"It's the opposite!" Xu Xiao'e rubbed her arms and scolded, "Yu Ruoxu, it turns out that this is how your Yu family taught you to treat your elders?" There is also a face that claims to be a scholarly family, I think the Yu family will lose in your hands sooner or later! “

Yu Ruoxu pursed her lips tightly, lowered her head, and didn't say a word.

Xu Xiao'e usually hated her taciturn appearance the most, but she couldn't help her, so she had to complain to Aunt Huang, "Auntie, you have to complain to the Queen Mother for me, the whole Yu family doesn't take me as a princess in their eyes, I really can't get by......"

Aunt Huang also felt that her head was big when she heard it, this princess had a "your Yu family", but now she is obviously a member of the Yu family. She thought for a moment and said, "Miss Yu, the princess is your elder after all, and this family matter is related to the diplomatic relations between the imperial court and the Nanyue Kingdom......

"What my aunt said is that if you are guilty." Yu Ruoxu frowned and admitted his mistake, looking well-behaved.

"You've been convicted of your sins every time, but when have you ever truly repented?!" Xu Xiao'e had already learned her tricks of yang and yin, and snorted disdainfully, "It's really thick-skinned!" “

"Princess, Miss, found it!" Mother Wu carried a small medicine bag into the hall, "Is this the red cinnabar?" “

Imperial Physician Wang stepped forward, opened the paper bag and looked at it, and said in a deep voice, "That's right." “

"Where did you find it?" Xu Xiao'e asked urgently.

Mother Wu glanced at her cautiously, "If you go back to the princess, you found it in the corner of the garden." “

"What?!" Xu Xiao'e looked incredulous, and stammered and repeated, "In the garden? “

Not in Xiu'er's room, nor in Ayuan and Yunbi's room, but in the garden not far from the hall?

"It must have been Xiu'er's who ran out and threw it in the garden!" Xu Xiao'e saw that she couldn't frame Xiu'er, so she simply started the vexatious troubles she was best at, "Princess Ben heard that you liked to go to the garden some time ago, and it must be to sell the stolen goods!" “

"Slave no!" Xiu'er felt that she was greatly wronged, "The slave maid usually stays by the young lady's side and never leaves, where is there time to go to the garden, I don't know which one is scheming with the princess to chew the root of the tongue, and ask the princess to return the slave maid an innocent!" “

"This slave can vouch for it." Mother Wu knelt down in front of Xu Xiao'e, "Xiu'er has always been inseparable from Miss's side, if the princess still has doubts, you can call the girls in charge of the garden sweeping to come and ask questions." ”

Xu Xiao'e sneered, "What do you mean?" Do you want to say that this princess wronged that for no reason? ”

"The slave didn't dare. The slave was just afraid that the princess would be confused by someone with ulterior motives. Mother Wu knelt straight, "I hope the princess will see clearly!" “

"...... you" Xu Xiao'e only felt that it was difficult to ride a tiger, "Why don't you call those girls up?!" “

Among the subordinates gathered outside the hall, several maids hurriedly ran in and knelt in front of Xu Xiao'e with a "plop". Xu Xiao'e stretched out her voice and asked word by word, "You honestly tell Princess Sùben, these days, does Xiu'er often go to the garden to hang around?" ”

The little maids were startled by her eerie tone, and were silent for a while.

"You think about it carefully and then reply, if you dare to lie in front of this princess, not only yourself, but also your family, this princess has the ability to send it together!"

The little maids were shocked, glanced at Xu Xiao'e in horror, and said in a slur manner, "Slave maid...... The slave doesn't remember very clearly......"

"I can't remember what I mean?!" Xu Xiao'e patted the armrest of the chair, "This princess doesn't have so much time to spend with you, you just have to tell what you know!" “

"Yes...... It's Sister Yunbi! “

One of the little maids couldn't help it, leaned down, and replied while sobbing, "Slave maid...... What the slave often sees in the garden is not Sister Xiu'er, but Sister Yunbi! “

Everyone was shocked, Xu Xiao'e was even more frightened, grabbed the tea cup on the table and threw it at her, "You, what are you crazy about?!" ”

Xiu'er saw the teacup smashing down on the little maid, and hurriedly pulled her to the side, but the little maid was still splashed by the tea, and then only heard a "bang", and the celadon teacup fell to the ground and shattered into several pieces.

The little maid's head was full of tea residues, and she looked like a wolf, but she was still lying on the ground and shivering, "The slave is true, don't dare to lie in front of the princess and the young lady!" “

Yun Bi walked out from behind Xu Xiao'e at this time, "Princess, this maid is full of lies and slanders against slaves and maids, and asks the princess to be the master of slaves and maids!" “

For some reason, after hearing Yun Bi speak, Xu Xiao'e's eyes changed, in addition to anger, she seemed to have a little more satisfaction, and her tone softened a little, "You said you often see Yun Bi in the garden?" When did you see it? Anyone else seeing? ”

"The slave maid is responsible for cleaning in the afternoon, and basically every two or three days, you can see Sister Yunbi passing by." The little maid's voice was thin, and she looked a little lacking in energy, "Because the garden is very close to the master's study, the slave maid thought that the princess sent Sister Yunbi to deliver a message to the master......"

Yun Bi frowned and glanced up at Xu Xiao'e. Xu Xiao'e was stunned, and said, "That's right, it was indeed this princess who sent Yunbi over to find the master." And so many people pass by the garden every day, how can they just hold Yun Bi? ”

Yu Ruoxu smiled and said, "According to the princess's meaning, this matter is really unclear, who threw this red cinnabar into the garden?" ”

The hall fell into a stagnant silence.

Aunt Huang suddenly became a little excited, "I can't find out for a while today, and it's not too early at this hour, or the princess will rest first, and it's not too late to check tomorrow." “

Xu Xiao'e pressed her temples, "What Aunt Huang said is that today's matter is really disturbing, and this princess is also tired, and she will make a decision when the master comes back." ”

Yu Ruoxu breathed a sigh of relief, and sure enough, when Yun Bi was moved out, Xu Xiao'e didn't dare to continue making trouble.

Sending Aunt Huang away, Yu Ruoxu and Xiu'er returned to the room, only to see that the room was a little messy, the bookshelves, makeup boxes, and cabinets were all turned over, and the most exaggerated thing was that even the bed was lifted a corner. Xiu'er exclaimed, "How did the housekeeper and Mother Wu do it, just search the outside world, why do you even dare to touch Miss's things?!" “

Yu Ruoxu was shocked, and hurriedly lifted the blanket on the ground, but fortunately the hidden compartment hidden underneath was not discovered. She suddenly became suspicious in her heart, and said to Xiu'er, "Call Mother Wu to me." ”

"Yes." Xiu'er thought that the young lady would lose her temper with them, but when Wu's mother entered the house, Yu Ruoxu frowned and said, "Who came to search Xiu'er's house today?" ”

"It's a new little maid named Zhuyan." Mother Wu thought for a while, "Xiu'er has always lived in the outer room, and the slave maid also said that you must not trespass in the inner room, but the bamboo smoke didn't know what was going on, and when the slave and maid didn't pay attention, she ran directly to the young lady's house, and said that she saw a paper bag on the young lady's dresser, thinking it was red cinnabar, and wanted to go in and take a closer look." ”

"So you let her turn my house into this?" Yu Ruoxu was a little angry, "I think you have been a housekeeper for so many years!" “

Mother Wu hurriedly bowed her head and said, "It's the slave's fault, please punish the young lady." Zhuyan is a clever girl, and the slave and maid look at it well-behaved, so she has always been regarded as a half daughter, and she has not been disciplined and punished more, but she didn't expect it to be ...... this time."

Yu Ruoxu saw that Mother Wu looked trembling, and said coldly, "Mother Wu is the old man of the Yu family, and she knows what to do and what not to do, so I won't pursue it this time, but over there, I still need you to beat it a few more times." ”

"Slaves obey!" Mother Wu hurriedly responded.

After Wu's mother left, Xiu'er looked at Yu Ruoxu and said with a smile, "Miss is becoming more and more in charge." “

Yu Ruoxu didn't seem to hear it, "You go and help me check to see if Zhuyan is from the East Courtyard." ”

"Miss suspects it was sent from there?" Xiu'er was a little surprised.

"Probably." Yu Ruoxu stretched out her hand and sorted out the rice paper on the table, "I am afraid that someone behind me will be instructed to use this incident." “

"The slave will keep an eye out." Xiu'er nodded and said, "Anyway, this time Miss is really clever, she guessed that the East Courtyard was going to do something to us, fortunately, we found the bag of red cinnabar in advance, otherwise the slave and maid would have been wronged today!" “

"Eat a trench and grow a wisdom." Yu Ruoxu smiled faintly, "The hardships I have suffered in Langzhong before can be regarded as coming in handy." “

Xiu'er paused, and couldn't help asking, "But the slave doesn't quite understand." Why didn't Miss return an eye for an eye and directly put the bag of red cinnabar into Yunbi or Ayuan's house? Throwing it into the garden like this is a big circle, and in the end I can't get out of this evil breath......"

"Xu Xiao'e is not Yu Ruoyun, we still have to save some face for her." Yu Ruoxu sighed, "After all, she is the princess of Nanyue, at least, we can't let her get off the stage in front of Aunt Huang." “

When she heard that Xu Xiao'e was calling the imperial doctor, she felt that something was wrong, and immediately asked Xiu'er to check the room, and sure enough, she found a small bag of red cinnabar under Xiu'er's pillow. She simply made a plan and threw the paper bag into a corner of the garden, and Wu's mother and they went back and forth between the backyard and the hall, and they would surely find the paper bag.

As for the house that mentioned Yì Sou Yunbi and Ayuan at that time, and the little maid who bought the cleaning to testify against Yunbi, these were just trying to give them a dismount. If she doesn't speak, it doesn't mean that she is a bully, and if she dares to calculate her like this under her nose, she will always give Xu Xiao'e a little hardship.

"Miss was trying to scare the princess." Xiu'er laughed out loud, "The slave finally understood, when you mentioned Sou Yunbi and Ayuan's house, the expression of our princess, tsk, it's really ugly and the dominatrix has a fight, the slave finally understands what a paper tiger is......"

"What kind of temperament is the princess, haven't we learned enough during this time?" Yu Ruoxu raised her eyes, "The more you are at a loss, the more you have to mess around, so I will simply let her make enough trouble today." ”

"That's what Miss said." Xiu'er was convinced by her young lady's resourcefulness, "The rumors before that ......"

"I have my own way." After a day of tossing, Yu Ruoxu was also a little tired, "Help me change my clothes, I'll go and lie down for a while." “

A few days later, someone found a few bags of red cinnabar in the wing, and the result was interrogated, saying that it was termites in the wing, and the fierce red cinnabar could be used to drive away ants and avoid harm. As a result, a few careless subordinates mistook red cinnabar for cinnabar and put it directly into the princess's incense burner. After such a boiling scene, Ayuan and those few inattentive subordinates were fined the board and half a year's share, and it ended hastily.

The rumors circulating in the capital also changed direction, saying that the public was in charge of the family incompetently and moody, and Mrs. Yu really couldn't bear it, so she simply hid in the study to teach her daughter to study, but the princess was dissatisfied, and began to spread rumors that the father and daughter had a tryst in the study.

"You can't spread this rumor, right?" At night, Yu Zhongjun saw Yu Ruoxu quietly lying on the table writing a recital, and couldn't help asking.
