Chapter 5: She's Dead
In the distance, Rong Yunxi's dark and bright apricot eyes were filled with layers of mist, gently wiped away her tears, and sat on her knees in shock, looking like a delicate deep lady.
The guards replaced, searched, and carefully interrogated everyone who touched the food of the banquet, from the cook who cooked it to the palace maid who served the food, and did not let go of any of them.
The gloomy and tense atmosphere has not dissipated until now, some people are secretly panicking, and some people are hurriedly looking for hidden corners to induce vomiting.
"Sister Yunxi, are you okay?" Overhead, a gentle voice rang out, a shadow covering her petite body.
Rong Yunxi pretended to raise her head in fear, got up in a hurry, and saluted gently, and the green silk between the green silk made a crisp sound because of the collision.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, Yunxi is fine, thank you for your concern." Rong Yunxi softened her voice, deliberately revealing her little daughter's attitude, and then said: "I hope Your Highness must bring the murderer to justice!" After speaking, it was difficult to hide the excitement in his voice.
Qi Mingshu saw that her attitude was so close, a trace of pride crossed her eyes and was quickly replaced by contempt, her peach-like eyes flashed, her sword eyebrows frowned slightly, and she said solemnly: "Sister Yunxi, don't worry, this palace will definitely find the murderer and give you justice!" ”
"To His Royal Highness the Prince! The subordinates have identified the person who poisoned him, and now he has been arrested! One of the guards hurried up and knelt down.
Qi Mingshu's eyes dimmed, a trace of anxiety appeared on his face, his expression was majestic, and he said in a deep voice: "Hurry up and escort people up!" Then, he returned to the main seat without hesitation.
Soon, the guards brought up a little palace maid who had been punished, and threw her to the ground with a bang, only to see her hurriedly kowtow on the ground, "Please, His Royal Highness the Prince, spare the slave and maid, the slave and maid really don't dare next time!" ”
Rong Yunxi's eyes darkened, and she couldn't help sneering in her heart, it seems that Rong Yuejin's ability is not small, and she can find a scapegoat in the palace.
Her tears rolled from her cheeks like beads with broken threads, leaving a shallow mark of water, and she slowly stood up, looking sad, and said: "When I first arrived in the palace, I have no grudge against you, why do you want to harm me?" Or is it ...... Who commanded you to put me to death? ”
As soon as the words fell, the palace maid's face turned pale, but she just shook her head again and again, and stammered: "And...... No one instructed it. After saying that, he knocked his head down, and soon, the blood was faintly oozing out.
Kou Yuanqi slapped the table fiercely, the force was so great that almost even the cup on it vibrate, and shouted: "Since there is no one to instruct him, why harm Yunxi?" You're clearly lying! ”
The little palace maid had never seen such a big battle, her little face turned white, she bit her dry lip, glanced at Rong Yuejin in horror, and bit the poison in her mouth fiercely.
Suddenly, blood spurted out of his mouth, and soon after, he fell to the ground and died.
She cut herself!
Many Miss Houmen and even the children of the official family couldn't help but sigh.
Kou Kun immediately ran to her side, probed her snort, and finally sighed helplessly, "She's dead." ”
Due to such an incident, the welcome banquet ended hastily and they returned to their mansions.
After arriving at the mansion, Rong Yunxi gently massaged his face with a jade wheel, but he kept reviewing what happened today in his mind, Rong Yuejin would definitely have flaws!
Suddenly, her eyelashes fluttered, and when she opened her eyes, she beckoned and whispered to Yudie.
"Cuiwei, I want you to go into the palace to help me do something." Rong Yunxi's eyes hurriedly swept out of the window, closed his eyes lazily, and said indifferently, as if they were two people just now.
"Miss, what's the matter?" Cuiwei walked to her side with a blank expression and answered softly.
"Help me find out the details of the palace maid who cut himself today." Rong Yunxi said, her voice was light and ethereal, and a trace of luster flashed between her beautiful eyes.
Cui bowed slightly, and replied neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Yes." With that, he departed.
When Cuiwei's figure completely disappeared from her sight, she slowly opened her eyes, her eyes were clear, and her voice was delicate and lazy.
"What? Could it be that the gentleman on the beam is also a timid person? If you have the courage to listen, will you not have the courage to appear? ”
As soon as the words fell, a light laugh came, mellow and low, as if it was a clear spring in the mountains, suddenly, a strong wind blew, the doors and windows clattered open, Rong Yunxi squinted his eyes uncomfortably, and when he opened his eyes again, a demonic man was standing in front of him.
The man hung down to his waist like the green silk of a waterfall, gently pulled it up with a white jade hairpin, the narrow Danfeng eyes with a hint of playful smile, and a bewitching tear mole was even more charming, wearing a moon-white robe, like a fairy.
"Who are you?!" Rong Yunxi's heart tightened, and she subconsciously clenched her fists.
She had lived for so many years in her previous life, how could she never have any impression of this person?
The man sat down casually, with a smile on his eyebrows, and his eyes were crooked and beautiful, like peach blossoms dyed in spring.
"Me? What the girl thinks I am, I am naturally what I am. ”
"Heh, it's just a gentleman on the beam." Rong Yunxi said deliberately, but in fact, she had no bottom in her heart at all.
The man in front of her was richly dressed, the materials were all of the highest quality, and his status was definitely not lower than that of the Hou Mansion or the National Doctor Mansion, but she had no impression of this person!
The man suddenly chuckled, his slender and white fingers picked up a cup of tea, plucked the leaves on it, and took a sip of tea gently, "Sometimes it may not be useful to retreat as advance, but retreating may be an abyss?" ”
Rong Yunxi didn't speak, what she said was easily broken by the man, and if she continued to talk about it, she would be restrained by the other party, so it was better to wait and see.
I saw that the man's fingers gently rubbed the white jade and silver light in his hand, and his eyes were lazy like the snow-white Persian cat, and he didn't seem to care about Rong Yunxi's attempt to fight back.
"You're smart and ...... The goal is clear. But it's a pity...... It's not perfect. ”
As soon as the words fell, these words just hit her worries at the moment!
Her face changed, and her words were as cold as ice in an instant: "I don't understand what the son is talking about, if you don't leave, I will have to report to the official." ”
The man chuckled, pressed one hand on the table and wanted to stand up, Rong Yunxi took two steps back vigilantly, but unexpectedly, the man's pupils suddenly dilated, and his body froze and stood motionless.
And the hand pressed on the table, the joints were white, and the muscles were violent.
Rong Yunxi was shocked, this is ...... Cold Poison!
