Father, who is both a heir and a descendant, is still biased; the bound system has gone berserk.

After leaving the prefectural government office, the Crown Prince asked Ying Yufu, "Fu'er, what do you think of this Mingzhiyuan?"

Ying Yufu thought for a moment and said, "There is some Ayu."

The crown prince nodded and said, "Indeed."

As he spoke, he looked at Young Master Jiang standing to the side.

Young Master Jiang immediately said, "Your Highness, don't look at me. You were the ones who introduced me. I'm usually very low-key."

The crown prince looked away in disgust.

Back at Tongfu Inn, Chong'er immediately ran over to Ying Yufu and told her that the girl was still asleep.

Ying Yufu nodded and went to take a look inside Zhuang Yuluo's room.

Zhuang Cuiluo had already washed herself clean and even burned incense.

Chong'er said, "Your Excellency, you don't know how hard it is to wash off the fish and shrimp smell from this girl's body. She's been washed three times and the smell is still there. I had no choice but to have some incense burned on her."

The incense used is calming and has no harmful effects on the body.

Ying Yufu nodded and said, "Thank you for your trouble. Take this and buy some snacks!"

Ying Yufu tossed a silver ingot to Chong'er.

"Oh, Princess, you're so kind!" Chong'er exclaimed happily, hugging the plump silver ingot and grinning foolishly.

Ying Yufu glanced at her, "Chong'er, Princess, I haven't been short of your money, have I?"

Chong'er shook her head repeatedly: "I don't need anything, but I still like seeing silver."

Ying Yufu smiled and the two of them, mistress and servant, chatted and laughed as they left Zhuang Cuiluo's room.

After they left, Zhuang Cuiluo's fingers twitched slightly, and after a moment, she opened her eyes.

Seeing the unfamiliar room, her eyes became glazed and unfocused, and then she closed them again.

Ying Yufu and the others also rested.

When the night was deep and quiet, Ying Yufu, Shangguan Fei, and Wushuang quietly left Tongfu Inn and headed to the Meng residence.

Watching the three figures depart, the Crown Prince stood by the window, quite sorrowful. [Little Dragon, Fu'er went out without me; does she no longer love me?]

The Heavenly Dragon System gloated, [Host, relying on your looks to please others will eventually lead to being disliked. You should think about how to become the overlord of the world.]

The Crown Prince said quietly, "Little Dragon, you seem to have forgotten that I am destined to be the future emperor. As for being the overlord of the world... I have no interest in that."

"Ugh! You're so pathetic!" Xiao Long said angrily.

"Little Dragon, why don't you take me out? I want to go with them too," the Crown Prince said.

[Hey! I knew you were being so polite to me today, you need something from me!] Tianlong System scoffed.

Crown Prince: [Don't you want to go out and see the excitement?]

Tianlong System: [Let's go, let's go together!]

The little dragon appeared, took the prince into the air, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Young Master Jiang sneaked out of his room and went to Young Master Qi Yan's room.

"Qi Yan, the Crown Prince and the others have all gone out. I've missed you so much these past few days!" Young Master Jiang pounced on Qi Yan's bed.

Qi Yan was about to fall asleep, but was woken up by his sudden movement, and felt utterly hopeless.

"Qi Yan, hurry up and satisfy this young master, or the crown prince will come back again soon!" Young Master Jiang was quite impatient.

Qi Yan's mask of pain—he's so tired!

But there was nothing they could do but brace themselves to deal with Young Master Jiang. Just as the two were getting into a heated argument, the door to the room was quietly pushed open again, and a graceful woman walked in.

The woman froze in place when she saw the scene on the bed.

Young Master Jiang turned his head and glanced at her. "Oh, it's Wenqin. You wait there for a while."

Wenqin lowered her head and stood there waiting.

After Young Master Jiang finished, he called out, "Alright, Wenqin, come and help me clean up."

Wenqin went forward to help Prince Jiang wash up, while Qi Yan lay silently on the bed with his eyes closed and his face expressionless.

"Hiss, what a messy relationship." Rong Qing and Yu Li sat on the roof beam. Yu Li was expressionless, while Rong Qing wore a pained expression.

He felt sorry for that young master Qi Yan.

That Young Master Jiang only cares about his own pleasure and doesn't care at all about Young Master Qi Yan.

Yu Li's eye twitched. "This is utterly absurd."

Why did Rong Qing drag him over to watch the show in the first place? He must have lost his mind.

Meanwhile, Ying Yufu and the other two went to the Meng residence.

Meng Wanli still had a fever and had been unconscious for most of the time.

The little maid was terrified and mustered her courage to escape from the woodshed, but she was caught by the servants of the Meng family as soon as she ran out.

"Sir, this little maid tried to escape, but we caught her," a servant said menacingly.

"Lord Ming, I didn't mean to run away. I just want to go out and get medicine. My young lady has a high fever. Please, sir, have mercy and let me go out to get medicine for her."

The little maid ran over and kowtowed repeatedly, her forehead soon turning blood red.

Ming Zhiyuan looked at her silently for a while, then said, "Take her back and keep a close eye on her. Don't let her run away. Recently, some special people have come to Anzhou City. The Meng family's affairs cannot be spread."

"Yes, sir!"
