Xiao Juan said, “But I did find clues about Cheng Qi stealing the silver.”

Wei Liao spread his hands. “So that’s the problem! Why did he steal the silver? I think as long as we investigate this, we might know the truth behind the stolen silver case.”

Yan Nanguan followed his words and racked his brain to figure out what the truth was.

Xiao Juan suddenly said, “You’re not attending the birthday banquet in the front courtyard and specially came here to tell us this?”

Wei Liao laughed. “Haha, didn’t I just say that? I just happened to pass by and wanted to talk to you. By the way, how’s the Princess Consort? Is she seriously injured?”

Even though he sounded relaxed as if he was asking casually, Xiao Juan knew in his heart that his real motive for coming here was for Niaoniao.

Xiao Juan’s gaze turned cold. “Niaoniao is doing very well. You don’t have to worry.”

Both sides were smart people. Some things just had to be nipped in the bud.

Wei Liao smiled again.

“Haha, I’m glad she’s fine. I’ll get going.”

With that, he turned around and left. The moment he turned away, his smile disappeared.

When Xiao Juan was not around, he could easily see Yu Niaoniao. However, now that Xiao Juan was back, it was difficult for him to even see Yu Niaoniao again.

This made him very unhappy.

Yan Nanguan looked at Wei Liao’s departing figure and hesitated before speaking.

“Your Highness, Wei Liao and the Princess Consort have been quite close recently. There are already many rumors.”

“I naturally believe in the Princess Consort. She is devoted to you and can’t have an affair with another man. But she is still subjected to withstand public opinion!”

“Moreover, Wei Liao is not a good person, to begin with. It would be bad if he had designs on the County Princess. You must be more careful. Don’t let Wei Liao take advantage of you.”

Xiao Juan was silent.

If Niaoniao really did not like Wei Liao, he would naturally chase Wei Liao far away and not let him harass her.

But what if Niaoniao liked Wei Liao? In that case, they were in love.

What right did Xiao Juan have to break them up?

The bedroom door was pulled open and Chun Feng and Ye Yu walked out. One of them was carrying the clothes the County Princess had changed out of, and the other was carrying a copper basin with washing water.

The two of them bowed to Duke Lang.

Xiao Juan asked, “Where’s Niaoniao?”

Before Chun Feng could answer, Yu Niaoniao’s voice came from the room.

“I’m here!”

With that, she skipped out.

Xiao Juan frowned. “Don’t run. You’re still injured.”

Yu Niaoniao said righteously, “I injured my wrist, not my foot. What does it matter if I run a couple of steps?”

Yan Nanguan cupped his fists at her.

“Greetings, Princess Consort.”

Yu Niaoniao immediately asked, “How are those assassins? Have they confessed?”

Yan Nanguan said, “They’re still being interrogated.”

Yu Niaoniao said indignantly.

“It’s fine if they attempted to assassinate Princess Ni Yang, but they actually want to frame Duke Lang. We have to teach them a lesson. Don’t be soft-hearted when you interrogate them.”

Seeing that she was still so concerned about Duke Lang, Yan Nanguan could not help but smile.

“Don’t worry, I know what to do.”

Yu Niaoniao raised her uninjured hand and waved it twice. “All of you, leave. I have something to talk to His Highness alone.”

“Aye. ”

Yan Nanguan, Chun Feng, and Ye Yu had all left.

Only Xiao Juan and Yu Niaoniao were left under the porch.

Yu Niaoniao asked deliberately.

“The birthday banquet is being held in front. There are wine, meat, and beauties dancing there. Why don’t you go there and play?” Xiao Juan said calmly, “I’m not interested in those.” Yu Niaoniao leaned over and looked into his eyes.

“Then what are you interested in?”

Xiao Juan did not answer and asked, “What are you interested in now?”

Yu Niaoniao said, “There are many things, such as delicious food, interesting stories, beautiful scenery, beautiful dresses, sparkling jewelry, and the most popular rouge and powder… I’m very interested in all those!”

Xiao Juan subconsciously blurted out, “Are you interested in Wei Liao too?” Yu Niaoniao was stunned.

Xiao Juan immediately corrected himself. “Forget it, pretend I didn’t ask.”

Actually, the moment he said it, he regretted it.

It was her freedom to like someone.

If he interfered too much, he would only make Niaoniao unhappy.

Xiao Juan turned around, wanting to leave.

Yu Niaoniao quickly grabbed his sleeve and said quickly, “I’m not interested in Wei Liao.”

Xiao Juan stopped in his tracks.

Yu Niaoniao continued, “To be precise, I’m not interested in any man in this world except you. I’m only interested in you!”

Xiao Juan lowered his eyes.

She was doing it again.

She was weaving false dreams again.

Seeing that he was silent, Yu Niaoniao knew that he did not believe her and hurriedly emphasized.

“I’m serious. I’m not lying to you!”

Xiao Juan said, “You’re indeed not lying to me. I can help you find out the truth about the Feng family’s destruction. I’m useful to you, so you’ll naturally be very interested in me.”

Yu Niaoniao looked at him blankly, her fingers involuntarily loosening.

Xiao Juan’s sleeve fell.

He walked away.

In the end, Yu Niaoniao was still angry and shouted behind him.

“You’re not the only one in this world who can help me. Wei Liao can also help me find out the truth, but why am I not interested in him? Why can’t you think about this?”

Xiao Juan said without looking back. “Because you don’t trust him.”

Yu Niaoniao was speechless.

Xiao Juan’s back quickly disappeared around the corner.

Originally, Yu Niaoniao wanted to explain it to Xiao Juan that she and Wei Liao were just putting on a show. She had no thoughts about Wei Liao at all, and Wei Liao treated her the same. They hated each other and would never have an affair in their lives.

However, from Xiao Juan’s reaction, no matter how she explained, he would not believe her. He had already decided that there was something ambiguous between her and Wei Liao.

The more Yu Niaoniao thought about it, the angrier she became.

She really wished she could pry open Xiao Juan’s mind and see what he was thinking.

After the birthday banquet, the news that Princess Ni Yang stabbed the Prince Consort to death quickly spread throughout Jinwu City.

The commoners discussed this.

“Did you hear? Princess Ni Yang killed her consort!”

“Didn’t the Prince Consort want to murder her first? The Prince Consort has committed a capital crime.”

“Even so, he’s still her Prince Consort. How can she kill her own Prince Consort with her own hands?!”

“That’s right! The Prince Consort committed a crime and could have been handed over to the Imperial Court. The Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple are not to be trifled with. How can a princess like her kill someone herself?

Moreover, she killed her own Prince Consort!”

“It’s said that a day as husband and wife is a hundred days of kindness. How could she bear to do it? She’s really cold-blooded!”

As the rumors spread, Princess Ni Yang’s image in the hearts of the commoners became more and more terrifying.

Now, as long as everyone talked about her, they would look afraid.

As the person involved, Princess Ni Yang did not care at all. She even had the time to gossip with Yu Niaoniao.

“Now that Juan is back, what about your Young Master Wei?”
