Chapter 14: Murder in the Mansion
Shuang'er took breakfast and returned to Broken Yuxuan from the kitchen, and heard gossip about Shen Yunxi along the way.
Whenever he heard the words of attacking Shen Yunxi, Shuang'er wanted to fight back. But, thinking that the enemy was outnumbered, she endured it, puffing out her cheeks and secretly glaring at those idle people.
What! If it weren't for the prince insulting Miss first with the dog cave, Miss would never have those words.
There's nothing wrong with her, Miss, she's just protecting herself. All this was provoked by the prince first, and he is the culprit!
What a bunch of bad people who don't distinguish right from wrong!!
Of course, in view of Feng Qingchen's great stimulation to her last night, even if she gave Shuang'er ten guts, she would not dare to say these words.
As a result, the resentment that had just been suppressed in Shuang'er's heart suddenly rushed upward, but she could only hold it until she returned to Broken Yuxuan, and was able to vent it when there were only her master and servant.
Shuang'er put the breakfast in his hand on the table, and complained to Shen Yunxi, who had just come out of the inner hall: "Miss, the people in this palace are really too much, they actually say bad things about you behind your back, and they are even worse than those people just now!" ”
Shen Yunxi sat down at the table, smiled lightly and asked her, "Didn't you count them down in your heart?" ”
"Uh......" Shuang'er was dumbfounded, but still unconvinced: "Miss! Do you know what they said about you?! If you did, you might be even more angry than me. ”
"What can you say? It's nothing more than words that are not favored and don't know what to do. Shen Yunxi said casually while putting the porridge in the bowl.
Shuang'er was dumbfounded and said in surprise: "Miss, did you overhear their words too?" ”
Shen Yunxi raised his eyes, chuckled, and said, "Even if you don't hear it, you can guess it." ”
After a pause, he said: "Don't pay attention to these things in the future, what do they want to say is their right, we can't stop it, what we live is ours, wouldn't it be too tiring if we care about people everywhere?" ”
"Hmm." Shuang'er pouted and nodded sullenly. She understands these truths, but she just can't get angry.
Shen Yunxi also knew the state of mind of Shuang'er, and he didn't say anything anymore, and put the porridge in front of Shuang'er, "Eat quickly, let's go shopping in the palace after eating." ”
The master and servant finished breakfast, cleaned up and came out of the broken jade xuan.
Before leaving the broken Yuxuan, Shuang'er asked Shen Yunxi and said, "Miss, don't we have to wait for the prince's other concubines to come and ask for peace?" ”
"Do you think they're coming?" Shen Yunxi did not answer the rhetorical question. Shuang'er pursed her lips, and she seemed to be asking a question that was a little redundant.
Shen Yunxi didn't care about this invitation, if she hadn't heard Shuang'er mention it, she wouldn't have had any idea at all.
Thinking about it at the moment, I just think it's a little funny.
People in her situation, I'm afraid she is the only one in this Huang Dynasty.
Just ask, who would be humiliated by her husband in every way on her wedding day, put her in an embarrassing place, and eventually make her become a laughing stock in the eyes of others, and almost lost her life at his hands. Although she gave Feng Qingchen a beautiful counterattack, the damage already existed, and no matter how much she smoothed it out, it couldn't return to its original state.
And Feng Qingchen, who is the master, still treats her like this, how can those who follow him treat her kindly.
If you don't come, I'm afraid that if you come, it's also a hypocrisy and sneering. Isn't that Jingxian a good example last night?
Therefore, she might as well go out for a walk, at least be happy and leisurely.
As for the days in the palace in the future, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth!
Walking slowly on the gravel path outside the Broken Jade Xuan, the chrysanthemums in the garden compete with each other to spit out, red, yellow, and white...... Swaying in the wind under the slight light of the morning sun, the fragrance is overflowing, refreshing.
Seeing such a beautiful view, even the injury on the left shoulder didn't hurt so much.
However, pleasant times are always short-lived, and Shen Yunxi and the others didn't walk long in the garden before they saw Feng Qingchen rushing towards them with anger on his face, followed by his personal guard Long Wu.
"Lord Wang, what makes you so angry?"
Feng Qingchen had just stood still in front of them, and before he could speak, Shen Yunxi asked him with a light smile. Shuang'er stood beside Shen Yunxi with her head down, and blessed Feng Qingchen.
"Shen Yunxi!" Feng Qingchen roared angrily, as if he was about to burst her eardrums.
Shen Yunxi frowned, "What does this mean, Lord Wang?" If I'm not mistaken, I didn't provoke the prince today. ”
"Humph!" Feng Qingchen condensed her and said in a deep voice: "Do you think that the rumors about this king outside the city can be concealed from this king?" ”
Shen Yunxi's eyes were full of doubts and asked, "Rumors? Isn't the rumor outside known to the prince for a long time? How can you hide it? ”
Seeing Shen Yunxi's very innocent appearance, Feng Qingchen's expression was gloomy, and his voice became colder and colder, "At this time, are you still pretending to be confused with this king?" ”
Shen Yunxi smiled lightly and said elegantly: "When the prince speaks like this, Yunxi really can't understand." Please also make it clear to you, Lord Wang. ”
Feng Qingchen coldly took a step closer to Shen Yunxi and said, "Okay! This king will completely make you die! ”
The corners of Shen Yunxi's mouth were still overflowing with a faint smile, and he didn't back down, just standing straight in the autumn wind, facing the yin owl gaze projected by Feng Qingchen.
"Dragon Five! Give it to her! ”
Feng Qingchen commanded, and Long Wu took out a small bamboo pipe from his arms and handed it to Shen Yunxi's hands.
Shen Yunxi took the bamboo tube, glanced at Feng Qingchen, and then took out a letter from the bamboo tube, the letter paper was blank, and there were only three words in the lower left corner - Shen Yunxi.
Seeing this, Shen Yunxi smiled and said, "I said, why does this bamboo pipe look a little familiar?" It turned out to be a letter I sent home this morning. After a pause, he looked up at Feng Qingchen and asked strangely, "How did my family letter get into the hands of the prince?" ”
"Princess, this was taken down from the carrier pigeon that Shattered Yuxuan flew out of this morning." Long Wu answered her question for Feng Qingchen on the side.
Shen Yunxi nodded knowingly and said, "But, is there anything wrong with this?" ”
In the morning light, Feng Qingchen's face jumped tightly, the corners of his mouth were sneering, he took another step closer to her, and glared at her aggressively: "It's a family letter, why don't you leave a word?" Isn't it that you want to play tricks and secretly cross Chen Cang! In this way, you can divert the king's attention, so that the king will not suspect that the rumors in the city that the king is inhumane are from your mouth! ”
The corners of Shen Yunxi's mouth raised a sarcastic smile: "Yunxi didn't write anything, which means that Yunxi is all right, so don't worry about me." What's more, Tianqi has a decree specifying that writing family letters cannot be written like this? As for the rumors that the prince said, if the prince didn't say it just now, Yunxi couldn't do it at all, so how could he instruct him? ”
After a pause, she continued in a cold tone: "Lord Wang, I can understand why you are so angry after hearing this rumor, but you can't fabricate evidence out of thin air to point the finger at me, please find out the matter clearly and then hold you accountable, otherwise the wrong person is the prince." ”
Feng Qingchen's dark eyes narrowed, staring at Shen Yunxi tightly, exuding a haze and cold aura all over his body, as if he was going to devour her alive.
And Shen Yunxi also condensed him, showing no weakness. Seeing this, Shuang'er tugged at her sleeve behind her to show her not to confront Feng Qingchen like last night, but she was still unmoved.
At this moment, the housekeeper Chu Han walked quickly to this side, walked in front of them, and said to Feng Qingchen: "Lord Wang, there is a murder in the house!" ”
