Seeing that Xiang Bi Chi was the first to speak out the rumors in the market, Lin Yin pretended to be surprised, "So, what the others heard a few days ago is true?"

"What about you? Did you hear it too?" Situ Xunxiao looked at Yin Yu beside him and asked with raised eyebrows.

"Yinyu basically never leaves the house. But one day, I did hear some rumors. Since I don't like listening to them, I didn't take them to heart." Yinyu just answered respectfully, with a calm expression on her face, maintaining the indifference and indifference she had shown since being ignored.

"Is this true?" Situ Xunxiao narrowed his eyes dangerously, very surprised. Of course, he had known about it for a long time, but he didn't need to think about why Gong Yunfei deliberately spread this matter. However...

Situ Xunxiao's gaze lingered on the two of them. "Just now, the princess told me that if Princess Yun Fei enters the palace, then you should leave Prince Zhan's palace before that."

"Yinyu has already prepared to leave the palace, but Prince, there are some things that Yinyu feels are unfair to the two sisters." Yinyu, who had been silent all this time, was the first to speak, "First of all, Prince, you are not as good to Princess Yunfei as you are to Princess Yunluo, not to mention that Princess Yunluo likes Prince, and everyone knows it. So, if it was Princess Yunluo, Yinyu would have nothing to say. However, the other party is Princess Yunfei. Master, that's fine. Secondly, the prince obviously has feelings for the two sisters, why did he hurt the two sisters' hearts because of Princess Yunfei? Is it because the prince and the princess have an agreement that there will only be one princess and one concubine? Yinyu thinks that if the relationship between the princess and the prince is unbreakable, there will be no concubine at all. And the prince, you said that it was the princess's intention, which means that the princess can actually accept a concubine, right? "

"So what?" Situ Xunxiao looked somewhat unhappy, staring at Yin Yu sharply.

Xiang Bi Chi and Lin Yin, who were standing by, prayed happily that Yin Yu could buy them some time to deal with the situation. Sure enough, Yin Yu lived up to their expectations and smiled softly without any fear. "If that's the case, why can't Your Highness live up to the beauty? As far as Yin Yu knows, the two sisters are the only ones who have impressed Your Highness. Yin Yu naturally believes that Your Highness will not be so ruthless. Please forgive Yin Yu's disrespect. Why would Your Highness do this? For a princess whom you don't even like and have no affection for, you hurt the heart of someone you love and cherish?"

Yin Yu's words expressed what was in their hearts, but they did not dare to show their joy. They could only lower their heads even lower to hide their joyful expressions at the moment.

"If you stay, you will only die. Which is better, to be sad or to die?" Situ Xunxiao stood up and said this.

"Your Highness." Xiang Bichi spoke first after considering this. "Your Highness, are you afraid that we will die? Why? Since the princess can accept us, why would she still worry about this?"

"Have I killed enough concubines?" Situ Xunxiao's voice was so cold that everyone who heard it could not help but shiver.

Lin Yin, who was frowning, now spoke up, "Prince, we are all wondering whether the concubines who were said to have been killed by the prince were intentional or framed."

Situ Xunxiao, who stood with his hands behind his back and his back to them, had a flash of light in his eyes after hearing this. "No matter which one it is, I have no choice. I cannot disobey the king's order."

"But Your Majesty, what if this order is to prepare wedding dresses for others?" Lin Yin bit her lip and asked, then she and Xiang Bichi looked at each other, and they nodded in tacit understanding, reaching a unanimous decision to face the outside world.

Xiang Bichi also stood up and walked forward a few steps, then stopped a few steps behind Situ Xunxiao. "Actually, if Bichi said something at this moment, Your Highness might doubt her intentions, but, no matter what, Bichi doesn't want to have any regrets. Can Your Highness listen to Bichi's words?"

Standing a few steps away, Xiang Bichi clearly heard Situ Xunxiao's extremely subtle sigh, "Go ahead."

This extremely subtle sigh gave Xiang Bichi hope. She once again firmly believed that although she was not as important in Situ Xunxiao's heart as Zongzheng Xiaoting, she was still an existence that could not be easily erased.

"As far as I know, Princess Yunfei has never shown that she likes the prince, right?" Xiang Bichi continued after seeing Situ Xunxiao nod, "No matter whether Princess Yunluo is arrogant or not, she is passionate about her love. If Princess Yunfei liked the prince, she would not have stayed with Princess Yunluo for so long. Since she didn't show such a statement, why did the princess make such an explanation before her death? Is there something else strange?"

"What Sister Bichi said is what Lin Yin wanted to say. Your Highness, as everyone knows, Princess Yunluo is straightforward and simple-minded. But the so-called murder of the concubine by your Highness is very strange. It all happened after the princess left. Your Highness has never thought about why. In fact, maybe it's because there are people who are more worthy of your protection." Lin Yin smiled bitterly, her fingertips constantly entwining the silk handkerchief. "People who are simple-minded don't have evil thoughts at all. However, those of us who have stayed in Prince Zhan's mansion for a long time can see things more clearly from the outside. We all have different opinions on who is behind the plot. If Princess Yunluo helps the ambitious man without knowing why, I'm afraid that would be the last thing the prince wants to do. And the prince actually wants us to leave because he is clear-minded, right?"

"There is no basis or evidence. This is all I can do." Situ Xunxiao turned around helplessly.

"But, Your Highness, the safety of the princess is even more worrying." Xiang Bichi met Situ Xunxiao's gaze and turned the topic to Zongzheng Xiaoting. "Your Highness can make it possible for the two of us to leave, because we have no official status, so we can be protected, but what about the princess? Even if Your Highness can protect her for a while, there will inevitably be times when he fails to take good care of her. Your Highness, there are some things that giving in is not the solution."

"Or, we can, from the perspective of an outsider, share your worries, and also find a ray of hope for our own feelings." Lin Yin agreed, and after seeing Situ Xunxiao's hesitant expression, she hurriedly took advantage of the situation and said, "And your Highness, we have our own desires, so we will inevitably know how to delve into the details better than others. Maybe your Highness still has room for maneuver, right?"
