Ying Dongjun: "Well, you go."

Hua Mian bowed and then stepped down.

Xiao Jixiang kept staring at Hua Mian with a cold look. After she left, she asked Ying Dongjun: Princess, would she just keep it like this? Should I think of a way to make her disappear?

Ying Dongjun gave Xiao Jixiang a blank look: "I have told you so many times, don't try to make people disappear at any time! This person is left for me first, which is useful!"

Xiao Jixiang: What is the use?

Ying Dongjun picked up the tea and took a sip, and said casually: "She combed her hair better than you, brewed tea better than you, and was more obedient than you."

Xiao Jixiang was stunned when she heard this, and then hurriedly gestured: Let's kill her!

Xiao Jixiang was furious and turned his head and left.

Ying Dongjun chuckled and called him: "Come back! I'm joking with you. No matter how good she is, I don't like it. No matter how stupid you are, I am the one I trust!"

Xiao Jixiang paused and immediately came back happily.

Xiao Jixiang asked with great urgency: Am I the princess trusting the most?

Ying Dongjun smiled and looked at him without an answer.

Xiao Jixiang is unwilling to give up: Then am I the second person the princess trusts?

Ying Dongjun thought about it but still didn't say anything.

Xiao Jixiang wanted to ask again, but Ying Dongjun waved his hand and sighed: "Okay, do you still have to worry about the dead?"

Xiao Jixiang immediately calmed down.

Ying Dongjun held her forehead and looked out the window quietly. Her usual smile hung on the corner of her mouth, not knowing what she was thinking.

Xiao Jixiang looked at the princess and suddenly felt a little regretful. He shouldn't have asked, even if he was in the princess's heart, what's the matter?

...

On this day, in the major teahouses in the capital, the storyteller spoke a new book, the name of the book was "The Legend of Qionglou".

The story tells a lady from a noble family who was raised in the deep boudoir. She fell in love with Mr. Qingjun who came to her house to teach at first sight. The lady from a noble family was in love with her heart and waited outside the study every day to see the young man. In order to get in touch with her lover, the lady from a noble family tried all kinds of ways, such as meeting her by chance in the garden, giving snacks, deliberately going to borrow books from the young man, and then quietly putting the bookmark with her name into the book, expressing her feelings obscurely.

Unexpectedly, the young man was unhappy and was indifferent to the show of affection for the lady of the aristocratic family. After realizing the lady's intention, he took the initiative to resign from the home. The young man of the aristocratic family was anxious and stayed up late to write a letter, putting all his feelings into paper and pen to seek pity from his lover. Unfortunately, after the letter covered with the lady's tears was sent out, there was no movement, and the young man would never return.

After a young lady of the aristocratic family fell seriously ill, she followed the family's arrangements and married another person.

The listeners were scolding while listening, mostly scolding the teacher, saying that he had let down the beauty's hearts and was not a man, so he had some hidden illness.

Originally, this plot was not a happy ending, and everyone left behind the scenes. However, this story unexpectedly became popular in the capital. If there was no storyteller in a teahouse or restaurant, it would be considered that the business was not good.

Secretly, someone is telling that the lady of a noble family in this story is actually the current empress dowager. "Qionglou Zhuan" tells the story of the empress dowager when she was still in the boudoir, because the small building where the empress dowager lived was called "Qionglou". The letter to the teacher back then was not handed over to the teacher, but was secretly taken away, so the empress dowager's romantic history was passed on.

As for the teacher who is ignorant of the charm, everyone has speculations. The one who has been guessed the most is Lord Yu, the Minister of the Central Secretariat.

In Zhaohua Palace, Empress Xiao sat on the couch with a gloomy expression and heard Nianyu report rumors outside the palace to her.

Nianyu looked at the queen mother worriedly, "I need to go and investigate secretly, who is it..."

Empress Dowager Xiao suddenly swept the tea tray at hand to the ground, gritted her teeth in an angry voice, "Do you still need to check it? Li Changfu! What a Li Changfu!"

Nianyu also guessed that it must be Li Changfu.

In "The Legend of Qionglou", there are many things that are made up randomly, but there are some details that can match them. Plus that letter...

Empress Xiao looked at Nianyu and asked coldly: "That letter back then..."

Nianyu was so scared that his face turned pale and he hurriedly said, "As the Empress told me, I put it under the quilt! Logically, he should be able to see it!"

Empress Xiao: "Why did it fall into the hands of the Li family!"

Nianyu: "Will this... be..."

"No!" Empress Xiao seemed to have expected what Nianyu wanted to say, and interrupted without saying a word. "He would not accept it, he would just treat it as if he had not seen it, destroy the letter, and would never hand it over to others."

Nianyu: "Is it a member of the Xiao family..."

Empress Xiao closed her eyes, calmed down when she opened her eyes again, and said to Nianyu: "Go and check! I must know who was back then, and took the letter!"

I missed the fish: "Yes, I'll go now."

Empress Dowager Xiao glanced at her and said indifferently: "You go and receive the punishment yourself first, and then go and do the job."

Nianyu knew that the Queen Mother had been in love for many years and had tolerated her. She bit her lip, responded in a low voice, got up and walked out.

"Call Gu Feng over!" Empress Xiao ordered.

I paused, "Yes."

In the princess's mansion, Ying Dongjun asked Xiao Jixiang to set up a recliner by the pool, and she lay on the recliner to read books, reading very attentively.

After Huamian took a bowl of skin, she came over the pomegranate contained in the glass bowl. She gently placed the bowl on the table next to the princess.

The princess was still staring at the book, but her hand reached out, picked up a small silver spoon, scooped a spoonful of crystal clear pomegranate and put it in her mouth. Hua Mian quickly used a veil to pick up the seeds she spit out.

Xiao Jixiang glanced at Hua Mian, waved her hand and asked her to retreat.

Hua Mian obediently moved away and walked aside to feed the fish in the pond.

The princess suddenly sighed!

Xiao Jixiang asked: What's wrong with the princess? Don't like to eat pomegranates?

Ying Dongjun shook his head and said a little aggrievedly: "Yu Lang really lied to me at the beginning. The toothpick clipped in the book was indeed given by Xiao Yingniang."

Xiao Jixiang: How did the princess know?

Hua Mian's hand was fed with fish food, and she couldn't help but prick up her ears curiously.

Ying Dongjun raised the book in his hand with confidence and asked Xiao Jixiang to read the book, which had the words "Qionglou Biography" written on it.

Ying Dongjun: "It was written in the storybook!"

Flower cotton:...

Huamian continued to feed the fish.

Xiao Jixiang leaned over and read books with the princess.

Xiao Jixiang: Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager was so bold back then!

Ying Dongjun snorted, his tone slightly sour: "It's a pity that Mr. Yu doesn't like her like that!"

Xiao Jixiang echoed: Lord Yu only likes us princess like this!

Hua Mian picked up the empty bowl of fish feed and got up and left.

At this moment, Zhou Yan came hurriedly.

"Princess, the Flying Cavalry Guards are here!"
