When Jiang Shuhua came back from the prince's study, she was in a very bad mood.
She originally wanted to see if she could drive a wedge between the prince and Xiao Yu. After all, everyone thought that it was because Emperor Yufeng doted on Xiao Yu that the prince, the third prince and others fawned over him so much.
At the moment, it seems that is not the case.
The third prince might have been like this at the time, but the prince was clearly afraid of the so-called chance.
Is it really feasible to just bypass Xiao Yu and deal with Xie Songhua?
perhaps……
She should find other helpers.
Moreover, she was really uneasy about the third prince's wife and children.
Naturally, she was not the one who knew the most about the affairs of the third prince's backyard, but the prince definitely had spies in the third prince's palace.
Such a talk about an extramarital affair and a child came out of nowhere, and she couldn't help but think of it in her own mind.
Is it possible that the third prince has talked about himself to others before?
If the prince really knew that Sister Yuan was the third prince's child, then her life would be over.
Jiang Shuhua shuddered violently.
no!
She must find a way, she must find a way.
Her current life was hard earned, and it seemed that when the prince ascended the throne, she would be able to sit on the position of fourth concubine.
And she is very confident, and with her own methods, it will not be difficult for the prince to make her a noble concubine.
She can't fall here.
After thinking about it, she suddenly remembered someone.
"Isn't Concubine Ye feeling better yet?"
Xizhu didn't know why she suddenly thought of Ye Jinxi, and said quickly: "I heard from the maid in Concubine Ye's courtyard that she is still ill and has no energy."
"After such a long time, she is still so wilted, which shows that she is really seriously ill. Anyway, the Xie family and the Ye family used to have a really good relationship, and she has a higher status than me, so I also
You should go and visit."
Jiang Shuhua said, with a soft smile on her face, and went directly to Ye Jinxi.
She was stopped at the door. Although the maid at the door had a respectful tone, her attitude was very firm, "Our concubine is really not feeling well. She is still lying on the bed right now. Jiang Liangdi might as well come back in two days."
Bar!"
Jiang Shuhua glanced behind her, and saw a stout maid walking over with a smile, but with a little effort, she pushed the palace maid who was blocking them away with a smile.
Jiang Shuhua then drove straight to Ye Jinxi's bedroom.
"Sister Ye's temperament is really cool. We have known each other before, and we entered the palace together. If you are not feeling well, why are you so out of touch with your sister?"
As soon as Ye Jinxi saw her, her face turned pale. She gritted her teeth and said, "I told you, I'm not in good health and I don't want to see guests. What do you mean?"
"What else could it mean?" The smile on Jiang Shuhua's face remained undiminished, "His Highness has not seen my sister for so long. She has mentioned it several times. Didn't she always say "sister" and "I am your Highness's interpreter?"
Under such circumstances, how can we not make a trip for His Highness and come over to visit my sister?"
As she said this, she was suddenly surprised, "Oh, it seems like she is really sick! Why is her face so ugly? It's easy to think too much in this disease. No, my sister came here specially to chat with her, and she can get some relief.
Don’t you understand?”
As if she didn't see Ye Jinxi's resistance, Jiang Shuhua directly asked Xizhu to take everyone in the room out.
Ye Jinxi immediately wanted to call them out, but she heard Jiang Shuhua say in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Sister Ye saw it that day, right? Why were you so frightened that you returned to your parents' home?"
Ye Jinxi's voice got stuck in her throat at this sentence, and her eyes widened as she looked at the woman in front of her.
Jiang Shuhua turned her face and said with a smile: "Everyone, go down! Can I still eat your master? It's just a small talk, right, Sister Ye?"
Ye Jinxi did not say a word, and several of her serving maids could not be forced to stay.
They were the only two people left in the room.
"Sister Ye seems to be very scared!" Jiang Shuhua took a peach from the table next to her and carefully wiped the fluff on it with the handkerchief in her hand.
Is it because of this incident?”
Ye Jinxi quietly squeezed the sheets underneath, and after a while she said in a hoarse voice: "I don't know what you are talking about, something like that happened that day, but you were not here, but I witnessed everything with my own eyes.
, so many people died, right under my nose, I...
I'm timid and really scared, and my aunt happened to be there too, so I just followed..."
"So, has Sister Ye told the good sister who lost her bag with me about this matter?" Jiang Shuhua interrupted her in a rather careless tone without giving her a chance to finish.
Ye Jinxi almost denied it outright, but her reason stopped her in time. She raised her head with some confusion in her eyes, "Princess Chen was there at the time, and she also saw how those people fell.
"
"Okay!" Jiang Shuhua put the cleaned peach to the tip of her nose and smelled it, as if she was very satisfied with the peach scent, and then gently patted Ye Jinxi's shoulder, "Sister Ye, don't be so nervous. In fact,
What you saw is not a secret."
Ye Jinxi was shocked by these words, but she resisted showing any surprise and still looked like she didn't understand what she said.
"Actually, both His Highness and the Crown Princess knew about it. I went over and told them that day. I don't know how much you heard while hiding there that day. In fact, I had no choice. He threatened me with my daughter that day.
And in such a chaotic time.
I'm really scared! What if he sees his defeat, thinks about me being favored by His Highness, and thinks about taking revenge on me and Sister Yuan?"
Jiang Shuhua took Ye Jinxi's hand. Seeing that her fingers were cold, she felt more confident, but her face looked pitiful, "Sister Ye, can you understand me?"
Ye Jinxi gritted her teeth and was speechless.
"Sister Ye," Jiang Shuhua simply leaned forward a little further, "Actually, you don't have to be afraid. I have been reading and writing since I was a child. Although I can't say that I am rich in knowledge, I also know etiquette, justice and integrity.
My young father-in-law was once my classmate. Do you think I am a cruel and ruthless person who doesn’t take human life seriously? If I had not been forced to do anything, I would not have been able to do it. What’s more, you were
It’s impossible for those who were there not to see that I didn’t do it on purpose, right?”
When she said this, her eyes were completely innocent and simple, but all her attention was on the subtle changes in Ye Jinxi's eyebrows.
Therefore, she immediately knew that Ye Jinxi had indeed heard a lot of things that she should not have heard, and it was not just as simple as accidentally witnessing her murder.
At this time, Ye Jinxi could clearly feel the warmth coming from the opponent's palm, but she didn't feel any warmth in her heart. Instead, she felt as if she was wrapped by a poisonous snake.
She tried her best to control her expression and voice, and finally said in a steady voice: "I really don't know what Jiang Liangdi is talking about, but everyone lives in this harem, and everyone has their own involuntariness and the need to survive.
road."
When Jiang Shuhua heard this, she narrowed her eyes slightly, as if she was very interested, "Oh?"
Seeing her reaction like this, Ye Jinxi felt much relieved, and what she said later became much smoother, "They say Jiang Liangdi is His Highness's interpreter, and she has a bright future. I had no intention of entering the palace from the beginning, and now I am in the East Palace."
It's just fate, but no matter what, I don't think we will make things difficult for each other."
Having said this, Ye Jinxi's meaning is very obvious.
Jiang Shuhua did not achieve her goal. The smile on her face remained undiminished, but what she said made Ye Jinxi go to the ice cellar, "Sister Ye may not know that after I told His Highness about this matter, all the subsequent and final matters will be
Your Highness helped me do this in order to completely disconnect this matter from the East Palace.
Tell me, if His Highness knew that Sister Ye was also at the scene that day and witnessed all this without saying anything, and even hid in the British Gonggong Mansion after that, what would His Highness think in his heart?"
