Xie Mulin was a little hesitant, whether he should tell all the news he knew.

Although Xiao Rui had already revealed some truths, after thinking about it carefully, he didn't seem to say too many useful things, just mentioning that Ma Yurong sent a steward to Huyin to see him, and the target of the conversation was actually him Xiao Rui and not the third prince. He didn't even say whether Zhao Ying and the third prince were in love with each other, or whether the latter was simply harassing and calculating the former.

Of course, Xie Mulin could also vaguely perceive that Zhao Ying might not be as innocent as she said. However, a girl unfortunately met a scumbag, can't she find new happiness after breaking up? The third prince refused to marry first, and Zhao Ying was engaged to others, even if there was a personal relationship between the two, it would have already changed. Zhao Ying has no intention of turning back, why is the scumbag of the third prince entangled?

Xie Mulin didn't think there was anything wrong with Zhao Ying's approach. However, she didn't know how much Xiao Rui knew about this matter, and she was worried that she would reveal something that should not be revealed, so that Xiao Rui could grasp Zhao Ying's handle and bring disaster to the girl. Anyway, Xiao Rui is the cousin of the third prince after all.

Therefore, Xie Mulin avoided answering, and asked Xiao Rui instead: "During the Dragon Boat Festival, I saw you guarding in front of the bamboo house in the Taoist Temple of Zhoushan to prevent others from entering. You said at the time that the eldest son of Uncle Qishan was in the bamboo house, but you were actually lying, right? Is the person in it the third prince? Who was with him at the time? ”

Xiao Rui glanced at Xie Mulin with some surprise, and groaned slightly: "Second Miss Xie Bingxue is smart, you guessed right, it was indeed the Third Highness who was in the bamboo house at that time." As for the other person...... "he paused," he paused, "it's Zhao Ying." ”

Really!

Xie Mulin sighed: "At that time, there was no talk of the third prince Ma and Miss Zhao's betrothed, everyone was talking about it, and Miss Zhao was about to become the crown princess of the East Palace." It's impossible for the third prince not to know this, right? What the hell is he thinking about doing this kind of thing?! "Zhao Ying too, knowing that she is going to marry into the East Palace, she is still having an affair with her future brother-in-law...... This girl is a little stupider than she thought!

Xiao Rui sighed, thinking of the defense of the three princes at the beginning, he didn't want to say it. He was deceived at that time, and now that he knows that it is a lie, why should he use it to deceive others again? The second girl of the Xie family is indeed smart and keen, in case she perceives the sinister intentions of the third prince at the beginning, she is afraid that she will look down on the third prince and everyone in the Xiao family.

Xiao Rui didn't want to lose this face.

However, he was silent, which did not mean that Xie Mulin couldn't guess the answer: "Now Miss Zhao is about to get married, although she is not married to the crown prince, but the son of the eldest princess of Yongning is also the cousin of the third prince, and Miss Zhao will also be his cousin in the future." This...... He first seduced his future sister-in-law, and now he wrote a secret letter to his future cousin-in-law, why did he go to his sister-in-law? However, this time he had the intention of threatening his cousin-in-law, and he probably wanted to use his cousin-in-law to influence the Zhao family and the Yongning Eldest Princess's Mansion to achieve his goal. And what about before the draft? At that time, almost everyone thought that Miss Zhao had become the crown princess, what was the idea in his heart when he did those things? Could it be that she also wants to threaten Miss Zhao with these old things after she becomes the crown princess, so that she and her family can do things for her? ”

Xiao Rui's face changed slightly, and he unexpectedly heard Xie Mulin say the next words: "It seems that His Royal Highness the Third Prince is also full of malice towards the Prince of the East Palace." I had only heard that he was a good friend of the crown prince, and that he was a good brother who respected his brother, but I never expected it...... These things he has done can't even be done by the second prince, who has always been at odds with the crown prince! The second prince wanted to ask to marry Miss Zhao, but after the prince said that he didn't want her to be the crown princess, he was rejected and refused. But what did the three princes do...... It's truly breathtaking! ”

Xiao Rui couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Second Miss Xie, you are really bold enough." How can I say that I am also the cousin of the Third Highness, and you just say these things in front of me, aren't you afraid that I will be unfavorable to you? ”

Xie Mulin rolled his eyes: "There are only you and me in the house, this is the place of our Xie family, my brother and several people in the family are still in the house, and the people of Jinshan Weizhong who are also in the house all miss the good of our Xie family." If you're trying to disadvantage me, you won't be able to run away! I don't believe that the strictly disciplined Jin Shanwei will let you go knowing that you are a murderer. In order to gag me, do you want to lose the future of your life? Can you do it?! Besides, even if I knew this, what good would I do? Can I still take the initiative to tell the Cao family?! ”

Of course it works, as long as you tell Ma Yurong these words, the third prince will be cold! Don't mention what happened to Zhao Ying, it is impossible for the eldest princess of Yongning to hide this matter, and once Empress Cao and the crown prince know, ......

Xiao Rui didn't dare to think about it anymore. Although he was angry at what the third prince did, he still remembered the cousin friendship between the two for many years, and he didn't want the third prince to end up too miserable.

He pondered for a moment before he said, "Second Miss Xie, Third Highness has indeed done a lot of things that should not be done, but ...... He hadn't done anything yet. Our Xiao family is headed by my father, General Zhuguo, and he does not support the Third Highness to fight for that position. If the Holy One is in favor of the Three Highnesses, he will not object, but if the Three Highnesses take the initiative to fight, he will not approve, let alone provide assistance. So...... The Third Highness has used some methods in many things. If...... I can stop him from making more mistakes and hurting innocent people, can you ...... Why don't you mention today's words to anyone? Even if you don't look at my face, you just pity Miss Zhao Ying, right? ”

This time it was Xie Mulin's turn to hesitate. In fact, she originally thought of mentioning these complaints in her letter to Xie Yinghui.

Xiao Rui continued to persuade her: "Although I have only met Zhao Ying a few times, I also know a little about her temperament. If there is no reason, she will not take the initiative to tell people about her old affairs with the Third Highness. What's more, Ma Yurong is still her future sister-in-law, once Ma Yurong informs the eldest princess of Yongning and Ma Sangongzi of the news she revealed, she will not want to have a good life in the future. The reputation of the Zhao family can't afford to toss again! She would do this, it must have been that His Royal Highness had acted too much and angered her.

"I heard Brother Ling mention before that Ma Yurong met Lianzhu by chance. I remember that Lianzhu opened a small silk shop outside the palace, and the business was not big, but relying on the face of His Royal Highness and the old knowledge of the former Internal Affairs Office, he could occasionally get some clothes made inside for sale, so he could enter and leave the inner courtyard of many rich and noble eunuchs in the capital. On the same day, His Royal Highness and Zhao Ying agreed on the time and place to meet, and asked Lianzhu to take the opportunity of sending clothes to Zhao Ying to send a message...... Can I guess that His Royal Highness used Lianzhu to enter the Zhao family's house again, saw Zhao Ying, and made some excessive requests, and Lianzhu was bumped into by Ma Yurong when he left, so he was suspicious? ”

Awesome, that's pretty much all the truth.

Xie Mulin told him the truth: "The Third Highness sent a letter to Miss Zhao, asking for a private meeting, and also mentioned that she had her personal belongings in his hands. Miss Zhao was very panicked, and as soon as Miss Ma asked, she collapsed. ”

Xiao Rui closed his eyes and sighed: "I don't know if Ma Yurong has mentioned it, what object does the Third Highness have in the hands of Miss Zhao?" ”

Xie Mulin hesitated: "It seems to be two pieces of embroidery." At the beginning, the third prince used the excuse that the queen mother and the queen wanted to see Miss Zhao's female popularity level, and got it from Miss Zhao. Actually, I don't think this kind of thing is nothing, but Miss Zhao's master and servant are very panicked......"

Xiao Rui understood, and his expression was solemn: "Second Miss Xie, can you help me reply to Sister Ling?" Tell Ma Yurong that I will get back Zhao Ying's personal belongings for them. ”
