Fuck to Death the Villains (H)

5 The Garden is a Good Place

As luck would have it, Ren Yue was one of the people who were asked to tidy up the flower garden the next day.

He has come to know over this period of time that servants like them do not have any special positions. Basically, they move wherever they are needed and go wherever their master tells them to.

But it is strange for him to think that a prince who is not only plotting a rebellion but also being inexplicably slept with a man, instead of doing his business, has the mood to care about the flower garden. Isn't the thought process of the ancients strange?

While walking on the road, Ren Yue heard two maids gossiping.

"You don't know, yesterday the prince smashed a whole set of Concubine Xiao's favorite tea sets, and the noise was heard clearly outside."

"You said everything was fine, why would the prince be angry?"

"How dare we guess what the prince is thinking..." Glancing at someone walking across from her, the woman lowered her voice a little, "But the prince was going to stay there, but he got angry and left without saying a word. Concubine Xiao has had a hard time during this period."

"I was wondering why Aunt Mei, who doesn't usually go out much, rushed to Concubine Xiao's place today. It seems like she went to see a joke..."

"Hush...keep your voice down. If someone gets to Concubine Xiao's ears, we'll be in trouble."

The sound gradually faded away, and Ren Yue turned around to watch the two maids disappear around the corner.

[Hey, this is different from what we agreed on. He pretends to be gentle and kind outside, but why is he getting angry at a woman?]

Ren Yue complained to the system.

"How should I know?"

After thinking about it, the only thing that could make King Heng'an lose his composure is the matter of seizing the throne. However, the progress of the mission is very clear, and there is no deviation in his plan to seize power, and it is going on well.

Could it be... ?

You're no longer good with women after just doing it once?

I have to say that Ren Yue unexpectedly guessed the truth.

The flower garden is a separate courtyard in the corner of the palace. Although it is not large, it is exquisite. Although Li Jingming thinks it has been abandoned over the years, it is still several times better than the garden outside.

The servants naturally didn't know how to take care of the garden, but there were professionals to deal with these problems. All they had to do was replant some flowers, loosen the soil and water the garden on a daily basis, and trim the overly lush branches and weeds - in short, it was hard labor.

It's hard to say which is better, being a gardener or a sweeper...

But when he heard that it was King Heng'an who personally ordered to clean up this courtyard, Ren Yue felt that this was a good job. Since that night, the security measures for Li Jingming's room and study were too strict, and he didn't find a second opportunity to do the same. Since King Heng'an wanted this courtyard, he would definitely come here in person. As long as he could meet him, there would be a chance.

A few days passed and Li Jingming really came, but his arrival caught Ren Yue, who was squatting on the ground pruning branches, off guard.

Another servant beside him raised his head when he heard the footsteps, and immediately dropped the shovel in his hand in panic, and knelt respectfully. It was the first time for a small figure like him to meet King Heng'an, but there was only one nobleman in this courtyard, and his identity could be seen at a glance from his clothes and demeanor.
