Chapter 1098: Villainous Act!!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation   Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Princess Jin, huh?” he muttered unconsciously.

In the dead of night, Jiang Yue heard some noise and knew that someone had come. To avoid the people who were watching her and come to harm Xue Yan and the Empress, she quickly sneaked out to take a look. When she saw Zou Ba and Zou Shisi, she was relieved, but she was still a little surprised.

She didn’t expect Zou Ba and Zou Shisi to come so soon.

It seemed that Sifu had given them an entryway to quietly enter. That was why Zou Ba and Zou Shisi were able to confirm that it was Princess Jin so quickly.

Furthermore, the two of them had come together, so she didn’t leave either of them to keep an eye on her or investigate anything. She knew that the person who had sneaked into Sifu’s side and worked as a servant for Sifu was Princess Jin.

“It really is Princess Jin.” This time, it was Zou Shisi who spoke in an extremely low voice.

Jiang Yue had already guessed it. She was not surprised at all. She only whispered, “Don’t go near the shop for the time being. We must not alert the enemy.”

Xue Yan had already said that Princess Jin was not a despicable person and would not commit despicable acts. She looked down on despicable acts. Since that was Princess Jin, Sifu would not be in danger.

“Yes!” Zou Ba and Zou Shisi immediately accepted the order.

After Zou Ba and Zou Shisi left, Jiang Yue returned home and went to Xue Yan’s room. She told him that the servant beside Sifu was Princess Jin. She also told Zou Ba and Zou Shisi not to go near the shop for the time being to avoid alerting the enemy.

Xue Yan nodded in agreement. After which, he also suppressed his voice and asked in puzzlement.

“Since it’s Princess Jin, then why did she approach Sifu the moment she arrived?”

Logically speaking, she must have come to Xinyuan to see the Crown Prince… But to personally inquire about the matters here… Why would she approach Sifu first?

Sifu was doing business, and Princess Jin would know better than to meddle in such things. It was impossible for her not to know how shrewd Sifu was, but she still chose to get close to him…

“This is quite strange…” Jiang Yue also fell into deep thought. After a long while, she said, “Why don’t we go to the shop tomorrow and take a look?

Maybe we can find some clues. It doesn’t matter if there’s nothing. It can be considered as building a connection. Even if we meet in the future, who knows what might happen.”

“Mm.” Xue Yan nodded. “Tomorrow, we will pretend to go to the shop to look tor Situ. Good thing we haven’t been to our family’s shop in town for a long time. No one will find it strange if we want to go now.”

The next day, the family continued to plant the orange seedlings, while Jiang Yue and Xue Yan rode an ox filled with rice noodles to their shop.

Xue Sifu didn’t plan to go out of the shop today and was helping to weigh the rice noodles at the counter. He did not expect the two children to suddenly come and give him a fright.

Zou Ba and Zou Shisi had said that Princess Jin was quite open and morally just and wouldn’t do anything despicable. Which meant that she wouldn’t assassinate anyone, he believed them, but he was still a little uneasy with such a skilled person around him.

After all, she had come all the way here. It was impossible for her to just come here for a stroll.

The fact that the princess had approached him was suspicious.

Moreover, Zou Ba and Zou Shisi were not here. Although the two children had been practicing martial arts for a long time, they were still in the basic stage. If something unexpected happened, it would be terrible…

Fortunately, he had already sent Princess Jin to the backyard and asked her to help feed the horses. Therefore, she did not see the two kids when they arrived..
