The lubricant was smeared on the steps, and the light yellow color blended with the steps, making it difficult to see clearly.

But, she smelled it.

This was just painted on recently.

Ever since she became pregnant, there have been as many people who have tried to harm her, openly or secretly, as ants, and she has been on high alert.

Just now, if she had stepped on it, she would have slipped, fallen backwards, and rolled down the stairs. At such a high position, how could she still keep the baby in her belly?

Qin Ye's eyes suddenly turned cold, "Someone come!"

The old butler came over and learned about the slippery oil. He was so frightened that his body trembled and he almost couldn't hold it. He hurriedly told the prince about it and launched an investigation.

The maid who was crying with her hands covering her sleeves was also stunned.

It was clearly about to step on it, why did it suddenly stop?

If you fail to complete the task, it will be difficult to do it in the future!

Suddenly, a gaze came over.

As soon as she raised her head, she met the gaze of Princess Chen. Her heart trembled violently and the expression on her face was almost exposed. After a second, she reacted and pretended to be sad and crying.

Qin Ye held the railing and walked steadily step by step.

Walk over.

"What are you arguing about?" She glanced at the two maids.

The crying maid knelt down, her eyes flickered, and she choked up and said:

"To answer the princess, my mother is seriously ill. I wanted to ask Sister Qinglian for two days off to go home and visit her, but she wouldn't allow it. I was really worried about my mother, so I started crying."

The maid named Qinglian bowed and replied:

"Princess, Xiaowu has used up her leave for this month. According to the palace's rules, she cannot leave the palace."

She is businesslike.

Qin Ye looked at Xiao Wu.

Xiaowu's eyes were red from crying and she looked really sad.

"Rules are dead, but people are alive. Since you have an urgent matter, you should leave the house quickly and visit your mother," she said.

Xiao Wu was overjoyed, "Thank you, Princess! Thank you, Princess!"

I kowtowed three times in gratitude:

"Thank you so much, Princess!"

After she saluted, she immediately got up and ran out quickly. From an angle where Qin Ye couldn't see, she looked guilty and breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Princess Chen did not doubt her.

Once she left the palace and escaped, Princess Chen could no longer catch her.

hey-hey!

Run away quickly!

"Qin Ye!" At this time, outside the courtyard, Zong Zhengchen, who received the news, rushed over immediately, nervously grabbed Qin Ye's shoulders, and checked him up and down.

"Are you okay? Did you fall? Are you hurt anywhere? Does your stomach hurt?"

His face turned pale and his voice was rapid, and it was obvious that he was frightened.

Ling Qianyi, Yun Yingyue'er and others also ran over anxiously.

Qin Ye shook his head. "I have been careful all the time and didn't fall. Now, let alone walking, I don't even dare to eat anything."

I’m afraid that someone might tamper with the food by accident.

Zong Zhengchen breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, his face suddenly became stern, "Check!"

The murderer actually dared to harm people right under his nose. He was so arrogant and bold, and didn't take him seriously at all!

If we catch this person, we will make him suffer neither the wish of life nor the wish of death!

At the command, the whole government was investigated.

Ling Qianyi had a handsome face and said seriously: "Aunt, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but why don't you find a temple, or go to the countryside, or a remote place, give birth to the child before returning to the capital, otherwise there will always be people who are eyeing you, and you can't guard against them!"

"Uncle, does what I said make sense?"

Yun Ying interrupted, "Young Marquis, the position of Crown Prince is vacant now, and each prince has his own thoughts. If the prince is away for a few months, I'm afraid the sky in the imperial capital will change."

She analyzed:

"But if the prince stays in the imperial capital and the princess goes to the countryside, the two will be separated for several months. The prince will definitely be reluctant to let them go."

After Ling Qianyi heard this, regardless of whether Yun Ying's words made sense or not, he smiled and approached her, gave her a thumbs up, and said proudly:

"Look, everyone, look at how much my Yun Ying looks like a master! You can tell at a glance that she is the wife of a young marquis."

Yun Ying: “…”

Qin Ye: “…”

Zong Zhengchen: “…”

Everyone: “…”
