Zhuo Shen replied without any hesitation: "Xia Guan knows." The Cai family has been trying to find a way to spread the word about this matter and let the people in the whole capital know. However, they were suffering from the emperor's side, so they didn't dare to make any moves. ”

"Therefore, this matter has not yet spread in the capital," Pu Yangxuan looked at Zhuo Shen, "The emperor's meaning is also not suitable for disclosure now." So, how did General Zhuo know? ”

"Empress Cai sent someone to find a lower official, find a few people with strong martial arts, and secretly protect the Lu family, especially Lu Kang's eldest daughter."

Pu Yangxuan said: "Recently, how many times have the Cai family asked you for news? ”

"Three times." Zhuo Shen still didn't even think about it, answered directly, and said when these three times were and who came to see him.

Pu Yangxuan nodded, "In the past two days, the Cai family should come to talk to you again, right?" ”

"Yes." Zhuo Shen nodded.

Pu Yangxuan said: "Then you talk to them, let's just say that when you came to the Chu Palace, you heard that the King of Chu and the princess were discussing the matter of Lu Kang's eldest daughter at the birthday banquet, and they seemed to plan to do it when they were toasting." ”

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu?" Zhuo Shen frowned, "Reveal this...... Not quite right? ”

Xue Jinyi smiled faintly, "There's nothing bad, General Zhuo still needs to deal with the Cai family, if you haven't heard any valuable news, I'm afraid that it will arouse the suspicion of the Cai family, and they will definitely attack you." So, revealing something from time to time can keep you and your family safe. ”

Moreover, it can lead Chua down the wrong path.

Zhuo Shen bowed, "Thank you for your kindness to His Royal Highness King Chu and the princess." ”

"We are people in the same boat, we have to face all kinds of ups and downs, and we should care about the safety of everyone in this boat. Only when we are in the same boat can we cross the mountains and mountains and achieve the final goal. Xue Jinyi said with a smile.

Zhuo Shen nodded.

Xue Jinyi asked Qinglan to pour a cup of tea for Zhuo Shen again.

Pu Yangxuan waited for him to take a sip and asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

"Not yet." Zhuo Shen shook his head.

Pu Yangxuan said: "General Zhuo should go back early." ”

"Yes, the official will take his leave." Zhuo Shen withdrew.

Pu Yangxuan opened the booklet again, Xue Jinyi took out a blank booklet and two local chronicles, and the two of them made some records while flipping through and checking them.

In the blink of an eye, a day passed, and the next day, Concubine De sent someone to invite Xue Jinyi to sit in the palace, saying that she wanted to discuss the details of the birthday banquet again.

Such invitations are usually notified in advance, but people were sent on the same day, obviously to catch some people off guard.

The messenger will say that after that, they will go to Xingqing Palace together, and the birthday banquet between her and Ah Xuan will also be held here, which is quite meaningful, and it is the same as the last time the emperor held a banquet here.

Pu Yangxuan put on a pearl hairpin for Xue Jinyi, and looked at the delicate face in the mirror, "Concubine De wants you to listen to the wind in the palace with your own ears." ”

"I'll keep an eye on everything." Xue Jinyi nodded.

Pu Yangxuan said: "Queen Cai hates us to the core, and you also need to be careful." ”

He currently said that he was still recuperating, and the time to really pay after the birthday banquet was the time, so it was not convenient to follow him to the palace.

Xue Jinyi took his hand and smiled brightly, "Ah Xuan, don't worry." ”

Pu Yangxuan pushed a little harder, pulled the person to his front, and then kissed the corner of his lips, "The braised elbow that day, do you think it is particularly delicious?" ”

"Yes, yes!" Xue Jinyi nodded violently, and the beads on the step shook "crackling", "Your cooking skills are getting better and better." Is there any secret recipe for me? ”

Pu Yangxuan smiled: "It's more interesting when you eat it." ”

"Okay, okay." Xue Jinyi got up and shook the hem of her skirt, "So, when I come back today, I can eat delicious braised elbows again?" ”

"Yes."

Xue Jinyi clapped her hands happily, but rubbed her cheeks again, "Am I a little fatter again?" ”

"No," Pu Yangxuan grabbed her hand, "It's because you were too thin before, but now you look good no matter how you look at it." ”

This is called "Xi Shi in the eyes of the lover"! Xue Jinyi squinted her eyes and smiled sweetly, "Anyway, if I eat fat, if you can't hold it, you can ......"

Pu Yangxuan said: "No." ”

"It's okay, I'll pick you up." Xue Jinyi patted him on the shoulder, but they have the habit of exercising every day, so they don't have to worry about being overweight.

Pu Yangxuan smiled, "Then I'll wait." ”

Xue Jinyi stuck out her tongue at him and grimaced, and then beckoned to Shang Qinglan, "Let's go!" ”

Pu Yangxuan followed her to the door.

After Xue Jinyi boarded the carriage, she waved to him, "Wait for me at home!" ”

"Okay." Pu Yangxuan replied.

Xue Jinyi got into the carriage at this time.

Puyang Xuan watched the carriage leave, then nodded to the passers-by who saluted him on the street, then covered his mouth and coughed lightly, as if his body was still a little weak, and then turned around and went home.

He rolled up his sleeves as he walked.

This time, I'm going to find a more delicious way to braise the elbows!

Xue Jinyi's carriage deliberately circled half a circle from the vicinity of the East Palace, although there was some distance, but when he saw the Yulin Army standing in a forest, he could feel a depressing atmosphere, and under the blue sky and white sun, he could even see wisps of black resentment rising from the majestic palace.

The court will always revolve around some ghost stories.

Pan Li killed her sister, and her death was extremely bloody and terrifying.

The women of the East Palace are under house arrest, and fear and resentment grow day by day.

Qinglan muttered, "Why does the slave feel cold? ”

Xue Jinyi said: "Because the hearts of people here are cold. ”

Qinglan rubbed her arm, "Princess, do you think Pan Li's ghost will stay in the East Palace and refuse to leave?" ”

Xue Jinyi nodded in agreement, "Very likely." ”

"Yikes!" Qinglan shrunk her shoulders, "Although she has done a lot of evil, she is just a way to die like that...... I'm sure I'm going to take revenge on the prince, right? ”

"Alright." Xue Jinyi rubbed her shoulder, "Don't think about it, it's not us doing bad things anyway." This is about to enter the palace, so let's be cautious in our words and deeds. ”

Qinglan nodded hurriedly, "Yes, princess." ”

Soon, when she arrived at the gate of the palace, Concubine De sent the big palace maid Si Xiang to greet her at the door, and then she was going to Concubine De's bedroom on her shoulder.

Xue Jinyi nodded to the palace maid, then sat on her shoulder, and the palace maid took her to walk slowly on the road.

She quietly observed her surroundings, and the speed was deliberate.

Sure enough, halfway through, a team of palace maids came to meet him.

Si Xiang reminded softly: "It's someone from Fengyi Palace." ”

Xue Jinyi nodded slightly, she had already expected that the queen would definitely send someone to intercept her halfway.

After the people on both sides stopped, the palace maid led by the people sent by Empress Cai saluted respectfully, "Princess Chu, the queen is invited." ”
