Chapter 699: It’s as Easy as a Pre-written Speech

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: End less Fantasy Translation

Miao Linglong accompanied Madam Miao to see Liu Shimei. Upon seeing Liu Shimei, she immediately approached and asked, “Eldest Young Miss Liu, did you go to see Miaozhen? How is she?”

Her expression was anxious, showing genuine concern. She lowered her head and continued, “I wanted to visit her in the morning, but the Zhang family refused me. They said Miaozhen is ill. Is it true?”

Liu Shimei nodded calmly and said, “Yes, I just examined her a moment ago.”

Seeing no suspicious signs in Liu Shimei’s expression, Miao Linglong sighed and said, “Last night, I left Miaozhen alone to release river lanterns. In the blink of an eye, this happened. I can’t figure it out. The Imperial Residence should have tight security. How did these assassins manage to get in?”

Liu Shimei observed her secretly and replied nonchalantly, “They cby water. Although the Crown Prince arranged guards on the water route, it’s still hard to prevent.”

“I wonder if they found anything?” Miao Linglong wore a pained expression and added, “Miaozhen must be deeply affected by this.”

“The Crown Prince will handle the investigation of the assassins,” Liu Shimei showed no emotions on her face, but her mind was busy with thoughts.

Miao Linglong was right; at the Crown Prince’s Residence, knowing that they were going to release river lanterns, security on the water route should have been thorough. Then…

Could the assassins have infiltrated the Yuebin Pavilion much earlier?

If so, there must be sclues to follow!

Of course, the Zhang family would spare no effort in investigating. Even if they managed to deceive the prince’s side, the Zhang family would do their best.

Miao Linglong wanted to say more, but Liu Shimei interrupted, “We’ve already wasted a lot of time. I need to attend to Madam Miao first. There are other patients waiting forlater. I won’t keep you. Excuse me!”

Direct probing, Miao Linglong must have been on guard early, and now it’s not feasible.

Liu Shimei didn’t want to waste ton her, so she turned and immersed herself in her work.

Miao Linglong planned to wait in the waiting area, turned around to see the Silly Second Prince leaning against the corridor pillar with his arms crossed, looking carefree.

He had a silly smile on his face. “Miao Longzi, it’s so strange. Both of you are backup candidates for the Crown Prince’s Consort. Why did those assassins specifically go to find Zhang Miaomiao last night and not you?”

“I’m not an assassin. How would I know!” Miao Linglong replied impatiently.

Huangfu Lingyao sneered, tilted his head, looking like a fool who thought of a perfect idea, “Ah, I know now. You’re the one who brought in the assassins, right?”

Miao Linglong coldly snorted, staring at him, and Miaozhen are relatives, and we are both backup candidates for the Crown Prince’s Consort. If I brought assassins, wouldn’t everyone directly suspect me? Why would I be so stupid to do something so conspicuous?”

Throwing these words, she turned away indignantly.

Huangfu Lingyao stared at her figure, a mocking smile playing on his lips.

Shu Yutong emerged from behind him, also staring in the direction Miao Linglong left, blinked, and asked, “Your Highness, she knows you’re foolish, so why bother explaining so much to you? The key is, she explained so smoothly!”

Huangfu Lingyao nodded, “Yeah, it was as if she had a prepared statement.”

Then he furrowed his brows, lowered his head, and glared at Shu Yutong, “Why do you have the right to say I’m foolish? Who said I’m foolish!”

“Yeah, I also found that you don’t seem foolish!” Shu Yutong jumped onto the railing, trying to lower the height difference between them.

Huangfu Lingyao extended his hand, rubbed his nose with his thumb, and huffed, “I was never foolish, okay!”

This was definitely a statement of absolute truth!

But people tend to be like this—when they speak the truth, others just don’t believe it!

Shu Yutong snorted and walked away, not convinced..
