"This king doesn't like to drag mud and water." In the courtyard, Chu Yunxi looked down at the three maids kneeling on the ground, and said lightly, "This king gives you a stick of incense time to think about it, and after an hour, if you can't say anything suspicious, this king will not show mercy." ”

The three maids trembled and knelt in front of Chu Yunxi, their faces full of fear. On the way here, Jin Ci had already told them that someone had poisoned the tea and almost harmed His Highness. Thinking of His Royal Highness's usual strictness, the maids were all scared for a while.

"Jinci, look at them." Chu Yunxi said and went back to the room.

"Xi, are you too harsh when you do this? The people who started it were thoughtful, and these maids were too young to look like people who could do this. Taking in all the qiē in the courtyard, Xia Fenglan's eyes showed a touch of unbearability.

"Of course I know, it's not them." Chu Yunxi said. On the one hand, it is the reason why Xia Fenglan said, and on the other hand, there are no three people among the maids who betrayed her in her previous life.

"Why did you do that?" Xia Fenglan asked.

"Let people take advantage of loopholes and cause their mothers to get sick, no matter how you say it, it's their fault." Chu Yunxi said, "However, if you think I'm too strict, go and let them get up." ”

"Okay." Xia Fenglan nodded, and inadvertently met Chu Yunxi's cunning eyes, Xia Fenglan suddenly understood why Chu Yunxi was so strict with them. Chu Yunxi would rather bear a stern name on her back, and also ask her to show grace to her subordinates, so that these subordinates will be more loyal to her as a princess.

This person, who seems to be angry, is paving the way for her. Such a King Jing, how could she not be moved!

"Your Highness, is it worth it to Feng Lan like this?" Lowering her eyes, Xia Fenglan asked.

"It's worth it." Chu Yunxi didn't hesitate at all. Compared with Xia Fenglan's efforts in the previous life, this qiē is nothing.

"Xi, you're so nice." Xia Fenglan's heart warmed, and she took the initiative to lean into Chu Yunxi's arms.

Looking at the figure in his arms, Chu Yunxi hooked his lips and said, "In the past, there were princes of Zhou Youwang's Beacon Fire Opera, just for the Pomeranians to smile. Compared to him, I have only done very small things. ”

"That night, will it be for Feng Lan, the princes of the Beacon Fire Opera?" Xia Fenglan raised her head and asked.

"Yes." Chu Yunxi said, her eyes full of seriousness.

"If one day, Xi Zhen does such a thing for Feng Lan, Feng Lan will definitely leave Xi." Xia Fenglan lowered her eyes and said. She was pleased with this person's care and love, but she never hoped that one day, King Jing would lose his mind because of her.

"Feng Lan, I believe that there will not be that day." Chu Yunxi smiled and said, "Because, you're not a compliment, you will never do anything harmful to me, will you?" ”

"Xi, do you believe in Feng Lan like that?" Xia Fenglan said.

"No, I believe in my own vision." Chu Yunxi said, "The person I fancy is definitely not the kind of red face and troubled water. ”

Xia Fenglan blushed her cheeks, no longer answered, but walked to the door: "I, I'll go see those maids." ”

"Heh," Chu Yunxi chuckled, she liked Xia Fenglan's shyness more and more.

As soon as Xia Fenglan walked in front of the maids, Chu Yunxi then appeared.

"Get up." Glancing at the maids who knelt down with a stick of incense, Chu Yunxi said, "Today, for the sake of the princess, this king will let you go, if there is a next time, it will not just kneel a stick of incense." ”

"Thank you, Princess, for your grace." The maids kowtowed to Xia Fenglan.

Chu Yunxi hooked her lips and looked at this scene with satisfaction, these maids, after receiving Xia Fenglan's favor, will definitely serve them wholeheartedly in the future.

"Let's all go back to work." Xia Fenglan said.

The maids saluted and departed.

"Your Highness," Jin Ci began, "before I came, Jin Ci asked these maids, and it is said that the firewood outside the kitchen yesterday caught fire for no reason, attracting many people in the kitchen. Don't Your Highness think it's too much of a coincidence? ”

"Do you think this is a deliberate movement created by the person who started it in order to make it easier?" Chu Yunxi raised her eyebrows and looked at Jin Ci.

Jin Ci nodded, and took out a handkerchief, which had some red things in it: "Your Highness, please take a look." ”

"This is, Red Phosphorus?" Chu Yunxi glanced at it, touched his chin and pondered, "A few days ago, for the sake of private salt, a lot of flammable red phosphorus was indeed put in the house. Now, who is keeping this phosphorus? ”

"Your Highness, it has always been kept by Mo Lan." Jin Ci replied.

"Mo Lan has always been careful in doing things, and there should be no problem." Chu Yunxi thought for a while and said.

"Jinci, who purchased all these red phosphorus?" Xia Fenglan thought for a moment and asked.

Yes, except for the custodian, only the purchaser is likely to leave some red phosphorus around. Xia Fenglan asked a question, but reminded Chunxi.

"Feng Lan, you're so smart." Chu Yunxi cast an approving glance at Xia Fenglan.

Xia Fenglan's cheeks flushed slightly.

"I remember, it was Ruan Xiang who brought people to purchase." Jin Ci said, "Your Highness might as well call Ruan Xiang to inquire." ”

The name "Ruan Xiang" appeared in Chu Yunxi's mind again.

A glimmer of light flashed in Chu Yunxi's eyes, Ruan Xiang, she had forgotten about this woman. thought that if she was removed from her position and deprived of her "Chu" surname, she would be more peaceful. Unexpectedly, it turned out that Ruan Xiang had already betrayed her so early.

"Jinci, don't alarm her yet." Chu Yunxi said, "First order someone to find an opportunity to search Ruan Xiang's room. If she did it, there must be something in her room that doesn't belong to her. ”

"Your Highness thinks it's her?" Ruan Xiang is a person, Xia Fenglan is still a little impressed.

"Not to feel, but to affirm." Chu Yunxi said.

With a stick of incense, Jin Ci presented a piece of jade pendant, fine jade, fine workmanship, and it was not something that a maid could get.

Chu Yunxi played with the jade pendant in his hand, and the corner of the jade pendant was also engraved with the word "Chao".

"What a sow discord." A flash of brilliance appeared in Chu Yunxi's eyes.

The name of the King of Jin is Chu Yun Dynasty, the purple clay pot, and the word "Chao" jade pendant, any of which point to the King of Jin. King Xing is using this matter to provoke her and King Jin.

"Feng Lan, do I really look so stupid?" Chu Yunxi looked at Xia Fenglan with a hint of helplessness in her eyes. Such an obvious planting, King Xing thinks, she can't see it?

"Yes, it's stupid." Xia Fenglan chuckled and said.

"Okay, you Feng Lan, you are getting more and more bold, and you dare to make fun of me." Chu Yunxi said, pounced on Xia Fenglan, tickling her itchy hole.

"Hah...... Is Feng Lan wrong...... Ha ha...... Spare Feng Lan...... "Xia Fenglan begged for mercy while hiding.

Enough of tossing people, Chu Yunxi hugged Xia Fenglan in her arms, looked at her red cheeks, and her heart moved: "Do you dare?" ”

"Don't dare." Xia Fenglan said.

"Feng Lan, what kind of person did you think I was before you married me?" Chu Yunxi asked.

"Impulsive, irritable, and short-tempered." Xia Fenglan hesitated for a while, then added, "...... Infatuated with Xiao Qi. ”

"Heh," Chu Yunxi said with a smile, "Feng Lan, are you jealous?" ”

Xia Fenglan blushed and stopped talking.

"Hearing you say that, my previous stupid image is really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people." Chu Yunxi touched his chin and said, "No wonder King Xing would do it so obviously." ”

"Jin Ci, prepare the carriage, this king is going to enter the palace." Thinking of something, he put away the jade pendant in his hand, and Chu Yunxi said.

"Your Royal Highness, in this matter, all the evidence points to King Jin, even if you tell the emperor that it is King Xing, the emperor will not believe it." Xia Fenglan persuaded.

"Who said I was looking for my father?" Chu Yunxi raised her eyebrows, and a hint of wisdom flashed in her eyes, "When I entered the palace, I naturally wanted to find the queen mother." Since King Xing decided that I was stupid, how could I not show him stupidity? Moreover, this is a good opportunity......" The corners of Chu Yunxi's mouth rose slightly, evoking a calculating smile.

"Opportunity?" Xia Fenglan thought about it, but she didn't understand, so she had to ask.

"Feng Lan, do you remember what I said to you that day in the mother's harem. The humiliation you received in the Fengqi Hall that day, this time, I will definitely get it back for you. Chu Yunxi said.

The events in the Queen's Palace that day flooded back into memory. She thought that Chu Yunxi was just talking casually, but she didn't expect that she would always remember it. The emotion in her heart was almost overflowing, King Jing's kindness to her surpassed all her imagination, so good that she wanted to cry.

"Feng Lan, I said, I will take everything about you to heart." Looking directly at Xia Fenglan, Chu Yunxi imprinted a gentle kiss on Xia Fenglan's forehead, "Okay, wait for me at home obediently, I'll go back as soon as I go." ”

"Hmm." Xia Fenglan nodded obediently.

Turning to leave, Chu Yunxi no longer concealed the ruthlessness in his eyes.

Queen Mother, Jinlan, it's time to pay the price!
