"What's wrong?" Zhou Jin noticed Xu Shu's movements and asked.

"You...... Where did you just go? Xu Shu raised her head and moved away from Zhou Jin slightly, her intuition and common sense told her that the smell of incense belonged to a woman.

Although Zhuang Li had already said it, Xu Shu still asked, in fact, she could have said it directly, but somehow, the ghost made God ask such a sentence.

"I went to Pingning Palace!" Zhou Jin didn't hide it, "There is an unexpected gain when I go this time!" ”

"What's the catch?"

"I saw a man in the palace, guess who?"

"Is it Xu Ting?"

Zhou Jin shook his head and chuckled, "How do you know?" ”

"I just talked about Xu Ting at noon, you deliberately came to ask now, I think it should be her!"

"That's her!" Zhou Jin nodded, "I went to the palace to send Gao Zhinan, but I didn't expect to meet Xu Ting on the way!" ”

"Did she go to Gao Zhinan?"

"Yes! However, ......" Zhou Jin frowned, putting aside Xu Ting's bad deeds and vicious behaviors to Xu Shu, Xu Ting still gave Zhou Jin an extremely uncomfortable feeling.

"But what? Could it be that she had other purposes? Xu Shu guessed casually.

And Zhou Jin nodded in agreement, "I remember you said that Xu Ting is a lady who looks gentle and obedient, even if she has thousands of calculations in her heart, she looks like she is also elegant and virtuous!" Isn't it? ”

"Yes...... She is used to acting in front of people, and the front and back are completely different faces! ”

Xu Shu will always remember Xu Ting's contemptuous sentence when she mentioned her, "It's just a blind person", her attachment to family affection began to collapse at a moment, and the nostalgia that even Li's bowl of poison could not kill finally withered at that moment.

"But the Xu Ting I saw today......" Zhou Jin frowned again, pursed his lips in disgust, and his expression was as distorted as he wanted, "It's very different from what you said!" ”

"What's the difference?"

"I originally planned to go to Concubine Zhen to say goodbye first, and then go to Xiaocui Garden, but I met Xu Ting on the way, but I saw it from a distance through the flower garden, and it wasn't even a passing by, but she deliberately came around to greet me!"

Xu Ting is someone else's internal relative, and she should avoid seeing a foreign man, even if this is in someone else's house, even if this person is the prince, there is absolutely no reason to come forward to ask for peace alone, so not to avoid suspicion, it really doesn't look like what a well-informed lady should do.

Xu Shu tugged at the corners of her mouth, "In the past, in order to cling to Prince Long An, she probably did this kind of embarrassing thing!" ”

"I was going to leave after she asked for peace, she probably saw that I was going to Fuxian Residence, and even said that she was also going to ask Concubine Zhen for peace, and she wanted to go with me!"

Speaking of this, Zhou Jin's face was extremely awkward, he had never seen someone like Xu Ting who did not shy away from suspicion at all, and took the initiative to cling to it, it was simply ...... It's shameless!

Xu Shu remembered that Deng Yarong said that Xu Ting used a word when she frequently went in and out of Qi's house, "flowers and branches", and with the strong incense stained by Zhou Jin today, Xu Shu seemed to have guessed Xu Ting's purpose, and her face suddenly turned strange.

"Xu Shu, is she planning to ...... "Are you planning to seduce Zhou Jin?" Could it be that she did the same to Prince Long An before? It's just Xu Ting's posture...... Prince Long An probably doesn't like it.

Zhou Jin's face was very ugly, "Although I don't want to think so, but you guess it should be similar to what I think!" ”

Zhou Jin is handsome and the crown prince, so there are naturally not a few people who will fall in love with him, but what Xu Shu didn't expect was that Xu Ting, who was already a wife, would still have such thoughts, did she plan to cling to Zhou Jin and become the imperial concubine in the future?

Being an imperial concubine is indeed better than being a down-and-out princess who is not favored, and her husband is still lame and can't inherit the title, and judging from the difficult situation of the heirs of the royal family of Dayin, as long as she can give birth to an heir, she is the hero of Dayin, as for her past, she can be ignored, and from then on she can be dressed and majestic.

"So you went with her?" Xu Shu teasingly "looked" at Zhou Jin.

Zhou Jin frowned in disgust, "How is it possible!" I turned around and left, she still had to follow, and she was not willing to be stopped! Later, I heard that she had been staying in Xiaocuiyuan, so I came back! ”

First, Zhou Jin was really afraid of Xu Ting's behavior, and second, with Xu Ting there, it was not so convenient to send Gao Zhinan, so Zhou Jin had to stop.

"That's fine, if you just send Gao Zhinan so impulsively, the court should be lively again tomorrow!" Gao Zhinan was punished, the Gao family could not sit idly by, and the Fu family definitely didn't want to abolish this move so soon.

Zhou Jin smiled, "Don't worry, no matter how lively it is, no one will go to the Gao family, after all, one less opponent, your chances of winning will be one point bigger!" ”

Xu Shu couldn't help but think of what Zhuang Li said about Zhou Jin's purpose of keeping those women, what was Zhou Jin keeping them for? Now that the overall situation has been decided, Zhou Jin doesn't really need their mother's family!

"In this way, your trip back to the palace is also very lively!"

Zhou Jin nodded, "But after a quarter of an hour's effort, all of them came to Fuxian Ju to ask for peace, and Concubine Zhen said that Fuxian Ju has not been so lively for a long time!" ”

Zhou Jin lived in Jingyuan, Jingyuan was nominally given to Zhou Jin by the Queen Mother, but Concubine Zhen was left in the Pingning Palace, Zhou Jin never went to see it once, everyone saw it in their eyes, and naturally felt that Zhou Jin respected the Queen Mother more than Concubine Zhen, so they tried every means to please the Queen Mother, and Concubine Zhen was naturally estranged.

"Everyone is here, except Gao Zhinan!"

Zhou Jin's tone was flat, but his expression was solemn, so it can be seen that Gao Zhinan is the most scheming one among these people, everyone went, she didn't go, firstly, it seemed that she was not as inflammatory, and secondly, everyone went, she didn't go, but it was more memorable, and everyone went to curry favor with Zhou Jin, she was so maverick that she could attract men.

"As soon as you say that, her purpose has been achieved!" Xu Shu saw through Gao Zhinan's thoughts at a glance, "You haven't noticed or mentioned any of the people who went, only this one who didn't go left traces in your heart!" ”

"So I've been calculated by her?" Zhou Jin couldn't help but smack his tongue, are the twists and turns in a woman's mind so complicated? He still remembered that when he was in Pingliang City, Xu Shu had analyzed Yan Niang's mind for him, and he was amazed at that time, women, it's really incomprehensible!

"It's not counting, but this is the first time you've returned to the palace since you returned to Beijing, and the originally calm pool of spring water in the palace has been wrinkled by you!"
