The two looked at each other silently for a while, Concubine Zhong Shu finally noticed something was wrong from Ji Xinxue's expressionless face, she took two steps forward, wanting to touch Ji Xinxue's face, "Xue Nu."

Ji Xinxue grabbed Niangzi Zhong's hand, and moved her gaze from Niangzi Zhong's face to the hand that was so close to him.

Although Mrs. Zhong was a female official in her early years, she has been pampered and pampered for more than ten years after she entered the Jiawang Mansion. Her hands are more delicate than Ji Xinxue's calloused hands due to her diligence in copying books recently. It is completely impossible to tell that the owner of these hands is nearly [-] years old. people.

Just a little bit, these hands will hold the medicined tea and hand it to him.

He would hold the tea to the new emperor unpreparedly, and watch the new emperor drink the cup of tea.

Ji Xinxue violently pushed Concubine Zhong Shu away, retched while leaning on the tea table.

Concubine Zhong Shu was pushed away by Ji Xinxue unexpectedly, and took a few steps back to stabilize her body. Anxiety appeared on her face, and she walked towards Ji Xinxue quickly, "Xue Nu, what's wrong with you, but I don't feel well for dinner."

Ji Xinxue closed her eyes and leaned back on the chair, silently clenched the porcelain bottle in her hand.

He had a lot of things he wanted to ask Concubine Zhong Shu, but all these words were crowded in his throat, and he didn't know which one to ask first.

First ask Concubine Zhong Shu if she knows that the Empress Dowager Jiang and the Empress Dowager Su are in dire straits, why would she trust the words of Princess Dekang at this time?

Or ask Concubine Zhong Shu if she knows the consequences of drugging the emperor?

Before these words were spoken, Ji Xinxue could already predict Concubine Zhong Shu's reaction.

Concubine Zhong Shu only cares about the small Jianjia Palace, and doesn't care about the rivalry between Empress Dowager Jiang and Empress Dowager Su at all.

As for the consequences of drugging the emperor... Concubine Zhong Shu may know, but she never thought about the possibility of failure or exposure after success. How much risk to take for this matter.

She didn't even think about how much pain Ji Xinxue would suffer because of this, because the source of her doing this was for Ji Xinxue's good.

The more Ji Xinxue analyzed Concubine Zhong Shu's thoughts, the more desperate she became.

He and Concubine Zhong Shu went from the small courtyard of the Wangfu to the Qixia Courtyard and then to the palace. The restraints on their bodies became less and less, and their lives became more and more comfortable. Why did Concubine Zhong Shu become so unrecognizable that he could hardly recognize her?

Concubine Zhong Shu belatedly noticed Ji Xinxue's anger from Ji Xinxue's cold attitude, panic flashed in her eyes, and she tried to persuade Ji Xinxue, "Xue Nu, this is just medicine to make you no longer have younger brothers and sisters, never There will be other effects."

Ji Xinxue sat on the chair like a sculpture, not paying any attention to Concubine Zhong Shu.

"Aniang only has you as a child, how could she not consider for you wholeheartedly?" Concubine Zhong Shu's eyes shed tears. "But you, Aye, not only have you, but also your brothers and sisters. There may be more children in the future. Every time there is a child in the palace, your Aye's eyes on you will be reduced by half."

Ji Xinxue was still indifferent, and the almost indiscernible pain between her brows gradually turned into indifference.

It's a pity that Concubine Zhong Shu, who was getting more and more flustered, didn't notice Ji Xinxue's unprecedented indifference, and was still racking her brains to find a way to persuade Ji Xinxue.

"Do you think that you have a marriage contract with the king of Xianglin County, even if your Aye's attention is attracted by the new born emperor's heir, your life will not change?" Concubine Zhong Shu cruelly mentioned that it has always been held in her heart, making her feel like a stick in her throat. thing.

Ji Xinxue opened her eyes, and there was no wavering in her gaze on Concubine Zhong Shu.

Seeing Ji Xinxue like this, Concubine Zhong Shu suddenly felt uncontrollable panic. The person in front of her was obviously a child she raised since she was a child, how could... how could she look at her with such strange eyes?

Concubine Zhong Shu stopped thinking in fear, and instinctively told Ji Xinxue what she wanted to say, "You can't marry Xianglin County King, your engagement will be void sooner or later!"

"Why?" Ji Xinxue asked Concubine Zhong Shu in a hoarse voice.

Of course he knew that the marriage contract was just a stopgap measure, he and Yu Heng would not get married, but he wanted to hear Concubine Zhong Shu personally explain why.

Seeing that Ji Xinxue was finally willing to respond to her, Concubine Zhong Shu was overjoyed and repeated the old saying, "Xue Nu, you have to believe that Auntie will not harm you, after all Auntie only has you..."

"Why?" Ji Xinxue interrupted Concubine Zhong Shu, stubbornly wanting to get an answer from Concubine Zhong Shu, "Why can't I marry Yu Heng?"

Concubine Zhong Shu fell into hesitation under Ji Xinxue's persistent gaze.

Because she knew that Ji Xinxue was not a princess but a prince, even if Ji Xinxue still wanted to conceal her identity through marriage in the future, the person who cooperated with Ji Xinxue in concealing her identity should not be the King of Xianglin.

Out of the corner of Concubine Zhong Shu's eyes, she caught a glimpse of the porcelain vase that Ji Xinxue was holding tightly in her hand, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and she said in a strange way, "You, Aye, love Xianglin County King far more than you, and you will take Xianglin County King with you all day long. Almost the same as King Ling, I will definitely find a way to find a better marriage for King Xianglin in the future."

When Ji Xinxue heard this, the last gleam of warmth in his eyes dissipated, he lowered his head, and with difficulty unfolded his stiff knuckles to put the porcelain bottle containing the pills into his purse, "Leave the medicine here for now, and wait until my birthday. "

There is no room for him to intervene in this matter, the only thing he can do is to stabilize Concubine Zhong Shu first, so as not to startle the snake.

When Concubine Zhong Shu heard that Ji Xinxue was finally willing to let go, the uneasiness and fear in her heart immediately dissipated completely.

She tightly choked her palms, restraining the thought of telling Ji Xinxue how to prescribe medicine so that the new emperor would not see the clues.

Xue Nu is pure in nature, she has to slowly convince Xue Nu to insist on drugging the new emperor, and then instruct Xue Nu on the details of drug administration, so as not to force Xue Nu to be too hasty and cause Xue Nu to develop a rebellious mentality.

Concubine Zhong Shu adjusted secretly for a while, and finally her excitement eased. She reached out to Ji Xinxue's purse, "Put the medicine here first, so as not to..."

Ji Xinxue backhanded the pouch containing the porcelain vase behind her back, fixed her black and white eyes on Concubine Zhong Shu, with grievances gradually appearing on her face, "Could it be that Auntie can't trust me?"

Concubine Zhong Shu was at a loss for words, and hurriedly comforted Ji Xinxue, "I don't believe you, I'm just afraid that the people in your palace are not careful enough. What if I just throw the purse somewhere? It's better to put it here."

"If you can't trust me, don't use me!" Ji Xinxue suddenly became angry, threw her purse at Concubine Zhong Shu, turned around and headed towards the gate.

Concubine Zhong Shu caught the purse in a hurry, hurriedly chased after Ji Xinxue, and said repeatedly, "Xue Nu, come back soon, my mother will not trust you."

Ji Xinxue, who had already reached the door, slowed down his steps expressionlessly. He had to take the pills away today.

When Concubine Zhong Shu caught up with Ji Xinxue and stretched out her hand to cover Ji Xinxue's hand on the door, just the right amount of grievance appeared on Ji Xinxue's face.He let Concubine Zhong Shu hold his hand, but deliberately turned his head away from Concubine Zhong Shu.

Concubine Zhong Shu coaxed Ji Xinxue in a gentle voice, and after Ji Xinxue promised that she would hand over the purse containing the medicine to Caishi for safekeeping and never let others know of the existence of the medicine, she returned the purse containing the porcelain bottle to Ji Xinxue personally sent Ji Xinxue out of Jianjia Palace.

After walking a long distance, Ji Xinxue looked back. Concubine Zhong Shu was still standing at the gate of Jianjia Palace with a dim oil lamp, staring at the direction he left.

As if time had never moved forward, it was still when he had just moved from Qixia Courtyard to Baimo Courtyard, Concubine Zhong Shu was still Lady Zhong in the backyard of Prince Jia's Mansion.

Ji Xinxue turned her head expressionlessly, her palms numb from the dull pain from the porcelain bottle in her purse.

After returning to the dormitory, Ji Xinxue had completely recovered her former composure. She first went to the study to sort out half of the household files, and then went back to the dormitory to wash and go to sleep.

When there was no more movement in the room, Ji Xinxue opened her sleepless eyes, took out the purse she was wearing today from under the pillow, and tears fell down the arc of her cheeks without warning.

When he closed his eyes, he saw the picture of the big tiger being poisoned. He held his purse almost all night without closing his eyes, but the next day he got up, washed, and went to Taixue to attend classes as if nothing had happened.

While waiting for Taixue to open, Yan Meng couldn't help but look at Ji Xinxue a few more times. She felt that Ji Xinxue had a strong sense of disobedience. After careful investigation, she felt that Ji Xinxue was no different from usual, and her expression gradually became entangled.

After Ji Xinxue figured out how often Yan Meng was watching him secretly, she suddenly turned her head to look at Yan Meng when Yan Meng was looking at him, just in time to catch Yan Meng's gaze, "What's the matter?"

Yan Meng shook her head subconsciously, and said honestly, "No."

Ji Xinxue nodded, and turned to look at the only way for people from outside the palace to come to Taixue. Yu Heng was always the first person to enter the palace.

The first time Yu Heng saw Ji Xinxue, he realized that Ji Xinxue was in a bad mood and was on the verge of exhaustion of patience.

He quickened his pace silently, and instantly left behind Li Jinhuan and others beside him.

Zhang Siyi noticed that Li Jinhuan and Lin Wei were also speeding up their pace, trying to catch up with Yu Heng, so she quickly trotted a few steps and grabbed them.

The king of the county is looking for the princess, what are you chasing after?

Ji Xinxue nodded to Yan Meng, and said softly, "Yu Heng and I are leaving first, don't wait for us for lunch."

Before the words were finished, Ji Xinxue had already found a direction at random and left first.

Yu Heng walked over half a step too late, passed Yan Meng, caught up with Ji Xinxue, and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Are you in a bad mood?"

Ji Xinxue raised the corners of her mouth, but the smile didn't reach her eyes, "Okay, very happy."

Yu Heng understood in seconds.

I'm in a terrible mood, but I don't want anyone to know.

He glanced at the direction Ji Xinxue was walking forward, took Ji Xinxue's wrist and turned a corner, and went to the place where Dian Ke was taught.

The lectures by Dianke are basically the scenes where the officials of Honglu Temple reproduced the scenes of foreign races coming to Chang'an in the Qianyuan Dynasty or the Jianxing Dynasty, so the teaching venue is very large.

There are not a few students in Taixue who choose to major in Dianke. He and Ji Xinxue hide behind and talk in a low voice, which will neither affect the teacher in class nor the people who are listening to the class.

Ji Xinxue obediently followed Yu Heng's force on his wrist to change direction, not caring where Yu Heng took him, all her thoughts were on the new purse hanging on her waist.

Seeing that Ji Xinxue was unwilling to speak, Yu Heng didn't ask any questions, so he took Ji Xinxue to the palace where Dianke was teaching, and found a place closest to the corner, quietly guarding Ji Xinxue's side.

He didn't know how long the demonstration ahead that Yu Heng hadn't put in his mind, he suddenly felt a heavy weight on his shoulders, Yu Heng looked sideways, and saw Ji Xinxue's dark head just in time.

Fortunately, Ji Xinxue's bun today is simple, with only two golden hairpins on her head, so she didn't wake up because of her hair being pulled.

Yu Heng was afraid that Ji Xinxue would not sleep well, so he raised his hand to remove the golden hairpin from Ji Xinxue's head.

When taking out the second golden hairpin, Ji Xinxue seemed to feel it, opened her sleepy eyes to look at Yu Heng, and said in a hoarse voice, "Yu Heng?"

Yu Heng paused, and still took the second golden hairpin from Ji Xinxue's head, placed it side by side with the golden hairpin already on his left hand, held it up to Ji Xinxue's eyes, and said softly, "You sleep Well, I will insert the hairpin back in advance when class is over."

Ji Xinxue didn't know whether she understood or not, she stared blankly at Yu Heng for a long while, then suddenly grabbed Yu Heng's wrist, stuffed the purse that had been wet by him into Yu Heng's hand, and said in a muffled voice 'Help me watch over it, don't give it to anyone. ' Then he leaned on Yu Heng's shoulder and closed his eyes again.

Yu Heng lowered his head and looked at the purse in his hand with scrutiny.

Three boxes of similar purse bags were sent to Fengdi last month, and he kept one box and sent two boxes to Ji Xinxue. Both the material and the embroiderer came from the fief, and had nothing to do with Jiangnan.

It seems to be a porcelain vase inside?

He has already noticed Ji Xinxue's emphasis on the purse through the slightly damp touch, and like Ji Xinxue, he always holds the purse in the palm of his hand, patiently guarding Ji Xinxue to wake up.

After about a stick of incense, Ji Xinxue opened her eyes, and the first thing she did was to find the purse that was supposed to be in her palm.

Yu Heng immediately spread out his hand holding the purse and put it on Ji Xinxue's palm, "Here."

Ji Xinxue tied her purse around her waist again, and sighed long.

After taking a nap, his sleepy head finally recovered, and his mood, which had been influenced by Concubine Zhong Shu since yesterday, eased up a bit.

Yu Heng turned around, and using the cover of his body, inserted the golden hairpin in his sleeve pocket into Ji Xinxue's hair again, "What's wrong?"

Ji Xinxue was silent for a while, then shook her head.

He really didn't know what to say about Concubine Zhong Shu's stupid thing.

Ji Xinxue asked without answering, "Are you going to Fengxiang Palace to see Aye later? I'll go too."

Yu Heng has no plans to go to Fengxiang Palace to see the new emperor.

Not only did Ji Xinxue want to hide from the new emperor until he finished copying the Hubu scroll, but Yu Heng also wanted to complete the punishment first before pleading guilty.

"I brought some things from the fief into the palace, and I want to show them to His Majesty." Yu Heng said the correct answer based on the tacit understanding with Ji Xinxue, and began to think about the things he brought into the palace.

A set of silver jewelry inlaid with sapphires, several boxes of the most fashionable silk flowers in Jiangnan, and... two boxes of rouge and various colors of gouache?

Yu Heng's face was slightly stiff, and he quietly put the landscape jade pendant around his waist into his sleeve pocket. It was also just sent from the fief, but it could only be packed into a wooden box.

I can only hope that when the new emperor appreciates the things he brought into the palace, he will stop when he sees the landscape jade pendant, and never continue to look at the wooden box below.

Otherwise... Yu Heng's face gradually became serious.

After the officials of Honglu Temple left one after another, Yu Heng and Ji Xinxue also left the place where Dianke was taught, and went straight to Fengxiang Palace.

It's a pity that the new emperor is meeting his courtiers and has no time to pay attention to them for the time being.

While waiting for the new emperor to be summoned, Ji Xinxue gradually lost her mind, and the conversation with Concubine Zhong Shu yesterday appeared in her mind again, and she suddenly remembered that Concubine Zhong Shu said that he would not be able to marry Yu Heng in the future.

Now he no longer needs his marriage with Yu Heng to increase his bargaining chips and reduce the possibility of being taken away as medicine.You should find an opportunity to formally terminate the verbal engagement with Yu Heng as soon as possible, so as not to damage Yu Heng's reputation and make it difficult for Yu Heng to discuss marriage.

Ji Xinxue turned her head and looked thoughtfully at Yu Heng who was drinking tea.

According to the thinking of this era, after the marriage contract is terminated, the people who have been engaged to each other basically have no contact with each other. He doesn't want to be like Yu Heng, he wants to be good brothers with Yu Heng for life.

I hope to find a suitable opportunity as soon as possible to tell Yu Heng his real gender.

As long as Yu Heng knows that they are all men, he won't alienate him because he wants to avoid suspicion.

As for the matter of concealing the real gender from Yu Heng.

Ji Xinxue believes that Yu Heng can understand his unspeakable difficulties, and is also prepared for the consequences that Yu Heng can't immediately accept his 'female to male' and will have trouble with him.

It was precisely because of this that he didn't tell Yu Heng his real gender immediately after the death of the first emperor.

The new emperor's throne has not yet been fully secured.There are alien races everywhere ready to move, the southern Taoist government does not respond to the Chang'an decree, and the Jiang family and the Cui family are violating the yin and yang, and they are always trying to divide the imperial power from the new emperor.

Ji Xinxue really didn't dare to bet that someone would see the big picture from the difference between him and Yu Heng, and have doubts about his gender, so she always planned to tell Yu Heng his real gender, but she never put her thoughts into practice. action.

Sensing the gaze on her body, Yu Heng looked at Ji Xinxue questioningly.

Ji Xinxue raised the corner of her mouth, "When Aye allows me to inspect the fief in the future, will you accompany me?"

He can tell Yu Heng his real gender in the fief, let Yu Heng beat and scold him, and coax Yu Heng to go back to Chang'an.

Under Ji Xinxue's expectant gaze, Yu Heng slowed down his breathing nervously, and solemnly replied, "Okay."

No matter where Ah Xue goes, he is willing to accompany Ah Xue.

He made up his mind to tell Yu Heng the real gender when he went to inspect the fief, so that Ji Xinxue could let go of the things that had always been on his mind.

The nerves that had been tense from last night to now also relaxed, and he even felt a strong drowsiness again, and his mind completely shifted from Concubine Zhong Shu to Yu Heng.

If the new emperor's throne is still insecure, only Yu Heng can tell the secret of his gender.

I hope that Yu Heng will not be in a hurry to get married, otherwise he is worried that girls of the right age will not be able to accept that Yu Heng still has frequent contacts with his "ex-fiancée", which will make Yu Heng unable to marry a wife who is well-matched.

Maybe Aye can recognize Yu Heng as his adopted son?

A brother-sister relationship can always be reassuring.

Ji Xinxue fell into a deep sleep amidst all kinds of thoughts, but she never let go of her purse.

Yu Heng asked the palace servants to bring a cloak, walked to Ji Xinxue lightly, first took off the gold hairpin from Ji Xinxue's bun, took the cloak and slowly put it on Ji Xinxue's shoulders, and then put it on Ji Xinxue's shoulder at a distance Xinxue took a seat at the nearest location.

He stared quietly at the wooden box for the new emperor to enjoy, when he suddenly heard Ji Xinxue calling his name.

"Huh?" Yu Heng turned his head immediately but saw that Ji Xinxue still had her eyes tightly closed, as if she was talking in her sleep.

The beating sound in Yu Heng's chest suddenly became intense, he held his breath, and leaned his ear close to Ji Xinxue's mouth, wondering what he looked like in Ji Xinxue's dream.

After waiting for a long time, Ji Xinxue frowned and said the next sentence.

"If you can't get married, ignore me."

Yu Heng was confused, he wanted to wait a little longer, but he was so suffocated that his chest almost exploded, but he had to move away from Ji Xinxue immediately and gasped for breath.

After the breath gradually recovered, Yu Heng looked at Ji Xinxue with a faint smile in his eyes.

Daydreams are really not accurate.

He thought day and night and waited to get married with A Xue, how could he be willing to ignore A Xue after getting married?

Ji Xinxue slept much more soundly than when she was in Taixue.

Until the new emperor came here to find Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng in person after seeing the courtiers, Ji Xinxue was still sleeping soundly on the table, showing no sign of waking up.

The new emperor who strode into the door helped Yu Heng who was saluting to him, walked straight to Ji Xinxue's side, stared down at Ji Xinxue's side face for a while, "Did he rest well yesterday?"

Except for Ji Mingtong, no one else has the habit of sleeping during the day, unless they stayed up late the day before to read a script.

Qingyun in the corner immediately replied, "Your Majesty, the princess washed and slept normally yesterday, and didn't stay up late."

Xindi raised half of his eyebrows.

He didn't think Qingyun had the guts to hide him for Ji Xinxue, since he didn't stay up all night, then he had something on his mind, "Where did Xiao Wu go yesterday?"

The person who answered was still Qingyun, "After school yesterday, the princess first went to Princess Baoding's palace. She originally planned to share dinner with Princess Baoding, but the concubine Shu sent someone to look for the princess. Go to Concubine Shu's palace, have dinner with Concubine Shu, and then talk to Concubine Shu before returning to the bedroom."

"Heh." The new emperor suddenly sneered, "It's Zhong Su again?"

Qingyun bowed his head deeply, not daring to answer easily.

Hesitation flashed in Yu Heng's eyes, and he also lowered his head and pretended that he didn't exist.

When Qingyun mentioned Concubine Zhong Shu, he should avoid suspicion, but he really wanted to know why Ji Xinxue was so abnormal today.

The new emperor glanced at the red gold pearl crown on Yu Heng's head, not minding Yu Heng's presence, raised his hand without hesitation to put Ji Xinxue's head, which was still sleeping soundly, and rubbed it ruthlessly.

No matter how sleepy you are, you can't sleep during the day, and you can't sleep at night, and you will continue to be sleepy tomorrow.

"Feng Lang! I'm going to be angry!" Ji Xinxue, who was being kneaded as dough, quickly responded, because she was awake but not fully awake, so it was taken for granted that the person who was rubbing his head was by his side before going to bed Yu Heng.

Before Ji Xinxue finished speaking, Yu Heng felt the terrifying gaze from the new emperor. He subconsciously defended himself, "I have never treated A Xue so rudely."

The new emperor gave a cold snort, and his hands became even more rude, directly rubbing Ji Xinxue's head into a bird's nest shape.

Ji Xinxue couldn't bear it anymore, grabbed Xindi's wrist, raised her head angrily, "Feng Lang, you..."

The new emperor said to Ji Xinxue with a half-smile, "It's not Yu Heng, you are disappointed?"

Ji Xinxue quickly let go of Xindi's wrist, and forced a smile, "No."

It's not a matter of being disappointed or not, it's that it's completely unexpected that Xindi would be so naive.

But Ji Xinxue didn't have the guts to tell the truth, for a while, she didn't know what else to say except the weak word 'no'.

Xindi sat on the seat vacated after Ji Xinxue stood up, and when he looked at Ji Xinxue carefully, his eyes stayed on the crumpled purse on Ji Xinxue's waist for a while, "What are you looking for me for? Feed the tiger ?”

After Ji Xinxue woke up, she wanted to make sure if the purse was still with her. When she was touching the purse, she heard Xindi's words, which made Ji Xinxue's face turn green, "Aye!"

"Huh?" The new emperor looked at Ji Xinxue with surprise.

Annoyed into anger?

He turned to look at Yu Heng who was standing not far away with his head down, "Do you have something to show me?"

Yu Heng paused slightly, and walked towards the place where the wooden box was placed with particularly heavy steps. Just after taking two steps, he heard the new emperor say, "Jing Zhe, bring the things for Feng Lang."

Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Jing Zhe was striding towards the place where the wooden boxes were placed. Yu Heng seemed to have opened up the two veins of Ren and Du in an instant. Like a gust of wind, he blew to the table where the wooden boxes were placed, picked up all the wooden boxes and walked towards the new emperor. During the period, he looked at the back of Ji Xinxue's head several times, trying to wink at Ji Xinxue.

However, Ji Xinxue was sulking because of Xindi's "feed the tiger" just now, so she didn't notice Yu Heng at all.

No matter how slowly Yu Heng walked, he would still walk in front of the new emperor.

The new emperor had a panoramic view of Yu Heng's tense face, and couldn't hide his smile, "Give me the bottom wooden box first, I think this box is pleasing to the eye."

Yu Heng froze in place immediately, looking a little pitiful.

Through Ji Xinxue's reaction, he realized that Ji Xinxue wanted to come to Fengxiang Palace but didn't want others to know that he wanted to come to Fengxiang Palace.

That's why Yu Heng said that the things brought into the palace specially for Ji Xinxue were for the new emperor to enjoy, and it was logical to bring Ji Xinxue to greet the new emperor.

Yu Heng originally thought that Ji Xinxue was going to discuss business with the new emperor when he came to Fengxiang Palace.

Things that can make Ji Xinxue so cautious are definitely not small things. After the new emperor is absorbed by Ji Xinxue, he will forget why he and Ji Xinxue came to Fengxiang Palace.

As long as the new emperor is not in front of the new emperor when he looks at the things he sent to Fengxiang Palace, at most he will copy six more files.

did not expect……

"Your Majesty." Yu Heng struggled to save himself, "The topmost box is a landscape jade pendant, which is a material that Nanzhao paid tribute to in the past. It was carved by Master Jiangnan himself. You might as well enjoy the landscape jade pendant first."

If the new emperor has no strange hobbies that are unknown to outsiders, this landscape jade pendant should be the only object that the new emperor can enjoy.

"Well, show it to me." The new emperor stretched out his hand towards Yu Heng, and his eyes swept over the wooden box pressed at the bottom again.

Yu Heng breathed a sigh of relief calmly, and handed the wooden box containing the landscape jade pendant to the new emperor, racking his brains to recall how he praised the landscape jade pendant in the letter that was sent to him together with the landscape jade pendant. The emperor didn't pay attention, and frequently looked at Ji Xinxue who had never spoken.

Ji Xinxue received Yu Heng's gaze, but he also had ghosts in his heart.

Xindi's unintentional 'feed the tiger' just now reminded him that he was just a little bit close, and he would personally hand over the medicine carefully prepared for Xindi by the Jiang family and Princess Dekang.

This made Ji Xinxue feel as if he had done something wrong, and he couldn't summon up the courage to talk to Xindi, let alone how to tell Xindi about the porcelain bottle and pills in his purse.

Poor Yu Heng has always heard people introduce what kind of jade pendant is, and whoever carved it, but now he has to rack his brains to search for words, dry mouth and praise the landscape jade pendant in the hands of the new emperor, for fear that the new emperor The emperor lost interest in the landscape jade pendant and wanted to see the wooden box below.

As the saying goes, what to be afraid of, when Yu Heng gradually ran out of words, the new emperor tied the landscape jade pendant around his waist very much to save face, and said with a smile, "Okay, let's look at other things.

Yu Heng's pretense of calmness was completely broken, and he stared blankly at the remaining wooden boxes.The new emperor laughed out loud at Yu Heng's dull expression, and picked up a wooden box and opened it.

It is a silk flower that looks like a peach blossom. The petals change gradually from pink to pink. The stamens are amber with the size of rice grains and red coral of the same size. No matter the material or the degree of resemblance to real flowers, it can be called a silk flower. The top grade.

Even the craftsmen in the palace may not be able to make such a fine product, it is indeed a rare object worth admiring.

But the new emperor couldn't figure out why this kind of thing would be given to him by the juniors.

Yu Heng didn't dare to look at Xindi's completely stiff smile, and winked at Ji Xinxue again.

Ji Xinxue had better say something now, the more wooden boxes Xindi opened, the more unpredictable his mood would be, and he might leave at any time.

It's a pity that Ji Xinxue was immersed in her thoughts and didn't receive Yu Heng's gaze.

The new emperor gave Yu Heng a meaningful look, closed the wooden box containing silk flowers and put it aside, then picked up another wooden box and opened it.

Very good, this time it is not a silk flower, but a Huasheng studded with pearls.

The new emperor held Huasheng in his hand with great interest, and said slowly, "Give me a treat?"

Yu Heng lowered his head, refusing to say anything.

Ji Xinxue finally recovered from the sudden voice in the silence, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Xindi carefully admiring the small but elegant Huasheng, and she was immediately shocked to the spot.

He was stunned for a while, then instinctively bent his legs under the cover of the skirt, and after constantly changing the angle, he finally met the wrong position at a certain moment, and saw that Hua Sheng seemed to be wearing it on the head of the new emperor.

Xindi seemed to sense something was wrong, and suddenly raised his eyelids to look at Ji Xinxue.

Ji Xinxue, who was doing something bad, lost her balance and fell to the ground. At this moment, the two most bad things happened at the same time. The former undoubtedly had the upper hand, and tears fell down her eyes uncontrollably.

Ji Xinxue pushed away Yu Heng who had come to help him, and rudely wiped her tears and threw herself at Xindi's leg, hugging Xindi's calf tightly and weeping.

He didn't mean to exchange tears for the new emperor's soft heart, and begged the new emperor to deal with Concubine Zhong Shu lightly.

As long as he thought of the possible consequences if Concubine Zhong Shu hadn't acted stupidly and followed Princess Dekang's orders, he couldn't bear the pain in his heart.

Ever since Ji Xinxue started to cry, the palace people in the house have retreated one after another, leaving only Song Nian and Jing Zhe.Yu Heng stood on the spot facing the gaze of the new emperor, refusing to move half a step.

Fortunately, the new emperor only took a few glances at Yu Heng, and didn't intend to drive Yu Heng out.

He put Pearl Huasheng aside, bent down and wiped Ji Xinxue's tears with his sleeve, and said with a sneer, "Looking at your worthless appearance, what big mistake did you make?"

Ji Xinxue hiccupped and calmed down under the ridicule of the new emperor. He looked at Yu Heng with red eyes, and said in a hoarse voice, "Feng Lang, you go out first, I have something to say to Aye."

Mrs. Zhong's stupidity is minor, but the conspiracy of Empress Dowager Jiang and Princess Dehui is the major one.

Even Ji Minyan and Ji Jingyu may not know what he will say to the new emperor later, and it is best for Yu Heng not to know either.

The less you know about these things, the more you can avoid being involved.

Yu Heng nodded, no longer the stubbornness he had when facing the new emperor. After silently saluting the new emperor, he turned and left immediately.

After the door was closed again, Ji Xinxue held up the unrecognizable purse in front of the new emperor, and told the new emperor everything about Princess Dekang from his conversation with Concubine Zhong Shu yesterday.

Including how Concubine Zhong Shu was persuaded by Princess Dekang, and the porcelain bottle in the purse contained two half pills, and the missing two half pills had already been taken by Concubine Zhong Shu.

In the end, Ji Xinxue lay on the new emperor's lap, crying and telling how Princess Dekang taught Concubine Zhong Shu to poison the new emperor.

He didn't take the initiative to say why Concubine Zhong Shu let him know the existence of the medicine. If the new emperor asked him, he would never hide anything.

The new emperor combed Ji Xinxue's hair from the root to the end with his hands, and gradually smoothed Ji Xinxue's messy hair. His eyes flickered and turned into sarcasm, but his tone was mostly helpless, "You again?" You did nothing wrong, why are you crying?"

Ji Xinxue shook her head, tears streaming down her face even more.

If it weren't for him, Concubine Zhong Shu would not be so easily bewitched by Princess Dekang.

The new emperor casually put the purse that Ji Xinxue stuffed into his hand on the narrow table, and was not in a hurry to explore the pill that would make Ji Xinxue never have younger siblings, and continued to coax Ji Xinxue, "Don't worry, I won't give up because of this." This matter has touched Zhong's concubine, at most, she will be confined in the Jianjia Palace like she was in the palace. How about taking a girl from the Zhong family to accompany her?"

Ji Xinxue was just crying silently at first, but after listening to the new emperor's words, she suddenly turned into a low whimper, her hatred for the Jiang family and Princess Dekang soared in her heart, and even a trace of hatred for Concubine Zhong Shu, who had always been guilty of guilt.

These people almost made him lose face in front of Aye again.

The helplessness on Xindi's face was even worse, and he said in a long voice, "What do you want?"

"I...I'm going to smash this medicine on the faces of Princess Dekang and Empress Dowager Jiang!" Ji Xinxue gritted her teeth.

He has no face to plead for Concubine Zhong Shu, no matter how the new emperor punishes Concubine Zhong Shu, Concubine Zhong Shu deserves what she deserves, but he hates Empress Dowager Jiang and Princess Dekang even more.

Without these two people, with Concubine Zhong Shu's courage and brains, she would never have the outrageous idea of ​​drugging the emperor in this life.

The new emperor was amused by Ji Xinxue's unprecedented ferocious appearance, and gently removed the wet hair sticking to Ji Xinxue's forehead, "Okay, I will satisfy you a year ago, don't cry."

Ji Xinxue shook her head frantically, the Jiang family has the nickname Jiang Banchao, how could it be easily shaken?

He raised his head from Xindi's lap, his eyebrows and eyes were serious, "Don't be impulsive."

The new emperor glanced sideways, pulled out the muslin that had been placed under Pearl Huasheng, wiped Ji Xinxue's face, and explained in a friendly voice, "I'm not impulsive, they are impulsive."

Seeing that Ji Xinxue was attracted by his words and finally stopped shedding tears, the new emperor showed a satisfied smile, and told Ji Xinxue about the involvement of the female officials and eunuchs who were being investigated by the Jinwu Guard with the Jiang family.

I've never seen Xiao Wu cry before, and I didn't expect that crying would be scarier than Xiao Si's. He could hardly make a sound, but his body was shaking uncontrollably, which made people worry that he would faint due to over-excitement at any time.

Ji Xinxue followed Xindi's guidance to think.

The Jiang family thought that they were identified by Mo Yao as the chief culprit for poisoning the late emperor, and then King Li almost broke with the Jiang family because of a concubine.

Yesterday, Jiang's family and Li Wang were still a warm family.

Today, the Jiang family not only sent people to search out all the gifts that King Li had sent to the Jiang family, but threw them in a mess in front of the gate of King Li's mansion, and arranged for people to shout outside King Li's mansion to ask King Li to hand over Jiang Ruren's dowry .Empress Dowager Jiang even personally issued a decree calling Li Wang unfilial, and did not allow Li Wang to call her A Niang again.

Ji Xinxue didn't think that the Jiang family had realized that she might be doomed, so they broke up with King Li in advance, so as not to hurt King Li's good intentions.

Under the suggestion of the new emperor, he ignorantly made a bold guess, "The Jiang family is going to let King Li take the blame?"

That's why he had to kick King Li away in advance, so as not to be implicated in the future.

The new emperor showed a satisfied smile that can be taught by a child.

"How to recite?" Ji Xinxue felt that the development of the matter was too arbitrary, which made people completely confused.

Yesterday when Ji Jingrou mentioned to him the quarrel between Kang's concubine and Jiang Ruren in Prince Li's mansion, he thought it was a real house fight.

After only one night, Zhai Dou was linked to the event of poisoning the late emperor.

The new emperor looked at Ji Xinxue reproachfully, and disapproved of Ji Xinxue's behavior of only asking but not thinking, and only paid attention to Ji Xinxue because Ji Xinxue had just cried.

"The Jiang family has produced some evidence to prove that the eunuchs have always been loyal to King Li, and the female officer and the side branches of the Jiang family who have been arrested and taken to the Jinwuwei Yamen also obeyed King Li's orders."

Ji Xinxue felt that his brain was not enough, and it took him a long time to figure out the logic.

Mo Yao just suspected that the Jiang family was the chief culprit for poisoning the late emperor. When the Jiang family realized this, they first tried to test Li Wang, and immediately arranged a conclusive evidence package for Li Wang when Li Wang's performance was unqualified.

If there were no accidents, Mo Yao would follow the Jiang family's arrangement to investigate all the way down, and finally found that King Li was the chief culprit who poisoned Emperor Yanguang, and the Jiang family was innocent and only wronged.

In order to achieve the best whitewashing effect, the Jiang family may even perform a righteous extermination of relatives and provide key evidence for finalizing the case.

There is nothing pitiful about King Li, the hands of the Jiang family
