After getting angry, Xiao Qin figured out the whole story almost instantly.

The third prince Yu Shu, who claimed to be the owner of Daoxianglou, found an excuse to get close to him, and led him to taste the wine in the shop, and "by the way" chat about topics that cannot be brought up in public.

This kind of "encounter" was coincidental and natural enough. Even if Yu Yi knew about it, she probably wouldn't suspect that the two of them had some kind of relationship in private.

Recalling what Yu Shu said just now, it seems that it really didn't mean that the two met for the first time.

I'm afraid that the third prince still thinks that Xiao Qin's response just now is really to cooperate with his acting.

Xiao Qin frowned secretly, thinking that he had to find an excuse to tell Yu Shu not to do such a thing again.

He is not the original owner, so it is impossible to help him, and it is even more impossible to pass information to him secretly.

"Huh," Yu Shu saw that the faces of the two were uglier than the other, but they both held back and said nothing, so he had to find a way for himself, "Brother Huang, don't let people see the joke, the dignified princess, is it just so little?" Upbringing?"

He was far away, he seemed to be unable to hear the people's discussions, and he didn't know the whole process of directing and acting himself, knocking down Qingyuan's lunch box, many people saw it.

Or maybe he heard it, but didn't pay attention to it at all.

Not all sons of aristocratic families are like Xiao Qin, who can talk to street vendors in a polite and calm manner.

Most of them are people like Yu Shu, and they don't have nothing to do to bully men and women, but if he really takes the words of these ordinary people seriously, it is impossible.

May be different.

Maybe it's because his mother is a dancer, born in Yanhuo Lane, unlike those ladies from aristocratic families married in deep boudoirs, who don't understand the sufferings of the world.

Or maybe it's just because Yu Yinjiang protected him so well.

He has a pure personality, he doesn't need to compete for favor, let alone do some domineering things to squander this favor, so he can always devote a lot of thought to consider the feelings of others.

"Xiao Tan, did you hear what the third prince said?"

Yu Yi spoke coldly, in a bad mood and even worse in tone.

Xiao Qin pondered for a while, and felt that the current situation was really tricky. The third prince framed him for bumping into him, just to cover up for him in front of Yu Yi, lest Yu Yi suspect him.

But he was not the original owner, so not only did he not understand what he meant, but he also mistakenly thought that the other party was an assassin, which made Yu Yi be careful.

What's more terrible is that his current identity is not the abandoned son brought back by Xiao Zhengze from outside, but the dignified eldest son of Prince Xiao's mansion. Even if he is not in good health and has been recovering from illness, it is unlikely that he has not even seen his brother-in-law.

After thinking about it, Xiao Qin decided to take a step back and apologize according to the words of the third prince, and understand the matter first.Otherwise, if the entanglement continues, there will be no result. If it arouses the other party's hatred, it will cause trouble for Yu Yi.

"Your Highness, what happened today is indeed—"

Xiao Qin felt that his idea was okay, and he was ready to "admit his mistake" immediately. The sooner the matter was resolved, the better they could return home earlier, so as not to suffer from the wind and cold again.

Reluctantly, he was willing to compromise, but Yu Yi refused. Before Xiao Tan could say a word, Yu Yi cut it off.

"To shut up."

"boarding."

Yu Yi breathed out, today's event is a good opportunity, Yu Yinjiang has a good impression of Yu Shu in recent years, the latter is also considered up to date, and those problems in private have not caused Yu Yinjiang.

Now that the East Palace incident happened, Yu Yinjiang was at the time when he was very suspicious of the other princes. If he didn't take the opportunity to suppress Yu Shu at this time, it would be even more difficult to do so in the future.

Xiao Qin is quite clever, knowing that retreat is the only way to advance, and it seems that Yu Shu has not been drawn to him for the time being.

Because of Yu Yi's two words, the growing discussion around him suddenly stopped.

Everyone is guessing the weight of Young Master Xiao's family in Yu Yi's heart.

"Your Highness..." Xiao Tan was a little taken aback.

"Don't talk nonsense, wait until I go down to invite you in person?" Yu Yi squinted at him.

Naturally, Xiao Tan didn't dare to let him come down to invite him, not to mention whether it was in accordance with the law or not. Yu Yi had been warming up by the stove for a long time in the car, and came out rashly to catch a cold.

He pursed his lips, walked into the carriage without saying a word, and sat beside Yu Yi.

Seeing him coming up, Yu Yi put down the curtain and leaned back on the cushion.

"Yu Shu, if you have nothing to do, you might as well go to the East Palace to see the emperor, why bother me with the palace."

Yu Yi smiled frivolously, but her tone was slightly resentful.

Standing outside, Yu Shu was already dizzy from Xiao Qin's anger, but now hearing what Yu Yi said, he thought he was mocking him for his ignorance of the situation in the East Palace, so he immediately turned back: "Brother Dahuang is seriously injured, Naturally, it's inconvenient for me to disturb his rest, so it's better for the second emperor brother to keep out of sight."

The two deliberately lowered their voices, and the onlookers didn't know what they said at all. They only heard a cold snort from the carriage, and the carriage of Duanwangfu started to move.

"Your Highness," Xiao Tan hesitated to speak while sitting in the car.

"What?" After counting on Yu Shu, Yu Yi was in a good mood, and seeing Xiao Qin was a bit pleasing to the eye.

"Just now, Your Highness...was defending me?"

"Cough, cough, cough—" Yu Yi was drinking tea when she choked on the words.

He looked at Xiao Qin in disbelief, but saw that the other party's eyes were full of clarity, as if he was asking seriously.

"You just wanted to apologize to Yu Shu, why!?" Yu Yi couldn't believe it, could it be that Xiao Tan didn't see his plan?

"Of course I'm afraid of causing trouble to Prince Duan's Mansion," Xiao Qin said naturally, seeing Yu Yi frowning, he added, "I don't want His Highness to stay outside for too long, lest I get caught in the cold again."

"..."

Yu Yi was silent for a while, and felt for the first time that Xiao Tan was so stupid, and he didn't know if he would live to the end in his last life.

He has been following Yu Yinjiang's secret guards all year round, and he will not report daily trivial matters, but this kind of conflict with other princes in the street, does not need to be the next day, Yu Yinjiang will know tonight.

Whether it's a big deal or a small thing today, people who don't know the inside story will look like it's Yu Shu's trouble for Xiao Qin in the street.

To put it bluntly, it is to make trouble for Prince Duan's mansion and make Yu Yi look bad.

Normally, Yu Yinjiang would have to reprimand Yu Shu, but that was all, but the bad thing was the last few words they said.

"Yu Shu, if you have nothing to do, you might as well go to the East Palace to see Brother Huang. Why bother me with the Prince's Mansion." .”

Now that the news of the Huayulou explosion is still locked in the palace, it is not surprising that Yu Yi knows it, but how did Yu Shu know it?

Of course, the prince who wants to seize the heirloom does not have a few spies in his hands. Yu Yinjiang also came from the prince, so he must be well aware of this method.

But it’s okay to have spies, and it’s okay to investigate things in the palace.However, if it was discovered during the investigation, or if it was exposed publicly, it would be a challenge to the imperial power, and Yu Yinjiang could not tolerate it.

Tomorrow at the latest, Yu Shu will definitely be called into the palace.

At that time, he has nothing but two choices:

Either admit that he was the one who instigated the Huayulou case, or he can only say that the spies around the third prince have already lurked in the palace.

The former will lose his head, and the latter will inevitably be severely punished.

Counting it, he should really thank Concubine Li for making Yu Shuyang so outspoken that he can say anything about the East Palace without thinking.

"I'm not defending you," Yu Yi had no choice but to answer, seeing Xiao Tan's still puzzled expression.

"Understood," Xiao Tan immediately answered, "Is that planning for the Third Highness?"

Yu Yi sighed, only now did she realize that there was nothing to be happy about.

Seeing that Yu Yi didn't deny it, Xiao Qin knew that he was right. He really just wanted to solve the matter quickly, and he didn't think of so much at that time.

Seeing that Yu Yi's mood suddenly improved, and she said that she was not defending him, it could only be because of the third prince.

He didn't ask aloud, but secretly pondered in his heart, thinking about the secret of Yu Yi's actions.

There may be many such situations in the future, and what is harmless today may not be the case next time.

But it doesn't matter, he doesn't believe that those court ministers were born to understand these tricks, and they didn't learn it after they entered the court and became officials.

Although he was not as expected, he was still much better than the original master.

After thinking about it all the way, Xiao Qin sorted it out carefully, and finally figured out the cause and effect.

The guard happened to say respectfully: "Your Highness, Eldest Young Master, you have already returned home."

"Understood." Xiao Qin replied, reaching out to wake Yu Yi up, but Yu Yi's body temperature was frighteningly hot.

"Your Highness."

Xiao Qin frowned, and tested the temperature of Yu Yi's forehead with the back of his hand.

Very hot.

The wind and cold still came after all.

Yu Yi was so dizzy with fever, but she asked Xiao Tan to take his hands away with a hoarse voice, and insisted on getting out of the carriage by herself.

Xiao Qin supported him with his arms behind his back.

"Oh my master, what's wrong with you!?" Duan Fangzhu came out with someone to greet him, seeing Yu Yi's pale face, he was so frightened that he almost lost his mind.

"Why is it burning again, go quickly, call the imperial doctor!"

Yu Yi was shocked by his howl, and her feet were already unstable, but she couldn't stand still for a while, and fell backwards shaking.

Xiao Tan threw his arms around, simply hugged Yu Yi, and stepped into the bedroom in two or three steps.

"Slow down, slow down, but don't touch it." Duan Fangzhu was sweating anxiously, and ordered the maid to bring over the prepared ginger soup.

Xiao Tan laid Yu Yi flat on the bed, and wanted to step aside, but this man grabbed her by the sleeve.

"Xiao Tan, don't leave."

Yu Yi was probably really burnt out, she held on to Xiao Qin's sleeve tightly and kept mumbling.

Xiao Tan hesitated for a moment, then walked to the bed and sat down, tucking the corner of the quilt for Yu Yi.

After sitting quietly for a while, the maid who fetched ginger soup finally came back.

"My lord, let His Highness drink a bowl of ginger soup."

Duan Fangzhu handed the bowl to Xiao Tan, who took it and handed it back.

"It's better for you to come, I'm afraid your Highness will be burned."

With that said, Xiao Tan got up and moved away from the seat beside the bed, leaving the sleeves awkwardly in Yu Yi's hands.

Feeding ginger soup is still a bit too intimate.

That day, outside the East Palace, he felt anxious for the first time.

Feel flustered, more anxious.

He didn't understand what emotion it was, but he guessed it was liking.

But after thinking about it, he felt that something was wrong. He had never liked others, but the feeling at that time was distinctly strange and familiar, as if he had experienced it at any time and place.

Moreover, my parents said before that the so-called "like" is a very important and cautious emotion. How could it come so easily?

Xiao Tan sighed, looking at the pale face of the person on the bed, his gaze was complicated.

In the book, Yu Yi loves the original owner to death, but he is not the original owner, and I'm afraid he can't do the same thing as the original owner.

What if Yu Yi gradually fell in love with "Xiao Tan" as written in the book.

Xiao Tan has never loved anyone before, so he doesn't know how to love at all.

He has always had a kind of sympathy for Yu Yi who has no ambitions, and wants to face the dangerous situation in the court together with him, but he doesn't know how to deal with the relationship between the two.

His status is embarrassing, not a staff member, not a secret guard, but Duan Wangfei, a husband and wife must support each other, but if Yu Yi really becomes the Ninth Five Supreme, the two are destined to be separated.

so complicated.

Xiao Tan sighed again, gently pulled out his sleeve, and stuffed Yu Yi's hand back under the quilt.

Before the imperial doctor came, Yu Yi wrapped herself in the quilt in discomfort, talking nonsense to herself.

"Father punished me today...he has never punished me before."

The emperor punished him?

Xiao Qin was taken aback.

How could the emperor punish Yu Yi now, the soonest will be next autumn.

Could it be that Yu Yi has been worried that this kind of thing will happen, so she has such a dream?
