Chapter 547 Prince of Another Country
“These things have already been investigated. Their family situation has been thoroughly investigated, as well as her husband.” Miss Tian said this and then asked in a low voice, “If you really like them, brother, why don’t I send someone to find two good ones for you?”
"No need, you just need to take care of yourself."
"Then I'll trouble you to send Mo to me as soon as possible, brother. I'll take good care of myself."
"Okay, just wait."
"Thank you, brother."
After delivering the items, Du Mingxian returned to her room. With nothing much to do, she began reading some miscellaneous books. As she read, she became somewhat distracted, reminiscing about her past life.
Some memories are hard to recall clearly; only when you encounter something can you understand it more clearly.
She had absolutely no memory of Ji Heng or the Tian family.
After two days of peace, Du Mingxian went out again to receive a reply from the Crown Prince. After returning to the mansion with the items and the letter, she slipped into her spatial dimension to carefully read the letter.
Ji Heng...a prince from another country.
This single identity is enough to shock people.
The Crown Prince gave her new orders: she should stay here and investigate discreetly, but be careful. He would discuss the rest with her when he arrived.
The fact that the Crown Prince is coming shows that Ji Heng's identity is very important.
She put the letter away and left the space. Just then, someone came to deliver a message: Madam Tian was coming to give something to Miss Tian and asked Du Mingxian to send some milk tea over.
Soon, Du Mingxian finished cooking and took the milk tea over.
When I first met Madam Tian, I took a closer look at her as she looked up to deliver something. She seemed like a gentle and refined woman, giving off a very kind feeling.
Madam Tian also noticed Du Mingxian, "Is this the Du from your courtyard who's good at making milk tea?"
"Yes."
"Have her come to my courtyard tomorrow and teach the old women there. They won't need to come over anymore if they want a drink."
Du Mingxian remained silent this time, but Miss Tian spoke up, "Mother, she doesn't pass on her skills to outsiders. If you'd like, Mother, to send someone over and let me know, I'll have someone deliver it to you."
"Oh? Why isn't this being spread? These people are all from our household; their skills are nothing special." Madam Tian said with great disdain.
Miss Tian explained with a troubled expression, "Mother, she is an employee, not a servant with a contract that lasts forever."
"Oh, I see." Madam Tian glanced at Du Mingxian. "Since it's just an employment, we should definitely buy this skill, so that if something happens in the future and she's not in the manor, you won't even have a place to have a drink."
Miss Tian hurriedly said, "I will consider it. Thank you for reminding me, Mother."
"Why be so polite with your mother?"
Du Mingxian stood to the side without leaving until the two finished speaking, at which point Madam Tian waved her hand impatiently, "Alright, go ahead and get busy."
"Yes." Du Mingxian left quickly, each of them wanting the cooking skills, their calculations were quite swift.
Just bear with it a little longer, until the Crown Prince arrives.
Another half month passed, and Du Mingxian counted down the days until the Crown Prince arrived. One day, a maid came over and said, "Miss wants you to make a portion of all the best drinks and send it over."
"Yes."
Today was her turn to go out and get the fruit, but she had orders to wait until she finished her tasks before going.
She recently made one or two new designs, bringing the total to ten. She made one set of each and carried them all to the front yard.
Miss Tian excitedly twirled around in the yard. When she saw Du Mingxian coming over, she hurriedly asked, "Will it have any effect if I drink this later?"
"No, you can drink it later."
"Won't it taste bad?"
"No, but if it takes more than an hour, Miss, I'm afraid the taste won't be good. I can make it again."
"Okay, we'll talk about it later."
Du Mingxian put her things down and left quietly.
After leaving the manor, she went to look for Qiu Shu immediately, but couldn't find her, which made her a little worried.
Because Qiu Shu always needs to meet with her now, he won't accept other missions. He always waits here in advance. He didn't come today. Could something have happened?
She slowly walked out, searched the alley for a long time but couldn't find it. Just as she was thinking of going back to the place where they often met, a bloody figure fell from the wall in front of her.
The man had a cold and handsome face. He glanced at her and wanted to leave, but his legs went weak and he collapsed, fainting in front of Du Mingxian.
As the man drew closer, she heard the people behind him chasing after him. As if possessed, she stepped forward, grabbed the man, and flashed into the space with him.
They examined the man's injuries and found that they were very serious.
Fortunately, because Ling Silang now knew medicine, the space contained a lot of medicinal herbs and finished medicines, so she immediately went to find the medicine and gave the other party emergency treatment for the wound.
While Du Mingxian was treating the man's wounds inside the space, the pursuers outside had already arrived.
While bandaging the man's wounds, she even took a moment to look up outside. In that one glance, she recognized that the man leading the group was... actually one of Ji Heng's men.
The first time she met Ji Heng, she was delivering drinks to the young lady. Later, she was asked to go to Ji Heng's courtyard, and she saw the man leading the group there.
The people Ji Heng's men want to capture.
They must be saved.
Du Mingxian was even more attentive when treating the man's wounds.
Ji Heng's men searched the area outside but found nothing. They followed the bloodstains to the middle of the alley and then mysteriously disappeared, which was very puzzling.
After discussing it, the group decided to split up and search separately, asking around among different people.
Du Mingxian treated the man's wounds in the space, then took Ling Silang's clothes and changed the man's outer clothes, so that at least no one could tell that he was injured.
After dealing with these matters, she left the space and quickly went outside, heading back to the place where she met Qiu Shu every day. She could see Qiu Shu there from afar.
She found a secluded corner where no one was around, released the man from the space, and then walked to see Qiu Shu.
Qiu Shu was very excited to see Du Mingxian, "Madam, I..."
"You come with me first."
The two walked up to the man, and Du Mingxian instructed Qiu Shu, "Take this man away quietly. Someone is looking for him. Hide him first; he's an important person."
"Yes."
Du Mingxian then had a chance to ask, "Why are you so late today?"
"Your Highness has entered the city. I was already here when I received the signal. I was worried that people nearby might not have seen it, so I rushed over to make contact first."
Du Mingxian was very excited, "You're here?"
"Yes."
Du Mingxian's long-awaited wish was finally fulfilled. She had missed His Highness the Crown Prince so much. "Okay."
"Would you like to see the lady?"
"If Your Highness wishes to see me, we can do it the same way as last time. But it's unlikely we can meet today. Miss Tian seems to have encountered something happy that requires me to rush over and prepare food, so it's not possible today."
