"Don't worry, the body has been disposed of, there is nothing here." Qingyun warned, her tone impatient.

Hearing the meaning of Qingyun's words, he didn't dare to be coy anymore. Came in.

"It's really a sin to make you stand there for so long."

Someone brought chairs over and everyone sat down. The thumping of the legs was relaxing, and the atmosphere relaxed. Only Zhu Jianing's nervousness was unusually obvious.

"What's wrong with Miss Zhu? Why are you sweating?" Qingyun deliberately focused her eyes on her.

Zhu Jianing became even more nervous, "It's okay, maybe it's because the weather is too hot."

"That's good. I thought Miss Zhu had a guilty conscience."

"How could it be? My daughter has not done anything bad, how could she feel guilty?" Zhu Jianing smiled, very unnaturally.

"Really? Does Miss Zhu know how Qiuyue got to the west wing?"

"Isn't it winter snow?".

As soon as Zhu Jianing finished speaking, she knew that she had said something wrong. Covering your mouth was of no use, the words had come out and there was no use regretting them now.

The suspicious eyes of other ladies also fell on her, Qingyun raised her lips and said, "How did Miss Zhu know it was Dongxue?"

"Because... because I asked before, I saw Dongxue was lively and cute, so I chatted with her for a few words, so I knew the name."

"That's great. Child Zhu hasn't answered this princess yet. How did Dongxue appear in the west wing?"

"This... I don't know."

"I don't know whether I really don't know or I don't know. Miss Zhu needs to think carefully. Dongxue is not mute."

Zhu Jianing immediately knelt down and said, "Princess, please spare your life, Princess, please spare your life. I am just confused for a moment, please don't kill me."

"Speak for yourself, or ask this princess to help you."

Qingyun's sharp eyes fell on her, and Zhu Jianing no longer dared to hide it.

She was originally frightened because Qingyun executed Chu Yi, but now her secret has been exposed. She couldn't make up for it even if she wanted to.

"On the way to the lotus pond, the noble ladies chatted with Dongxue and learned her name. She said that there was a lot of humidity near the pond and asked her to go to the west wing to get a cloak. Then... ."

"How do you know Chu Yi is in the west wing?".

"When my daughter arrived, she accidentally saw Mr. Chu taking a woman to the west wing."

"Zhu Jianing, why did you do this? Did my maid offend you?".

This was what Qingyun couldn't understand the most. She even thought about it being designed by Li Shumiao, but she couldn't think of a reason.

When she saw Zhu Jianing in such a panic, she felt that it was Zhu Jianing who did it. But this was the first time Dongxue and Zhu Jianing had met, and she couldn't figure out what grudge the two had.

"Who dared her to humiliate me like this? How can she be worthy of a maid?", looking at the pride in Zhu Jianing's eyes.

Qingyun felt terribly uncomfortable, and it turned out to be because of her. Dongxue understands her temperament very well, and also sees that she doesn't like Zhu Jianing's clinging, which is why she embarrasses Zhu Jianing like this. Unexpectedly, she would hold a grudge over this. And the most important thing is her acquiescence.

Qingyun looked up at the sky to prevent tears from falling. There was an extra brocade handkerchief in front of her, she took it and wiped her eyes.

"Zhu Jianing, the person you should hate is this princess. It shouldn't be her. How could she do such a thing without my instructions? Why don't you take revenge on me?"

"me......".

"If you can't tell it, I will say it for you. It's because you don't dare, and it's because of my identity. You think Dongxue is just a maid, and even if something happens, I won't care, right? Not too?".

Seeing Qingyun's excited look, Zhu Jianing already regretted it. He could only lower his head and say nothing.

"If you don't say anything, it means that the princess has guessed correctly." Qingyun took a deep breath and said, "Zhu Jianing, how long have you been in the capital?".

"Two...two months."

"Then have you ever inquired about my maids? In the entire capital, who doesn't know that my princess and the four maids are sisters. Whoever meets them is not respectful. But you are the only one who doesn't put her in In my eyes, you...are nothing?"

Qingyun couldn't bear it any longer, her eyes turned red, her nose became sore, and big tears fell down. Rather than hating Zhu Jianing, she hated herself even more because she couldn't even protect her maid.

If it hadn't been for her wanton behavior, how could Zhu Jianing have hated her. The same goes for the former secret guard, and so does the current Dongxue.

She's not smart, not at all. The secret guards Yan Siyuan gave her were all the best. She knew this and was clear about it. So he used these secret guards at will and exposed them to others.

If she hadn't done this and just kept the secret guards hiding in the dark, they wouldn't have died. Qingyun thought this way countless times, but she had no chance to do it again.

So when Jin San'er appeared, her first reaction was to kill him to avenge the secret guard.

And now, she wants to avenge Dongxue. Wiping away tears with a brocade handkerchief, "Zhu Jianing has a plan to destroy people's innocence, and is narrow-minded and vicious. He will be severely punished with a heavy fine of twenty pieces, driven out of the capital, and will never be allowed to enter the capital."

Zhu Jianing couldn't accept this result. If she couldn't enter Beijing, what would Chu Wei do? Chu Wei will definitely break off the engagement with her. She had finally come to the capital, and she absolutely couldn't leave.

She wanted to get closer to Qingyun and plead for mercy, but as soon as she took a step forward, she was stopped. Only then did she realize how far away she was from Qingyun.

When Zhu Jianing was taken down, Qingyun didn't even look at her. Turned around and left. She was going to see how the winter snow was. Yan Siyuan followed her.

Qing Xiao glanced at the remaining people, "You ladies should all know what to say when you go back. Today's lotus banquet was good, please go back."

Is the lotus feast good? Don’t be fooled if you’re not scared to death. As for what to say when they go back, they are like a mirror. They must be praising Qingyun and Qingxiao.

Standing at the door of Dongxue's room, Qingyun hesitated. Yan Siyuan pushed her and pushed her in directly.

After Qingyun entered, she saw Dongxue huddled up. Didn't even change clothes. He still wore the same cloak, and beside him was the anxious Qiuyue.

"Miss, Dongxue seems to be frightened."

Qingyun took off her shoes, came to Dongxue, held her in her arms and comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid, it's okay, it's okay, I will protect you."

Dongxue finally reacted, hugged Qingyun fiercely, and started crying. I cried for a long time before I stopped. Probably because he was tired from crying, he fell asleep unconsciously.

Qingyun carefully put the person down, "Don't wake her up, let her sleep for a while."

"Okay", Qiuyue was standing by.

Qingyun walked out of the door, but Yan Siyuan was still guarding the door. Qingyun glanced at him and said, "Follow me." He took two steps forward and didn't notice Yan Siyuan following him.
