Faced with Yin Shanshan's scheming, Gao Zheng responded noncommittally, "Perhaps. But this is women's business. What does it look like for a man like me to get involved? So if the Crown Princess Consort asks, just say you saw it with your own eyes."
Without hesitation, Yin Shanshan went to find Shen Yunxi.
Shen Yunxi was surrounded by Lu Qianqian and others, watching a litter of wolf pups that the guards had captured yesterday.
Yin Shanshan recounted the situation, fawningly, "I swear it's absolutely true, Your Grace! I saw it with my own eyes! That wretched girl has a face full of seductive charm and a lithe, willowy figure. She must have seduced His Highness into the grove to… engage in shameful behavior while you were sleeping!"
Shen Yunxi's face turned ashen.
She had thought that the Crown Prince had refrained from approaching other women these past few days, but to think he had been hiding it from her all along!
She cast a resentful glare at Yin Shanshan.
