"Pfft!" Liu Yanxue's chuckle finally drove away the long-standing depression in the cell.With a wave of her hand, she dissolved the chessboard and chess pieces one by one, and gently hugged the aggrieved little monkey into her arms.Resting his chin on its head, he said softly, "Xueji, thank you, thank you for coming to accompany me."

"Squeak." Xueji rolled over in Liu Yanxue's arms uneasily, a gloomy glint flashed in her dark eyes from an angle she couldn't see.

Da da, footsteps gradually approached from the other end of the corridor.Xueji tensed up all over, but relaxed after a while.The owner of the footsteps was holding a food box and walking slowly with her head bowed. It was Xueling.

"Less... Princess..." Tick, tick.Tears fell uncontrollably after seeing Liu Yanxue locked in the damp cage. She wiped the tears with one hand, and handed the food box into the cell tremblingly with the other, not daring to talk to Liu Yanxue again. Xue looked at each other, "Princess, this is... Madam asked her servants to deliver it, and it contains your favorite food, all made by Madam herself..."

"Well," Liu Yanxue took the food box, and the aroma of the food instantly filled the cell.With red eyes, she pushed away Xueji who was joining in the fun, suppressed the trembling of her fingers and opened the food box, "Thank you for me, Aunt...and Ajin."

"Princess...I..."

"It's not your fault, it's because I'm too arrogant," I shook my head with a wry smile, "I thought the capital was still here... Hehe, I thought I could be like before... But I don't know that this is the wolf nest, and you need to be cautious everywhere Live, otherwise you will stumble and fall into the abyss if you are not careful."

"princess……"

"Tell mother, I understand. Don't worry her and father, Ajin will definitely not let me have trouble." Xue Jina poked his head towards the food box, and Liu Yanxue patted it funny, Randomly found a piece of pastry for it. "Xue Ling, you should go back earlier, it is not suitable to stay here for long."

"...Xue Ling bid farewell."

……

Crack, the sound of the teacup falling to the table was extremely loud in the suffocating imperial study.He Kunjin still looked down at the ground, and moved her knees which had already lost consciousness due to kneeling for a long time, quite uncomfortably.

"What day is today?" After the desk table, He Yicheng, who had been drinking a cup of tea for some time, finally spoke.

"No. 16."

"How long is the time limit I gave you?"

"Fifteen days."

"Then what is the result I want? This mess, including Princess Qi and your own concubine, and making the court blow up, is that the result you gave me?"

"..." bowed his head in silence.

"Have you figured out how to explain it to me, your aggressive behavior this morning." Gently touched the rim of the teacup.

"My son..." took a deep breath, "There is nothing to explain. Whatever I want to say, my son has already said it at the court meeting."

"Have you said everything you need to say?" You slapped the table with your palm, and the tea splashed out, "You said that you wanted to take all the responsibility on yourself, so you said everything you need to say? I'm afraid that no one will know the case. You are in charge, Liu Yanxue, who is the most suspected person, is your princess? You have only been married for a few days, and you are wearing the same trousers with Liu Xiang? I don’t know, I thought I married my son to Liu Xiang Mansion, not I gave you a princess!"

"I didn't take the same side as Liu. I just discussed the matter. This matter really has nothing to do with Liu Xiang. The concubine of Erchen was also wronged."

"Heh, with Huoleng in your hands, how can you still be so righteous? You want to take care of the matter so much, is it true that when Prince Qi asks to pay with your life, you plan to pay with your own life?"

"If I really can't find the real culprit, I can only apologize in this way. The fire edges on the left and right belong to me."

"Say it again." The calm before the storm.

"The fire edge belongs to Erchen." There was no wavering repetition.

"The fire edge that is always attached to the followers of the Yi religion, you said," the teacup in your hand creaked, "is it yours?"

"Yes." Looking up at He Yicheng, his eyes were full of affirmation, "but please rest assured, my father is definitely not a follower of the Yi sect. As for why this son holds this fire edge, I will not answer."

Whoosh!A teacup flew towards He Kunjin's cheek, but she suppressed the urge to dodge and let it hit her forehead hard.

Boom, the porcelain cup collided with the skull; bang, the porcelain cup shattered to the ground.Beads of blood overflowed from the corner of her forehead, flowed down her eyebrows, into the corners of her eyes, flowed across her cheeks, and soaked the front of her clothes red.But she still knelt steadily, motionless, as if the one covered in blood was not herself, as if the teacup that came at high speed hit only a statue.

The air was frozen and suffocating.In the empty imperial study room, there was only the sound of blood falling to the ground.Tick, tick, tick.

After a long time, "Why don't you hide?" He Yicheng's voice was hoarse.

"... Is it useful to avoid it? What can be solved by avoiding it? Apart from deepening your anger, father." It was still the calm voice.

Slap!He jumped up and pointed at He Kunjin's nose, "How can I have a son like you? He beats and scolds, keeps everything in his stomach, can't knock a fart for a long time, but still stubborn like a cow! You are sophistrying, explaining, arguing, arguing! How come you are the youngest, but you are more old-fashioned than Palmer?"

"Is it useful to justify the noise? Can speaking out everything change the reality? I have been in Yan Kingdom for so many years, and I have never found them useful." I pursed my lips, "The results are the same, and I am not as good as you Say something useful, say something practical, say what you want to say."

He Yicheng paused with his hands raised in mid-air, "That Huoleng..." It seemed that he understood the reason why his son was unwilling to explain, and a burst of guilt welled up in his heart.

"Father, please rest assured. Give me another three days, and I will be able to find out the real culprit and give my father an explanation." Avoiding He Yicheng's topic, He Kunjin felt that he was taking advantage of his debt to him in this way. Some feel sorry.

"..." took a deep breath, and stuffed many words back into his stomach, "Since you are so confident, then as you said, I will give you three days to investigate." Rubbing between the eyebrows, Thinking about how to deal with He Kunjin, who has offended everyone today, in order to satisfy the officials, "I see that you seem to have the ability to solve everything by yourself, so the prince's small one-year salary will be enough for you." You don't need it, do you?"

"...Thank you, father."

Seeing He Kunjin's back with stiff legs and feet, bleeding forehead, and leaving silently, He Yicheng rubbed the center of his brows.

"Wait a minute," He Kunjin turned his head and reached out to take the things thrown by He Yicheng, "Wipe your face, as if something is wrong with you."

"..."

……

Pat, a tear fell on Xueji's forehead.It blinked, scratched its neck, and reached out to wipe the corners of the sleeping man's eyes.It looked down at its fingertips, and there was a pool of clear springs in its eyes; the hair on its fingertips was wet, and it rubbed and licked it earnestly.Papa, papa, another series of tears hit the forehead, it stretched out its hand to touch it, but grinned for a long time.It tilted its head, staring at Liu Yanxue's sleeping face dripping with tears; it folded its hands together, storing the gushing tears in its palms.

Xueji's actions seemed to have awakened Liu Yanxue. She shook her arms and rubbed her eyes. Surprise, loss, and joy flashed through her sleepy eyes after seeing the candlelight in the cell.She stared at Xueji's shiny black pupils, grabbed its tearful hand, held it in her arms, and murmured to herself, "Is it a dream? Really? Fake? If it's fake It's alright...A Jin, he...A Jin, you...that fire edge...I..." Tears blurred his vision again.
