Nanny Yun and Fu Dong couldn’t go against Zheng Nianru’s wishes and had to hastily prepare a carriage, racing towards the Crown Prince’s Mansion.
The carriage was very cold, so much so that there wasn’t even time to bring a hand stove, yet Zheng Nianru scarcely felt it.
Zheng Nianru knew that Zheng Congyuan was plotting something, matters she had never understood in this lifetime—obscure and indiscernible. When she tried to contemplate them, everything was chaotic and disorderly. As she was not adept at such matters, naturally, she couldn’t spot anything amiss.
