The world is full of poisonous women

Chapter 232: Southern Border Envoy 9
"Zi Xing, did you hear about the assassin incident last night?" Helian Hongsi ran to Zi Xing Palace early in the morning, and she has been going here more and more recently.

Zixing knew that she was the one who invited her father and queen mother that night in the East Palace, even though she knew that Wu Jieyu taught her to do this, she didn't have much resentment.

Although their mother and daughter have some influence, they are not evil-hearted people, and Zixing has indulged her a little.

"Well, Duguhan brought someone here to ask." Zixing nodded and took a sip of porridge.

"The commotion is quite loud, but in the end, I heard that he was wrong. It is not an assassin at all, but a wild cat. Do you believe this? Originally, the father intended to let him be the commander of the Imperial Forest Army. But there was such a fuss last night, I'm afraid it's going to be dirty."

Zixing almost choked on the porridge, "Wild cat?"

"That's right! That's what he said to the father. He was the only one who saw the assassin, and later he led the imperial army to search everywhere. I guess he didn't find the assassin, and he was afraid of being blamed by the father, so he lied. See He usually looks serious, and he doesn't look like someone who can talk nonsense, so he is so cunning." Helian Hongsi curled her lips, remembering that night, the little maid in the East Palace said that she saw Zixing and Duguhan Regarding the disheveled clothes in the West Wing, she took a peek at Zixing, although this matter was left behind, compared to Helian Yueru's killing of Nangong Xiaoxiao, it was nothing serious.

But she still remembered those words.

I want to see if Zixing is really interested in that Duguhan.

But Zixing just started to drink the porridge again, without saying anything, she felt bored again, and talked about other things.

Duguhan returned to the room where he was resting in Hua'an Hall, and just opened the door when he smelled a familiar fragrance.

Dazed for a moment, he looked up and saw that Zixing was teasing the bird he raised there.

"Subordinates see the princess." He saluted immediately, and Zixing gave him a sideways look, "Get up!"

"Thank you, Princess. This is not where a princess should come." Duguhan stood up and began to drive people away.

Hua'an Hall is the resting place for the Imperial Forest Army and guards. Although he has a room for one person, there are many people coming and going. People from the harem are not allowed to come here.

"It's okay, Sixth Brother brought Ben Gong here, he left for a while, Ben Gong is waiting for him here."

"Then this subordinate will take his leave first." After speaking, Duguhan turned around and was about to leave.

"Come back!" Zixing frowned displeased.

"This subordinate stays here for too long, and the princess' reputation will be insulted." He lowered his eyes, and never looked at her directly since he came in and saw her.

"I used to often go to your house to play! Why didn't you say that you insulted my reputation at that time?" Zixing snorted, "Don't worry, I will ask you a few words. Let's go, it won't cause you any trouble. Did you let that 'wild cat' go away on purpose last night?"

Duguhan was slightly taken aback, "Yes."

"Why? You let the assassin go privately, and then used such clumsy lies as wild cats to deceive the emperor. You don't want your future fame? Do you know that if you say such nonsense, you will not be able to sit in the position of the commander of the Imperial Forest Army?" gone?"

Duguhan didn't speak, as if he was angry with someone.

Zixing didn't know why, but seeing him like this, he suddenly felt a little guilty.

"Did you know that the assassin was in the palace's bedroom at that time?"
