Chapter 42
The more he was like this, the deeper the suspicion in Ji Youran's heart.He quickly stood up: "Tell me honestly, who has the prince ever been harmed by? When?"

Eunuch Ping shut his mouth tightly, lowered his head and remained silent.Ji Youran continued to press, but he still didn't say anything.

Feeling anxious and angry, Ji Youran strode up to him: "If you don't say anything, be careful that I will be rude to you!"

"Princess." Looking up at her, Eunuch Ping's expression was unprecedentedly calm, "There are some things that this old slave doesn't want to say, but that I really can't say it now. You just have to believe that the prince is safe now, and that this old slave is by your side." , with you here, we will protect the prince together, and no one will harm him again."

In other words, he was really murdered!Ji Youran felt a pain in her heart: "When exactly? Who?"

Eunuch Ping shook his head: "The old slave can't say that."

"You really don't say it?"

"I really can't say."

"Is it impossible to say, or is the person who harmed him related to you at all?"

As soon as these words came out, Eunuch Ping's body trembled suddenly!Ji Youran's heart also sank: "Could it be true?"

Eunuch Ping raised his head slowly: "Princess, there are some things that I can't explain in a few words. If you really want to know, then the old servant dare not hide it from you. But, please find out the spies sent by the empress first, and wait for them to be arrested." If you find out, I will tell you something honestly, and I will never lie to you."

"Really?" To tell the truth, Ji Youran was reluctant to believe his words: this old man is just an old fox.She is very smooth in speaking and doing things, and she suffered a lot from him in her previous life.In this life, it was thanks to her that she kept Feng Yuming tied by her side so that she survived.Today, it was hard to catch him a little bit, and this guy was willing to humiliate her.However, if he is so easily let go this time, who knows what he will do next time?
"Let's talk about it. As long as the old slave insists on not speaking, even if you force the old slave to death, the old slave will never confide a word."

look!Before she said anything, the old man had already started to threaten her.Ji Youran gritted her teeth angrily: "Okay!" Now, she has no other choice but to do this, "I won't force you today. But, in the future, I will have to decide everything about the prince and the palace. , you are not allowed to be obedient and disobedient, and you are not allowed to trip me!"

"Yes, this old slave will definitely look up to you, Princess, and assist you in everything." Eunuch Ping quickly kowtowed, his tone really respectful.

However, Ji Youran was getting more and more bored, and really wanted to kick him out!
When Feng Yuming woke up, he found that Ji Youran was sitting in front of the bed, looking at him deeply.

Her expression...how should I put it?It was a little deep, but also a little sad, a little pity, and it made question marks pop out of his head one after another.

"Aifei." Rubbing his eyes, he whispered, "I'm hungry."

"Oh, I see." Only then did she regain her senses, Ji Youran squeezed out a faint smile, and personally helped him get up and get dressed.

Dinner was ready soon, and while the two of them were eating, Ji Youran seemed to mention it unintentionally: "My lord, how much do you remember about the past?"

"whats the matter?"

"About the mother concubine Chen Fei, and did anyone bully you when you were young, did the mother empress ever feel sorry for your mother and son?"

"Oh, this one, I don't remember!" Feng Yuming stuck out his tongue, and answered very readily.Did he dare to answer more simply?Ji Youran almost grabbed the ground with his head.But think about it, this guy has such an optimistic personality and is so stupid, how could he remember so much?She was too eager to get it done.

"However." After a pause, Feng Yuming thought of something again, "I remember that when I was a child, my health was very bad, and I was always bedridden for recuperation. My mother and concubine were often by my side. It’s very gentle, and it’s also very good at making pastries! It’s as delicious as yours, Aifei!”

I see.Ji Youran nodded, it's no wonder she pulled him into her camp so quickly this time, it's because of her feelings.

"And..." Then Feng Yuming lowered his volume again, "I still remember that my concubine loves to cry a lot, especially when feeding me medicine and cakes, she often cries while feeding me. Crying and crying Then, he threw down his things and hugged me and cried loudly. That’s right! This king remembered! One time when I woke up from sleep, I saw her sitting there blankly, staring at a plate of freshly baked pastries in a daze. , I was hungry, so I ran over to pick up a piece and stuffed it into my mouth. However, she immediately slapped me hard and slapped the pastry on the ground. Her face was so ugly at that time that I almost cried Yes. But before she could cry, she started to cry first, and hugged me tightly, saying that she was sorry for him, that she didn't do it on purpose or something. "

"What do you mean it wasn't intentional?" Hearing what he said in a mess, Ji Youran was suspicious and his mind was in a mess.Wan Teng Ning Fan spread his hands, "I don't know either! My biggest impression of my mother is that she loves to cry, and there are more!" Suddenly his eyes lit up, and he looked at Ji Youran with a smile, "Mother Before the concubine passed away, she held the king's hand and asked the king to listen to the emperor's grandmother carefully. If he meets a girl he likes in the future, he must cherish her and love her, and don't let anyone bully her..."

"My lord!" As he was talking, why did he switch to this topic?Ji Youran's cheeks had a fever, so he quickly put a piece of meat into his bowl, "Let's eat!"

"Oh." With the meat in his hands, Feng Yuming immediately changed his mind, and started eating with great relish.The doubts in Ji Youran's heart were getting deeper and deeper. Looking at the silly prince in front of her, she sighed.It seems that we still have to find another way.

The next day, taking advantage of the opportunity of the couple entering the palace to meet the Empress Dowager, she stayed beside the Empress Dowager, serving tea and water graciously.The empress dowager was very happy to be coaxed by her, so she beckoned her to sit down: "The Ai family sees something in your eyes, what's the matter, tell me!"

"Actually, it's not an important matter. I just want to know that the prince seemed to have suffered from a serious illness for a long time. Since he recovered from the illness, he has become what he is now, but what happened to him at that time Ill? I asked Eunuch Ping and the others, but they couldn't explain clearly." With a smile on his face, Ji Youran said word by word.

As soon as this remark came out, the smile on the Empress Dowager's face froze.

With a slight shake of the hand, the teacup fell back onto the coffee table with a bang.The old man immediately stopped talking, didn't even dare to look her in the eyes, and only said in a low voice: "It's all in the past, why mention it? As long as King Yi is safe and sound now?"

It must be a big deal to make her old man so flustered.It seems that her guess was right.The more Ji Youran saw her like this, the more Ji Youran couldn't let her go, and said again: "I just want to know the truth of the matter. After all, the prince has been ill for so long, but so far there is no explanation. Moreover, he also said Concubine Chen was crying when she was taking care of him, heartbroken—"
