It's great, another day of lying down and idling in the palace

Ji Yunqing watched the people in front of him come and go.

Looking at King Zhao again, he shuddered instantly.

He wouldn't be...he wouldn't be doing this on purpose, right?

The two of them were going to pick fruit in the small courtyard where Ji Yunqing once lived. After all, although there were fruit trees in other places in the mansion, they were planted in a more scattered and particular way.

Basically, each place grows one species, and the species are not as rich as there.

So the question is, it is known that the small courtyard where she used to live was very remote, and usually no one went there. King Zhao deliberately drove away other people, and the remaining ones were basically servants in the mansion.

Remote, quiet, uninhabited

What does this make people instinctively think of?

So Ji Yunqing thought for a moment and came to an important conclusion -

He wouldn't be planning to kill her to silence her, right?

When he thought of this speculation, Ji Yunqing couldn't help but gasp.

It’s good that the place is remote, as it makes it convenient to destroy the body.

There was a hint of fear in her eyes as she looked at King Zhao. This man was so scheming!

But facing the look King Zhao was giving her, Ji Yunqing tried hard not to cry in order not to alert the enemy, and finally managed to say:

"Your Majesty, you...you are so thoughtful."

King Zhao was also very satisfied. Now there were finally no more annoying people around.

He can be alone with Ji Yunqing quietly.

Over time, Yun Qing will understand that he is the best.

I will never care about any weird people again.

There was a hint of joy in his tone: "It's getting late, let's go." He couldn't wait to have some sweet time alone with Yun Qing.

As he said this, he walked ahead.

It’s getting late, it’s getting late. This sentence has been lingering in Ji Yunqing’s mind. Is he impatient to take action against her?

Ji Yunqing: …I suddenly didn’t want to go anymore.

But she was the one who originally brought up the idea of ​​going, what if she changed her mind?

Xuancao whispered, "Master, let's go quickly." The prince has already walked so far.

Ji Yunqing came to his senses, started running in small steps, and soon arrived beside King Zhao.

He asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, it's getting late today, why don't we not go?"

King Zhao was thinking about what he should do when he arrived at the place and how to be alone with Ji Yunqing, but then he heard Ji Yunqing say this.

He was unhappy and rejected it outright: "No, you must go!"

A big hand grabbed Ji Yunqing's wrist and said in a tone that did not allow rejection: "Yunqing, didn't we agree to pick fruits to eat?"

They have made up their minds today, and even Ji Yunqing himself cannot back down.

Ji Yunqing felt very disappointed. It turned out that he was planning to kill her and bury her body there, right?

Just because she had contact with the other party’s wife and concubine again today?

But, but you can't blame her entirely. It was clearly Concubine Wen who ran over here on her own initiative. The legs are on her body.

Is it really that difficult for some men to admit that they are not as attractive as others?

Ji Yunqing thought so in his mind, and after thinking hard, he began to tell King Zhao about how he killed his wife and concubines and was sought revenge by the wronged spirits and suffered the consequences.

"Your Majesty, I think that woman was too lenient. If someone dares to kill me..."

She glanced at King Zhao without leaving any trace, and then quickly turned away, "If someone dares to kill me, I will chop him into dumpling stuffing, so that I will live up to his reputation as a scumbag!"

The so-called scum, of course, must be truly broken into scum to be worthy of the name.

King Zhao frowned slightly and said, "As long as I am here, no one will dare to attack you." There was no need to cite examples that were impossible to happen.

Ji Yunqing hummed in his heart, what he said was really nice.

Didn’t people in ancient times believe in ghosts and gods? They hoped that the other party could be intimidated a little.

The two of them soon arrived at the place, which was the small courtyard where Ji Yunqing originally lived.

At that time, the fruit trees planted by Ji Yunqing had gradually grown and produced sour and sweet fruits.

Coming to this small courtyard again, Ji Yunqing looked at it with nostalgia and felt that this small courtyard was very familiar.

Compared with the yard where she lives now, the space seems a bit cramped.

Ji Yunqing's soft fingertips gently stroked the mottled mossy door: "Your Highness, it feels like this place has changed a lot, but it also seems to have not changed much."

King Zhao had no feelings for this small courtyard: "Let's go in and take a look."

Not long after the two of them entered, Ji Yunqing heard a series of chaotic footsteps outside, followed by bursts of women's laughter.

There is someone here?

Ji Yunqing looked over in surprise and soon saw a group of gorgeously dressed women passing by outside.

The women also saw them, and when they heard them talking to each other, they came over here together.

When they got closer, they saw King Zhao and were immediately surprised. The woman in the lead led everyone to salute, saying with excitement: "Your Majesty!"

"Slave, your servant Ximei greets the prince."

The woman behind her also bowed and said, "I am Menglan/Yuzhu/Caiju/Juxiang, greeting His Majesty."

They are all little beauties with sweet voices, beautiful looks and lovable looks.

Ji Yunqing recognized their identities instantly - it was not because she had a good memory, but as soon as she heard the four words plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, she knew who they were.

These were the maids that served King Zhao. There were originally eight maids who served King Zhao, two each from the ornaments of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum.

Later, the two became pregnant. One of them had a miscarriage and was sent away. The other gave birth to the third son of the mansion and was sent away. Then, Ninglan won the favor of the princess and was promoted to a concubine.

So there are only these five left.

By the way, King Zhao later sent these girls to the backyard to be raised. Didn’t he pick out a few more pretty girls to warm his bed?

King Zhao obviously recognized them and asked in a very uneasy tone, "Why are you here?"

The leader was Ximei. She could see that the prince was unhappy and replied cautiously, "Your Highness, we live nearby and happened to pass by and saw you..."

In fact, one of them happened to see the prince's servants. When she saw so many people, she panicked and told everyone what happened.

So they all just came out to "pass by"

When Ji Yunqing heard Ximei's words, his eyes lit up.

Wasn't she worried that King Zhao would kill her when no one was around?

It’s just right that someone has come here, it’s like a pillow for those who are sleepy.

Almost impatiently, Ji Yunqing gently and considerately suggested: "Your Majesty, since we have met, it is fate.

Why not ask them to stay and pick the fruits together? There are so many fruits, wouldn’t it be a waste if we can’t pick them all?”

King Zhao didn't want them to stay, but Ji Yunqing had spoken.

He could only nod in agreement.

So, after Ji Yunqing picked a few fruits and satisfied himself, he was inexplicably taken by King Zhao to wander around the area.

After the two men left, Eunuch Shi looked at the others and said, "The prince has ordered that the girls pick all the ripe fruits."
