Zhao Kezhen was stunned, her expectations were nothing more than two kinds, one was that Rong Zhan believed in herself and became disgusted with Wei Yuanxi. The second is that Rong Zhan didn't believe in himself, scolded himself, and drove himself away. But now it seems that neither is either, Zhao Kezhen panicked for a while, looked back at Yan'er, and said stubbornly: "Yan'er is the maid I brought from home, I really can't bear to watch her being beaten." ”

Rong Zhan played with a spoon in his hand, looked at Mother Zhong, and asked lightly, "How much did the crown princess just say she wanted to fight?"

Mother Zhong was stunned, who said she was going to beat someone just now? But after all, she watched Rong Zhan grow up, and she always had a sense of tacit understanding, Mother Zhong said slowly: "It seems to be thirty boards." ”

Rong Zhan nodded: "Framing the crown princess, it's not much to hit thirty boards, since Yan'er likes to beg so much, then Lone will fulfill her." Mother Zhong, go and call Qin Shun. ”

He bites the word "framed" very hard. Zhao Kezhen, Yan'er, and Yuan Xi, the three of them were stunned. Yan'er crawled to Rong Zhan's feet like a dog: "Your Highness, Your Highness is clear, the slave and maid are not, the slave and the maid are wronged, please spare the slave and the maid!"

Zhao Kezhen also pulled the corner of Rong Zhan's clothes and pleaded for Yan'er: "Your Highness, for the sake of the concubine sending tonic soup to the mother, you can spare Yan'er." ”

"This tonic soup was not made by her, what does it have to do with her?" Rong Zhan looked at Zhao Kezhen indifferently.

Zhao Kezhen was speechless for a while, and now she has to explain that this soup is made by Yan'er, which will be even more lively. She glanced at Yuan Xi with hatred, although she expected that Rong Zhan might not believe her, but she didn't expect that Rong Zhan would beat her maid thirty boards in order to protect Yuan Xi back.

Qin Shun took two small servants, holding a stool: "Your Highness, you can start." ”

Rong Zhan raised his hand and pointed at Yan'er: "It's her." ”

The two little guys both stepped forward and put Yan'er between their arms, Yan'er was so frightened that her legs were weak, could it be that today is the day she died?

"Hit it halfway. Yuan Xi finally said slowly: "The long memory is enough, Concubine Zhao's injury is not healed, so Yan'er was damaged like this, who will take care of Concubine Zhao?"

"Half?" Rong Zhan glanced at Yan'er: "Since the crown princess also intercedes for you, half is half." ”

Yan'er had a rag in her mouth, and there was a thud of wooden sticks and flesh in the courtyard. From the muffled voice, you can know that all of them are ruthless, the little guys have a score, the louder the beating, the less painful, but the real killing is the stuffy stick.

Yan'er opened her throat and cried, and even the rag in her mouth fell off. This cry, Rong Zhan, who was crying, was upset and walked away. After fifteen slaps, Yan'er didn't even have the strength to cry. Zhao Kezhen stretched out her arms and threw herself at Yan'er, Yan'er's buttocks had been beaten with a stick, and blood oozed out of her skirt, and the bright red was very dazzling.

Qin Shun arched his hand: "Crown princess, the minister has finished fighting." ”

"It's hard work General Qin. Yuan Xi gave Mother Zhong a look, and Mother Zhong took two ingots of five taels and distributed them to the two little servants under Qin Shun.

As soon as Qin Shun left, Zhao Kezhen dared to squint at Yuan Xi viciously: "Wei Yuanxi, you are so vicious." ”

Yuan Xi took a sip of the teacup: "Really? I'm ruthless? I think someone is asking for their own suffering." ”

Zhao Kezhen couldn't speak, and Yuan Xi asked again: "Look at the crow green under your eyes, you shouldn't have slept last night, right?"

Zhao Kezhen was stunned, turned her head to look at Yan'er, she guessed, or did she say that there were her eyes and ears in the yard?

"You're spying on me?!" Zhao Kezhen glared at Yuan Xi.

Mother Zhong sneered: "The crown princess is like a god, this little thing can be guessed." ”

"I didn't quarrel with the prince, aren't you disappointed?" Yuan Xi lowered his eyelids slightly, and tapped twice on the rim of the shark fin soup with chopsticks: "When I got up in the morning, I specially prepared this bowl of soup in order to come to the palace for trouble." ”

Zhao Kezhen snorted and twisted her face to the side.

Yuan Xi smiled slightly: "Of course, this palace will not generously reward you with some gold creation paste to treat Yan'er or you, because in that case, you can add something poisonous to the gold creation ointment, and then frame this palace." Mother Zhong ordered to go down and ask the account office to get twenty taels of silver for Concubine Zhao. These twenty taels, keep Concubine Zhao to buy medicine by herself."

"Yes, mother, the slave will order it in a moment. Mother Zhong couldn't help but smile and looked at Zhao Kezhen sideways. Stealing chickens doesn't make rice, and the drama of losing the wife and breaking the soldiers, how funny it is.

Zhao Kezhen helped Yan'er up, and Yan'er endured the pain on her mouth. She didn't say anything more and helped Yan'er back to her room.

After breakfast, an edict came from the palace, and Queen Xuan Yuanxi entered the palace to speak.

It's not a trivial matter to meet the queen, bathing, combing your hair, and even the pink del that you don't touch much on weekdays has to be smeared today. changed into a light jade-colored palace dress and brought some jewelry that was not eye-catching.

Rong Zhan was about to leave while he spoke, Yuan Xi wanted to go outside the city to see him off, but because the queen left Yuan Xi in the palace to live, he could only give up.

The queen arranged Yuanxi to live in a side room in her palace, and Zhong's mother followed her into the palace to serve. Mother Zhong is sophisticated, and she has been an old man in Rongzhan Mansion for many years, so the queen can naturally trust it.

The queen asked Yuanxi to enter the palace, firstly, to ease the relationship between some mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and secondly, to facilitate Yuanxi to comfort Princess Chenxiang. In the past few days, Princess Chenxiang's Cheng'an Palace has been heavily guarded, and even entering and exiting inside and outside needs to be carefully checked. Chenxiang always feels very boring living alone in Cheng'an Palace, because she is the only one in the huge palace, and no one can say a few words to her in the maid and inner prison, and she is very happy to see Yuanxi come to accompany her.

As soon as she saw Yuan Xi enter the door, she hurriedly threw herself into Yuan Xi's arms: "Good sister-in-law, you are here, you don't know, they don't allow me to go out, and no one talks to me, but I am suffocated." ”

Yuan Xi laughed, and said that this little princess's heart is really big, and she has just been stabbed by Zhao Shuxing, although she is said to be in danger, but she looks like she is not concerned at all. Yuan Xi stroked her neck, the red trace that Zhao Shu had strangled was still there, and it was really scary to look at.

"The emperor and the queen are both thinking about your safety, Zhao Shu hasn't been caught yet, what if she poisons you again? ”

Chen Xiang flattened her mouth: "Actually, I can't figure out why he suddenly wanted to kill me." We went on an expedition to the ruined palace, and at first he took good care of me, but then I hurt my foot, and he somehow suddenly stopped leaving, and didn't want people to find us. As soon as I shouted, he shut my mouth. ”

"Then he didn't treat you disrespectfully, did he?" Yuan Xiping asked after retreating from the maid.

"You're asking if he did anything he did with his hands?"

Won-hee nodded. Chenxiang pouted and thought for a while: "It's not true." ”

Doesn't count? Yes is yes, no is no, what does it mean not count? Yuan Xi shook his head helplessly, this princess is really not deeply involved in the world, and her judgment of human nature is vague.

Chenxiang took Yuanxi's hand and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, what is the name of the scholar who found me that day? I thought about it for a long time and couldn't remember, he seemed to have told me at the time, but I was too lied at that time, so I forgot it." ”

"That's my eldest brother, Wei Chengyong, what's wrong?" Yuan Xi saw that her cheeks were flushed, thinking she was having a fever, so he reached out to probe her forehead.

Chenxiang pushed her hand away and smiled coquettishly, "Oops, I don't have a fever." ”

"Wei Chengyong, this name is so strange, does it mean to be a mediocre talent?"

Yuan Xi was speechless, and said with a smile: "Confucian scholars in the Song Dynasty believed that Yongzi meant constant. My father wanted my eldest brother to become an impartial neutralizer, so he took the word 'yong'. Cheng is the character of our generation of boys. ”

"Oh," Chen Xiang nodded: "Yong, Yong, why isn't it called Chengzhong?"

Yuan Xi couldn't answer, so he could only smile speechlessly. Miyaka asked again, "Does he have a family?"

There is no family, but there is one suitor. In the past, she asked Lan Yu to wait, but later she heard that Lan Chengjie forced Lan Yu to marry, Lan Yu resisted desperately at home, crying darkly, and finally Lan Chengjie had no choice but to give up the matter.

Yuan Xi looked at Chen Xiang, and the woman's intuition told her that Chen Xiang might have a little affection for Cheng Yong. Yuan Xi didn't answer and asked: "Why did you suddenly ask about this?"

"What's wrong? I'm just asking. Chenxiang said, turning her head shyly.

No wonder there are often heroes saving beauty in the book, beautiful women swear to die with the story, usually when a woman is rescued by a man, it is the time when the man is most likely to exude personal charm, if the man is more good-looking, and the temper is gentle, then it is even more superior.

Yuan Xi was a little hesitant, if he said that there was, wouldn't that be tantamount to lying? Whether Lan Yu and Cheng Yong had a chance is still unknown. But if the answer is no, the princess said on a whim that she was going to marry Cheng Yong, what should Lan Yu do?

Yuan Xi smiled gently: "This, the princess might as well ask Cheng Yong directly." ”

Chen Xiang was a little helpless: "If there is, say yes, if there is no, if there is no, why do you want me to ask him?" She pointed to the door: "Besides, look at the gate of this palace, it is heavily guarded, I can't get out even if I want to ask." ”

Chenxiang shook Yuanxi's arm: "Oh, good sister-in-law, just tell me." ”

Chen Xiang insisted on getting to the bottom of it, but Yuan Xi couldn't help it, so he wanted to use something else to divert her attention: "Didn't you say that the palace is boring? I'll play hide and seek with you?"

Chen Xiang was stunned for a moment, "What is it called a blind man to recognize people." ”

"It's to be blindfolded, turn around ten times, and then touch it with your eyes closed, and when you touch a person, you touch her facial features and guess who she is. ”

Chenxiang's eyes widened: "This is good, then call all the girls in the palace over." ”

Yuan Xi nodded: "I'll call." ”

As soon as Yuan Xi stood up, Chen Xiang suddenly reacted: "Alas, bad sister-in-law, you lied to me, you haven't told me yet, does he have it?"
