"you!"

Xiao Jin raised her index finger, not expecting Ah'ao to speak so harshly, and she stood there dumbfounded.

Ah'ao raised her eyes, and without caring that she was only wearing underwear, she took a few steps closer.

"What did I warn you last time?" He tilted his head, letting his loose hair hang down, and narrowed his eyes, which did not sound kind.

Xiao Jin was startled.

——"If you dare to offend me again, I will chop you off and leave you in front of the gate of the Jin Mansion as a warning to everyone."

A'ao was taller to begin with, and she looked very imposing when standing in front of Xiao Jin. In terms of momentum, Xiao Jin had already lost by a large margin.

Don't be fooled by her being dressed in gold, jade, silk and satin and being respectfully addressed as Empress Zhaoyi. In fact, she is weak on the inside and is almost the same as an embroidered pillow except for the rough stitching.

The reason why Ah-yi felt that dealing with Xiao Jin-shi was easy and easy was because she understood her.

Last night, I made a special trip to ask about the relationship between Hengzhi and Li Shuyuan. After hearing him admit that he was an old friend of my mother, I felt relieved.

I got a lot of information from her for no reason and thought she had bad intentions.

Hengzhi also asked about her relationship with Mrs. Cui.

Ah-yi was so sleepy that she looked dazed. She lay on her back on the bed, looking at the gauze curtain above her head. Her speech was not clear. "I regard... regard her as my biological mother. Not long ago, she came to the palace to see me. I accidentally asked about your news and then I found out."

Hengzhi hummed in the darkness, and Ah'ao didn't have the energy to look up and ask him what was going on.

But in the end he said, no wonder on the second day of the New Year's banquet, Mrs. Cui sent a table of wine and food from Yanqinglou, but upon closer inspection, he found that they were all A'an's favorites.

This is generally the kind heart of a mother in the world.

Therefore, Li Shuyuan also helped A'ao a lot with the same feeling and loved her.

Jin Feng can be regarded as a typical example of a villain who suddenly became rich. Compared with other ministers in the court, he has limited talents and learned a lot, and he rose to power by relying on his little cleverness.

Therefore, he did not pay much attention to his children's education. Although his family was well-off, he had never hired a proper teacher to teach poetry and prose. He was even less concerned about the upbringing of his daughters, who only learned needlework from their mother.

Xiao Jin's mother was not a lady from a wealthy family and she did not have much knowledge.

Therefore, under the upbringing of her parents, Xiao Jin developed the habit of bullying the weak and fearing the strong, which was quite natural.

"You... you dare!" Xiao Jin shrank back behind the maid, mainly because she was afraid of the axe that Ah-yi had picked up from the corridor when she approached. "My father, my father is an official of the dynasty! He holds an important position in the Secretariat!"

"Important position." Ah's voice rose and she continued her words seamlessly, "Do you know where the word zhongshu comes from and what it is used for?"

"You'd better not come here to provoke me for no reason." Ah'ao raised the blade high and blew it as if unintentionally, which made Xiao Jin's hair fall to the bone.

After the intimidation, Ah'ao glanced at the dazed masters and servants in front of her, and felt that the anger she had felt at being forced to get up had almost dissipated.

My waist aches and my legs ache as well, all because of the nonsense I did last night.

Ah-yi stood up straight with all her strength and said no more, "Tell me, what brings you here so early in the morning? What's your purpose?"

The handle of the axe is long, and one of the handles is placed on the ground, which can be used as half a walking stick. This is also what Yingen uses to kill mice and wild cats at night. He puts one of the handles under the corridor and can pick it up at any time.

The maid plucked up her courage and explained Xiao Jin's purpose of visit.

"My lord, my princess, because of a fire in the entire West Palace last night, most of our queen's palace was also burned down, so, so..." The maids followed their master and most of them bullied the weak and feared the strong.

Now that he saw that the other party was a princess and looked ferocious, he no longer had the confidence.

"explain."

The maid was yelled at, closed her eyes tightly, and gritted her teeth, pouring out all the information, "So I want to move into your Changsheng Palace temporarily. Please move to the Buddhist temple next to the East Palace, and move back after the palace is renovated and everything is ready!"

It turns out that the plan was to take over the Changsheng Palace.

Seeing the little girl shrinking back timidly, Ah'ao smiled.

Ah-yi also knew where the Buddhist temple next to the East Palace was. In the past, anyone who made a mistake, from the princes and princesses to the concubines, would be punished to meditate in the Buddhist temple.

But now she is the only princess in the court. For Shen Zhuo, if a concubine made a mistake, he would just kill her directly, so there is no need for this.

The only good thing about this Buddhist temple is that it is very close to Chong'an Hall. As for the Changsheng Hall where I live now, even if it is more comfortable, it is equivalent to being imprisoned here. How can I find a chance to check Chong'an Hall?

If Chunxia wants to marry Youbei, this is her last chance.

Seeing her hesitation and unclear expression, Xiao Jin was afraid, but she couldn't bear to give up this spacious palace and splendor, so she bit the bullet and negotiated, "If you don't mind the old temple, it's not impossible to find another place."

The arrogant tone made Ah'ao laugh from the bottom of her heart.

All that Xiao Jin did, including the verbal offense when they first met, was just because she wanted to live in the so-called queen's bedroom, the spacious Changsheng Hall.

So this fire even burned the Chong'an Hall, but only the Changsheng Hall remained intact. It's really interesting.

Ah'ao stared at Xiao Jinshi, and seeing her evasive gaze, she thought there was something fishy going on, and she had to trick her to get some leverage over her.

"Yes, the Concubine Zhaoyi is away and knows more than me. My Changsheng Palace is old and in disrepair, and it is all made of wood. How come the other palaces were burned down, but this one is still intact?" Ah'ao smiled slowly, "Really, it's God's blessing, I must repay God." Xiao Jin rolled her eyes quietly and muttered, "You might as well repay me. If I hadn't asked someone to apply tung oil, you would have..."

He was halfway through saying this when he suddenly realized it.

Ah'ao was so relaxed and happy that she smiled like a flower, extremely satisfied. This little Jin was indeed smart and quick-witted, and could be used the best.

"You!" Xiao Jin was no longer afraid of the machete in Ah-yi's hand. She walked to the corridor and grabbed her sleeve, "You cheated me!"

Ah-yi turned to look at her with a provocative expression, "It's your fault that you took the bait."

Arson is a capital crime that can lead to the extermination of an entire family, not to mention that Xiao Jin was a concubine in the palace. Setting fire to the palace would also be an additional charge of treason. Even if the entire family were to die several times, it would be difficult to atone for their sin.

Xiao Jin looked around nervously. Fortunately, apart from her own servants, she did not let the Jinwu Guards follow in, so the secret was still kept secret.

"You, you are not allowed to tell anyone. I will let you move wherever you want, and you can have as many exhibits and furnishings as you want! Anyway, Lady Li has been convicted and suspended from her post, and His Majesty said that I will have the final say." Xiao Jin came closer to A'ao, her voice trembling a little.

Ah-yi placed her palm across her chest, disgusted by the strong scent of powder on Xiao Jin-shi, and pushed her away with disdain, "I will move to the Buddhist hall, and it is not a bad idea to give this Changsheng Hall to Empress Zhaoyi."

Xiao Jin breathed a sigh of relief.

"But, as for how to arrange everything, the Concubine Zhaoyi must listen to me." Ah'ao also put on an appearance of bullying, "You also know that I am a princess who is married to a foreign country. I cannot have my life in danger. You can't kill me to silence me. But if you listen to me, I will marry you in the summer at the latest, and I will not disclose the arson."

Ah-yi raised her hand and wiped the cold sweat from Xiao Jin's forehead, and said in a softer voice, "During these last days, you are doing well and I am doing well, isn't it wonderful?"

Having said this, Ah'ao took a few steps back and quietly admired Xiao Jin's conflicted look.

Sometimes pie really does fall from the sky. Just when she was planning to start over and look for some opportunities, the opportunity came to her door.

Given Xiao Jin's personality and her relationship with Jin Feng, she did not dare to tell her father about such a disaster. She could only swallow the bitter pill quietly and finally agreed to do whatever he asked.

After waiting for a while, A'ao was so cold that she found a cloak from the house and put it on. Only then did Xiao Jin clench her fists and make up her mind.

"You have to promise me and sign a document. As long as it is within my ability, I will agree to it." Xiao Jin still looked reluctant, but she was helpless.

"Okay." Ah-yi agreed readily. After all, she was not the one who left the trouble. "You come in with me, and the others don't have to."

After waving to the servant, Xiao Jin followed A'an into the house.

Fortunately, when I left the note in the morning, Hengzhi had already ground the ink and opened the pen, so I saved a lot of effort and could just write it directly.

Xiao Jin looked around and couldn't help but say with disdain, "How can a girl's bed be so messy?"

She was only two years older than A'ao, and was still a pampered little girl herself, and her complaints were cute and adorable.

The good thing about Ah'an is that as long as they are grasshoppers on the same rope, she can find some advantages in the grasshopper next to her.

So now looking at little Jin, she seems much cuter.

"Don't get close to my bed!" Suddenly remembering the mess on it from last night, Ah-yi immediately stopped Xiao Jin and said, "Be careful or I'll beat you up."

"Why are you so fierce?" Xiao Jin took her hand away embarrassedly.

After writing, Ah-yi blew away the ink and immediately asked Xiao-jin to come over to sign. She even wrote a clause in it that said "you cannot ask the other party to do something that is against reason." Ah-yi felt that she was really kind-hearted.

Unexpectedly, after reading it, Xiao Jin was so determined that she not only signed her name, but also pulled out the gold hairpin from her hair, cut her index finger, and pressed her handprint.

Ah's expression was complicated when she took a closer look at the signature.

"Jin, Jin Niuniu? Is that your name?"

Little Jin sucked her fingers bravely, like a kitten baring its teeth and claws, "Why! Are you laughing at me!"

Ah's expression was speechless, as if she had walked into a Taoist temple by mistake while praying to Buddha.

Xiao Jin carefully packed up the documents and put them in her arms. She was much bolder than before and asked, "When are you moving out?" She touched the rosewood table and said, "This table and this study are really nice."

"I can pack up and move right away, but you have to do something for me first." Ah'ao crossed her arms, looking solemn.

Xiao Jin disagreed.

"Jinniuniu." Ah'ao raised the corners of her mouth in warning and called out through gritted teeth.

"Just say no!" Xiao Jin reluctantly withdrew her gaze and complained, "You will really suffer if Prince Youbei becomes your husband in the future."

Ah-yi was too lazy to pay attention to her childish talk and said directly, "I need you to send someone to write a letter immediately to inform His Majesty that it was because you found me talking about the late emperor in the palace and reprimanded me, but I contradicted you, so you sent me to the Buddhist temple to meditate."

Xiao Jin nodded, half understanding, "And then?"

"Find me another effective statue of the God of Wealth."
