The Imperial Palace of the State of Chu.

Hua Guifei's birthday banquet, the king of Chu personally attended to celebrate Hua Guifei's birthday.

In the back garden of the palace, there are lights everywhere, and everyone is smiling.

No matter what the state of Chu is like now, the palace is still a luxurious scene, a birthday banquet, civil and military officials attended the celebration, and laughter continued.

The crown princess Shi Huade is also dressed up tonight, because the little emperor and grandson are too noisy tonight, and the nurse coaxed him to sleep before coming, it is late, and now, he is hurrying to the banquet with a palace maid who is waiting for him to give gifts to the mother concubine to celebrate her birthday.

On the road ahead, a person also came in a hurry.

She was wearing light green clothes, her head was lowered all the way, she looked panicked, she didn't know what she was rushing, and in a panic, she didn't see who was coming, not only did she not get out of the way, but even came over to the crown princess.

Yan'er, who was walking beside the crown princess, was completely defenseless, and let this reckless palace maid hit the princess headfirst.

The green-clothed palace maid was startled, and she exclaimed in panic: "It's none of my business, it's none of my business, spare my life......"

With a shake of her hand, a delicate bottle fell out of her hand and rolled aside, she hurriedly picked it up and retracted it into her arms in a panic.

"Bastard, seeing that the crown princess still doesn't salute!" Yan'er knew that she hadn't protected the princess well and made a big mistake, so she could only scold immediately: "Even the princess dares to hit it, have you eaten bear heart and leopard guts?"

As soon as the green-clothed palace maid looked up and saw the crown princess, she was stunned for a moment, and after being stunned for a moment, she immediately knelt down and begged: "The princess spares her life, the slave maid did not mean it, the princess, spare your life!"

Shi Huade was a little impatient, and he was anxious to go to the banquet to congratulate Concubine Hua on her birthday, but this palace maid looked a little strange.

After living in the palace for a few years, she felt unusual when she saw this palace maid, and the people who had lived in the palace for a long time were more cautious in their minds, so even if she was anxious, she still calmly asked: "Which palace are you from, walking in such a panic, what do you want to do?"

"I didn't ...... Didn't do anything. The green-clothed palace maid replied softly.

"The crown princess is asking you which palace is the girl who works in the palace?" Yan'er asked in a loud voice.

The green-clothed palace maid was submissive, but she didn't dare to answer her question.

Yan'er was immediately angry, and said loudly: "Cheap slave, which is the ignorant girl in the palace, raise your head and show the princess!"

The green-clothed palace maid was still shining, unwilling to answer, nor willing to raise her head.

Yan'er was so angry that she kicked at her, "Sneaky, you must have done some shady deeds!"

The green-clothed palace maid was kicked by her, and immediately fell to the ground and cried out in pain, her hand was not steady, and the bottle in her hand rolled down again.

She still wanted to pick it up, but Yan'er dragged her, Shi Huade stared at the bottle on the ground, and asked coldly, "What is this?" ”

If it weren't for the fact that tonight was Concubine Hua's birthday banquet, she didn't want to alarm the people at the banquet, and she had already called the guards to come and capture her.

However, this palace maid seems to be powerless, even if she doesn't call the guards, she can be subdued if she is here.

The green-clothed palace maid seemed to be very nervous about the small bottle and kept wanting to pick it up, but her strength was obviously not as good as Yan'er's, and she couldn't break free from Yan'er's clamps no matter how she earned it.

"The crown princess is the maidservant girl in the palace of the king of the sea. Yan'er finally recognized it and exclaimed, "You are from the Sea King's Mansion, how did you come to the palace?"

"Third Emperor Brother?" Didn't the Third Emperor have already left the Imperial City for a long time and returned to the border city station?

This bottle......

"Someone!" Shi Huade's eyebrows tightened, and he suddenly shouted.

What's more, after Prince Xuan and Prince Nan left the State of Chu and broke with King Chu, Lord Hai became the prince's biggest rival, and his people appeared in the palace, and tonight was the birthday banquet of the crown princess's mother, Concubine Hua Guifei......

This thing is too strange!

As soon as she heard Shi Huade shouting, the green-clothed palace maid who was still subdued by Yan'er suddenly struggled desperately, and she didn't know where she got the strength, so she broke free of Yan'er, and she didn't care about picking up the bottle, so she turned around and ran towards the flowers.

"The Crown Princess. The two guards arrived from nowhere, and came to salute in front of Schwartz.

"There's an assassin, go after it, a palace maid dressed in green!" Shi Huade pointed to the depths of the flowers.

When the two guards heard this, they immediately chased after them.

"Crown Princess......" Yan'er got up from the ground and looked at her.

"Pick up the bottle and see what's inside. Schwartz said busily.

Yan'er picked up the bottle as she said, poured out a little powder from it, and then looked up at Shi Huade, shook her head and said, "Niangniang, I don't know what it is." ”

Shi Huazhi felt a little uneasy in her heart, looked at the bottle, and thought about the direction where the palace maid hurriedly walked just now, suddenly, her face changed greatly, and she strode towards the direction of the banquet: "Take the bottle, quickly!"

Yan'er didn't know what she was thinking, but seeing that she was so anxious, she had no choice but to hold the bottle in her hand and quickly chased after her.

At the banquet, everyone was drinking and having fun, the crown prince Chu Lingjin saw that Shi Huade had not arrived so late, he was a little unhappy, and he was afraid that his mother and father would be unhappy, so he picked up the cup and stood up, and said to King Chu and Hua Guifei: "Qing'er has been unwell these days, Hua De has been taking care of him, probably tonight is because he has to take care of Qing'er, so he has not arrived so late, and I also ask my father and mother to forgive me. ”

The King of Chu smiled gently, and said gently: "It's okay, I also heard that Qing'er has been making trouble more than in the past in the past two days, and Hua De can take care of him." ”

Hua Guifei also smiled: "If it's inconvenient, just send a palace maid to go over and talk to her, I won't use it tonight, just take good care of Qing'er, and the palace knows that she is well-behaved." ”

Chu Lingjin still raised the quilt and said, "The son still has to pay tribute to his father and mother on behalf of Hua De." ”

With that, the cup was raised and sent to his mouth.

As soon as the rim of the glass touched his lips, he only tasted half a sip of wine, and at the entrance of the red carpet of the banquet, a person rushed over and shouted: "Don't drink, the wine is poisonous!"

These two words made everyone at the banquet suddenly change their faces.

Chu Lingjin also immediately threw down the glass, but he had already taken a sip of this glass of wine.

Before he could say anything, he suddenly felt a pain in his throat, which was like a fire, and when everyone looked at him, his lips were black, and he was clearly poisoned.

The palace maids and eunuchs who were waiting on the side suddenly screamed, and the king of Chu was also so frightened that her face was pale, and the guards immediately rushed over and surrounded everyone at the banquet.

"Someone...... Someone is coming!Spread the imperial doctor!" The King of Chu finally came back to his senses and immediately shouted in hindsight.

The courtiers present were all so frightened that they didn't dare to take a breath, and when Concubine Hua Guifei saw the prince's situation, she was so frightened that she almost fainted.

She rushed over and picked him up, looked at the king of Chu and cried: "Your Majesty, your emperor is helping!"

The imperial doctor quickly arrived and immediately began to give Chu Lingjin a rescue banquet, which was completely chaotic......

……

"You said, tonight I saw the maid next to Lord Hai walking around the palace, and this bottle was left by the palace maid?"

In the Xuanhua Palace, the King of Chu stared at Shi Huadi standing in the hall and asked in a deep voice.

The bottle was held in the hands of the Imperial Physician and was being studied.

If it hadn't been for the imperial doctor who arrived in time to expel the poison for the crown prince just now, at this moment, no one knows if Chu Lingjin would still be alive.

However, fortunately, the prince did not drink much, and Schwartz came in time.

Shi Huade looked back at King Chu's gaze and said in a deep voice: "Yes, the palace maid beside Erchen recognizes that the green-clothed palace maid is from the Sea King's Mansion." ”

She glanced back at Yan'er: "Yan'er, tell your father the truth what you know, if there is half a lie, be careful of your head." ”

Yan'er was so frightened that she couldn't stop trembling, walked to her side and knelt down, met the eyes of the king of Chu, and said softly: "Your Majesty, that palace maid's name is Lu Ying, she is a person from the Sea King's Mansion, and the slave maid once followed the crown princess and the prince to the Sea King's Mansion for a banquet, and at that time, Lu Ying has been following the sea king, and she should be the personal maid of the sea king." ”

"Are you sure?" King Chu's face sank, and he said coldly: "Do you know that slandering a prince is a great crime to destroy the nine clans?"

Yan'er was scared again, but it was not because of a weak heart, but purely because of the words "Destroy the Nine Clans".

"Your Majesty, what the slave said is true, the emperor can order someone to thoroughly investigate the Sea King's Mansion and find out the person, the slave and the maid believe that the slave and maid are not the only people who know Lu Ying. Her voice was slight, but she spoke clearly and clearly.

The King of Chu didn't speak, but just looked at the imperial doctor who was standing aside studying the bottle.

After a while, the imperial doctor took half a step forward, looked at him and said, "Back to the emperor, after the study of the old ministers, what is in this bottle is indeed highly poisonous, but it is ......."

"But what?" Shi Huade looked at him, it was about his husband, and he couldn't help but be anxious: "Imperial doctor, is this poisonous?"

"Back to the crown princess, this poison is really powerful. "It's powerful, but why has the time passed, and the poison on the prince's body doesn't seem to be as powerful as it was at the beginning?

However, how could he talk about these things in front of the emperor that even he couldn't guess? Isn't this an admission that he is not good at medicine?

"Father, it seems that there is really someone who wants to return the crown prince, and that person ......" Shi Huade looked at the king of Chu, and the next words were not spoken.

Slandering a prince is indeed a heinous crime, and his crime should be punished, especially when the prince of the sea is still the number one general of their Chu country, and even more, the people of their prince's party and the prince of the sea have been fighting openly and secretly, since the departure of the prince Xuan and the prince of the south, the struggle between the two sides has never stopped, these, although the king of Chu does not say it on his face, he is naturally clear in his heart.

Therefore, if you want to say bad things about Lord Hai, Shi Huade doesn't dare to say it nonsense.

But tonight, it is clear that someone wants to poison the prince, and the person of the sea prince appears in the palace again, who else is the person behind the scenes?
