Chapter 726 - 723: Deep Relationship_1
Bai Jinxiu saw Fu Ruoxi off. Bai Qingyan slowly rested her elbow on the hidden pouch, lowering her eyes in deep thought. Why would Wang Qiulu go to King Liang’s mansion? Was it to avenge Liu Ruofu? Or... did he still want to support King Liang’s rise to power?
But if he wanted to do these two things, what did it have to do with Fu Ruoxi? Why did he lead Fu Ruoxi to the entrance of King Liang’s mansion and let Fu Ruoxi see him enter King Liang’s mansion with her own eyes?
Or was it Li Mingrui who made Wang Qiulu do this?

The Crown Princess Consort was giving birth, and the Crown Prince’s mansion was busy today.
Old Fang and Ren Shijie put on black cloaks and hoods, and together they quietly exited through the corner gate of the Crown Prince’s mansion. After ensuring no one was around, Ren Shijie helped Old Fang into a carriage that had been waiting outside the mansion.
After the two got into the carriage and sat down, the always cautious Old Fang lifted the curtain to look outside. After waiting for half a quarter-hour, he instructed the driver, "Go!"
Ren Shijie, sitting beside Old Fang, seemed a bit uneasy. "Old Fang, shouldn’t we inform the Crown Prince?"
Having been severely reprimanded by the Crown Prince earlier today, Old Fang’s face looked sullen and grim.
"Now that the Crown Princess Consort is in labor, the Crown Prince cannot be distracted. Moreover, we do not have Wang Jianghai’s son in our hands... if we just tell His Highness that Princess of Zhen sent someone to rescue the traitor Wang Jianghai’s son, Wang Qiulu, do you think he would believe us? His Highness now trusts the Princess of Zhen far more than us. He might even think that I am petty and cannot tolerate the Princess of Zhen!"
