Chapter 1470: 718 Tricky Princess (Second Update)
The arrival of the Jingzhao Residence’s delegation disrupted the climax of the grand opera, with guests grumbling in discontent, yet despite their complaints, with the Jingzhao Residence wielding an official document and a legitimate reason, even someone with Prince Ming’s status dared not openly demand their departure.
Prince Ming sat in a private room on the first floor, his face gloomy, “What’s going on? Why have people from the Jingzhao Residence come? Could they have detected my movements?”
A trusted guard replied, “It shouldn’t be the case. We’ve been careful all along, and besides, we haven’t done anything wrong; it’s not for the Jingzhao Residence to intervene.”
“Exactly, this prince is merely waiting for someone…”
Only the timing was terribly off.
With the Han Family having just encountered major trouble, for him to come out to the Opera House to handle affairs — who would believe he was there for business? Most would likely think he was out to chase love and seek pleasure.
Deeply troubled, Prince Ming fretted, “Will the man Father mentioned really appear? But why has there been no news despite waiting for so long?”
The trusted guard suggested, “How about… I first escort Prince Ming away and come back after the Jingzhao Residence’s people leave?”
Prince Ming frowned, “What if that person does come?”
The guard assured, “Even if he comes, it’s no cause for worry. The Jingzhao Residence is searching Tianxiang Pavilion; he won’t be able to get in. I’ll keep watch across the street, and if I really spot a suspicious person, I’ll interact with him.”
Prince Ming was tempted but hesitantly shook his head after a moment, “This matter has been repeatedly stressed by Father; he instructed me to personally bring the person back to the Crown Prince’s mansion. Forget it. I won’t go far; if he arrives, you come and notify me.”
“Yes!”
The guard opened the door, vigilant of the outside noise. At the moment, people from the Jingzhao Residence were checking every single guest, likely to confirm there were no traces of disguise.
Both men and women were searched.
Strange.
Prince Ming, with little experience in counter-surveillance, did not think to disguise himself with a mask and a bamboo hat, so he could only try to minimize his presence and leave through the back door.
