Want to tease the prince, the cat is soft and delicate

"Meow!" Mei Susu's fur exploded. She roared at Duke Wu and raised her paw to attack him.

Getting ready to scratch his face.

But the big hand holding her abdomen tightened, making her unable to move.

Mei Susu turned to look at Xuanyuan Che in confusion, thinking that Xuanyuan Che was really going to listen to the old man and throw her out.

But the reality was not what she thought. Xuanyuan Che held her body and pinched her ears gently, which made her feel a little itchy. Mei Susu fanned her little ears.

"Don't move." Xuanyuan Che said.

Mei Susu immediately resisted the itch in her ears and dared not move.

Mei Susu felt the sound of her ears being wiped, and when she saw the black ink marks on the handkerchief in Xuanyuan Che's hand, she suddenly realized what was going on.

It turned out that Xuanyuan Che wanted to wipe the black spot on the back of her ear, so he stopped her from moving.

After wiping Mei Susu clean, Xuanyuan Che said slowly, "I don't like dealing with people who only say half of what they say. Duke Wu, don't you intend to give me an explanation?"

Duke Wu took another step forward and said respectfully, "This old minister has received news that someone is trying to poison Your Highness."

Zhuiying's hand suddenly grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist. Zhuixue and Zhuiyu also treated it as a formidable enemy.

When Mei Susu heard that someone was trying to poison Xuanyuan Che, her ears immediately perked up and she looked like she was watching a show with great interest.

She decided to wait until she finished eating this wave of melon before scratching the old man's face.

"What does this poison have to do with what Duke Wu said?" Xuanyuan Che's narrow and long phoenix eyes seemed to have captured lake water for ten thousand years, dark, cold and elusive.

Duke Wu didn't dare to look again after just one glance. He lowered his head even more, somewhat regretting what he had just said.

He clearly saw how the other person doted on the cat, so why did he say such things? He was just asking for trouble.

"According to what I know, that person poisoned..."

Duke Wu's gaze fell on Mei Susu. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell what was going on, let alone Xuanyuan Che.

Mei Susu, who was eating melon with great interest, suddenly felt a pang in her heart: It's over, it's aimed at her.

She finally realized that the poison the old man was talking about should be the poison that Eunuch Chen had given her.

Koi said that the person behind the other party was planning to use her body to kill two birds with one stone. If Koi had not cleared the poison from her body, the other party would have succeeded.

It seems that this old guy knew the inside story. In this case, it is understandable that he asked Xuanyuan Che to throw her away. It's just that what he said was a bit blunt and unpleasant.

He could have been more tactful.

As he gets older, his emotional intelligence is worrying.

Xuanyuan Che's expression changed instantly. Mei Susu was squatting in his arms, so he was the first to know her reaction.

She could feel Xuanyuan Che's body stiffen for a moment, and when she turned around, Xuanyuan Che had already stood up holding her.

"Tell me everything you know."

Duke Wu did not dare to conceal it, and since he had said it, he had no intention of hiding anything.

He told them everything, including that he knew the other party had poisoned him, what kind of poison it was and when the poison was going to be poisoned.

When Xuanyuan Che heard the three words "Split Heart Powder", murderous aura filled his whole body and his eyes turned red.

When Duke Wu said that the poison had already been administered to Mei Susu, Xuanyuan Che flicked his sleeves and disappeared into the hall in almost the blink of an eye.

Only the voice remained in the palace: "It is said that Xuechen has come to Chaoyang Palace."

After the people left, the pressure on Duke Wu also dissipated.

Duke Wu straightened up and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time he looked worriedly towards the place where Xuanyuan Che disappeared.

What he said today completely offended the Third Prince. From now on, he has to cling to Xuanyuan Che's support.

Judging from the number of years he has spent in the court, this man has a better chance of inheriting the throne than anyone else.

Zhuiying stepped forward again, and this time Duke Wu did not hesitate and left the palace with Zhuiying.

As soon as he walked out of the palace, Duke Wu saw a man standing in front of the palace gate, who was the purpose of his visit to the palace.

As soon as she saw him, she burst into tears and ran towards him with her skirt lifted up.

"Daddy!"

Duke Wu had a blank expression on his face. When the person approached, he raised his hand and slapped the woman hard. There was a crisp slapping sound, and the delicate woman was knocked to the ground.

Duke Wu didn't look at her for long, but walked past her towards the carriage.

The old woman who came with Duke Wu ran forward with concern, helped the woman up from the ground, and straightened her clothes.

"Mother Li, Daddy actually hit me. He never hit me since I was a child, but he hit me today."

The woman was crying with tears in her eyes, and the clear slap marks on her face showed how powerful the slap had been.

Mother Li sighed deeply and said earnestly, "My dear, the master is also worried about you. Do you know what kind of torture you would have suffered in the imperial prison if it weren't for the master?"

Mother Li lowered her voice and said, "If the news of murdering the prince gets out, it will be a serious crime that will result in the extermination of all nine generations of the clan."

Jiang Siyao's eyes widened angrily: "What did you say? How did I ever murder the prince? I clearly wanted to..."

Before she could finish her words, Duke Wu's angry voice came: "Why don't you get over here? How dare you talk nonsense? You haven't been in the imperial prison long enough!"

Jiang Siyao looked at Mother Li beside her in fear. Mother Li patted the back of her hand and signaled her not to be afraid. Jiang Siyao then took small steps towards the carriage.

In the carriage, Jiang Siyao sat in the corner next to Mother Li, while Duke Wu sat in the middle of the carriage with his hands on his knees.

He snorted coldly, "Come sit here! I am a jackal, tiger or leopard, how can I eat you! You were not afraid when I entered the palace and did those stupid things, so what are you afraid of now?"

“Daddy…” Jiang Siyao called out in a trembling voice. Not daring to disobey, she moved to the middle.

Duke Wu looked at the face that was 80% similar to his first wife. Even though he was very angry, it finally turned into a sigh.

He said angrily, "I don't know how I gave birth to a stupid thing like you. You are either being controlled by others or being pushed out as a scapegoat. Can you please let your father save some worries?"

"At the beginning, your father didn't allow you to marry the Third Prince, but you insisted on marrying him, and even as a concubine of lower status. Now you almost lost your life, what is he doing now?"

Jiang Siyao said nothing, clutching the handkerchief in both hands and tears fell.

"Now that I have rescued you, you don't have to go back. I will tell the outside world that you have died in the palace."

"No." Jiang Siyao shook her head, tears falling even harder: "Daddy, are you planning to lock up your daughter?"

"After this period of time, your father will send you out of the capital and go to your grandparents' home."

Jiang Siyao couldn't believe it. Without thinking, she knelt down in front of Duke Wu and shook her head repeatedly: "No, Daddy, don't send me away. It's not that Jing Lang doesn't want to save me. He must have his own difficulties."

"Besides, it was my daughter who wanted to do this. Jing Lang didn't want to do it. It was my daughter who insisted on going. It was just poisoning a cat. My daughter doesn't know why it was considered as murdering the prince. My daughter is innocent."

Jiang Siyao grabbed the hem of Duke Wu's clothes and begged him, "Daddy, please, send me back to the Third Prince's Mansion. Jing Lang will definitely treat me well. He is not what Daddy thinks."

Seeing how things had come to this, she was still pleading for the Third Prince. Duke Wu was so disheartened that he closed his eyes.

But he and his first wife only had this one daughter, and even if she hated him, he would never watch her die.

Duke Wu's heart hardened, and he pulled back the hem of Jiang Siyao's clothes without even looking at her: "Give up on this idea, your father will not send you back."
