Chapter 120: Poisoning
In the next few days, Su Yue'er would always make all kinds of pastries and send them to Qin Boyong, and Qin Boyong didn't avoid her like before, and occasionally said a few words to her.
And Su Yue'er seems to have really changed a lot, her arrogance has all been reined in, and she doesn't look like a high-flying and domineering person when she sees people occasionally, and she no longer deliberately competes for favor, and she doesn't force herself to stay every time she sees Qin Boyong, and she takes the initiative to say goodbye after saying a few words.
After a period of time, the wind direction in the palace has changed strangely.
Some people are speculating that the time for Su Yue'er to be favored again should be approaching, but some are cursing her every day, hoping that she will never be favored.
This person is naturally Xiaolan, although Gu Muzhi's body is much better now, her hatred for Su Yue'er has not diminished.
In the study room of the palace, Qin Boyong was concentrating on a piece of paper, with a cup of tea that had been half cooled in his hand, and a plate of snow-white plum blossom-shaped pastries was placed in the corner of the desk, the pastries exuded a sweet aroma, and it was obvious that the people who made pastries had good skills.
After a while, Lu Yuan walked in from outside the door.
Gu Muzhi's physical condition gradually stabilized, and he didn't need to stare at it all day, so he usually followed Qin Boyong. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the plate of snow-white pastry and immediately laughed jokingly.
"Mrs. Su sent it?"
Qin Boyong nodded slightly, but didn't look at him, just looked at the letter paper in his hand.
Lu Yuan stepped forward, picked up a piece of pastry and sniffed it under his nose, and asked casually, "I heard that she sends you pastries every day, and it looks pretty good, why don't you eat it?" ”
"I'm not interested in any of that." Qin Boyong said coldly.
Lu Yuan smiled, "It is said that Su Yue'er's personality has changed a lot recently, but it has really changed, in the past, no matter how much she flattered you, she would not really make pastries for you herself, but now she sends them every day, not afraid that her skin will be yellowed by smoke?" ”
As he spoke, Lu Yuan suddenly had a trace of doubt in his heart, he glanced at the pastry, put the pastry under his nose again and sniffed it.
Qin Boyong noticed Lu Yuan's reaction, and the thought that suddenly rose in his heart made him feel a little ridiculous, "Do you suspect that she was poisoned?" ”
Lu Yuan shook his head, "Not sure yet, but it's possible, I need to check it." ”
After saying that, he took a silver needle from the bun of the silver crown, pierced it with the silver needle, and when he took it out again, there was no change in the silver needle. Qin Boyong said lightly: "Maybe you are suspicious." ”
Lu Yuan didn't answer, took out a black powder from the small cloth pocket he carried and put it on a piece of paper, then kneaded the pastry into powder, and finally stirred the two together with a silver needle, and after a while, the white pastry began to change color, and finally some small bubbles bubbled up like boiling water.
"It's really toxic."
Lu Yuan wiped the silver needle clean, inserted it back into his hair, and said: "This is a kind of ****, generally the silver needle can't be detected, and eating less will not have much impact on the body, but if you continue to eat for more than a month, you will begin to have dizziness and fatigue, poor appetite, if you continue to eat for three months, there is a high probability that you will be unconscious, delirious, and there will be only a dead end for more than half a year." ”
After Lu Yuan finished speaking, Qin Boyong's face had turned black into carbon at the bottom of the pot.
"Bring the pastries and follow me to Lingxi Pavilion."
At this time, Su Yue'er was still in Lingxi Pavilion, smiling little by little, she had been staying in the small kitchen during this time, making pastries every day, and even her cooking skills were much better.
The maid on the side wanted to help, but she refused.
"Since you want to please the prince, it is naturally better for me to come in person."
She smiled faintly, handed a plate of pastries that had been made to the maid, and said with a smile: "This is extra, I can't eat it, you can take it and share it." ”
The maid took the plate, a little flattered for a while, and even more happy in her heart.
Where did Su Yue'er treat them so well before, it seems that this time she has really changed a lot, and she has been appreciating the pastries she made herself for several days. If this continues, Su Yue'er will definitely return to favor again.
Su Yue'er smiled and watched the maid leave, and when she saw her leave the small kitchen, the smile on her face gradually disappeared, and a touch of crazy resentment appeared in her eyes.
Not long after the maid went out, she suddenly stumbled back again, and there was no joy on her face, but she was all panicked and afraid, "Madam, the prince came with the palace guards, saying that you want to poison him and arrest you!" ”
"Panic what!"
Su Yue'er glanced at the maid coldly, threw the dough in her hand on the board, and then slowly left the small kitchen as calmly as usual.
The maid looked blankly at the back of her master leaving, and a strange sense of strangeness rose in her heart.
Is this really her master?
In the hall, all the subordinates of Lingxi Pavilion were tied up and thrown aside, and for a while, the wailing and begging for mercy continued, Qin Boyong was annoyed, so he ordered people to throw all these subordinates outside the courtyard.
Su Yue'er slowly walked into the lobby from the backyard, and seeing that the palace guards were waiting for her, Qin Boyong's face turned pale, and she suddenly sneered, "Yo, what's wrong with the prince?" I didn't do anything to that little slut right now. ”
As she spoke, she sat down on the chair very leisurely, picked up a sugar peanut and put it in her mouth and chewed it slowly.
After chewing twice, she caught a glimpse of the plate in Lu Yuan's hand, and immediately pretended to be curious and laughed, staring at Qin Boyong and asking, "Lord Wang, I don't know if you are satisfied with the pastries I recently sent you, these pastries are difficult to make, and it took me a lot of effort." ”
As she spoke, she raised her hands, pointed to a few red blisters on her hands, and said aggrievedly: "Look, I've been scalded by steam several times, but it hurts, don't you comfort me?" ”
In the end, she didn't laugh anymore, but snorted coldly, "In the end, the prince is just eccentric." ”
Lu Yuan finally couldn't stand it, put the stack of pastries on the table, and asked coldly: "Why do you want to poison the prince!" ”
No one expected that Su Yue'er didn't deny it at all, but instead laughed at Qin Boyong, but it was not the kind of docile smile in the past, but the kind of infiltrating sneer.
"What did I just want to do?"
Her palms clenched violently, a crazy anger appeared in her eyes, and she gritted her teeth and hated: "I am the daughter of the prefect, and I have never suffered any grievances since I was a child, why do you Qin Boyong treat me like this!" The slut surnamed Zhang is no match for me, she is just a pariah in terms of family, she is just a gaudy vixen in terms of appearance, and that Gu Muzhi is also a slut who is used to pretending to be pitiful, and it is not a pity to die at all! ”
Speaking of this, she suddenly screamed, her face was hideous, and she lifted the plate and smashed it towards Qin Boyong.
"I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you!"
