Seeing my state, Shui’er couldn’t help but become anxious too, trying hard to remember while comforting me: “Madam, don’t be anxious. Let Shui’er think carefully. I definitely saw it somewhere!”
“But where? It’s clearly in my memory. Where is it? Let me think carefully…”
“Ah, I remember!”
The girl suddenly shouted, her expression somewhat excited: “I remember three years ago, the Crown Prince spent a lot of money to have someone specially make a mirror similar to what madam just described!”
“Really?” I immediately asked joyfully: “Do you know where that mirror is now?”
Shui’er touched her forehead, thinking carefully: “I remember, the Crown Prince originally planned to give this mirror to Miss Han, but before he could give it to her, she had already left, so…”
I subconsciously continued: “So, that mirror should still be in that guy’s room?”
Shui’er nodded: “That should be correct!”
But isn’t that guy’s room where I’m living now?
I carefully recalled the room’s furnishings and found no glass-like mirror, so I asked Shui’er: “Does your Crown Prince have any other rooms?”
Shui’er thought for a moment: “Besides the bedroom, the Crown Prince sometimes stays in the study, which has a small rest room. Could it be there?”
I immediately suggested: “Let’s go to the study and take a look?”
“Ah?” Shui’er let out a soft cry, her face full of concern: “Is this okay?
The Crown Prince has always disliked others entering his study.
I immediately patted my chest and guaranteed: “What are you afraid of with me here? If we’re discovered, I’ll just say I forced you to go. I’m the mistress of this prince’s residence. What place can I not go?”
I’ve been to the Cherry Blossom Garden, so what’s his study?
Besides, he didn’t pursue such a big matter as me running away from home, so I don’t believe he would do anything to me just for entering his study.
Shui’er had no choice but to follow me.
Fortunately, that guy wasn’t around. I had Shui’er keep watch outside while I sneaked in alone! Just looking for something, yet acting like a thief – how frustrating…
