The East Palace has been so busy in the past two days that the prince has even withdrawn some of the guests, except for Zhu Shang, he basically does not interact with other guests, just to carefully prepare for the current wedding.

Fu Lixian's father, the crown prince Zhan Shi Fu Yun is the queen's cousin and has a great relationship with the East Palace. Therefore, the East Palace also attaches great importance to the relationship between King Su and Fu Lixian, and the prince does his best as he treats his own relatives.

It was on this joyous day that the prince received a secret letter from Ji Yao, he and Ji Yao had not been in contact for a long time, both of them knew what the other party meant in their hearts, in such an embarrassing situation, the prince did not expect Ji Yao to pass the secret letter.

The letter did not say much, but said that he wanted to make some things clear, but the prince hesitated for a moment, and went in the end.

Because there is still a trace of thought in his heart, he wants to squeeze the last bit of gold and silver treasure of the Chang family, not to mention that now that Ji Yao's second uncle is back, maybe things will take a turn for the better. In fact, whether things have taken a turn for the better, whether the Chang family will stand on the side of the East Palace or not, it doesn't matter to the prince at all, all the prince wants from beginning to end is money.

The richest man in Jinling, how can people resist such a temptation?

The place Ji Yao chose to meet was in a small teahouse run by the Chang family, and in the middle of the teahouse was a huge open space, and there were railings in the southeast, northwest, and north directions of the open space for viewing. Behind this railing, there is a small compartment created by the screen, and as long as you open the bead curtain, you can see everything that is happening on the opposite side.

Ji Yao originally built such a teahouse in order to have an open space in the middle, and she often invited the most famous flower drum troupe in Jinling City to perform here to attract popularity. Today is no exception, the teahouse is so lively that the people in the lattice must speak loudly to hear each other's voices.

Ji Yao sat in one of the compartments, quietly waiting for the arrival of the prince, before half an hour, the prince belatedly walked into the room, when he saw Ji Yao, there was no good look on his face, he said coldly: "You are looking for this king today, what do you have to say? If it is to continue to deceive this king, so as to make up some lies, then you don't need to say more, the matter has come to this point, and it is obviously not interesting to say those words again." ”

"I'm not talking to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince about this today, how can the Chang family say that they have also been helped by the East Palace over the years, no matter what, Ji Yao should always repay His Royal Highness the Prince's affection, and there will be a good show today, I want His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to watch it." ”

Hearing this, the prince subconsciously looked at the bead curtain, which was a faint stage, and many people in this teahouse applauded the people on the stage, but the prince retracted his gaze with disdain: "You didn't specially invite this king to watch the flower drum show today, this king thinks it's very boring!"

"No, what Your Highness wants to watch is a show that is a hundred times more exciting than this flower drum show. ”

Ji Yao said and took a delicate porcelain bottle on the table, and gently poured out some red herbs into the teacup in front of the prince, and then she raised her sleeve to take the teapot and slowly added it to the teacup.

The red herb was soaked in boiling water and immediately dissolved. The prince looked at Ji Yao puzzled, not understanding what she wanted to do, only to see Ji Yao snap his fingers slightly, and a person dressed as a junior immediately rushed in and asked softly, "What do you want from the eldest lady?"

Ji Yao pointed to the teacup in front of him, and said unhurriedly: "Send it to the Tianzi Guest Room." ”

Xiao Er answered, picked up the teacup and walked out, the prince's brows were tightly furrowed, he didn't know what the person in front of him was thinking, and his mouth was slightly open or closed with disdain. Ji Yao saw his thoughts, and he was still slow-moving at the moment, gently opened the bead curtain in front of him, pointed to a grid directly opposite and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, please see, who is that person?"

The prince followed Ji Yao's gaze and couldn't help but be surprised!

The person sitting on the soft couch opposite turned out to be Jiang Chuxiu, the prince didn't understand what Ji Yao meant, and invited him and Jiang Chuxiu to come to this teahouse at the same time, but he didn't say anything in a mysterious way, which made him extremely curious and subconsciously wary.

"What do you mean?" The prince pretended to have lost the last patience, and suddenly got up, thinking in his heart, in this way, Ji Yao would inevitably speak.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not in a hurry, he only needs to wait for half an hour to know. Ji Yao said and raised her sleeves to pour a cup of hot tea for the prince, who looked at her coldly and did not mean to take the tea.

He knew that Ji Yao had a lot of tricks, and he thought back that the East Palace had also been trapped by Ji Yao a lot these days, how could the prince be willing to fall for her again and again? He repeatedly warned himself that he couldn't believe the words of the person in front of him.

Today, she invited herself and Jiang Chuxiu to this teahouse, although she didn't know what she wanted to see, but there must be ghosts in it.

"Does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know what this is?" Ji Yao said and picked up a porcelain vase, which was the porcelain vase she used to make tea, and with the puzzled gaze cast by the prince, Ji Yao shook the porcelain vase in his hand and said with a smile, "This is saffron, legend has it that pregnant women eat saffron, and most of the fetuses are not guaranteed, especially in the first few months, if you eat saffron, there is basically no possibility of saving the fetus." ”

Recalling the appearance of Jiang Chuxiu picking up the teacup and taking sip after sip, the prince's heart beat like a drum, and he couldn't stop for a long time! He suddenly understood the purpose of Ji Yao's trip, and the prince suddenly got up and glared at Ji Yao viciously: "You are so vicious, you actually plan to kill the king's child with saffron, do you know that this is a big crime of raiding the family!"

Ji Yao shook her head lightly when she heard this, her calm gaze was more powerful to the prince's angry gaze, she raised her hand to signal the prince to sit down, and said unhurriedly: "If there is no fetus in this womb, then even if you eat too much saffron, there is no harm in it!

The prince frowned, opened the bead curtain, and cast his gaze again, only to see Jiang Chuxiu sitting alone at the table, very bored with a cup and drinking tea slowly, he really couldn't see that he was half uncomfortable.

"What the hell do you mean?"

The prince put down the bead curtain and turned around, staring at Ji Yao tightly, for fear of missing any expression on her face.
