"I just looked outside for a long time," Jiuer raised her chin proudly and smiled at him with narrowed eyes, "Isn't it amazing?"
She is not pretending to be innocent and cute.
When she smiled, her eyes sparkled and she became the most alluring elf, so beautiful and lively.
It's really innocent and cute.
She is a combination of complexity and innocence.
She is extremely intelligent, but who says that intelligent people have to live their lives like old-fashioned, bitter and vengeful people?
Murong Jiu has always been a person who does whatever he wants and lives the way he wants!
"Su Jingxing?" Jiuer stretched out her little hand and waved it in front of his eyes.
Su Jingxing's eyes moved slightly, and he turned his head to avoid her gaze.
"Hey, Su Jingxing, you..." Jiuer came closer and stared at Su Jingxing's profile curiously, until she saw a thin layer of pink strangely appearing behind the ears of the cold and thoughtful man who always kept his emotions to himself.
Jiuer was stunned for a moment and sincerely felt that Su Jingxing in front of her was interesting.
"Hahahaha, Su Jingxing, are you embarrassed because I got too close to you?"
“You’re really… so funny, hahahaha~”
She smiled openly and without affectation, and Su Jingxing turned around.
"Miss Jiu, is this interesting?"
"Hehe, this is really interesting~" Jiuer didn't feel guilty at all.
Su Jingxing looked at her with his dark eyes with unclear emotions, and suddenly pursed his thin lips with a lighter color, raised his hand, and lightly scratched the tip of her nose.
Jiuer's smile was stuck.
Su Jingxing turned his head and quietly curled the corners of his lips.
They were having a great time in the carriage, but the eldest prince was feeling gloomy.
The queen's guess was correct. The eldest prince was now extremely uneasy after only lightly punishing the eldest princess.
He gave orders to a large number of trusted followers before even returning to the prince's palace.
After receiving the order, the confidant considered and said, "Your Highness, at this time, wouldn't it be better for us to remain unchanged and adapt to the changing circumstances?"
"Stay the same in the face of ever-changing circumstances?! Xiao Shi is dead! Earlier our people sent us news that Xiao Shi would attack Duan Ajiu. How could she commit suicide just because Su Jingxing exposed her for hiring a killer?"
The most hateful thing is that he had no idea that Xiao Shi had hired someone to kill someone!
Haven't received any news!
I was caught completely off guard!
But even if this happened, "She is not the type to hang herself! And the suicide note perfectly avoided the Prime Minister's daughter and Duan Ajiu who also witnessed her and Su Jingxing's affair in the Princess's Mansion that day!"
"The Queen's move was really brilliant! It didn't offend the Prime Minister, Su Jingxing, Chu Qing, and the others at all!"
It was as if they were deliberately mocking him, because he was the one who had let someone spread that rumor and also deliberately avoided it!
The eldest prince gritted his teeth.
The confidant paused, "How can Your Highness be sure that it was the Queen who did it?"
"Because she wants to kill me the most! I was wondering how she could be so stupid as to propose a marriage between Xiao Shi and Su Jingxing. She didn't avoid suspicion at all and made it clear that she wanted to win over Su Jingxing? It turns out that she was waiting for me here!"
"The most cruel thing is that Xiao Shi is dead! She used Xiao Shi's life to frame me!"
"Father didn't even investigate clearly, but he put the princess under house arrest. That should be a wake-up call for me! Father must have noticed some connection between me, Xiao Shi, and the princess!"
The eldest prince took a deep breath and sneered again, "However, if you want to overthrow me just because of this matter, you are too naive."
"Father did not investigate Xiao Shi's death. He simply glossed over it and will not investigate further."
"Then why is Your Highness still so worried..."
The eldest prince's sharp eyes were full of mockery and cruelty, "Because father would not care about the death of a daughter, but would care about my uselessness. I lost a move in this game, and that is my uselessness."
"He would not like a useless son. A useless son is worse than an ant in his eyes."
The eldest prince's eyes were filled with sarcasm. "Do you think he didn't notice the fight between us brothers? He stood by and watched, not because he didn't notice anything, but because he was waiting for us to fight a Gu King within his permission!"
"That's the successor he wants most, the one who can inherit this kingdom!"
The confidant didn't dare to listen at all. He was sweating coldly and his spine was chilled.
After venting his anger, the eldest prince calmed down.
He looked at his confidant with an unfathomable look, "What did you hear?"
"I heard nothing and know nothing!"
The eldest prince concealed the murderous intent in his eyes and said, "Remember what you said."
"I swear to follow your Highness till death!"
In short, after what happened today, those who came out of the palace had a lot of thoughts in their minds.
Jiuer is relatively the most relaxed one.
When the people in the Su Mansion saw Jiuer getting off the carriage with her master, Jiuer acted as if she was the only one in the house and could walk around freely.
After Jiuer spent half a day in the Su Mansion, she tidied herself up and easily sneaked into the Prime Minister's Mansion again.
Ever since Jiuer had a criminal record and said at the palace banquet today that she would come to find her, Wang Xiaojin, who had returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, had developed a habit of suspecting whether Jiuer had come to find her when she saw anyone.
After Wang Xiaojin had been suspicious for several times, Jiuer, dressed as a maid, came to her with a smile.
Wang Xiaojin was startled and quickly ran to close the door.
Jiuer sat down carelessly, "Xiao Jin, you don't have to act like a thief every time. It won't be discovered. Even if it is discovered, I can make them forget it and pretend that they didn't find it. Uh..."
"A-Jiu!"
Jiuer was just picking up some pastries on the table to eat when Wang Xiaojin suddenly hugged her tightly.
The key is that Wang Xiaojin is still shaking.
Jiuer put down the cake and asked, "Sister Xiaojin, what's wrong with you?"
"The Tenth Princess is dead." Wang Xiaojin was indeed shaking. She was afraid and guilty. After all, this was the first time that someone who had been involved with her had died. She had been restraining herself at the palace banquet, but now that she saw Jiuer, Wang Xiaojin, who was a little slow, reacted completely.
Jiuer felt that Wang Xiaojin's reaction time was really long sometimes, so she smiled and patted Wang Xiaojin on the back.
"The Tenth Princess is dead, what are you afraid of?"
"I just..." Wang Xiaojin realized that she was too nervous. She relaxed a little, "I just felt sorry for her... She's a good person, but she didn't..."
Jiu'er sighed, "There are so many pitiful people in this world. The Tenth Princess is pitiful, but you don't need to feel guilty about her death."
Jiuer narrowed her eyes. Although she was still smiling, her words were sober and ruthless. "Do you really think the Tenth Princess hanged herself? She is not the kind of person who would hang herself. She was killed by someone else."
Wang Xiaojin was shocked.
I can't speak.
"Sister Xiaojin, you don't have to be so surprised. The only person who could kill a favored princess so easily and promptly in such a strategic location in the imperial palace could be someone other than a member of the imperial family."
"As for why they wanted to kill her, it was because someone had poisoned her before. It was probably because of those four words - make the best use of everything. To put it bluntly, the Tenth Princess was just a victim of the struggle in the palace."
"There are countless such victims in places like the Royal Family. It's nothing new. In the eyes of those who can control her life and death, she is not a human being at all, but just a tool, a pawn."
Wang Xiaojin felt like it was difficult to breathe.
