Putting down the bowl, Chi Feng bowed and said, "Princess, I have been ordered to ask you a few questions. I hope you will tell me the truth."
Ji Lingxue nodded.
Chi Feng asked, "Two days ago, on August 13, did you, Princess, have dinner with Young Master Ji at Wangshan Tower?"
Ji Lingxue nodded, "Yes, I haven't seen my brother for a long time, so I invited him out for dinner. Is there any problem? I remember that I paid for the meal that day, so I didn't eat a free meal."
After thinking for a while, Ji Lingxue continued, "I have always kept a low profile when I go out, and I have never brought shame to the prince..."
Chi Feng was speechless for a while, this was not what he wanted to ask...
Ji Lingxue recounted the details of the meal she had with Ji Mingyang at Wangshan Tower that day. Of course, she omitted the part about her displeasure when she saw Xiao Yichen's calligraphy.
Chi Feng had no chance to interrupt. The princess was very cooperative and he knew everything he wanted to know.
After sitting for a cup of tea, Chi Feng stood up and said goodbye and left.
Watching Chi Feng's back as he walked away, Mo Xiang let out a long breath. She was so scared that she thought the prince had really discovered something.
Ji Lingxue patted Mo Xiang on the shoulder and said, "What are you afraid of? Even if the sky falls, I will hold it up."
Mo Xiang curled the corner of his mouth and asked tentatively: "What would happen if the prince knew what we did?" Would he be so angry that he wanted to kill someone
Ji Lingxue shrugged, "Don't worry, I have a strong backer, at most I will divorce him."
Mo Xiang thought: Princess, you are the princess, the prince will not touch you even if he is angry, but it is different for me, maybe I will be the first one to be operated on...
In the study, wisps of mist rose from the incense burner, and the room was filled with a faint scent of sandalwood.
Behind the desk, Xiao Yichen was holding a book in his hand. He hadn't turned a page for the whole morning. He glanced towards the door from time to time, waiting for Chi Feng to come back.
Xiao Yichen threw the book in his hand on the desk in annoyance, "Chi Feng's efficiency is too low. I just asked a question, and he hasn't come back in such a long time?!" He paced around the room with his hands behind his back in annoyance.
"Your Highness..." Chi Feng rushed into Xiao Yichen's study room and almost bumped into Xiao Yichen who was pacing.
Xiao Yichen frowned and looked up and down at Chi Feng, who was sweating profusely. "What's wrong with you? Why do you look like you were fished out of the water?"
Chi Feng smiled awkwardly and helplessly, "My Lord... The reason why I am like this is all because of your princess."
Xiao Yichen looked at Chi Feng with gloating expression, "What's going on?" It was really unprecedented that Chi Feng would suffer a loss one day.
Chi Feng was like a wilted vegetable. He found a place to sit down and then complained, "Your Majesty, you will never guess what she served me?"
Xiao Yichen thought for a moment and said, "She won't treat you with delicacies from land and sea. This I know."
Chi Feng twitched his lips and told all about the cold treatment he received from Ji Lingxue, "So... you should send her some furniture. Her life in the side yard is really miserable."
Xiao Yichen nodded, waiting for Chi Feng to get to the point.
Chi Feng added: "Two days ago, the princess went to Wangshan Tower with Young Master Ji, and there was nothing suspicious about their whereabouts."
Xiao Yichen brushed off the non-existent dust on his body and said nonchalantly, "Sometimes, what you hear isn't necessarily true."
Huh? Chi Feng opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, but why did he feel that Ji Lingxue's words were clear and logical, and she didn't seem to be lying. She had no reason to destroy her husband's calligraphy, right
