Chapter 165
Du Yingying was carrying the meal and approached cautiously.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she approached, Cheng Xu's face darkened, and he raised his hand and overturned the meal in her hand.

Almost all the hot soup was spilled on Du Yingying's body, and she turned pale from the heat. Even so, she didn't care about it, and just knelt down with a bang, her body trembling.

Cheng Xu bent down, stretched out his hand to pinch her chin, and asked with dark eyes, "I ask you, when you had a miscarriage and framed Xu Fengmi, who was behind your back?"

Du Yingying's body trembled violently, her eyes were red, and she said: "What is the meaning of this, my lord? Could it be that I suspect that my concubine is framing her?"

"Have you framed her? Don't you know?" Cheng Xu sneered, let go of her, and took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands: "You really treat me like a coward who doesn't know anything?"

Du Yingying clutched her dress tightly, trying to steady her mind: "Could it be that the prince didn't doubt it back then? Why did you come to doubt the concubine now?"

Cheng Xu threw the used handkerchief on her body, and looked down at her: "Who said that the king didn't doubt you at the beginning?"

Du Yingying raised her eyes suddenly and looked at Cheng Xu in disbelief.

"After all, who is the person behind you?" Cheng Xu sat down.

Du Yingying lowered her eyes again, and at this moment she basically recovered her composure: "I don't know what the prince is talking about."

"If you don't know, then procrastinate, kill and feed the dogs." After Cheng Xu finished speaking, he stood up and told his confidants, "Do as I say."

The confidant looked hesitant.After all, Du Yingying is an old man in Zhennan Palace.

"My lord!" Du Yingying's face turned pale with fright, she hurriedly grabbed Cheng Xu's clothes, and begged bitterly, "I beg your lord, please let me go!"

Cheng Xu looked back at her: "Since you said that, did you admit it?"

Du Yingying bit her lips to bleed: "It's just that the concubine was obsessed with ghosts and framed her by means of the inner house, but there is no one behind the concubine, and no one instructed the concubine."

Cheng Xu snorted coldly: "Is it stupid for you to be my king? If there is no one behind you, you dare to deal with Xu Fengmi like this? No matter how bad she is, she is also the concubine my king is marrying. You don't have the courage to attack her .”

"I" Du Yingying couldn't stop crying when she thought of her mother and sister who were being held hostage.

Cheng Xu raised his chin slightly: "This king will give you one last chance."

Du Yingying cried into tears, but refused to speak.

The only sound in the room was her weeping. Cheng Xu stared at her for a while, then suddenly asked, "Is the person behind you Xu Fengruo?"

Du Yingying almost couldn't stabilize her body, she thought she didn't show her feet, but Cheng Xu knew it well.

Cheng Xu took one last look at her and left with a flick of his sleeves.

On this day, the sun was shining brightly, Ruan Chulian passed a post to Xu Fengmi, and made an appointment to meet at Zhenfenglou.

"Just the two of us?" Xu Fengmi sat down with a sigh of relief.

Ruan Chulian sat across from her, and nodded weakly: "I also posted to Xiaoqi, but she refused to come out because she didn't want to come out."

Xu Fengmi smiled: "Aren't you annoyed?"

"If you don't want to, don't think about it. What's the matter? Let's make an appointment next time."

"If you were someone else, she would make a lot of excuses." Xu Fengmi smiled and shook her head: "I sometimes ask her out, and she also bluntly said that she doesn't want to go out."

"That's right." Ruan Chulian said, "Who wants to go out in such a cold day?"

"Then why are you looking for me today?"

Ruan Chulian played with the cup in her hand, her eyes drifted a little: "I just think the weather is good today, and I want to ask you out to meet and have tea or something."

Xu Fengmi raised her eyebrows: "Xiaoqi treats you honestly, but you hesitate to talk to me, what's the reason?"

"Oh." Ruan Chulian lay on the table and said sullenly, "Li Yue said, if I don't come out, he will go to Ruan Mansion to find me."

Xu Fengmi was surprised: "He is such a person? Why is he different from the Li Shizi I know?"

Ruan Chulian snorted: "I told you, he's just a tiger with a smile on his face, he's not a good person at all, and he's full of bad things."

Xu Fengmi smiled sullenly.

"Yo, who is this?" A frivolous voice sounded, Xu Fengmi heard it and looked, while Ruan Chulian frowned.

The two didn't want a private room, but sat down in the lobby by the window.

A young girl in a long jacket of water-red carved silk came over. She was very imposing, either rich or expensive, with a bit of arrogance in her eyes.

Xu Fengmi guessed her identity at a glance.

I haven't seen her at ordinary banquets, so she must be from the palace, maybe it's another princess.

The girl approached, she looked at Xu Fengmi for a moment, and said generously: "Are you Xu Fengmi, the daughter of Xu's parents? It's really a big deal to make a kiss."

Princess Danyang is the daughter of the current imperial concubine.She is much loved, and she is the jewel in the palm of today's emperor, but she seldom goes out of the palace, and she doesn't like to go to banquets very much, and there are almost no people who make good friends with her.

Xu Fengmi stood up: "I have seen His Highness."

Ruan Chulian also got up and saluted Cheng Danyang.

Cheng Danyang took a seat beside Xu Fengmi: "You don't mind my interruption, do you?"

Xu Fengmi saw that she had already sat down, what else could she say.

Ruan Chulian is not used to her: "You sit down and ask, isn't this done on purpose? It's really inexplicable."

Cheng Danyang smiled: "You didn't say you didn't mind, so I'll sit down."

She looked at Ruan Chulian for a moment, then raised her eyebrows and said, "Why do you feel a little depressed? Are you not happy to be engaged to Li Yue?"

"What are you doing?"

Cheng Danyang prepared a set of tea sets by herself, and after the servant girl poured out the tea for her, she took a sip and said unhurriedly: "Come and listen to the truth. After I hear it, maybe I'll go to it if I'm happy." I'll do you a favor by speaking for you."

Ruan Chulian sneered: "Could it be possible that my marriage is a joke? It's so funny! It's rare for you to leave the palace today with such a noble body."

Cheng Danyang: "It's not interesting to stay in the palace all the time, so I thought about going out for a stroll, and I met you two unexpectedly."

She turned to look at Xu Fengmi: "Miss Xu, does Miss Ruan know the pain in her heart?"

Xu Fengmi said: "The pain, only you can experience it, others can't understand it."

Cheng Danyang snorted lightly: "You clearly know Miss Ruan's thoughts, but you look around and talk about him. Presumably, you don't pay attention to me as a princess, right? The Xu family is a small family, if I didn't see you and my ninth uncle I have a marriage contract, so I am too lazy to sit down and talk to you."

Xu Fengmi: "Then please be more diligent, Your Highness, and don't sit down and talk to me."

"You!" Cheng Danyang was blocked by her, and he had no words to refute, with annoyed expression on his face.

"Something happened, something happened!" Someone ran into the teahouse with an excited look on his face: "Nan Wang intends to rebel, the evidence is solid, and he has been detained now! And Nan Wang's mansion is in chaos right now, I don't know what crime he will be sentenced to."
