399. Investigation

"The princess is reasonable."

Zhou Yunxi was not annoyed by Xilingying's words, but hooked his lips and smiled.

"It's just a matter of facts." Xiling Ying also hooked her lips slightly when she heard this, with a shallow smile on her face, "Although my temperament is as heroic as a man, I am not so strong as to be reasonable. ”

This made Zhou Yunxi frown slightly, but did not continue to talk to her.

"Even so, the courtiers implore the emperor to investigate this matter thoroughly, and it can be regarded as an explanation to the injured person." Zhou Yunxi said, "Besides, what is the difference between setting fire in Beijing and burning the feet of the Son of Heaven?" The arsonist has no king's law, despises the imperial power, and puts the majesty of the emperor at the soles of his feet. ”

"I see."

Chu Ci listened to Zhou Yunxi's words, which meant that he was sure that it was done by the people of the Western Regions, but what Xi Lingying said was high-sounding, that is, Chu Ci wanted to give an order, and he couldn't find a good excuse for the time being.

Moreover, now this Xiling Ying can't be moved.

However, if the arson matter is used well, it can also give the upper hand in the 'game' between Dachu and the Western Regions, and make the Western Regions lose money.

That's a good thing.

But the question is, how.

And now, what Chu Ci needs is for Zhou Yunxi to give a reason for him to send someone to meddle in this matter and investigate the merchants of the Western Regions openly!

"The courtiers knew that the princess was a noble guest of Dachu, and it was only the merchants of the Western Regions who escorted the princess to Beijing." Zhou Yunxi could guess Chu Ci's scruples, so he also knew that Chu Ci only said that in order to keep himself talking, he gave a reason, "The princess must not know about this matter, but this bracelet was indeed found in the fireβ€”β€”"

"What does the princess want to say?"

Xilingying's eyes narrowed slightly when she heard this, revealing a smell of danger. She naturally knew that Zhou Yunxi was not so easy to give up, but the people of the Western Regions couldn't suffer in Dachu.

"I hope the princess will let them cooperate with the investigation." Zhou Yunxi and Xiling Ying looked at each other, and their attitude was a little tough, "Presumably the princess doesn't want to bear the charge for others, right?" ”

At the end of these words, Xilingying's face was a little ugly.

"Princess Shizi, you are looking down on me from the Western Regions!" At this time, Xiling Ying did not speak, but the envoy of the Western Regions, Xili, couldn't bear it anymore and scolded him, "Even if the business with you collapses that day, we won't use such means!" ”

"Your Excellency has misunderstood." Zhou Yunxi was not angry because of Xili's words, but smiled slightly, making Xili frown fiercely, "I don't suspect that you or the princess did it, it's just that the businessman is profit-seeking, and you can't guarantee that the businessman who is accompanying you will be high-spirited and will not have a small belly." ”

"Besides, this matter is a matter between us merchants, how can we look down on the people of the Western Regions?" Saying that, Zhou Yunxi paused slightly, "The princess understands righteousness and has a hearty temperament, so she will definitely not refuse my proposal, right?" ”

These words choked Xili, he naturally couldn't refute it, if he refuted, wouldn't it be denying Zhou Yunxi that Xiling Ying 'understands righteousness and is in a good mood'?

"The princess is sharp and sharp, and Xiling admires it."

Xiling Ying also knew that there was no room for returning to the world in this matter, and Zhou Yunxi had the confidence to say this, clearly acquiescing to Chu Ci, who was sitting on the top. Even if she objected, it would be useless. Let's do it

The most important thing is that if you oppose it, it is undoubtedly directly on the opposite side of Zhou Yunxi. And standing on the opposite side of Zhou Yunxi means that she wants to oppose Chu Ci!

People have to bow their heads under the eaves, let alone on someone else's land now?

"Thank you for your forgiveness."

Zhou Yunxi didn't care what Xiling Ying was thinking, all she wanted was to find out who the person who set the fire was. Of course, she knew that Xiling Ying would not be unaware of this matter, but the person who set the fire would not be Xiling Ying.

As soon as these words came out, Xiling Ying only sneered and did not answer.

"They're a little too arrogant."

After this matter was decided, Xiling Ying took Xili out of the palace. After that, Chu Ci opened his mouth with an unkind face. He thought that the fire was just an accident, but this time Zhou Yunxi came here, how could he still think that it was an accident?

They all have such courage in the territory of Great Chu, it is really lawless!

"They already had a plan." Qin Fengyi finally spoke at this time, and his tone was gentle, "Setting fire to the capital, maybe the person who really comes is not good, and you must be on guard." ”

"I remember you said before that they intended to be close?" Zhou Yunxi suddenly spoke, "If it is a friendly person, it will not be a bad person." Even if it's not good, you'll have to wait a few years. ”

Zhou Yunxi's words, Qin Fengyi and Chu Ci both understood. Since the purpose is to marry Chu Ci for the sake of harmony, can you wait for Xiling Ying to give birth to a prince, can you do it to Chu Ci?

"So I'm going to marry her to Lin Qing." Chu Ci's tone was light, "Lin Qing has a hard temperament, and the woman next to him doesn't dare to get close to him, just a suitable person to send to the door, why don't I use it?" ”

"I'm afraid that this princess doesn't mean you, but she wants the prince." Zhou Yunxi sneered when he heard this, and his eyes suddenly felt cold when he saw Qin Fengyi, "Previously, the merchants of the Western Regions came to me to discuss business, but the princess's attention was on the prince, and she didn't give me a cent." ”

"So?" After Zhou Yunxi's words, Chu Ci's eyebrows raised slightly, and he was ready to watch a good show, "It seems that even if the prince is married, he will still be as beautiful as he was back then." ”

"The emperor is high and powerful, and the three palaces and six courtyards are still empty, and in time, it will be very lively." Qin Fengyi's tone was light, but he was speechless for a while, "The emperor is ridiculing Weichen like this today, I am afraid that when the ministers come in and ask the emperor to take a concubine, Weichen may not be able to give advice to the emperor and solve his urgent needs." ”

"You-"

Hearing this, Chu Ci glared angrily, but seeing that Qin Fengyi was still indifferent, he only snorted coldly and said no more. How did he not know the meaning of Chu's words?

It's nothing more than that today he laughed at Chu Ci, and in the coming days, the ministers will admonish the concubine, and he will not help to dismiss it, nor will he help stop it. Of course, if Qin Fengyi was still in the capital at that time.

"I heard the emperor's voice from afar, what's wrong?"

When Liu Yue's voice came, the anger on Chu Ci's face had not completely dissipated, but after Liu Yue's voice sounded, Chu Ci's face was only left with a smile and gentleness.

"I've seen the queen's mother, the mother is a thousand years old."

Zhou Yunxi and Qin Fengyi saluted one after another, even if there were no outsiders around, their etiquette was still thorough.

"No need to be polite." Liu Yue smiled and helped Zhou Yunxi up, "Yunxi, I have always remembered your kindness, and you don't have to be so respectful to me." ”
