Chapter 405: Master of the Harem
“Your Majesty, please forgive me. It was unavoidable for me to be disrespectful in order to save the princess. I didn’t expect Princess Anya to…”
The Crown Prince cleared his throat and Qin Feng, realising his mistake, quickly changed his statement: “At that time, I was indeed unconscious and knew nothing. I didn’t hear anything either. I only woke up after resting for a while.”
As he spoke, he carefully observed the reactions of those present.
The Crown Prince shook his head, the Empress remained calm and composed.
Calculating carefully, he almost forgot that these two were the Empress, the master of the harem, a skilled manipulator of palace intrigues, and the Crown Prince, the heir apparent, adept at competing with other princes and officials since childhood.
Playing dumb and getting away with it was like showing off a skill in front of these two.
‘I realise that these two have probably figured out my tricks by now. It’s ironic that I thought my acting was flawless.’
He glanced at Princess Anya, who also looked at him, pretending not to recognise him.
It had to be admitted that her acting skills were commendable, but unfortunately for Qin Feng, he had already confirmed her identity, rendering her acting useless.
