Chapter 1642: Chapter 1639: Which Prince

“Those two guards were also entangled, and then suddenly a Prince appeared and saved them.”

Ye Muyu paused in the action of turning her neck, blinked her eyes, making sure she hadn’t heard wrong, feeling a sense of anticipation finally arriving.

“Which Prince?” Ye Muyu asked curiously.

Su Mei shook her head: “I don’t know, Princess Weisaiya was drunk at the time and didn’t know the person was a Prince. I heard it was only after Prince Zilun received the news and went over that they found out it was a Prince.”

“So the Beirong Prince knows which Prince it is?” Ye Muyu followed up.

Su Mei nodded: “Yes, exactly. Anyway, the news hasn’t leaked, and only the Beirong Prince and Princess Weisaiya know which Prince it is. It’s said that the Beirong Prince was very angry and didn’t let Princess Weisaiya leave the post station, nor did the Beirong Prince intend to immediately enter the palace. It’s unclear what they intend to do.”

“Even our people don’t know which Prince it was that night?” Ye Muyu was somewhat surprised, wondering how secretive it must be that even private informants couldn’t find out.

Su Mei: “The servant girl asked Zhu San, but he hasn’t found anything yet. He said he would immediately investigate, and once he has news, he will come and tell me.”

“Hmm, there’s no need to follow too closely, safety first.” Ye Muyu didn’t know what the Beirong and the Prince wanted to do, so she didn’t plan to easily get involved.

Su Mei nodded, indicating she understood.

Ye Muyu rested for a while, then went back into the house to continue her work.

Though the Dowager Empress agreed to her request very gently without even asking why, Ye Muyu always felt that the other party knew something, guessing that the agreement was because she had previously helped during the diagnosis.

She could only assume that she had used that favor, not regretting it, just reminding herself that it couldn’t be used again, as even the kindest person could not be constantly asked for favors, much less someone as noble as the Dowager Empress, no matter how gentle she seemed.

She also didn’t want to owe favors. If she weren’t worried about this matter involving her family, she might not have entered the palace.

Of course, part of it was her own desire to climb higher, and she admitted that she acted more for herself, so she would have to bear the consequences herself and not regret it.

Ye Muyu took a deep breath, her carving becoming more skillful and earnest.

Anyway, she should sincerely prepare the birthday gift for the Empress Dowager, not perfunctorily or for profit, but sincerely.

In the evening.

Chu Heng returned to the mansion.

After instructing Lu Chuan on some matters, he walked towards the backyard.

Halfway there, he ran into Su Mei, who was going out.

Several maidservants were following Su Mei, all of them stopped to bow to him.

“Where is the madam?” Chu Heng asked.

Su Mei: “The madam is still in the wood workshop.”

“Still not resting?” Chu Heng frowned immediately, disagreeing with her actions, and strode away.

Ye Muyu was carving according to the design drawn on the side.

Due to the sheer volume, she had to ensure precision, which tested her carving skills. Her skill was something she learned during vacations in her previous life, and it was not very refined, just a hobby.

However, she has always been serious about learning anything. Picking it up this time, though challenging, wasn’t impossible.

She was too focused, and it took her a while to react when she heard someone knocking. She raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead and asked, “Who is it?”

“It’s me.” Chu Heng’s voice sounded at the door.

Ye Muyu made a sound of acknowledgment and put down the tools in her hand.
