Chapter 125

After all, lying on the bed, Xiao Jian refused to accept it and wanted to argue hard, but Xia Yebai turned around and turned his back to them. On the other side, Li Li had already walked up to him, looking like he was chasing someone away .

"My lord, when the Lotus Watching Festival is over, I will exchange my work with Ice Cube."

Xiyan ran out of the Cuizhu residence, before she could catch her breath, she saw Acacia approaching gracefully.

Seeing Xiyan, Xiangsi quickened her pace and walked up to her, with a worried look on her face: "What's wrong with the princess?"

Xiyan waved her hand, thinking of her burning face: "I drank too much water, I choked on it, the prince hasn't rested these days, just fell asleep, I was worried about disturbing him, so I ran out."

Xiyan has always been considerate to Xiaobai, although this reason is a bit far-fetched, it makes sense, and Acacia doesn't think otherwise.

"The sun is in the sky. Although it is warm, the princess should pay attention to her discomfort. Her clothes are wet. This servant will serve you and change them."

Xi Yan nodded: "I have something to do and I'm going to find you, follow me."

Xi Yan was changed into clothes by Acacia, and sat down at the table, the sun was shining outside, and the room was also very bright.

"What's the matter with the concubine looking for a servant?"

Xiangsi made a cup of tea and handed it to Xiyan. Xiyan pointed to the seat beside her and motioned for her to sit down.

"How much money can our palace give out now?"

"The last time the concubine returned home to visit her relatives, the birthday gift she gave was quite in line with the wishes of the ancestors. People prepared a lot of good things and sent them over. There were also some from the master, the wife, and the second lady, and the second lady also gave some. Concubine Li, Concubine Empress, and other concubines met, and many people gave them away, especially Concubine Li and the Empress. , about 3 taels. Although the prince is poor, he also owns a few real estates. The real estate is a bit remote. This palace is too dilapidated. Get it repaired."

Xi Yan nodded: "If those things are taken for granted, someone will definitely notice. Where is the prince's real estate? Is there any in the east of the city?"

"There is one place, but it has not been lived in for a long time. Others think it is an abandoned house that no one lives in, and I don't know if it can be lived in now."

"I want to use money recently. You pawned all the things from the second lady and the second lady. If you can afford it, you can pawn all the other people's. Let the house in the east of the city rest for a while, and the rest Give me 3000 taels of silver, if there is more, I will subsidize the palace, make some clothes for the prince, and make some men's clothes for me and Hongdou, if there are more, I will reward those in the palace servant."

Acacia was puzzled, but she didn't ask. It must be useful for her young lady to ask for those things, so she just said: "Understood, I will sort out those things when I go back, and exchange them into cash. The house in the east of the city , the servants should be sorted out as soon as possible."

Xi Yan smiled and nodded in satisfaction: "Less talk and more action. What I like most is your point. I know you have doubts in your heart. You are cautious. If you entrust the affairs of the palace to you, I will not worry about it." Don't worry about the future, as for Hongdou, I want to take her out to see the world and exercise, you go down first, I'll go and see the prince."

Xiangsi lowered her head, stood up, tightly intertwined her hands, and did not leave.

"What's the matter, just say it."

Xiangsi pursed her lips tightly, and her face became a little embarrassed: "Mr. Li fell from the east gate, and now he is half dead. The roots of the fifth prince's descendants were cut off. The imperial court felt ashamed and asked the officials to investigate this matter."

"what?"

Xiyan stood up excitedly, her expression unchanged, she bumped into the teacup beside her, only to hear a bang, the cup fell to the ground, scattered, and the tea splashed everywhere.

"During the time when the princess was in a coma, Concubine Lan asked you to enter the palace several times, but was beaten back by the prince, and the slaves also felt strange. That night, the princess obviously only tied the fifth prince and Mr. Li to the city wall, but the second On the second day, such things happened, and the entire Chaoyang City fell apart."

Xiyan took a deep breath, not feeling how cruel this method was, if she hadn't had any scruples, she would have done the same, but she has no power or power, and she went there again for what happened that night, if it really made a fuss If someone dies, Xiaobai will definitely be dragged down, so he endured the cruelty and hung the special code on the city wall, which is only a small punishment and a big warning. If this matter is publicized, then she will only suffer from being dumb, but now, someone is the first to do what she wants to do.

"Do you know who did it?"

Xiangsi shook her head: "I don't know."

After saying that, Xi Yan sat on the table, couldn't help but think about the matter of Xia Chen's traditional Chinese medicine last time, and frowned involuntarily. Li Jianhui and Xia Junchi, there is a connection between these two things. Who did it?Whether it was related to her, or because those two committed too many evils, they ended up like this.

A thought flashed through her mind, her expression changed drastically, and she shook her head: "It's not him."

"not him."

Xiangsi couldn't help being startled seeing Xiyan like this, and shouted in panic: "Princess."

Xiyan recovered her senses and looked at her, and waved her hand: "Go down first, quickly deal with the things I ordered, and then let Hongdou arrange for me to meet with the Liu family, and teach Hongdou when she has time, let her do things differently." So reckless."

"What happened to the princess?"

Xiangsi showed concern, and seemed a little worried.

"It's okay, you go down first, and deal with the things I arranged."

Xiangsi hesitated for a moment, blessed her body, turned and left.

Xiangsi had just left, Xiyan got up suddenly, and ran back to Cuizhuju, the sun was shining outside, and the room was quiet and warm, Xiyan stood by the bed, looking at Xia Yebai on the bed, her eyes were very complicated.

I found a place by the bed and sat down, covered him with the quilt again, and looked at him quietly, but those eyes lacked the gentleness of the past, and were a little more vigilant and probing, and the fingers gently slid across his face. face, murmured: "Xia Yebai, are you lying to me again?"

The voice was low, like dream language, but it cut through his heart like a knife.

After a rain more than a month ago, the weather has been very good recently, the sun is bright and bright, the wind is breezy, the weather has suddenly become much warmer, and it seems that summer is really coming soon.

Early in the morning, there are men and women on the street, people come and go, vendors shouting endlessly, and the shops on both sides have been open for business, interweaving into a picture of flowers blooming like brocade.

The breeze blows, and the hair around the ears dances in the air. The young man with a face like a jade crown is dressed in brocade clothes, but his attire is extremely simple. He only wears a bright red blood jade around his waist. It is hard to find at a glance. The first-class goods, on the blood jade, the snow lotus is in full bloom, the gorgeous color has no impurities, and under the sunlight, it becomes more and more crystal clear and coquettish, attracting the attention of many passers-by, their eyes move up, and they can't help but suffocate.
