Chapter 668: Dressed up, nobody is more terrifying than 668.
After Ye Jiu finally returned home, Old Man Ye and He Shi were finally able to settle their anxieties.
All day they had been on tenterhooks, even suspecting that Prince Jing might contend with them for the child. Fortunately, it was just needless worry.
Prince Jing rode back all the way, but his heart was not as at ease as his facial expression suggested.
The thought that his precious daughter had been swapped out of the Royal Residence, and he had unwittingly raised another’s son as his own for so many years, would be difficult for anyone to simply dismiss.
Regardless of whether or not there was a conspiracy involved, Prince Jing had no intentions of letting any of the people involved off the hook.
As soon as Prince Jing dismounted, he happened to catch a glimpse of Liu Yunqing’s figure flitting by, and he called over someone nearby to ask, "Why is Liu Yunqing here?"
"Reporting to Your Highness, the Princess Consort summoned Young Master Liu to join us for dinner."
Prince Jing waved his hand, dismissing the servant.
However, he became puzzled.
Liu Yunqing had a good reputation in the capital city; it was a pity though, that he was merely a son born of the concubines in the Liu Family, which gave him a somewhat unfavorable status. Otherwise, Prince Jing wouldn’t mind supporting him a little.
Usually, those whom the Princess Consort associated with were the legitimate offspring of the Liu Family. Since when had Liu Yunqing caught the Princess Consort’s eye?
Taking a stride, Prince Jing returned to his own chambers.
Having been busy at the estate all day, and even though he did not have to lift a finger, the dusty atmosphere was unavoidable and some of it had splattered onto his clothes.
