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

Ying Yufu glanced at the insect, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes.

That silly girl, Chong'er, her little thoughts are written all over her face.

She said, "Alright, then I'll do as you say. Keep Miss Zhuang here, and you can take her with you from now on."

"Yes, Princess!" Chong'er's eyes sparkled.

She was initially a little annoyed, but when she heard that the princess had entrusted Miss Zhuang to her care, she felt like she was the eldest, and Miss Zhuang wanted her to take care of her.

Upon seeing this, Zhuang Cuiluo's face lit up with joy. She immediately knelt down before Ying Yufu again, saying, "Princess, Cuiluo thanks you for taking me in. I will do my best to repay your life-saving grace."

After saying that, she looked in the direction of the insect and said, "Sister, Cuiluo will definitely learn from you!"

The little insect was immediately flattered by being called "sister".

She said, "Okay, as long as you follow my instructions carefully, I will guide you well."

Zhuang Cuiluo's face was full of gratitude.

"Chong'er, find some clothes for Cuiluo to change into. We'll go out for something to eat later," Ying Yufu instructed.

Chong'er said, "Princess, please don't worry."

When Ying Yufu went outside, she saw that everyone was there. The Crown Prince was sitting in the main seat, while Shangguan Fei and Wushuang were standing by the window, one with her arms crossed and the other staring out the window.

Not only them, Rong Qing also stood at the other window, staring outside.

There was some noise coming from outside.

Curious, Ying Yufu walked over and looked outside, only to see the yamen runners searching house to house.

Ying Yufu raised her eyebrows slightly, and immediately understood.

Shangguan Fei smiled and said, "The government is arresting two fugitives, two women."

Ying Yufu raised an eyebrow and looked at Meng Wanli, who was sitting quietly to the side.

Meng Wanli's expression was relaxed. She only now truly realized that she had actually escaped the Meng family's woodshed that had tried to kill her.

Accompanying the Crown Prince and Princess Anguo to the capital, regardless of whether she can still marry into the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, is something she must do: confront the Meng family's hatred towards her and uncover the truth behind her parents' deaths.

Soon they saw the officials enter Tongfu Inn, but they were not there to search it. Instead, they very respectfully handed a note to the Flying Tigers guarding outside.

"This is an invitation from my master to the Crown Prince of Qinjiang. A banquet will be held at the manor tonight, and we would like to invite the Crown Prince of Qinjiang to join us for a drink."

The official spoke very politely.

The Flying Tiger Army accepted the invitation and said, "Alright, the invitation will be forwarded to His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Yes, thank you." With that, the officer left and then called his companions to continue searching for the fugitive.

Fei Hu came in and handed the letter to Ying Yu Fu.

Ying Yufu smiled and said, "Perfect timing, the opportunity has come knocking."

They were looking for an opportunity to investigate the so-called longevity technique at Akinohara's residence when Akinohara himself delivered the opportunity to their doorstep.

That evening, Young Master Jiang and Miss Jiang led a group of people to the Mingzhiyuan residence.

"Oh, Your Highness, it is an honor for my humble abode to have you visit! Please come in!"

Akinohara was very enthusiastic.

Young Master Jiang was very accommodating and chatted with him in a very friendly manner.

Ying Yufu, the prince dressed as a merchant from the Hu family, Rong Qing, Wushuang Shangguan Feiyu Li and others followed behind Young Master Jiang and Miss Jiang.

The banquet at the Ming court was lavish, with singing and dancing to entertain the guests. After several rounds of drinks, the Crown Prince said he had a stomachache and needed to go to the latrine.

Ying Yufu followed along.

Seeing them leave, Mingzhiyuan smiled and instructed his servants to lead the way.

Once Ying Yufu and the Crown Prince were outside, they had the servants from the Ming Palace show them around.
