Cheng Jin subconsciously pulled Xiao Yu away, avoiding the appearance of a snake.

Princess Yongning was anxious and angry, but she could not attack, and finally left in a hurry.

She is not in a hurry, even if she is now grounded, she will still have a chance to turn around when the emperor's anger subsides. She decides her marriage, and the only person she wants to marry is Cheng Jin, not any other man.

Cheng Jin breathed a sigh of relief as soon as Princess Yongning left.

He was only glad that Xiao Yu didn't give up on him, because he left the palace and approached him actively, otherwise he would only have an impression of Princess Yongning on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival. In this case, he is likely to be fooled by the lard and choose Princess Shang Yongning.

Now that he thinks about it, he is still afraid, and Xiao Yu is his salvation.

How did Xiao Yu know about Cheng Jin's thoughts? Her heart was still a little heavy.

After leaving the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Qin Zhao glanced at Zhixi.

This time, Zhixi testified against A Shao, but she still felt that Zhixi was suspicious.

Maybe it's just her preconceived idea, but she just doesn't like Zhixi.

Zhixi didn't seem to know that she was looking at her, and silently accompanied her to the side, looking respectful and polite.

Xiao Yu followed Qin Zhao's line of sight and whispered, "I didn't expect Zhixi to stand up and help us this time."

Qin Zhao slowed down and said to Xiao Yu, "You rarely enter the palace, go to Jinyang Palace and sit for a while before leaving."

Xiao Yu thought so too, but Cheng Jin was there, and it was inconvenient to enter Jinyang Palace.

Cheng Jin seemed to know her concerns and said to her, "You go, I'll wait for you to leave the palace together."

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Then I'll go get some snacks. You wait for me at the gate of the palace, I won't make you wait too long."

When Qin Zhao heard Xiao Yu say this, he knew that this girl was thinking about the desserts made by Baoyu.

And she had something to ask Xiao Yu, so she asked Xiao Yu to run this trip.

After going to Jinyang Palace, Qin Zhao didn't turn around to wipe his feet, and went straight to the topic: "You said that Zhixi had a crush on Cheng Jin, so why did she want to help you this time? You don't think it makes sense. ?"

"Because she is happy with A Jin, this time she saw A Jin being entangled by Yong Ning, so she helped to find A Shao. Isn't this a matter of course?" Xiao Yu disagreed.

Qin Zhao was silent for a moment before saying: "If I were Zhixi, and I didn't like you, and seeing you being entangled by Princess Yongning, I would definitely watch the fun, or even fall into trouble. I just saw Zhixi when facing the emperor neither humble nor arrogant, I I just think this maid is not easy."

Therefore, she didn't believe that Zhixi would be so good, and she would actually help Xiao Yu in turn.

If she is in a situation like Zhixi, she must hope that the muddy water will become more and more turbid, which will be beneficial to herself.

"Because Ah Jin promised his brother that he would prove his innocence in three days, but he didn't know where to start. If Zhixi hadn't stood up to testify against Ah Shao, and Ah Shao was exposed, Ah Jin might not have been able to pass the battle." Xiao Yu was also a little confused.

On the one hand, she knew that Qin Zhao saw people better than her. On the other hand, Zhixi really helped her and Cheng Jin this time. If she still doubted Zhixi, would she think she would cross the river and demolish the bridge?

Seeing Xiao Yu frowning, Qin Zhao couldn't help but smile: "The most complicated thing in this world is the human heart. In short, Zhixi is right under your nose, so you can keep an eye on it. You just need to remember Yongning today. The appearance of the eldest princess is enough. Zhixi has been by Cheng Shizi's side for many years, and Yongning's eldest princess is still in the devil's way. Do you think Zhixi will easily let go of her admiration for Cheng Shizi? A maid who has ideas for your man Just waiting for the opportunity, I may dedicate myself to Cheng Shizi at any time..."

"She dares?!" Xiao Yu's expression changed when she heard this.

Qin Zhao knew that Xiao Yu had listened in at this moment: "That's what I want to tell you. In short, keep your eyes open. If you have any doubts, discuss it with Mama Qi first. Remember, you need to be defensive."

Xiao Yu nodded again and again: "I see."

When she brought snacks and went to the palace gate, when she saw Zhixi peeking at Cheng Jin from time to time, she knew that Qin Zhao's concerns were correct.

Maybe Zhixi suddenly testifies against A Shao, and there is indeed another secret.

Maybe she should always find someone to keep an eye on Zhixi to prevent Zhixi from playing tricks...

"What's wrong?" Cheng Jin asked when seeing Xiao Yu staring straight ahead.

Xiao Yu leaned on his shoulder: "A little tired."

Cheng Jin thought that she was chilling for what Princess Yongning had done, so he comforted her and said, "Everything is over, and Princess Yongning can't hurt us again in the future."

"Hopefully." Xiao Yu remembered what Qin Zhao told her before leaving.

In Jinyang Palace, Qin Zhao was also thinking about Zhixi.

Seeing that she was thoughtful, Baozhu said, "This servant thinks that Empress is very concerned about the affairs of Princess Yongchun."

Qin Zhao felt the same: "It's probably because they are close to Ben Gong, and there are too few people who rely on Ben Gong so much."

She was always afraid that Xiao Yu would suffer a loss after getting married, but she also knew that Xiao Yu always had to grow up. This time, Xiao Yu handled the incident very well.

"Outsiders all say that Niangniang is vicious and domineering. In fact, Niangniang's heart is the softest. If others treat Niangniang better, Niangniang will dig her heart out." Baozhu said with emotion.

It's just that others will always only see how powerful the imperial concubine's wrist is and how noble her status is, but very few people can touch the most real and softest imperial concubine.

It was the first time Qin Zhao heard Baozhu say that he was soft-hearted.

Is someone like her softhearted? That was Baozhu's method of punishing people she had never seen in her previous life.

Especially when she is jealous, if someone commits a crime, that is to die.

In the past, she always felt that the Xiao Ce in this life was different from the Xiao Ce in the previous life, and was softer. Could it be that she was also influenced by Xiao Ce in a subtle way, that's why the gem is "soft".

In this harem, "softness" is not a good thing.

However, when he left the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Xiao Ce's expression was condensed, his eyes were cold, and he didn't seem to be in a good mood.

Xiao Ce grew up in such a harem environment. Except for the great empress dowager, all of Xiao Ce's close relatives seemed to have bad intentions.

Not to mention the late emperor's favoritism towards Concubine Wu, but the viciousness of the Empress Dowager Guo, and her treatment of her own son is not only a little bit better.

Today, there is another scheming and shameless Yongning eldest princess. If she stands in Xiao Ce's position, how can she be in a good mood?

Fortunately, she did not need to face Xiao Ce who was in a bad mood.

However, she was still too happy.

Before lunch, Zhang Jixiang came over and said that she was ordered by the emperor to accompany her to lunch.

On the way to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Qin Zhao made a rare inquiry about the situation: "How is the emperor's mood, is it better?"

It seems more than an hour away from the crowd waiting to leave the Hall of Mental Cultivation, right?
