Du Yan stepped forward and grabbed Du Juan'er's wrist and dragged it up, she stared at Du Juan'er with a frown, and said in a cold and hard tone: "What are you doing!" โ€

Du Juan'er was still a little stunned when she was grabbed violently, she looked at Du Yan's angry face, and said loudly

"Juan'er wants to make some food for the eldest sister, just now-"

"Shut up! Don't you know that the palace doesn't allow you to light a fire! Du Yan roared, Du Juan'er was purely blocking her, Du Juan'er still had to explain, but Du Yan didn't want to hear her say a word, so she threw her aside, broke up the fire with her feet, and then stepped on it little by little.

Du Juan'er shed tears in the back, looking pitiful.

"Eldest sister, what do you mean by this, Juan'er is just kind, I'm afraid that the eldest sister will be hungry." Du Juan'er said while crying that she still didn't feel that she was wrong.

Xiao Yechen next door also smelled a burning smell, jumped up in a hurry, and finally climbed over the wall again.

Xiao Yechen climbed over the wall and saw Du Juan standing stupidly on the side and Du Yan who kept stepping on the fire, Xiao Yechen stepped forward in two steps, pulled Du Yan's shoulder and asked what was wrong, but Du Yan was frantically stepping on the fire, and he had no time to pay attention to him.

Du Yan couldn't figure out why this fire was so difficult to extinguish at this time, and the smoke from the wood had already drifted up to the black lump on the roof.

If you can't step on it again, the people in the palace will come in a while, and you can't tell how to say it when the time comes. Du Yan was thinking about it, and a high-pitched Changting Palace water resounded in the ears of Du Yan and the others.

The guards patrolling nearby immediately called people to come, and for a while, the Changting Palace was surrounded by water, and the sea of people was flooded. A little eunuch who specializes in extinguishing fires stepped forward to extinguish the remaining sparks, and then honestly stood behind the eunuch in charge.

The leader was Gonggong Li, who had come to take them to Guozijian before, Gonggong Li glanced at Du Yan with gray skirts, and then looked at the Third Highness next to him.

Gonggong Li cleared his throat and said, "A few young ladies, it is forbidden to make a fire privately in the palace, this is something that is expressly forbidden. Can the old slave ask what kind of fire is this, and what does it do? โ€

At this time, Du Juan'er stopped talking, Du Yan glared hatefully, the fire was born in front of her door, even if she didn't get it, she would have to be charged with poor care, it was better to admit it now.

As soon as Du Yan lifted the hem of her skirt, she stepped forward to explain, looking at death as if she were home, and her righteous and awe-inspiring appearance. Xiao Yechen held her arm hard beside her before straightening Du Yan's bent legs, Xiao Yechen's movements made Du Yan stunned for a moment, and then looked up at his side face.

Xiao Yechen walked in front of Gonggong Li with easy steps, Gonggong Li looked at him and bowed to him, Xiao Yechen picked it up casually, and said aloud to everyone: "I'm sorry everyone, the fire started because of me, this matter is me, I wanted to borrow the yard of the eldest lady of the Du family to bake something to eat, but I didn't expect to be so excited." โ€

That Gonggong Li is also a clever man, and when he saw that the third prince intended to hold down this matter, he felt that it was not good to be too strict. So Gonggong Li smiled at Xiao Yechen and said: "Your Royal Highness is serious, taking up a post in the palace, that is the emperor's grace, and we naturally have to be conscientious as slaves."

Today, the little eunuch took a look at this matter

Eye, I thought there was some fire in the palace, which alarmed some people, so His Royal Highness didn't blame the minions, and the minions would go down for a while to educate the little eunuch. What do your Highnesses think? โ€

The method that Gonggong Li said was really good, Du Yan couldn't help but glance at Xiao Yechen with his eyes, and asked him to hurry down, and the matter was over.

Du Yan kept giving Xiao Yechen a look here, but Xiao Yechen didn't look at it, and turned his back directly to her, Xiao Yechen lowered his head as if he was thinking about something.

Gonggong Li was waiting with a smile on his face, seeing what else this master wanted to do.

Xiao Yechen turned around, his clear eyes looked at Gonggong Li, and Gonggong Li nodded at him.

"My father-in-law understands righteousness so well, and I am naturally grateful. It's just-" Xiao Yechen turned his head and glanced at Du Juan'er who was standing in the corner, that glance contained too much information, the corners of his eyebrows were lightly raised, and Gonggong Li also followed his gaze and smiled: "Your Highness, please speak." โ€

"It's just that when I was roasting something on the side, the second lady of the Du family suddenly poured something in the fire, causing the fire to burn again and again, and black smoke billowed out, so that I had to extinguish the fire at one time. I think that thing is dangerous, so let's ask Gonggong Li to take a closer look. โ€

After Xiao Yechen finished speaking, the first one to be dumbfounded was Du Juan'er, she probably never thought that this fire would inexplicably burn on her.

Before Du Yan could react, Du Juan'er knelt in the middle of the crowd first, crying hoarsely

"Your Highness has been wronged! This-this, this, this......" Du Juan'er suddenly came out in the middle of her words, if she told the truth and said that she was roasting a fire in the palace, it would not be a crime that Du Fu could resolve with a word, but Xiao Yechen framed her like this, and she didn't end well.

Du Juan'er was so blocked by Xiao Yechen that she couldn't say a word, her face was flushed, and she couldn't stop crying here. Gonggong Li on the other side had no patience, and directly interrupted: "Second Miss, you said that Your Royal Highness has wronged you, just explain the truth, don't be nervous, there are rules in the imperial city, neither slander good people, nor bend the law for personal gain!" โ€

When Gonggong Li said the last word, his voice was already raised, and he shook off the dust and summoned two eunuchs to take Du Juan'er away.

"Come on, clean up this yard." Gonggong Li shouted loudly, then turned to Du Juan'er and said, "Second Miss Du Family, please go with the old slave." โ€

Du Juan'er struggled frantically with the support of the two little eunuchs, and shouted loudly, I am the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion! How dare you catch me!!

Du Juan'er's voice was gradually dragged away, Du Yan stood in place and was still a little undecided, she watched Gonggong Li bow to Xiao Yechen and retreat, Xiao Yechen seemed to say something to Gonggong Li, Du Yan didn't hear it.

It wasn't until the excitement in the courtyard had dispersed and calmed down again, that the two people standing in the courtyard moved. Du Yan opened her mouth and asked, "Why did you do that?" โ€

Xiao Yechen turned around, his gaze had returned to calm, and he smiled softly at Du Yan: "What? โ€

"Why.

.... Telling lies? โ€

Xiao Yechen smiled, his eyes staring at the cloudless sky again.

"What do you mean by telling a lie? Do you think I'm lying? โ€

"It's not ...... either"

Xiao Yechen looked directly at Du Yan with a serious expression: "Then do you think I did something wrong?" โ€

Du Yan looked up at him violently when she heard this, and said in an eager tone: "No! You're right! โ€

The corners of Xiao Yechen's mouth picked: "That's good." Du Juan'er is a person who wants her to have a longer memory, and don't forget what kind of person she is. โ€
