Zhou Ze was already drunk and unconscious before he ate the dishes in the end. As for how Zhou Bing would go in the end, he didn't bother to tell Zhou Ze.

The next day, Zhou Ze woke up early in the morning, and before he could wash up, he heard Zhou Bing claiming that he had something to see.

After Zhou Bing entered the house, he waved his hand and said, "Liangyuan Niangniang knelt outside the door and begged to see His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

Zhou Ze frowned, "What's the matter?" ”

Zhou Bingzhi hesitated for a long time and didn't dare to say it. In Su Ri, what Zhou Ze is most unaccustomed to is Zhou Bing's appearance. If there is something, say it, talk about it and solve it together. Over the years, Zhou Bing has often entered the palace with him to face the saint, but he didn't learn anything else, but he learned the eunuch set!

"Don't grind like a woman." Zhou Ze urged.

Only then did Zhou Bing dare to tell the truth, "Last night, His Royal Highness the Prince, you were drunk and went to the Buddha Hall. ”

Zhou Ze didn't squeak, waiting for Zhou Bing to continue.

"His Royal Highness mistook the third miss of the Fu family for Liangdi, held someone's hand and said a lot, and he had to get drunk with the third lady."

Zhou Ze was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "What did I say to her?" ”

Zhou Bing shook his head, "You sent the minions away." ”

What the? Let's go?

Zhou Ze chuckled in his heart and asked again, "What did I do to her last night?" ”

Zhou Bing shook his head, and subconsciously Zhou thought that she should have done nothing to this eldest sister.

But he was still very uncertain and asked, "Where did I stay last night?" ”

"Your bedroom."

As soon as Zhou Ze heard this, the stone in his heart fell. So, he motioned to Zhou Bing with his eyes to continue.

"Last night, Liangyuan Niangniang's personal maid Bi Kite saw you holding the third lady's hand. Today, Liangyuan knelt in front of the door and begged you to give the third lady a name. ”

Zhou Bing said this carefully, and Zhou Ze's face was also a little distorted.

What exactly does this woman want to do?

Zhou Ze couldn't turn a blind eye to Fu Qingman, and it was not good to leave the beauty aside. I had to bite the bullet and go out of the room.

When Fu Qingman saw Zhou Ze, he cried even more pitifully, and quickly kowtowed and said, "I beg His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to give my sister a name!" ”

Zhou Ze stepped forward to help Fu Qingman up, "Gu didn't touch the eldest aunt, don't cry." ”

Fu Qingman was relieved when he heard Zhou Ze's words, so he wiped his tears, "Sister's reputation ......"

Zhou interrupted Fu Qingman, "Lone will return your sister's innocence." ”

After Fu Qingman listened, he remembered that Zhou Ze still had to enter the palace to face the saint, and stretched out his hand to tidy up Zhou Ze's clothes, "The prince wants to go early, so let's go early." ”

Zhou Ze shook Fu Qingman's hand and walked out of the prince's mansion. Looking at Zhou Ze's back, Fu Qingman smiled.

Bi Kite is very puzzled why the master would let the prince give Fu Ci a name, if the concubine enters the palace, either the crown princess is a good woman, why give yourself one more enemy?

Then he opened his mouth and asked, "Why did Niangniang help the third lady speak?" ”

Fu Qing glanced at Bi Kite proudly, and asked rhetorically, "Do you think that with Zhou Bing, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will let Fu Ci climb on his bed?" ”

Fu Qingman's question has already answered all the doubts in Bi Kite's heart.

Fu Ci is a woman who was divorced by His Royal Highness the Prince, if Zhou Ze slept with Fu Ci, outsiders would not say anything about Fu Ci, but would say that the royal family took marriage as a child's play. It will even be said that the royal family has saved the face of the prince. Zhou Bing is not stupid, this layer of Fu Qingman can think of Zhou Bing, and he will definitely think of it. Even if Zhou Ze really did something unbearable to Fu Ci, Zhou Bing would hide these things.

Right now, the eldest prince and the third prince are staring at the dragon chair, and the emperor attaches great importance to King Xi. Pushing His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the cusp of such a stupid thing, Zhou Bing categorically would not do it. Fu Qingman's behavior is just to probe the prince and pretend to be a sisterly by the way.

Bi Kite figured out the relationship between this, and complimented, "Niang Niang is wise. ”

"Let's go, let's go see the Buddha hall."

The most important thing in the Prince's Mansion is flowers. Although the peony is bewitching, it is even more eye-catching than the peony flower with a national color and fragrance. However, in the end, the true king of flowers must be the peony flower.

Fu Qingman allows a woman like a peony to exist, but if someone wants to be a peony. That Fu Qingman will definitely let this peony flower wither before it shows its appearance.

Fu Qingman came to the Buddhist hall with Bi Kite and saw Fu Ci copying Buddhist scriptures.

"My sister is really leisurely, and she still has the heart to copy Buddhist scriptures."

Seeing Fu Qingman coming, Fu Ci hurriedly got up and saluted, and said, "The courtiers don't dare." ”

"Don't dare?" Fu Qingman said with a smile, "What happened last night, if Liangdi Niangniang knew about it, what would my sister think?" ”

Fu Ci didn't know about Situ Miaojing. But just looking at Fang Shi's willingness to entrust his daughter to Situ Shi, he felt that this person would not be too difficult to get along with. Intuition told Fu Ci that Prince Liangdi was a reasonable woman.

If you get contaminated with this troubled water, I'm afraid it will be difficult to wash it off in this life. However, the two masterminds who killed Yodocha are in front of him, do you really want to give up this opportunity for revenge?

If he said that Zhou Ze had contaminated his body, would Zhou Ze be responsible or would he kill people?

For a moment, Fu Ci really couldn't figure it out.

Although she hadn't figured out how to choose, Fu Ci still replied without being arrogant or humble, "The courtiers have no shame in their hearts, and if Liangdi knows, she will definitely find out the truth." ”

What Fu Qingman is most unaccustomed to is Fu Ci's pretentious appearance. Then he leaned closer and whispered, "Wait and see." ”

Fu Qingman sat elegantly on the chair and tasted the snow-topped Han Cui that had just come up from the local tribute, without Fu Qingman's order, Fu Ci couldn't get up, so he had to kneel on the ground.

After a cup of tea, Situ sent someone to invite Fu Ci to go to the Tibetan Pavilion for a small talk.

Fu Qingman looked at Fu Ci, and the smile on his face became more and more uncontrollable.

She didn't believe that Situ Miaojing would let go of her former biggest enemy, Fu Ci, who was once named the crown princess.

Fu Qingman watched very proudly as Fu Ci was taken away by the maid, waiting for the pleasure of sitting on the fisherman's profit surging in his heart.

Fu Ci arrived at the Tibetan Pavilion of Situ Miaojing, looking at the beauty on the couch, Fu Ci bowed very respectfully.

Situ didn't immediately let Fu Ci get up, but first asked if the matter of the prince's palace going to the Buddhist hall last night was true.

Fu Ci nodded. At that moment, she saw the smile on Situ Miaojing's face instantly freeze, so she kowtowed respectfully, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a righteous man and a gentleman, and he has not done anything unbearable to his courtiers. ”

Hearing this, Fu Ci saw that the expression on Situ Miaojing's face softened a little, and then continued: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been thinking about his mother for a long time, and all that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mentioned to his courtiers last night was Liangdi Niangniang. ”

Situ ordered the maid to step forward and help Fu Ci up, and gave her a seat, "Can you tell me more about this palace?" ”

Fu Ci replied and saluted again, "I implore the mother to promise the courtiers one thing first." ”

Situ Miaojing is not a person who takes advantage of others in vain, and the Situ family's upbringing of her for so many years has fallen to a core point that is interpersonal relationships.

"You say."

"Let the courtiers go back to the Fu Mansion."

Fu Ci said sincerely, and Situ saw that she didn't look like the kind of person who wanted to capture His Royal Highness the Prince, so he nodded, "This palace promises you." ”

Fu Ci hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, "Xie Liangdi's grace!" ”

Seeing that the surprise on Fu Ci's face was not pretended, and the word "grace" was used, Situ Miaojing was very curious about her relationship with Fu Qingman.

"Liangyuan treats you badly?"

Fu Ci nodded honestly.

When women want to form alliances, they either have a common interest or a common enemy.

Fu Ci is well aware of this.

"Last night, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that he was ashamed of his mother, and hoped that his mother could endure it now."

"What is forbearance?" Situ Miaojing asked.

"The courtiers don't know", Fu Ci lowered his head.

What is the question of forbearance, Situ Miaojing is the old man of the Prince's Mansion, so he naturally understands it much better than her.

For example, Situ knew that the person who really harmed him was not the Fang clan, but he still had to drag this substitute ghost into the water. It's just that Situ Miaojing doesn't understand, why did Zhou Ze let the concubine of the Fu Mansion not marry, and accepted a concubine as a concubine?

There is only one reason, Fu Qingman has something on his body that Fu porcelain does not have.

Women are just a tool for the crown prince. It's like the prince still hasn't had a wife.

This position, the crown prince wants to leave to a person who will be of great help to him.

Or, the person has a deep background; Or, this person gave birth to the emperor's eldest grandson.

"This palace wants to know, what is there on Fu Qingman that you don't have?" Situ asked pointedly.

Fu Ci naturally wouldn't explicitly say that the prince needed the three thousand Chen family troops in Fu Qingman's hands.

The mother asked the courtiers why, and the courtiers didn't know. Niangniang might as well think about what the prince lacks most. Fu Ci replied.

What's missing?

Situ went over and over again in his mind.

After thinking for a long time, he said, "Military power? ”

Fu Ci didn't nod or deny, but asked, "Can Niangniang fulfill her promise to her courtiers now?" ”

Situ stood up and stroked his lower abdomen, "When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince returns to the house, the palace will ask His Royal Highness to personally send you back." ”

Situ Miaojing naturally didn't want Fu Ci to stay in the Prince's Mansion. With such a delicate face, staying by his side is to raise tigers. What's more, this is Miss Yan of the Guogong Mansion, and after getting along for a long time, it is difficult to guarantee that Zhou will not have any favor for Fu Ci. What's more, the crown prince will inherit the throne in the future, and the crown princess's position is above 10,000 people under one person.

Fu Ci really doesn't have this kind of ambition?

She didn't believe it!

Today's early dynasty ended quickly, and it was nothing more than a discussion of the military situation of the king of Xi in the border fortress. Thinking that there were still a lot of troubles in the mansion, Zhou Ze didn't chat too much with the ministers, but let Zhou Bing drive the carriage back to the mansion as soon as possible.

As soon as I entered the door, I heard the little maid say that Situ Liangdi was waiting for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the study.

Zhou thought that Situ Miaojing had figured out the relationship and wanted to bow his head to her and admit his mistakes, so he went to the study excitedly. However, what she saw was Fu porcelain with crimson cheeks.

Zhou saw Fu Ci sitting on the chair in a daze, while Situ was comforting him.

"What's wrong?"

Situ didn't care about his previous suspicions, and took the initiative to say: "I really wronged the third miss, the prince has to make the decision for the third miss." ”

Zhou Zeyi heard that it was not Situ Miaojing who hurt Fu Ci. After going out, he was very worried that the people in the house who loved to chew the root of his tongue would tell Situ Miaojing about it. If the people in the mansion did not distinguish between black and white, he was really afraid that Situ would find trouble with Fu Ci. No matter how bad it is, Fu Ci is also the young lady of the Guogong Mansion. was really injured in his mansion, how to explain to Fu Qian?

"Who hurt you?" Zhou asked.

Fu Ci bowed his head and was silent, as if he was scared and entangled.

Zhou Ze saw that Situ and Fu Ci were unwilling to say much, so he slowed down his tone a little, "It's up to you to make the decision." ”

Fu Ci looked at the person in front of him, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, "I beg His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to let his courtiers go home!" ”

During these days of getting along, Zhou Ze has always felt that Fu Ci is a weak person who is bullied. For her to say this, she must have suffered some kind of grievance.

"But who bullied you?"

Fu Ci shook his head, and Zhou turned to Situ Miaojing, "You say." ”

Situ Miaojing knelt on the ground and gently spit out three words, "Fu Liangyuan." ”

"Zhou Bing, go and bring Fu Qingman."

Zhou Bing heard Zhou Ze's angry summons, answered the call outside the door and went to Haitang Tower. Along the way, Zhou Bing was speculating about what made Zhou Ze, who had always been as gentle as jade in front of outsiders, so angry.

Previously, Fu Qingman's murder of Situ was not unaware of Zhou. Fortunately, Situ Shifu didn't lose the big child. For such a thing, Zhou Ze can turn a blind eye and let the Fang clan take the blame. What is it that makes Zhou Ze be able to ignore this face regardless of his thoughts?

Zhou Bing came to Haitang Tower, Fu Qingman thought that Zhou Ze was coming here for lunch, and happily waited for Zhou Bing to explain his intentions, but unexpectedly Zhou Bing said with a gloomy face, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in the study, please come over." ”

On weekdays, no matter how bad Zhou Bing is, he is expressionless to convey the meaning of the prince, but today he has a gloomy face.

"Can the manager tell me a thing or two?" Fu Qingman asked tentatively.

Zhou Bing really wanted to see what Fu Qingman had to make Zhou Ze unable to move her, and said, "The slave doesn't know why, just listen to His Highness's voice, Niangniang, you better be on guard." ”

Although Zhou Bing refused to say it explicitly, he was the person next to the prince, so he smiled again, "Can the chief wait for me for a quarter of an hour to let the palace dress up a little?" ”

Zhou Bing waved his hand, "I still hope that my mother will go and return quickly." ”

After Fu Qing thanked him, he hurriedly walked into the bedroom. Seeing that Fu Qingman was a little depressed, Bi Kite couldn't help asking, "Niangniang, do you think there's anything wrong?" ”

Fu Qingman pondered for a long time, and her intuition told her that this was a Hongmen banquet.

"Take out what my mother left me."

Bi Kite hurriedly found a box, and Fu Qingman was willing to take out this life-saving talisman, presumably the matter was very serious.

Fu Qingman held the box in his arms, and only then did he feel some temperature in his body. After being stunned in the chair for a while, he said, "Let's go." ”

When Fu Qingman walked out of the bedroom, Zhou Bing obviously noticed that Bi Kite was holding a box in his arms.

Could this be what the prince wants? Zhou Bing didn't ask, and silently followed behind Fu Qingman.

The survival rule of the emperor's family is to protect oneself. He has been very consistent with this since he was a child.

When he arrived at the study, Fu Qingman saw Zhou Ze sitting in the center with a frown, and Situ was comforting Fu Ci on the side. Fang didn't take a closer look, but after a careful look at it at the moment, he saw that Fu Ci's face obviously had traces of being fanned.

Fu Qingman knelt down and said, "The concubines see His Royal Highness the Prince, see Liangdi Niangniang." ”

Zhou Ze didn't let Fu Qing get up, and Situ Miaojing didn't speak. Fu Qingman had no choice but to kneel on the ground and wait for Zhou Ze to ask her.

There was silence in the study for a long time before Zhou Ze spoke, "I want you to explain." ”

Fu Qingman really didn't know what kind of play Situ Miaojing sang with Fu Ci, and he didn't dare to answer rashly. After thinking about it, I guessed that Situ Miaojing must have known about the matter between the prince and Fu Ci last night, and let people give a slap, and Fu Ci couldn't get over it, so she had to come to His Royal Highness the Prince and beg His Royal Highness the Prince to make the decision for her.

"The concubine didn't take care of the maid, so she let last night's incident reach Liangdi's mother."

The corners of Situ Miaojing's mouth rose a little, but Zhou Ze's brows tightened.

"Which rumor?" Zhou asked.

Bi Kite stepped forward on his knees, kowtowed vigorously, and only after kowtowing enough did he say: "It's the slave maid who didn't take care of the people below and has nothing to do with Liangyuan Niangniang, the slave maid has already taught those people a lesson, and begged His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to atone for his sins." ”

Zhou Zegan laughed twice and asked, "Oh? I don't know how you punished those slaves and maidservants? ”

"The slave and maid have ordered them to be slapped twenty times in the mouth, as an example." Bi Kite said tremblingly.

Zhou Ze fell down in front of Fu Qingman with a teacup, "Is there a third lady in this?" ”

Seeing that Zhou Ze was angry, Bi Kite was ready to be loyal to the Lord. No matter what Zhou Ze says, she will shoulder all the blame by herself, and she will be loyal to this young lady who has served for many years.

"Why don't you speak?" Zhou asked.

Fu Qingman knocked and said, "What the concubine hasn't done, she will definitely not admit it." ”

"How many witnesses do you want to call?" Zhou Ze said, and made a gesture to Zhou Bing, and Zhou Bing immediately brought two maids.

"You just have to say what you see and what you hear?"

The little palace maid kneeling on the ground had never seen this kind of posture, and her voice was a little trembling when she spoke, "Slave, I passed by the Buddha Hall this morning and saw Liangyuan Niangniang in the Buddha Hall. The third and third ladies knelt on the ground. For the rest, the slaves really don't know! After that, the little palace maid kowtowed vigorously and begged for mercy.
