Crazy and bad again, the princess is the best in Beijing

Shi Wanwan was puzzled by the stare and retorted, "I know I'm pretty, but it's rude of you to look at me like that."

Jibei: “…”

He said nothing and walked away quickly.

As soon as they left, Shi Wanwan took the silver note worth ten thousand taels and looked at it carefully.

There is nothing wrong with the silver note, it is the common exchange ticket used by the largest money houses in the Tang Dynasty.

She sighed and said, "He's really rich!"

After Xie Xuanzhi came out of the princess's mansion, Ji Bei came over and said, "Your Majesty, everything has been handled."

"There really is someone in the capital harboring people from Xiliang. The prince was initially plotted against by the Xiliang people, and they have accomplices both in the army and in the capital."

Xie Xuanzhi said in a calm tone, "It's within expectations."

Ji Bei said angrily, "If it weren't for the prince guarding the border all these years, I'm afraid the people of Xiliang would have attacked the capital."

He then added, "Even so, the prince still destroyed Xiliang. The prince is truly amazing!"

Xie Xuanzhi ordered: "Continue to investigate along the clues. Even if I am about to die, I must find out who wants to kill me."

There is no confusion in his world, and he must get to the bottom of this matter.

Ji Bei responded, "Yes! If we find the person behind this, is there still a chance to find an antidote?"

When Xie Xuanzhi was poisoned, the person who poisoned him committed suicide on the spot, and all clues were cut off.

When Xie Xuanzhi attacked the Xiliang royal court, he found the missing clues there, and the arrows pointed directly to the capital.

Because of this, he leaked the news of his poisoning to Emperor Qianyuan, who then summoned him back to the capital to recuperate.

His return to Beijing for recuperation was fake, and his real intention was to find the person who poisoned him.

The first clue he got was in a gambling house, which led to his cleaning up of the gambling houses, brothels, and underground money houses a few months ago.

Although he didn't find the clues he was looking for during that raid, he did get some unexpected news.

Xie Xuanzhi didn't hold much hope for finding an antidote. Even if there was an antidote now, he could only live one or two more years at most.

Because he knew that the poison had already penetrated into his internal organs and had begun to be damaged.

He asked Jibei: "What do you think about what happened tonight?"

Ji Bei didn't know which specific thing he was referring to, but he inexplicably thought of the incident when Shi Wanwan sat on Xie Xuanzhi's lap.

He then said, "Your Highness has fought at the border for so many years and has never slept with a woman."

"Although the princess's status is not low, she is very beautiful. It is not impossible for the prince to sleep with her."

Xie Xuanzhi: "..."

What nonsense?

He looked at Jibei coldly. Jibei knew that he had probably said something wrong, but for a moment he didn't know which one.

Ji Bei scratched his head and said, "The prince has been running to the princess's mansion every day when he has nothing to do recently. I think he is interested in the princess."

"Your Majesty and the Princess are both of noble status. It is indeed inappropriate for you to have an affair without a matchmaker."

"How about you, Your Highness, kill the princess's adorable fiancé, and marry her home to sleep with her openly?"

He felt that it was abnormal that his prince had never been interested in women. What normal man would not like women?

From a selfish point of view, if his prince never got married or slept with a woman before his death, his trip to the world would have been in vain.

It was the first time that Xie Xuanzhi knew that his guard had made so many plans for his private affairs.

His phoenix eyes were half-closed, meeting Ji Bei's eyes full of expectation. He could no longer bear it, raised his foot, and kicked Ji Bei out.

Jibei: “…”

Did he say the wrong thing?

He got up and asked in confusion: "Could it be that the prince doesn't like the princess?"

"That's not right. If that were the case, why would the prince come to the princess's residence every day? And why would he hold the princess in his arms?"

Xie Xuanzhi: "..."

He felt that he had been too tolerant of Ji Bei during this period. This bastard actually started to meddle in his private affairs.

He said coldly: "Go back and receive fifty military sticks."

Ji Bei: "...Can it be a little less? After fifty blows of military sticks, I will no longer be able to protect the prince."

Xie Xuanzhi: "Then add ten more military sticks. From now on, every word you say will earn you ten more military sticks."

Jibei: “…”

He covered his mouth with his hand, determined not to say another word.

Xie Xuanzhi, however, was reminded of Ji Bei's words by the faint scent of a girl he had smelled when Shi Wanwan accidentally sat on his lap, and also...

He quickly calmed his mind.

He is a dying man, there is no need for him to harm irrelevant people.

On the morning of the second day, the empress came to the princess's mansion on the orders of Emperor Qianyuan.

When she came, she brought extremely generous rewards, including various pearls, jades, gems, silks and satins, and even a red coral that was as tall as a person.

When Shi Wanwan heard the news that the Queen was coming, she took Shen Yi and Feng Yiyong to greet the Queen in front of the princess's mansion.

When the queen came, she used a full set of ceremonial staff. In less than half an hour, the whole capital knew that the queen had gone to Princess Changping's mansion.

The queen narrowed her eyes slightly as she stood under the plaque of the princess's mansion.

She had fought with Princess Changping for more than ten years. Now Princess Changping was dead, while she was still alive. She felt that she had won.

Standing here at this moment, she felt that she had completely trampled Princess Changping under her feet.

Shi Wanwan bowed to her and said, "Greetings, Her Majesty the Queen!"

The Queen looked at her and smiled, "There's no need to be polite when we're family."

"Let me see you quickly! Wanwan is getting prettier and prettier."

Shi Wanwan flipped through the original owner's memories of the queen and knew that although the queen was the mother of a country, she was narrow-minded and disliked her very much.

The queen maintained her composure and smiled at this time, but it was just for show.

She smiled and invited the queen into the palace.

The Queen had heard before that Shi Wanwan had almost completely ruined the Princess's Mansion, and now she wanted to come and see how dilapidated the Princess's Mansion was.

She came in and saw the rockery covered with weeds and said, "Why is the rockery in such a state?"

"I remember that Changping loved this rockery the most and had embedded several night-shining pearls on it."

She saw the lotus leaves that had just sprouted tips and said, "Changping loves lotus the most and has collected many varieties of lotus."

"Every year, we use hot spring water to irrigate the garden. At this time of year, the flowers bloom in all shapes and sizes, which is really beautiful. I never expected it to become so dilapidated now."

When she saw the clear stream surrounding the garden, she said, "Changping used to love raising fish. This stream is full of koi of all colors."

"There's not even a single koi fish here now. It's really desolate."

She entered the house and frowned when she saw the simple tables and chairs: "Why is this place so plain? It doesn't look grand at all."

"Changping once arranged an exquisite flower arrangement on the table. This is the perfect time to put camellias in it."

She pointed to the camellia tree at the entrance and said, "Back then, this tree was well cared for. Its profusion of blossoms was a magnificent sight in the capital, but now it's become like this!"
