Chapter 271: Who I'm Recruiting to Provoke Again
was reprimanded by Wan'er, and the green-clothed palace maid immediately knelt down and admitted her mistake: "Sister Wan'er, the ginseng soup that the slave maid served to the princess before accidentally knocked it over. [Dance Ruo Debut]"
So the slave went back to the kitchen and boiled another bowl for the princess.
Su Ruoxi glanced at the ginseng soup in the palace maid's hand and asked, "Where did you knock over the ginseng soup just now?" ”
was personally interrogated by Su Ruoxi, and Cui'er suddenly trembled with fright.
"Back to ...... Back to the princess's words, it is...... It's on the edge of this pool! ”
"Ahh What happened to the fish in this pool? ”
Cui'er glanced up at the pool, only to see that all the fish in the pool were dead.
Su Ruoxi thought suspiciously for a moment and sent the four palace maids who raised fish back.
She thought, she should know what was going on.
"Cui'er, the bowl of ginseng soup that I overturned just now, is there still residual juice?"
Cui'er shook her head and replied, "Princess forgive me, when Cui'er walked to this stone corridor before, she accidentally stepped on a stone and accidentally poured the entire bowl of ginseng soup into the pool. ”
"What about the bowl of ginseng soup?"
Su Ruoxi continued to ask, she suspected that the bowl of ginseng soup sent by Cui'er was poisonous, so she poisoned all the fish in this pond.
"The bowl is still there! The slave and maid will go back to the kitchen now and bring the bowl to the princess!" ”
Cui'er said very excitedly, Su Ruoxi nodded, and waited for Cui'er to bring the bowl of ginseng soup before.
After Cui'er left, Wan'er also thought of the suspiciousness.
"Miss, do you suspect that the bowl of ginseng soup that Cui'er sent before was poisonous?"
"Hmmm! If it weren't for Cui'er's unintentional spilling over the ginseng soup in the pool, who do you think has a deep hatred for these fish and wants to poison them? ”
Receiving Su Ruoxi's affirmation, Wan'er showed a scared expression.
"Who is so bold as to want to poison you, Miss?"
"If it weren't for Cui'er's carelessness, the consequences would be really unimaginable!"
Wan'er said, the expression on her face showed a hint of anger.
Su Ruoxi also wants to know the answer, in this palace, she doesn't have any enemies, who wants to harm her?
It didn't take long for Cui'er to bring the bowl that had been filled with ginseng soup before.
Su Ruoxi took the bowl in her hand and checked it, but fortunately, there was still residual juice in the bowl, she put it on the tip of her nose and smelled it, and found that the soup was indeed highly poisoned.
Right! Not an ordinary poison, but a highly toxic one.
It only takes one sip and can kill in the blink of an eye.
"Wan'er, go find the prince and come back!"
Su Ruoxi's eyes were cold, and he ordered in a cold tone.
Wan'er didn't know what was going on, but when she saw that Su Ruoxi's face was not good-looking, she immediately did as she was told.
Cui'er was so frightened by Su Ruoxi that she knelt on the ground, kowtowed vigorously and begged for mercy: "The princess spares her life, the princess spares her life!" ”
Su Ruoxi looked at Cui'er with a cold expression and asked, "Cui'er, there are only you and me here." You answer me honestly, who boiled the ginseng soup you sent before? Who took over on the way? ”
Someone wanted to murder her, and she had to investigate it seriously.
Otherwise, she doesn't know how she died in this palace one day.
Although Cui'er didn't know what was going on, she also understood that there must have been a problem with the ginseng soup before, and she had a big deal this time.
"Back to the princess, what is the ginseng soup...... It was boiled by the slave and maid herself, and there was no ...... on the way Without going through someone else's hands. ”
Although she had a bad premonition, Cui'er still stubbornly said the truth.
"Oh? Is it? Do you know that this ginseng soup has been poisoned? ”
Su Ruoxi asked coldly, and Cui'er was suddenly so frightened that her whole body trembled.
"The slave doesn't know, please ask the princess to find out!"
"You don't know? You boiled this soup, if it wasn't poisoned by you, how would you explain it? ”
"The princess forgives her sins, it's really not the slave maid who did it, even if the slave maid is given a hundred guts, the slave and maid don't dare to do anything unfavorable to the princess!"
Cui'er cried and begged for mercy, Su Ruoxi naturally knew that this poison was not from Cui'er.
It's just that she can't be spared Cui'er's carelessness.
On the way, she didn't pass by others, and Cui'er didn't even know how the poison was put in.
Even if she doesn't punish her this time, a carelessness like Cui'er will cause trouble sooner or later.
"There are rules in the palace, since you don't know anything, then wait for the princess to find out."
"Someone! Drag Cui'er down, hit the twenty boards again, and put her in the prison for interrogation later! ”
Su Ruoxi gave an order, and two guards rushed over.
No matter how much Cui'er cried, it was useless, and in the end she was dragged down by the two guards.
Su Ruoxi took the bowl back to the dormitory, then put the bowl on the table, and waited for Mu Zihan to come back.
Mu Zihan listened to Wan'er's report and was so frightened that he immediately rushed over.
"It's a pity, are you alright? Who dares to be so bold and poison people in the palace! ”
As soon as Mu Zihan walked to the door, he asked angrily.
Su Ruoxi sat on the chair, handed the bowl on the table to Mu Zihan, and said, "I have already checked, this soup is poisoned by someone named Banyuexiao. ”
"You just need to find out the origin of this poison, and it should be to find a clue related to the murderer."
Mu Zihan took the bowl in Su Ruoxi's hand and sighed heavily.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I almost hurt you. This king must find out this matter and give you justice! ”
"Hmmm! I also want to know who is trying to harm me! ”
"Zihan, I'll leave this matter to you. I have something to do, I need to go out, you can go back and continue to do your business. ”
Su Ruoxi thought about it, she had been waiting for almost a day, and there was no news from Ya'er and Mu Chengfeng.
Naturally, she couldn't sit still, so she was going to go to Ya'er in person to see how Ya'er was planning.
Mu Zihan nodded and said, "This king will order someone to send you all the food after testing it for poison." ”
"Don't worry, I've studied medicine, and it's not so easy to poison me!"
Seeing that Mu Zihan still looked very nervous, Su Ruoxi smiled at him easily and said comfortingly.
"It's a pity, the king of Mu Liao Kingdom will leave tomorrow, and this king is very busy today, so I don't have much time to accompany you......"
"Alright! I know, you go and get busy, I'm not a kid anymore, I can take care of myself! ”
Of course, she knew that Mu Zihan was very busy, otherwise she wouldn't have urged him to leave in such a hurry.
Mu Zihan nodded, "You take good care of yourself, if you need anything, just tell Xiangxiang to do it." This king will come back in the evening to accompany you to dinner! ”
After Mu Zihan finished speaking, he kissed Su Ruoxi lightly on the forehead, and then left in a hurry.
Su Ruoxi let out a sigh, changed into a simple dress, and prepared to go to Ya'er.
