Zhiqiu just replied with a low "yes" and didn't say anything more for help. Rong Yunxi didn't ask anything more. She already knew everything she should know, and the situation couldn't be more obvious. As for what she didn't know, she asked it secretly and asked it in front of the emperor, naturally it was the latter, which was more beneficial to them.

Maybe if you ask it again, it will be even more unfavorable to them, but the situation is already like this, if the emperor has already decided in his heart that it was Zhiqiu who did it, is he afraid that it will be worse? There is no difference between saying it all and just saying it for a few points, and the result will not be different.

What Rong Yunxi is thinking about now is how much the emperor's heart affirms.

Is it only slightly inclined, or is it almost completely convinced...... If the emperor completely believes that it was Zhiqiu who did it, it is equivalent to fully believing that this is her instructions. It is equivalent to fully believing that she is a woman who will do anything to stabilize her position.

And so, but everything went haywire......

If in his heart, she could be such a woman, then wouldn't the love between them and the understanding between them all become ridiculous? He didn't even believe in her character, so what else could he talk about?

Rong Yunxi only felt that a heart was hanging in her throat, but it was not because she was worried about the outcome of this matter, but because of some feelings that could not be described in words for a while.

Perhaps, it can also be summed up: she wants his trust, not his protection.

The road was quiet, and when he was about to reach Yilan Palace, Li Zhonggui chased after him. reported to the emperor that Xia Guo's body had been thrown into a mass grave, and asked the emperor if he had any other orders.

"It's just right, you go to Yilan Palace with me." The emperor said.

Li Zhonggui is different from other minions, for most of his life in the palace, he not only knows when to be deaf and dumb, but also knows when to be a fool. Take him with him, even if he sees something he shouldn't see, hears something he shouldn't hear, and learns something he shouldn't know, he will forget it later. Because he could clearly know that this was what happened in the Yilan Palace. In Yilan Palace, no matter what happens, as long as the emperor does not pursue it, it is equivalent to not happening.

If it were in normal times, it would be impossible for the emperor to have the slightest doubt about Rong Yunxi, but since the Snow Country was hit, the emperor has had a lot of uncertainties. He trusted Wanxi before, because he could see Wanxi's intention to do this, and everyone in the palace could think of the queen's intention to do so, it was the same - the queen must get rid of the eldest prince in order to stabilize her posteriority.

But this intention is a joke that he won't believe even if Yunxi says it himself, it's too ridiculous. It is impossible to do such a narrow thing with the character of the tide.

But now, the intention of Wanxi that he could see was different from what everyone in the palace could see, so he believed it a little......

But in the end, neither the intention nor the truth matter. The important thing is that he will give her a chance. As long as she wanted to, he could do what he had done.

Entering the Yilan Palace, the emperor went straight to Zhiqiu and Chuxia's room, and no matter what Chuxia was doing at this time, he pushed the door directly and entered. Li Zhonggui hurriedly followed, and shouted into the house: "The emperor has arrived ......"

was originally in front of the dresser looking at the blue ice jade bracelet tears in the early summer, hurriedly wiped away his tears, and hurriedly came forward to say goodbye: "Slave maid to Your Majesty to ask for peace......

After saying the words of asking for peace, I saw Rong Yunxi's embroidered shoes, and then I knew that Rong Yunxi was also there, so I said: "Please ...... for my mother."

Naturally, I also saw it, and I came with it, as well as Zhiqiu. I couldn't help but be surprised. I thought that if Miss and Zhiqiu came to care for her, it would not be strange for the emperor to follow, after all, when they were in the hidden mansion before, the emperor didn't get along with them. But Li Zhonggui also came with him, why is this? It's as if the teacher is asking for sin. But what is she guilty of? I didn't do anything wrong.

The emperor did not let Chu Xia get up, but directly instructed Li Zhonggui: "Lao Li, give me a good search, see if there is daffodil dew in their room, where to put it." ”

"Yes." Li Zhonggui responded. When the emperor was not paying attention, he glanced at Rong Yunxi with some embarrassment, of course he would still do what the emperor ordered.

Seeing the emperor's cold face, Chu Xia had changed from surprise to worry and vigilance, raised his head slightly, and looked at Rong Yunxi carefully......

Rong Yunxi only frowned slightly and shook her head, without giving her any response. How can this matter be explained in one sentence or two? And the matter is indeed very serious, and it is impossible to give her a "nothing" look. It can only make Chu Xia realize that something is really wrong, and everyone should be cautious.

Seeing Rong Yunxi frowning and shaking his head in early summer, he knew that the situation was not good, and he couldn't help but glance at Zhiqiu again. I saw Zhiqiu hiding behind the young lady, hanging his head, clutching his hands, looking scared. In the early summer, he didn't dare to ask more, so he could only kneel quietly and wait.

There was indeed daffodil dew in their room, which she and Zhiqiu used on their bodies on weekdays. Serving in front of Miss and His Majesty all the year round, it is not good to let the smell of sweat smoke His Majesty and Miss! But what can be wrong with this daffodil dew?

They have been using it since they entered the palace, so it is impossible for the emperor to suddenly hate this smell after entering the Weiyang Palace, right? What's more, this room is also full of daffodils, and I don't see any allergies in the emperor!

Seeing Zhiqiu so scared...... Could it be that Zhiqiu got into trouble with the daffodils? The incense box containing daffodils was placed under the dresser, and it had not been touched for a day. And on weekdays, they spill some of the flower dew and put it in the closet, and the clothes in the cabinet will be used again after they are changed, and the incense box will only be taken out once in ten days.

Soon, Li Zhonggui found an elaborate glass incense box containing daffodil dew under the dresser. This exquisitely crafted incense box, which is made of glass, appears in the slave room, which looks a little abrupt. But Miss treats them well, and is willing to give them any good things, this incense box is still brought back by Miss from the frontier, only this one, Miss herself is reluctant to use it, but she has to let them take it.

Seeing this incense box, Zhiqiu, who had been hiding behind Rong Yunxi and calculating to save himself, couldn't help but be a little moved. The young lady treats them so well, but she has caused the young lady a big trouble that is enough to destroy it. At this time, I didn't think about how to make up for my mistakes, but only thought about how to save myself, how to be worthy of Miss? Has your conscience been eaten by dogs? It's her fault in the first place, even if the young lady is so angry that she doesn't care about her, it's understandable, right?

Li Zhonggui handed the incense box to the emperor with both hands, and said, "Your Majesty, this should be the incense box containing the incense dew. ”

The emperor took it, this incense box is very exquisitely made, just the size of the emperor's palm, open the arc-shaped lid, you can't directly see the fragrance inside, in the lid, there is a sealed flat lid to prevent the fragrance from leaking. In this way, a small compartment is formed between the two lids, so that the incense box actually has two layers. It's just that the upper layer is smaller, only enough to put a small hairpin.

In early summer and autumn, the hairpin will naturally not be put here, and it is not convenient to hold it on weekdays, isn't it an extra move? But it's not idle, it's a few pieces of red paper. Put the red paper in it, so that the red paper is stained with the aroma of flower dew, so that the lips and teeth are fragrant when you purse your lips. Girls usually do that.

But at this time, there were sporadic white powders on the red paper in the incense box. Although there are not many, you can always see it at a glance on this red paper.

The emperor picked up the red paper and sniffed it, handed it to Li Zhonggui, and said, "You smell it, is this smell on the calfskin?" ”

Li Zhonggui took it with both hands, sniffed it carefully, and frowned: "Your Majesty, the slave is confused, and he has forgotten what the smell is on that small piece of paper...... Anyway, it smells like daffodils, but it smells pretty much the same. ”

The emperor handed the incense box to Chu Xia and said, "Even if this glass incense box is placed in the rooms of the masters in the palace, it is a rare thing. It's a good thing, but it's good to put away. ”

In the early summer, he was confused by the emperor, so he had to take it and said, "Yes." ”

The emperor took the red paper stained with sporadic white spots from Li Zhonggui's hand, handed it to Zhiqiu, and said, "It's very fragrant, eat it." ”

Zhiqiu was shocked, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, "Your Majesty spares your life...... Your Majesty spares your life...... It really wasn't made by slaves...... Ask Your Majesty to know which ......"

"You didn't do it, how do you know what's up there? This piece of red paper has always been held by me and Li Zhonggui, how can you see the white dots on it when you hide behind it? Isn't it because you're worried that when you're taking something, something will spill out, so you're so scared? The emperor asked with a smile.

Hearing the emperor's words, Rong Yunxi's heart instantly pinched, and it hurt. The emperor asked this, and it seems that he really recognized it.

He didn't believe her.

"You suddenly took a piece of red paper for people to eat, who are you for, can you not be afraid? After all, this thing is not for eating. Rong Yunxi said lightly.

The emperor glanced at Rong Yunxi, the smile in his eyes gradually converged, squinted his eyes, and probed his eyes into her eyes. However, there was no slightest wave in her calm eyes, so that even if she tried her best, she couldn't find any clues.

In fact, even at this moment, he didn't fully believe or believe that Zhiqiu did it. I just want to scare Zhiqiu and see how Wanxi reacts. But the end result was just as he had expected – nothing but in vain. He was so tempting, but it was as ridiculous as a clown juggling.

The more important the current event, the more calm the tide. To see panic or anger in her eyes was a dream.

"Yes, Your Majesty...... Why do you want Zhiqiu to eat a piece of red paper? Even though it's delicious, it's not something you can eat. In the early summer, seeing the strange atmosphere between Rong Yunxi and the emperor, he hurriedly said something to ease.

The emperor withdrew the gaze that was put into Rong Yunxi's eyes, folded the piece of red paper and handed it to Li Zhonggui: "Wait a minute, take it out and burn it, lest anyone misuse it." ”

Li Zhonggui replied: "Yes", carefully squeezing it in his hand.

The emperor paced a few steps in the room with his hands in his hands, sat down on the stool next to the round table, and his eyes swept over the bodies of Zhiqiu and Chuxia, who were kneeling on the ground, and finally, they fell on Rong Yunxi, who was standing calmly.

The emperor's gaze fell on Rong Yunxi's body, but it was still so deep with half-squinted eyes. Just probed her like this, without saying a word.

He couldn't conclude that this was done by Yunxi at the behest of Zhiqiu, but he couldn't conclude that it wasn't her. At this time, when the balance in his heart occasionally shifts to one side, he will immediately straighten it so that the pointer is always in the center......
