"Brother...are you still mad at me..."
"I really didn't mean to look at it..."
When Dongfang Qing saw the expression on Princess Jingli's face becoming too much to contain, he withdrew his gaze and said calmly, "Don't interfere in this matter anymore."
When Princess Jingli heard this, she knew it was over.
I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"I can't help you even if I want to." Then he said, "Brother, you just came back, so I won't bother you. I'll go back first."
He looked at Dongfang Qing cautiously again before leaving.
Dongfang Qing looked at her back with unfathomable eyes.
Butler Bai, who had been standing outside, came in again at this moment and knelt down with a plop. "Your Highness, I don't know Princess Jingli... Please punish me!"
He had just heard what Princess Jingli said, and at that time he thought Princess Jingli really knew it... He was such a confused old man!
"Uncle Bai, get up, I don't blame you."
Knowing Dongfang Qing's character, Uncle Bai stood up, but his face was filled with shame.
What is going on!
He was quite old, but Princess Jingli said just a few words to him...
So much so that this kind of secret, once it is spoken out, it is out.
Of course, the most important thing now is not to pursue this, but the matter of Miss Ling San!
On the other side, on the way back to the inn, in the carriage.
Princess Jingli was totally different from the cute and harmless girl who was timid when doing something wrong in front of Dongfang Qing.
Very calm and collected.
"Although my brother was somewhat suspicious of my intentions, at least he believed me in the end."
The attendant maid Yinzhu said, "Princess, His Highness the Seventh Prince is a very smart man. Your proactive decision to tell him this has actually dispelled some of his doubts."
Princess Jingli smiled calmly, confident in her thoughts, "After all, I really never meant to hurt him. He knows this in his heart."
She almost did something stupid before.
At that time, she actually wanted to conceal the fact that Ling Jing might have a relationship with the Seventh Prince. Fortunately, she realized it early.
And the Regent of Dajing...
"How could such a person lose to someone like Emperor Dajing? I just can't understand it no matter how hard I try..."
When Princess Jingli heard that he was in trouble, she couldn't believe it.
The man she had high hopes for and was willing to stay in Dajing for, actually died just like that?
"Still no clues?"
Yinzhu shook her head. "At that time, our people have secretly investigated the place where the Regent King of Dajing had an accident many times. Until now, there is really no trace. However, although the terrain on that day was a mountain stream, the stream is still very turbulent even now that the mountain torrent has receded. Even if there are good guards in it, they can't withstand the impact of the turbulent stream water..."
Princess Jingli frowned slightly.
"He actually chose this method..."
Yinzhu affirmed, "I don't think it's very strange. If the terrain of that place is surrounded in a fan shape, and the power is limited, and it is impossible to use Qinggong to leave, then the only way is that mountain stream..."
Then he looked at Princess Jingli, "Later, Emperor Dajing found the body and dealt with it, so our people couldn't get in."
Princess Jingli had an indescribable feeling in her heart.
She finally fell in love with a man, but he was gone just like that?
Seeing her silence, Yinzhu called out, "Princess?"
Princess Jingli's eyes were deep, as if she had made up her mind.
"No matter what, I will not go back to Xiyue Kingdom. The princesses of Dajing were married off to various countries in the world. They look glorious on the surface, but in reality they are miserable. I don't want to be the one to suffer the consequences once I return to Xiyue Kingdom."
Yinzhu couldn't interrupt, so she tried to comfort him in a nice way, "Our Majesty is different from His Majesty Dajing. Our Majesty loves you so much..."
"Oh, love?" Princess Jingli said sarcastically, "Except for the seventh brother, he has so many children. Who does he love from the bottom of his heart? Only the seventh brother is the son that he loves most. The rest of us are just his works and props."
"Princess...if you don't go back, your only option for staying in Dajing is marriage."
The princess originally had her eyes on the Regent of Dajing, but now...
Princess Jingli curled her lips again this time, and said nonchalantly, "Then let's get married."
"Princess, have you chosen a new candidate?"
"The person I like has never changed."
Yinzhu thought about the meaning of these words and was shocked. "But, but Princess, the Regent King Dajing is no longer here."
Princess Jingli didn't care at all. "Isn't the Regent's Palace still there? That's fine."
Yinzhu didn't know what to say.
Our princess is stubborn by nature and will never change her mind once she makes a decision.
Let’s talk about another place in Kyoto.
The Ministry of Justice Prison.
Baili Feiyue has been sued now, but he is only a suspect and has not yet been investigated and convicted, so the conditions in the place where he is detained are relatively better.
There are simple utensils inside. Although they are not expensive, they are very neat and clean, and it is obvious that they were made with great care.
There is no peculiar smell either.
Overall, it's clean and fresh.
Now, Mu Qing's father, Minister Mu, asked the entourage and the guards nearby to go out, leaving only himself and Baili Feiyue.
He looked at Baili Feiyue.
Baili Feiyue smiled as if nothing had happened, "Uncle Mu, do you have something to say to me?"
"Third girl Ling, I won't beat around the bush. What are your plans?"
Baili Feiyue shrugged and smiled mischievously, "I'm relieved. I believe in the abilities of Uncle Mu and Lord Shangshu Wang. They will definitely clear my name."
Minister Mu wanted to hit Mu Qing on the head like he was going to hit her twice, but her mentality was pretty good and she could even make jokes.
Can he just find out the truth about this matter?
There is no need to investigate the truth. No matter what they find out, the "truth" will only be the one required by the higher-ups.
There is no way this girl in front of me doesn't know.
However, at this moment, she still looked smiling.
Minister Mu was helpless, it seemed that she didn't want to talk anymore.
He patted her shoulder and said, "If you need anything, just tell the person on duty outside."
Baili Feiyue blinked, "Thank you, Uncle Mu. I will definitely not be polite."
"You." Minister Mu was both angry and amused, he shook his head and left.
Baili Feiyue chose a seat, just like at home, sat back and closed her eyes to rest.
Then, as evening approached, visitors began to arrive in waves.
First, Yinghuan and Ling Xueer brought her various kinds of food.
After they left, Baili Feiyue had just finished her meal when an unexpected but reasonable person came.
"It seems that you have adapted well to life here."
Baili Feiyue raised her eyes and looked at Ling Ruolan under the white cloak. Even though she was disfigured, she still looked otherworldly. The corners of her lips seemed to smile, "Thanks to you, second sister."
