Then Mo Ziyu was taken to the side room to change her wet clothes first, and Lu Qiao looked at her wound and said dissatisfiedly: "The people in the princess's courtyard must have been selected and strictly trained, even if they are scalded, they will definitely not make such a mistake, I don't think this matter is so simple." ”

"Don't you think this matter was instigated by the princess?" Mo Ziyu asked softly.

"Who else could she be?" said Lu Qiao with a snort, "It must be because I am jealous that you have won the favor of the prince." ”

"If this matter is the second lady, I can still think about it in that direction, after all, the second lady has a tyrannical temperament, and there is a festival between her and me, but the princess has always been low-key and amiable, not jealous, what is the benefit of doing this?" Mo Ziyu smiled slightly, "The anger is out, but making an enemy is more than worth the loss for her." ”

At this time, there was a knock on the door of the maid outside, and then I saw a person entering with a temporary new dress: "This is the princess's clothes, the seventh lady is wearing them for the time being, and the doctor is on the way, and he will arrive soon." ”

"Got it, thank you Sister Princess. Mo Ziyu nodded and said indifferently, "Lu Qiao, take the clothes away." ”

Lu Qiao walked over and took the plate, and at this time, the maid suddenly pulled out a dagger from under the tray and stabbed it in the direction of Mo Ziyu's heart.

It happened too suddenly, Lu Qiao only felt that a black shadow flashed in front of her, and she didn't see what was going on, and at this time, the dagger with a cold light was already approaching Mo Ziyu's heart.

In the flash of lightning, the dagger-wielding maid suddenly paused, and then fell to the ground.

"Ahh

Mo Ziyu glanced at the hidden weapon in her hand, and let out a long breath, she was also too frightened, so she asked Lu Qiao to help her go to the side to sit down and rest.

This secret weapon was given to her by Qing Ling for self-defense, very small, easy to carry, there are three silver needles inside, each silver needle is quenched with poison, once it enters the body, it will die immediately.

Since he was almost strangled to death by Liu Ling in the Imperial Garden that day, Mo Ziyu felt that it was necessary to learn some self-preservation techniques, and Qing Ling gave this gadget, Mo Ziyu was naturally happy to bring it, but he didn't expect it to be used so quickly.

The screams inside the house attracted the attention of the people outside, first two maids entered, startled by the situation inside the house, and then ran to call someone, and after a while a few guards came in.

The guard first checked the breathing of the people on the ground, and then clasped his fists at Mo Ziyu and asked, "Is the Seventh Lady okay?"

"I'm fine, just a little frightened. Mo Ziyu stroked his chest, "I just don't know why this person wants to assassinate me." ”

When there was an assassination in this Tongzhi Courtyard, the princess's face turned pale when she heard this, and she hurriedly ordered that the whole matter be investigated, and ordered someone to invite the prince.

The burns on Mo Ziyu's hands were properly handled by the doctor, and the princess sat together, her face was very worried, and she hesitated for a while before asking: "The cheap maid who assassinated you is called Chunmei, but she is always a low-key girl on weekdays, I didn't expect to have such a big courage." It's just that she has no grievances with you, so why should she kill you?"

"Does the princess mean to blame our girl for this?" Lu Qiao said lightly sarcastically, "Our girl was almost killed, do you want our girl to reflect on what she did to be killed?" Besides, it is not necessary to be instructed, not necessarily because of our girl, the princess asked, how can our girl answer!"

"Green pretty, don't be rude!" Mo Ziyu scolded in a low voice, "This girl has called me a spoiled lawlessness, don't take it to heart princess." But I hadn't seen her before, and I really didn't know why she wanted to kill me. ”

"Hasn't the Seventh Lady really seen her?" Qiu Tong brought Mo Ziyu a bowl of frightened ginseng soup and said with a smile, "She entered the mansion with the Seventh Lady, and it is said that your relationship was not bad at the beginning, but then you were assigned to different courtyards." Chunmei's girl came to Tongzhi Courtyard, Seventh Lady, you went to other places, and you came to this Tongzhi Courtyard earlier to ask her to borrow some money from you. Later, the Seventh Lady lived in Qiushui Garden, and her identity was not ordinary, and once when she came to Tongzhi Courtyard, she was humiliated once! In my opinion, I am afraid that this Nizi is jealous that the Seventh Lady is now favored by the prince, so she wants to assassinate her to vent her anger!"

Qiu Tong can say it in such detail, I'm afraid that this matter is not nonsense, Mo Ziyu must not know the intersection between herself and this maid before, she helped the hairpin, lowered her eyes and smiled embarrassedly: "I wanted to forget those things that happened when I first entered the house, but I didn't expect to be mentioned by Sister Qiu Tong again." ”

"Qiu Tong, don't speculate, the specific reason will have to wait for the investigation to say. The princess said, "No matter what, Sister Jiang almost had an accident in Tongzhi Courtyard, and I will definitely give you an explanation!"

At this time, Qing Ling entered, first greeted the princess and Mo Ziyu, and then looked at Qiu Tong and said, "Sister Qiu Tong's guess, I'm afraid that there is a mistake." Based on Lu Qiao's description and the examination of Chunmei's body, I can deduce that Chunmei is not an ordinary person, but has received assassination training, which is not less than two years. As an assassin, he generally obeys orders to kill, and will never be affected by his own private feelings, although Chunmei is dead, in order to give an explanation to the princess, the princess should find out the main messenger behind this scene. ”

"What!" the princess was frightened again, "Chunmei is actually a killer, and there are even killers in Tongzhi Courtyard! This is too incredible, too creepy! Qingling, you take a look at everyone in the courtyard to see which ones are killers, and maybe you can find Chunmei's companions." ”

"The princess is at ease. Qing Ling said, "Since this Qi Wangfu has been mixed with assassins, it must be carefully inspected." ”

At this time, Lu Qiao muttered in a low voice: "This Chunmei has been in Tongzhi Courtyard for so long, hasn't the princess noticed her identity at all? Besides, who wants to kill our girl?"

Chunmei, this girl has always been very honest and low-key, so when she heard that she wanted to assassinate Sister Jiang, she was quite surprised, and she really didn't notice anything unusual about this girl before. The princess sighed, stood up, walked in front of Mo Ziyu, and blessed her, "I am both the master of Tongzhi Courtyard and the princess of Qi Wangfu, I have never noticed the abnormality of the people around me, and I have no way to do it, so Sister Jiang almost made a mistake today, please forgive Sister Jiang for my sister's momentary negligence!"

Mo Ziyu jumped up from the chair in shock, and hurriedly helped the princess up: "Sister is also in the dark about this matter, and she doesn't know that the other party still intends to hide it, how can she find out at will?
