"Miss Qin, Miss Qin, I'm back..."

Qin Gentiana frowned slightly, Zhang Lihua's shout interrupted her thoughts, she thought of Liu Yaona for a moment, turned around in a hurry, and saw Zhang Lihua running towards her quickly in a red dress.

She ran in a hurry, and in her haste, she suddenly stepped on the ground.

"ah… "

Zhang Lihua screamed, seeing that she was about to fall to the ground, her slender waist was suddenly grabbed by someone, and her delicate body crashed into the soft embrace in embarrassment.

She stood still in shock, her beautiful face was slightly flushed, and she whispered, "Thank you Miss Qin."

Seeing that her eyes seemed to be flustered, Qin Gentian held her hand worriedly, "This place is near the water pavilion, and the gravel road is slippery, Lihua should be more careful on the road."

"En." Zhang Lihua sneaked a glance at the hands they were holding, and slightly curled her lower lip.

She leaned close to Qin Gentiana, and whispered to her, "The people of Liu's mansion really took you back. I wanted to see her, but Liu Xiang sent me away with the excuse that she was going to rest after a long journey."

"I suspect that Niao Na is trapped in the Liu Mansion."

Qin Gentiana's heart sank.

"I think Liu Xiang is tied back to Youna, but because her face has been healed, and she wants to use her daughter to make another marriage." Zhang Lihua was taught by the queen for a while, and she can see Liu Xiang's plan at a glance, "But in Liu Xiang's eyes, there is no prince of the right age in Beijing who is worthy of Youna."

Thinking that the emperor's birthday was approaching and envoys from various countries had arrived in the imperial capital one after another, Qin Geng frowned slightly, "Maybe... it's not certain that Prime Minister Liu wants to promote a marriage between other countries."

Zhang Lihua's complexion changed, and she said coldly, "Although I, Nanyue and Xirong, have been fighting each other, they are not weak enough to use women for diplomacy."

"Left and right are just guesswork."

Seeing that she was angry, Qin Gentian hurriedly comforted her, and said softly, "We can always find a way if we think about it carefully."

The two were bored in the waterside pavilion, and they thought of three ways before they gave up. When it was almost dusk, Zhang Lihua wanted to stay for Gentiana Qin to eat, but Prince Ding's Mansion sent people to pick Gentiana Qin back.

Although it was on the grounds that Young Master Qin Jue refused to eat because he couldn't see his sister, Zhang Lihua knew that it must be that King Gu Jiuxiao couldn't see Miss Qin staying with him.

She was gloomy in her heart, but she had no reason to keep Qin Gentian, so she followed closely behind her, and personally sent her to the carriage.

Qin Gentile stepped into the carriage, and the moment she was about to put down the curtain, she stopped, hesitated for a moment, and asked softly, "Lihua, is there any young lady in the Duke's mansion who looks similar to the deceased young master?"

Zhang Lihua's face changed slightly.

She took a step forward and shook her head slightly at her, "Miss Qin, don't bring up your little uncle anymore. If Grandfather hears about it, I'm afraid he will get angry again."

Qin Gentiana was stunned for a while, a little puzzled.

This matter involves a family scandal, Zhang Lihua can't talk to her more, she can only say, "There is no one in the house who looks like my little uncle, even if he looks a little, my grandfather can't bear it."

How much hatred does this father have, even someone who resembles his son can't tolerate it.

Qin Gentian frowned subconsciously. Hearing Zhang Lihua's meaning, it seemed that he didn't know that there was a foolish young master who looked very similar to the young master in Dingguo's mansion, and the person those masters were secretly looking for should obviously be him.

Thoughts turned in her mind a few times, but her expression remained calm, and she glanced at her gratefully, "Thank you Lihua for reminding me."

The two bid farewell and left.

But I don't know that in the underground secret room of Duke Ding's mansion, the idiot with the Houttuynia cordata in his mouth has been brought back with ease.

"W-Where did this Houttuynia cordata come from..."

The nanny who was in charge of taking care of the fool saw what he was chewing, and hurriedly pulled it out carefully.

The fool was stunned for a moment, and immediately wrinkled his face in grievance. Seeing that he was about to cry, the mother was so distressed that she hurriedly stuffed the Houttuynia cordata back into his mouth. Seeing that he was happy again, she sighed sadly.

"Maybe it's playful, and you're just trying to gnaw on it yourself?"

The person who brought him back hesitated, "When I passed by, he was nestled by the pool, and there was no one around him."

"It's good that no one bumps into you." Mammy sighed, reaching out her hand to stroke his soft hair pitifully, "Otherwise, I'll add another sin."
