Outside the Princess' Mansion, Feng Wan pushed Dugu Wu, while the coachman unloaded two baskets of charcoal from the horse carriage.
"Sir, Lu Yin has been inside for the duration of an incense stick burning; shouldn't we go and have a look at the Princess Consort? What if Lu Yin isn't careful with his methods?"
Feng Wan sneakily glanced at the Princess' Mansion.
Through the wall, one could see the corner courtyard beside the west wing, which had a side door open to the southwest. Normally, the heavy lifting for the Princess' Mansion was done through here; very few people passed by, and it was over this wall that Lu Yin had climbed to enter the ear chamber of the west wing.
"Are you afraid that I'll lose the bet?"
Dugu Wu returned to Prince Shun's Mansion yesterday and relayed Feng Bailing's circumstances to Lu Yin.
Lu Yin flatly refused.
He was vengeful; that woman had forced him to walk for half an hour in the ice and snow!
