Zhou Yunxi entered the palace on the second day with the bracelet with wolf teeth.

She went suddenly, but even if it was sudden, the palace was polite when she saw Zhou Yunxi coming. After all, they all know that the queen was able to give birth to a child smoothly, and Zhou Yunxi contributed a lot.

"Please also ask the prince and the princess to stay for a while, and let our family go and report to the emperor first." Gonggong Wan said softly, "The envoys and princesses of the Western Regions are still inside, and it seems that they have something to discuss with the emperor. ”

Hearing this, the corners of Zhou Yunxi's lips hooked slightly, and it was difficult to figure out what he was thinking.

"There is a father-in-law."

Although Zhou Yunxi's face made Gonggong Wan feel a little weird, he didn't think much about it. This is only true when Zhou Yunxi has been stimulated a few times in a short period of time.

If Gonggong Wan knew that Zhou Yunxi had come to see Chu Ci today, it happened to be the people from the Western Regions who were now in the imperial study, but he was afraid that his heart would tremble.

- Zhou Yunxi's complexion, no matter how you look at it, is not good.

"I've seen the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live." After Zhou Yunxi and Qin Fengyi entered together, they saluted respectfully to Chu Ci, and as for Xiling Ying and the others who were standing on the side, they didn't even look at it.

This attitude made Xiling Ying frown slightly, and there was a little more playfulness on his face. Why Zhou Yunxi came, Gonggong Wan and the others may not know, but Xiling and them are very clear in their hearts.

"No need to be polite."

Seeing this, Chu Ci also whispered, and his attitude was very gentle. When he saw Zhou Yunxi and Qin Fengyi, Chu Ci's previously tense expression also relaxed a lot, which made Xiling's eyes shine slightly, and he felt surprised in his heart.

It stands to reason that this emperor should not have such a look towards his courtiers.

Thinking of hearing those undeniable rumors along the way into the territory of Great Chu, coupled with Chu Ci's reaction at this time, Xiling Ying's heart suddenly felt that maybe the rumors were really not groundless.

This term of the Great Chu Emperor is different from the previous one. He seems to have great trust in this powerful Hou Mansion prince, and his tolerance is also very high.

The princess of the Hou Mansion, who has nothing to do with that identity, seems to be extremely friendly. Of course, Xiling Ying could see that Chu Ci's friendship was not the kind that happened overnight, but had been formed for a long time.

"Your Majesty, the courtiers entered the palace today for one thing." Zhou Yunxi's voice was very soft, and his face was a little gloomy, "Please ask the emperor to call the shots!" ”

"Take your time." Chu Ci saw Zhou Yunxi's brows furrowed slightly.

He has known Zhou Yunxi for so long, but he has never seen Zhou Yunxi have such a polite and respectful attitude towards anyone. Chu Ci knew in his heart that even if Zhou Yunxi saluted in the past, it was extremely perfunctory.

Although the etiquette is thorough and there is nothing wrong, the eyes can't deceive people.

"There was a fire in Beijing last night, has the emperor heard about it?" Zhou Yunxi still didn't glance at Xiling Ying and the others on the side, "The fire burned in the middle of the night, burned a shop in Beijing, and turned this prosperous store into a pile of ruins and ruins. ”

"I've heard about it this morning." Chu Ci couldn't guess what Zhou Yunxi was going to say when he heard this, of course, even if he knew, he would follow Zhou Yunxi's words, "Why did the princess mention this?" ”

"The emperor of the burned shop should have heard of it." Zhou Yunxi's voice was still very soft, and at this time, she indifferently looked at Xiling Ying, who was standing silently on the side, before continuing: "That shop is a flower shop under the name of the courtier, and it is also the shop that the emperor suggested the courtiers to open before. "Number Six

As soon as these words came out, Xi Lingying's face became a little stiff. But other than that, there was no other look on her face.

"That shop was burned?"

Chu Ci was a little surprised, he did know that a shop in Beijing burned down in the middle of the night, but he didn't expect it to be a flower shop under Zhou Yunxi's name.

As for Zhou Yunxi saying that it was Chu Ci who suggested that she open a flower shop, this statement is not false. After all, when she was in the flower market, it was 'Lin Xi' who gave her advice.

And 'Lin Xi', isn't it Chu Ci?

"Exactly." Zhou Yunxi was not in a hurry, "Fortunately, at that time, the shopkeeper and Xiao Er and a few people were sober up quickly, and they escaped in time, and they did not lose their lives." However, there are still people injured, and the doctor said, "I'm afraid the leg won't get better." ”

"Is that serious?"

Chu Ci noticed that Zhou Yunxi glanced at Xiling Ying before, and coupled with Zhou Yunxi's words at this time, he had a guess in his heart.

Of course, it's just speculation, and you can't say it.

"The courtiers found this bracelet in the ruins of the fire." Zhou Yunxi raised his eyebrows, took out the bracelet, and offered it with both hands, "Please take a look at the emperor." ”

Hearing this, Chu Ci also motioned to Gonggong Wan to go over and bring the bracelet. After Zhou Yunxi took out the bracelet, Chu Ci had already concluded in his heart.

"Your Majesty, there are wolf teeth on this bracelet, and the people of Da Chu do not have the habit of stringing animal teeth as ornaments and wearing them on their bodies, but they are ...... in the Western Regions" This was said by Wan Gonggong, his voice was very low, but it was enough for everyone in the imperial study to hear, "This ......"

"It is precisely because of the wolf teeth on this bracelet that the courtiers will enter the palace and ask to see the emperor." Zhou Yunxi saw that Gonggong Wan hesitated and continued, "Your Majesty, the courtiers implore the Emperor to investigate this matter thoroughly!" ”

After hearing this, Chu Ci's face also changed slightly, but he did not answer Zhou Yunxi's words in a hurry, but looked at Xiling Ying, who was standing quietly on the side.

I don't know how long it took before I saw Xiling Ying sigh lightly, took a step forward, saluted Chu Ci, and then spoke, saying: "I people in the Western Regions do prefer to wear animal teeth as bracelet ornaments, I don't deny this." ”

"There's no way the princess can deny it."

Zhou Yunxi's voice was a little lower, and a pair of eyes looked at Xiling Ying, and her face looked a little gloomy.

"The princess is right." Xiling Ying was not annoyed, only looked at Zhou Yunxi, and continued slowly: "But why can this bracelet fall on the fire so easily?" ”

"I deplore the burning down of the shop in the name of the princess, the capital is prosperous, and the money spent to buy a store will not be a small amount."

"But even so, the princess can't be calm that it was done by my people from the Western Regions, right?" As he spoke, Xiling Ying's words were stunned, and then he continued: "Even a few days ago, my merchant from the Western Regions came to seek cooperation with the princess and was rejected, and he would not do such a thing. ”

"Besides, in the capital, where did they get the courage?"

This remark made Zhou Yunxi's face sink a little, and his eyes when he looked at Xiling Ying became a little deep. She didn't expect Xi Lingying to be in the imperial study at this time, and she didn't expect her to mention that Xi Fan Lin wanted to cooperate with her first!
