Baihu looked at Suzaku, who was now scared, and was a little anxious. After all, the four of them grew up together, and they also grew up with the prince. Over the years, apart from the prince, among the four of them, they were the most powerful.
He was someone who was close and trusted. How could he watch Suzaku being punished?
"While the prince hasn't come back yet, let's go and beg the princess together. As long as the princess doesn't tell, the prince will definitely not know about it. In this way, you will be spared a punishment."
"But the princess was so powerful just now! I'm worried that the princess won't be willing to protect me."
Bai Hu glared at her. Among the four, she was the youngest. She usually doted on her the most and gave in to her. But this time, she actually let her have her own way and caused such a big trouble!
"Let's go! Even if you don't agree, you still have to ask. Do you want to go to the secret hall?"
When Suzaku heard the word "secret hall", he couldn't help but shudder. That was definitely not a place for people. Last time he stayed there for three days, he almost crawled out! This time, even if he had to kneel down to the princess,
After three days and three nights, she doesn't want to go to the secret hall anymore.
The two of them had just entered Shuiyue Xiaozhu. Unfortunately, as soon as they started talking, the prince came back.
When they saw that the prince was back, the two of them did not dare to talk anymore. However, the prince and the princess did not say that they were leaving. They just happened to be here to listen, just in case the princess had the chance to talk.
She might as well admit her mistake quickly and try to reduce the prince's punishment on her as much as possible.
"Let someone put lunch here. I am a little tired today and don't want to walk back and forth. Baihu, can you tell me what news you received today?"
Bai Hu was shocked. To be able to make the prince say the word "tired" was probably not a good thing!
"Going back to your lord, the Wuchang Marquis is now very peaceful. The entire Leng family behind it held a small clan meeting in the Wuchang Marquis last night. The intention is already very clear that they will give up on the eldest prince."
"Then does the queen know the news now?"
"My lord, you probably don't know yet. Because no one from the Leng family has entered the palace so far."
"Well, it's just a matter of time. Now the trend in the palace has completely changed. In the harem, the queen has been completely defeated. She has lost power, and now she has lost the support of her mother-in-law. I don't think her life will be better.
It will only become more and more sad." Su Xiyue shook her head.
"Why do you sound a little emotional again?" King Rui looked at her, confused.
"As soon as you enter the waiting door, it is as deep as the sea, and a lifetime of love turns to quicksand. The high-walled inner courtyard is full of coldness and ruthlessness. I really can't understand why there are so many women in the world vying to get in there.
?Don’t they know what they are going to face?”
Su Xiyue frowned slightly, "Intrigues, overt and covert attacks, is this what they want? A girl as beautiful as a flower, some even cannot survive a year or a month in the palace, so they send her away
I really don’t understand why they are still so persistent? Do you really believe that they must be the ones standing at the top?”
Prince Rui didn't understand why Su Xiyue suddenly felt so much emotion today, and her voice sounded very sad.
His big hand covered her jade-white little hand, "Are you in a bad mood today?"
Su Xiyue didn't have any special reaction, but the prince's words frightened Suzaku beside her! She carefully glanced in the direction of the princess, hoping that she would never say anything detrimental to her.
"It's nothing. I just think of some past events and feel a little sad. Just like Leng Yumei, the good daughter-in-law of the Marquis, but she wanted to marry the prince. What happened? Now she has no children, and she is still
The imperial doctor diagnosed that she would never have any children for the rest of her life. How cruel must this be for a woman?"
"Okay, let's not mention her anymore. Let's talk about something happy, okay?"
Su Xiyue smiled lightly, "Didn't you say you were tired? You will have lunch later, so you can lie down for a while. I'm fine. I'll be fine by myself for a while."
His ordinary words made King Rui frown, "What do you mean by being alone for a while? I have finally finished handling the affairs in the court. Do you think you dislike me?"
After Su Xiyue was stunned for a while, she finally understood and said with a chuckle, "What! Xiaolu, go and see if lunch is ready?"
"Yes, miss."
"Zhuque, go check and find out who has been to the post house today, and who Miss Wang has seen today, whose gifts she has received, who she has given gifts to, etc. In short,
You have investigated everything related to her, and then reported it to me."
When Zhuque heard her mention the word "Miss Wang", there was a buzz in her head! However, fortunately, she did not mention herself, nor did she mention that she wanted to accept her as a concubine, otherwise, she was afraid that she would
Crap.
"Yes, Your Highness." Finally, he reacted quickly. After giving Bai Hu a quick look, Suzaku left on the spot.
Bai Hu also wiped a sweat from the bottom of his heart. Fortunately! Fortunately, the princess didn't care about her, otherwise, ten Suzakus wouldn't be able to escape now!
Even so, Bai Hu did not dare to relax, for fear that once Suzaku left, the princess would accuse her in front of the prince again!
"Mingxi, I have something to discuss with you. Can you please stop being angry until I finish talking?"
After glancing at the cautious Su Xiyue, King Rui nodded, "You tell me, I'll listen."
"Your Majesty, has there been any result regarding Miss Wang?"
"Um."
"Mingxi, no matter what the results of the Qintian Supervisor's calculations are, what I want to say is that Miss Wang cannot be the destined daughter you are looking for. So, don't kill her."
Bai Hu's heart really trembled! When she heard her talking about Miss Wang, she thought that the princess was about to push Suzaku out. Who knew that there was such content behind? But, how could she think that Miss Wang
No?
"Are you trying to save her life, or are you trying to contain Concubine Hui?"
Su Xiyue shook her head, "No! She is indeed not the person you are looking for. In fact, you can probably guess the reason why there are such rumors among the nobles outside now, right?"
King Rui's face was slightly cold and his eyes darkened, "Don't tell me that you are the one behind all this?"
Su Xiyue smiled flatteringly, as if she had done something bad and was caught red-handed, "Well, in fact, this matter is not just my idea."
King Rui's voice was as cold as ice, "Who else is there?"
