"What else did he ask?" When he thought of what Xiao Jiu'er had done, the anger in Emperor Xuanping's heart calmed down a lot, and he asked.
"I also asked the Emperor whether he values His Highness the Prince very much." Zhou Dafu repeated Shen Qingrong's original words, word for word.
After hearing this, Emperor Xuanping sneered at first, then thought of something, his eyebrows relaxed, and he showed a bit of a genuine smile.
He had thought that this was Xiao Jiuer's purpose to deceive Shen Qingrong.
When it comes to choosing the heir apparent, the one he prefers most is Xiao Jiuer's brother, the third prince Yu Ye.
However, since Xiao Jiuer wanted to use this to deceive Shen Qingrong, he would just cooperate.
"From now on, you should pay more attention to Yu Jin's side." Emperor Xuanping then ordered.
"Yes, I know." Zhou Dafu understood his intention and immediately responded with a smile.
Everything went smoothly today.
Yu Jiujiu returned to her yard in a happy mood, planning to take a comfortable bath later and then go to bed to rest.
However, as soon as he entered the room, he saw Pei Shuyan holding a book and sitting under the lamp, reading it carefully. He didn't know how long he had been here or how long he had been sitting there.
"Brother Imperial Master!" Yu Jiujiu immediately ran up to him with a smile and called out sweetly.
"The princess is back." When Pei Shuyan saw her, he immediately put down the book in his hand and sat there, waiting for her to come over.
Under the warm yellow candlelight, his eyebrows looked particularly gentle. Sitting upright like this, his whole person looked like a painting, which was really pleasing to the eye.
Yu Jiujiu couldn't help but his eyes curled up.
"Have you been here for a long time, Imperial Master? Do you have anything to ask for?" She jumped happily, arrived in front of Pei Shuyan, faced him, and sat down on the other side.
"Nothing happened. I just came back today. I was in a hurry in the morning. It was too hasty. I finished my work in the evening, so I came over to see the little princess." Pei Shuyan replied warmly, with a clear and low voice that was as beautiful as the sound of a piano.
"You came in the evening? Didn't you wait for a long time? Has Brother Guojun eaten?" Yu Jiujiu heard this and immediately asked with concern.
"I've eaten. Princess, aren't you visiting the Qin family today? Why did you come back after so long?" Pei Shuyan said, picking up the kettle on the table with his long, jade-like fingers, and poured a cup of tea for Yu Jiu Jiu.
Yu Jiujiu took the cup, drank it in one go.
She handed over the cup.
Seeing Pei Shuyan pouring himself another glass, he stared at the steaming mist and said in a sweet voice: "I should have come back a long time ago, but who knew that the Lou family actually asked the Lou family to kill me?
The Lou family has recruited many martial arts masters, and actually sent thirty masters to take my life."
She kept talking and told Pei Shuyan everything that happened tonight, one by one, without any concealment.
Ever since Pei Shuyan heard about what Lou had done, the murderous intention in his heart could not stop emerging.
After hearing the end, knowing that Yu Jiujiu could handle everything with ease, his murderous intention weakened a lot, and the smile poured out from the corner of his mouth.
"The princess is really smart as ice and snow. Shen Qingrong has been in the officialdom for many years and can be called a scheming one, but she is still not as good as the princess."
He couldn't help but praise.
It reminds me that Yu Jiujiu was the Demon Lord Lingfu in his previous life.
There is a rare female demon king in the world of cultivation from ancient times to the present.
Being able to secure this position will certainly not rely solely on one's own cultivation, but one must also know how to play with power and manipulate people's hearts.
It is really appropriate for her to come to the emperor's house in this life.
Now, Pei Shuyan only hopes that she will grow up quickly...
"Shen Qingrong, this is called being smart but being misled by your cleverness." Yu Jiujiu held her chin with her little hand, and tapped her cheeks twice rhythmically with her fingers, her pink little mouth and the corners of her lips showing
A hint of pride, "I drew such a big cake for him, and it still smells so good. No matter how smart he is, he can't resist such a temptation. He is a prince and prime minister, and he is a very popular minister. Isn't this exactly the kind of person he is?
The biggest, strongest desire in your heart?
"Since he did not reject me today, it means that he has made up his mind. For the cake I drew for him, he will not hesitate to turn against those who he worked with in the past, deal with the Lou family, part ways with his father-in-law Yang Xingze, and even
It is possible to abandon his wife Yang...
"Such people are cruel and cruel and only think about themselves.
"My trap is not as ruthless as his, and he wouldn't know how to jump into it!"
Yu Jiujiu is obviously like Pei Shuyan, who is well versed in the unpredictable nature of people's hearts.
Therefore, you can control it freely.
"I went back to the sect this time and got some powerful evidence against Shen Qingrong, which I have handed over to the emperor. According to the emperor, Wen Guogong has also collected a lot of evidence, but the one who has made the greatest contribution is Xiao Xiao
Princess you."
Pei Shuyan's gentle eyes turned away from the little nipple, and he held the cup in front of him with one hand and used the lid to brush the foam inside. However, he did not pick up the cup to drink tea, but said a little casually.
"Me?" Yu Jiujiu was a little surprised, "Isn't Wen Lan the hardest worker? He runs outside all day long, sometimes very late, and has to come quietly to see dad and report the investigation to dad."
"Of course Mr. Wen is working hard, but his investigation has caused some commotion, but it has not been noticed by Shen Qingrong so far. Does the princess know why?" Pei Shuyan looked at her again and asked.
"I don't know." Yu Jiu Jiu shook her little head, her voice was sweet and soft.
"Because since the emperor came, the person Shen Qingrong has been most wary of is you, the little princess." Pei Shuyan said, and chuckled involuntarily, "The things the princess did attracted all his attention, and he
I was terrified every day, fearing that the princess would do something else, so I unknowingly ignored other things."
"Hehe, if you say that, the goal of the Imperial Grandmother and I has been achieved!" Yu Jiujiu felt a little proud.
The purpose of Queen Mother Yin asking her to follow her to Xinzhou Mansion was to disturb Shen Qingrong's sight.
Sure enough, Shen Qingrong focused all his attention on her, and naturally, he ignored some of it elsewhere.
"However, this Shen Qingrong is not a fool after all. The things Wen Lan checked will alarm him sooner or later. Therefore, we cannot take it lightly. We still have to make sure measures to prevent him from jumping over the wall in a hurry." Yu Jiujiu said.
"This is natural, little princess, you can rest assured that the emperor and Duke Wen have already made complete preparations for these." Pei Shuyan said with a light smile.
"That's good!"
Yujiujiu was happy.
I sat and talked to Pei Shuyan for a while.
Seeing her yawning, Pei Shuyan thought that she was running around and working hard today, so he stood up and said goodbye: "Little princess, I will be away for a few more days tomorrow. Let me inform you in advance."
