My best friend is wearing a double body! Marry the emperor! Help me win the throne

Xue Youli shook his head, "No, this matter ends here."

Banxia frowned in confusion, "But if we just let the mastermind go, wouldn't Jixiang's death be too unjust?"

Xue Youli tapped her forehead with his finger, "Jixiang chose this path, and her death was not unjust."

If she had not studied medicine, if she had not learned to identify herbs from her grandfather, and had smelled that there was something wrong with the cream, she would have applied it directly on her face.

What awaits her is either disfigurement or death by poisoning.

Xue Youli is a principled person, but being principled does not mean being overly kind.

Kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself.

Banxia quickly explained, "Master, I'm not trying to excuse Jixiang. I just don't want to let go of the villain who really wants to harm you!"

Xue Youli patted her shoulder and said, "Don't worry, your master is not a pushover. Their trick didn't work this time, but there will definitely be another one. Let's wait for the opportunity and strike at their weakest point."

She also didn't want to forgive the person who murdered her, but she had checked in the gossip book that the entire poisoning process was carried out by Jixiang alone.

The other party has a family as a backer, so in the absence of evidence, she can only sit back and do nothing.

Once she gets the chance, she doesn't mind uprooting those people and their families!

……

On the other side, Murong Che had just finished his morning court when he heard the news of a palace maid being executed in Lingyun Palace.

"Wang Defa, how did you choose the people in the Jingshifang? You dare to send something that was used to poison the master to Shuiyuexuan?"

Wang Defa sensed the man's cold and angry aura and quickly knelt down to confess his guilt. "I have failed to perform my duties properly. Your Majesty, please punish me!"

Murong Che glared at him. After a moment's silence, the stern anger between his brows dissipated a little. "I'll record your offense first. You should pick a few smart palace maids and send them to Lingyun Palace."

"The slave obeys the order."

?

"What? Did that idiot Jixiang poison someone and get beaten to death? And now the Emperor has sent four more palace maids to Xue Youli?"

When Shen Ruolan received this news, she was furious. "There are only six palace maids in my palace. Xue Youli is only a sixth-rank maid. What qualifications does she have to be on equal footing with me?"

Xue Qingyao poured her a cup of tea and said, "Sister, have a cup of tea to cool down. Actually, even if Sister Xue has a maid, she is just a beauty. How can she be compared with you, sister?"

Shen Ruolan narrowed her eyes coldly, "That's right, my father is a veteran of two dynasties and has made great military achievements. What can Xue Youli compare with me?"

Xue Qingyao advised again, "Jixiang's failure is enough to prove that Xue Youli is a cautious person. If we want to catch her mistakes, we must be patient and not be impatient."

She originally thought that she had lived her life again and knew everything that would happen in the future.

Who would have thought that Xue Youli would appear as a variable.

It seems that there will be many tough battles to fight in the future, and I can't underestimate the enemy anymore.

After Shen Ruolan's plan to poison Xue Youli through Jixiang failed, she regarded Xue Qingyao as her military advisor.

At this moment, she picked up the tea beside her and drank it in one gulp. "Okay, I'll listen to my sister. Let's discuss it in detail."

?

The palace examination is approaching, and in order to select talents, Murong Che also attaches great importance to the questions of the palace examination.

He has recently been discussing with several cabinet ministers where to start with the questions.

Today, several university scholars held different opinions and the discussion lasted until 11:30 am but no conclusion was reached.

"My dear ministers, you have worked hard. The night is getting late. Please go back. We will discuss this matter tomorrow."

"Yes, I will take my leave."

After they left, Wang Defa walked in and asked respectfully, "Your Majesty, would you like to return to the Hall of Eternal Life to rest today?"

"Ah."

Murong Che had too many things to worry about and was indeed very tired.

But after taking a shower, my mind became clear again.

He thought about what happened in Lingyun Palace this morning and was worried that Xue Youli was frightened, so he decided to go over and see her.

However, he had turned over Xue Youli's sign for two consecutive nights. If others knew that he went to Lingyun Hall again tonight, it would definitely bring her more envy, jealousy and hatred.

So Murong Che dismissed the palace maids serving in the hall, changed into night clothes, and slipped out of the Changsheng Hall through the window.

He was familiar with every tree and blade of grass in the palace. After avoiding the guards patrolling at night, he quickly arrived at Lingyun Palace.

Lingyun Palace, Shuiyue Pavilion.

Banxia sprinkled the flower petals she had picked today into the bathtub, placed clean clothes behind the screen, and then respectfully said to Xue Youli, "Master, the water temperature in the bathtub is just right. You can bathe now."

Xue Youli was so engrossed in reading medical books at night that it was almost dawn when she felt sleepy.

Thinking that her birthday was less than half an hour away, she decided to take a flower petal bath and greet her fifteenth birthday with a fragrant aroma.

However, even though she had been in the book for more than a month, she was still not used to someone watching her while she took a bath.

"Banxia, ​​I left a lot of barbecue from the kitchen tonight. Xiaopingzi and Xiaoanzi are still on duty, so bring the barbecue over and have a midnight snack with them."

"Okay, thank you, Master!"

Banxia is a foodie. She has eaten Xue Youli’s improved version of barbecue, which is even more delicious than the one made by the chef of Zuixianlou.

After hearing what Xue Youli said, she happily left the bathroom.

After she left, Xue Youli took off her clothes, walked into the bathtub, and took a comfortable flower petal bath.

There was mist curling in the bathtub, and she leaned against the edge with her eyes closed, feeling so comfortable.

To be honest, although the harem did not have the colorful entertainment activities of modern times, she did not have to stay up late to perform surgery every day, nor did she have to worry about patients taking knives to the hospital to cause trouble. She had plenty of time every day to do what she liked. This kind of life was really leisurely and relaxing.

Of course, if it weren't for those annoying women who kept causing trouble for her and fighting her to the death, her life would definitely be more comfortable!

Xue Youli complained a few words in her heart, completely unaware that a dark shadow had opened the window and slipped in silently.

Murong Che just saw Banxia close the door and go out, and guessed that Xue Youli should be here.

Unexpectedly, when he stood still and looked clearly at the wisps of mist filling the room, he realized that he had mistakenly entered the bathroom.

Through the screen, he could see the pretty figure soaking in the bathtub.

Do not look at what is inappropriate. It is not a gentleman's behavior to peek at others taking a bath.

Murong Che struggled internally for a moment and decided to go out first and wait for Xue Youli to finish taking a shower before going to find her.

Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he accidentally kicked over the incense burner placed against the wall.

Bang!

Xue Youli heard the noise behind the screen and immediately opened her eyes. "Banxia, ​​you guys finished your midnight snack so soon?"

Murong Che looked down at the overturned incense burner without saying a word. Instead, he held his breath as if he was guilty.

Xue Youli was soaking in the warm water, feeling so comfortable that her head was fuzzy. She didn't notice anything unusual behind the screen. "You've come just in time. Come and rub my back."
