After Shen Yixuan left, the room fell silent for a while.

After a long time, Gu Xingzhi got up, picked up the teapot on the table, and poured a cup of tea gently, "Will you tell what you saw?" ”

The palace maid nodded, paused and said, "What did the prince say?" ”

The palace maid was a little puzzled, and she didn't know what the prince was asking.

She suddenly saw her outside the door in the afternoon.

The waiter was not hurt, but he fell to the ground in agony with blood from his mouth.

Did Childe do it?

Does Childe not want her to tell this, or Childe's whereabouts?

The smoke of the hot tea confused Gu Xingzhi's face.

The palace maid shook her head, "...... No. ”

If it was the former, she wouldn't say that Childe must have done things for a reason. But if it's the latter, she has to say that it's her task here.

Gu Xingzhi smiled and said softly: "You worked hard last night to find the third prince all night, drink hot tea, and rest well." ”

He handed over the teacup and asked the palace maid again, "You... Will you lie to Gu? ”

The palace maid took the cup, looked at the steaming teacup, and said:

"The slave maid was originally sent by the queen mother to the third prince's hand, and now she is sent by the queen mother to be by the prince's side......"

The implication is that she is the queen's mother. Although this is tantamount to nonsense, it is impossible for Childe not to know this.

After the palace maid finished speaking, she put the teacup to her mouth.

Without receiving an answer, the palace maid couldn't help but glance up at Gu Xingzhi.

Childe laughed again, but that smile ...... It seems to be mocking.

Childe didn't know what he was thinking, and there was a sadness all around him.

Although Childe often smiles, those eyes ...... But it was like crying.

The palace maid couldn't help but blurt out: "If the son is not happy, you don't have to laugh." ”

After the palace maid finished speaking, she was also a little surprised, but when she said what she had been thinking in her heart, she felt a sense of relief.

Although her words are not consistent with her way of survival in the palace, ignoring them.

However, she feels that Childe is different from others. She felt that Childe was someone she could trust, and she wanted to trust her instincts.

Gu Xingzhi put away his smile and knocked down the hot tea in the palace maid's hand.

The hot tea was sprinkled on Gu Xingzhi's hand.

The palace maid hurriedly took out a handkerchief and wanted to wipe it, but what she didn't notice was that a few puffs of white smoke rose from the ground that was sprinkled by the hot tea, which was fleeting.

"It's ridiculous, how do you know that Gu is unhappy?"

Gu Xingzhi's voice was cold, "You go, don't come over again in the future, if the queen investigates it, Gu will solve it." ”

The palace maid was inexplicably aggrieved and lowered her head.

Did she say something she shouldn't have said?

The maid withdrew from the house and closed the door lightly.

When I exited, I was stunned when I saw people not far away.

"Brother Guard, why are you here?"

She knew this man and often met him in the palace. The guards beside the prince have quite high positions, but they always meet in the palace for some reason.

The guard touched his face, a little at a loss, "...... I was just passing by......"

The palace maid smiled, "Are you busy with the assassin last night?" ”

The guard nodded, smiling a little crampedly, "Hmm." ”

——

Wang fu.

"Princess, it's time to eat."

Mo Heng stood outside the door and knocked on the door for a while, knocking until his hand hurt a little.

He was a little puzzled, usually the princess was the fastest runner, but today she has been stuffy in the room and has not come out.

Inside the house, Ruan Yu was lying on the bed, hearing the knock on the door, but she didn't want to pay attention to it, she had been an assassin all night last night, and she had been nervous, so she came back and slept for a few hours.

Even, she didn't have time to change her night clothes when she was sleepy, and she fell asleep after coming back to bed.

"Mo Heng, don't bang on the door, don't make noise with me...... I can't stop eating. Ruan Yu rolled over and went back to sleep.

Mo Heng knocked on the door a few more times, and there was no response in the room. Although I feel strange in my heart, I can only give up.

After returning to the main hall, Mo Heng met Shen Guan, who had already had dinner.

Mo Heng hesitated for a moment and said, "Lord Wang... Princess, she is a little strange today. ”

In fact, he felt that the prince was also a little strange, and last night he saw the prince sitting in the courtyard all the time...... Looking at the Princess's house.

There was no extra expression on Shen Guan's face, "She's in the house?" ”

Mo Heng was a little confused when he heard this, nodded and said, "Yes, but the princess doesn't come out to eat, this is the first time that her subordinates need to call the princess......"

Shen Guan stood up, "This king knows." ”

--

Ruan Yu heard another knock on the door.

This time the knock on the door was soft.

But this kind of noise was even more annoying, Ruan Yu shouted to the door, "Mo Heng, didn't I say it, leave me alone, alas......"

Ruan Yu was halfway through his shouting, and the door was suddenly pushed open.

She raised her eyes and looked at the door, and saw the person she least wanted to see walked in, so frightened that Ruan Yu quickly glanced at her body, but fortunately she was still wrapped in the quilt.

Ruan Yu's intestines were ruined.

She's still wearing the same nightwear underneath now......

Ruan Yu smiled a little far-fetched, "It's not good that the prince came in directly." ”

"The king knocked on the door."

The man's cold gaze stared at her, and his expression was still indifferent from thousands of miles away.

Ruan Yu muttered in a sullen voice, "Then can you come in directly, what if I don't have any clothes?" ”

Shen Guan didn't answer, and walked straight in, "Where did you go last night?" ”

Ruan Yu frowned when he heard this, "I haven't been anywhere, I've been in the palace last night." ”

Shen Guan walked to the bedside, "All the time?" ”

"Hmm."

Ruan Yu nodded, and his words were a little vague, "Lord Wang, go out, it's time for me to change my clothes." ”

Shen Guan's expression did not fluctuate, and he stood in front of the bed and glanced at Ruan Yu with lowered eyes.

His voice was always cold, with a chill, "It's okay, this king looks at you to change." ”

Ruan Yu wrapped the quilt tighter, "I'm not used to having someone next to me." ”

Shen Guan pulled up the corner of the quilt, "...... The king's patience is limited. ”

When Ruan Yu heard this, his body shrank back into the bed again, and he pulled the corner of the quilt back with all his might.

Shen looked at his empty hand, his fingertips twisted lightly, "Or do you need this king to help you change it?" ”

Ruan Yu shook his head, and then looked away.

How did she think that Shen looked suddenly scary, especially when he stared at her without speaking.

Ruan Yu didn't dare to look at Shen Guan's eyes, and his gaze fell on Shen Guan's lips.

The lips are very thin, she heard that men with thin lips are affectionate, but I don't know if Shen Guan is like this, but according to her experience, it is indeed very ruthless.

The thin lips opened and closed again, "Haven't woken up yet?" ”

Ruan Yu hurriedly said, "Woke up...... I didn't wear anything inside, and when the prince turned around, I changed it. ”

Shen Guan didn't move, still standing by the bed.

Ruan Yu thought about it and changed her mind, she stretched out her hand and pointed to the wardrobe not far away, and said to Shen Guan: "Then the prince will help me bring a set of clothes, and I will change it myself, is it okay?" ”

Although she wasn't sure if Shen Guan would go.
