    Huaxi could not remember clearly when Ouyang Zheng left. She had been sitting in a chair and staring at the window in a daze. The gentle warmth on her forehead was still there, but she was the only one left in the room.

    ¡°Dong dong, dong dong¡ª¡ª¡± The knock on the door brought back Hua Xi¡¯s wandering thoughts, ¡°Who is it?¡±

    "Go back to the princess, the prince is here." Bai Lan shouted outside the door.

    "Okay, I'll come right away."

    Hua Xi stood up and walked to the dressing table. He raised his hand to take off the hairpin and rubbed it in his hand for a long time. The tentacles of the colorful twin butterflies moved as if they were living creatures.  The red gold rose in the middle was exactly the same as the pattern on the dress she once wore.

    Huaxi raised her hand and put the hairpin back into her hair. The diamond-shaped bronze mirror in front of her was bright, and the light could discern people. She looked at the colorful butterflies flying in her hair and playing with the flowers, and couldn't help but smile, "You don't know the meaning of roses.  I actually chose this trick I don't know if it's a coincidence, or if you and I are really destined"

    "Hua Xi, are you getting up?"

    Susukino's voice came from outside the door, and Huaxi hurriedly got up and went to open the door.

    "Dad, you're here." Huaxi welcomed Susukino Xin into the door and helped him sit down in the outer hall, "Cui Ming, go and give Dad a taste of the Qingxi white tea brought back from Feng County."

    Seeing that his daughter's expression was normal, with no sign of panic or worry, Susukino felt relieved and asked, "You asked Bai Lan to send someone to deliver the letter back. How is the situation going now?"

    Hua Xi told Susukino Shin what happened today, and Susukino Shin was so angry that he stood up and said, "Bai Lan, come in."

    Bai Lan came in in response, and knelt on the ground as soon as she entered the door, "This subordinate has neglected his duty, please punish me!"

    "Dad, you can't blame Bai Lan entirely for this." Hua Xi was worried about Susukino's punishment for Bai Lan, so she hurriedly tried to dissuade her, "Bai Lan has been following me these past few days and didn't notice anything unusual in the yard. It's understandable. Dad, you  Just spare her this time!"

    "I handed you over to Bai Lan for protection. She didn't fulfill her duties and she deserves to be punished. This time someone around you was bribed. It's not an exaggeration for you not to find out beforehand. But she didn't know anything about it. That's really wrong.  . If you don't punish her, how will she protect you if something like this happens again when I'm not around?" Susukino Shin patted Huaxi's hand, "I know you care about the people under you, but this time you must  It¡¯s a punishment, please stop trying to persuade dad.¡±

    Bai Lan also kowtowed and apologized, "Princess, this slave voluntarily accepts the punishment. Please, Princess, don't plead for me any more!"

    Huaxi didn¡¯t know what to do, so she had to beg Susukino and said, "Dad, if you want to punish me, you won¡¯t stop me, but it¡¯s time to wait for this matter. I¡¯ll punish you again. Now I¡¯m going to punish Bailan. Who will serve me?"

    "Okay, for your sake, I can spare her today, but when she returns to Tiandu, she will definitely be punished." After Susukinoxin finished speaking, he sternly said to Bai Lan, "Bailan, because of your negligence, she  Someone has falsely accused the princess and returned to Tiandu. You will go to the execution hall to receive one hundred whips, and everyone else will receive thirty, as a warning. If he does it again, he will be punished without mercy."

    Hua Xi listened on the side, secretly frightened. She did not expect the punishment to be so severe. At the same time, she became more and more confused about what kind of power her father held in his hands.

    Bai Lan accepted the order and retreated. Suo Yexin motioned Hua Xi to sit down. Seeing her poor expression, he asked, "Do you think I punished Bai Lan too harshly?"

    "Well, there are some" Hua Xi paused, "But a team must have their own rules, otherwise it will be a mess. Dad, you must have your reasons for punishing them like this."

    Susukino nodded happily, "It's best if you understand If you were a boy, dad would definitely give these people in his hands to you, but it's a pity Don't blame dad for hiding their affairs from you  ¡­¡±

    "I saved it. Dad didn't hide it from me. If he really wanted to hide it from me, he wouldn't have let Bailan follow me openly." Huaxi confirmed today that Susukino Shin has his own forces, and these forces cannot be let go.  In the open, this is probably one of the reasons why he can help Susukino wait for the throne and maintain a detached status in the court.

    Susukino sighed and said, "Yes, Dad doesn't want you to get involved. These people and things are all shady. Once you get caught up in them and can't control them, you may be killed. Dad doesn't want them to become a burden to you.  "

    "I know that dad is doing this for my own good. I am a daughter, so I am not the right person to control such a team." Huaxi Yun smiled lightly. She was not good at power, so she didn't care about these things.  Take heart.  She pushed the tea cup in front of Susukino Nobu, "Dad, I'm tired, let's have a drink of water!"

    Suo Yexin took the teacup and took a sip, while Huaxi continued: "However, Bai Lan cannot be entirely blamed for this incident, I am also responsible." Huaxi then asked Yizhen's coma on the road, the abnormality of the jade comb, and the suspicion of Xun Rou's death.  Everyone agrees with Susukino.

      After hearing this, Susukino thought for a moment, "What are your plans?"

    Hua Xi collected his thoughts and said: "First of all, Yu Shu is a very suspicious person. Although I have a bad relationship with my aunt, because Yu Shu has been with my aunt for many years and our relationship is not normal, my aunt does not believe it completely. I am not in the way.  For the sake of my aunt, I will not touch her for the time being. I will only wait for my father to come and discuss with you before settling the matter. Furthermore, Jin Huan and the others were not bribed just this time. I am afraid that someone else had already planned it and buried the secrets in our house.  As for whether those four are all chess, that's not necessarily the case. It's just that the four of them are often together. It is inevitable that people with ulterior motives will seize the opportunity and force them to submit. I would like to ask my father to check them again.  A few people¡¯s wealth.¡±

    Susukino Xinying said: "I will leave the matter of the jade comb to someone to deal with. As for the four maids, I will send people back to the sky to investigate overnight. I think there will be news early tomorrow morning. Time is tight, I'm afraid it won't be until half an hour.  Will you be able to get those maids to change their story? If you can't change your story in time before the emperor sends someone to investigate, it will be of no help in proving that you secretly changed the fragrant recipe."

    Hua Xi nodded in agreement, "Dad is worried. I have also thought about it. In fact, the most important thing about the whole thing is the reason for Xun Rou's death. I guess the essential oil she used must have been secretly changed, and Mulan will use fake fragrance formula."  You came to identify me, just to make the evidence against me more abundant But these are no longer important. The most important thing now is to prove that she did not die from those essential oils. In this way, her death has nothing to do with the fragrance. I will not change it.  It's not important to change the recipe. That way, I can get rid of the suspicion of harming others. But it's not appropriate for me to say this myself. Others will say that I'm making excuses, so I have to ask someone who can speak powerfully to testify.  . I¡¯m worried that the person doing the autopsy is unreliable, and it will be difficult to turn over.¡±

    "Dad, who did the emperor send to do the autopsy this time?"

    "It's the deputy director of the Ministry of Justice and a medical administrator from the Imperial Hospital." Susukino Shin frowned, "The deputy director of the Ministry of Justice is from the Xun family, and the other doctor, He, is a famous weakling. He is most afraid of causing trouble. I'm afraid that he will do something.  If the two don't help each other, there will be big trouble. But for now, the only way to deal with it is to start with him."

    "I'm not asking him to commit perjury, I just want him to tell the truth." Hua Xi added, "I'm just afraid that the Xun family will interfere with it."

    Susukino Xin secretly thought that this matter was not aimed at Huaxi from the beginning. The purpose of the person behind it was to provoke a conflict between the Xun family and Prince Xin's palace, and to make King Zhidu, who had always remained neutral, turn against him. Killing three birds with one stone.  But what Susukino couldn't figure out was who could benefit from this?

    He raised his head and said to Hua Xi: "Don't worry about this, I will send someone to do it. But there is one thing I want to ask you. How did you know that there was another reason for Xun Rou's death?"

    Hua Xi paused for a moment, his eyes wandering, wondering whether he should tell Susukino that Ouyang Zheng found out the letter?

    Seeing that Huaxi was silent and his expression was not as indifferent as usual, Susukino smiled, "What do you think, dad? Let's see if dad's guess is right?"

    "Well, is it Feili, Leyi or Ouyang Zheng?"

    Looking at Susukino's ambiguous smile, Huaxi's forehead jumped twice and said helplessly: "Dad, please stop teasing me, I'll just tell you Yes, it's Ouyang Zheng!"

    "Didn't he leave early in the morning? When did he tell you this?"

    "Hey, he never left Bieyuan. He didn't leave until you came."

    "Yes!" Susukino nodded understandingly, glanced at Huaxi's bun, and smiled, "It seems that Prince Ouyang is still a caring person. Huaxi, tell me honestly, are you also interested in him?" (note)  Please visit our website: www.hlnovel.com
