"If you can't protect her, then quit on your own, and naturally there will be more suitable people to protect her."

After Shen Zhuo left these words, he left the Fa Division.

Xiao Ti sat alone in the room and was stunned for a long time.

Wei Liao's previous provocation did not affect him, because he was very sure that there was no possibility between Xuan Xuan and Wei Liao.

But Shen Zhuo is different.

He is now the prince, he will soon be the crown prince, and he will be the emperor in the future.

Xiao Ti himself is still just a county king.

If Shen Zhuo is determined to rob people with him, can he really protect him?

……

Yu Yuanxuan took Ling Hai back to the county king's mansion.

Because of the completion of the task of selling recipes, Yu Yuanyuan is in a good mood, and even walks more briskly than usual.

It wasn't until Ling Hai reminded her to deliver on time that she returned to reality, and her steps became heavy again.

Huh! I'll have to work overtime again tonight.

She went to the study and began to paint.

Fortunately, she has already drawn it once, and she can redraw the previous sketch with her super memory, but she promised to give Zheng Changle a little trick, so she has to change the plot a little.

Before I knew it, it was already dark outside the window.

The spring breeze came to remind her.

"His Royal Highness the King of the County is back, it's time for dinner."

Yu Yuan put down the brush, stood up and stretched a big waist.

When she walked into the dining hall, she saw that Xiao Ti and Luo Pingsha were already seated at the table.

As soon as she sat down, the three of them could start eating.

Yu Yuan asked while eating, "What case did the Righteous Law Division handle today?" ”

Xiao Ti sandwiched a meatball for her and replied casually.

"I checked the affairs of Concubine Meng before her death, and found that she was friendly with Empress Dowager Deng during her lifetime, and I was thinking about whether to go to Empress Dowager Deng to inquire about Concubine Meng."

Yu Yuanyuan was very surprised, every time she thought of it, she could still involve the Queen Mother.

"Going to the Queen Mother for this little thing, will her old man be unhappy?"

Xiao Ti: "The Queen Mother has a gentle temperament, so she shouldn't be blamed, but I'm worried that if this matter is stabbed in front of the Queen Mother, it is likely that the emperor will know about it." If we want to overturn the case, we must find strong evidence, but we don't have any evidence now. ”

Yu Yuanxuan understood what he meant.

"Are you worried that the emperor won't let us continue to investigate after he finds out?"

Xiao Ti bowed: "Hmm." ”

The reason why he didn't tell the emperor about the jade bracelet was also because he took this into account.

The emperor is a very purposeful person, he spends so much money to support the Zhengfa Division and the Eagle Guard, not for the sake of the common people in the world, but for himself to be able to better control the civil and military officials.

For the emperor, it would be a great waste for the eagle guards to spend their hearts and minds to send an old case that had already been decided.

He certainly wasn't happy,

Yu Yuanxuan proposed.

"Why don't we test the Queen Mother?"

Xiao Ti: "How to tempt?" ”

Yu Yuanyuan briefly explained his plan.

"When I went back to the palace, I put on that jade bracelet.

If the Queen Mother knew the bracelet, she would definitely recognize it.

I will be able to take the opportunity to talk to her old man and get the information I want.

But if she didn't recognize it, it means that she hadn't seen the bracelet either.

We don't have to bother with the Queen Mother.

In this way, no matter what the result is, there is no need to alarm the emperor.

What do you guys think? ”

Xiao Ti thought about it seriously: "You can try it, but you have to grasp the degree, don't let people see that you did it on purpose." ”

Lopinsha also thinks the idea is feasible.

Yu Yuan clapped his hands: "Then it's decided!" Now there is a lack of a reason to enter the palace to meet the Queen Mother. ”

Embroidered Mama spoke at the right time.

"The day after tomorrow is the day when the seven princes are canonized as princes, and when the queen mother, queen, and emperor will go to the Taimiao, and the county prince and princess will also go to watch the ceremony."

Yu Yuan: "Yes, yes, yes, the ceremony of canonizing the prince!" This is a good opportunity to get close to the Queen Mother! ”

Hearing the words of canonizing the crown prince, Xiao Ti's eyes darkened a lot.

He didn't say a word again, and it was quiet the whole time.

At first, Yu Yuanxuan didn't notice anything abnormal, until the two returned to the bedroom, and when Xiao Ti gave her the usual medicine, she was still speechless as usual, and chattered endlessly.

But Xiao Ti didn't say a word, like a gourd with a sawed mouth, too quiet.

Only then did Yu Yuanyu notice his strangeness.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you upset? ”

Xiao Ti said lightly: "Not much." ”

Yu Yuan stared at his expressionless poker face, and said steadily.

"You're just not happy! Something must have happened to you? ”

Xiao Ti was silent.

After helping her with the medicine, he got up and went to wash his hands.

Yu Xuan put on his clothes, sat cross-legged on the bed, and said to his back.

"What the hell happened to you? Tell me, maybe I can help you figure it out. ”

Xiao Ti finished washing his hands in silence, and wiped his hands clean with a cloth towel.

When he returned to the bed, he could only say when he saw Yu Xuanxuan staring at him without blinking.

"It's okay, let's sleep."

Yu Yuanxuan was very unhappy.

She fell straight onto the bed, and then rolled back and forth, left and right, rolling the bedding on the bed into a mess, and there were words in her mouth.

"You obviously have something on your mind, but if you don't tell me, do you not trust me? I'm so uncomfortable, I can't sleep tonight, it's all your fault, you caused me insomnia, you are so annoying! ”

Xiao Ti looked at her quietly for a long time before he spoke.

"Shen Zhuo is about to become the crown prince, don't you have any thoughts on this matter?"

Yu Xuan stopped rolling and looked up at him with a blank expression.

"How can I feel? Whether he's the crown prince or something else, it doesn't matter to me, I haven't been in touch with him for a long time. ”

Xiao Ti: "But he came to me today, he cares about you very much." ”

Yu Xuan rolled over and sat up, and scolded angrily.

"What is he looking for you? There's something wrong with him! ”

After scolding, she immediately covered her mouth again, her eyes rolled around, and she said awkwardly.

"I insult the future prince and won't be arrested, right?"

Xiao Ti was amused by her like that, and her eyebrows and eyes involuntarily stretched.

"What you say here will not be heard by anyone but me."

Yu Yuan put down his hand: "That's good, let me tell you, Shen Zhuo is so cheap, when his stepfather proposed to him, he refused to be called a neat and neat, without blinking, now that I have thrown him away, he wants to eat back grass?" Dream on! ”

After speaking, he rolled his eyes widely.

Xiao Ti: "Propose? ”

Yu Yuanyu: "It's been many years in the past, I didn't know his true identity at that time, my stepfather took a fancy to his talent and thought he was a manufacturable material, so he moved the idea of getting married." ”

It stands to reason that Xiao Ti should feel uncomfortable in her heart, but seeing that her words are frank and open-minded, and she has no emptiness, she knows that she really put down the things of the year.

Xiao Ti: One or two want to pry my corner, annoying.
