first class maid

Chapter 57
Xun Zhen's face became anxious, "Miss Liu, don't talk nonsense, I have no personal relationship with His Royal Highness, and I also tell you clearly that I have no thoughts about His Royal Highness, and I don't like people like him... "Suddenly felt a chill in my back, and I couldn't finish the unfinished words.

Xun Zhen, who had his back to the door, didn't know that the person behind heard her words, his face sank, the hands behind his back seemed to break off the big fingers, and his eyes shot directly at Xun Zhen's back, seemingly scrutinizing, but in fact It was as cold as ice.

"See Your Highness the Crown Prince." Liu Xinmei saluted hurriedly, squinted at Xun Zhen who was standing there, and smiled secretly at the corner of her mouth.

Xun Zhen hurriedly turned his head to look at Yu Wenhong, who had a calm expression, and quickly saluted, "I have seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Yu Wenhong didn't even look at Xun Zhen, and he didn't wake her up when he passed her, but he helped Liu Xinmei with his own hands, "Why is Miss Liu coming to the East Palace today?"

"Thinking that the weather is fine today, I want to play a game of chess with the Crown Prince, but I was told that the master is not there, so the servant girl came in and waited on her own initiative. Your Highness will not blame you?" Liu Xinmei said gently.

"That's really an unfortunate coincidence. Gu has something to attend to today, so I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany Ms. Liu." Yu Wenhong said with a smile.

Liu Xinmei is also a person with exquisite thoughts. Yu Wenhong's intention of chasing guests is obvious. He glanced at Xun Zhen and bowed his knees to salute, "His Royal Highness, Xun Zhangzhi is my old friend after all, and I hope His Highness will forgive her for her disrespect."

"Miss Liu really has a very compassionate heart, and she has her own opinion about the palace servants who made mistakes." Yu Wenhong glanced at Xun Zhen's still kneeling figure with cold eyes.

Liu Xinmei sighed softly, "Your Highness, it's only because of a few funny words from the courtier that she speaks disrespectfully to His Highness. If she gets punished severely because of this, the courtier will feel uneasy." Really exonerated, but actually showed his benevolence and morality.

Xun Zhen seemed to turn a deaf ear to the conversation between the two. Liu Xinmei deliberately led her to say that to offend the crown prince. Her thoughts were indeed deep enough, so she also took this opportunity to express what was in her heart. The arrogant thought that His Highness the Crown Prince really liked her, but she didn't want to be misunderstood.

After exchanging pleasantries, Liu Xinmei looked sad on the surface, but in fact she left with a smile in her heart, and before leaving, she gave Xun Zhen a pitiful look, "Zhener, you blame me, I am the one who hurt you. "

Xun Zhen didn't say a word, just raised his head slightly to watch Liu Xinmei leave worryingly, this Liu Xinmei painstakingly set a trap for her to jump into, and then pretended to be a good person, it's really ridiculous to think about it.

Liu Xinmei took a deep breath of fresh air. She just wanted to create a rift between Xun Zhen and Yu Wenhong. It would be even better if the prince punished Xun Zhen. She couldn't let this lowly maid take away the heart of His Highness the prince. It belonged to her, Liu Xinmei. Turning her head slightly, she smiled satisfied when she saw that one was drinking tea leisurely and the other was still kneeling with her head bowed in the main hall.

The atmosphere in the main hall of the East Palace was very delicate, even Sun Datong, Yu Wenhong's confidant eunuch, did not dare to say a word.

"What is a person like Gu? Well, Xun Zhen, can you explain to Gu?" Yu Wenhong's expression seemed to be talking about the good weather today.

Xun Zhen trembled all over when he heard his light and cold question, and it took him a long time to find his own voice, "Your Highness and slaves are so different, so why do you have to say that again and again?" Are you happy looking for slaves? Outsiders misunderstand the reputation of slaves is irrelevant, if His Highness's reputation is misunderstood, it is the fault of slaves."

Yu Wenhong looked at the hair on the top of her head for a long while, afraid that people would misunderstand his reputation?In fact, it was her own who was afraid of being mistaken. She was lying. I didn't expect her lying skills to be first-rate. She snorted coldly, got up and walked in front of her, "Where did you go last night?"

Xun Zhen was taken aback, what did he mean by this? "Where can the slaves go if they are not in the Shanggong Bureau?"

There were so many lies, Yu Wenhong didn't expect to face him, she lied again and again, her tone aggravated, "Look up at Gu, Gu will ask you again, where did you go last night?"

Xun Zhen didn't know what he meant by pursuing his whereabouts like this?Feeling aggrieved and indifferent in my heart, I raised my head and poked my neck and said in the same cold way: "The slave girl met with her friends in the Shangshi Bureau yesterday, and then returned to the Shanggong Bureau in a proper manner. Is this against the palace rules? ?"

The two stared at each other, Xun Zhen was still kneeling, but his momentum was not inferior to Yu Wenhong who was standing there.

The unknown fire in Yu Wenhong's stomach has been burning since last night until today, so he sent someone to the Shanggong Bureau early in the morning to find a reason to announce her, just to hear what she would say?For the first time in years, he was being led by emotion without deliberation.

Those obsidian-like eyeballs stared at her closely, and his tightly pursed lips revealed his displeasure. Xun Zhen felt that His Royal Highness's behavior was becoming more and more indescribable by common sense, and she also felt sullen. He vented his anger everywhere, and said angrily: "The slave girl just said something rude, and she is willing to be punished."

Yu Wenhong's eyes narrowed, and the fists in her sleeves were clenched suddenly. She provoked him again and again. Did she think that he really wouldn't punish her?This little court lady is getting more and more courageous, if it was in the past, he would have ordered Sun Datong to teach her a lesson, how could she let her pout in front of him?
Zhuang Cui'e really didn't see that Xun Zhen still had the courage to confront the cold-hearted His Highness the Crown Prince. As expected, the rumors were true, and she looked at Xun Zhen with complicated eyes.I am really puzzled, but now is not the time to think about this problem, so I hurriedly stood up and saluted, "His Royal Highness, the servants can testify that Xun Zhangzhi was indeed returned to the dormitory of the Shanggong Bureau after the banquet last night. In fact, the matter of going to the banquet was approved by Xu Shanggong. Now we are here to make a crown dress for His Royal Highness under the order of Xu Shanggong."

Xun Zhen only remembered Zhuang Cui'e's existence at this time. He didn't expect that she would stand up and speak up for her. He looked at her apologetically, fearing that she would be punished if she got tired.

Yu Wenhong stared at Xun Zhen for a while, and suddenly felt that he was ridiculous. He was not hers, so what was the adultery between her and the seventh brother?Even though his heart was extremely uncomfortable, he still suppressed that unknown emotion, and the expression on his face became even colder, "Get up, Gu will forgive you this time, but I won't make an exception."
