The little princess' mind was read, and the court and harem were eating melons

Everyone inside and outside the car who heard this became nervous.

Huo Xu immediately realized that this was Li Qingyi testing him.

He felt deeply moved that his little cousin was really smart. She knew how to test people at such a young age, and her reactions were quick, and she immediately suspected them.

Huo Xu felt a little nervous for a moment. He didn't know how his little cousin would react if she knew that they could hear the sound.

And if they fail to handle the situation well and expose the matter, will the Emperor and Empress be dissatisfied with them after they find out about it?

As for sentencing, given the current status of the Cheng'en Mansion, they should not directly sentence you, but not sentencing you does not mean safety.

For those in a higher position, sometimes letting the secrets in their hearts slip is much more dangerous than acting out at the time.

Especially when this person is the ruler of the world, if he is recorded in a little notebook, who knows when he will be suddenly brought up for reckoning in the future?

Although Huo Xu is still young and has not yet entered the officialdom, his sensitivity in this area has been cultivated since childhood. He is not the kind of fool who thinks he can do whatever he wants just because he has an aunt who is the queen.

Inside the carriage, Fang Xin faced Li Qingyi's question with a puzzled look in her eyes. Then, as if she had thought of something, she looked a little apologetic: "Did your Highness call me just now? It's my fault for delaying the time and not being able to come and serve you in time..."

Li Qingyi waved his hand: "It's okay, I don't have anything important to do, I just want to ask where your teapot is."

Having said that, Li Qingyi turned around and said to the system: [It seems that only Li Zhu can hear it, fortunately it’s okay. ]

The system realized it belatedly: [Host just suspected that Fang Xin could hear it too? ]

Li Qingyi: [That’s not the case, but now that everyone is here, let’s give it a try.]

Li Qingyi: [Ah, that's right. If other people could hear us talking, they would have shown it long ago. It wouldn't be as calm as it is now.]

System: [Oh, host, don't worry. The system requires energy to run. The energy I deduct from running it every day is only enough to communicate with you, the host. If other people can hear my voice, then there must be something wrong with the energy I consume. I will find it.]

Li Qingyi: [What about Li Zhu...]

System: [Maybe it’s because you share an account? ]

The system directly summarized what Li Qingyi said before into a [Public Account], which is quite consistent in some ways.

Li Zhu could only listen to the conversation between the two people at the side, and no matter how he shouted in his heart, the two of them didn't hear a word.

He couldn't get a word in. He felt suffocated as if he wanted to speak but couldn't. At this time, Fang Xin poured a glass of water for Li Qingyi and a cup of tea for Li Zhu. Li Zhu was distracted and subconsciously said thank you.

As soon as he said this, he froze.

During this period, he was taken care of by the eldest princess and taught many things, one of which was not to be too polite to the people below him.

At that time, the eldest princess gave Li Zhu an example of an old incident that happened a few years ago.

In a family, the daughter lost her mother at a young age and was raised by her stepmother. She was gentle and virtuous. When she reached the age to get married, she was killed by a maid who fell into the water.

The truth was found out afterwards and could be summed up in four words: the slave bullies the master.

To put it simply, it is about a maidservant who was spoiled by her master and fell in love with a young man. She wanted to trick the young lady into falling into the water and having physical contact with the young man, so that she would have to marry him, and she could also marry him and become his concubine.

It's just that the maid misjudged the young lady's physical condition and chose the wrong time. A life was lost in the icy lake in winter, and after the matter was exposed, the maid also lost her life.

The princess said this to Li Zhu because she wanted him to understand the importance of ruling his subordinates.

Li Zhu... Li Zhu was indeed frightened.

He was transported into the body of the original owner three years ago. When he came, the original owner had already passed away due to a serious illness.

Li Zhu took over this body and recuperated for a long time. He was not polite to the "old man" around him - he was not that stupid. If he really wanted to be polite to the people around him, wouldn't he be exposed at once?

Therefore, Li Zhu's politeness only became apparent after he arrived at the Princess's Mansion.

He had just arrived and felt uncomfortable in his new home, so he was naturally polite. Then the eldest princess caught him and gave him a lecture.

Fortunately, the eldest princess did not suspect anything. She just thought that Li Zhu was wronged and ignored in Liu's mansion. In order to live a good life, he had to put aside his status and make friends with those servants, so he acted like this.

And now...

Li Zhu looked at Fang Xin nervously.

Fang Xin: "Does the young prince have any instructions?"

The princess was worried that Li Zhu was too soft and could be easily bullied by his subordinates, so she wanted to teach him how to put on airs.

Li Qingyi was different. She showed strong personal opinions even when she couldn't speak. No one could persuade her once she made her decision.

For example, when drinking milk, after she had a certain degree of self-mobility, she would never touch the wet nurse.

There are many other things that are enough to make everyone realize what kind of temper this young master has. Naturally, they will not think that she is easy to control just because of her politeness.

Li Qingyi had already finished talking to the system. Upon hearing this, he turned his head and asked, "Nephew, if you need anything, just tell Aunt Fang Xin directly."

Li Zhu blinked, thinking about something. After meeting Li Qingyi's gaze, he shook his head gently: "Nothing, I'll just sit down."

Hey, this Aunt Fangxin has such a natural attitude.

Compared to those who had heard him thank them before, it seemed like... they were not surprised at all.

He looked at Li Qingyi, then at Fang Xin, and thought that his little movements were very covert, but in fact, Fang Xin saw them all.

Fang Xin was confused and didn't understand what the young prince meant.

Huo Xu came over and asked at this time, and then the carriage started moving quickly, and the interior of the carriage fell into silence for a while.

The carriage was shaking and Li Zhu was obviously not sitting comfortably. He frowned slightly but said nothing.

Li Qingyi noticed this and glanced at him.

Li Zhu didn't notice. He was trying with all his strength to control himself from swaying like a tumbler in the carriage.

Li Qingyi suddenly asked, "Nephew, what are you going to do in the future?"

Li Zhu: “Hmm?”

Li Qingyi smiled and said, "Nephew, do you want to work for father like your brother, or do you want to do something else, like travel and sightsee? If you have any ideas, you can tell me and I will help you to talk to father and brother."

Li Qingyi: [Li Zhu, do you want to enjoy a life of wealth and luxury, or...realize your own value? ]

She, a three-year-old baby, can't do much, but Li Zhu is already twelve years old. In this age, he can already start working!
