Furong didn't answer for a long time, she was afraid that what she said at this time would become the pulse of Mu Yuchi's counterattack, but Mu Qingxu had already said urgently: "Knowingly ask." ”

Boudoir Chi sneered, stared at Mu Furong with his eyes, and turned his eyes. Mu Furong felt as if her body was soaked in cold ice water, and that look made her feel a little scared. Gripping Xuan Xi's arm in his hand, he controlled his fingers that were about to tremble.

At this time, Xuan Xi's eyes were crossing Mu Jichi's swollen shoulders that were beaten, and he said in his heart: "It stands to reason that it is indeed impossible for Mu Jichi to find the Octagonal Pavilion alone, this seems to be an unknown situation, and there must be something I don't know about." But this woman is vicious and ruthless, and this king must not be deceived by her. Thinking about looking at Mu Furong again, a pretty face was pale and aggrieved, leaning on his side, grabbing his arm, it seemed to be a little strong, and he was even more distressed in his heart and secretly thought: "Furong is so weak, if it weren't for this poisonous scorpion woman, she wouldn't have suffered today's catastrophe, as long as Aunt Shengping leaves, no matter how she quibbles, this king will let her suffer enough and throw her into prison, so as to solve the hatred in the king's heart!" ”

A gust of hot wind came in through the cracks, but Mu Furong couldn't help but shiver, she was a little scrupled at this time. With Princess Shengping present, she couldn't speak casually, but she was afraid of missing a flaw.

However, as long as there is a king, as long as there is a mystery, Mu Furong will have a trump card. She hurriedly went over what Mu Qingchi said in her mind, and gave Mu Qingxu a look, meaning to ask Mu Qingxu not to speak again. But at this time, Mu Qingxu was focused on Gu Changfeng wholeheartedly, and just wanted to condemn Mu Jiu to death, and he couldn't wait to catch up with each sentence and implement the crime first. Seeing this scene, Mu Furong was stunned, but she was afraid that she would be exposed.

Her face sank and she coughed twice. His eyes shifted from the trembling minion to the window, but he saw the breeze blowing the willows, the winding corridor, the octagonal pavilion on the small island in the middle of the lake, surrounded by swaying lotus leaves and lotus flowers, and a few small boats wandering around.

At that time, this girl should have been dealt with in the octagonal pavilion! Just push it down the lake and drown, the province is so troublesome now!

Mu Furong pretended to be gentle and smiled at Xuan Xi, who was looking at her with concern, and pulled Xuan Xi's sleeve and shook her head.

This Mu Xiaojiu seems to have changed a person!

I was already very nervous in my heart.

Mu Furong made up her mind, she was a woman who wanted to be the princess and aspired to be in the back, how could she be dragged by a stumbling block like Mu Yuchi at the beginning. How can you achieve great things if you are so breathless? Anyway, this time, she had to be calm.

Mu Furong was calm, leaning on Xuan Xi's body and no longer speaking.

I saw that the lady sneered at the royal king Xuan Xi who was glaring at him angrily, and turned to stare at the three minions.

The minions and guards in the warm pavilion were all suppressed by the concubine, especially the three minions who committed perjury, Mu Qingxu, who was originally a light enemy, came here temporarily, and even taught them a few nonsense words with threats and lure, they knew that this Mu Jiu girl had always been dull, and Mu Si girl was the one who immediately became the master of the princess in her own house, where did she dare not listen to her words, so she hurriedly agreed to Mu Qingxu. Who knew that this Mu Jiu girl Mu Jiu had changed a person, she was quick to think and articulate, and she was about to expose her lie when she saw it, and this lie was exposed, the four girls and the seventh girl of the Mu family would inevitably splash all the dirty water on themselves, and the king or the princess of Shengping would kill people immediately, and you would have no place to shout injustice, so the three minions were so frightened that their legs trembled.

The boudoir broke off and snorted, and the three of them were even more frightened.

One of the minions didn't choose what to say, so he could only twist his neck and weave it down, and said in a panic: "You, you found the Octagonal Pavilion, maybe, maybe you heard about it......"

"What I heard ......" Mu Jichi smiled, then brought the teacup plate on the wooden table and placed it in front of the eyes of several minions, staring at them with deep eyes: "Look at it, what is the difference between these cups ......?" ”

Not good!

Mu Furong knew that she was in a hurry, and her heart was suddenly numb, her face was pale, she pretended to cough a few times, and Huo Di got up: "Xuanxi, I, I'm so uncomfortable." Let's not ask any more questions. ”

"You sit down~" Princess Shengping said slowly.

Mu Furong was like a little bird at the moment, snuggling weakly in Xuan Xi's arms, Mu Furong smiled: "Fourth sister, don't be impatient." As he spoke, his face turned pale, and he reprimanded the three of them mercilessly:

"I admire the fourth sister, I love the king, so I hate the fourth sister, I am so jealous, I want to poison her, poison and kill her, I don't choose where, I have to do it in the palace where I am not familiar with and have no cronies, I hate the fourth sister, poison her teacup, I was a guest of the palace for the first time, in less than a cup of tea, I found the octagonal pavilion alone, and the teacup happened to be on the table, what is even more strange is that these six teacups are exactly the same, but I can get down to the fourth sister's teacup impartially! I'm so scheming! So wise! I can still let the three of you see it!! ”

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the whole room changed. There was no trace of blood on Mu Furong's face, she left the arms of the royal king, and looked at Mu Fuchi in surprise, obviously, she didn't expect the result to be like this at all.

Mu Qingxu said eagerly: "Maybe it's where they are, just you didn't see it." ”

"People who do bad things are always a little jealous. How can you not observe your surroundings? Seventh sister, am I stupid or are you stupid? She glanced at Mu Qingxu and didn't pay attention to her anymore.

"I, I was afraid you would see me, so I hid." One of the minions stammered, and all three of them trembled slightly, knowing in their hearts that if the matter was revealed, they would be scapegoats.

Boudoir raised her eyebrows, looked at the minions who spoke, and scolded:

"Hiding? Good! I ask you! What were you doing when you said you saw me? ”

"Minion, minion is on the boat, cutting lotus."

"You tell me, you hold scissors, even if you put down the oars, the boat will still keep swimming, the lotus flower in this royal palace is more than half a foot high, you are bent on cutting the lotus, but also to prevent me from seeing, how to hide the boat in this lotus bush? Moreover, after the fourth sister was poisoned, you immediately came to report it, and before you had time to change your clothes, there were no muddy water stains on the cuffs of your trousers!! Tell me, how exactly do you cut lotus flowers, how do you meet me? ”

"I, I ......"

All the people's eyes widened, Mu Jichi was so simple and clear-minded, and the other party was speechless! Mu Furong's hand trembled, her breath became tense, and her eyes kept looking at Mu Qingxu. At this time, Mu Qingxu was stunned, how could she have thought that Mu Xiaojiu, who had been bullied and abused by them since she was a child, had become so aggressive.

The girl was shining, and took a step closer to the minion: "You go now, row the boat and cut the lotus, you go over and look up at the octagonal pavilion you said, can you see the people and things in the pavilion?" ”

Princess Shengping crossed her fingers with her hands together and sighed: "The lotus leaves are so dense, the place pointed by this slave looks at the octagonal pavilion, and there are tea trees to block it, so I can......'t see it clearly."

"I, I remember wrong, I wasn't there at the time, I ......"

Mu Qingxu didn't expect that her temperament would change drastically, and she would peel off the personnel and tricks that were unfavorable to her, she definitely didn't expect that there would be such a thing in front of her now, that Mu Xiaojiu smashed the key points against the so-called witness testimony, and the other party had no power to fight back.

Mu Qingxu stared at Mu Qianchi, and then at the minion, not knowing what to do.

Princess Shengping's wheezing voice was still very calm and peaceful, but there was a trace of gloom in her eyes, and her eyebrows and eyes were slightly pressed.

At this time, the other minions had already been attacked.

She pointed to the placket of the minion's clothes, on which the words "Imperial Mansion in the Mansion" were embroidered with silver thread, and said sharply: "You said you were sweeping the floor?" ”

The minion replied categorically that he was sweeping the floor.

At this time, it was already noon to the west, and the unshaded places outside the octagonal pavilion were stone roads that would scorch and burn their feet if they touched the ground. The look in his eyes is colder:

"At the time of the incident, it was almost the end of the day, you slaves who were responsible for sweeping the floor, they were all out of the hour, and they returned at the end of the day, only in the autumn did they clean the fallen leaves all day long, and now it was the height of summer, and you were not in the back hall to prepare to cool off the cold and ice, and you were sweeping the floor here?!"

The slave was startled and said nonsense: "Today, today the top sent a slave to sweep the floor, and the slave came to sweep the floor early in the morning." ”

"That's better, in the morning, you subordinates have a book of attendance, when you were sent out for something, there is a record, we will check." It's just that you look outside, the sun is like fire, and the stone road has long been burned to burn your feet, but you are wearing soft-soled cloth shoes in the inner house, just for the summer light and silent, not the thick-soled linen shoes on the verandah at all, if as you said, you go outside to sweep the floor in the morning, you must have slightly burned marks on your feet first, do you dare to take off your shoes here to see the injury? ”

Mu Furong said leisurely: "Xiao Jiu is messing around, even if this slave is exaggerated and lazy elsewhere, you shouldn't say this, how can there be an official eunuch and a noble lady who has not come out of the cabinet and asks to see the slave's feet." ”

The boudoir was silent, as if she had let go of the minion, and turned her head again to look at the maid who gave the snack.

"And you! You said you saw me when you delivered refreshments, what kind of refreshments did you give? ”

"Slave, the slave maid is sending frost lotus root cake."

"Is it really Frost Lotus Root Cake?" She asked again: "Everyone, is the dim sum you ate today frost lotus root cake?" ”

"Not really." King Mu replied first: "The frost lotus root cake in the back kitchen of Xuanxi is a good thing to cool off this summer, and today's frost lotus root cake is especially snow-white and clear, crispy and sweet in the mouth. None of our other back-of-house kitchens have this kind of craftsmanship. ”

"It's indeed Frost Lotus Root Cake." The slave replied aloud.

"Okay." Boudoir Chi wiped her palms that had blood coagulated, the wound on the back of her hand was still painful, her eyes were cold to the bone, but she didn't have a seizure, but she asked lightly like a parent: "The frost lotus root cake pays attention to the soft and fragrant mouth, but when you bite into it, it is crispy, and the lotus root is delicious when it is fresh, is it like this?" ”

"Yes, yes......" replied the maidservant hastily.

Princess Shengping's face was expressionless, her bearing was graceful, and her expression did not change at all.
