Just when Qi Fangfei wanted to speak again, she was suddenly interrupted by the shopkeeper of the restaurant, who nodded and said to Qi Fangfei and Murong Xuanji: "The eldest princess, the ninth princess, there is only one last private room left in the shop, I don't know which of you two wants?" ”

"I want it!" Murong Xuanji and Qi Fangfei said in unison. After speaking, the two glanced at each other, and no one had any intention of letting anyone.

"This-" The shopkeeper also found a small spark between the two, and looked at the two of them with some embarrassment, Murong Xuanji and Qi Fangfei were both people who couldn't afford to offend, and the shopkeeper didn't know how to make a choice for a while.

"I came first, shouldn't I give me the private room first?" Qi Fangfei was the first to speak, and said with some meaning, "Isn't there anyone who doesn't understand the first-come, first-served principle?" ”

As soon as Qi Fangfei's words fell, Murong Xuanji took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and handed it to the boss, looked at Qi Fangfei coldly and said, "What if you come first, I paid the money, shouldn't I get it justifiably?" ”

The shopkeeper looked at the silver in his hand, and then at the two people who didn't want to let each other, and suddenly felt that his favorite silver was like a hot potato at this time, and he couldn't take it, and he couldn't take it.

Qi Fangfei didn't expect Murong Xuanji to have such a move, and she was a little angry, so she asked the shopkeeper angrily, "Boss, this restaurant is yours, who do you want to give the last private room to?" ”

"I, this-" The shopkeeper looked back and forth between Murong Xuanji and Qi Fangfei, no matter who he chosen, he would offend the other party, seeing that both of them were focusing on themselves, the shopkeeper's nervous head broke out in a cold sweat, and suddenly blurted out: "It's better for the two of you to go into the box together to rest." ”

As soon as the shopkeeper's words fell, the atmosphere suddenly quieted down, and the shopkeeper looked at the two people who didn't speak, and his mind was blank, and he couldn't remember what he just said, but looked at the two of them uneasily.

After a while, Qi Fangfei said, "I don't mind, I don't know if I will be minded." ”

Murong Xuanji naturally knew that Qi Fangfei's mouth was referring to herself, although she didn't want to stay in the same room with her, but if she said she minded at this time, then she would lose to her in momentum, and the proud Murong Xuanji would not bow her head and admit defeat to the person she hated no matter how unhappy she was.

"Of course I don't mind." Murong Xuan said with a smile.

Hearing that Murong Xuanji and Qi Fangfei said they didn't mind, the shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately returned the silver to Murong Xuanji and said: "Today, the two princesses can come to the shop at the same time, which makes the shop shine, let me be the east today, and invite the two princesses." I'll have you taken into the private room. ”

The shopkeeper immediately summoned a guy and told the guy to serve Murong Xuanji and Qi Fangfei well, and then quickly slipped away, if he stayed any longer, the shopkeeper would definitely die of nervousness.

When the door of the private room was closed, the three of them sat awkwardly at a table, and no one spoke, Lan Ling'er looked at the tense aura flowing between Murong Xuanji and Qi Fangfei, and couldn't help but hold her breath and carefully pay attention to the surrounding movements.

"The Nine Emperor Princesses are really interested, there is such a big thing going on in Murong Mansion, and you are still in the mood to go out shopping and buy snacks?" Qi Fangfei looked at the things that Murong Xuanji was carrying in the hands of the maid behind her, and said sneeringly again.

"Each other, each other." Murong Xuanji, who had calmed down, looked at Qi Fangfei coldly and said, "The eldest prince is still locked up in prison, and the queen is also under house arrest in the dormitory, isn't the eldest princess still in the mood to come out for tea?" ”

Qi Fangfei didn't expect Murong Xuanji to say this, and she was a little speechless when she was angry for a while, so she could only stare at Murong Xuanji fiercely.

"I also heard that it was the eldest princess who killed her relatives and took the initiative to expose the conspiracy of the eldest prince to poison the emperor, but I didn't expect you to be such a person!" Murong Xuanji spoke again.

Qi Fangfei heard the sarcasm in Murong Xuanji's words, especially the last sentence, which made people feel particularly uncomfortable, snorted coldly and deliberately pretended to be stupid and said: "I am a person from Beiming Kingdom first, and then a person from the Great Prince, how can I be indifferent to the fact that the Great Prince wants to be unfavorable to the emperor?" If it were the Nine Emperor Princesses, wouldn't they do it? ”

"There is no need to worry about the eldest princess, because I know that the Nine Emperors and the Great Prince are two different people, just as you and I are not two different people, the Nine Emperors will never do the kind of things that the Great Prince does not tolerate in heaven and earth, and I will not do what you will do." Murong Xuanji said meaningfully.

Qi Fangfei gritted her teeth angrily by Murong Xuanji's words, but she didn't know how to refute it, so she could only be angry alone, and after a long time, her emotions gradually calmed down, and she said unforgivingly: "Of course I'm different from you, I'm not like you are a broom star, I used to be outcast, and then after being recognized by Murong Mansion, Murong Mansion actually harmed Murong Mansion like this now, do you say you are a broom star?" ”

"The eldest princess, what you said was too much? Murong Mansion will become what it is now because someone framed it, and he doesn't care about Xuanji's affairs at all. Lan Ling'er couldn't listen anymore, and stood up to fight for Murong Xuanji.

"Ling'er, I'm fine." Murong Xuanji pulled Lan Ling'er to soothe her for a while, and then turned to look at Qi Fangfei and said, "Even if I am a broom star, it is better than you, a cold-blooded woman with a femme fatale, who will do anything to achieve her own goals, and even the people around you can take advantage of betrayal, which I am always inferior to you." ”

Qi Fangfei knew that Murong Xuanji was referring to her use and betrayal of Xuanyuan Che, but she didn't feel guilty at all, so even if Murong Xuanji said this, she felt indifferent.

"In the words of the Nine Emperor Princesses, this is my business, so I won't worry about the Nine Emperor Princesses." Qi Fangfei said coldly.

"Ling'er, I can't even drink tea with this kind of person, let's go." Murong Xuanji didn't want to talk to Qi Fangfei anymore, so she left with Lan Ling'er first.

Originally, Lan Ling'er wanted to go back with Murong Xuanji, but was politely rejected by Murong Xuanji, Murong Xuanji sent Lan Ling'er back to the Lan Mansion and sent Baoyue back to the mansion first, and deliberately took a detour to Murong He's prison where they were locked up, and saw that there were many people guarding outside the prison, Murong Xuanji wanted to go in to see Murong He, but from Li Miaoxin and Zhou Xiaolan's mouths, he knew that Xuanyuan Mo had issued an order not to allow anyone to visit the prison, if Murong Xuanji won the battle, those people would definitely not be his opponents, but Murong Xuanji had not lost his mind, she wouldn't let herself cause trouble to Xuanyuan Hao because of a momentary loss of emotional control, so she lingered outside the cell for a while before silently turning around and leaving.

Murong Xuanji, who returned to the mansion, saw a person coming out of Xuanyuan Hao's study, Murong Xuanji happened to pass by that person, and the fragrance left by that person made Murong Xuanji a little familiar, she turned to look, but only saw a figure walking away, Murong Xuanji was puzzled, and thought for a while before entering the study, and saw Xuanyuan Hao explaining something to the secret language, and after seeing himself entering, his conversation with the secret language was stopped.

"Master, I'll quit first." After saying hello to Xuanyuan Hao, he was about to leave, and when he passed by Murong Xuanji, he didn't forget to nod his head to her.

After everyone left, when only Xuanyuan Hao and Murong Xuanji were left in the study, Murong Xuanji asked with some curiosity, "Who is the person who went out of your study just now?" It doesn't seem to be a slave in the house. ”

"It's someone from the palace." Xuanyuan Haofeng said lightly, deliberately diverted the topic and said, "Did you go out with Miss Lan today to buy something back?" ”

"Nope." Murong Xuanji shook his head and said, hearing that it was the people in the palace who finally remembered where they had smelled the familiar smell just now, and blurted out and asked, "That person was from the queen's palace just now?" ”

Xuanyuan Hao was slightly surprised, he didn't expect Murong Xuanji to know that the person who went out just now was someone from his palace, but Xuanyuan Hao didn't deny it, nodded and admitted: "Yes, it's someone from the queen's palace." ”

"What are the people from the Queen's Palace doing here?" As soon as Murong Xuanji finished asking, he thought of a possibility, looked at Xuanyuan Hao with some surprise and asked, "Could it be that the queen secretly sent someone to find you?" ”

Xuanyuan Hao nodded and said, "The queen wants to cooperate with me, but I'm still hesitating." ”

"What are you hesitating about?" Murong Xuanji asked curiously. If the queen wants to cooperate with Xuanyuan Hao, it is nothing more than the two of them working together to deal with the three princes, and then the queen will not have to be placed under house arrest in the dormitory, and Xuanyuan Hao will be able to rescue his family.

"The queen and the three princes are only jackals and wolves, whether I cooperate or not, it is not very beneficial to me." Xuanyuan Hao snorted coldly and calmly analyzed, "The queen is now under house arrest by her father, and she has lost her power, and she has begun to think about how to regain her power as the queen, and looking at the entire court, almost all of them are the people of the three princes and the imperial concubine, she must find someone to help him, and my appearance happens to be the person she thinks can help her." ”

"I think the queen will let people come to you and not be so rash, she must have found a reason that you can't refuse, forcing you to agree." Murong Xuanji said bloodiedly for a while, and was appreciated by Xuanyuan Hao's eyes.

Xuanyuan Hao nodded, and couldn't help sighing and said: "The queen asked people to spread the word, saying that the eighth emperor brother was placed under house arrest by the third prince because he wanted to help Murong Mansion, and the eighth prince is a very filial person, so I can't die without help." ”

"What are these words? What does his filial piety have to do with your failure to save you? Murong Xuanji asked with some puzzlement.

"The queen is reminding me that the life of the Eighth Emperor Brother's mother Concubine Huangxian in the palace is not very satisfactory, and the Eighth Emperor Brother respects and filial piety to his mother very much, if she knows that her mother has been wronged in the palace, she will be very worried and sad, and I am close to the Eighth Emperor Brother on weekdays, and this time the Eighth Emperor Brother had an accident for me and Murong Mansion, so I can't be ungrateful and ignore the Eighth Emperor Brother." Xuanyuan Hao explained to Murong Xuanji in detail, and when he saw her thoughtful appearance, he asked curiously, "What are you thinking?" ”

"We can't help but repay the kindness of the Eighth Prince to us. But even if we want to repay the favor of the eighth prince, it is our own business, and we have nothing to do with the queen. Murong Xuanji looked at Xuanyuan Hao puzzled and said.

Xuanyuan Hao smiled faintly and explained again, "The reason why the imperial concubine was wronged in the palace was that she was reprimanded by the imperial concubine and found trouble, if we help the queen to regain control of the harem, then is there still a part of the imperial concubine to speak?" At that time, he can use the imperial concubine to contain Xuanyuan Mo's actions. The queen thought very carefully, and the only thing she didn't know for sure was whether I would agree. ”

"Would you say yes then?" Murong Xuanji blurted out a question.

"Do you want me to say yes?" Xuanyuan Hao asked Murong Xuanji rhetorically. "Do you think I should promise the queen about this matter and join her with Xuanyuan Mo? Even if I joined forces with her to pull Xuanyuan Mo down, she was not an easy character to deal with, but I didn't seem to be in a position to refuse. ”

Murong Xuanji looked at Xuanyuan Hao's expression for a while, but his expression never changed in any way, making Murong Xuanji unable to understand his thoughts.
