Miss Wen San was startled by her guess, and just stared blankly at the person opposite her, watching his every move.
But his mind couldn't help but think of the rumors outside.
In fact, I have been with the British father-in-law for too long during this period, and I don't pay attention to anything outside. I don't even respond to news from my parents' family, and I don't pay attention to those messy news.
They simply ignored the news that Princess Huimin fell into the water and died.
It was only at this moment that she dug out the news from the corner of her memory.
How could it be such a coincidence?
Even though she was usually very simple-minded and didn't think too much, she realized the problem at this time.
"you……"
Princess Huimin looked at her with a half-smile, then put a finger on her lips and blew out a breath gently.
Miss Wen San's next words immediately stuck in her throat, and then she swallowed them, not daring to say more.
Compared with her nervousness and caution at this time, Princess Huimin seemed too calm and leisurely, "Cousin, now we have a common secret!
Even if it’s for our Wen family, you have to help keep this matter a secret!”
The tone is a bit childish and frivolous. If you listen to it on weekdays, you will definitely find it very cute. But at this time, all Miss Wen San feels is fear.
But soon she thought of another question.
I don't have much social interaction in the capital on weekdays. Even the few playmates I had a good time with in the past have all gone their separate ways.
Not to mention that after getting married, he basically never went out. The people he talked to the most were the British parents-in-law.
Why would I be summoned to the palace like this?
And let her face such a secret?
What exactly does Princess Huimin want to do?
"Are you wondering why I invited you here?"
Princess Huimin seemed to have read through her thoughts and immediately asked back.
Miss Wen San hesitated for a moment, then nodded honestly, "Please let me know."
"There's nothing that can't be said, and it's not something that's difficult to guess," Princess Huimin's slender fingers gently touched the tabletop on the side table, and then her whole posture became more relaxed, as if
She seemed to be burying herself in the chair, "I'm just curious about the past."
"I wonder what the Crown Princess wants to know?"
These words made Miss Wen San even more confused. What happened in the past?
She used to be just a good girl who didn't go out much. How could she know what happened in the past? But with Princess Huimin's strength, she could find out everything she knew with just a little effort.
"I heard that the relationship between you and your British father-in-law is not bad?"
Huimin picked up a cup on the side, took a sip of something unknown, and then asked with a smile.
I have to say that beauties are beauties, even if they are all women. When Princess Huimin smiled like this, Miss Wen San found that she felt that she couldn't find Bei.
"My mother has an easy-going temperament and treats me very well."
Miss Wen San's voice is soft and weak, making her sound very delicate.
Princess Huimin smiled and said: "You don't have to be so nervous. I have already said that we are cousins. How come you are so open to outsiders between sisters?"
Can I stay out of sight?
You are Princess Huimin, Miss Wen San muttered in her heart, but she only thought so in her heart, but she said with a smile: "Princess, please don't misunderstand me, I have been such a quiet person since I was a child.
My reluctance to talk is not because I am out of touch with my empress."
"That's pretty much it," Huimin said with a smile, as if she really believed her words, "In that case, I might as well say it straight, you have a good relationship with the British Duke's wife, but have you listened to the Duke's wife?
Speaking of Concubine Ye from before?"
"Ah?" Miss Wen San was a little surprised by her question. After taking a closer look, she saw that she didn't look like she was joking, so she considered it and said, "The concubine Ye in front was raised by her mother. Mother and Ye
Concubine Ye loves mother and daughter. After Concubine Ye passed away, my mother was really sad, so she often mourned her in the house. I... I naturally heard her talk about it. "
"Oh!" Princess Huimin nodded slowly, "So that's it. Then have you ever heard Madam talk about how Concubine Ye chose to commit suicide?"
This question really startled Miss Wen San again.
Although many people know that Ye Jinxi committed suicide by hanging, suicide is taboo in the royal family. Not only are ordinary concubines not allowed to end their own lives at will, but even doing so will involve the father and brother of her mother's family.
Seen as a huge disrespect to the royal family.
The situation at that time was a bit special. After all, the death of the former crown princess was also very dishonorable. It happened directly in front of hundreds of civil and military officials and under so many pairs of eyes.
Therefore, Ye Jinxi's death was vaguely explained.
Therefore, everyone knew in their hearts that it was the same thing, but no one mentioned it publicly.
But the new crown princess in front of her directly told the matter openly.
How could Miss Wen San not be afraid? Not only was she afraid, but she was also terrified. She didn't know what her purpose was.
"The empress is joking," she could only reply bravely, "After the concubine entered the palace, she rarely contacted her family. Even the mother only occasionally exchanged letters. She didn't have much information about the concubine's affairs in the palace.
We know it very well, and we don’t dare to inquire about it at will, so we really don’t know about this matter.”
"Look," the smile on Princess Huimin's face never faded, but it was just a fake smile, and there was no real smile in her eyes, "Who on earth said that the Wen family
The third girl can't speak, so aren't these few words very good?
According to me, my mother-in-law is really too careful. Cousin, you obviously have your talents, but you have to be rumored like this, so there is no need to hide your clumsiness!"
Miss Wen San was about to burst into tears. There was such a powerful person sitting across from her, but she didn't know the other person's thoughts at all. She could only be led by the other person's nose during the conversation. How could she not be nervous.
She had no choice but to say: "Your Majesty, I'm joking, I'm just telling the truth, but do you have any questions?
If it's convenient, you might as well tell me directly, and I'll ask my mother when I get back. If my mother knows, she won't hide anything."
Huimin's fingers were tapping the tabletop of the short table gently again, "I heard that the British princess also came, and now she went to Jiang Liangdi's place?"
