The psychic princess is cute and sassy

"Now that there are such rumors between you, who knows whether Fan'er will deceive me for you?" Concubine Shu was obviously skeptical about what she said.

Lu Zhaozhao seemed to have expected that she would have doubts, and was not in a hurry: "If Concubine Shu is afraid that the prince will protect the slave, she can also ask the emperor in person!"

Seeing her calm and composed look, Concubine Shu was a little unsure for a moment whether what she said was true or false: "Even if what you said is true, there are many useful talents in the court, so why should you be an outsider?" Intervene?"

"What Concubine Shu said is that there are as many people in the imperial court who are smarter and wiser than the slaves as there are crucian carp crossing the river. The slaves cannot compare, and what the prince needs is not the intelligence and wisdom of the slaves. What the prince needs, It’s a slave’s ability to read faces!” Lu Zhaozhao’s thoughts were clear and he said without being humble or arrogant: “I believe that Concubine Shu has heard about it for a long time. Some time ago, the young prince was framed!”

"What do you want to say?" Concubine Shu asked.

This matter caused quite a stir in the city at that time, so naturally she had heard about it!

"Then I wonder if Concubine Shu knows who saved the young prince?" Lu Zhaozhao asked without replying.

"I heard that it was a slave next to Fan'er who first discovered the strangeness of the young prince, so he followed the clues and found out Liu Qing'er. The eldest princess even rewarded her with many things for this!" Concubine Shu said lightly with her red lips, He looked her up and down with a scrutinizing gaze: "Do you want to say that this person is you?"

"It's the slave!" Lu Zhaozhao said: "That day was the eldest princess's birthday party. The slave accidentally glanced at the eldest princess and saw that the face of the eldest princess was different, so he asked to see the young prince, and then discovered that the young prince was being used in a deceitful way. , trapped one soul and one soul, resulting in a long period of drowsiness, and may endanger life at any time. It was the slave who took action in time and saved the life of the young prince. If the slave had not accidentally discovered it that day, the eldest princess would have been afraid at this moment. I have long since lost my beloved son!”

"What does this have to do with you cooperating with Fan'er to solve the case?" Concubine Shu raised her lower lip coldly: "Are you trying to say that you can see the real culprit behind the case with just one pair of eyes?"

"With just one pair of eyes, although the servant cannot directly see the real culprit behind the scenes, he can see clues from their faces, thus helping the prince to speed up the progress of solving the case!" Lu Zhaozhao said with reason.

"Really?" Concubine Shu raised her hand and played with her long nails: "Then tell me, what do you see in my face now?"

"Killing intent!" Lu Zhaozhao said truthfully.

Concubine Shu played with her nails and paused slightly: "You are sincere!"

"Thank you, Concubine Shu!" Lu Zhaozhao naturally knew that she didn't really want to praise her, but deliberately pretended to be confused: "From the beginning to the end, what the prince needs is the slave's ability to read faces. The slave stayed by his side and treated him carefully, just because he was afraid that if he made a mistake, the case of corruption in the construction of the Lingnan river embankment would become an unsolved case, and the innocent people who died in Lingnan would never get a fair explanation! "

Upon hearing this, Concubine Shu looked at her silently.

Lu Zhaozhao's mind changed slightly, and he spoke again: "I would like to ask Concubine Shu to tell you clearly that the prince keeps this slave by his side purely for the needs of the case and has never been mixed with any other emotions!"

"Do you think that if you say this, I will let you go?" Concubine Shu turned around, walked back to the high seat and sat down.

Lu Zhaozhao's heart sank slightly. Although he had already guessed that she would not let her go easily, he did not expect that she would not hide it.

"You have ruined Fan'er's reputation, and you are absolutely to blame for your death!" Concubine Shu's eyes became even colder.

Lu Zhaozhao's mind turned quickly and he said: "I know that I have a humble status. Concubine Shu wants to kill me, but it is as simple as squeezing an ant to death. However, my life is also tied to the lives of the innocent people in Lingnan." Justice, I wonder if Concubine Shu feels that the justice of those innocent people in Lingnan is insignificant?"

"Are you threatening me?" Concubine Shu violently swept the teacup off the table.

The moment the tea cup hit the ground, it fell into pieces.

The splashing debris flew past Lu Zhaozhao's arm.

"I don't dare! I just don't want Concubine Shu to let the real culprit go free out of anger!" Lu Zhaozhao said. Hearing this, Concubine Shu sneered coldly: "I don't believe it. Without you, with Fan'er's ability, I wouldn't be able to find out the real culprit behind the scenes?"

"Even though the prince has extraordinary abilities, there are some things that cannot be solved by ability alone!" Seeing her face completely sinking, Lu Zhaozhao hurriedly said: "Before Concubine Shu deals with the slaves, why not verify the slaves first? If your ability, if it is the slave’s ability, can catch the eye of Empress Shu, please spare my life!”

"Okay! Then I want to take a closer look at how powerful your self-confidence is?" Concubine Shu raised the corners of her lips, but the smile did not reach her eyes: "If you can get into my eyes, I can consider keeping you alive for the time being, if not..."

The remaining words, although not stated clearly, are all in silence!

"Thank you, Concubine Shu!" Lu Zhaozhao kowtowed and thanked her.

"Tell me! How do you want to prove your ability?" Concubine Shu glanced at her for a moment.

Lu Zhaozhao's eyes fell on her confidant, the palace maid Dongqing: "I have the guts to show my aunt her palm!"

When Dongqing heard this, her questioning eyes fell on her master.

Concubine Shu raised her chin slightly and signaled: "Go ahead! I want to see what she can tell?"

"Yes!" Dongqing responded, taking three steps and then two steps to reach Lu Zhaozhao.

Lu Zhaozhao knelt down and said, "Auntie, please spread your palms!"

Dongqing's palm, which was about to be opened, stretched out in front of her.

Lu Zhaozhao raised his hand and held her fingertips.

In an instant, what had happened within the past twelve hours and what would happen within the next twelve hours flashed rapidly in her mind.

Lu Zhaozhao's tense emotions completely relaxed the moment he discovered her memory.

"Auntie reprimanded three maids in total yesterday. One maid was because the water stains outside the palace were not cleaned up when sweeping, one was because she accidentally spilled some soup when serving food, and the last one was The palace maid bumped into her aunt while walking!" Lu Zhaozhao said as he retracted his fingertips.

There was a look of shock in Dongqing's eyes.

He is a foreigner, even if he has some skills, he should not know about the harem, and he knows it so clearly!

Is it...

Is this really what you can see from her palms?

"Holly! Is what she said true?" Concubine Shu asked.

Such trivial matters as scolding a palace maid would naturally not be brought up in front of her on weekdays!

So, she didn't know whether what she said was true or false?
