Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord
Chapter 898 Zhao Yin

Chapter 898: Chapter 898 Zhao Yin

The Emperor was thrilled after acquiring the services of Zhao Yin, the Onmyoji, and immediately sent someone to War Prince’s Mansion to notify Madam Wang.

The War Prince, Long Rui, had always been a significant concern for the Emperor, who could not wait to get rid of him.

War Prince’s Mansion.

In the study, War Prince Long Rui was handling official matters when Long Yi hurriedly reported, "Master, Miss Situ just visited Suxin Garden outside the city."

Ever since Master returned to the capital last time, he seemed transformed, his usually cold demeanor intensified, and his subordinates were instructed to keep an eye on Miss Situ at all times.

Long Yi realized that Master had finally come to his senses, having fallen in love with Miss Situ, a sentiment that probably started back in Mo Family Village.

"How many people went?" Long Rui looked up and asked.

"Several young ladies from prominent families, and a few young masters."

Long Rui tossed the book he was holding and stood up, "Let’s go and relax a bit. It’s rare for the Fourth Prince to be so generous, inviting so many for an autumn outing. He surely won’t mind my presence, and will be quite happy to see me."

Saying so, he strode out.

The corner of Long Yi’s mouth twitched, thinking to himself that the Master was shameless. People of the Imperial Family all avoided the Master, who would welcome him!

Though he thought so, he dared not voice it; the Master was very petty, and if he knew what Long Yi was thinking, he would surely make him suffer.

At the entrance of War Prince’s Mansion.

Madam Wang was dressed flamboyantly and was just stepping down from the carriage.

She encountered Long Rui rushing out from inside.

Her heart skipped a beat, but she forced herself to remain calm and approached with a sway of her hips, asking in a sweet voice, "Prince, where are you rushing to?"

Long Rui glanced at her coldly and said icily, "Where I am going is none of your business, is it?"

Madam Wang’s face stiffened, then she quickly plastered on a smile, "Concubine dares not."

"Hmph!"

War Prince gave a cold grunt and ignored her.

At the gate, several fast horses were already prepared by the servant boys. War Prince leapt onto one, settling firmly in the saddle, spurred the horse’s flanks, and shouted, "Drive...!"

The horse bolted out like an arrow from a bow.

Several guards swiftly mounted their horses and followed closely behind.

They were the Personal Bodyguards of the War Prince, responsible for his safety.

Since that incident, not only did the War Prince have visible guards, but numerous Hidden Guards also protected him discreetly.

These arrangements were made by Long Yi, as those seeking to harm the Master were too powerful. It was best to be cautious.

Madam Wang stood at the doorway, watching the receding figures of Long Rui and his party until they disappeared, then turned back and returned to the mansion.

Just now, the Emperor had secretly summoned her to the palace, handed her something, and instructed her to mix it in Long Rui’s food.

On the way back, she was troubled by this task! The Emperor’s orders must be carried out, but Long Rui never dined with his concubines. How to mix it into his food was indeed a big problem.

"Madam, you’re going the wrong way, our courtyard is not on this side." Lost in thought, Madam Wang didn’t even realize she was going the wrong direction until the maid timely reminded her, and she stopped in her tracks.

"Oh! I was preoccupied."

"You’ve been distracted ever since you returned, what is the matter?" the maid inquired.

"You shouldn’t ask what you aren’t supposed to know," Madam Wang suddenly snapped harshly.

The maid jumped in fright and dared not utter another word.

Though they always went out together, each time they reached the inn, Madam Wang would disappear without a trace, leaving the maid to wait in the room. After several Shichen Chinese Time, Madam Wang would reappear, and they would return to the mansion together. Hence, the maid had no idea where Madam Wang went or what she did.
