Chapter 171 Speechless

"Eighth sister, I used to think that you had the best relationship with the third brother, but I didn't expect that you actually hoped that something would happen to the third brother."

"Aren't you afraid of hurting the third brother's feelings when you say that?"

Xia Muyan looked at Xia Chaoyan, his eyes filled with disappointment.

For the first time, Xia Chaoyan was speechless because of Xia Muyan's blockade.

She saw that the eyes of others looking at her changed, and she panicked and hurriedly explained.

"No, Tenth Princess, you misunderstood, how could I hope that something would happen to the third brother."

"I just think that the third brother must have something taboo, I..."

Xia Muyan saw that Xia Chaoyan was still trying to clear herself, so she interrupted her directly.

"Enough."

Xia Muyan's expression was tinged with a touch of coldness.

"Eighth sister, I know exactly what you are thinking, so don't explain it anymore."

"You keep saying that you are worried about the third brother, but if something really happens in the palace, how can we not know about it?"

"You clearly intend to curse the third brother, and you want to sow discord between me and the third brother. You are so mean."

"Eighth sister, I hate you."

After Xia Muyan finished speaking, she took her things and slipped away.

Humph.

Nian Nian was right, use magic to defeat magic.

Although she didn't know what magic was, she just used a few sentences that Xia Chaoyan often used to deal with Xia Chaoyan.

Seeing Xia Chaoyan being scolded and unable to utter a word, she felt extremely comfortable in her heart.

Woo woo, so cool.

Xia Muyan slipped away happily.

Xia Chaoyan was so angry.

I know, what do you know?

She hasn't even said what she wants to say yet! Xia Muyan knows it?

She obviously did it on purpose.

Xia Chaoyan looked at her brothers and emperors and smiled softly.

"Royal brothers, Chaoyan didn't mean that."

Everyone smiled and nodded when they heard it, and it was clear that they didn't believe it.

Just as Xia Chaoyan was about to explain a few more sentences, the group of people all found excuses to slip away.

Xia Chaoyan rubbed her handkerchief in anger.

Xia Muyan, I won't let you go.

From childhood to adulthood, she has never suffered such an invisibility. In the past, Xia Muyan was the one who got angry and lost her temper, and was disliked by everyone.

When did she become difficult to control?

It seems that after Qiao Niannian and Xia Muyan got to know each other, Xia Muyan rarely got angry.

Now not only has she become the favorite princess of her father, but even the royal grandmother has allowed Xia Muyan to live in Cining Palace.

She also wanted to stay in Cining Palace last time, but was rejected by the royal grandmother.

No way.

If this goes on, she will really be suppressed by Xia Muyan.

It seems that she has to think of a way to deal with Xia Muyan. If she

wants Xia Muyan to return to her previous appearance, she must first deal with Qiao Niannian.

Xia Chaoyan narrowed her eyes.

In this palace, dealing with Qiao Niannian is not a difficult task.

The difficulty lies in the fact that Qiao Niannian knows the mysterious art.

At this time, the palace maid serving Xia Chaoyan came in and told Xia Chaoyan the news she had inquired before.

Qiao Niannian was suddenly named a princess and cured the prime minister. Xia Chaoyan did not believe it.

She didn't believe that Qiao Niannian had such a great ability, so she asked someone to investigate.

Now the results are out.

The maid didn't know what happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but that day, the Crown Prince took Qiao Niannian to visit the Prime Minister, and the national teacher's apprentice Shen Jingrong also went.

But later, Qiao Niannian stayed, and Shen Jingrong left the Prime Minister's Mansion with an ugly face.

As for what happened specifically.

That day, there were no servants in the room, so no one knew the specific situation.

The maid was a little scared: "Princess, it's all because of us being useless. We didn't find out any useful information."

Xia Chaoyan's eyes lit up when she heard it: "No, this information is very useful."

Shen Jingrong went to the Prime Minister's Mansion and left with an ugly face, but Qiao Niannian stayed.

Could it be that Qiao Niannian stole Shen Jingrong's credit?

No matter what the truth of this matter is, Qiao Niannian must have offended Shen Jingrong.

She was still thinking of ways to deal with Qiao Niannian before, but now the solution has come, right?

Xia Chaoyan looked at the palace maid: "Go to the Sitianjian for me, and tell me that I have something I want to ask Shen Shaojian."

The palace maid immediately agreed and went to pass the message.

On the other side.

Xia Zeqi returned to the palace and saw the servant guarding the door. He slowly said: "Did anyone come to this prince today?"

The eunuch shook his head: "No one came."

"Did anything unusual happen?"

"No."

The eunuch answered very straightforwardly.

Nothing happened this morning, not even a bird landed in the yard.

Xia Zeqi breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed that he was overthinking. He returned to the study and checked the things on the bookshelf and the things on the desk. There was nothing wrong.

Every time he left, he would pay attention to the placement of things. As long as someone moved his things, he could tell.

After checking several details, there was no problem.

Xia Zeqi let out a breath.

He thought about the staff. He had already put it in Xia Rongyu's bedroom.

But there were no abnormal changes in the past two days.

Xia Zeqi planned to go into the dark room to ask the Dark God for advice.

He opened the bookcase, entered through the secret door, and walked all the way to the secret room. Xia

Zeqi had a gentle smile on his face all the time.

When the door of the secret room opened, the smile on Xia Zeqi's face suddenly froze. He took two steps forward and looked at the mess on the floor and the altar in the secret room, which had been destroyed.

Xia Zeqi was furious.

"Damn it, who on earth destroyed this prince's altar?"

Xia Zeqi turned around and was about to rush out to question the eunuch who was serving him, but he steadied himself after just two steps.

He was the only one who knew about the things in this secret room, and the servants in the bedroom didn't know.

Every time he came in, the Dark God's consciousness could tell whether it was him or not.

Except for him, no one else could enter the secret room.

That is to say, the person who entered the secret room was at least a person from the Xuanmen, and was very powerful, so he destroyed the altar.

The only person in this palace who was powerful in metaphysics was Qiao Niannian!

Could it be Qiao Niannian who did it?

This idea was denied by Xia Zeqi as soon as it came up.

He admitted that Qiao Niannian was very powerful, but no matter how powerful she was, she was definitely not as powerful as the Dark God.

The other party was a god, how could he be afraid of Qiao Niannian, a little girl.

Even though he thought it was impossible, Xia Zeqi planned to test the truth of the matter.

He went to the bedroom of the noble concubine first.

The noble concubine had just woken up and saw Xia Zeqi coming over with a lazy tone.

"Qier, why are you here today? Have you had lunch?"

Xia Zeqi stood up, looking unhappy: "Mother, I have something to tell you."

The Royal Concubine then looked at Xia Zeqi and found that Xia Zeqi's face was extremely ugly.

Something must have happened.

The Royal Concubine immediately dismissed her attendants, and for a moment, only the Royal Concubine and Xia Zeqi were left in the entire hall.

The Royal Concubine then spoke.

"You look so bad, what happened?"
