It's good to exchange marriages. My sister eats coarse food while I wear gold and silver.

With Yuan Buwei's departure, the small bedroom suddenly became quiet, with only the sound of each other's shallow breathing.

"Princess, are you thirsty?"

It was Master Youshi who broke the silence first and handed a glass of water to Princess Jinghe.

"Fortunately."

When Princess Jinghe took the cup of water, her eyes fell on Master Youshi's head. When she was pulling with him just now, the veil on his head showed signs of slipping down a little, and now she actually saw a little bit of black hair showing from inside.

Before she could even think, she had already reached out and took off Master Youshi's veil.

The black hair like a waterfall was spread over Master Youshi's entire back.

"Yan, Yan Shiqiu, how come you didn't even shave your hair when you became a monk?" Princess Jinghe stood up and threw her veil on him, "You lied to me."

"Princess, please don't be angry. It was my master who felt that I had not yet completed my earthly ties, so he allowed me to practice Buddhism with my hair uncut." Master Youshi explained hurriedly, "I had been practicing in the back mountain of Ganye Temple, but my master passed away due to illness. I thought of his understanding and guidance to me, so I decided to take his place and preach Buddhism to the pilgrims who came to Ganye Temple. I didn't expect that the pilgrims were very supportive of me. After a while, I became famous in Ganye Temple."

After listening to Master Youshi's explanation, Princess Jinghe's expression finally eased. Seeing a trace of grievance in his eyes, she sat down next to him again: "Have you, have you been doing well in Ganye Temple these years?"

Master Youshi was about to say it was okay, but he remembered what Madam Lu had told him before: When getting along with the princess, don't say ambiguous words, be straightforward, the more straightforward the better.

So, he looked up at Princess Jinghe: "At first, I had my master by my side, so I could get by. But then my master passed away, and I was extremely sad. I was sick for a while, but before I recovered, I heard that the princess got married. Then I heard that the princess and her husband didn't get along, and the husband left the princess's mansion in anger. The princess was so angry that she couldn't recover, and finally she was depressed and bedridden..."

"Xie Yunting only has eyes for the power in my hands. Now he is in Kunlun Mountain, using the title of my consort, and I don't know how many immoral things he has done." Princess Jinghe's eyes flashed with fire, "Sooner or later, I will settle this account with him."

"Princess……"

Master Youshi's expression changed, and he couldn't help but hold her hand: "You have just recovered from your illness, and you are not easily angered. If, if you trust me, I am willing to serve the princess."

Princess Jinghe looked at Master Youshi in surprise, and shook her head after a moment: "You are now a senior monk in Ganye Temple, and many people are watching your every word and action, so you should not get involved in this mess."

When Master Youshi heard this, his eyes instantly fell: "Princess, do you think my identity will cause you trouble?"

"Yan Shiqiu, what are you thinking? This is the grudge between me and Xie Yunting. I don't want others to get involved. Besides..." Princess Jinghe stared at Master Youshi's aggrieved face. She couldn't help but pinched his waist hard. "Yan Shiqiu, I'm not a monster. Are you so afraid of me?"

Yuan Buwei, who was staying next door, heard these words.

Almost laughed out loud.

It’s not that she was eavesdropping, it’s just that the soundproofing here isn’t very good.

"No, Princess...I..."

The voices of the two people behind were getting quieter and quieter, and there was even a slight sticky sound.

Yuan Buwei quickly walked to the back window to avoid hearing too many voices that she dared not hear and being silenced by Princess Jinghe.

"thump."

Outside the rear window was an artificial lake. Yuan Buwei was 100% sure that she heard something fall into the water.

"Help, help, help..."

It's not something that fell into the water, it's a person.

Yuan Buwei hurriedly opened the rear window. Under the moonlight, there was a person struggling hard in the middle of the lake.

Seeing that the man was about to sink, Yuan Buwei made up her mind and walked out quickly.

"Princess."

"Yuan Buwei, you..."

The two people who were hugging each other were startled. Princess Jinghe was even more frightened. She pushed Master Youshi away and glared at Yuan Buwei angrily: "Don't you want your head anymore?"

"Someone fell into the water at the back."

"what?"

Master Youshi immediately ordered outside the hall: "Wuxi, go to the lake behind and take a look. Someone has fallen into the water."

"Yes."

Not long after, Wuxi brought the person who fell into the water in, while Master Youshi and Yuan Buwei went to the next door temporarily to avoid suspicion.

"rue?"

Princess Jinghe recognized at a glance that the woman sitting on the ground, shivering like a drowned rat, was the queen's personal maid.

Yunxiang was startled. When she looked up at Princess Jinghe, she seemed to not believe it. The next second, she immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "Princess, please save me. I don't want to die. I don't want to die."

"What do you mean?"

Princess Jinghe frowned: "How could you fall into the water if you were not serving the Queen?"

Yunxiang was the maid who was brought into the palace as a dowry when the Queen got married. She has been loyal to the Queen all these years. When Princess Jinghe went to see the Queen in the past, the other maids all tried to curry favor with her, but she was neither humble nor arrogant and had a kind nature, so Princess Jinghe had an impression of her.

Yunxiang was lying on the ground, her body trembling slightly, and it was obvious that she had something to hide.

"Why don't you want to tell me why you fell into the water?" Princess Jinghe sneered, "Someone come..."

"Slave said."

Seeing Princess Jinghe was about to call for help, Yunxiang panicked: "When the palace banquet was over, I accompanied the Queen back to Fengyi Palace. Halfway along the way, a man rushed out, grabbed the Queen's hand, and dragged her into the woods. I was terrified, and just as I was about to shout, I was knocked unconscious. When I woke up, I found myself in the lake, so I desperately called for help."

"Nonsense, the Queen is the head of the harem. Who is so bold as to drag the Queen into..." Princess Jinghe suddenly stopped talking because Yunxiang's eyes were evasive and she didn't tell the truth. "Yunxiang, this is the palace where the emperor entertains guests. It is in two directions from the Queen's Fengyi Palace. Even if you were framed, why would they throw you into the lake behind the palace? There are lakes on the roads leading to Fengyi Palace."

Yunxiang’s face suddenly turned pale and her body shook even more violently.

"Princess, slave..."

Princess Jinghe slowly walked in front of Yunxiang, squatted down, stretched out two fingers to lift her chin, and leveled her eyes with hers: "The relationship between me and the queen has never been very good. If I return you to the queen now, does that count as the queen owing me a favor?"

“Princess, Princess, don’t…” Yunxiang was so frightened that her teeth were chattering. After trembling for a long time, she finally managed to say, “I, I accidentally saw the Queen and, and Governor Deng… so I will be silenced.”
