Princess, she is playing again

Chapter 18 Discovering the Snake Nest
county palace

For ordinary people, autumn is the most pleasant season when neither cold nor hot, but for Si Jingyu who suffers from cold poison, autumn is a headache.

In the gloomy study room, Si Jingyu was lying lazily in the teacher's chair, covered with a thin blanket, his brows were full of lethargy.

Si Bei walked in lightly, for fear of disturbing him, he quietly stood aside and waited for him to wake up.But the man who seemed to be sleeping calmly opened his eyes suddenly, "What's the matter?"

Si Bei knew that his prince was always alert when he slept, so he tried to be as light as possible, but still woke him up.I couldn't help feeling a little regretful in my heart, I would have come in later if I knew it earlier, it was rare for the prince to fall asleep.

"Huh?" Si Jingyu was a little displeased seeing Si Bei not speaking for a long time. His sword-like eyes swept towards Si Bei, and the cold air poured out of his body. I was surprised by the appearance.

Not daring to delay any longer, I hurriedly reported my intention in the future: "My lord asked my subordinates to investigate Miss Xu's affairs..."

Si Jingyu's furrowed brows relaxed slightly, and then his voice was soft, "Have you found it?"

"Miss Xu hasn't gone out these days, and there are no suspicious people around her. I heard that the day before entering the palace, the crown prince went to the waiting mansion, and then left angrily. After that, Miss Xu It's like a different person, not only occupying Miss Xu Er's good yard, but also breaking Miss Xu Er's fingers."

"Can you find out why the prince left angrily?" Si Jingyu's eyes tightened, he couldn't be more clear about the prince's character.He intuitively believed that the reason why the prince was angry and left had something to do with Xu Zhaoning in Kunning Palace forcing the prince to disregard his relationship with Xu Yanran.

Si Bei shook his head, and seeing his prince's expression turned cold, Fuzhi asked inwardly, "What does the prince mean, that there may be some kind of conspiracy between the crown prince and Miss Xu?"

Si Bei's expression became tense. If this is the case, wouldn't Xu Zhaoning have ulterior motives if he wanted to marry his prince?

"Keep an eye on the Zhongyonghou mansion for this king."

"Yes!"

After Si Bei went out, Si Jingyu closed his eyelids again, but the image of Xu Zhaoning inexplicably appeared in his mind, and his watery almond eyes impressed him even more.

In the Kunning Palace, he had carefully observed that when Xu Zhaoning faced the prince, there was no excitement or anticipation in his eyes, let alone admiration.According to the rumors, the image of His Royal Highness Chiai is completely inconsistent.

His intuition told him that it was unlikely that Xu Zhaoning would conspire with the prince.But if it wasn't for colluding with the prince, wouldn't the difference be too big?

On a new day, Xu Zhaoning was still asleep when he was awakened by the little green snake.

"Sisi..."

"You mean Lin Long demolished that broken courtyard?"

Xu Zhaoning came to her senses, seeing the little green snake nodding her head in confirmation, the evil spirit between her brows was completely released.Why did Lin Long demolish that broken courtyard?

Before she crossed over, the original owner had been living in that dilapidated courtyard. People in the Zhongyonghou Mansion would never set foot there unless necessary. After she moved out, no one should pay attention to it. But now Lin Long wants to demolish the courtyard. What is the reason?
Before he had time to think about it, Xu Zhaoning finished washing quickly, then wrapped the little green snake around his wrist, and strode towards the broken yard.

The Broken Courtyard is located in the most remote corner of the Zhongyonghou Mansion. From the current Shaoyuan, you have to go through more than half of the Houfu.As soon as Xu Zhaoning left the Shaoyuan, he saw many nurses rushing towards the broken courtyard, and vaguely heard them calling for friends.

"Hurry up, don't make Madam wait too fast."

"Okay, here I come, I'm going to prepare realgar."

"Realgar? Why prepare realgar?"

"Who knows, Madam told me again and again, you guys came to help me, these realgars are too heavy, I can't resist."

Xu Zhaoning's figure was light, and she deliberately concealed her aura, so the nursing homes did not notice her existence.

As the nurse said, there are a lot of realgar in that big bag, Xu Zhaoning squinted his eyes and thought, Lin Long just demolished the yard, why did he ask people to prepare realgar?
Xu Zhaoning's doubts were clearly explained when he arrived at the broken hospital.

The dilapidated small courtyard had long been turned into a pile of ruins, which was nothing but a big hole was dug out by digging three feet into the ground.

"What are you still doing in a daze, why don't you rush to pour the realgar in for me?" Lin Long was yelling at the nurse who was carrying the sack to pour the realgar in.

The sack was opened, realgars of different sizes were poured out in chunks, and rolled into the big pit.

The little green snake on Xu Zhaoning's wrist writhed uneasily.

"Uncomfortable?" Xu Zhaoning found a corner where people would not easily leave, and asked the little green snake with his hands up.

Anyone with a bit of common sense knows that realgar is the natural enemy of snakes. Isn't this Lin Long the shadow of a snake?
"Yes, master." The little green snake admitted, looking at Dakeng still with lingering fear, as if saying master, you should find a way.

"Master, look quickly, it's Xiao Hei, and those snakeskin bags beside him." Xiao Qing's voice was hurried, accompanied by faint trembling, obviously frightened.

Xu Zhaoning looked in the direction she pointed, and saw a man was grabbing a big black snake with his bare hands and putting it into a snakeskin bag, and there were several similar bags at his feet, inside which were surging stop.

Now Xu Zhaoning almost understood everything. Lin Long guessed that the broken courtyard was a snake nest, so he invited a professional snake catcher to catch all the snakes, and buried realgar here to prevent future troubles.

"Master, hurry up and save Xiao Hei and the others. Once a snake is caught by humans, it will definitely not be treated kindly." The little green snake was so anxious that it climbed onto Xu Zhaoning's wrist and climbed onto her shoulder, increasing its volume.

"Don't worry, Lin Long doesn't dare to touch these snakes." Xu Zhaoning sneered, and already had a rough guess as to how Lin Long would arrange these snakes.

"Hey, Sister Ning is here." Just as Xu Zhaoning was communicating with the little green snake, Lin Long spotted her and came forward to say hello.

"The madam is so excited. The second sister is unconscious on the bed. The madam doesn't stand by the bed and pour tea, but she still has the heart to bring someone to dig a hole for fun."

Xu Zhaoning smiled, and was not offended by Lin Long's words at all.Lin Long was choked by her words, and with a bit of annoyance, she said with a bit of gritted teeth: "The reason why you fell into a coma in bed was not caused by you little bitch. I got it back for Raner."

"Ma'am, what are you talking about!" Xu Zhaoning seemed to be startled, and his voice was raised a lot, "Second sister wants to kill her father. As her biological mother, you not only didn't reprimand her, but even offended her. How could you It can be like this, how can you be worthy of Lord Hou's sincerity towards you."

At this time, there were quite a few people standing inside and outside the broken courtyard, including Lin Long's confidantes, naturally there were guard servants, and even outside snake-catching masters.

Hearing the word "father killing" deliberately shouted out by Xu Zhaoning, everyone was shocked, and some bold people even started talking on the spot.

Lin Long didn't expect that Xu Zhaoning didn't play cards according to the routine. Seeing those discussions getting louder, she couldn't help but glared at Xu Zhaoning, "Shut up!"
