Ji Ling Xue ridiculed in her mind: You had no choice but to marry Ji Yu Qing was that my fault, are you telling me this to get my sympathy? Our beneficial relationship is related to you raising your status, I foresaw you would not agree easily.

 

Xiao Yi Chen stared at Ji Ling Xue, not missing any expression on her face.

 

Xiao Yi Chen said: "You haven't been married to me for three years, haven't violated the seven grounds, this prince will not divorce you, you best get rid of that idea."

 

Ji Ling Xue: Seven grounds...can I only divorce Xiao Yi Chen if I violate the seven grounds?

 

Xiao Yi Chen waited, still he didn't get Ji Ling Xue's reply, Ji Ling Xue's silence, made him feel even more powerless.

 

The rain outside the window gradually eased, Xiao Yi Chen who didn't receive a response from Ji Ling Xue after a long time stood up, looking from above he gazed at the top of Ji Ling Xue's head, after a while did he squeeze out, "It's very late, rest early." Having spoken he turned and walked to the door, pushing it open he walked out with large strides.

 

Ji Ling Xue followed Xiao Yi Chen with her eyes as his figure disappeared, Ji Ling Xue raised her hand to wipe the non-existent sweat from her forehead, smiling she said: "Safely avoided having to serve him in bed."

 

Ru Ge, who was stealthily hiding in a secret place, couldn't help smile hearing what was said.

 

Ru Ge: Ji Ling Xue, you did all that to avoid serving him in bed, only you could think of such a thing, if I was prince Chen, I would die in anger from you.

 

Xiao Yi Chen returned to his study, Chi Feng had been waiting there for him, seeing Xiao Yi Chen come in dripping from the rain, he blinked in shock.

 

Xiao Yi Chen walked to the door of the study, he had already used hi qi to dry his wet clothes, "You're not sleeping, what are you doing standing there?"

 

Chi Feng rubbed his nose, he couldn't hold back a smile: "I heard the prince's side courtyard had been blown into smithereens, of course I came out of concern, that foolish...e....your rightful princess is alright?"

 

Thinking of Ji Ling Xue, Xiao Yi Chen had a stomach full of anger, "She's very well, why are you suddenly concerned about her?"

 

Chi Feng smiled, pointing at the black metal rod on the table he said: "This was given to me by the housekeeper, he said it was found in the rubbles of the side courtyard."

Xiao Yi Chen quickly walked to the table, he picked up the metal rod to inspect the entire metal rod was black, some dust stuck to it, "This...what's it's use?" Such a metal rod wasn't needed to construct a house.

 

Chi Feng pinched his chin as he thought, "Prince, don't you find it strange, the prince's residence is so large, yet that lightning only hit the side courtyard today?"

 

Xiao Yi Chen nodded, walking to the bookshelf he took out a sheepskin map spreading it out on the table, this was a layout of the residence, Xiao Yi Chen pointed at a pavilion somewhere , "Thunder and lightning usually hit buildings which are tall, this pavilion is built on a false rock, it should be the highest point, the top of the pavilion is the shape of a gourd, yet it has not met with thunder and lightning, it seems to be very strange for the side courtyard to blow up..."

 

At the same time he pictured JI Ling Xue safely and soundly going to Yi Lan courtyard, the vein on Xiao Yi Chen's forehead throbbed, thinking of one possibility.

 

Chi Feng asked out of concern as he saw Xiao Yi Chen's complexion change irregularly: "Prince...what's wrong?"

 

Xiao Yi Chen waved his hand, ordering: "Call those two secret guards in charge of watching over the side courtyard, this prince needs to confirm something."

 

Chi Feng raised his eyebrow, turning around he went to carry out Xiao Yi Chen's order, all the while he was still pondering over the matter of the side courtyard being hit by lightning.

 

The secret guards noiselessly appeared in the study, Xiao Yi Chen asked about Ji Ling Xue's recent daily movements, as well as what Ji Ling Xue had done tonight.

 

The secret guards answered everything, then in the end they said: "Prince, an expert appeared by the princess's side a few days ago, these subordinates have always acted in accordance with prince's orders, we didn't allow them to notice we were shadowing them."

 

"An expert..." Xiao Yi Chen held his head in his hand as he contemplated...
