"I'm asking you a question. Where are you going?"
Cui Xin: ...
I have to admit, when he turned around and saw Wen Yu sitting up, even though he was calm, he was still a little surprised.
I thought she was awake, but she was actually talking in her sleep. I thought she was talking in her sleep, but she had actually sat up and pulled back the curtains.
Every step was beyond his expectations.
Seeing Wen Yu looking at him despite being exhausted, Cui Xin lowered her eyes and whispered, "I got up at night and made a lot of noise. I woke up the princess. I deserve to die."
When Wen Yu heard the word "get up at night", she raised her eyebrows and was no longer sleepy. Was this like sending a pillow just when she was sleepy? Or was it sending it to her heart?
At night, I was still thinking about how to verify whether she was a cross-dresser. Isn't this a good opportunity that came right to my doorstep?
No matter whether she was really going to get up at night because of her sneaky behavior, at this moment, when she heard the word "get up at night", Cui Xin had to get up.
Wen Yu smiled with her eyes curved, yawned and said, "What a coincidence, this princess also has to get up at night, I will go with you."
Cui Xin was surprised when she heard this, and immediately shook her head stiffly: "Princess, please don't joke with me. I am a princess, and I have my own clean room for nights. How can I joke with you..."
Before Cui Xin finished her words, she was interrupted by Wen Yu: "That's nothing, Liuchun is always with me."
Cui Xin said: "Today the princess said how could I compare with Aunt Liuchun. I am so shameless."
Still holding a grudge...
Wen Yu said without any guilt: "Really? You must have remembered it wrongly. You are so young and your memory is not good. Eat more walnuts to nourish your brain."
Cui Xin: ...
The main reason was that he was actually a man. If he went with them, the risk of him being exposed would be too great, and this eldest princess was actually a woman...
Wen Yu curled her lips and ordered directly: "Help me put on my clothes, do you dare not let me go?"
Cui Xin paused slightly, but the order had been given and he had to obey at this moment.
He sighed imperceptibly and helped Wen Yu get up.
Wen Yu was wearing a thin white undergarment, so Cui Xin immediately took the cloak and put it on her shoulders, saying, "It's cold outside, Princess, you might catch a cold, so I'll help you get up in the clean room."
"You have a point." Wen Yu nodded, "I am also a good princess who cares for my maids. I will be kind enough to let you use my toilet once."
Cui Xin:?
"How...how can this be done?"
Cui Xin was so scared that she knelt down immediately.
Wen Yu looked at the top of her head and said with a smile, "It's OK if I say so."
Then he pulled Cui Xin up without saying a word and went to the clean room in the side room.
Wen Yu folded her arms and looked at Cui Xin, her face very amiable: "You first."
Cui Xin looked at the extremely luxurious toilet with tiger patterns carved on it, was silent for a moment, and then said, "My butt is not rimmed with gold, so I dare not sit on it."
"I agree, please hurry up, do you want me to help you?"
After Wen Yu finished speaking, she stood aside and looked at him sincerely, her eyes fixed on him, as if she would really help if he said yes.
Cui Xin: ...
He hesitated for a long time, then gritted his teeth and said, "Princess, please stay here and watch. I can't come out."
"It's okay, I'll just shush you." Wen Yu said as she whistled.
Cui Xin:?
The next second, his scalp went numb and he felt goose bumps all over his body.
He pursed his lips, as if he was about to cry: "Princess, please watch, I really can't get out."
"Then I won't look." Wen Yu turned her head to the side, "Hurry up, don't dilly-dally, we're all women, why are you shy?"
Cui Xin: ...
"Princess, I can make a noise, which is disrespectful to you..."
Wen Yu turned around and smiled: "If you don't take off your pants and sit on it, you will be really disrespectful. Be careful or I will punish you for not taking off your pants and not sitting on the toilet!"
At this moment, Cui Xin felt as if countless crows were circling above her head.
He suddenly regretted giving the reason of "getting up at night". It was a good idea to say that getting up at night was just asking for trouble.
But it seems that only the reason of getting up at night can reasonably cover up his behavior of getting up in the middle of the night.
Who could have thought that the eldest princess would have to get up at night with her maid?
Cui Xin thought about this, lowered her head, and said in embarrassment: "Princess, I suddenly don't feel anything, and I don't want to go to the bathroom."
Wen Yu clapped her hands in disappointment: "Ah... so that's it, I don't feel anything after what you did to me, what a pity, you don't have the blessing to sit on my golden toilet anymore."
Cui Xin: ...No one wants to sit.
Wen Yu sighed, took off her cloak leisurely and lay back on the bed.
She smiled slightly, and the verification was completed. It was 99% likely that he was a crossdresser.
A hint of interest flashed across Wen Yu's eyes, and then she fell asleep.
As for why she could sleep so soundly, it was because she trusted the emperor. Since he said he had sent a Qianyu Guard to keep an eye on Cui Xin, he would certainly not lie.
Keeping an eye on Cui Xin was not only to protect her, but also because as an emperor, he had to find out who Cui Xin was, otherwise how could he sit on the throne?
Cui Xin was shocked to see that Wen Yu fell asleep in almost a second.
He walked a little further away and waited for a moment. Seeing that she was sleeping soundly and without any movement, he made a quick decision and left the room.
At this time, late at night in the Ministry of Punishment, Lance was being handcuffed to the interrogation rack.
Although he was being tortured and had serious injuries, his face was calm.
There were two constables guarding each corner of the interrogation room, and a team of imperial guards outside.
Jiang Qi strode in, followed by two junior officials of the Dali Temple, ready to interrogate together.
He untied his navy blue cloak and threw it to the captain, and immediately someone brought three pear blossom chairs forward.
When Lance saw Jiang Qi in the middle, he raised his eyebrows slightly, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, and he took the initiative to say: "I remember you, you were the one who followed me all the time and mobilized the imperial guards to chase me."
Jiang Qi remained unmoved upon hearing this. He sat down leisurely on the pear blossom chair and looked at Lance calmly. His eyes were sharp and extremely penetrating.
He opened his mouth and said, "You Xili have already signed the surrender agreement, did you know that?"
Even though Lance was being locked in this extremely powerful gaze, he did not seem to be at all embarrassed by being detained.
He stared at Jiang Qi and chuckled, "You are not qualified to ask these questions. I want to see Jiang Qi, the Dali Temple Minister, and he should be the one to ask."
Jiang Qi's eyes moved, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. The captain of the police beside him immediately stepped forward and whispered.
After hearing this, he showed an expression of helplessness and realization, and finally sighed and slowly said, "I am Jiang Qi, the Minister of Dali Temple."
