Chapter 40: No One Is Better Than You
"Brother Prince, my sense of smell is definitely not wrong," Xiao Liyue never doubted herself in this matter, "If it wasn't for that person just now because he was in the West Wing, how could I smell the same smell from my clothes?" ”
Xiao Chuyan also believed in Xiao Liyue, but he also knew that if this matter really went to the Queen Mother, not only Xiao Liyue would be in trouble, but he would also be in trouble.
When he was in the West Wing just now, he also saved face for Luo Yiyi.
"Yue'er, whether this thing was done by her or not, if you say so, except for this palace, I'm afraid that no one will believe it."
"Do you want to let the murderer go unpunished?" Xiao Liyue asked rhetorically, "He didn't succeed today, I'm afraid that he will come again in the future, maybe Brother Prince, you won't be able to see me in a few days." ”
"Don't talk nonsense, with this palace here, who will move you?"
Xiao Chuyan also felt strange, he had already told the emperor that he would arrange more guards in the Yuexi Pavilion.
If Xiao Liyue hadn't lied, how did the assassin get in?
Xiao Liyue's anger had not subsided at this time, and she pouted and said: "I thought that Brother Prince would be facing me everywhere, but I didn't expect that in your heart, you are still looking towards Na Luo Yiyi, I am wrong about you." ”
"Okay, it's the palace's fault, Yue'er, don't be angry, the palace will send you back in person."
"Brother Prince, what if they still do it?"
Xiao Chumad said: "This palace will send more people to ensure that no one will be able to get close to Yue'er for half a step." ”
"Thank you, Brother Prince."
West Wing.
Liu Hui came out and lowered his head, "Princess forgive me, I really didn't expect that the fifth princess would be so cunning, as soon as I entered, he was already aware of my existence, and even made trouble for us." ”
"Hmph, you're embarrassed to say it, if it weren't for my quick reaction, I'm afraid that Xiao Liyue wouldn't notice it, and the prince wouldn't be able to pass that level," Luo Yiyi slapped him hard in the face, "This is a lesson for you, you are not doing well." ”
"I am willing to bear it."
Luo Yiyi said: "You go out first, I won't pursue today's matter with you." ”
"Thank you, princess."
After seeing Liu Hui leave, Luo Yiyi called someone again.
"Kill, don't let him see the sun tomorrow."
"Yes, Princess."
Luo Yiyi knew that the matter had been revealed, and if she wanted to keep it now, it would probably affect herself.
Xiao Chumad and Xiao Liyue will not let this matter go so easily, Luo Yiyi must leave a way back for herself.
The next day.
Xiao Xueqing came out of the Jinluan Hall and stopped Xiao Liyue.
I saw that there were no wounds on her body, only a little mark on her neck.
"I thought my sister was really assassinated, but I didn't expect it to be safe and sound?"
Xiao Liyue's resentment last night hasn't passed yet, she came to ask for peace early in the morning, and she was going to be troubled by Xiao Xueqing.
"Is my sister still looking forward to my death?"
Xiao Xueqing moved closer to her, "You're right, it's a pity, let you live, I don't know who is behind this, I still want your life, Xiao Liyue, it seems that you have offended a lot of people, even if I don't trouble you, there are still other people looking for you." ”
"I don't have to care about my sister's affairs, right?"
"Everyone is a sister, I am kind enough to care about you, don't you appreciate it."
Xiao Liyue didn't hear the slightest kindness from her words, but that sinister face was really uncomfortable no matter how you looked at it.
Xiao Xueqing didn't know what to do in her heart, as long as she saw that Xiao Liyue was not good, she didn't know how happy she was.
It's a pity that she didn't die.
"It is said that you went to the prince's east palace at night? Xiao Liyue, you are not small. ”
"General."
"Don't think that the prince has to help you with everything, he has a lot to do, and he can't handle the affairs of the court, where is the leisure to ask you about a woman? You don't have to worry so much, it's better to take care of yourself first, lest you really have to know what is going on, and you don't know how to die. ”
Xiao Liyue felt that this person was a dog who couldn't spit out ivory from his mouth.
I've never heard her say a nice word, but I don't intend to meet her in the same way.
"Such a stupid thing, I believe that only your sister can do it," Xiao Liyue sniffed again, "I smell how can I smell a smell of wanting to vomit, maybe sister, you didn't rinse your mouth in the morning, right?" ”
"You...... Xiao Liyue, don't go too far. ”
Xiao Liyue stepped back, "Drinking bird's nest early in the morning, it seems that you have made up a lot of money, sister."
Xiao Xueqing wanted to say something, but Xiao Chumad walked over.
"Yue'er?"
"I've seen the royal brother."
"Qing'er, what are you talking about with Yue'er?"
Xiao Xueqing also knew that Xiao Chumad was helping her, her lips opened slightly, and before she could say the excuse, Xiao Liyue said it first.
"Brother Prince, my sister and I are talking about the assassin last night."
"Oh? Does Qing'er know who did it? “
"Brother Huihuang, Qing'er didn't know about it, but she heard about it from others."
Xiao Liyue didn't forget to add, "My sister was still regretting just now, I didn't die last night." ”
"Xiao Liyue, don't frame people in front of the imperial brother."
"Sister, what you said just now is obviously what you said, where did I frame, and the maidservants around me also heard it, I can't blame my sister again, right?"
Xiao Chufang looked at Xiao Xueqing, "Qing'er, is there really such a thing?" ”
"No, Imperial Brother."
"It's better not to have it, Yue'er is our sister, and this palace doesn't want such a thing to happen in the palace, and I also hope that you can get along peacefully," Xiao Chufang finished speaking, and left with Xiao Liyue, "You know she doesn't like you, why do you have to say that in front of her?" ”
"Brother Prince, forgive your sins."
Xiao Chufang didn't blame her, he just felt sorry for her.
If she wasn't by her side, I don't know what kind of means those people would use to get her into trouble.
This time and twice, I was able to dodge, and there were too many times, but I was afraid that I wouldn't even be able to help myself.
Xiao Liyue said again: "It seems that Luo Yiyi didn't tell the Queen Mother about this. ”
"You said something like that in front of her last night, she was somewhat aware of it in her heart, if you tell the Queen Mother, it won't do her any good, I can directly let the Queen Mother investigate at that time, isn't it boring to be self-deprecating?"
"Brother Prince, you are so powerful, as if everything can't hide from your eyes."
Xiao Chufang often has to be praised by her, and his eyes are also full of admiration.
I was still happy in my heart.
Fortunately, she still sees herself, and if she wants to change to someone else, I'm afraid that she will be very uncomfortable.
"Yue'er, it's not that I'm powerful, it's just that many things in this palace are not like what we see with our eyes, you have to look at it with your heart."
Since the death of the first empress, Xiao Chuyan has no one around to protect him.
No matter what happens, the only thing you can count on is yourself.
If he hadn't been smarter, if he hadn't been quick-witted, he wouldn't have known how many times he had died.
The point is, even if he dies, no one will care.
Xiao Chumad even thought that if he died, he would die a long time ago, but now it is completely different.
He knew he had important things to do, and that he still had people to protect him.
Xiao Liyue held him again, "I don't care, anyway, I like Brother Prince, with Brother Prince, I am not afraid of anything." ”
Xiao Chumad stretched out his hand and pinched the tip of her nose, "Yue'er, I can't protect you for a lifetime, you have to keep an eye on yourself at any time." ”
"Why can't Brother Crown Prince protect me for the rest of my life?"
"You're going to get married."
"I don't want it, no one in this world treats me better than Brother Prince, and it is better to be by your side than Brother Prince, by anyone's side," Xiao Liyue said proudly, she didn't plan to let go of this thigh so easily.
And it's not time yet.
Xiao Chu frantically asked someone to send Xiao Liyue back first, and he went to the imperial study.
"Erchen has seen his father."
"Come, Emperor, you come and show me, these twists and turns, now I have a headache when I look at them," the emperor said a little angrily, "You tell me, this Jiangnan appropriation matter, did I do it right?" ”
"Father, you are the Son of Heaven, the people of Jiangnan have experienced floods all year round, and the food is even more than they can make ends meet, and the father can send them some silver, which is naturally a great thing for the people."
"It's still the emperor who understands my intentions, but why do you say that these ministers can't understand my painstaking efforts, but instead say that I am conniving, and that the local officials in Jiangnan are talking nonsense."
Xiao Chu bowed his head wildly, "Father Emperor Shengming." ”
The emperor sighed, "I'm old, these people don't listen to me now, and now the people outside are also complaining about me, the people in this palace don't say it on the surface, but I can see from their eyes that they don't take me seriously at all." ”
"Father, those people are just talking, and the father is magnanimous, so naturally he won't have the same knowledge as them."
"It's still your sweetness," the emperor sighed, "when your mother was still there, I had at least one person who could talk, and your mother was virtuous, and she handled this harem properly, and never made trouble for me." ”
Xiao Chu thought about the past, but he didn't think that the emperor liked the first queen so much.
No matter how well the first queen did things, she couldn't match a word from those women in the harem.
As long as they blow the pillow wind in the emperor's ears, all the things they do will be vetoed.
"Thank you father, I believe that the queen mother is in the spirit of heaven, and I will be happy when I hear such words."
The emperor said something about the former queen again, but Xiao Chumad didn't take it to heart, but it was just one ear in and one ear out.
Those things don't matter to him anymore.
Xiao Chuyan also knew that the emperor said this in front of him, just because he still needed him.
"I am also very pleased, she at least left me such a good son, with you, I can be relieved."
"The father and the emperor love him, and the sons and daughters will not live up to the father."
