The princess has a crow's mouth

Chapter 76 Thank you for believing in me
Su Xiaoxiao followed Jun Ruoli into the secret passage in a daze, and walked all the way to the stone room at the end.

The furnishings in the stone room are like a simple small room, with a person sitting on the stone bed.His hands and feet were bound by iron chains made of fine steel, and the other end of the iron chain was nailed to the wall.

The man raised his head and glanced at Jun Ruoli and Su Xiaoxiao, then lowered his head again.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the man bound by iron chains in shock, isn't this the butler Zhu?Jun Ruoli brought him here?

Jun Ruoli looked at him coldly, and asked, "I don't know how you think about it?"

"Prince Li doesn't need to talk so much nonsense, I won't tell you anything!" Zhu Xing lowered his head and replied coldly.

"Since that's the case, don't blame me for not thinking about old love." Jun Ruoli said, with a stern look in his eyes.

"Fake benevolence and righteousness! Kill me if you have the ability, mother-in-law, are you still a man?" Zhu Xing spat and cursed.

Jun Ruoli was not annoyed, and confirmed that Zhu Xing knew the truth back then.He ignored Zhu Xing's words, took Su Xiaoxiao's hand and walked back.This Zhu Xingzhu butler, someone will treat him well.

Su Xiaoxiao looked confused, not sure what Jun Ruoli brought her here for?He said he wanted to tell her some truths, but he didn't tell her anything, and went back after turning around?
Unable to suppress the doubts in her heart any longer, Su Xiaoxiao asked, "What's going on? Why is Butler Zhu here? What do you mean by bringing me here?"

Jun Ruoli took her hand, did not stop, and said as she walked: "This is a very dangerous and important matter, I think I should not keep it from you so I brought you here. Zhu Xing belongs to His Majesty! "

"Your Majesty's person?" Su Xiaoxiao asked, "Your Majesty sent him to monitor you?"

"It's not just surveillance." Jun Ruoli's eyes sank, and she said thoughtfully, "He also wants my life!"

Su Xiaoxiao's heart sank suddenly. Although Jun Ruoli didn't say who he was, Su Xiaoxiao could feel that Jun Ruoli was referring to Emperor Mingzong.

"But why? You have no real power, and your health is not good. What kind of threat is there to an idle prince who doesn't even go to court?" Su Xiaoxiao expressed his doubts.

"As long as I am alive, it is a threat. My parents' death was planned by him alone. I am not weak and sick, but poisoned. It is very likely that Zhu Xing was the one who poisoned me, but I have no definite evidence yet. Got it." Jun Ruoli replied lightly.

Jun Ruoli's tone was very flat, as if she was talking about other people's affairs and had nothing to do with him.But this plain voice was like a thunderbolt, piercing through Su Xiaoxiao's ears and entering her heart.

Su Xiaoxiao stopped, Jun Ruoli had to stop too, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Are you poisoned?" Su Xiaoxiao said worriedly, "Then you... how to cure this poison? How...how..."

Seeing Su Xiaoxiao's incoherent speech and anxious expression, Jun Ruoli felt warm in her heart.He squeezed Su Xiaoxiao's hand, and replied: "Don't worry, I'm fine! The poison has been cured, brother Gu helped me."

"The poison is detoxified? Are you okay? Is it harmless to your body?" Su Xiaoxiao still asked worriedly.

"Don't worry! After the poison is removed, I am no different from ordinary people now." Jun Ruoli replied with a smile.

Su Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "That's good! That's good!"

Jun Ruoli smiled, didn't speak, and led Su Xiaoxiao to continue walking outside.

Su Xiaoxiao is still digesting the news she just heard, and when Jun Ruoli mentioned Brother Gu, it should be Gu Nianqing.It turns out that Gu Nianqing knows medical skills, so the two of them are so close?Then when she was sick last time, it was Gu Nianqing who helped her, right?
Fortunately, I was guiding Qiuyue because the government doctor was not good at medical skills, otherwise I would really cause trouble for Jun Ruoli.Now that Jun Ruoli's poison is cured, it's great!

However, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly thought of Zhu Xing and Emperor Mingzong again.She couldn't help but asked: "I just saw that Steward Zhu didn't intend to let go. Are you going to punish him? And you said that he is His Majesty's man, so he was arrested by you, won't His Majesty notice?" ?”

Jun Ruoli put the sincerity in her eyes, and said with a smile: "I have already made my people look like Zhu Xing, Your Majesty won't notice it. I will see 'Steward Zhu' wandering around in the mansion in the future." Go, just don't be surprised!"

Su Xiaoxiao nodded, and replied: "Don't worry, I won't reveal my secrets!"

"As for Zhu Xing, he will always let go!" Jun Ruoli said, "Brother Gu has hundreds of ways to torture people, Zhu Xing will regret that he didn't cherish the opportunity I gave him."

Su Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment, then replied: "You have a good relationship with Mr. Gu, but if he does such a thing for you, he is against His Majesty. Are you sure that he will not betray you? It seems a bit inhumane for me to say that." , but this matter must not be sloppy.”

Jun Ruoli raised her eyebrows slightly, and curled up the corners of her lips.He was very happy that Su Xiaoxiao was thinking of him, but it was still necessary to explain to her.

"Brother Gu's mother and my mother were handkerchiefs. Soon after my mother passed away, Brother Gu's mother died suddenly, and she was poisoned with the same poison as me. Brother Gu, like me, has been investigating the truth."

Hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao felt a little ashamed in her heart, and treated the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.Su Xiaoxiao was at a loss for a while, she pulled Jun Ruoli's sleeve and walked forward.

Jun Ruoli just pretended not to know what was wrong with her, and didn't poke her, allowing Su Xiaoxiao to drag him back to the room.

After closing the door, Jun Ruoli said to Su Xiaoxiao: "Let's rest early! You have to see someone tomorrow morning."

"Who are you seeing?" Su Xiaoxiao asked suspiciously, "Young Master Gu?"

Jun Ruoli shook her head, and replied: "Yingyi, your hidden guard. He has been following me before, and he will protect your safety from now on."

"Dark guards? I don't need dark guards! No one wants to kill me." Su Xiaoxiao refused.

"I can rest assured that someone will protect you." Jun Ruoli said softly, "And the situation is different now, so just listen to me!"

Su Xiaoxiao nodded and said sincerely: "Thank you."

Afterwards, the two imitated the experience of sleeping together last time, and put the pillow between them, Jun Ruoli slept on the outside, and Su Xiaoxiao slept on the inside.

Su Xiaoxiao was lying on the bed, not feeling sleepy, but she didn't dare to turn around, so she froze and did not move.

Jun Ruoli naturally noticed it, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and said with a smile: "Xiao Xiao, can't you sleep?"

Startled by Jun Ruoli's sudden sound, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help shaking, and replied: "No, I'm about to fall asleep!"

The news on Jun Ruoli's face was even worse, she turned sideways, poked Su Xiaoxiao's back with her finger, and said, "But I can't sleep!"

Su Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes and said angrily, "I can't sleep and count sheep! Don't delay my sleep."

Jun Ruoli said in a shameless tone, "But I think talking to you is more useful than counting sheep."

"Why didn't I know that my voice has the effect of helping sleep? Just stop making trouble, okay?" Su Xiaoxiao turned her back to Jun Ruoli, blushing slightly.

Jun Ruoli lay down slowly, looked at the ceiling and said, "Thank you."

Su Xiaoxiao was confused by this nonsensical sentence, and asked, "Thank you for what?"

Jun Ruoli replied: "Thank you for believing in me." More importantly, thank you for coming to my side, but he didn't say the second half of the sentence.

When Su Xiaoxiao heard the words, the corners of her mouth turned up, and her eyes were full of sweetness. "Thank you for trusting me, too."

Thank you even more for letting me know what it feels like to like someone...
