Chapter 216

Seeing that it was going to rain, Zijin left the city tower smoothly with Xiaoxue's support, and planned to go back to the palace to let Zijin take a good bath to drive away his fatigue.

Passing by the Punishment Division by accident, I suddenly saw a large group of people packing their things and coming out, to see who was being dealt with in this situation.

Zijin walked over and saw that what they were holding was the instrument of secret torture in the palace.

This aroused Zijin's interest, but she hadn't heard anyone tell her who made a big mistake today.

So, Zijin and Xiaoxue stopped walking one after the other, she turned sideways and asked Xiaoxue: "Why, did you deal with someone too well today?"

Xiaoxue didn't have a deep understanding of this aspect when she was with Zijin. She only knew that secret punishment was a secret punishment in the harem. Apart from Zijin's order, the only one who could order it was the empress.

At this moment, the Department of Punishment has used the secret punishment, and someone must have offended the queen who has a bad temper recently.

"Probably." Xiaoxue responded, and considering that this matter might involve many accidents, just to be on the safe side, Xiaoxue decided to ask herself, so she suggested to Zijin, "Why don't Xiaoxue go and have a look."

This sentence just fell into Zijin's arms, and she had exactly the same intention.

"Well, that's fine." Because Zijin knew very well that under normal circumstances, such secret punishments would not be used, and the empress must be a concubine of some place who used secret punishments.

However, at the stall where Xiaoxue went to ask, she met the servant next to the emperor.The other party was a little surprised to see Cheng Zijin in the Punishment Department, because it was unreasonable to come to such a lowly place in the Punishment Department with such a noble status, but he still showed respect as much as possible, bowed his body and saluted, and called out: "Your Highness."

Zijin didn't even look at the waiter, and said arrogantly and coldly, "What's the matter?"

The servant seems to have gotten used to it, so it is normal for such an arrogant Cheng Zijin to say, "Your Majesty wants you to pick a day to visit Weiguo."

It turned out that it was because of her Weiguo marriage, but she agreed to it for a while, but she didn't even see the regent.

Speaking of it, she is too ignorant of etiquette as a princess, but she is very upset about the current matter, Jiang Jiayan's face flashes in her mind for a while, and the urging face of her father, queen and queen flashes in her mind for a while.

In the end, she sighed, waved her hand and continued to decline: "There is no rush for this matter, I will naturally inform Father Emperor when I have chosen a date."

The servant naturally understood that no matter how much he persuaded Zijin, he would not change his mind, so he left cooperatively, bowed respectfully and said, "The servant will leave."

Zijin nodded, waiting for Xiaoxue to come back and report.

But Xiaoxue came back frowning. It seemed that things were not simple.

"Princess, this matter is a little weird. Everyone kept their mouths tight and only said which palace lady it was, but Xiaoxue didn't believe it. How could anyone use this kind of punishment on a palace lady?"

What Xiaoxue said couldn't be more correct, and Cheng Zijin also understood.

But her originally caring mood about this matter was messed up by the arrival of the servant just now.

She didn't have much interest in this matter anymore, she didn't want to care about who she was or whether the concubine was punished, and she didn't have the leisure time, and she didn't have the mood to clarify the facts for others.

After all, if you are too busy with your own affairs, who is in the mood to take care of other family's chores?

Zijin waved his hand irritably, telling Xiaoxue not to worry about it anymore.

"Forget it, the empress mother probably did this." Rubbing her temples, she complained, "I'm very annoyed now, go back to the palace and rest."

Xiaoxue leaned over and said yes, and left with Zijin supported. The days passed quickly, and neither Zijin nor Xiaoxue thought about it again.
