuangwan shook his head: "No, I'll just go to the bathroom, no problem."

Ling Heng nodded without thinking and told Yi Zhu: "Serve your master well."

Yizhu was also very frightened. The princess didn't use much breakfast today, and gave the rest to them. They ate it without any problems, so why did the princess...

He and Roman hurriedly supported him on both sides.

The abbot said: "The temple has prepared a secluded courtyard for the prince and princess. I will have someone lead the princess there now."

"Thank you, Master."

Looking at Li Shuangwan walking away, Ling Heng frowned slightly seeing that although she was half-bent over, she was walking very fast.

"Your Highness, please come this way." Before Ling Heng could grasp the thought that flashed through his mind, the abbot interrupted him.

Ling Heng nodded slightly to him and followed the abbot.

On the way to the courtyard, Li Shuangwan whispered to the two maids beside him: "Did you see Si Pu when you first came?"

Luo Man shook her head: "The maid didn't notice."

Yizhu thought about it seriously and said, "It seems not."

Roman: "No? How strange. Didn't Sipo want to follow His Highness even when he went to the toilet? His Highness and the Princess will be at Yue Lao Temple together for the whole day. How could he not come with them? Did His Highness have something important for him to do?"

Li Shuangwan tightly grasped Yizhu and Luoman's hands, and his face turned pale.

"Madam, this is it."

Li Shuangwan swallowed hard and said, "Thank you, Master."

As soon as the three of them stepped into the yard, Li Shuangwan immediately ordered Roman: "Go call Uncle Zhou, quickly."

Seeing that his master looked really unhappy, Roman did not dare to delay, let alone ask more questions, and immediately ran towards the yard where the coachman and guards were placed.

Yizhu: "Princess, what's wrong? Are you feeling sick in your stomach?"

"Don't ask, just grind the ink for me right away."

Yizhu then realized that his master had come here with an excuse. He didn't dare to ask any more questions and immediately went into the house to grind ink.

This room was for them to rest and was equipped with writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstone.

Li Shuangwan calmed himself down, forced himself to calm down, and sat down at the table.

Time was running out, but his mind was working fast. Almost by the time Zhou Wen stepped into the yard, Li Shuangwan had already dried the ink, rolled up the letter and stuffed it into the mailbox.

The two maids, Yizhu and Luoman, have always been conscientious in their duties. Although they can read, they will not even glance at what their master writes.

"Princess." Zhou Wen stood obediently at the door waiting for instructions.

Li Shuangwan walked a few steps to Zhou Wen, handed him the letter tube and a jade pendant, and said, "Uncle Zhou, I have something very important that concerns your life. Please make sure you handle it."

Seeing the princess speaking so seriously, Zhou Wen straightened his hunched back, took the letter tube and jade pendant with both hands, and said carefully: "Please give your instructions, princess."

"Please, Uncle Zhou, deliver this letter to my grandfather as quickly as possible and ask him to help deliver it to my father in the northwest. The most important thing is to intercept the letter in Chen Ping's hand. Uncle Zhou, remember to intercept the letter I sent to Chen Ping yesterday."

Zhou Wen immediately said, "Yes, Princess, please rest assured, I will definitely get it done."

Li Shuangwan: "My grandfather recognizes this jade pendant. He will definitely believe you when he sees it."

She couldn't help but take a step closer to Zhou Wen: "Uncle Zhou, please be careful. If someone wants to intercept the letter in your hand, you must pretend to be defeated before giving it to them. Don't reveal any flaws."

Zhou Wen responded, "Yes, I understand. It's okay to give this letter to them, but the letter sent to Mr. Zhu must be stopped."

"Correct."

Li Shuangwan took a deep breath and said, "It doesn't matter if the jade pendant falls into their hands. This piece of jade is not worth much, it just has a different meaning to me."

The jade was already missing a corner. It was this piece of jade that saved her life when she was shot by an enemy arrow on the battlefield.

As the saying goes, white jade is valuable only when it is flawless. One like this one with a corner missing is worthless. If someone notices it, they won't suspect anything and will just think that the owner gave it to the driver as a reward because he thought it had no value.

"Yes, I will obey the princess."

"If that person is just following you and doesn't take the letter from you, then you should go back to Prince Heng's Mansion and leave the matter to Chen Rong. Go to my study and take the half-copied Buddhist scripture from me, and spread it out on the table. Don't stay, come back immediately, and pretend to be in a hurry."

Zhou Wen's heart was pounding as he became more and more aware of the seriousness of the situation. He put his things away and trotted away.

Li Shuangwan looked at Zhou Wen's no longer young back, but because of her anxiety, he quickly disappeared at the gate of the yard.

He took a few deep breaths to calm his violently beating heart.

The letter she had just asked Uncle Zhou to deliver was written very cleverly.

In the letter, she reminded her father to be wary of Li Huaiyi's family from the second house, especially her second uncle's son Li Yuanming. She suspected that her second uncle's family was working for a certain prince, but she did not write who it was.

It even listed several suspicious things that Li Huaiyi and Li Yuanming, father and son, had done during this period.

Some of these things were very secretive and were told to her by Li Shuangmiao herself during her time in the cold palace in her previous life.

Of course, at this time, my second uncle's family had not yet switched to Ling Heng.

This letter can be used to test whether my grandparents' family is being monitored by Ling Heng, and it can also be used to deal with my second uncle's family through Ling Heng.

She believed that if Ling Heng found this letter, he would definitely intercept it.

In order to keep it from her, Ling Heng would forge a reply.

Handwriting can be imitated, but some things cannot be imitated.

But if the letter in Chen Ping's hand was presented to Ling Heng by Si Po.

Li Shuangwan didn’t dare to think about the consequences.

As soon as Zhou Wen left, Ling Heng came in. Before he came in, he had already heard the words: "Ah Wan."

Li Shuangwan took a deep breath, pulled the corners of his mouth, raised a smile and greeted him: "Your Highness."

"Awan, how are you? Did you eat something bad?"

Li Shuangwan lowered her head slightly, a blush on her face: "It's okay now, let's go over there."

Ling Heng came to grab Li Shuangwan's hand. Li Shuangwan lifted the hem of her skirt with both hands, pretending not to see it. After crossing the threshold, she put her hand on Yizhu's wrist.

Yizhu secretly glanced at Ling Heng, lowered his head and said nothing.

Inside the main hall, eighteen monks were divided into three rows and sitting cross-legged on cushions, chanting obscure Buddhist texts.

The abbot looked at Li Shuangwan deeply, chanted a Buddhist name and said, "Your Highness Prince Heng, Miss Li, please."

Li Shuangwan suddenly raised her head to look at the abbot, only to see that he had a kind face and was leading Ling Heng forward. He seemed unaware that he had just called her "Miss Li" instead of "Princess Heng."

The matchmaker had a smile on his face, holding a red string in his hand, looking down at the couple kneeling on the ground and praying.

"One bow."

"Goodbye."

"Three bows."

When Li Shuangwan raised his head, he found that Yue Lao, who had just smiled, now had the right corner of his mouth slightly raised.

It was like a sneer.

By the time Zhou Wen parked the carriage at the back door of Prince Heng's Mansion, it was already past noon.
