Chapter 21 I am not satisfied with last night's performance
"It seems to be the residence of the ladies of the Pianyuan." Yan'er said in surprise.
"Ignore it." Lin Xiner didn't care.
"I'll go to the wedding hall to collect the dowry." Yan'er said.
As soon as Yan'er left, Lin Xiner stood up and came to the window, saying in a deep voice, "Come in."
Xingyao jumped in immediately.
"Did you also see Prince Xuan go out?" Lin Xiner asked. She had specifically warned them not to show up when Ximen Jingxuan was in the palace. Xingyao came to see her despite the warning, which meant that she knew about Ximen Jingxuan.
I just came here after leaving the palace.
"Well, I saw it from a distance, but I didn't dare to follow." Xingyao nodded and asked with some confusion, "Young Palace Master, is Prince Xuan's martial arts really that powerful?"
"His skill is far superior to mine. I can only compete with him by practicing Shuiyue Kung Fu." Lin Xiner nodded and replied, "It's a pity that Master is seriously ill now, so I have to come out early to deal with it, and so do you.
Be careful with everything."
"Then wouldn't it be dangerous for the Young Palace Master to stay alone in Prince Xuan's Mansion?"
"Not now. Yan'er is a truly ordinary girl with no evil intentions. She can easily get rid of the suspicions of those who are interested. This can also help me conceal my identity. So there is Yan'er in the open, so you should wait for me in the dark for the time being.
Just give the order." Lin Xiner said.
"Yes." Xingyao replied.
"First go and check in the capital about the contacts with people from the Yuehua Kingdom, and find out who is colluding with the Yuehua Kingdom, or whose subordinates are in control of the Yuehua Kingdom," Lin Xiner said.
"Yes." Xingyao accepted the order and left.
Lin Xiner stared out of the window, guessing the purpose of Ximen Jingxuan's early departure from the palace. What was the reason why he left in such a hurry?
"Miss, miss, you're so scared!" Yan'er ran back in a panic.
"What's wrong?" Lin Xiner turned around and looked at the panting Yan'er and asked.
Yan'er patted her chest, "Originally, I wanted to ask the housekeeper to help me move the lady's dowry, but the housekeeper hurried to the side yard. I heard that there was a female corpse lying in Mrs. Zhiqi's yard. The tragic scene just now
The scream was made by Mrs. Zhiqi."
"Let's go and take a look." Lin Xiner said. After such a big thing happened, it would be abnormal for her, a new princess, to act like she didn't care. What's more, as the mistress of the palace, she should also come forward.
Yan'er helped Lin Xin'er to Mrs. Zhiqi's yard. The housekeeper had already arrived with people. When he saw Lin Xiner coming, he ordered people to cover the body and said to Lin Xiner, "Princess, leave this to me."
I will handle it below, please avoid it.”
"Sure enough, what I said has come true. This happened as soon as I entered the house. Mrs. Zhiqi was already frightened. She can't tell what else will happen in the palace in the future."
The voice was not loud, but every word reached Lin Xiner's ears without revealing it.
Lin Xiner turned her head following the sound and saw a voluptuous-looking woman twisting her slender waist and playing with a strand of hair hanging on her chest. She met Lin Xiner's eyes and raised her chin deliberately.
"Mrs. Shui Qing? Accompany me to take a look." Lin Xiner seemed to have not heard what Mrs. Shui Qing said. She smiled slightly and greeted her.
As for the three wives of Ximen Jingxuan, it was explained in the information that Lin Xiner had obtained before. Mrs. Zhiqi is the queen's personal maid, specially given to Prince Xuan, she is beautiful, dignified, and gentle; Mrs. Shuiqing is Chen Shangshu.
His granddaughter is enchanting and beautiful, but she treats others harshly; Mrs. Mei is the beauty that Yuehua Kingdom dedicated to Ximen Jinglie as a princess. She is like a jade in the Xiao family and does not like to talk much.
Based on the comprehensive information, although no one introduced her, Lin Xiner immediately recognized Mrs. Shui Qing and understood the irony of her words.
Seeing Lin Xiner lifting her legs that were not very flexible and about to move forward after finishing speaking, the housekeeper was slightly stunned and quickly stopped her, "Princess, with her bloody appearance, it is better not to be seen."
"I am Princess Xuan. If something happens in Prince Xuan's palace, how can I ignore it?" Lin Xiner retorted.
"Miss, it's better not to read it." Yan'er gently tugged on Lin Xiner's clothes. She just brought the young lady to join in the fun as a princess, letting everyone know that today's palace is different from the past. There is already a princess.
But I didn’t expect that Lin Xiner insisted on seeing the dead body. This behavior was a bit excessive, right?
"When will you take the initiative in matters related to Prince Xuan's Mansion?" Ximen Jingxuan's voice suddenly sounded.
"See you, Your Majesty!" Everyone said with cupped hands.
"When the king is away, the housekeeper is in charge of everything in the palace. This is the rule of Prince Xuan's palace. No one can break it, including you." Ximen Jingxuan walked up to Lin Xiner and glanced at her lightly.
, as if she had never had any interaction with her, even if she had just provoked him and made him angry, there was no feeling of indifference and alienation.
"The prince seems to have forgotten that I am the concubine of Xuan, whom the prince personally promised to the emperor. The prince gallops on the battlefield and leads the troops to fight with military orders. He is not a villain who goes back on his word. Since he has the position of Princess Xuan, why can't he be the palace of Prince Xuan?
"Master?" Lin Xiner raised her head, greeted Ximen Jingxuan with a faint smile and asked.
"Yes, I recognize your identity, but how can you live up to this identity?" Ximen Jingxuan looked at Lin Xiner, who had changed her face again, and asked.
At this time, her makeup was completely different from last night. Her face was bare, without the rich charm, her eyes were also pure without a trace of seductive vulgarity, and she was not as weak as she had seen in the Grand Master's Mansion.
It seems a little more comfortable.
"My concubine first married into the prince's palace, how could I have done anything wrong to the prince?" Lin Xiner asked, could it be that Ximen Jingxuan dared to accuse "her" of drugging him in front of everyone?
"What do you think?" Ximen Jingxuan asked.
The interest of the people around them shifted away from the inexplicable appearance of the female corpse, and they all noticed the conversation between Prince Xuan and the princess. They were eager to gossip.
"I don't know what I did inappropriately," Lin Xiner said innocently.
The sheets that Yan'er deliberately showed off have been seen by others. There were no accidents on her wedding night with Prince Xuan. If Ximen Jingxuan didn't say anything about being drugged, would she admit it? Besides, she wasn't the one who drugged her.
.
As soon as Ximen Jingxuan's words came out, everyone present pricked up their ears.
Lin Xiner blinked her eyes and listened attentively.
"If you want to be a basically qualified Princess Xuan, you must first practice your kung fu. I am very dissatisfied with your performance last night." Ximen Jingxuan said every word.
The word "performance" in Ximen Jingxuan's mouth made Lin Xiner unconsciously think of what happened in the secret room, and a blush suddenly appeared on her cheeks. She couldn't hide it even if she wanted to, but there was only a flash of annoyance in her eyes.
