"Yes, it is said that the people from the Prime Minister's Palace have gone to the Taishi Palace to crusade today, but the wife of the Taishi Palace ignored them at all, and now they have complained to the emperor."

……

For a moment, the sound of gossip reached Su Xiaoxi's ears.

Cheng Shubai looked calm.

"How's it going?" Su Xiaoxi turned her head and looked at Cheng Shubai, asking with a slightly searching look in her eyes.

Cheng Shubai curled his lips, "What do you think?"

"I think..." Su Xiaoxi trailed off with a smirk on her face, "Cheng Yuyan is as touching as her father's IQ."

Su Xiaoxi's words made Chunlan laugh instantly.

"Princess, you must not say that. The Prime Minister will be sad if he hears it." Chunlan reminded.

"Don't worry, he won't be sad for long. I believe he won't be sad soon."

"Oh?" Su Xiaoxi pretended to be secretive.

"Because he will be demoted soon." Su Xiaoxi's words caused Cheng Shubai to turn his head and look at Su Xiaoxi.

"Downgrade?"

"Yes, not only that, he will lose everything he has now." Su Xiaoxi nodded seriously, as if she saw it with her own eyes.

Cheng Shubai frowned slightly. He vaguely guessed what "everything" Su Xiaoxi meant, but he was not sure.

He did have some private things that needed to be hidden from him, and he didn't want anyone to know about it yet, including Su Xiaoxi.

"Princess, it's time for us to return to the palace." Cheng Shubai reminded.

"Ah? Are you going back home so early? We don't know how long we have to go shopping." Su Xiaoxi was dissatisfied.

"You're tired today, I'll go out with you tomorrow." Cheng Shubai persuaded.

Su Xiaoxi curled her lips, she was so energetic, how could she be tired?

"Okay, don't worry about me. Just go back and get some beauty sleep. I can take care of myself, don't worry."

In the end, Cheng Shubai compromised. He was not worried, he just wanted to spend more time with Su Xiaoxi.

……

In the dead of night, Su Xiaoxi lay on the bed tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

There was no other reason than she was so excited. She didn't expect that coming out this time would give her such a big surprise.

Although she never thought she would meet Cheng Shubai, this was the only good news about her recent encounter with him.

Although she was very happy, she also felt guilty deep down in her heart. After all, if she had not provoked those people in the first place, Cheng Shubai would not have to endure these tortures.

However, even if she thinks about it, those people may not come back to seek revenge. In this world, unless there are dead people, there will never be eternal secrets.

The next day.

As soon as Cheng Shubai arrived at the mansion, someone came to report that the Minister of Punishment asked to see him.

"Xuan."

When the Minister of Punishment came to visit, there must be a serious criminal involved. Soon, the Minister of Punishment was brought into the study.

Cheng Shubai sat at his desk, waiting for the Minister of Punishment's report.

As for the Minister of Justice, he came here to present important evidence.

"Sir Cheng, this is the poison that was collected from the Grand Master's Mansion yesterday by the lower official. Please take a look at it, Mr. Cheng." The Minister of Punishment respectfully handed over a letter with both hands.

Looking at the letter presented by the Minister of Justice, Cheng Shubai's eyes fell on the letter, but he still didn't reach out to pick it up.

Seeing this, the Minister of Punishment was confused.

"Master Cheng? Is there something wrong?" The Minister of Punishment couldn't help but ask.

Cheng Shubai calmed down his thoughts when he heard the sound, and said calmly, "It's not a problem."

As he spoke, he took the letter, opened it, and examined it carefully.

After reading the contents of the letter, Cheng Shubai raised his eyebrows slightly, "Where did this poison come from?"

"I don't know, but I think it has something to do with the Grand Master's Mansion." The Minister of Punishment replied.

Cheng Shubai did not reply immediately, but continued browsing.

After reading it, he was silent.

After a while, he handed the letter in his hand to the Minister of Justice and ordered: "Follow the above method and be sure to mix it in water and send it to the Taishi Mansion."

The Minister of Justice took the letter and read it carefully.

"Master Cheng, will you get burned if you do this?" The Minister of Punishment looked at Cheng Shubai worriedly.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty will arrange this matter properly." Cheng Shu Baiyun replied calmly.

"Then I will follow Master Cheng's instructions."

After the Minister of Justice left, Cheng Shubai's eyes gradually became cold.

In the Cheng family, he absolutely does not allow any mistakes to occur. As for other things, he does not consider them.

……

Su Xiaoxi went to Zuixiangfang early in the morning.

This is a restaurant that Su Xiaoxi opened after she became a princess. Even the Cheng family members were brought to the capital.

Fortunately, the business in Zuixian Tower has been extremely hot these days, so as soon as Su Xiaoxi entered Zuixiang Tower, the shopkeeper hurriedly greeted her.

Seeing Su Xiaoxi, the shopkeeper quickly called Su Xiaoxi into the store.

"Oh, this young master is so handsome." The shopkeeper looked at Su Xiaoxi's handsome face and praised him sincerely.

His face was full of joy. He didn't expect that the boss behind this would come here at this time.

"Thank you for the compliment." Su Xiaoxi was not modest. Anyway, there were so many people praising her, so it didn't seem strange that there was an extra shopkeeper.

Hearing Su Xiaoxi's answer, the shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then laughed heartily.

Su Xiaoxi then noticed that the shopkeeper was over fifty years old, but he seemed extremely kind and amiable, giving people a very comfortable feeling.

"Shopkeeper, do we have new dishes in Zuixiang Restaurant now?"

Su Xiaoxi asked, admiring the surrounding decorations as she walked.

"Haha, yes, yes," the shopkeeper replied quickly.

"Shopkeeper, please take out the things and show them to me first. I'll try how they taste first."

"Okay, waiter." The shopkeeper shouted to the side.

Soon, the waiter came up with two plates of dishes.

"Sir, please try it." The shopkeeper enthusiastically promoted.

Looking at the two plates in front of her, Su Xiaoxi picked up a piece of fish with her chopsticks, put it in her mouth and chewed it.

Well, it tastes pretty good, moderately salty and fresh.

"Well, it tastes pretty good."

When the shopkeeper heard Su Xiaoxi's comment, he couldn't close his mouth with joy.

"Sir, it's our honor for you to come to our Zuixian Restaurant for dinner. If you need anything in the future, just let us know." The shopkeeper said politely.

"Thank you so much, shopkeeper." Su Xiaoxi thanked her with a smile.

"Young master, please eat slowly and use it slowly. If you need anything, come back to me."

"Okay, thank you, shopkeeper."

With that said, Su Xiaoxi continued to enjoy the breakfast in front of her.

It wasn't until he was full that he put down his bowls and chopsticks.

Seeing that Su Xiaoxi finally stopped moving, the shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief.

Afterwards, Su Xiaoxi wrote down some modern dishes, spicy hotpot and other ingredients, and asked the shopkeeper to prepare them.

Regarding Su Xiaoxi's request, the shopkeeper did not dare to neglect it and quickly completed it according to Su Xiaoxi's request.
