Rou'er's face dropped in utter grievance.
Why should she serve the prince?
Aren’t there maids in the main courtyard?
Ah Chun made a mistake, why should she bear the consequences?
It's all Ah Chun's fault.
The prince had treated the young lady so badly before, so she didn't want to serve him.
Although she was unhappy, Rou'er did not dare to go against the young lady's wishes, so she immediately went to get the medicine box and went to the main courtyard to 'work' as if facing a formidable enemy.
When Feng Xing saw it, he couldn't help but whisper: "Master's injury is not serious, please treat it carefully."
Who is willing to serve him?
Rou'er glared at him sullenly: "You're worried about him, why don't you find a doctor for him? Just talk but no actual actions."
Feng Xing was stunned for a moment.
He has been with his master for more than ten years, and no one in the entire palace knows his identity?
This little girl of the princess dared to talk back to him.
"I asked you to be more careful. After all, this is also the princess's order."
"You really can stand and talk without pain in your back."
"You're such a naughty slave——"
"Who are you scolding?" Rou'er glared.
She's not being naughty.
The young lady treated her like a sister, but this man dared to criticize her, and the young lady didn't even scold her.
Rou'er stomped him angrily, "Get out of the way. I'm going in to treat the prince's injuries. Good dogs don't get in the way."
"you!"
And stepped on him!
I am really spoiled by the princess!
-
The next day, early.
Ye Jinxiao got up and was awakened by the sound outside. When he opened the door, he saw that Rou'er was lecturing Ye Yiye, Erye San, Axia, Qiu and Dong.
What happened to Achun is a lesson to the past. If anyone else dares to have different intentions, the end will definitely be worse than that of Achun.
The six people did not dare to have second thoughts and expressed their sincerity.
Ye Jinxiao actually didn't care. Achun was interested. Even if Chu Yu accepted Achun, there would be no conflict of interest for her.
A quarter of an hour later.
Rou'er entered the room to wait on her, "Miss, you're awake."
Ye Jinxiao nodded, and after a simple wash, he had breakfast, sat at the table and meditated seriously on something, writing and drawing on the paper with the brush in his hand.
She was lost in thought.
Rou'er washed some fruits and brought them in. Seeing her distracted look, she couldn't help but smile and asked:
"What are you thinking about, young lady?"
Ye Jinxiao looked at the sixteen words on the paper and said, "I'm thinking about going home."
——The west of the wilderness, the north of the cold winter; the east of the morning light, the south of the abyss.
Southeast, northwest, and southeast correspond to the four directions, which might imply something, but she thought about it all night and couldn't figure it out.
The world is so big that it is impossible for her to go in four different directions at the same time.
The only explanation is that these four directions contain the secret method that can return to the modern world. Can she go back if she finds all of them?
But what exactly are you looking for?
She still didn't understand.
Rou'er said in a funny tone: "If you want to go back to Taifu's Mansion, can't you just go directly? Are you still thinking about it?"
Ye Jinxiao also smiled and touched her head: "When I come home, I may not be able to leave you."
"?"
What is the lady saying?
Why don't you understand it well?
Rouer is confused.
"Miss, the results of Dali Temple are out!" At this time, Ye Er quickly walked in and reported, "The matter of Xinya Theater has been found out."
Ye Jinxiao raised his head and said, "Say."
"Early this morning, Dali Temple decided on the outcome. Eleven officials including Mr. Zhang from the Food and Road Administration Department, Mr. Wang from the Appeasement Envoy, Mr. Li from Tongjian, etc., used the Xinya Theater to cover up the public. In fact, they secretly colluded and took bribes. The eleven of them formed an interest chain specializing in buying and selling official positions and providing cover."
The more than 500,000 taels of embezzled money hidden in Xinya Theater were all confiscated to the state treasury.
The eleven officials involved in the case copied and killed many of them.
"And we found out what happened nine years ago. Mr. Lu was framed by them because he accidentally touched their interests."
Now, things are coming to light.
Master Lu was cleared of wrongdoing, and Chunjing was finally able to clear her identity as the daughter of the guilty minister.
After hearing this, Ye Jinxiao only asked: "Isn't Xinya Theater related to the Zhenguo General's Mansion?"
Ye Er shook his head: "It doesn't matter."
"oh."
It seems that this general who governs the country is very capable, and he can control eleven officials to take the blame and clear himself.
"I know, let's go down."
At least Chunjing and her father Mr. Lu can regain their innocence.
As soon as Ye Er went out, the housekeeper came, "Princess, a secret message from Prince De's Palace."
"For me?"
"Yes." The steward held out the secret letter with both hands and said solemnly, "His Royal Highness King De said that this letter is extremely important and must be delivered to you personally. It must not be borrowed from other people's hands. Also, please burn it after reading it and do not leak it. .”
Ye Jinxiao's expression immediately straightened up.
King De had something important, so why didn't he go to Chu Yuci instead of going to her?
Did something happen?
She subconsciously wiped her hands on the hem of her clothes before taking over the secret letter with the seal of Prince De's Palace. Her expression was solemn, and even the air was a bit condensed.
Rou'er couldn't help but be nervous: "Miss, do you want to inform the prince?"
If something really happened involving the royal family, I am afraid that the young lady alone would not be able to bear the responsibility.
Ye Jinxiao looked at the letter, frowning in thought.
Her friendship with the second prince, King De, is not very deep. Last time he was born, he attended the birthday party, but other than that, she doesn’t have much friendship with him.
In addition, King De was gentle by nature, neither fighting nor grabbing, and making friends with everyone. With such a gentle temper, it was impossible for him to offend anyone.
What other important things could he have?
Ye Jinxiao couldn't make up his mind, and this letter was like a hot potato.
After thinking about it for a while, he stood up and said, "I'm going to find the prince."
After all, he is Chu Yuci's second brother.
She has no interest in their brothers' affairs and doesn't want to get involved. No matter what happens, she doesn't want to get involved.
Main courtyard.
When Ye Jinxiao came, he saw Feng Xing in the house and heard a few conversations:
"Master... the assassin last night was Yan Luo, the number one killer in the world... my subordinates found out..."
"Xiao'er!" Chu Yuci had sharp eyes and recognized her as soon as he caught a glimpse of her skirt.
Ye Jinxiao stood at the door, "Excuse me?"
"Don't bother me, I'm not busy at all."
Chu Yuci put his hand under the table and made a 'step back' gesture. Feng Xing saluted Ye Jinxiao and left immediately.
"It's rare for Xiao'er to come to me on her own initiative, why don't we have breakfast together?"
Ye Jinxiao walked in and said, "I've eaten."
Chu Yuci limped one leg and stood up unsteadily, "Then let's go for a walk."
"cold."
"That……"
"I have something to do with you." Seeing the man's beaming expression, as happy as if he had picked up millions, Ye Jinxiao interrupted him directly.
Chu Yuci was still very happy.
When Xiaoer comes to him for trouble, she doesn't go to anyone else.
Xiaoer is so nice.
Ye Jinxiao took out the secret letter from Prince De's palace, "This was sent by Prince De just now. He said it is very important and must be signed by me personally. I am afraid that something will happen to Prince De, so I came here to discuss it with you."
Chu Yuci frowned immediately. When he saw the letter, he seemed to notice something, and his expression became a little strange.
What important thing could King Deok have?
For him, the most important thing is...
"Xiao'er, take it apart and take a look."
"You tear it apart."
If something happened, she didn't want to be taken advantage of.
Chu Yuci looked at her vigilant look amusedly and said with a smile: "It's okay, you can take it apart and take a look. I'll be right next to you. If anything happens, I'll have full authority to handle it."
Ye Jinxiao raised his eyes, "This is what you said."
He smiled fondly and nodded: "Yes, I said so."
After receiving his assurance, Ye Jinxiao opened the envelope, took out the letter paper inside, and walked to the desk to read it with Chu Yuci.
But when I saw the contents inside...
Her expression froze on her face.
—— Dear fifth daughter-in-law, the Crown Princess is hosting a banquet this afternoon and inviting all the female family members to gather together. Please bring Princess De with you. Thank you.
"That's it?"
That's it?
Gone?
Chu Yuci suppressed a smile: "It should be that Princess De is in charge of King De's diet every day and does not allow him to eat and drink. He wants to take advantage of the banquet hosted by the Crown Princess to ask you to send Princess De away."
Send Princess De away, and no one will care about him, so he can take the opportunity to satisfy his craving.
"..."
He just wanted to carry Princess De on his back and go out to eat delicious food.
Is this something important that must be revealed in person?
Ye Jinxiao thought something big had happened and came to Chu Yuci cautiously.
I thought it was a bomb, but I didn't expect it to be a squib.
