"I don't know," Mrs. Zhiqi said softly. She always behaved like this. She just described the things she saw with her own eyes in a calm manner, and would not make rash guesses. All doubts were left to others to judge.
Because every word she says must be taken responsibly, it is not only related to her but also to the person she is talking about. In Mrs. Zhiqi’s view, it is not allowed to make rash conclusions about people. The slightest mistake will bring trouble to others.
Come disaster.
"You don't know? Then why are you telling your mother so much?" Ximenche walked into the room. He had already heard the conversation between Mrs. Zhiqi and Jiang Ziyin, and knew about Lin Xiner's situation in Prince Xuan's Mansion.
Lin Xiner's injury was not serious, which made him slightly relieved, but when he heard that Lin Xiner was driven to a side hospital, he became worried. Zhiqi did not say the reason why Lin Xiner was kicked out of Plum Blossom Court, and he did not
Knowing what Lin Xiner's situation was at this time, I didn't know how to tell the emperor to show mercy to Lin Xiner.
"Zhiqi is just telling me what she knows. Any judgment is your own business. Chen Rufeng is yours. His death is your loss. If others don't care, how can you not care? Some things can't be
You always rely on your uncle to help you, but you have to solve it yourself." Jiang Ziyin said.
"With any judgment, I can't relate the matter to Lin Xiner. What could Lin Xiner, a woman with uncomfortable legs and feet, do? If it weren't for this prince, she would have been beaten to death just like Shui Qing."
Jiang Ziyin originally thought that Ximenche's annoyance towards Zhiqi was because she answered "I don't know", but it turned out that was not the case. What Ximenche really blamed Zhiqi was because her words linked people to the deaths of Lin Xiner and Chen Rufeng.
,Is Ximenche protecting Lin Xiner?
Jiang Ziyin was surprised, looking at Ximenche as if he didn't recognize her son, "What did you say? Why did Lin Xiner's beating involve you again?"
Ximenche knew that he had made a mistake and revealed his secret, but he also wanted to tell his mother that he had nothing to hide. Zhiqi was her mother's son, so she naturally knew how to speak appropriately, so he simply told the truth, "I won't hide anything from my mother, Lin
The reason why Xin'er withstood the 30-pound battle was because I asked Brother Sanhuang for his knee pads and padded them for Lin Xin'er. With the protection, she endured the fight better."
"What did you say?" Jiang Ziyin's expression changed after hearing this. This was another violation of the imperial edict. She looked at her son dumbfounded. If he hadn't said it himself, she would not have believed that it was Ximen Che who saved Lin Xiner.
, the person who just humiliated Lin Xiner not long ago.
"It's nothing." Ximenche said, "I don't think the queen mother and Mrs. Zhiqi will tell anyone, right?"
Zhiqi also knew that this matter was not trivial. Seeing Ximenche nodding lightly, he felt the same surprise as Jiang Ziyin.
"Why?" Jiang Ziyin couldn't figure it out. Ximenche's desperate refusal to marry was very consistent with his behavior, but then he suddenly turned around to rescue Lin Xiner. What he did was incredible!
"I just don't think Lin Xiner can die so cheaply." Ximenche's mind turned around and he didn't say that he fell in love with Lin Xiner. As a prince, he also had his arrogance and couldn't
Letting people know that he regrets it, no matter how good Lin Xiner is in his eyes, in the eyes of outsiders, it is an act of nostalgia and turning back.
Ximenche believed that refusing to marry could show his domineering status as the prince, but being nostalgic for the prince would damage the image of the prince. No matter how bad he was, he still knew how to maintain the image of a prince. Besides, how could he let the emperor know?
, Lin Xiner was obviously thrown to the emperor's uncle by his own hands, but now he has inappropriate thoughts about her?
Hearing Ximenche's answer, Jiang Ziyin breathed a sigh of relief and said that her son would not do anything outrageous. Besides, the woman was a cripple who was abandoned by him. Could it still make the prince feel regretful?
It turned out that he still held a grudge against Lin Xiner and wanted to cause her more suffering.
Jiang Ziyin shook her head gently. She really didn't know when her son would become a truly upright person and no longer care about trivial things.
"From this point of view, there is nothing suspicious about Chen Rufeng's death. He wanted to assassinate Lin Xiner in the palace, but was found to be acting erratically. Knowing that he was in danger at the end of the year, he couldn't think of anything and hanged himself." Jiang Ziyin thought again.
Regarding Chen Rufeng, I always felt sorry for his death. I wonder if the newly appointed minister will still be of the same mind as the prince?
"If you dare to do something small in front of your father, there is no guarantee that you will not do anything to your son in the future. Even if such a person is beneficial to the prince's palace now, he cannot be used." Ximen Che said, as long as he has the emperor's uncle by his side, he can be sure of victory.
, Chen Rufeng died, Lin Xiner had one less enemy.
Jiang Ziyin nodded. Ximen Che said this like a prince, with the decisiveness of executing an important matter. If she knew that Ximen Che was thinking from Lin Xiner's side, and was still relying on comparing him to
The emperor's uncle, who is not much older, will definitely be so angry that he can't speak.
"Zhiqi, I know that you are honest, so I would like to tell you again that you only need to be fully aware of what the prince said today." Jiang Ziyin emphasized to Zhiqi again.
"Yes, I understand." Mrs. Zhiqi nodded and replied. Although she was the wife of Prince Xuan, she always called herself a slave in front of the queen and the prince. She still followed the rules of a palace maid and fulfilled her duties.
This kind of Zhi Qi is even more popular with the Queen. If it weren't for Lin Xiner's incident, Jiang Ziyin would have thought of asking the Emperor to designate Zhi Qi as Princess Xuan, so that her relationship with Prince Xuan's Palace would be closer. Although Ximen Jing
She raised Xuan by herself, and she also knew that Ximen Jingxuan was grateful to her, but in this world, who doesn't want to get closer to Prince Xuan?
"It's such a pity that Chen Rufeng died like this." In the unknown mansion in the capital, there was still the tall man in blue clothes, with his back to the gate, sitting in the courtyard, sipping tea and playing with the bird in his hand.
The teacup filled with half a cup of tea said in a playful tone.
"It's strange that when something happened in the palace, the prince didn't come forward to defend Chen Rufeng. According to the prince's temperament, he shouldn't have ignored Chen Rufeng, and even seemed to add insult to injury with his words." Qingqing, who was standing behind the man, said with some doubts.
.
"You don't know the reason for this. The prince's attitude towards Lin Xiner has completely changed. His words are all based on Lin Xiner." The man's lips curved.
"Is that so?" Qingwu was a little surprised.
"I didn't expect that the appearance of Lin Xiner would make things in the palace more and more interesting." The man seemed to be commenting on a play, and sipped the tea with interest.
