The Thirteenth Princess

C168 Fifth Prince

After hearing the rumors outside the palace regarding Duan Yunfei and her marriage, Duan Yunfei immediately felt that something was amiss, and immediately sent people to investigate.

Unlike Mu Chuyang, Duan Yunfei had begun to investigate from the very beginning. Since she was able to plan everything in one night and walk out rumours, this meant that the mastermind must have found out about the marriage between Duan Yunfei and Duan Yunfei immediately after it was set, and it was providing an exit for Duan Yunfei.

Xiao Gui had served Yuwen Di before. Although it had only been two months, he was very familiar with the eunuchs in the royal study. Moreover, Xiao Gui had always been very popular. It was very easy for him to find out who had left the royal study that day.

After finding out which eunuch sent the message in secret, Xiao Guizi followed this line to find the eunuch's master. The surprising thing was that the person behind this was actually the Fifth Prince. This caused Xiao Gui to think about how to report Duan Yunfei to him immediately, so he could not care less about how Duan Yunfei was finding it difficult to save herself.

"Princess, I, Gui Zi, have a matter to discuss with you."

It wasn't easy for Duan Yunfei to finish copying the < Women's Ring > ten times. She was just about to send Xiao Gui Zi to deliver this thick stack of books to pepper house, but she didn't expect Xiao Gui Zi to come first.

"Let him in. I happen to be looking for him."

"This servant pays his respects to Thirteenth Princess."

"Exempt from the formalities. Why are you looking for me today?"

It had already been more than half a month since Xiao Gui entered the Red Luan Palace. Other than the grudge between Xiao Ya and Xiao Gui, Xiao Gui had always been meticulously taken care of by the Red Luan Palace, and never had any problems with it. Thus, when Xiao Gui said that she wanted to look for Duan Yunfei for something, it was probably not for her own matters, but for the things Duan Yunfei had instructed him to do.

"Reporting to the princess, I have investigated the matter which the princess had ordered me to investigate."

Duan Yunfei didn't inform Xiao Yang that Xiao Gui had secretly investigated the source of the palace's rumours. Therefore, Xiao Yang looked at Duan Yunfei and Xiao Gui with a puzzled expression, not understanding what they were talking about.

"Who did it?" Although Duan Yunfei was physically and mentally exhausted after copying the < < Female Ring > > ten times, once she heard that the rumors had a clue, Duan Yunfei's sleepiness was immediately driven away and she became spirited again.

"Reporting to the princess, it is... "It's the Fifth Prince …"

Different from Xiao Gui Zi's shock, Duan Yunfei did not have much of a reaction, as if she had already guessed this would happen.

Hearing this, Xiao Ya also understood what Duan Yunfei and Xiao Gui Zi were talking about. had sent Xiao Gui to find out the source of the rumors in the palace, and Xiao Gui had come to report this matter today.

"Very good. I understand. You may leave now." Duan Yunfei said to Xiao Gui calmly. The way he looked anxious was completely different from before, making Xiao Gui wonder if that person was actually Duan Yunfei.

Xiao Gui walked to the door and was called back by Duan Yunfei.

"Send all of these to the pepper house and tell the Queen that I have finished copying the < Female Ring > ten times. Please take a look." Duan Yunfei pointed to the thick pile of papers at the side, but in his heart, he was still thinking of a way to get justice for Mu Chuyang and the Prince Mu's Mansion.

Xiao Gui brought out the copy of < Women's Ring > that Duan Yunfei copied out and brought it out of the room, hugging onto Duan Yunfei's shoulder. After hearing about what had happened, on one hand, Xiao Gui thought that Duan Yunfei had gotten into an argument with Duan Liusu because of her words, and blamed herself. On the other hand, she felt that Duan Yingluo wasn't as kind and innocent as she had heard him to be.

"Princess, if this matter involves the Fifth Prince, what should we do now?" After Xiao Gui left, Xiao Yang couldn't help but to ask Duan Yunfei what he thought about this matter, although he was afraid that Duan Yunfei didn't have any ideas on how to deal with it.

Duan Yunfei could not help but snicker in her heart. "Empress, I did not expect that I would land in your hands so early this morning. In the blink of an eye, the Fifth Prince's weakness is in my hands."

If Mu Chuyang were to know of this matter, obstructing Yuwen Di's prestige, the Prince Mu's Mansion would likely not put the Fifth Prince's scheme behind the incident to the public.

However, after today's incident where Duan Yunfei had been punished, Duan Yunfei understood Yuwen Di's expectations for the relationship between his siblings. Yuwen Di did not ask for them to love each other, but he would never allow someone to harm their kin.

However, it was still impossible to place all his hopes on Yuwen Di. Duan Yunfei still decided to make a move, but with her strength alone, it would still be difficult.

Coincidentally, Tenth Prince Duan Changge had returned to the palace today to see Yuwen Di. When he heard that Duan Yunfei had been grounded, he had thought of coming to the Red Luan Palace to see Duan Yunfei.

"You're talking about you. It's only been a few days since we've met, why did you stir up such a mess?"

The moment Duan Changge entered the Red Luan Palace, he started to say that Duan Yunfei was wrong, and did not care about Duan Yunfei's smelly face anymore.

Although Duan Changge and Duan Yunfei were not the same mother, their personalities matched each other, so the relationship between Duan Yunfei and Duan Yunfei could be considered quite good.

As for Duan Changge, compared to the annoying Duan Liusu and the seemingly gentle and honest Duan Yingluo, Duan Changge was even more intimate and straightforward.

It was just that Duan Changge had never admired Ming Li, and had also clearly indicated to Yuwen Di that he did not have any intentions towards the throne, causing Duan Yunfei to be unsure if Duan Changge was willing to help him deal with the Fifth Prince.

"The Tenth royal brother's memory is so bad. How could it be a few days? The Tenth Imperial Brother has clearly not seen Yun Fei for several months. Presumably, the scenery outside the palace is too beautiful, making you forget to return to the palace. "

Although Duan Yunfei had something to ask of him, she was not sure if Duan Changge could support her, so she decided to follow along with Duan Changge's words.

Begging for help required a good opportunity, but for Duan Yunfei, this was not the best time.

"Alright, Yun Fei is still as eloquent as before. Royal brother truly cannot outspeak you. However, even though he didn't come back to visit you, he still remembered you. Look, if you can find a treasure here, why not immediately bring it to the palace for you to take a look? "

If it was in the past, Duan Yunfei would definitely be excited to the point of pestering Duan Changge, begging him not to be suspenseful and to quickly show off his treasures. But today, Duan Yunfei was not in the mood for these so-called treasures.

If people don't offend me, I won't offend them. If people offend me, I'll beat them. This was Duan Yunfei's standard of conduct. Since the Fifth Prince was making trouble for her marriage, she couldn't let the Fifth Prince live too freely.

Duan Changge saw that Duan Yunfei did not seem to be interested in them, and thought that it was weird, as this did not suit Duan Yunfei's personality.

"Yun Fei, what happened to you today? If you don't mind, would you like to speak with your royal brother? "
