Chapter Twenty-Nine: Spoiling You Alone
Liu Yuezhi knelt on the ground, her angry body trembled like chaff, no matter what she said now, the prince probably wouldn't believe it.
Maybe Zhao Lique couldn't keep the child himself, so he deliberately put the blame on her.
"Lord Wang, the concubine body really hasn't done it!"
If she confessed a small amount of saffron, she would never be able to say it again, so the best thing to do was to deny it.
Lu Yuanbai had a headache when he heard this, and there was no emotion on his cold face, and he caught a glimpse of Chi Yingchu walking in, and he shouted before she turned around, "What do you think?"
Chi Yingchu's back stiffened, so he had to turn his head and pretend not to understand, "What do you think?" ”
"You knew I was asking for your opinion. Lu Yuanbai tugged at the corners of his mouth, and when he saw that she was standing there and hadn't moved, he raised his voice softly, "Come here." ”
She raised her feet and walked in, Zhao Lique's eyes were eager to nail her, and when she passed by Liu Yuezhi, her legs were suddenly hugged by a pair of hands.
Looking down and seeing that it was Liu Yuezhi who was blocking her, Chi Yingchu pushed her hand away: "Let go of me." ”
"Hurry up and explain to the prince, I didn't let the Zhao family let go of the saffron, she did it herself......"
"She doesn't know the situation, how can she testify for you?" Zhao Lique interrupted hatefully.
Chi Yingchu glanced at Zhao Lique calmly, her eyes were full of warning, and it happened that Liu Yuezhi was eager to prove her innocence, and this trouble was thrown to her by Lu Yuanbai again.
Whatever she says at the moment, she is bound to offend one of them.
"I don't know the full picture, so I won't comment on it. ”
Liu Yuezhi sat on the ground and began to wipe her tears and cry bitterly, Lu Yuan's white eyes narrowed slightly, and he got up and wanted to leave: "These two people are wronged, then the king will let you find out about it." ”
Chi Yingchu caught up with his steps and furrowed his brows in disbelief: "I said I don't know, how do you let me check?"
"Besides, it's your backyard, and it's not mine, so if you feel like you have a headache, you will get it out......"
The more she spoke, the quieter her voice became, but Lu Yuanbai still heard it clearly in her ears, and an interesting smile crept up the corner of his eye, and patted her shoulder with one hand.
"You must know that you are in a high position, and many things are involuntary, and it is impossible for this king to favor you alone, but they have entered this king's courtyard, and this king should also take some care of them. ”
When did she mean "I ......" to that end?
Chi Yingchu wanted to go to him for a theory, but Lu Yuanbai had already gone away, Liu Yuezhi was grounded after he went back, and Zhao Lique was sad about the child's affairs every day.
Chi Yingchu didn't expect that what she had to deal with at the beginning would come true now, although Liu Yuezhi is not a good person, Zhao Lique is not a good thing.
Liu Yuezhi calmed down, if she wanted to solve the current predicament, she could only find someone to help, thinking of Lu Yuanbai's attitude towards Chu Yimiao today, so she hit her with the idea.
"You find a way to find Chu Yimiao and say that I suddenly fell ill. ”
"The servant is going. The maid outside nodded in agreement.
Chi Yingchu saw Liu Yuezhi's maid coming, and there was not much surprise on her face: "Go back, I can't help her." ”
"My master is sick, and he will die if he goes late. The maid cried and grabbed her and pleaded.
"The second aunt was fine when she went back, why did she suddenly become seriously ill?" her tone was obviously unbelieving, and the maid's crying action stopped abruptly.
Although Chi Yingchu said this, she still decided to go over and take a look, if people really can't think about it, or if there is an accident, Lu Yuanbai's temperament will definitely be counted on her head again.
As soon as she entered, the door behind her was closed, and Liu Yuezhi sat there intact, not at all like she couldn't open it.
"What is the second aunt looking for me?"
"So far, I won't hide it from you, in the soup that Zhao Lique drank, there is indeed saffron that I ordered someone to put in, because I can't get used to her pampering and pride, but I only put a small amount, not enough to kill her child, if this is false, the sky will thunder!"
Chi Yingchu pondered for a moment and asked, "Then why didn't you tell the prince at that time?
Liu Yuezhi's face changed: "Since you know, what else do you ask?"
"I suspect it's caused by herself, and she wants to drag me into the water, the prince asked you to check, you must find out!"
"The prince is just saying that, he may not believe my words. "Besides, Lu Yuanbai didn't give her silver, why did she want to do her best?
"But ......" Liu Yuezhi still hesitated.
Look, that dog man is too good at acting and deceiving everyone, but only she knows that she lives with her head every day.
Chi Yingchu asked impatiently: "But what? Why should I help you?"
She turned her head to leave, if someone else found out, she would think that they were in a mess.
Liu Yuezhi's heart was crossed, and she suddenly gritted her teeth and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you should have gotten a lot of jade jue from Zhao Lique before, right?"
She stopped but didn't look back, paused and pursed her lips: "What do you want to say?"
"I'll help you take things out for cash, and you can clear my grievances. ”
Chi Yingchu was about to move, a while ago she was looking at the fact that she couldn't send it out, now it's good, someone is willing to help, but the method is a little risky.
The so-called wealth is in danger, stretching out the head is a knife, and shrinking the head is also a knife, so she might as well decide for herself.
The next day, Chi Yingchu started to investigate from the dining room and found no abnormalities, but this matter was reported to Zhao Lique, but it was not so simple.
"Did she have the intention of going against me, Liu Yuezhi hurt me so much, I was just trying to protect myself, isn't my child innocent?"
Zhao Lique's body was up and down, in the past, there was Chunzhi waiting by his side, but now it is different from the past, and none of the maids outside the house dare to step forward.
Lu Yuanbai has been in the study for the past few days, and he hasn't been anywhere, and he heard a report from the secret guard that the prince is secretly investigating the news of Chu Yimiao.
"Master, should we ...... those people?"
"No need, Chu Yimiao's identity is special, just so that they can't get all the real news. ”
"Yes. The Dark Guard exited and vanished.
Prince's Mansion.
The prince finally waited for the person who was released to come back, and stepped forward happily: "What's the situation?"
"It is said that the fourth prince was the one who was rescued by Lin Po outside the city, and the third lady of the Protector's Mansion was also lost at that time. ”
"Some people say that Miss Chu San stole to Yangzhou, and the woman next to the fourth prince was originally a dancing girl in Hualou, and she was later ransomed. ”
"The subordinates got the news that the girl was an illiterate peasant girl, and after seeing the fourth prince, she was going to follow ......."
Which of these identities is true? The crown prince was dizzy when he heard this, and if he told the emperor like this, he might be scolded again.
The prince rubbed his sore temples, and his tone was irritable: "Get out of the palace, and come back after you find out." ”
The subordinates found out that these were reasonable, but they didn't dare to argue with the prince.
