Since it was in the Hou Mansion, how could it be possible to let Chu Xi get hurt, and when Yahuan made a move, the attendants of the Hou Mansion had already quickly come in and pressed her to the ground.

Chu Xi looked at the guards who appeared outside, and always felt that someone was testing the strength of the Hou Mansion.

Chu Xi didn't look at the maid ring on the ground lightly, but only turned her head to look at the Ning family who fell to the ground: "Young Mrs. Jiang looks very serious, come here, carry the person down, put the good life in the Hou Mansion, and immediately go to ask the imperial doctor to come, these days, let Young Mrs. Jiang stay in my Hou Mansion to rest." ”

When Ning Shi heard this, she panicked, she planned to deliberately pretend to be dizzy, so that she could give Chu Xi an arrogant hat and take Yao'er away, but if she invited the imperial doctor, wouldn't it be exposed.

Ning Shi hurriedly opened his eyes and looked at Chu Xi weakly: "Don't worry, princess, I'm fine."

"That's not good, I'm reckless, I'll train her again, but now I must take care of the young lady." Chu Xi said lightly, and said to the maid on the side: "Hurry up and ask the imperial doctor to come!" ”

After hearing this, Ning had to sit up: "Don't bother, I'm fine, just go back and rub some medicine, it's just your girl."

"Speaking of Yahuan" The corners of Chu Xi's mouth hooked, turned her head to look at the person who was pressed to the ground, and said: "Jiang Mansion is so bold that he dares to directly assassinate this concubine, is it because he sees that there is only one concubine in the Hou Mansion, so he thinks that he can be bullied at will?" ”

"I" Ning didn't know what to say, and looked at Mrs. Jiang who was frozen in place: "Mother, this person doesn't seem to be from Jiang's mansion."

"How could someone who wasn't from the Jiang Mansion follow Madam Jiang to serve?" Xiao Fu'er understands everything.

Mrs. Jiang glanced at the girl, as if she had been prepared: "This girl's ring should be sent to the yamen to ask, I don't know how she would do such a thing."

"You don't have to send it to the yamen." Chu Xiwan'er looked at Mrs. Jiang with a relieved look, and continued: "Someone is coming." Send someone to me directly to the prince's mansion, the prince has promised to protect the prince's mansion, and he will definitely take the time to deal with this matter. ”

"Your prince is busy with official business"

"I'm just a woman's family, I don't know about government affairs, I don't care if the prince is busy or not, I only know that Madame Jiang brought assassins to the Hou Mansion to kill me." Chu Xi learned from her, who wouldn't do it, just playing with her with such careful thinking, she really didn't have much energy.

Madam Jiang's face turned pale: "Princess Shizi, this person was not instructed by me, don't believe you asked her?" ”

"Really?" Chu Xi said, she naturally wouldn't ask, since they had all colluded, they wouldn't be able to ask anything. Chu Xi looked at the other two maid rings following behind Mrs. Jiang, and kept looking out, as if they were looking at this courtyard, and then looked at their hands in front of them, the tiger's mouth and index finger knuckle of the right hand, there were clearly calluses, they must be people who practice martial arts, they came here this time, one is to take away Yao'er, and the other is to explore the true strength of the Hou Mansion.

Mrs. Jiang nodded hurriedly, and Chu Xi smiled lightly: "That's it, I'm also tired today, I have to ask the prince to ask, Mrs. Jiang has just lost her beloved daughter, and I don't care about this trivial matter with Mrs. Jiang, if Mrs. Jiang has nothing else, please go back." ”

When Mrs. Jiang saw the appearance of Chu Xi's bun, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and looked at Yao'er who was hiding behind her: "Then we will come back to pick up Yao'er in a few days." ”

"Next time you come over, Madame Jiang won't bring any more assassins." Chu Xi smiled faintly.

Mrs. Jiang's face turned pale for a while, and she helped Ning up and left in a hurry.

Before they left, Xiao Fu'er greeted them: "Miss, let them go so easily, they are going to be killed"

Chu Xi motioned to her to pay attention to Yao'er, who was still on the side, no matter what, the Jiang family was also her foreign family.

"Someone."

"What does the princess command?" Someone came right away.

Chu Xi looked down at the maid ring who was pinned, and said, "Immediately send someone to follow the two maid rings behind Mrs. Jiang, where did they go, and what people said when they saw them, they had to listen to them word for word." "The man behind him took the initiative to attack, and now this move, is he trying to warn himself?

"Yes, what should I do with this girl?" The man asked.

Chu Ji looked down at her, knowing that she wouldn't say anything, and said, "Let people take care of it and throw it in the firewood room first." ”

"Won't you send it to the Prince's Mansion?"

The corners of Chu Xi's mouth were slightly hooked: "They have long been prepared to say what they will say when they see the prince, how can I let them succeed so easily?" ”

After Chu Xi's words were finished, the girl's face really changed, Chu Xi raised the corners of her mouth with satisfaction, looked back at Yao'er, and carefully comforted: "Don't worry, it's okay." ”

"The princess and concubine, they told me before that they wanted Yao'er to sacrifice to the sky, what is the sacrifice to the sky?" Yao'er asked cautiously with panic in her eyes.

Chu Xi was stunned. Yao'er didn't mention it, she almost forgot what Lin Qingyu said at the time, Pei County dug up a fierce stone, and the emperor planned to reopen the ceremony of sacrificing to the sky, would the noble girl to be used be Yao'er? Or is it the people behind the Jiang family who want to use this to provoke the already bad relationship between the emperor and the crown prince?

Chu Ji looked at her comfortingly and said, "Don't worry, it will never happen." ”

"Really?"

"Hmm!" Chu Ji shook his head heavily, sacrificing to the sky is nonsense, God has the virtue of a good life, only monsters need to sacrifice the lives of the living.

After appeasing Yao'er, she let people take her down to rest, and after looking at Xiao Fu'er, who didn't seem to have recovered from the panic, Chu Ji smiled and said, "Okay, you're tired, go back and rest." ”

Xiao Fu'er hurriedly came back to her senses and said, "There is still something to do." ”

"What?"

"Hmm." Xiao Fu'er looked at Chu Xi's belly, her eyes lit up, and after a while, Aunt Fu came back with a sweaty doctor.

When Chu Xi saw it, she had no choice but to help her forehead.

In the palace at this time. The queen was already so angry that she was seriously ill, and she was lying on the couch with a pale complexion: "Chu Dai'er, how can she match!" ”

"Niangniang, it's a foregone conclusion, don't be angry." The grandmother on the side persuaded.

The more the queen thought about it, the more angry she felt in her heart, she really couldn't figure it out, the emperor's body was already like that, how could he still have sex, and he also crossed the level and directly mentioned Chu Dai'er's noble identity.

"No, no, no, go prepare a sedan chair, the palace is going to see the emperor!" The queen got up and was about to go out, but Mama hurriedly stopped her: "Niangniang, the emperor has ordered"

"He didn't let the palace not allow him to go to the Heart Cultivation Palace!" The queen said angrily, the grandmothers didn't dare to speak, so she hurriedly changed her clothes and went to the Heart Cultivation Palace.

When she came, it was already late, and there was a candle flame burning in the Heart Cultivation Palace, and Gonggong Gao was also waiting in front of the hall early in the morning, as if he knew that she was coming.

"Niangniang, the emperor is in good spirits today, don't you go" Gao Gonggong reminded, the queen nodded with a blue face, she and the emperor are also old husbands and wives, but when she thought that the emperor was actually with Chu Dai'er, she felt unbearable.

It was easy to come to the palace, but at a glance, I saw Chu Dai'er sitting on the warm couch with the emperor playing chess, and the two of them were talking and laughing, and they almost lost their breath.

Gao Gonggong stepped forward: "Your Majesty, the queen mother is here." ”

"Well, let's wait for now, I'll finish this game with Dale." The emperor smiled faintly.

Chu Dai'er raised her eyes, looked at the emperor, and then at the queen, lowered her eyes and didn't know what to think.

After the end of the first game, it was already half an hour, and the queen's eyes were dizzy.

Chu Dai'er glanced at the chess pieces, her sunspots had been eaten, and her heart suddenly became agitated, but when she raised her eyes, she saw the emperor smiling normally, and said, "The emperor is still powerful." ”

"I can't do it, I'm old, you see how dangerous it is, if I slack off a little, I'll lose everything." The emperor laughed, and then turned his head to look at the queen and said, "It's not too early, you should go back and rest early." ”

The queen was dumbfounded, and before she could speak, the emperor sent her away.

"Your Majesty, Concubine"

"Dai'er, help me go back to the dormitory."

"Yes." Chu Dai'er got up, carefully holding his arm and walking towards the dormitory.

Gao Gonggong saw that people had entered, so he walked up to the queen: "Niangniang, it's not early, you go back and rest early, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it tomorrow." ”

"Can the emperor's body still stand it!" The queen asked, holding her breath.

Gao Gonggong smiled faintly: "Don't worry, the emperor is in good spirits these days." ”

The queen took a deep breath, turned her head and left.

After leaving the Heart Cultivation Palace, she thought about it, but still did not return to her dormitory.

"Go, prepare the carriage, the main palace will leave the palace overnight"

"Mother, the four doors are closed"

"This palace really misses my father at home, I must leave the palace now!" The queen snapped.

Where do the palace maids dare to disobey, they are busy waiting to leave the palace again.

Hearing Chu Dai'er's news, Zhao Yiheng was pleasantly surprised: "I didn't expect her to have such a means." ”

The queen was wrapped in a bright red cloak: "It was originally your imperial concubine, but now it has become your father's concubine, Yiheng, this matter is not good for you." ”

Zhao Yiheng thought about it and laughed: "Chu Dai'er is the fourth lady of the Chu family, and now the Chu family can be said to be wiped out except for Chu Ji and her, and even Chu Bingsong is dead, and it is even more disadvantageous for me to marry her." ”

"Chu Bingsong is dead?" The queen hadn't heard the news yet, but Zhao Yiheng smiled and said, "I think it was the father who made the prince suppress the news in order to take care of Chu Dai'er's face." But this kind of Chu Dai'er is really useless to us, and if my father likes it, let her serve by my father's side. No matter what, she is only a nobleman, not as good as your queen, and now that she is in the favor of the Holy Grace, why don't you let her mediate and pass me to your name? ”

When the queen heard this, her face sank: "Do you know who she is?" ”

"Isn't it from southern Xinjiang?" The corners of Zhao Yiheng's mouth were raised, Chu Dai'er was from Southern Xinjiang, and he already knew: "I just don't know what kind of character she is in Southern Xinjiang, if she is a fine work, she still wants glory and wealth, if she really can't keep it at that time, kill her, as long as she is useful to us now." ”

The queen's face sank: "Is there also someone from you in the palace of this palace?" ”

Zhao Yiheng laughed: "Niangniang doesn't need to be angry, isn't there all kinds of fine work hidden everywhere in this palace, Niangniang dares to say that there is no one for you in the Five Princes' Mansion?" ”

The queen snorted coldly: "This palace is not here to talk to you about this, if you think you can grasp Chu Dai'er, this person can be used, but if it is in the future"

"Don't worry, Niangniang, she is like an ant in my eyes, I can crush her whenever I want!" Zhao Yiheng said with a smile.

Seeing that he was so determined, the queen didn't say more, and couldn't stay here for a long time, so she stood up directly: "Chu Zhenzhen, what are you going to do with it?" ”

Zhao Yiheng thought of Chu Zhenzhen, and only felt that this game of cat and mouse was more interesting: "Keep it, it's useful." ”

The queen glanced at him coldly: "This palace advises you, even though Chu Zhenzhen is beautiful, she is just a lowly person, you must not lose a big one because of a small one." ”

Zhao Yiheng stood up and respectfully saluted the queen: "Don't worry, Niangniang"

When the queen saw this, she was about to leave, but Zhao Yiheng took a step forward and whispered: "Niangniang promised me about Princess Huaiyang"

Thinking of this, the queen finally had a smile on her face: "Don't worry, the prince is already investigating her, and when the time comes, we can kill two birds with one stone by secretly using some means!" ”

"Yes."

Watching the queen leave, Zhao Yiheng restrained the smile on his face and said, "Bring Chu Zhenzhen!" ”

When Chu Xi returned to bed tired at night, she still felt that she had not recovered from the shock, she couldn't forget the way the doctor looked at her with a happy face, she really had a child!

Chu Xi's hand was placed on her lower abdomen, and she couldn't feel anything now, but she still felt an inexplicable sadness in her heart, for some reason, she imagined that if she was pregnant with a foolish child, she would be happy, but now, she was uncomfortable and wanted to cry.

The grief was uncontrollable, she curled up and hugged herself carefully, but the tears still couldn't stop falling.

She didn't know when she had fallen asleep, in a daze, she only felt that her back had become warm, as if someone had taken her into her arms, she was not yet conscious, she only murmured: "Foolish"

"I'm here."

A familiar voice came, Chu Xi only thought that she was dreaming, her tense body relaxed a lot, and finally fell asleep.

When she opened her eyes the next day, she was stunned, looking at her sleeping face in the crook of her arm, and her eyes were slightly wet.

seemed to notice that she had woken up, Lin Qingyu also woke up, and when he saw her, he said: "Xiao Fu'er wrote to say that you were picky eaters and refused to eat, so I rushed back overnight." ”

Chu Ji hugged him, and she couldn't stop her tears.

Lin Qingyu chuckled and patted her back slowly, until Chu Xi cleaned up her emotions, and then smiled: "The address you sent to Master Han has been secretly checked, I believe there will be results soon, as for Mingyue, I have also found it." Lin Qingyu sighed lightly: "If I guessed correctly, Mu Ming, this kid, is really Zhao Yiheng's, as for why Zhao Yiheng doesn't know, and Mingyue doesn't want to admit it, I think something happened that day I didn't know." ”

Chu Xi frowned: "Where are they now?" ”

"In the Infinite Pavilion." Lin Qingyu said: "Mingyue seems to be sharp, but she has been a soft child since she was a child, and the Yang family is fine." ”

Chu Xi frowned: "Then when will they come back?" ”

"What's wrong?" Lin Qingyu looked at Chu Xi and seemed to have other worries.

Chu Ji told Yang Ying about it, Lin Qingyu thought about it, and said, "I will bring people out as soon as possible." ”

Chu Ji bowed slightly, holding him and refusing to let go, but he didn't seem to know that he was pregnant with a child, did Xiao Fu'er plan to let him tell him personally?

Chu Xi thought about it and didn't mention it: "When are you leaving?" ”

"I'm going to leave in a while, and the matter of Peixian has just emerged, but Ruyifang has news that Zhao Xunyan's army of dead soldiers has begun to gather in the direction of the capital." Lin Qingyu said: "I have already sent a message from the prince, and I want to speed up the preparations." ”

"Hmm." Chu Ji bowed: "Zhao Xunyan's accomplices in the capital are the Jiang family, but I don't know what else there is, and I suspect that he and Zhenniang are still colluding together for the sake of interests." ”

Lin Qingyu slowly followed her green silk and said with a smile: "You have to find a way to pull out your hand in this matter, and let the prince, the fifth prince and the queen stir it up, this is a tough battle, the interests of these people have long been intertwined, and the whole body will be affected by one shot, no matter who dies, the others will not be happy." ”

"I understand." Chu Ji bowed: "Where is the Southern Xinjiang Mission?" ”

"I'm afraid the road here is a bit difficult." Lin Qingyu remembered Lin Fu's report, but when he heard a knock on the door outside, he said, "I'll tell you later, the Southern Xinjiang Mission doesn't have to worry too much for the time being, and it is important to do the affairs of the capital first." ”

Chu Xi watched him get up and dress, and after thinking about it, she also got up, took the robe for him, and began to take care of it for him.

"Well, can you let Zheng Yun come back first?" Chu Ji said.

"Zheng Yun? What about Miss Yun? Lin Qing was foolish, but Chu Xi looked at him with a smile: "You already knew?" ”

"It's Zheng Yun who has already sent me several letters, saying that he wants to go back to the capital to do the marriage first, I thought about it, and there was no reason to stop it, so I agreed, and he came back, which is a matter of the next two days." Lin Qingyu looked at her with a smile, she was always like this, she was busy with everything, and she had to take care of the people around her.

Lin Qingyu packed up and was about to leave, and Chu Xi didn't tell him that she was pregnant, and this child always made her feel inexplicably sad.

Lin Qingyu gently kissed her on the forehead: "Something on your mind?" ”

"Well, I'll tell you when you're done with Peixian." Chu Xi said with a smile.

Lin Qingyu said: "Okay." With that, he turned around and left.

After Lin Qingyu left, Chu Xi sat in front of the dresser dejectedly, looking at herself in a daze in the bronze mirror, but for some reason, the memories of her previous life began to slowly blur, and the pictures that had torn out her heart bones slowly became a little blurry.

When Xiao Fu'er came in, she saw her in a daze and laughed: "What's wrong with Miss?" Isn't it stupid to be stupid when you are pregnant with a child? ”

Chu Ji looked at her still limping and said with a smile: "You are bold enough to dare to deliver news to the prince in private." ”

"Hehe," Xiao Fu'er smirked and wanted to get by. The two laughed and talked for a while, and Chu Xi's heart was also a little relieved, and in the courtyard, the sun was just right at this time, shining warmly on people.

The people sent out yesterday have also returned, and they came with them, as well as Yan Yi who was disguised.

Chu Xi walked to the flower garden with a small kettle and carefully watered the flowers, Yao'er followed and looked energetic, Chu Xi asked lightly, "What did you find?" ”

Yan Yi looked at the guards on the side and said, "Yesterday, the people we followed met with the guards of the Shizi Mansion, and met Zhao Xunyan, the king of freedom!" ”

"Well, what else?" For Zhao Xunyan's appearance, Chu Xi was not surprised.

"We also found out that he was secretly involved with the people of southern Xinjiang." Yan Yi said again.

Chu Xi's watering action paused slightly, and asked people to take Yao'er down to play, and then took them into the pavilion not far away: "Which people from southern Xinjiang?" Chu Dai's face was serious, if it was Chu Dai'er's group of people, then she seemed to be able to guess the purpose of those people all along.

"This group of concubines from southern Xinjiang should know that they are from Tongfu Lane before, and they have been found out by Lord Han." Yan Yi looked at Chu Xi carefully: "We know that the princess seems to be staring at them. ”

"Well, but my people didn't find out that they were involved with Zhao Xunyan in private, and it should have been a while, otherwise it would be impossible to have such a tacit understanding so soon." If this is the case, Chu Dai'er should also know, but Zhao Xunyan's main purpose, one is to take revenge, and the other is the wolf's ambition, and he really wants to take the throne! If you can really cooperate with the people of southern Xinjiang, then you must have a common purpose. But as far as she knew, this group of people had no connection with the southern Xinjiang royal family.

"Could it be Aunt Seven?" Chu Xi was startled by the thought that suddenly popped into her mind.

"Who is Aunt Seven?" Yan Yi was puzzled.

Chu Ji looked at him fixedly: "More than ten years ago, there was a princess in southern Xinjiang who eloped with someone, became pregnant and entered the Chu Mansion, but after giving birth to Chu Dai'er, she was poisoned by the Chu family, but as far as I know, she did not die at all, but fled. ”

"You mean, the person who led the matter is the princess of Southern Xinjiang who eloped with someone back then?" Yan Yiyi.

Chu Ji bowed: "Very likely." ”

"If that's the case, she has been staying in the capital, and she is trying her best to marry her daughter into the palace and cooperate with King Xiaoyao, is she planning to let us go to war with Southern Xinjiang after the matter is completed? But if she retaliates like this, the time will drag on too long, can she have the patience? And no one can guarantee that we will definitely go to war with southern Xinjiang. Yan Yi analyzed.

Chu Xi also nodded, but her brows furrowed fiercely: "She hasn't done anything, it is very likely that there is no one around, and her body is also in a condition, and the other thing is that her main purpose is not to take revenge on Nanjiang, who broke off relations with her back then."

"What else could it be?" Yan Yi was puzzled.

Chu Ji looked at him: "If you were her, you abandoned all the glory and wealth, eloped with him, but he abandoned you, what do you want to do most?" ”

"Of course, he won't die well." The people from the Hou Mansion standing beside Yan Yi couldn't help it.

"What the princess meant was that they stayed. Mainly to take revenge on people? ”

"War with southern Xinjiang may also be one of the goals, but it's hard to say now, and what I doubt most now is who the negative man was back then." Chu Xi didn't dare to think about it, but hurriedly said: "This matter is kept secret for the time being, you can't say it, you keep an eye on them first and see what their next move is." Now that Chu Dai'er has succeeded, Zhao Xunyan will not let go of this opportunity, if it is late, God knows what kind of changes will happen.

"Yes." Yan bowed his head and was about to leave, but Chu Xi said again: "Also, let you check, can the cause of the abbot's death be investigated?" ”

"Not yet, but there's already some eyebrows." Yan Yiyi.

Chu Xi bowed slightly, thought about it, and decided to go to the prince's mansion, but without waiting for her to go out, Zhao Xuanyi came to the door by herself.

As soon as I came in. Zhao Xuanyi looked at her nervously, and when he saw that she was not injured, he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, what about the Jiang family's maid?" ”

"I had them locked up first." Chu Xi followed behind him, but his steps were so big that he had to trot up a little to keep up.

Zhao Xuanyi noticed her movements, slowed down his steps, looked at Chu Xi who was walking behind him, and said, "Originally, for the sake of the face of the concubine and Jiang Fan, this palace didn't plan to move the Jiang Mansion. ”

When Chu Xuan heard this, Zhao Xuanyi was discussing government affairs with herself, so she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly, lowered her eyebrows and didn't speak.

Zhao Xuanyi didn't seem to notice her silence, and continued: "The old lady of the Jiang family has always been dismissive of me, thinking that I am indecisive, not as neat as the King of Ease, and not as good as his means. Zhao Xuanyi said as he entered Lin Qingyu's study, sat down in the first seat, and glanced at Chu Xi: "You can sit too." ”

Chu Xi saw that he regarded this place as his home, lowered his head and didn't speak, and sat down on one side.

Zhao Xuanyi thought about it, and still asked someone to bring a few brocade boxes: "This is what I asked people to find, they are all mild and fetal medicines, you can stew some and eat them later." ”

Chu Xi's eyebrows tightened slightly: "These objects are all in the Hou Mansion"

"Since I promised Qingyu to take care of the Hou Mansion, I will not break my promise." Zhao Xuanyi saw her refusal, he was angry, but he was reluctant to be angry with her, so he only said lightly: "I don't have enough evidence of collusion between the Jiang family and others, but I will do it in the next few days, and Jiang Fantou will be seven at that time" Zhao Xuanyi frowned: "You and Yao'er should be careful." ”

"Yes."

Zhao Xuanyi looked at her with a cold look, and said, "Your father"

"What's wrong with my father?" Chu Ji looked at him puzzled, Zhao Xuanyi stared at her for a long time, and saw that there was no difference on her face, so she said: "Your father has passed away, I have asked people to collect the body, the Chu family has no direct descendants, I notified Li Xiao to go to the Chu Mansion to handle the funeral, today you are afraid that you will have to go back to the Chu Mansion, and Chu Dai'er will also go back." ”

"I understand." Chu Zhen bowed, returning to Chu Mansion this time is the real thing or people, and Chu Zhenzhen, who has been in the Five Princes' Mansion, must also take action.

"If only you understood." After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he looked at the house, and he couldn't find anything to say, but he didn't want to leave so early: "Yao'er"

"I don't know what happened to the prince about the secret passage in the palace?" Chu Xi asked, it was a bit strange to talk to him about children here.

Zhao Xuanyi thought about it, looked at Chu Xi, lost some weight, and had already changed into a light green spring dress, sitting there lightly, looking like willow leaves in spring, delicate but with a tenacity.

"Still investigating"

"I heard that the queen mother seemed to leave the palace yesterday and went to see the five princes, and the last assassination in the palace, I think everyone is apprehensive, and I hope the prince will find out who is behind the scenes as soon as possible." Chu Ji said.

Zhao Xuanyi saw her with such a detached attitude. also knew that now was not the time for children to be in love, so he got up: "Well, you pack up and go back to Chu Mansion, if there is something, come to me"

"Thank you, Prince." Chu Xi stood up and saluted.

Zhao Xuanyi walked up to her, looked at her hair with only two beaded flowers, and unconsciously wanted to raise her hand to caress it, but in the end she endured it and turned away.

Zhao Xuanyi left, Chu Xi breathed a sigh of relief, and sat on the stool tiredly, sure enough, it didn't take long for the news of Chu Mansion to come.

Xiao Fu'er muttered while changing into a white filial piety dress for Chu Xi: "Miss is pregnant, so she has to kneel, in case there is a good one."

"Don't crow's mouth." Aunt Fu hurriedly said: "You like to say something unlucky." Aunt Fu picked up the white silk flower and put it on for Chu Xi, and then reprimanded.

Xiao Fu'er pursed her lips and didn't dare to say more, Chu Ji changed her clothes, and then took Aunt Fu's hand and walked forward, and when she arrived at the gate of the Hou Mansion, she saw Old Lady Yang and Yang Qianxiu, who had been waiting for a long time.

Both of them changed their clothes, and when they saw Chu Ji coming, Mrs. Yang handed her a box: "This is the warm jade for the body, in the end, you will be contaminated with some yin qi, you must take care of yourself." ”

Looking at Old Madam Yang's worried eyes, Chu Xi had already reached the throat of the 'grandmother' and swallowed it in the end: "Thank you, Old Madam Yang." ”

Old Madam Yang smiled, afraid that Chu Xi would worry, so she stepped aside: "You go first." ”

"Hmm." Chu Ji bowed his head, and then left, and once he went, it was another tough battle.

Seeing Chu Ji leaving, Yang Qian Xiu comforted: "Mother, don't worry, this girl is smarter than her mother, and nothing will happen." ”

"Hey" Mrs. Yang sighed and said, "I'm also blindly worried, the hour is almost up, let's go." ”

"We went over, and Ying'er may not be willing to come back."

"She'll be willing, let's not live in the Hou Mansion. Just go back to Yang's Mansion. Old Madam Yang said.

Yang Qianxiu frowned slightly: "That's the only way, Ying'er has been too pampered since she was a child."

"The Yang family is her daughter's family, and there is no decent woman who can teach her the way to be a daughter and a wife, we only feel that she is pitiful and blindly spoiled, this is not to blame Ying'er, only to blame us." Old Madam Yang's eyes filled with tears again, Yang Qianxiu saw this, but he didn't say much, just watched Old Madam Yang go out and quietly stuffed a note to others.

After they also left, the little maid hurriedly took the note and went to see the housekeeper, and after reading the contents of the paper, the housekeeper paused: "Go and talk to the princess." ”

"Yes!"

Chu Xi's carriage arrived in front of the Chu Mansion, and there were many people at the gate of the Chu Mansion at this time, not looking at Chu Bingsong's face, but also looking at Li Xiao's face, looking at the prince's face, and no matter how bad it was, it had to look at the face of the Hou Mansion and Chu Dai'er.

Seeing the carriage of the Hou Mansion coming, Li Xiao greeted him early.

"The princess."

Chu Xi's expression was faint: "Cousin Xiao, hard work." ”

Li Xiao showed a little joy on her face and looked at Chu Xi. A white dress seems to be more suitable for her, setting her off with a delicate and dusty appearance, like a nine-day fairy.

"Cousin Xiao, what's wrong?" Chu Ji saw him looking at him in a daze, and hurriedly asked.

Li Xiao hurriedly came back to his senses, and then said in a low voice: "The fourth sister and the second sister have arrived, and they are inside, you will go in later."

Before Li Xiao's words were finished, he saw that Chu Zhenzhen had already run out, wearing a veil, looking hideous.

Although she is Zhao Xunyan's princess, Zhao Xunyan's rebellion did not have a real hammer, but he just ran away with a weak heart, so the holy decree of conviction was not given, and Chu Zhenzhen became an existence that was not embarrassed or embarrassed.

Seeing her running out angrily, Xiao Fu'er hurriedly stopped in front of Chu Xi, but she didn't expect Chu Zhenzhen to have great strength, so she pushed Xiao Fu'er away, and stepped forward to pull Chu Xi, but fortunately she was stopped by the people of the Hou Mansion.

Chu Zhenzhen saw this. laughed: "Why does the big sister still have the face to come back?" If you kill your father, you're a father-killing demon! ”

Chu Xi's face did not change: "What is the second sister talking about?" ”

Li Xiao wanted to come forward and pull Chu Zhenzhen, but Chu Zhenzhen opened it, and sarcastically said to him: "Don't touch me with your dirty hands, Li Xiao, don't think I don't know, you have long been greedy for Chu Zhen, but Chu Zhen married the prince, you can only marry the maid ring next to her with a dead face, and you are complacent all day long, and now you are still running to handle my father's funeral, if you have this kung fu, why don't you go to avenge my father!" ”

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Li Xiao's face was pale, Chu Xi looked at him, and there was already a faint hint of anger in his eyes.

Chu Zhenzhen snorted coldly: "You know very well what I'm talking about. After that, he turned his head to look at Chu Xi: "You demon, Evil Star!" Since you returned to Chu Mansion for half a year, Chu Mansion has been constantly dead, and now it is all dead, what. Because your father killed your mother back then, do you want to kill your father in the same way! ”

Everyone was in an uproar, it turned out that the eldest lady was killed by Chu Bingsong back then!

Chu Xi's expression was still indifferent: "My mother died of depression back then, why did my father kill her?" ”

When Chu Zhenzhen heard this, she laughed even louder: "You are really a good and filial daughter, you don't dare to say anything about the cause of your mother's death, and you even killed your father with your own hands."

The corners of Chu Xi's mouth raised slightly: "Second sister seems to have evidence." ”

"Of course there is proof!" Chu Zhenzhen stared at Chu Xi coldly, approached her and whispered: "Don't think I don't know, you planned all this, Chu Zhen, you are a sinister seed, you should have died with your mother in the first place."

"You're bold!" Xiao Fu'er heard it clearly, and couldn't help but scold loudly.

Chu Zhenzhen took the opportunity to take a step back: "What, now that the big sister is going to kill me?" ”

Chu Xi glanced at everyone's suspicious gazes, felt no sense in his heart, and only said, "Since there is evidence, let's take it out." ”

"Big sister thinks I don't dare?" Chu Zhenzhen laughed coldly, turned her head and said, "Don't bring that executioner up yet!" ”

Chu Xi looked at a few people in the crowd, those people Chu Xi was familiar with, Zhao Yiheng was around, but the people they were holding

Chu Ji's hand hidden in his sleeve tightened slightly, how could Xu Gui be caught by them!

"What, my sister doesn't know? This person wandered around the gate of Chu Mansion all day long, and his father sneaked out of the city that day, he just listened to your orders and made his father a human being, exactly the same as your mother's death back then, do you dare to say that this is not revenge? Chu Zhenzhen smiled sarcastically, but her eyes carefully observed the crowd around her, she knew that Zhao Xunyan must have returned to the capital, and she must be watching the play in the crowd at this time.

Xu Gui's mouth was gagged, and his body was covered with scars, and it seemed that he had been tortured.

Chu Zhen only stared straight at Chu Zhenzhen: "These are all your words"

"One-sided?" Chu Zhenzhen laughed: "The five princes and the crown prince all went out of the city that day, and they really saw it, but in order to suppress this matter and protect the reputation of the Anping Marquis Mansion, the crown prince has repeatedly threatened the five princes, and the five princes can testify to this matter!" ”

Chu Zhen looked at Chu Zhenzhen lightly, raised her eyes, and swept to Chu Dai'er who was standing at the door, she had a playful look in her eyes, and she looked like she was watching a play, this time Chu Zhenzhen was their chess piece again. But what does Chu Zhenzhen want to do?

"If this is really the case, it should be a secret of the palace, how did the second sister know about it? Is it really as rumored in the streets, you live in the Five Princes' Mansion? Chu Xi said lightly.

"You don't want to talk nonsense!" Chu Zhenzhen suddenly shouted frantically, as if she was very afraid that Zhao Xunyan would hear it, she wanted to kill Zhao Xunyan very much, but she hoped that he would change her mind, so she must not let him hear the news that she was suspected of fornicating with someone.

When Chu Ji saw this, she knew where her weakness was, and she took a step forward and said, "The seventeenth prince is rumored to be in Beijing, I don't know how he feels after he knows about it." ”

"You talk nonsense!" Chu Zhenzhen was confused all of a sudden, and Chu Zhen said again: "Then how do you know this?" ”

"It was the Fifth Prince who asked me to say it!" Chu Zhenzhen blurted out, and then reacted: "Chu Zhen, you lied to me!" ”

At this time, Chu Dai'er had already walked over and glanced at Chu Zhenzhen. said: "Second sister, why are you making trouble in front of everyone, what do our sisters have to go back and say, after all, this witness hasn't spoken yet"

"Don't you fake your kindness here!" Chu Zhenzhen pushed her dissatisfiedly, but suddenly understood something, and hurriedly turned her head to stare at Xu Gui fiercely, and said, "You say!" ”

The cloth towel in Xu Gui's mouth was pulled out, but he knew Chu Ji's ruthlessness, if he dared to say it now, it would be a dead end in the future: "Little one, I don't know what you want me to say?" ”

Chu Zhenzhen saw that he didn't recognize it, so she took the whip on the side and slapped him on his head and face: "I'll let you not say it, I'll let you not say it."

She seemed to have all her hatred contained in this whip, and as soon as the whip fell, Xu Gui's face was full of flesh, and white bones were faintly visible, and she fell to the ground in a few strokes, twitching all over.

Xiao Fu'er was so frightened that she covered her mouth and cried, Chu Dai's silver teeth clenched, raised her eyes to see the sneer on the corner of Chu Dai'er's lips, and held back the anger in her heart. "Stop! ”

"You say! You said! Chu Zhenzhen seemed to be stunned, and kept whipping, without meaning to stop for half a minute.

Chu Xi glanced at the attendants of the Hou Mansion, and before he could step forward, he saw a fast horse coming, and the person sitting on the horse was none other than the fifth prince Zhao Yiheng.

Zhao Yiheng looked at Chu Xi's belly, his eyes were fierce, he would never let Lin Qingyu have a child!

"I see who dares to bully!" The corners of Zhao Yiheng's mouth were coldly hooked.

Seeing this, Li Xiao wanted to take a step forward, but Chu Xi glanced at him and motioned him to look for the prince, while he looked at Zhao Yiheng lightly, and also saluted with everyone: "I've seen the five princes, but are you here to investigate the case today, or are you here to worship your deceased father?" Or, to pick up the seventeenth princess. ”

When Zhao Yiheng heard this, he frowned, but said coldly: "This prince just can't see anyone bullying others."

"Isn't that what the Fifth Prince is doing?" Chu Xi looked directly at him.

"What a sharp mouth! However, the prince did not argue with the woman, and this time he came over to open the coffin for an autopsy. You'll be able to find the clues! Although the prince has an enmity with Prime Minister Chu, but his death is not clear now, many people suspect that it is the hand of the prince, and now although it is the seventeenth princess who seems to have found evidence, the princess refuses to admit it, there is no way, only the prince himself can prove his innocence, and then ask the nobles of Chu to be a witness! ”

Chu Dai'er glanced at Chu Xi lightly, and her chin raised slightly: "Naturally." ”

Xiao Fu'er grabbed Chu Xi's sleeve: "Miss, let's go back to the Hou Mansion." ”

Chu Xi shook her head slightly, now that the arrow is on the line, she can't be allowed to call the shots, Zhao Yiheng took a lot of trouble this time, but it was to deal with a female relative like herself.

Just as Chu Yi was about to step in, someone suddenly came over and whispered a few words in Zhao Yiheng's ear, Zhao Yiheng's face suddenly changed greatly, and he turned his head to stare at Chu Xi more and more fiercely: "The Yan family really has the same heart as you!" ”

Chu Xi was puzzled, but seeing that he was so angry and mentioned the Yan family again, could it be that the dead soldiers he had raised in the suburbs of Beijing were discovered?

Seeing that he was in a hurry to leave, Chu Xi said lightly: "The fifth prince didn't stay for an autopsy to prove his innocence?" ”

"You ----!" Zhao Yiheng finally knew why Chu Zhenzhen gritted her teeth every time she mentioned Chu Zhen.

Zhao Xuanyi also hurried over, Chu Xi saw this, only then turned her head to look into the crowd, only then did she notice that cold gaze again, but who was it, just a glance made her panic!
