Xun Xuan slowly turned around when she heard the sound, but saw Jing Yi standing in the distance with his hands in his hands, with a handsome face with a calmness that did not belong to his age.

"It's you again, Xun Zhi." A chill gradually appeared in Jing Yi's eyes.

Xun Xuan smiled and stood up: "It's so late, why did the emperor suddenly come here?" ”

Jing Yi squinted his eyes at Xun Xuan, and asked in a cold voice, "Didn't you deliberately provoke me to come?" ”

Xun Xuan lowered her eyes, and her long eyelashes covered the emotions under her eyes: "The people's daughter doesn't have the courage to do this, since the emperor is here, the people's daughter will leave and not disturb the emperor." ”

After that, Xun Xuan got up and was about to walk towards the door, but Jing Yi suddenly stepped forward and grabbed her wrist, and her force was slightly rude: "Who are you?" ”

Xun Xuan's eyes flickered, and she made a look of grievance on her face: "The people's daughter is Xun Zhi, why does the emperor ask so?" ”

"Lie!" Jing Yi's face was full of frost, he looked at Xun Xuan coldly, and his tone was indifferent, "Painting water lilies on Kong Ming lanterns is the habit of the Empress Dowager, I ordered someone to take down your Kong Ming lantern, and the water lilies are clearly made by the Empress Dowager!" I know her handwriting very well, and you still want to hide it from me? ”

Xun Xuan struggled to pull her wrist out of Jing Yi's hand, then took a few steps back in fear, gently rubbed her wrist with her fingers, lowered her head and said carefully: "My sister taught me to draw water lilies." ”

"Impossible! Even if she teaches you, it is impossible to even have the same pen, say! Is Xun Xuan not dead, is she still alive! Jing Yi's eyes were full of terrifying killing intent.

He wanted Xun Xuan to die, she couldn't even see the slightest guilt and uneasiness in his eyes, this is Jing Yi, this is the good emperor she grew up with!

Xun Xuan couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly.

Jing Yi looked at Xun Xuan's smile, and suddenly panicked for a moment: "What are you laughing at?" Don't laugh without my permission! ”

Listening to the tone, it seemed to be a little childish and vexatious, but Xun Xuan knew that this was a manifestation of Jing Yi's lack of heart. Xun Xuan knew him too well.

Xun Xuan gently lowered the sleeves of her face-covering coat and looked at Jing Yi with a deep gaze: "I didn't expect the emperor to know my sister so well." ”

"In this case, can the emperor be willing to sit down and accompany Ah Zhi to paint a few more water lilies, I want to put more Kong Ming lanterns for my sister to pray for blessings, I hope she can be happy in the sky." Xun Xuan opened a pair of innocent eyes and looked at Jing Yi expectantly.

Facing this face that was seven or eight points similar to Xun Xuan, and facing the girl's clean eyes full of hope, the killing intent on Jing Yi's body finally gradually converged.

A few water lilies were painted as fast as they were, and as soon as Xun Xuan put down the cinnabar pen in his hand, a noise suddenly came from outside the silent door.

"Guifei Niangniang, why are you here on this big night?"

"Get out of the way! Where do you want to go, do you have to report to you? ”

As soon as the voice fell, the door was pushed open forcefully, and Zhu Sinong's slender and straight figure appeared in the Buddhist hall.

"Why is the emperor here? The concubine is still asleep! Zhu Sinong stepped forward gracefully and leaned on Jing Yi's shoulder delicately.

But tonight's Jing Yi had a very bad attitude towards Zhu Sinon, and directly stretched out his hand and pushed the person aside: "The concubine doesn't have a good rest, what are you doing running out so late?" ”

Regardless of whether Zhu Sinong's purpose was Jing Yi or Xun Zhi, Jing Yi would not allow anyone to play tricks under his nose.

Xun Xuan glanced at the bowl of soup held by the palace maid behind Zhu Sinon: "Could this soup be prepared by the noble concubine for the emperor?" ”

"Before the concubine came, I didn't know that the emperor was here, and the concubine heard that Miss Xun was chanting in the Buddhist hall, so she kindly sent you some soup to make supper." After that, Xun Xuan brought the soup from the maid's hand and handed it directly to Xun Xuan's eyes.

Xun Xuan stared straight at the bowl of soup, and was about to reach out to pick it up, but Zhu Sinong's hand suddenly trembled, and the bowl of soup fell straight to the ground.

"Bang" There was a crisp cracking sound.

"Oh, look at me, I was so careless that I actually knocked over a good bowl of soup!" Zhu Sinong pretended to snort softly, then turned around and ordered the maid, "Why don't you call someone in to clean up the pieces, don't hurt the emperor again!" ”

Zhu Sinong's thoughts, Xun Xuan is clear. If Jing Yi wasn't here today, I'm afraid that this bowl of soup would not be overturned, but would be poured into Xun Xuan's throat by Zhu Sinong's own hands.

"Then you can clean up here alone, Zhi! Come with me! After that, Jing Yi didn't even look at Zhu Sinong, his cold fingers took Xun Xuan's hand, and walked straight towards the door.

"What?" A touch of stunned instantly flashed across Zhu Sinong's face, and he looked at Jing Yi's departing back incredulously, his eyes were full of crazy jealousy and anger, "Your Majesty! ”

She followed unwillingly and grabbed Jing Yi's clothes: "Your Majesty, how can you just leave your concubine like this?" ”

Jing Yi flicked his clothes impatiently, and the fragrance of ambergris on his sleeve robe spread out in all directions, with a majestic aura: "I warned you not to deceive me, and you have taken my words as a deaf ear?" ”

Zhu Sinong thought that his careful thoughts could easily escape Jing Yi's eyes, but in fact, from the moment she entered the door, Jing Yi had already guessed the purpose of her coming.

If Zhu Sinong just retreated obediently, but she had to treat him as a fool to deceive, such a clumsy trick, he felt embarrassed for her when he saw it, and she still asked him with a cheerful face.

"You've been with me for so long, you should know that what I hate the most in my life is the deception of others!" Jing Yi waved his hand violently and pushed Zhu Sinong to the ground.

Zhu Sinong has not been so embarrassed for a long time, but all of this is thanks to Xun Zhi, she didn't expect that a Xun Xuan would die, and there would be a second person in this world who could control Jing Yi's emotions so easily.

Zhu Sinong is more and more determined, that is, Xun Zhi, a woman, will definitely not be kept!

……

"The concubine has already murdered you, you will stay here tonight." Jing Yi took Xun Xuan to the next room where he lived, and the entire courtyard was full of secret guards inside and out, so that no killer could break into here.

"The emperor didn't want to kill me before, why did he save me now?" Xun Xuan looked at Jing Yi puzzled and asked.

Jing Yi sneered, and a touch of cruelty flashed across his face: "Don't take yourself too seriously, I just don't like people to do it right under my nose, and when I return to the palace, you can die as much as you want!" ”

"In that case, then the folk girl doesn't need to make a personal promise?" Xun Xuan smiled playfully, and then bowed slightly to Jing Yi, "The people's daughter sends the emperor!" ”

This is a clear order to expel the emperor! When the little eunuch beside Jing Yi saw this posture, he was instantly frightened into a cold sweat.

Jing Yi was not annoyed, and left the house without saying a word, and after ordering someone to lock the door from the outside, there was no movement.

Xun Xuan glanced at the empty room, walked to the couch calmly, and lay down.

She didn't want to involve Cousin Fu, and only here could she completely save her life tonight.

Zhu Sinon, you are really anxious, you are in a hurry to take my life when we first met.

She only moved her mind slightly, and Zhu Sinon couldn't wait to hook herself.

Now that the emperor and Zhu Sinong have a falling out, all this is ...... It's just a welcome gift for her!

Since the other party wants to do things absolutely well, then she does not recommend that this veil be completely pierced.

……

Early the next morning, when Xun Xuan woke up, the lock that had fallen outside the door had been opened.

There was no accompanying maid to serve her, so Xun Xuan could only tidy up her makeup at will, and then went out of the yard alone.

didn't go back overnight, Fu Rongrong was afraid that she was worried for a long time.

As a result, Xun Xuan didn't go far when she heard Liu's shout of grabbing the sky: "Lord Zhu, you must be the master for me, the steward next to me didn't come back last night, and when I got up early this morning, I found her body in this small bamboo forest, this is someone who wants to deliberately murder!" ”

Although Zhu Wei understood what was going on in his heart, he had to pretend to be out of the way on the surface: "Mrs. Liu, this murder case, the old man can't stop it, it is more appropriate to hand it over to Dali Temple in accordance with the rules." ”

At this moment, many people have gathered in the small bamboo forest, and most of the officials who drove forward this time watched the excitement here.

Anyway, the first queen mother's life is over, and everyone is ready to go home, but it's just a dead minion, and everyone doesn't care much about it, so it's a joke.

But Liu's reaction was too aggressive, and he didn't look like a dead minion, but more like a dead mother.

Among the officials present, Zhu Wei had the largest official position, and Zhu Wei and Anfu had in-laws, so the Liu family caught Zhu Wei and poured bitter water.

Zhu Wei was also very distressed, and he couldn't get away when he was entangled and wanted to leave, so he could only persuade: "The matter has come to this, Mrs. Liu mourns!" ”

"I wish my lord, the women feel that this matter is full of suspicions, and I also wish the adults to make decisions for the women!"

"How do you want the old man to make decisions for you?" Zhu Wei asked impatiently.

"The maid who served Miss Xun yesterday came to report that Xun Zhi did not go back to the house to rest all night, and the death of this steward must be inseparable from Xun Zhi!" Liu Shi took a bite of Xun Xuan, and his tone was full of anger.

Zhu Wei frowned, worried that this matter would involve him, and then said: "Mrs. Liu, everything must be evidenced, even if Miss Xun Zhi does not return overnight, it cannot be said that she has anything to do with the death of the steward." ”

"But Xun Zhi has an old grudge with the housekeeper, plus she didn't return to a girl's house overnight, if something doesn't happen, where can she go?" Liu's trick is very clever, on the one hand, he successfully splashed the dirty water of the steward's death on Xun Xuan's head, and on the other hand, he said in front of so many people that Xun Zhi did not return all night.

I didn't return all night, which was a fatal blow to the girl who didn't leave the cabinet!

Liu's heart is determined not to let Xun Xuan turn over.

Xun Xuan walked halfway, and saw this scene with her own eyes, and after a pause, she didn't plan to go forward, and turned around and went straight back to Jing Yi's courtyard.

At this moment, Jing Yi was sitting in the room with breakfast, and when he saw Xun Xuan coming back in a hurry, a clear smile appeared on his handsome face, and he was full of juvenile feeling, so that he almost forgot that he was still a scheming ninety-five: "Isn't Miss Xun gone?" How did you come back again? ”

"There was a murder in the temple, and the emperor was asked to move!"
