Chapter 83
"Now that the truth has come out, what else does the First Prince have to say?" Seeing Long Weishu's embarrassed expression, Xu Ruqing's smile carried a bit of sarcasm.

Long Wei wrote with a gloomy expression: "It turned out that this was a misunderstanding. Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, this king will keep his promise. After returning, he will immediately issue an edict and bring five thousand war horses to the Wei Palace."

Long Weishu knew that he was ashamed, so he didn't wait for Xu Ruqing to speak, he ordered his servants to carry Zuo Qianxue back to East Dragon Courtyard on a stretcher, and he followed.

Su Yichen looked at Xu Ruqing in front of him, with a look of searching in his eyes: "How did you know that Lin Yan'er is the real culprit?"

The situation just now was extremely unfavorable to her, if she accidentally took a wrong step, she might be charged with murdering the royal family.Su Yichen looked calm on the surface, but he was worried about her in his heart, and was always trying to gain an advantage for her.

But he didn't think that he would underestimate this woman. Under such a tense situation, she could face everything calmly and use her intelligence to find the real culprit, which really surprised him.

Xu Ruqing turned her head when she heard the sound, and faced Su Yichen who was seated in the main seat: "The concubine was just guessing, Lin Yan'er panicked and showed her feet, and the concubine was just a mistake."

"Really?"

Xu Ruqing met Su Yichen's soul-piercing eyes, and she had an inexplicable illusion that he seemed to know the truth a long time ago.

Xu Ruqing's face remained unchanged: "Yes."

"The medicine powder that your servant girl found from Lin Yan'er's room should have appeared on your body. You didn't say anything when you found out, but just planned... You actually said that it was just a mistake?"

When Xu Ruqing heard the words, she smiled relievedly: "Since the prince knows, why bother to ask more questions."

Seeing Xu Ruqing finally admit it, Su Yichen smiled even more.

His eyes seemed to glance at Xu Ruqing's calf inadvertently, and then the smile sank, replaced by a touch of worry.

From the beginning of the banquet, he noticed that her movements seemed to be sluggish. Although she looked no different from ordinary people, compared to her previous brisk walk, Xu Ruqing obviously had difficulty moving.

"The princess is overworked today, so I won't leave you here to wait on me. After finishing the meal, the princess should go back and rest early."

After such a thing happened, Xu Ruqing no longer had the intention to continue the banquet, and Su Yichen's words were undoubtedly on her mind. "Yes, the concubine will not disturb the prince's elegance, and the concubine will leave."

Su Yichen nodded slightly, she turned around, and then Zhiqu stepped forward to help her leave the room.

Not long after Xu Ruqing left, Su Yichen dismissed the dancers in the house, and left after sitting for a while.

All the way back to Yelan Pavilion.

Xu Ruqing asked Zhiqu to call hot water immediately, took off the cumbersome clothes on her body, raised one leg and stepped into the wooden barrel, and then the whole body slowly fell asleep in the warm water.When the pores all over her body were relaxed, she instantly felt relaxed, and her body and mind felt indescribably comfortable and smooth.

"I didn't expect Lin Yan'er's thoughts to be so vicious! Fortunately, the princess is smart, otherwise she will fall into her ways!" Zhiqu gently rubbed Xu Ruqing's white lotus root arms, still chattering indignantly.

Xu Ruqing lay in the water and raised her head slightly. Hearing this, she just smiled and continued to close her eyes to enjoy the rare comfort at this moment.

As if thinking of something, Zhiqu said again: "But then again, Lin Yan'er is Aunt Zhang's niece, and now she has ended up in such a tragic end, will Aunt Zhang hold this matter to the princess, and find her in the future? Princess, your trouble?"

Aunt Zhang has no children, so she treats her niece Lin Yan'er as her own daughter, and everyone in the Wei Palace knows this.Now Lin Yan'er is being sold to a brothel as a prostitute, I'm afraid Aunt Zhang can't bear this blow and embarrass Xu Ruqing in the future.

Thinking of this, Zhiqu couldn't help but worry for Xu Ruqing.

Hearing this, Xu Ruqing opened her eyes slightly, and the rising mist lingered around her body, portraying her whole body as both real and illusory.

"If you do many unrighteous actions, you will die yourself. This is the retribution Lin Yan'er deserves. No matter how angry her Aunt Zhang is, she can only smash her teeth and swallow it. After this lesson, Aunt Zhang will have to clamp down on it in the future." Tails are human beings, if one day she unfortunately falls into the hands of this concubine..."

When Xu Ruqing said this, there was an unfathomable smile on the corner of his mouth, which made people feel terrified.

Seeing Xu Ruqing's confident look, Zhiqu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "I believe that the concubine's extraordinary intelligence and intelligence will surely have a way to deal with Aunt Zhang. However, Aunt Zhang is insidious and uses vicious means to prevent In case the princess is always on the alert."

Xu Ruqing knew that Zhiqu was worrying about herself, so she just nodded: "Well, I have taken your words to heart."

Zhiqu responded with a smile, she changed into a clean handkerchief and wiped Xu Ruqing's body, her eyes followed Miaoman's lines to her feet, suddenly she exclaimed.

"Oh, princess, why is your place purple?"

Hearing the sound, Xu Ruqing raised her eyes and followed Zhiqu's gaze. Sure enough, her ankle was bruised and slightly red and swollen, and there were even a few big blisters on the sole of her foot.

She looked at it and just smiled lightly: "It's just a small injury, don't worry about it."

These injuries were left after she returned from working in the fields outside the city today. This kind of pain is nothing to her at all. If it wasn't for Zhiqu's reminder, she almost forgot about it.

"It's all broken, how can we ignore it? If it is not treated in time, the wound will become inflamed later on. You are really good, Wangfei, but you don't care about your body at all." Looking at the injury on Xu Ruqing's foot, she didn't notice her slightly reprimanding tone at all.

Xu Ruqing raised her eyebrows upon hearing this.Not bad, the little girl seems to have learned a lot during the time with her.

"Princess, don't run around here. This servant remembers that there is a bottle of medicine that can heal your injury in the cabinet in the front hall. This servant will bring it here."

Xu Ruqing looked at Zhiqu who was anxious and couldn't bear to stop her, so she had to let her go.

After a while, the wooden door creaked and was opened, Xu Ruqing thought that Zhiqu's movements were quite fast, the front hall was some distance away from the sleeping hall, yet she was able to come back so quickly.

Through the gauze curtain, Xu Ruqing poked out half of her head to look out, and when she saw that the visitor was not Zhiqu, there was finally a crack on her dull face.

Xu Ruqing frowned subconsciously: "My lord, why are you here?"

Su Yichen was ten meters away from her, and accidentally saw her naked body. He tried his best to suppress the redness on his face, and then said: "Come out, my king has something to see you."
