Chapter 1451: Did I Take Liberties with Brother Fu Ce?

Feng Fuce was in a good mood, didn’t want to argue with them.

As for that matter of the former dynasty’s Crown Prince, wait until Bai Zhi’er sobers up tomorrow morning, then ask her opinion.

Fan Xinhui returned to her courtyard in a daze.

She had been caught in the rain, distracted all the way back.

"Madam, you, you finally came back!" Ke Yong had been kneeling in front of her door for a long time.

Seeing Fan Xinhui’s figure, he hurriedly crawled forward on his knees.

"I know I was wrong, Little Hong seduced me and tricked me into helping her steal her Contract, I was confused at the time, and believed what she said."

"She also wanted to drive a wedge between us..."

Fan Xinhui ignored his words, just stared blankly ahead.

Ke Yong didn’t know what she was thinking, assumed she was still angry.

So he begged, tugging at her sleeve: "Madam, I was really wrong! The child was killed by the Knockout Drug she used, it’s also my fault, I’m really a terrible person!"

He slapped himself over and over again.

Fan Xinhui felt frustrated, shook off his sleeve, and entered the room, then slammed the door shut.

Outside the door, Ke Yong’s voice of apology kept coming through.

Fan Xinhui had no time to pay attention.

Right now, all she could think about was who had seen them, if that person had seen clearly, and how much of their conversation had been overheard.

If the court found out, not only was she still involved with remnants of the former dynasty, but she had also been pregnant with the former dynasty Crown Prince’s child.

What should she do then!

The century-old foundation of the Fan Family would be destroyed by her.

Thinking of this, Fan Xinhui couldn’t help but tremble.

An hour later, her confidant maid rushed in.

"Madam, we found out."

Fan Xinhui hurriedly asked: "What did you find?"

The maid nodded: "As you suspected, there were indeed some reeds stuck under the bottom of a boat. The boatman has been interrogated, he said he didn’t know the people who rented the boat, only that a gentleman accompanied by a young lady, followed by a group of guards, who were quite generous."

Fan Xinhui frowned: "Did he describe their appearance?"

The maid shook her head: "The boatman didn’t know how to describe them, he just kept saying they had a noble aura, were all handsome, and spoke without an accent, not like Peng City people."

Fan Xinhui suddenly thought of a possibility.

Her gaze gradually became stern.

Could it be... the court had become aware and specifically sent someone to secretly investigate?

*

The next day.

When Bai Zhi’er woke up, she still felt a bit confused.

Her head didn’t hurt at all, but it was as if she had dreamt a very long dream.

The details of this dream were too real.

She dreamt she got drunk and made a move on Feng Fuce on the boat.

Later, back at the residence, she wouldn’t let him leave, even actively threw herself at him and stripped off his outer garments.

Feng Fuce clearly had quite some strength, but wasn’t able to push her away.

The two of them rolled on the bed, she even sat on him acting shamelessly.

As for what happened afterwards, Bai Zhi’er couldn’t remember.

She held her head, trying to recall.

"Oh no, did I offend Brother Fu Ce? This is terrible, osmanthus wine usually doesn’t get me drunk!"

At this moment, a female voice came from the door: "Madam, are you awake?"

Bai Zhi’er was startled: "You...who are you?"

The voice at the door said: "This servant is called Cai Ying, just bought by Master. He said, Madam didn’t bring a maid back, specially instructed this servant to accompany and serve you."

Bai Zhi’er blinked: "Come in."

The door was pushed open, a pretty young girl walked in.

She smiled with dimples on her cheeks: "Madam, would you like to wash up first, or should I prepare your meal?"
