The huge Shengxuan Palace is brightly lit against the backdrop of the moonlight.

The slightly cool air seemed to be ignited by the lamp, making it extremely restless.

Jian Xi is dressed in elegant white clothes, with her black hair gently pulled back.

Three thousand blue hairs sway, like a fairy and a demon.

She walked lightly, but with the indifference of not recognizing her relatives, she steadily walked into the sight of everyone who was waiting for her arrival.

That white figure was imprinted deep into Jicang's pupils.

He used calmness to hide the turmoil in his eyes.

Since leaving the government office that day, except for today's request, he has not been able to get a single word from Jian Xi.

But Jicang also knows that after today, his road will only be more difficult...

The eyes of the old princess and Mrs. Xiao were full of satisfaction and appreciation.

For some reason, Mrs. Lou felt a little bit jealous in her heart.

In the past, she did not care about Jian Xi's background and resented Jian Xi for being favored by Mr. Xiao.

Only she was not as jealous as she was today of Jian Xi's demeanor and her extraordinarily charming face in the middle of the night.

That person is already a fairy under the moon without applying makeup.

That man is dressed in plain clothes but has a certain charm that lights up everything.

Lou thought, it's great to be young, so fresh...

After a moment of daze, Mr. Lou struggled out of his sour mood.

she asked Jian Xi.

"More exposed, where have you been?"

Jian Xi said.

"My whereabouts have nothing to do with the second lady."

Lou asked angrily.

"I am also the master of this palace. Don't I have the right to ask you? You disappeared late at night. If you didn't do something shameful, why can't you tell the truth?"

Jian Xi greeted the old princess and Mr. Xiao.

He did not speak to Jicang after that, but sat down under the arrangement of Lufen.

Only then did everyone clearly see the team following Jian Xi.

This small group of people couldn't even recognize Jicang.

Their battle made Mr. Lou frown in displeasure.

she asked.

"What are you going to do?"

Jian Xi said in a light but firm voice.

"Of course, the new accounts and old accounts will be added together to save trouble."

No one in this room understands what Jian Xi means.

It was precisely because he could no longer understand that Lou was caught off guard.

It felt like something unpredictable was waiting for her.

Strike first to gain the upper hand!

She asked in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, the old princess will leave the entire Xunheju in your hands. The assassination of the old prince today is a responsibility you cannot shirk."

Jian Xi said.

"Just Madam Yi, let's talk about things one by one slowly."

Lou choked and felt a little angry at Jian Xi.

Thinking of the regent, Lou calmed down and asked Jian Xi.

"Okay, I'll listen to your explanation, madam!"

The status of all the masters of Prince Shengxuan's palace present was above Lou's.

But they all took it out of themselves and deliberately gave Lou room to perform.

Only Mr. Lou himself couldn't see clearly.

Jian Xi asked Xiao to gather everyone in the palace.

These servants had also been awakened a long time ago. Some of them had confused eyes, while others had flashing eyes.

Jian Xi said to them.

"The old prince was assassinated today. Did any of you see the assassin?"

My servants, you look at me and I look at you, and you don’t know where to start.

Silence makes people panic for no reason.

An old woman in yellow-brown coarse clothes spoke up in the crowd.

"This old slave knows some self-defense skills, and happened to see the assassin's figure in the dark."

Jian Xi said to her.

"Then tell me what you saw."

The woman continued.

"The assassin was dressed in black, so I couldn't take a closer look. She only had one accessory on her body, so I took a closer look under the moonlight."

Jian Xi raised her lips and smiled.

"You keep talking."

The woman swallowed her saliva, her eyes suddenly changed, she pointed at Jian Xi and shouted at the old princess.

"Old princess, I can see it clearly, the assassin is her! I can see it clearly!"

Jicang frowned in displeasure.

He knew that this woman was Mrs. Luo who worked for Lou Jiahui.

He felt that Lou Jiahui was tired of living and would do anything to frame Jian Xi.

The old princess did not speak, but Mr. Lou straightened his back and leaned forward slightly to ask.

"How are you sure the assassin is Jian Xi?"

Mrs. Luo said quickly.

"The old slave can look at bones, and by looking at the assassin's body, he can tell that she is a woman. Later, the old slave saw clearly the jade pendant worn by the assassin. It was clearly given to Jian Xi by the eldest lady..."

After saying that, Mrs. Luo looked at the all-white jade pendant on Jian Xi's waist.

Everyone in the palace knows about this jade pendant, and many people have seen it.

At this time, other servants spoke submissively.

"Excuse me, I also vaguely saw the figure of the assassin, who is similar in stature to Dr. Jian..."

"The slave didn't see the assassin's appearance, but she heard the assassin's conversation when she went to the toilet at night. The voice... was similar to Doctor Jian..."

Mrs. Lou then breathed a sigh of relief and let go of her uneasy heart.

She thought that she thought too highly of Jian Xi.

Where does an ordinary housewife from a servant background get the ability to turn defeat into victory every time?

It was just Jian Xi’s luck before!

Once her mind relaxed, she was no longer anxious to get ahead.

Lou looked at the old princess and Jicang and asked.

"Mom, Cang'er, it concerns the old prince, don't let it go easily!"

The old princess indicated that she would give Jicang full authority to handle it.

Jicang said.

"Everything has to have a reason. It doesn't make sense that Jian Xi would do harm to his grandfather and not restore his health."

Lou frowned and said.

"You still want to protect her now? You...what if Jian Xi fails to save your grandfather? What if everything is just an illusion created by Jian Xi to gain favor?"

Lou looked at Jian Xi and said word by word.

"If everything is false, then she can only shirk responsibility and justify herself by letting the old prince die unexpectedly!"

Mr. Lou's words were clear and logical, which made many people think deeply.

The shopkeeper, who had been behind him without even daring to raise his head, finally raised his head and took a look at Mrs. Lou.

He is here to complete the important task of eating melons ordered by Tianhe and other adults.

But is this the nobleman in the palace?

Don’t you have a brain?

Even if you don't know each other, you can still see the extraordinary temperament of their Lord Judge...

Their Lord Judge is steady and calm from head to toe.

Does it look like I just let you into a trap?

The shopkeeper quietly moved his stiff body and moved to the side, and accidentally bumped into a cold-faced beauty Jiao'e.

He smiled at Mei Jiao'e, who treated him like air.

The shopkeeper curled his lips and glanced at the jade pendant around Mei Jiao'e's waist.

According to his judgment, this cliff is a high imitation.

Not many people in Dazhou can have such skills, but unfortunately he knows them all.

So he looked at it carefully again, and he already knew the origin of this fake jade pendant.

He thought, he must take the opportunity to claim credit from the Lord Judge...

Seeing that the atmosphere was almost exaggerated, Mr. Lou said to Jicang.

"Cang'er must not be stubborn anymore!"

Jicang didn't even look at Mr. Lou.

In full view of everyone, Mr. Lou was extremely embarrassed.

She said angrily.

"What are you still hesitating about? Who else could it be if she wasn't her?"
