"Summon the guard to see me!"
She opened the door and gave the order, while slipping the key back into her sleeve.
She only had this one chance tonight, so she had to prepare early for success in one fell swoop. Tomorrow, when Prince Rong returned, this key must be quietly returned.
The guards arrived quickly, the same two from last night. She instructed, "Pass down the orders, tonight I'm going to the Buddha hall for chanting. Call more guards to guard the Buddha hall."
The Buddha hall was not far from the ancestral temple, using it as a pretext to first visit the Buddha hall would make the evening's actions more convenient.
The guards going to the Buddha hall was the norm in the Prince Manor.
However, by dusk, Lian Rong heard the news and informed Xu Yin, who was strolling in the garden.
"You're saying that the Prince, who hasn't left the house for days, was invited out by Song Yi today, and even sent a message before dark that he wouldn't be returning to the manor?
