Undermine trust? Hu Dutong raised his eyebrows. No matter what the relationship between the prince and the princess is like, as long as this trust is on thin ice, there will be more things that can be used to stir up trouble.

"Your Majesty is wise." Hu Dutong looked enlightened and complimented with a smile.

Gong Yunyang said seriously, "No matter what, the princess's safety is the most important."

"Yes!" Hu Dutong understood the emperor's meaning and retreated back into the darkness.

Meanwhile, Yin Yu also returned to the pavilion. Seeing the two of them looking depressed, and obviously unable to solve the problem, she pretended not to know, "Do you two sisters have any solutions?"

"Oh, let's not talk about this. Knowing that the other party has evil intentions but finding out that there is no way to deal with it, it's really frustrating!"

Just as Yin Yu was thinking about how to gradually lead the two people to the direction arranged by the prince, Zong Zheng Xiaoting's voice came from behind, "Since the three of you are so anxious, how about I lend you a helping hand?"

A graceful figure came into view, and Zong Zheng Xiaoting walked slowly towards them accompanied by Xiaohong.

"Meet the princess!"

"Everyone, get up." Zongzheng Xiaoting took Xiaohong and sat down in the pavilion. He smiled at the people in Xiangbi Pool and spoke slowly, "I heard that you all have your own opinions and ideas about the prince's request for you to leave the palace today?"

"Princess..." The three of them were a little uneasy and stood aside awkwardly.

"Why, when facing a powerful enemy, you know how to unite to get rid of the difficult person first, but you are so timid in front of me?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting smiled lightly, took the teacup handed to him by Xiaohong, took a sip, and glanced at Yin Yu. "I heard that you said that the prince should do his best to fight for the person he likes and not let him down, right? I also heard that what you said was very obvious, that is, I am not sincere to the prince, huh?"

Now, Xiang Bichi and the others understood that the princess came here to target Yinyu, but also to target them. After all, the prince did not deny what Yinyu said today, and the prince did not deny it, which meant that Yinyu's words were most likely agreed by the prince in his heart. The princess came here to call for punishment!

Oh my God, now they are thinking about how to deal with the most difficult Gong Yunfei, but if the princess keeps holding on to this matter, how can they have more energy to think of countermeasures!

Xiang Bichi was anxious and bowed to Zongzheng Xiaoting. "Princess, Yinyu was anxious and didn't express herself clearly. We are not the ones who are threatening you now! You are protected by the prince, so you are safe. However, I believe you have heard a lot about the strange deaths of the prince's concubines. Although the cause of death is unclear, the way they died and their fate are horrifying. Since... The princess already knows that the prince came here today to ask us to leave, and doesn't want to make too many sacrifices. So it's understandable that if the other party wasn't too difficult, the prince wouldn't have to be afraid of this matter at all! Moreover, if the princess didn't have a sharp tongue but a soft heart, how could she tolerate the three of us and stay until now? The prince said that we can stay because of the princess, so how could we overestimate our own abilities and think that we can compete with you, the princess!"

On the one hand, she analyzed and weighed the pros and cons for Zong Zheng Xiaoting, on the other hand, she secretly complimented him in order to ease Zong Zheng Xiaoting's hostility. Xiang Bi Chi like this made Zong Zheng Xiaoting couldn't help but re-examine her seriously. Staring at Xiang Bi Chi's every move, Zong Zheng Xiaoting's brows were tightly furrowed.

Considering Xiang Bichi's feelings and intentions towards Situ Xunxiao, there is no way this person could say such words to him sincerely. However, he strangely did not see any insincerity in her expression or even her actions. What was going on?

"Please judge, Princess. We are honest people and don't dare to have the slightest intention of doing anything unlawful." Lin Yin and Yin Yu quickly agreed. Zong Zheng Xiaoting glanced at them. On Lin Yin's expressionless and calm face, Zong Zheng Xiaoting clearly saw what psychology says: if a person's anger reaches a certain level, her face will not show anger, but expressionless. This is a critical point. If it continues, there will inevitably be a moment of explosion. As for Lin Yin's current stay in the palace, her behavior has changed over the past few days. It is no longer the same as when she first entered the Zhan Wang Mansion. She was trying to please people for a certain purpose and observe the people around her.

Or maybe it was related to Situ Xunxiao's behavior during this period. If Situ Xunxiao wanted to attract someone's favor, she believed it would be easy. But now, Lin Yin has changed like this. With a goal and a pursuit, she is no longer the same as before. If Lin Yin was cautiously testing and protecting herself before, then now she is purposefully striving and pursuing desire.

As for Yin Yu, she was originally a spy planted by Situ Xunxiao. All she had to show in front of others was to follow her master's wishes and be hypocritical. Therefore, she could clearly see some traces of lying on her face. And precisely because of this, Zong Zheng Xiaoting had deeper suspicion and confusion about Xiangbi Pool.

"Before the goal is achieved, too many people said too nice things. I have seen many such faces in the palace. Do you think what you say at this moment can shake my mind?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting pretended to be unhappy and said this. He observed the faces and attitudes of the people present, but he could only see Lin Yin and Yin Yu. He did not see any other abnormal expressions from Xiang Bichi, not even unhappy. What was even more strange was that she was not calm or expressionless, but was thinking seriously about what she said. What on earth was going on?

"Princess, even if you have many misunderstandings and confusions about us now, the most urgent task is not us. In fact, the biggest benefit of preventing Princess Yunfei from marrying into the palace is not always us. After all, at least now a word from the princess can sway the prince's decision. If that time comes, wouldn't it be easy for you to get rid of us? On the contrary, Princess Yunfei is not like this. Once she can successfully move into the palace and become a concubine, can the princess really make the prince sad according to Princess Yunluo's will? Even if the prince doesn't like her, he must give an explanation for the sake of the dead, right?"
