Song Junzhan felt that it was not surprising that the princess knew something, but it was indeed unexpected that she knew so much and so clearly.
She told this so-called royal secret as if it were a casual story.
"How could the princess know so clearly?"
Xiao Li laughed: "After all, he grew up with the Queen Mother. They wouldn't be wary of an insignificant child. It's normal for him to hear something."
Not at all, it was just the plot she knew.
The plot wants Prince Chen to obtain the throne, but also wants him to be spotless, so the only way is to put the stain on the emperor.
This news will be revealed before Prince Chen officially takes the throne. Emperor Xiao Jingyun will become the target of public criticism because of his unusual background, and Xiao Jingyu will stand up and overthrow him as everyone expects.
But this is hard to explain, so let's just assume it was overheard.
Song Junzhan didn't know whether he believed it or not: "Although it is your Majesty's life experience, if it is really revealed, I am afraid it will also affect the princess."
Xiao Li raised her eyes and said, "You're overthinking it. No matter what happens to His Majesty or the Queen Mother, my background is clear. I will always be a princess born to a low-ranking concubine. Today, I no longer need to rely on this title to raise my status. Even if His Majesty hadn't been assassinated, this news wouldn't hurt me."
It didn't matter to her whether the emperor was her biological son or what his background was.
Having said that, Song Junzhan did not continue the topic.
"The Prince of Southern Qi and the Prince of Yanping are already in a state of confrontation, but the other major families, with the exception of the Qin family, are united in their desire to support the Crown Prince."
Xiao Li nodded: "A young puppet emperor is much easier to control than an adult prince."
Song Junzhan: "Prince Chen has chosen to join the camp of the King of Southern Qi, but the King of Wei has remained in the palace from beginning to end. It seems that he is not involved, and I have not heard of anyone supporting him."
Xiao Li raised his head slightly. "There's a saying that goes, 'The world is still uncertain, you and I are both dark horses.' You can't judge people by appearances."
Xiao Jingyi is a smart guy.
The two talked for a while, and Feng Yin washed up, changed his clothes, and bandaged his wound.
Looking at Feng Yin with brisk steps and a happy face, Song Junzhan pursed his lips, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.
That was the grandson of Grand Tutor Feng, and the princess had a very different attitude towards him.
"Princess."
Feng Yin quickly came to Xiao Li and greeted him happily. After calling out, he saw Song Junzhan sitting on the side. He quickly restrained his outward emotions and showed his usual demeanor: "Mr. Song."
Song Junzhan stood up and nodded: "Lord Feng."
After saying hello, he immediately turned around and said to Xiao Li: "I will take my leave first."
Seeing Feng Yin staring at Song Junzhan's back, Xiao Li raised an eyebrow: "What are you looking at him for?"
Feng Yin retracted his gaze, with envy still in his eyes: "Young Master Song is loyal to the princess and lives in the princess's mansion..."
He was envious.
Xiao Li sneered: "Is that all your ambition?"
Feng Yin retorted seriously: "This is not a question of ambition, but..."
He couldn't continue speaking and his face suddenly turned red.
Xiao Li couldn't help but smile. Even if this old-fashioned boy came to his senses, he still couldn't be thick-skinned.
Not wanting to discuss Song Junzhan's problem with him, Xiao Li said, "Instead of thinking about how to stay, you should first think about how to deal with Master Feng."
Feng Yin didn't understand at once, looked at Xiao Li in confusion, and then was suddenly stunned.
"Grandfather..."
I guessed something, but I couldn't believe it.
Xiao Li just laughed, and then the guards came: "Princess, someone from the Taifu Mansion knocked on the door, saying they were looking for their missing young master, but I didn't answer."
Feng Yin's face turned pale.
Although he only wanted to escape and see the princess, he also knew that he couldn't cause trouble for her. He had clearly been very careful to avoid the guards...
Even if my grandfather guessed that he would come to find the princess, why was he so sure and came to her so quickly?
"Princess, I can't go out."
Feng Yin was not stupid. He could guess the cause of the incident and made a decision immediately.
Grandfather just sent someone to ask, and the princess's mansion could just say that there was no one and reject them, but if he went out, he would be admitting guilt.
Xiao Li joked, "You can stay here now."
Seeing Feng Yin pursed his lips, Xiao Li raised his hand and pinched his cheek: "It's not a big deal, just a test, let him guess."
If it wasn't Master Feng, it could be someone else. However, she was very curious as to why Master Feng was testing her.
The Feng family members tussled at the door for a while before being coldly driven away by the guards without any response.
Feng Yin could have stayed, but knowing that Taifu Feng was testing him, he insisted on leaving. He just wanted to see that the princess was fine, and he absolutely could not stay and cause her trouble.
Not long after Feng Yin left, screams were suddenly heard in the mansion, and Lu Ling's corpse puppet appeared in the princess's mansion.
No one knew how it was controlled, but the corpse puppet rushed directly towards Xiao Li's residence. Because it came too fast, the guards were unable to stop it.
“KANG!”
Yang Jun drew his sword and stood in front of Xiao Li, gritting his teeth in hatred as he looked at the corpse puppet that kept provoking him but was extremely difficult to kill.
Yang Jun and the corpse puppet were fighting fiercely, and the guards came to help quickly. Fortunately, there were no other corpse puppets for the time being.
Seeing that they worked together to control the corpse puppet, he suddenly looked up and looked at Xiao Li with his lifeless eyes.
"Xuan...Yang..."
The broken and hoarse voice came out of his throat, which sounded particularly creepy.
Xiao Li was shocked. Could a corpse speak?
"Princess Xuan...Yang......"
Xiao Li got goosebumps all over his body. What the hell was this? It was so fucking scary.
"Chop him up." Cut him into pieces, grind his bones and scatter his ashes. She didn't believe that he could be put back together again.
However, before Yang Jun could make a move, he suddenly struggled to break free. This time he did not attack, but wanted to leave.
Xiao Li couldn't help but sneer, there is no such thing as three times the limit.
No matter whether it was a corpse puppet or some other weird thing, it couldn't attack her over and over again and get away with it.
"Control him."
Xiao Li quickly ran to the attic and took out a clay jar in a short while.
The moment Yang Jun suppressed the corpse puppet, he quickly opened the jar and poured everything inside onto the corpse puppet.
The moment the liquid inside came into contact with the corpse puppet, it began to smoke and corrode. The corpse puppet seemed to have no feeling and wanted to stand up, but half of its body was corroded away, and then the rest gradually disappeared.
In less than a moment, only the broken limbs and arms were left, still emitting terrible white smoke.
Everyone looked at the jar in Xiao Li's hand in shock. This corpse puppet was invulnerable to swords and guns, but it was actually dissolved by the potion. What on earth was that thing?
Xiao Li didn't explain and covered the jar: "Don't touch it with your hands. Cover it with soil and shovel it away."
When turning around, Xiao Li felt a little regretful. It was a pity that it was not the white-haired corpse puppet who came today. It was a waste of her jar of secret weapon. This potion was not so easy to make.
