Chapter 68: The Princess Seals Their Lips

Rumei turned her head to look at the horse beside her. There were two horses, one of them must belong to the Regent. She wouldn’t dare ride the Regent’s horse, but Mingyi’s horse was still acceptable.

“I’ll borrow your horse for a bit,” Rumei said, then directly climbed onto Mingyi’s horse.

Mingyi was stunned. He only reacted when he saw Rumei was about to ride away on his horse, saying, “Miss, you’re taking my horse, what am I supposed to ride?”

“Don’t you have another one in your hand?” Rumei rolled her eyes at Mingyi, then said to Yunzhi in the carriage, “Miss, let’s go.”

“Alright, let’s go.”

The carriage slowly drove away. Mingyi watched the departing carriage, then looked at the horse in his hand that belonged to his master. In the end, he didn’t mount the horse, but led it and followed behind.

Rumei saw that he wasn’t riding the Regent’s horse, and she didn’t think about returning the horse to him. It was his master’s fault for suddenly wanting to ride with her own miss, otherwise she wouldn’t have had to snatch the horse.

At the Princess’s mansion, except for Yunzhi, all the other young ladies and gentlemen were staying in the courtyard. The originally planned schedule was temporarily suspended due to the incident.

Some ladies and gentlemen intended to leave, but the Princess’s people wouldn’t let them, guarding the entrance to the courtyard.

Seeing the Princess’s actions, those present weren’t fools, naturally knowing that she wanted to silence them.

Fortunately, there were many witnesses. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be just preventing them from leaving, but taking their lives.

Time passed bit by bit. After waiting for a while, they finally saw the Princess.

Seeing the Princess coming in person, everyone couldn’t help but feel a little nervous. Although the Princess had no real power, she was the Emperor’s biological sister.

The Princess’s face wasn’t looking good. She walked into the courtyard, first glanced at everyone, then sat down and said, “You are all intelligent people, and you have all seen what happened today. I only have one request, that this matter cannot be spread by your mouths. Otherwise, if I find out who spread this matter, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

Hearing this, everyone immediately assured her, “Princess, rest assured, we will keep our mouths shut.”

“Good!” The Princess nodded and said, “Today’s flower gathering ends here. If anyone likes the scenery of the mansion, you can stay and take a look around.”

Although the Princess said so, who dared to stay? They didn’t want to die, so it’s safer to go home.

Therefore, soon those people were let out, and then they all went home.

Hu Ling’er and Yunzhu left together. Their homes were in the same direction, so Hu Ling’er squeezed into Yunzhu’s carriage and talked to her.

To be honest, Hu Ling’er was a little scared, afraid that the Princess would find out that she had helped to instigate the Lang Hua Countess’s targeting of Yunzhi.

Seeing Hu Ling’er’s pale face, Yunzhu could only comfort her, “Ling’er, don’t worry. I think the Lang Hua Countess also dislikes my sister, even if you hadn’t encouraged her, she wouldn’t have done nothing.”

“That’s what you say, but what if the Princess investigates, what then?”

“Ling’er, don’t scare yourself. The Princess should be too busy to bother with you. Even if she wants to find trouble, she will find trouble with my sister.”

“Really?”

“Really, trust me.”

Seeing Yunzhu’s confident expression, Hu Ling’er finally felt relieved. However, she still regretted it, regretting that she had stepped forward.
