The Dramatic Crown Princess Wants to Poison Me!

Chapter 776: Chapter 737: Schemes (Part 3)

So, are those people truly determined to get what they want?

Xia Wenjin squinted, glanced around, and her eyes were drawn to the window over there.

This window was noticeably higher than those in ordinary houses. Xia Wenjin shook her head again; the design of this house really took all aspects into consideration.

With such a high window, even if someone realized something was wrong after inhaling two kinds of fragrances here and wanted to leave, they wouldn’t have the strength to climb out, would they?

The door?

No need to ask, the girl named Ling Dang must have closed the door from outside when she left.

So, was that man already hiding in the house, or would he come in through the door?

Princess He Ye was naturally involved, but for whom was Princess He Ye doing this?

Why target her?

They didn’t know each other before, and there wouldn’t be any contact afterward either!

A woman’s reputation ruined is as good as killing her. What a sinister, despicable, and vicious method!

Xia Wenjin took out a pill, put it in her mouth, and swallowed it. There were a few wardrobes in this house; presumably, people were hiding in the closets? There was still time, so why not pull them out and give them a beating first!

With this thought, she went to open the wardrobe door.

Outside, just as Xia Wenjin expected, after Ling Dang latched the door from outside, she lightly patted off non-existent dust from her hands, revealing a satisfied smile.

Then, she turned back to glance inside the room, showing a smile of disdain and contempt. She didn’t linger any longer, immediately leaving the door area, her footsteps hurriedly moving toward the right path, albeit there was no one there.

However, she seemed not to be looking for someone. She walked along the small path as if heading to the garden but stopped by a pool and took out a red string from her sleeve, tying it to a tree.

A not very obvious tree in an inconspicuous place, with an equally inconspicuous red string on it. Unless someone with intentions came looking, it wouldn’t be noticed.

Even if others discovered it, they wouldn’t know what it was for.

But because it was a red string, if someone in the know stood at the intersection on this side, they could see it.

After doing this, Ling Dang looked around, seeing no one, she smiled with satisfaction and left in a few brisk steps.

Over there, the noblewoman in yellow and the noblewoman in green surrounded Princess He Ye. The noblewoman in yellow probed, ”I heard that Miss Xia is the sister of the Eldest Young Master Xia!”

Princess He Ye replied indifferently, ”Just a cousin!”

The woman in green said, ”I heard the Xia Family values Miss Xia a lot!”

Princess He Ye laughed and said, ”That’s because the Xia Family has no daughters.”

The noblewoman in green whispered, ”Princess, will the Eldest Young Master Xia be angry and blame you?”

Princess He Ye snorted lightly and said, ”How could he? Isn’t this Princess considering her as well? She’s the niece of Prime Minister Xia, not a daughter. The people in the Capital City look up to her, but only to a certain extent. This Princess is giving her a chance to climb to higher status!”

The woman in the yellow dress laughed, glanced at the woman in green, and said, ”Such a good opportunity, if our Princess didn’t see her as the sister of the Eldest Young Master Xia, she wouldn’t have given it to her!”

The noblewoman in green suddenly realized and changed her tone immediately, ”Yes, I was really confused. The Princess is thinking of the Eldest Young Master Xia; if he knew, he would only thank the Princess. It’s me who didn’t speak well. Princess, please don’t be angry!”

These words brought a smile to Princess He Ye’s face. Thinking about last night’s events, she initially found it incredible, but later she thought it was an opportunity for her.

Her royal father and mother always treated her like a child, withholding many things from her, but she understood them well.

She did some things so others would owe her favors, which would be of great use in the future.

Besides, by facilitating this matter, the Eldest Young Master Xia would surely understand her good intentions in the future, realizing she did it all for his benefit.

As for those two noblewomen, their fathers didn’t hold high official positions, and others couldn’t curry favor with them. They have been following her due to her connection, attending such grand gatherings, willing to curry favor. They dare not leak anything.

At this moment, Ling Dang walked into the hall.

Princess He Ye took a step forward and asked, ”How did it go?”

Ling Dang replied, ”All done!”

Princess He Ye’s smile grew even more radiant. She wasn’t bad-looking, and with this smile, she had a bit of a flirtatious allure. It was great. She said to the noblewoman in yellow and the noblewoman in green, ”Later, call some more people, the more the better!”
