"Your Majesty, the folk rumors cannot be believed, but they must not be believed, if they are so popular, if you don't use the facts, I am afraid that you will not be able to stop the mouths of this leisurely people." The prime minister united several ministers of the court and followed the emperor into the imperial study after the next court.

The Emperor leaned back in his chair and looked at the three people in front of him, "That's why you found me?"

"Your Majesty, this matter is not trivial, and I am afraid that the Marquis of Shuofeng will quarrel with the court when he hears the news." The squire next to him took over the conversation, and the emperor's eyes narrowed, "What should you do with the three of you!"

"If you want to clear the suspicion of the Seventh Princess, the only way to do it is to test your relatives by dropping blood!"

The emperor was stunned, frowning and pondering.

At the back door of the Shen Mansion, two girls got out of a carriage, one blue and one white cloak blocked themselves tightly, the girl in white glanced around, and someone came out to pick up someone at the back door of the Shen Mansion.

Shen Zicheng waited in the study early in the morning when he received the news, looking at the case file at hand, until there was a knock outside the door, and he accepted the book.

"Enter!"

The girl in white pushed open the door and came in, canceling the hat of the cloak, it was expedient, and Ji Fu took her back to the Hou Mansion after she got better, and let people watch her every day, she was not allowed to leave the house, and someone would follow her when she left the house, and finally took advantage of the loophole to come out.

"Princess!" Shen Zicheng hurriedly got up, bowed, and asked Quan to sit down.

"General Shen, when I was kidnapped by You Xin, Master Hou looked for you, right?" I haven't seen him for a few days, and his face is getting more and more cold and thin, but his eyes are still bright and bright.

Shen Zicheng's eyes drooped slightly and raised again, and he knew that her news was correct. "Master Hou asked you to gather my father's old ministry with the token, for fear that the emperor and You Xin would join forces to kill me, right?"

Shen Zicheng knew that he couldn't hide it from her, so he could only nod and answer, "That's right."

"Where's the token?"

"Princess, this ......" Shen Zicheng was a little embarrassed for a while, and couldn't guess what she was going to do.

"The token is my father's belonging, so I'll have no problem coming back, right? This token was originally left for my protection, and I can do what Ji Fu wants to do, and for a valid reason!" Expedient, word by word, the tone is firm and unacceptable, and there is no reason to refuse.

"What Master Hou means, I can't let you know about this matter, success or failure will have to wait until everything is settled."

"He wants to stop me from knowing that my own revenge must be avenged, so please contact me more and wait for my news at any time."

"Okay!" Shen Zicheng's persuasion was fruitless, and he took out the token from his arms, "Princess, this thing must be hidden, so that no one can find it." Shen Zicheng instructed again and again, and only let go of her hand when he saw her nodding.

After discussion, Quan Yi followed the subordinates of the Shen Mansion to leave through the back door again, and after leaving, the people who followed behind him appeared.

Bai Manqing originally wanted to boil medicine for Shen Xuzhi, go to see the backyard door closed, and the guards who are usually rarely seen guard the door, but after asking, she knew that Shen Zicheng was going back to see the guests, and she felt a little strange to go around to the roof to know that the guests were expedient.

It is expedient that someone is watching in the Hou Mansion, and coming to the Shen Mansion so mysteriously must be an ulterior secret, which Ji Fu can't know.

"Qing'er, what are you looking at?" When she was thinking about it, Shen Xuzhi suddenly jumped out from behind her, and it was a little strange to see her brows furrowed.

Bai Manqing rolled his eyes, pulled Shen Xuzhi and walked a few steps forward, looking for a clean place, "The princess is here."

"Huh? Where?" Shen Xuzhi looked around and didn't see a figure.

"Tsk, be quiet!" Bai Manqing stretched out his hand and slapped him, pulled him and whispered in his ear, "The princess came by herself, and she came in quietly through the back door, and Dad also asked people to lock the backyard door."

"Quietly, what can she and my father ......say about it" Shen Xu was stunned, thought of a possibility, glanced at Bai Manqing, and said a little.

"What's wrong?" Bai Manqing asked puzzled.

Shen Xuzhi shook his head, "It's coming, why are you so mysterious?"

"I always feel that things are not simple, Hou Ye is afraid that the princess will not be able to think about it, afraid that she will do something stupid, so he has been sending people to follow her, and she will definitely not know when she comes alone. No, I have to tell Master Hou."

"Hey

"Oops!" Shen Xuzhi wanted to pull her, but he missed it with her arm perfectly, so he could only resign himself to follow.

As soon as Takei returned to the Hou Mansion, Ji Fuhe's house was still the same as it was on the day she got married, the house was full of red, the word Xi was pasted on the window and had not been removed, the furnishings in the house were simple, it looked like Ji Fu's usual style, and when the expedient came, the table, bed, and a screen were newly replaced.

As soon as Quan Yi changed his clothes, the maid from the Hou Mansion outside the door came to knock on the door, "Madam, Father-in-law Su from the palace is here, saying that His Majesty has invited you into the palace and has important matters to discuss."

Xiao He's eyes raised, and she went over and opened the door with a look of expediency, "What's the matter?"

"Sister Xiaohe, Gonggong Su in the palace is here, saying that His Majesty invites the princess into the palace for a while."

While she was talking, Quan Yi also dressed and came out of the house, and frowned slightly when she heard this, I am afraid that it may not be a good thing to summon her into the palace at this time.

"I see, you go back to him, I'll be right there."

"Yes!" The maid bowed and withdrew.

"Princess, what should I do?" Xiaohe looked back at the expediency.

"Go, if you don't go, it seems rude."

As soon as he arrived at the door of Wanhu, Bai Manqing walked directly inside, but Shen Xuzhi suddenly paused and let go of the hand holding her, "What's the matter, let's go?"

Shen Xuzhi waved his hand, "My stomach hurts, you go in first."

"Why does your stomach hurt, what are you doing?" Bai Manqing frowned and glared at him.

"Oh, you go in first, Ang, I'm waiting for you here!" Shen Xuzhi urged Bai Manqing to go in, and seeing that she was still helping her behind her back if she didn't move, Bai Manqing was directly pushed into the courtyard.

He breathed a sigh of relief, Ji Fu has a kind of magic, that is, the person who has done something bad will unconsciously shake his hands and panic when he sees him, and his eyes are still dodging when he speaks, he was afraid of Ji Fu before, it was purely his face and his serious expression, but he was not so bad that he couldn't speak clearly, but now......

He shook his head in fear as soon as he thought about it, and squatted directly in front of the stone lion on the side, watching the people coming and going on the street.

"Manqing, why are you here?" Yun was a little surprised when he saw her, but his brows were still tightly locked.

Bai Man swept his eyes around, some people were busy moving things out of the house, and there were people in the courtyard rummaging through boxes and cabinets, as if looking for something again, "What's the matter?"

Yun Yi shook his head, "The secret decree is gone."

Bai Manqing was stunned, a little incredulous, "That thing is not the master who is taking it......" As soon as she asked this sentence, she suddenly realized something, and looked at the person outside the door, no wonder she didn't dare to come in, it turned out to be ......

"Borrow a knife!" As she spoke, she snatched the knife from Yun Yi's hand, and before Yun Yi could react, he saw that she had gone out with the knife.

Shen Xuzhi was shaking his legs, he couldn't open his eyes because of the sun, and just got up and planned to stretch his waist and find a shady place, he had an extra knife on his neck. When he looked back, he saw Bai Manqing's eyes widening angrily, and he immediately raised his hand: "What's the matter, the sword has no eyes, Manqing, there is something to say!"

"Get in!" Bai Manqing estimated that there were many people on the street, and shouted for him to enter the hospital, Shen Xuzhi couldn't take care of anything else at this time, and said directly, "You be careful, hold the knife well!"

Ji Fu also listened to the noise of the two people in the house, and when he came out of the annoyance, Bai Manqing escorted Shen Xuzhi in, and the guards of Wanhumen were also very clever to close the door for the two of them.

"Say, does the secret matter have anything to do with you?" Bai Manqing raised his leg and kicked the crook of his leg, and he was about to hit Ji Fu with a grin, and saw that Ji Fu's face stopped.

Ji Fu's eyes furrowed, and he raised his chin to Bai Manqing, "What's the matter?"

"Today I saw the princess see his father from the backyard, I thought it was strange and wanted to come to you and say, this thing refused to come in at the door, and I thought he was strange when I came in and heard Yun Yi say this." Bai Manqing probably talked about today's events, and the last sentence was almost said through gritted teeth.

Ji Fu frowned, looked at Shen Xuzhi and raised his eyebrows, "Let's talk about it, Shen Gongzi!"

"I'm ......" Shen Xuzhi glanced at the few people present, and felt a sense of grievance that he couldn't say anything, but he couldn't resist the coercion of a few people, "The princess asked me to take it, and I stroked her to find my father."

It's for the token's business, she wants to take revenge herself, that's all my guess, I'm not sure."

"Shen Xuzhi, you really have something to hide from me!" Bai Manqing reached out and grabbed his ear, using a little strength.

Ji Fu became more and more uneasy in his heart, "You guys are watching here, I'll go back to the mansion."

"Master!" The secret guard from nowhere suddenly appeared in the courtyard, flew off the roof and went straight to Ji Fu, whispering a few words in front of him, Ji Fu was stunned.

The people around him instantly felt bad, "What's wrong?"

"Your Majesty has summoned expedient into the palace."

Expedient changed into a purple skirt, and Xiaohe helped her pull up her hair, compared with the ponytail that she simply lost, she dressed up like this more and more gentle and generous, her eyebrows and eyes are not like His Majesty today, nor like her mother, Father-in-law Su doesn't know if it is the illusion of listening to the rumors, and always feels that the seven princesses are more and more like the four princes, I hope he is wrong.

followed Gonggong Su all the way to the main hall, there were not only the emperor in the hall, but also the queen's mother and son and several ministers of the prime minister, Gonggong Su bowed and bowed.

After saluting expediently, she stood still in the distance, and the queen had a radiant face, and when she saw her, she could not help but look at her carefully, and indeed did not see any resemblance to the dead man.

"Yi'er, do you know what I'm looking for you for?" The emperor called out, but the queen on the side took his arm and smiled and signaled, "Your Majesty, come to the concubines."

After thinking about it, the emperor nodded and acquiesced, "Yi'er, you must have heard about the rumors in the court, although we don't believe the rumors, but it is inevitable that there will be different opinions, I am afraid that this rumor will spread everywhere, and it will not be good for your reputation."

Expedient held his head high, "The queen doesn't have to go around the bend, you might as well have something to say, and the retainer can do it."

The queen hooked her lips and smiled, but her eyes were full of calculations, "Our opinion with your father and the emperor is a blood test, what do you think?"
