A deep black color appeared at the entrance of the Jinxiu House. Amongst the servants, Chu Yixuan's body was tall and cold, his lips were pursed tightly as he scanned through the room with his brows slightly knitted.
Bi Su bowed, "Your Highness."
"What happened to the Jinxiu House?" Chu Yixuan's voice was ice-cold, it did not sound like he was here to offer his concern, but instead, it sounded like he was interrogating Xu Rouzhi.
Xu Rouzhi slowly got off the bed, wrapped herself in the fur coat and looked at Sang Woruo. Sang Woruo took a step forward and spoke first, "It's great that the wangfei is fine! Those assassins are pretty skilled, they didn't do anything to the wangfei, right? "
Xu Rouzhi pretended to be surprised. "So Mrs. Sang knew about the assassin coming from Jinxiu House?"
Sang Woruo looked at Chu Yixuan: "Those assassins attacked my Huaxiu House first, and happened to be patrolling the house, maybe because they were afraid, they retreated. I immediately reported the news to my Royal Highness, I just found out that an assassin came to visit Jinxiu House. "
"Where is the assassin?" Chu Yixuan asked with a frown.
Tsk, he actually asked where the assassin was! Did they mean that she had hidden the assassin!?
Xu Rouzhi did not expect Chu Yixuan to be so kind. In any case, both Sang Woruo and Chu Yixuan knew about Bi Su sending the assassin away, and if she did not admit it, it would only end with her being arrogant.
She smiled faintly, lowered her eyes and looked at her hands, "Your highness and Mrs. Sang are really kind. I thought that no one would care about the life and death of Princess Qi!"
"What are you saying?" Chu Yixuan patted Xu Rouzhi's shoulder, "Wangfei is the personal decision of the emperor, how can there be anyone who doesn't care about the life and death of Wangfei."
Xu Rouzhi laughed: "That's for the best!"
Sang Woruo looked at Chu Yixuan and Xu Rouzhi who were standing shoulder to shoulder, and could not help but feel hatred in his heart!
"Could it be that nothing happened in the Jinxiu House?" Sang Woruo predicted that the reason Bi Su hid her identity was to help Eastern Palace, so Xu Rouzhi would definitely not admit to the fact that Bi Su knew martial arts.
Xu Rouzhi's gaze landed on Sang Woruo's face, and a slight smile appeared on her face: There was indeed an assassin who had come before, but he was beaten away by Bi Su! This wangfei has the heavens as well. If someone wishes to harm me, it won't be that easy. "
"Oh?" Chu Yixuan turned his head, his eyes revealing a little surprise, "The assassin was beaten away by Bi Su?"
She actually admitted it?
Sang Woruo could not believe it, she could only feign shock on the surface, and looked at Bi Su: "So there is a martial arts expert at the side of wangfei?"
Bi Su lowered her head. Xu Rouzhi smiled and said, "For such a big assassin to be beaten up by Bi Su, everyone should feel lucky. Until now, everyone should still be alive and unharmed."
Sang Woruo naturally understood what Xu Rouzhi meant, and immediately felt her face stinging, and she did not know how to reply to Xu Rouzhi!
Chu Yixuan sized Bi Su up from head to toe: "Bi Su, you have done well to protect master, tomorrow, this king will heavily reward you."
Bi Su immediately replied: Thank you, Your Highness! However, not a single assassin has been caught, Bi Su is still derelict in her duty. "
Chu Yixuan sat down: "You can't be blamed, the one who failed in his duty was the Palace's guard courtyard."
Sang Woruo stared at Bi Su: "I'm very curious, since Bi Su possesses peerless martial arts, why did she hide it so that no one would know about it?"
Xu Rouzhi counterattacked: "Could it be that Mrs. Sang means that since the people from the Prince Qi Palace bully us, Bi Su should start attacking her?"
"Of course I don't mean that!"
"Then where is Bi Su hiding?"
"I …" Sang Woruo was speechless, her small face flushed red, and Chu Yixuan could only help Sang Woruo to smooth things over.
— In terms of scheming and eloquence, Sang Woruo could not even compare to Su Leyao! If Su Leyao was not a match for Xu Rouzhi, then Sang Woruo would probably not be able to win against him.
"The princess is magnanimous and benevolent. It's rare for her to show so many courtesies to everyone. If you don't understand, then don't bother with her."
"The prince is wise!" Xu Rouzhi said lightly, "It's a pity that the Duke never comes out to seek justice for all of us!"
This Xu Rouzhi!
Sang Woruo was extremely annoyed in her heart, but since she was in Chu Yixuan's way, she had no choice but to keep quiet.
This time, she also realised that the current Xu Rouzhi was no longer the Xu Rouzhi of the past! If she still dared to be careless, then, she would definitely be the next person to be defeated by Xu Rouzhi!
Sang Woruo held back her anger and bowed towards Xu Rouzhi. "I ask for your forgiveness Royal Concubine, Wo Luo won't dare to be so disrespectful anymore!"
Xu Rouzhi laughed: "That's great!"
Sang Woruo smiled respectfully on the surface, but she had actually bit her lips!
"Since the wangfei is fine, This King is relieved!" Chu Yixuan slowly stood up. "The Duke Palaces will strengthen their patrolling staff, from now on, this will not happen again!"
Xu Rouzhi revealed a harmless and innocent smile, "Your highness, you must be careful. If those people go in the wrong direction to the Safe House, then your highness will be in danger."
Chu Yixuan looked at her and smiled slightly: "I am very pleased that you are so worried about me, Princess."
Xu Rouzhi laughed: "We send you off, your highness."
Chu Yixuan took two steps outside, then stopped. He turned around and stared at Xu Rouzhi: "Have you recovered from the burn wounds on your chest?"
Xu Rouzhi was startled.
The corner of Chu Yixuan's mouth curled into a devilish smile, "Recover your injuries earlier, and come to serve this king."
Damn it, you still dare to ask her to sleep with you?
Xu Rouzhi arrogantly said: "Then I'll just wait!"
How dare he ask the king to wait! Sang Woruo was full of unhappiness, the Duke's attitude towards Xu Rouzhi was getting more and more warm! But Xu Rouzhi was getting more and more indifferent towards the Duke! This really made her uncomfortable!
Leaving the Jinxiu House, he looked at the silent Chu Yixuan: "Does Your Highness believe it now? They were the eyes and ears of the East Palace. If not for tonight's probing, Bi Su and Xu Rouzhi might still be pretending to be extremely weak, and still want to continue numbing the Duke! "
"What are you trying to say?" Chu Yixuan's tone was cold.
"I want to tell Your Highness that Xu Rouzhi has finally revealed her true appearance!"
Chu Yixuan stopped in his tracks. He turned and looked at Sang Woruo: "So what?"
Sang Woruo stopped in her tracks, caught off guard.
Under the red light of the lantern, Chu Yixuan's face became terrifyingly gloomy. "You called this duke to the Jinxiu House in the middle of the night just to let Bi Su personally admit that she knows martial arts?"
Sang Woruo was at a loss for words: "I …"
Chu Yixuan said coldly: "In the future, such disgraceful things, it would be best if it doesn't happen again!"
Sang Woruo watched as Chu Yixuan left with his sleeves flicking, she was so angry that she stomped her feet!
Chu Yixuan suddenly stopped walking, turned around, and said with an ice-cold tone: "Also, the life of the wangfei is in the hands of this king, so no one is allowed to decide for this king whether she lives or dies!"
Sang Woruo was startled: "Could it be that the Duke has really taken a fancy to her?"
Chu Yixuan snorted, then led the servants back to Safe House.
Sang Woruo stood there in a daze as she felt the cold from her feet on her body. However, what was colder was the coldness in her heart!
Sang Woruo finally could not hold it in, and two streams of tears fell from her eyes!
Has the Prince really set his eyes on Xu Rouzhi?
No, no!
She definitely could not allow this to happen!
Inside the Jinxiu House, Xu Rouzhi had already returned to the bed, and silently looked at Bi Su.
Bi Su said softly, "Princess, do you feel that the Duke's reaction is strange?"
Xu Rouzhi shrugged, "Even if the fact that you know martial arts were to be exposed, what can he do? Could it be that my maids are not allowed to learn martial arts? "
Bi Su looked at Xu Rouzhi: "Maybe, Prince is just calm for now."
Listening outside the house, the only sound that could be heard was the sound of the wind. Xu Rouzhi sighed: "This is truly a tree that wants to stay calm but the winds do not stop blowing. Chu Yixuan will temporarily not make a move, but Sang Woruo will definitely be impatient. "
"Right now, everyone in the Duke Palaces should be paying attention to our Jinxiu House. If something happens to us here, the Duke definitely wouldn't ignore us."
Bi Su was right. Xu Rouzhi nodded her head, she was not afraid of Sang Woruo, the most terrifying thing was the calm and collected Chu Yixuan. Since Bi Su knew martial arts, he would definitely let him confirm their relationship with the Eastern Palace. Then, how would he deal with them?
"Then what should we do?" Bi Su asked softly.
Xu Rouzhi was silent for a moment, then said: "Now that your identity is exposed, it is also a good thing. They knew your martial arts were good, so they wouldn't dare to send assassins to assassinate you. As long as they didn't use any force, everything would be fine! I have all sorts of ways to turn the entire Prince Qi Residence upside down! "
Bi Su was startled. "Really … Do you want to turn the whole Prince Qi Palace upside down? "
"Do you have any better suggestions?"
"Should we report our actions to the Crown’s Master first before carrying it out?"
Bi Su's words reminded Xu Rouzhi.
That's right, although Bi Su was currently protecting her, she was actually Xu Chang's person. The benefit Bi Su was defending was actually Xu Chang's interest, not hers!
Xu Rouzhi calmed down: "Tomorrow, follow me back to Xu Mansion, and suggest Crown’s Master to take you back to Xu Mansion."
Bi Su was startled. "Why?"
At this time, Xu Rouzhi's mind flashed with all sorts of images of Xu Rouzhi's experiences of being alone and helpless. Qi Yu, who had already become one with Xu Rouzhi, felt her emotions fluctuate slightly, "Bi Su, you are also from the Crown’s Master's Palace, so you should understand my experience very clearly. I am just a concubine's daughter, I have no status in the Crown’s Master's Palace, I become a concubine. Ever since her mother passed away, she had never enjoyed the warmth of family. In this world, she was completely alone and had no one to rely on. When Crown’s Master threw me into this Prince Qi Palace, he no longer cared about my life and death. He wanted to use me, but at the same time he allowed me to live and die.
Bi Su was startled, she looked at Xu Rouzhi and did not say a word.
Xu Rouzhi sneered, "There's no difference between having such a father and not having a father. What's the difference between having a family member and not having a family member? No one cares whether I live or die, and no one asks, so why do I have to listen to him? Unless I get rid of him, he will definitely kill me! "
Bi Su was startled, "Of course the Crown’s Master won't want the wangfei to die!"
Xu Rouzhi bit her lips: "No matter what, the current me, is no longer the Xu Rouzhi of the past! From tomorrow onwards, I will no longer be anyone's chess piece! "
