Prodigious Princess Qin Zetian 30 Chapter 29

"If that's the case we can secretly send spies to their manor and prove things, or else we can only wait for the banquet" Zhengzhou suggested

"No we cannot send spies, I have heard that half of their servants were killed when they were found spying in the manor. I've also heard of the great skills that their third young miss possess. From the ears that I have in the military, those who witnessed her skills were kept silent and signed a pledge of loyalty to their family. Aside from that, rumours has reached me that the children of the empress were there except for the second prince whom she met after the accident" Minfeng said

"What accident?" I asked

"My sources have said that an imperial prince wanted to eliminate the Qin Clan and started plotting against the third miss. That plot failed, on the night that she was about to be a.s.sa.s.sinated the second prince came. The second prince did not exactly help her but he sent his men to battle against everyone. There weren't any connection either because the third miss is very capable that she never had a scratch on her skin. It ended up with the second prince sending him home, yet rumours say the prince told everyone that he rescued her." Minfeng added

"Did you say her heart is taken by the second prince?" Zhengzhou asked

"No, from my credible sources it was said that they never had any connection. Just the fact that she is very affectionate towards the only daughter of the empress."

Zhao Yang came, a loyal shadow guard gifted by my master to me.

"Master, the empress and the second princess left the palace. Someone was pretending to be the queen. They said she is ill and that no one can see her, but truth be told she's not there. The princes were sent to unknown sects of the North. Only the second prince was left."

"The princess is not there?" Zhengzhou asked seemingly confused

"From the time the Qin third young miss visited they say the empress was gone. Even the emperor himself bestowed the request of the princess that day. So it seems like everyone is gathered in their house. For what reasons? I still don't know."

"En. Send men to the capital and buy the residence next to Qin manor. Let's stay there and watch for ourselves"

"Brother you mean to say--"

"Yes, we will be staying for the meantime. We cannot leave without verifying the existence of your fiancee. She needs to be safe at all times and it is your duty to take care of her. One day she will come with us and fulfill her role in the palace. As for the second princess Zhengzhou lure her out."

"Okay but--"

"I'll take care with the third young miss and see what she's planning. Everyone in her hands are important figures. Whenever she wants to throw the current emperor it is likely possible. But the heir who will sat at his throne is still unknown. I believe the Qin clan has a lot of say, since their origins are really powerful."
