Realizing her faux pas, Shang Xiaowan immediately changed her words and said, "Lord Wang, you can be regarded as here." ”

Xue Chongjian on the side looked at Shang Xiaowan in surprise, and kept looking at Li Longji, and finally turned his eyes back to Shang Xiaowan and asked, "You two have already colluded?" ”

"Don't worry, Master Xue, King Linzi is a friend and not an enemy." Shang Xiaowan saw Xue Chongjian's eyes glaring, and hurriedly stepped forward to grab his arm and said.

"Shangguan Wan'er is right, I'm here to cooperate with you." Li Longji said.

"Oh?" Xue Chongjian narrowed his eyes in disbelief.

"This is an opportunity for you to serve the court and make contributions."

"yes." Shang Xiaowan added from the side, "And what you have to do is very simple, just monitor Princess Taiping and report Princess Taiping's rebellious behavior to the prince." ”

Xue Chongjian suddenly raised his head and smiled: "Haha, I didn't expect that the King of Linzi was also a person who was greedy for life and afraid of death, I knew that today, why did I arrest Wu Youji and annoy Princess Taiping in the first place?" ”

Li Longji looked displeased, but still replied calmly: "I am for Li Tang Jiangshan." ”

Xue Chongjian smiled faintly, was suddenly stunned for a moment, and only came back to his senses for a while and slowly frowned: "So, you were testing me just now?" ”

"You're right." Li Longji calmly replied, "Because you are the son of Princess Taiping, I have to be like this." ”

"It's precisely because I'm his son that I'm more useful." Xue Chongjian didn't smile.

"Princess Taiping is also my aunt." Li Longji didn't wait for Xue Chongjian's voice to fall and immediately replied, "But her actions make me really unbearable, she secretly caused large-scale corruption in the imperial court, and also contributed to extravagance. As a royal woman, she doesn't know how to check and hook up, which makes the world laugh at our Li family. ”

Xue Chongjian was silent for a moment, and said: "I know what you said, I often quarrel with her because of political disagreements, she is always lonely and bent on going her own way, but ...... She was my real mother after all. ”

"I said that Princess Taiping is also my aunt, so I naturally won't embarrass her too much, but now that I'm in this position, everything she does must be stopped." Li Longji's eyes had indescribable firmness.

Xue Chongjian and him looked at each other, their eyes were scorching, Xue Chongjian nodded and said, "Okay, let's give three high-fives to show that we are allies." ”

The two of them stretched out their palms with a heart, Shang Xiaowan only heard the crisp sound of three "pop, pop, pop" explode in her ears, and the two looked at each other and smiled, making Shang Xiaowan feel that she seemed a little redundant at this moment.

Shang Xiaowan helped Li Longji, and Li Longji also freed her from the guilt as promised, but when Shang Xiaowan returned to Shangguan Mansion, the scene in front of her was no longer the same as before, the fallen leaves accumulated on the ground, the dust also accumulated in a house, and there was no figure of the maid, it was empty.

Shang Xiaowan thought about it carefully, she should be abandoned by everyone, who would continue to serve a criminal minister and be implicated, while thinking that Shang Xiaowan decided to clean such a huge mansion by herself, she couldn't clean it in one day, and there were second, third, and fourth days, anyway, she was now demoted from the palace and became an idle person.

Just when Shang Xiaowan was cleaning her room until night, she suddenly heard footsteps at the door, Shang Xiaowan looked at it vigilantly, and saw that the familiar Qianying shadow was slowly approaching with the footsteps, the figure she had seen once she had crossed. As soon as Chunhua saw that it was Shang Xiaowan, her eyes turned red all of a sudden, and her tears couldn't stop flowing, she rushed over and hugged Shang Xiaowan and cried: "My lord, it's really you, I passed by today and saw that the door seal was removed, I didn't expect you to really come back, you are finally back." ”

Shang Xiaowan was both moved and excited, and pulled Chunhua and sighed: "Sure enough, you are still the most loyal." ”

"My lord, I'll help you clean up, and I'll inform Ah Fu and Ah Gui tomorrow, and they will be happy to know that you are back."

Shang Xiaowan nodded heavily, with tears in her eyes: "Okay, good, thank you Chunhua." ”

That night, Shang Xiaowan was finally able to sleep peacefully, she fell asleep on the bed, and slept until the next day, when she was three o'clock in the morning, and did not get up until after lunchtime. Ah Fu and Agui apologized to her again and again, saying that they shouldn't take some things from the house, and returned some of them, saying that the rest had already been sold to subsidize the family.

"That's it, get up quickly." Shang Xiaowan waved her hand and said, after experiencing the pain of prison and these intrigues, she has long been full of intrigues.

Shang Xiaowan saw that the servants were busy, so she went out to buy food alone, and when she was walking around the West Market, a hawker's tomatoes attracted her, and the vendor boasted about how tender and juicy his tomatoes were, and said that he picked up one and handed it to Shang Xiaowan to try. Shang Xiaowan just felt dizzy in front of her eyes as soon as she approached her nose, and then felt that she was being helped to another place.

Shang Xiaowan was awakened by the stinging pain in her forehead, and when she opened her eyes, a wisp of blood was running down her forehead.

"Ahh Shang Xiaowan exclaimed in surprise, but was forcibly gagged.

Shang Xiaowan shouted indistinctly, "What are you going to do? ”

I saw the masked old woman in front of her with hideous eyes, holding a hairpin in her hand, the tip of the hairpin was facing Shang Xiaowan's face, she replied with a cruel smile: "Don't do it, just draw a few lines on your face." ”

Shang Xiaowan tried her best to break free, but found that she couldn't use her strength, she couldn't break away from the man behind her, and her legs were also soft, she shouted: "You dare? ”

"Yo, you're pretty good-tempered." The old woman smiled flirtatiously, "It's only because you seduce the wrong person." ”

"What are you talking about?" Shang Xiaowan looked puzzled, and immediately reacted that this was most likely the person sent by Princess Taiping to assassinate her, and Princess Taiping still did not let her go.

"I don't have time for nonsense." The old woman said as she grabbed Shang Xiaowan's thin shoulders with one thick arm, and picked up the hairpin with the other hand and carved another one on Shang Xiaowan's forehead.

Shang Xiaowan couldn't help but ask, "What do you want to do?" ”

"Don't do anything, just carve a flower for you and make your beautiful face more beautiful." The old woman said and carved it several times in a row, and Shang Xiaowan gritted her teeth in pain and broke out in a cold sweat.

Shang Xiaowan felt that she was powerless to return to the sky this time, so she could only be slaughtered there, thinking that her head was about to bloom, and she would definitely be ugly at that time, but she didn't expect Princess Taiping to have such a special habit, disfigured and disfigured, what kind of flowers to carve.

Just after the flower on Shang Xiaowan's forehead was completed, she was stunned by the man behind her and fell into the alley, her forehead still bubbling with blood.
