"Xiaochun, I'm going to take a good rest these two days. If anything happens, you can just take care of it yourself." After saying that, she patted Xiaochun on the shoulder, and then walked towards her residence.

Xiaochun naturally agreed wholeheartedly, and waited for Xue Jinruo's figure to disappear before preparing to go back to the room, but suddenly she found a figure heading towards the back door, and she followed him as soon as her heart moved.

By the faint light at the back door, Xiaochun recognized that this man was actually a long-term man. There must be something wrong with him leaving the house through the back door in the middle of the night, so she immediately followed him.

……

Chang Shui walked around the street, and finally stopped at the back door of a large house. Then he expertly knocked on the door, and then someone opened the door and let him in.

Xiaochun felt that this place looked very familiar, and when he walked around to the main entrance, he realized that this was the Prince's Mansion.

Xiaochun witnessed the whereabouts of Chang Shui with her own eyes and couldn't help but widen her eyes. It was really difficult for her to associate Chang Shui with the prince, not to mention that Chang Shui was Sheng Jingze's secret guard and was involved in many things.

But the scene in front of her kept flashing by. Even if she didn't want to believe it, she had no choice. Then she saw Chang Shui sneaking out of the back door. She came back first to report to Xue Jinruo. After all, she There is no need to avoid people on the way, it will definitely be faster than coming back from Changshui.

She hurriedly entered the house and then hurriedly walked towards Xue Jinruo's room. She knocked on the door a few times but there was no movement inside. It seemed that Xue Jinruo was already asleep. She had no choice but to finally turn her gaze to After searching for a long time, he finally found an open window. He quickly opened the window and went in. He walked to Xue Jinruo's bed and started calling her.

"Wake up, Princess, something big has happened!" Xiaochun was worried that something would happen again, so she had to listen to Xue Jinruo.

Xue Jinruo was already dreaming, but when he heard Xiaochun's words, he woke up from his dream: "What happened?"

Her eyes were bleary, and she shook her head hard to regain consciousness. She frowned and asked, "Xiaochun? How did you get in?"

"Princess, this is not important. Just now I saw Changshui slip out of the back door..." Xiaochun waved his hand and told Xue Jinruo exactly what happened just now.

After hearing this, she sat up immediately. Her eyes flickered and her emotions could not be seen. She did not expect that there was really a traitor in the Regent's Palace, or she did not expect that Chang Shui would become a traitor.

"I just asked the prince and he confirmed that Chang Shui is a trustworthy person. How could it be..." She pursed her lips. It seemed that Sheng Jingze's vision of people was not good at all.

However, she trusts Xiaochun.

"Don't expose any flaws, so as not to alert the enemy," Xue Jinruo calmed down and ordered, "Continue to pay attention to his whereabouts."

"Yes, Princess." Xiaochun said and left Xue Jinruo's bedroom. However, after this commotion, she couldn't sleep at all.

Ever since Xue Jinruo told Xiaochun to keep an eye on Changshui, she had been following Changshui intentionally or unintentionally, day and night. However, she didn't know if Changshui was on guard, but she didn't find anything unusual at all for several days.

This day, she finally discovered the clue. When she saw Chang Shui and the housekeeper of the Prince's Mansion meeting, she walked over quietly, wanting to hear what they had to say.

She also heard it as she wished, but the words she heard made her eyes turn cold, and then she quietly returned to the road and quickly went to report to Xue Jinruo.

……

"Princess, I followed him today, and he went to see the housekeeper of the Prince's Mansion again." Xiaochun said, becoming more and more angry: "I vaguely heard them talking about the Xue family."

"The housekeeper of the Prince's Mansion was very cautious. His voice was too soft and I couldn't hear much clearly. What Chang Shui said was very true."

Xue Jinruo also became interested and listened carefully to Xiaochun's report: "Changshui actually told the housekeeper that the Xue family was showing signs of turning over, and asked him to find the prince quickly to find a solution."

Sure enough, Xue Jinruo frowned with a cold expression after hearing this.

She can now be absolutely certain that the false accusation and frame-up of the Xue family must have something to do with Sheng Chengjie.

"Princess?" Xiaochun looked at Xue Jinruo, who was lost in thought, and couldn't help but remind her softly.

"Well, there is still a lack of evidence." Xue Jinruo came back to his senses and murmured to himself.

Xiaochun on the side knew that she must be thinking about the whole matter, so she got up and went out to continue staring at Changshui.

After some thought, Xue Jinruo decided to go to the palace to find Prince Rouran to see if he could gain anything new.

She was just about to leave when Sheng Jingze and others came back, along with Xue Xueyao. Seeing this, Xue Jinruo was ready to stay for a while before leaving.

As soon as Sheng Jingze walked in, Xue Xueyao shouted that she was going to make a tonic for him, "My lord, you must be exhausted from the long journey. I will help you make a tonic. After you drink it, take a good rest."

After saying that, she looked shy, as if she was deliberately trying to make Xue Jinruo misunderstand something.

But Xue Jinruo was completely indifferent to this.

But Sheng Jingze stopped her and said, "Don't worry, you have to go into the palace with me first. Concubine Min must be given an explanation for Sheng Xian's madness."

Xue Xueyao seemed to have received a blow when she heard this. She was stunned for a moment and began to speak vaguely: "The reason why the Sixth Princess went crazy has nothing to do with me."

But Sheng Jingze didn't believe what she said. Her dazed moment just now was enough to explain the problem. Although it might not be directly related, she definitely knew something about the situation.

"You have to enter the palace with me. Even if you say it has nothing to do with you, it's useless." Sheng Jingze grabbed Xue Xueyao's arm and walked out. His words were too stiff to allow Xue Xueyao to refuse.

"My lord, you scratched me and it hurts me!" Seeing this, Xue Xueyao knew that she couldn't hide, so she started to lie, crying that her hand hurt from being scratched.

But Xue Jinruo has been watching with cold eyes, without any sympathy in his heart.

After all, not only Sheng Jingze, but also she suspected that this matter had something to do with Xue Xueyao.

But Sheng Jingze still didn't let go of her hand, and still pulled her outside. Xue Xueyao had no choice but to take risks and pretend to be fainted immediately.

She had used this move many times, and she was very proficient. As soon as she closed her eyes, she fell straight down, and even if she hit her nose, she didn't make a sound. It looked like it was real.

Sheng Jingze's footsteps were suddenly stopped, and then he turned back and frowned at Xue Xueyao, but she didn't move at all.

When Xue Jinruo saw this, he poured a cup of tea and prepared to pour it on her face. She didn't believe that Xue Xueyao could continue to pretend to be faint after pouring this bowl of tea.
