The following day, Su Bin dispatched a messenger to deliver a message to the governor, informing him of their imminent return to Meijiang Prefecture City.
Given Qin Zhenzhen’s reliance on the governor for her affairs in the provincial capital, it was prudent to notify him of their departure. Maintaining a respectful demeanor was also essential.
Shortly after their carriage departed, a covert guard discreetly slipped a note to Su Bin.
After perusing the message, Su Bin instructed the coachman, “Pick up the pace.”
“Of course!”
The carriage, which had already been moving briskly, now sped up even further.
Inside the carriage, the passenger’s balance was slightly disrupted.
Su Ning leaned against Qin Zhenzhen.
Perplexed, Qin Zhenzhen inquired, “What’s happening? Are we being pursued by wolves?”
Su Bin smiled wryly and replied, “No wolves, but there’s a predicament.”
Furrowing her brow, Qin Zhenzhen questioned, “What kind of predicament?”
Su Bin handed the note to Qin Zhenzhen.
Upon reading the contents, Qin Zhenzhen seethed with anger.
It appeared that Su Bin had received a secret letter some time ago. The governor had personally appeared and presented two beautiful maids to Su Bin.
It was evident that this scheme was concocted by the Crown Prince.
The Crown Prince must have believed that Su Bin would accept the two maids gifted by the governor. Subsequently, he intended to exploit these two beauties to disrupt the relationship between Su Bin and Qin Zhenzhen.
No wonder Su Bin had decided to depart for Meijiang Prefecture City this morning.
When the governor sent someone to send the maid to their residence, they had already set off.
However, the governor was persistent. He had dispatched a man to pursue them.
It was likely that the man was instructed to convey to Su Bin that he should wait in the carriage with the two beautiful maids.
This explained why Su Bin had ordered the carriage to accelerate; he regarded the two beauties as a source of trouble.
Nonetheless, he couldn’t afford to disrespect the governor. His only recourse was to ensure that they couldn’t catch up.
But would they really send these beauties all the way to Meijiang Prefecture City?
Qin Zhenzhen addressed Su Bin earnestly, “This isn’t a big issue. Two beauties are just two more mouths to feed.”
Su Bin’s expression soured, and he sounded somewhat aggrieved. “Wife, do I hold no place in your heart at all?”
“You don’t mind if someone bestows a beauty upon me?”
“The crux of the matter is that this gift comes from the governor. Not only are they spies for the governor, but they’re also instruments intended to disrupt our relationship!”
In front of Su Ning, Qin Zhenzhen felt a tad uncomfortable and hastened to elaborate, “I haven’t finished yet.”
“What I mean is, if you’re agreeable, I can arrange for them to assist in the kitchen.”
“If the governor inquires, you can inform him that these two beauties don’t align with your preferences.”
Su Bin smiled with satisfaction.
“How could I not trust you?”
“Actually, I’ve contemplated this possibility for a while. I was merely concerned that you might misinterpret my intentions. Now, let’s execute your plan!”
“In the future, no matter who sends me beauties, I’ll accept them all and allocate them to my wife.”
“Those who possess good character and are willing to lead a simple life can become the wives of your subordinates.”
“I apologize if they don’t meet the criteria. We’ll assign them to more suitable roles.”
He had expected this outcome. It was unrealistic to assume that Qin Zhenzhen would be entirely indifferent to him.
As long as he took gradual steps forward, his wife’s heart would continue to draw closer to him.
Qin Zhenzhen nodded. “Of course.”
She was in agreement, essentially conveying to Su Bin that she had already embraced him.
Su Bin naturally recognized this and found himself in high spirits. “Wife, would you like me to reduce the carriage’s speed?”
“It’s your choice.”
Su Bin promptly decelerated the carriage..
