Chapter 752: Su Ji is Going to Cause Trouble!
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Xu Mingzhi returned home earlier than expected, as if she had never been to Bian Tong’s place.
Bian Tong’s courtyard was filled with oddities. She had noticed it from the moment she entered, but to her, as long as she could find her daughter, nothing else mattered.
She changed into her shoes and entered the house. Her high heels had scratched her ankle again. She only took a glance and did not even bother to frown.
The original owner had already gone downstairs.
She asked Aunt Wu to rest first while she stayed in the living room. She did not expect her mother to come back so soon. There was only one floor lamp in the living room. The shade was beige, and the light was very warm.
She sat on the sofa under the light, wearing pajamas. It was the one that Su Ji usually wore the least. She liked it quite a bit.
She was doing some small crafts in her hands, and there were a few shoes on the ground beside her.
Now that she knew who she was, Xu Mingzhi didn’t know how to face her.
She wanted to go upstairs, but she noticed that there was a pair of high heels on the floor that she usually wore to the office.
“What are you doing?” Xu Mingzhi asked.
The original owner paused for a moment, tore off the tape in her hand, quickly glued the last one, and then placed it on the ground. “I…The double-sided tape isn’t strong. If you don’t like it, I can take it off. It won’t damage the shoes…”
Her voice wasn’t loud, and she spoke carefully.
Xu Mingzhi frowned and walked over.
Her fingertips lifted the pair of high heels to take a look. In the next second, her expression froze.
The original owner attached to the sole and heel of each pair of high heels with a thin, trimmed sponge.
Xu Mingzhi saw that some of the female employees in the company would do the same. They said that after this treatment, high heels would be very comfortable to wear and their feet would not be easily worn out. However, she had never cared about trifles and would never do such things.
Xu Mingzhi said, “rest early if you have time. Don’t do these meaningless things.”
The original owner pursed her lips.
Her subconscious expression made Xu Mingzhi’s heart ache.
“I…” Xu Mingzhi paused and said unnaturally, “I’m worried about your health.
You’ll be going to the hospital tomorrow. It’s good for you to rest more.”
The original owner raised her head again and looked at her standing outside the light circle of the floor lamp. Although there was no obvious smile on her face, her tone was gentle. The original owner also smiled. “Mom, I feel so happy now.”
Xu Mingzhi squeezed her hands.
In the Great Shang.
In the dead of the night, the cooing of pigeons came from outside the window.
Su Ji was still thinking about Old Master Bian Guanshi.
Then, she was attracted by the voice and followed it.
Under the candlelight, she saw the carrier pigeon outside the oil-paper window.
Its entire body was snow-white, and only its head and the tips of its wings were covered with light gray feathers.
It moved its head agilely, its two claws moving around outside the curtain.
“Coo, coo.”
“Coo, coo.”
It was the carrier pigeon that she used to communicate with her bestie.
In order to hide it from the public, the carrier pigeons came at this time of the night.
She pushed open the window and the carrier pigeon looked at her agilely. Then, it flapped its wings and flew to her shoulder. Su Ji tilted her head just in time to rub against its furry head.
“Coo…”
The carrier pigeon let out a comfortable sound.
In less than half a month after she returned to the Great Shang, Su Ji had already received two letters.
The first time she came, the carrier pigeon was a little excited to see her.
It seemed that it had never come to the palace in the past year.
In the past, she would usually write to her bestie once a month.
It was inevitable that it was more frequent recently.
In the last letter, she had mentioned her pregnancy. In this letter, the other party had sent her a lot of precautions during pregnancy.
Su Ji leaned back in the chair and finished reading the letter under the candlelight. The corners of her lips curled up into a smile of admiration.
What a dog!
If she didn’t already know that she was Prince Huai’s fake identity, she would still be kept in the dark by him!
Looking at the handwriting, it was completely different from the usual vigorous handwriting on memorials!
Looking at his gentle and virtuous words, he had already written more than 200 words on why one should not be greedy during pregnancy. Who would have thought that this was the cold and silent Prince Huai??
Su Ji quickly folded the letter into a thin piece of paper and removed the cover of the candle. As usual, she burned the letter so that no one could say anything about it.
She stepped out of bed, and the carrier pigeon flew up a certain height. She said, “Zhu’er, bring a pen and ink.”
Wu Zhu’er responded in a crisp voice, and in a moment, she brought in the Four Treasures of the Study.
When she saw the messenger pigeon, she smiled knowingly. “Did she send you another letter?”
Su Ji nodded and let her spread the Four Treasures of the Study on the table.
The carrier pigeon also landed.
“Go, go, go.” Wu Zhu’er smiled and chased him away. “You little thing, go play elsewhere. Don’t cause trouble!”
The carrier pigeon hopped around to avoid her and was very agile.
Coming from Prince Huai’s residence, even the carrier pigeon was so skilled.
Wu Zhu’er said, “you once said that she knows astronomy and geography. Her skin is fairer than snow, and her figure is excellent. Such a top-grade beauty was living in Prince Huai’s mansion, but no one else knew? Isn’t this strange? Could it be that Prince Huai…is hiding a mistress?
Su Ji took a sip of tea and sat behind Wu Zhuer, thinking about something. “Who knows?”
Wu Zhe’er looked back from the corner of her eye and then smiled. “Why don’t I help you investigate? Maybe I can find out her true identity.”
In her previous life, Wu Zhu’er had also said this. At that time, Su Ji said yes, but after asking around for half a year, she had found nothing.
“You’re more concerned about my bestie than you are about me.”
Her casual words caused Wu Zhu’er’s actions of tidying up the desk to pause slightly.
But it was only for a moment.
Wu Zhu’er turned around and said with a serious expression, “I saw that you’ve been writing letters to her and that your relationship with her is quite deep. I was worried that her identity would be unclear and that it would be detrimental to Concubine Dowager, so I wanted to help you investigate…”
“I know.” Su Ji smiled beautifully. “I was just teasing you.””
Wu Zhu’er pursed her lips and turned her head away angrily. “I’m ignoring Your
Highness!”
She quickly cleaned up the table and left with her plate.
She had been with Su Ji since she was young. The two of them were master and servant in name, but they had long been sisters.
Therefore, she spoke more casually, as she usually did.
Su Ji smiled, closed the door, and sat in front of the table.
At this moment, her attention was on the reply that was about to be written.
This time, she had to think carefully about how to reply to her bestieShe spread out the paper and picked up the brush.
At the same time, the corners of her lips curled up into a sly smile as if she was about to cause trouble…
