"My lord, the princess's reaction is too unusual, I'm worried..." Butler Lin said.
"You have been following me, and you still don't know how difficult it is to guess her thoughts?" Ximen Hao said.
He was deliberately waiting for Su Ranhua in the study at this time. But she had been staying in Moyaxuan. It was normal for her to eat and drink, but because she behaved like this after Xiaocui's death, it was really abnormal.
When Su Ranhua first returned to Beiwang Mansion from Butterfly Valley, he asked him for Xiao Cui, but at this time, he was very calm when faced with Xiao Cui's death.
When returning to the Northern Palace, Ximen Hao thought of many situations when he faced Su Ranhua and his conversations with her. He had even prepared someone to go to Butterfly Valley to collect Chu Hang's blood as an emergency, but nothing happened.
"I'm going to see her." Ximen Hao still couldn't sit still, got up and left the study, and came to Mo Yaxuan.
"My lord has been busy for many days, do you have time to come back today?" Seeing the portrait of Ximen Hao and Su Ran, he asked with a smile as if nothing had happened.
"Well, come back and take a look." Ximen Hao nodded numbly, feeling a little uncomfortable seeing Su Ran's paintings like this.
"Look at me?" Su Ranhua flashed his eyes and smiled jokingly.
"Where's Mo'er?" Ximen Hao walked to the table and sat down and asked. Mo Yaxuan, the big and generous Mo Yaxuan, was not even a girl beside Mo'er. She really had the airs of a princess.
"It's better for me to be alone, maid, I can't afford to keep her." Su Ranhua said, lowering her eyelids to hide the coldness that flashed in her eyes.
Ximen Hao knew that Su Ranhua still blamed him in his heart.
"If you really did your duty, no accident would have happened." Ximen Hao said. Although Xiaocui's death was due to his heavy hand, he could not forget the reason that made him angry. Su Ranhua and Ximen Hao
Yi colluded to sneak out of Beiwang Mansion and sneak into the palace, which shows that there is something wrong with her behavior.
Just because he hasn't asked, doesn't mean he will ignore it.
"If you want me to do my duty, I have to live in peace and not cause trouble." Su Ranhua said calmly. Even if Xiaocui was beaten because she left the house and did not return, the reason still came from Bai Yiyi. Xiaocui
Her death and her suffering will all be recorded on Bai Yiyi's head!
"If you recognize your identity as Princess Bei and don't collude with outsiders, you won't cause any trouble." When Ximen Hao saw what happened, Su Ranhua still had an attitude that had nothing to do with his harsh words, and he was furious again.
Staring at Su Ranhua, his tone was heavy and cold.
"It turns out that the prince is here to question me." Su Ranhua sneered, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a sip.
"Stay here in Mo Yaxuan, I don't want to be angry with you." Ximen Hao pressed his palm hard on the table and stood up. All the burning anger surged between his fingers and condensed in the palm of his hand. He tried his best to
restrained.
"It's almost Chinese New Year, what are the rules in the palace?" Just when Ximen Hao decided to leave, Su Ranhua's topic suddenly took a big turn, which surprised him.
"Similar to previous years, all the royal family and relatives gathered happily at the Showa Hall to watch the New Year's Eve." Ximen Hao said.
"Oh." Su Ranhua responded softly and continued drinking tea.
Ximen Hao walked to the door of the house, stopped and turned around, looking at the leisurely Su Ranhua, "I will take you into the palace."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, I'm really looking forward to celebrating the New Year in the palace for the first time!" Su Ranhua raised her lips and smiled, greeting Ximen Hao.
Ximen Hao stared at Su Ranhua. Although she looked happy and excited on the surface, this was not her character at all. In his eyes, Su Ranhua would not care about such vulgar things.
"Do you think I'm suddenly tacky?" Su Ranhua asked with a smile, as if Ximen Hao wasn't angry with her just now and smiled at him casually.
Seeing that Ximen Hao didn't answer, maybe he couldn't guess what he was thinking. Su Ranhua chuckled secretly and said, "So many unlucky things have happened, I want to have a good New Year and wash away the bad luck.
"
"Then make your body stronger. The cold in winter is very cold, so you must be careful." Ximen Hao said.
Seeing Ximen Hao disappearing as he opened and closed the door, Su Ranhua's eyes gradually darkened.
She could feel Ximen Hao's forbearance towards her, and he must have not wanted to touch her emotions and cause the poisonous nature of Jue Killer. Did he really care about her in his heart?
However, she had to give an explanation to Xiaocui and herself who had been wronged. Even if Ximen Hao had special feelings for Bai Yiyi and protected Bai Yiyi wholeheartedly, she would still attack Bai Yiyi and seek justice.
Su Ranhua could kill Bai Yiyi with one move, but it would be too easy for her to let her die quietly. Bai Yiyi was like Su Luocheng, which made Su Ranhua hate her to the core, so she wanted Bai Yiyi to
The violent death exposed her true face to the public, allowing her beloved Ximen Hao to see her clearly.
Therefore, Su Ranhua already had a plan in mind.
"Miss, what kind of person do you think she is?"
While listening to Yuxuan, Ru'er asked Bai Yiyi confusedly.
Xiao Cui had been buried for several days. Su Ranhua had never been to Wutong House once. As she said, she did not see Xiao Cui on her last journey. She seemed indifferent to Xiao Cui's death.
Bai Yiyi knew that the "she" in Ru'er's mouth was referring to Su Ranhua, so she smiled softly and said, "Ru'er, as you can see, she is such a cold-hearted person."
Although she couldn't understand Su Ranhua's thoughts, Xiao Cui's death did not affect Su Ranhua and caused an unexpected dispute between her and Ximen Hao. Bai Yiyi was a little disappointed by this, but she still took this opportunity to find a way out of this situation.
In front of his son, he tried to discredit Su Ran's paintings.
"Yes, Xiaocui is still her dowry girl!" Ru'er nodded, "She should have taken care of Xiaocui's funeral, but she left it to Liu'er."
"Did Liu'er say anything?" Bai Yiyi asked.
"Liu'er is also very prejudiced against her behavior, but the young lady knows that she is still living in Moyaxuan and is still Princess Bei. No one dares to say anything." Ru'er curled her lips dissatisfied and said, "Even
Mo'er also hid if he could."
"She is a smart person. She doesn't know that this will be detrimental to her. What kind of medicine is she selling in the gourd?" Bai Yiyi frowned in confusion.
"What kind of medicine can she sell? Xiao Cui was beaten to death on the order of the prince, and he was accidentally beaten to death. If she grabbed Xiao Cui and refused to let him go, she would be in trouble with the prince. For the sake of her position as princess, it is natural for her to remain silent."
Ru'er snorted coldly.
Su Ranhua could tell from Mo'er's lukewarm attitude toward her that the people in the palace were dissatisfied with her.
On the eve of the day when Xiao Cui was buried, Su Ranhua quietly left Mo Yaxuan and came to Wutong Residence. She did not go in because she was afraid of seeing Xiao Cui's bruised face after being beaten, and because she was afraid that she would not be able to control her angry mood at the moment.
He makes himself unable to control his actions, fearing that the consequences will be injurious to himself and result in nothing.
So, in the end, after standing outside Wutong Ju for a moment, Su Ranhua quietly returned to Mo Yaxuan.
