577 Fraudulent Little Master (2)

Shen Yijia turned around and glanced at him. Luoyin didn’t follow. Instead, she pa.s.sed through the hall and walked towards the back. She blinked and turned around to meet Song Jingchen’s gaze.

The two of them exchanged a silent look and followed the two people in front of them without looking sideways.

When she reached a door, the maidservant stopped and reported, “Miss, a guest is here.”

“Come in.”

A slightly cold voice came from inside.

The maidservant pushed open the door and Xuanyuan Ce walked in first. Shen Yijia and Shen Yijia were about to follow when the maidservant reached out to stop them. “Not everyone can enter my lady’s room.”

Xuanyuan Ce stopped and frowned.

“Let them all in,” the woman’s voice said again.

The maidservant was a little surprised, but she did not dare to go against her lady’s wishes. She only glanced at Shen Yijia and Shen Yijia’s faces in disdain, as if they had picked up a huge bargain.

Shen Yijia secretly rolled her eyes.

The three of them walked into the room. The maidservant did not follow them in and closed the door from the outside.

The room was not as pink and tender as the rooms of the women in the brothels Shen Yijia had seen before. Instead, it was very simple here. There was only a large gauze curtain hanging horizontally in the middle, dividing the room into two.

Shen Yijia sniffed. The fragrance in the room was also very pleasant.

Through the gauze curtain, they could vaguely see a woman sitting at the back.

On their side, there was a long table.

“Your Highness, please sit down.” She reached out her hand.

Xuanyuan Ce glanced at the table in front of him and waved his hand. Shen Yijia and Song Jingchen immediately went forward and pulled the gauze curtain from the middle to the left and right. After that, they checked everywhere in the room, including the back window. When they opened it, they saw a small courtyard.

Shen Yijia was speechless. Weren’t they afraid of the ground collapsing after digging such a big hole underground?

After checking, the two of them stood behind Xuanyuan Ce again.

Only then did Shen Yijia have the chance to look at the so-called treasure of the shop, the courtesan.

She was dressed in white, and her cold appearance revealed an indescribable seductiveness. Her black hair was draped over her shoulders, and was only tied up with a green headband. Her eyes, in particular, were slightly upturned. One look at them seemed to be able to seduce one’s soul.

Shen Yijia was stunned. However, what shocked her the most was not her beauty, but that she had seen this person in that picture book.

Of course, it was impossible for Shen Yijia to remember all of the thick picture books. There was a very important reason why she could remember her alone.

This was because she was none other than Shuang’er, Pinellia’s sister.

After the female corpse was exposed, although Pinellia did not confirm that her sister’s corpse was inside, she still cried for a long time.

After all, those corpses had rotted so badly. Without a special birthmark, it would have been difficult to distinguish who was who.

Among the three of them, only one of them had the most normal reaction when he saw her appearance. Therefore, the woman’s gaze stopped on Shen Yijia for a while.

“I’m new here, so we have to be careful,” Xuanyuan Ce explained casually.

The woman did not comment on their inspection of the room. She retracted her gaze from Shen Yijia and slowly stood up. She sat down opposite Xuanyuan Ce and personally poured a cup of tea.

Xuanyuan Ce sat down and met her gaze, but he did not take the tea.

The woman chuckled. “Your Highness, aren’t you being too careful? Is there anyone in our Fragrant Teahouse who dares to poison Your Highness?”

Xuanyuan Ce did not comment.

The smile on the woman’s face faded. She retracted her hand and drank the tea in her cup in one gulp. Then, she tilted the teacup in the air twice to show that she had drunk it and did not poison it. Just as she was about to pour another cup of tea, the strength in her body suddenly dissipated.

She loosened her grip and the teacup slipped. Shen Yijia quickly reached out to catch it, preventing it from falling to the ground.

The woman lay limply on the table and muttered in disbelief, “How… how could this be?”

Song Jingchen and Xuanyuan Ce were also stunned by this change. They had always thought that Fragrant Teahouse didn’t have the guts to poison the king of the Xuanyuan Kingdom. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have roped him in, but instead become enemies with him.

Xuanyuan Ce did not take the teacup because he was thinking about how many people had drank from that cup before.

It was precisely because of this thought that the two of them did not react when the teacup fell.

Thinking of something, the two of them looked at Shen Yijia, who reacted the fastest. Three words flashed across their minds at the same time. No way.

Shen Yijia blinked and nodded to confirm their guess. “I drugged her.”
