"Your Royal Highness Princess, please rest assured, I will definitely investigate this matter very clearly, and I will definitely give an explanation to the people of the capital, Her Royal Highness Princess don't have to worry, if you are afraid now, I can send soldiers to protect you back."

Chu Xiaoxiang shook his head slightly, feeling a little curious in the face of this matter, if he didn't investigate it clearly, he was really a little uncomfortable in his heart, seeing that a person died in front of him, and the other party said something like that before he died, even if he didn't want to get involved in this matter, it was estimated that the empress would definitely drag her into the water, rather than being dragged into the water by others, it was better to ask now.

"What's going on with this guy? Why did he say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was wronged before he died, this matter should not be taken care of, but since he said such things in front of me, it seems that I am sorry for his soul if I don't ask clearly. ”

"Your Royal Highness Princess, I don't know about this matter, only if I tell the emperor first, can I know it."

The other party said a few words respectfully, and Chu Xiaoxiang didn't dwell on it after hearing it, stroked his chest, made a somewhat weak appearance, reached out and grabbed Helian Chen's hand, and then leaned half of his body on his shoulder.

"Since the general has nothing to ask, then I will return to the palace with the horse first, I really can't see such a thing."

After hearing this, the other party nodded again and again, and deliberately sent a pair of people to protect them back, and after the three people were escorted back, Chu Xiaoxiang stood up straight, and was slightly relieved to see these people stay away.

"It's been so clear just now, this general shouldn't come to look for it again, I just don't know how he is going to tell the empress about this, in fact, he can take this credit, and no one will say anything more at that time."

"What you think is too simple, he will definitely drag you into the water, after all, his identity can't withstand the anger of the empress, and you are different, you are the princess of Ji Kingdom."

Ye Yuntian chuckled lightly beside him, feeling that what Chu Xiaoxiang thought was really a little simple, whoever encountered such a situation would drag a person with a strong identity into the water, so that he could ensure his safety, if he was a smart person, of course, there were stupid people who would not choose to do this.

"I believe that this matter should have a result by the evening, and if the empress learns the news, she should soon summon you to the palace."

Chu Xiaoxiang pondered slowly, feeling that this matter was not simple, those murderers were the people of the capital at a glance, and the people who lived in the capital must be high-ranking officials and dignitaries, and killers in captivity under the hands of high-ranking officials and dignitaries, this is also normal, and they specially do some things for them that cannot be handled openly.

"It's not easy to be a prince, not only to prevent his brothers and sisters from secretly attacking him, but also to prevent those officials who disagree with him, everyone has their own party, and they never know whether the people around them are true or false to him."

Chu Xiaoxiang sighed a few words, and didn't say anything more, Helian Chen instead clenched her hand.

"Since you feel irritable, then don't think about these things, just leave these things to me to deal with, anyway, now that the two countries have reached a basic covenant, and they have also agreed to merchant exchanges, as for the marriage contract between you and Feng Yiyang, it can actually be completely dissolved."

Chu Xiaoxiang chuckled lightly after hearing this, and then reached out and pinched his cheek, a touch of cunning flashed in his eyes.

"I'm jealous to hear your good news, but these things are also the covenant between me and Feng Yiyang, there are still important things to do between me and him, but it doesn't prevent me from cooperating with him, by the way, there is only a good relationship for me, there is no harm to me, and we will dissolve this marriage after the cooperation is over."

Sure enough, just like Ye Yuntian said, that night, the empress summoned all of them into the palace, and specially asked Chu Xiaoxiang to bring Helian Chen over, on the way, Chu Xiaoxiang kept muttering to herself, the empress wanted to leave Helian Chen in the palace last time, could it be that the empress didn't give up after the last refusal, otherwise why did she emphasize bringing Helian Chen over.

When they arrived at the place, they realized what was going on, and they were standing outside the study and heard the empress reprimand the ministers.

"You bunch of waste, since such a thing happened in the capital, wouldn't it be a joke for the people of the country, and do you know how serious this kind of thing will be if it spreads, the evidence of the prince's rebellion is conclusive, you told me one by one that you want to abolish the prince, and now the prince is in prison, and now you tell me that the prince was wronged, why is it all up to you to judge the country?"

Those ministers trembled with fright one by one, and they didn't say a word, the empress's expression became more and more cold, Chu Xiaoxiang saw him, basically he looked very charitable, and it was the first time to see him so majestic, it was like a different person all of a sudden, and Chu Xiaoxiang didn't say anything.

"I don't care what you think in your hearts, now I will elect someone to come out, help me find out this matter thoroughly, and give you three days."

After hearing this, the prime minister shrank slightly, and then spoke in a low voice.

"Empress, three days is too short, even if we want to investigate, we can't find out, not to mention that now the witness is dead, and I don't know where the evidence he said is."

"Rubbish!"

With this scolding, the vase in the room fell to the ground, the empress smashed it with the vase, and the ground was suddenly shattered, and then let all those officials get out, and then began to summon Chu Xiaoxiang, Chu Xiaoxiang touched his nose when he entered, and thought in his heart which one the empress was singing, generally things like this between countries will not be known to others, after all, it is their own business behind closed doors, and if others know, wouldn't it be a joke for others to see.

But the empress didn't seem to have any scruples at all, but put all this in front of him, which made her feel a little puzzled in her heart, and the more she knew, the less good it would be for her, and the more suspicious she was now, the empress was not at ease.

"Princess Chu, what happened just now really made you see a joke, it was all these officials, one by one, they were not angry, they made so many things, and they also frightened you on the street."

"Why did the empress say such things, it's just a trivial matter, I didn't take it to heart at all, the empress doesn't have to be polite."

After hearing this, the other party finally showed a charitable smile on his face, but Chu Xiaoxiang always felt that the other party was like an old fox, calculating her little by little, although she didn't know what the empress wanted to calculate.

"Is there anything important that the Empress suddenly called me with the pony?"

"You're with me now, so it's just a marriage now, but soon you'll have a wedding, so we're a family now, whether the prince's rebellion is true or not, can't be known to outsiders, but your identity is different, so even if you know, it's nothing, I called you over today just to discuss with you."

After Chu Xiaoxiang heard this, she unconsciously clenched her hand, thinking that she really didn't want to be treated as a family, what was the meaning of these words, she felt a little weird, but the other party had already said so, and it would be a bit too shameful for her to refute at this time.

"What the empress said is, but I am not completely together with the fourth prince now, so even if the empress doesn't tell me, I will definitely not say anything, not to mention that I don't know much about the affairs of this court, and everything that happened during the day today is purely just a coincidence."

Chu Xiaoxiang said this to express his resignation, and he didn't want to get into trouble, but the expression on the empress's face became more and more brilliant, and she completely regarded Chu Xiaoxiang as a family, and no one knew if she thought so in her heart.

"Princess Chu doesn't have to be so polite, in fact, I called you over today because I want to ask you for help, I heard that the concubine is very talented, even when he is in the kingdom of Ji, he can also help your royal brother deal with a lot of government affairs, so I want to ask the concubine to help deal with this matter, and investigate whether the prince has magic or not, and who is behind this matter."

His eyes widened in surprise, and then he subconsciously wanted to shake his head.

"Your Majesty, the concubine and I are not from the Yue country after all, if you deal with this matter, it will inevitably not be convincing, and there are many people who know about this matter, I am afraid that people from the outside world will make irresponsible remarks about these things, not only that, this matter has been too far away, and it is not easy to find out now, whether His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has rebelled, this is a state matter, and I am not good at interfering with the concubine."

Chu Xiaoxiang hurriedly excused herself, this is a pool of troubled water, if she falls into it now, it will be very difficult to get out again, she has no intention of making herself a pawn on the chessboard.

The empress sighed deeply and made a helpless look.

"The princess doesn't have to be polite, since I have already said it, I must trust the princess in this way, not to mention this matter, it is because the princess is not a person from my country who can meddle, so that I can find out what is going on in this matter more objectively, if others find out, I am afraid that there will be their own selfishness."

Hehe!

Chu Xiaoxiang sneered in his heart, he didn't want to accept this kind of trust at all, this was obviously pushing them into the fire pit, now the forces of the Yue Kingdom are complicated, once they are not handled well, they will be deeply involved, not only that, if they offend the forces of either side, it is not a good thing for them.

"Since Her Majesty is already so rich, it is better to be respectful than to obey her fate, and I will try my best to give Her Majesty a satisfactory answer to this matter, but I hope that Her Majesty will be able to give her a little more leniency."

At this time, Helian Chen suddenly opened his mouth and agreed to this matter, and after seeing Chu Xiaoxiang's eyes, he slightly hooked the corners of his lips, reassuring Chu Xiaoxiang.

The Empress had a relieved expression on her face, and she seemed to be pleased.

"In that case, this matter is settled, and I hope the colt can solve my worries."
