The next day, after bidding farewell to the lord of Wani and bowing to the ancestral hall of the royal family, Mu Jiuxiao set off with the cloud and the mighty provincial team.

According to the specifications of the princess's provincial relatives, the provincial family's team has 1,000 pro-soldiers and 300 subordinates, including 100 maids and mothers-in-law, 100 eunuchs, 100 coachmen, and 100 carts of gifts, including of course the twenty Persian maidens.

Mu Jiuxiao wore a silver robe and rode in the middle of the team, followed by the gorgeous carriage of Yunqi City, this time the journey of the provincial relatives had to pass through eighteen large and small cities in the two countries, nine of which were in Wani, and the other nine were in Daegu, and it took twenty-one days to reach Jintan, the capital of Daegu.

Everywhere the procession went, the people on the road would welcome them, cheering and excited to see the demeanor of the Hades.

Mu Jiuxiao, who had long been accustomed to such scenes, just sat on the horse safely, with a solemn face, and did not respond.

At night, Mu Jiuxiao and Yun Chengcheng would rest in the pre-arranged official inn, and the officials in Wani were attentive because they could see the Hades King, and they served thoughtfully and meticulously and considerately.

There was nothing wrong all the way, and the princess of Cloud Allure seemed to have a lot more tempered, she didn't scold the maid, and she didn't talk much, but the princess's car was still high, making it difficult for people to get close.

Along the way, Mu Jiuxiao has been sleeping separately from him, he has already said about this, the princess is pregnant, he is afraid that he will not be able to control himself and cause harm to the princess and the child, such an excuse is reasonable.

Halfway through the trip, the team finally left Vani and stepped into Daegu on the first night, and the peace of the team of more than 1,000 people was broken in the post house where they had just checked in.

"Bang", the sound of porcelain breaking came from the room of the cloud-captivating city, which startled the maids standing inside and outside the room one by one, not daring to have a trace of fatigue, and at the same time they all pricked up their ears to hear what was happening.

This is a small city on the border of Daegu, the post house has been renovated because of the arrival of the princess's provincial relatives in advance, although it is not big and luxurious, but it is very tidy, and the city guard follows the above explanation, and must show the demeanor of Daegu as a great country, no matter how big or small, it must be done properly.

At this time, Mu Jiuxiao and Mu Yu were inspecting the provincial team stationed near the post house, including the food and lodging of the pro-soldiers, the placement of gifts, and the defense at night, all of which must be in place one by one, and there could be no mistakes, so he didn't know anything about what happened in the princess's room.

"Okay, you stinky girl, do you want to kill the princess and the prince's child?"

In the princess's room, Yun Chengcheng got up from the chair suddenly, walked step by step to the kneeling maid, stepped over the porcelain fragments on the ground, kicked the maid in the chest, and kicked her to the ground.

The maid was kicked on her back and fell to the ground, and her originally drooping cheeks were now revealed, and it was the bright moon that had stained the moonlight satin.

Knowing that she had made a mistake, although Mingyue was kicked and her chest hurt, she quickly got up, continued to kneel in place, and cried and forgive:

"Slaves and maids don't dare, slaves and maids don't dare...... The princess spares her life, the princess spares her life......"

The gray cotton jacket she was wearing, her chest was soaked by the ginseng soup that had been knocked over by Yun Qicheng, and a piece of porcelain shard in front of her pierced into her palm when she kowtowed, and the sharp pain made him shiver, and at this moment the blood was constantly oozing out, dyeing the fine white wool Persian carpet on the ground red.

As soon as Yun Chengcheng entered the door, he said that this carpet was beautiful, as clean as the snow in Wani, and now he saw that his beloved things were dirty, and his heart was even more angry.

Another kick fell, and her shrill voice resounded throughout the room:

"Dare to quibble? Don't dare? I think you're mindful! When you were in the Hades Palace, you soiled my moonlight satin, I remembered that you had just died of your relatives, and I accidentally made a big mistake in a trance, and forgave you, not only did I not torture you, but I also gave you a change of errand to prevent you from making mistakes again, but you actually didn't miss the kindness of this princess, and secretly changed the tonic medicine to kill me? I was moved to tears by you that day, but I didn't know that you were a vicious woman with a femme fatale! ”

Yun Chengcheng's words made the maids present and outside the door look at each other, who doesn't know that Mingyue made a mistake that day, at that time the other maids didn't know how much sweat they pinched for her, on weekdays, the autumn rain and winter rain are always blue and purple, the old injury is not good, and the new injury is added, this has become an open secret, the princess is short-tempered, unapproachable, scolding, and beating if you want, everyone used to be proud of being the princess's maid, and then how far and how far to hide, for fear of being targeted by the princess.

When Mingyue made such a big mistake, everyone thought that she was going to die, but the princess forgave Mingyue with her so-called kindness, and what she said was an errand change, that is, to demote Mingyue directly from a second-class maid to a rough maid, and also sent her to the kitchen to light the fire, to put it more clearly, she is a fire-burning girl who eats with firewood, charcoal ash, and smoke all day long.

The maids in the Hades Mansion are divided into five classes, the first class is close-quarter, the second class is to serve daily life, the third class is to weave and wash, the fourth class is to clean, and the rest are some rough maids who do chores, anyone can call them.

Although she was demoted to a rough maid, everyone also expressed her implication that she would not die in such an encounter as Mingyue, which was already a rare mercy for the princess.

Now, it seems that Mingyue still can't escape the clutches of the princess, maybe Mingyue did it on purpose, but in the eyes of most people, they still think that the princess can't let go of her heart and deliberately finds fault with her.

Mingyue cried so much that she was kicked to the ground again, but she still stubbornly got up, knelt in place, and cried:

"The princess is angry, the princess is angry! The slave really didn't mean it, it wasn't meant to be......"

"Didn't mean to?"

The green tendons in the forehead of the cloud fell out of the city,

"Okay, then you can tell me, how dare you add something to my tonic as a girl who burns the fire? Who gave you the right? ”

Mingyue climbed to the feet of Cloud Allure, desperately tugging at the corner of her skirt, explaining:

"Princess, you listen to the slave maid explain, today the slave maid is responsible for your tonic to see the fire, the fire is heavy and I am afraid that the water will dry up when the stew is not good, and I am afraid that the stew will be too much, and the effect of the medicine will be ruined, and the slave and maid are too tired to rush for days, no, accidentally take a nap, the slave and maid swore that there will only be a small meeting, just a small meeting, but when the slave and maid opened their eyes, they saw that the medicine pot had been overturned for some reason, and the soup and medicinal materials in it were spilled out, and the slave and maid were afraid, afraid that the princess would not be able to eat the tonic when the time came, so she grabbed a few more according to the appearance of the medicinal materials and put them into the medicine pot, and added water, I thought that I could give it to the princess on time, but the slave and maid really didn't know that they would catch the wrong medicine, and the slave and maid saw that the two medicinal materials were exactly the same......"

Mingyue cried into tears, frightened and wronged, making her look like a pitiful worm, prostrate at the feet of her master, waiting for the verdict of life and death, and everyone present was sad for her.

Yun Chengcheng kicked away the bright moon, glared at his eyes and asked:

"How do I know if you caught the wrong medicine because you didn't know it, or if you deliberately grabbed the wrong medicine? Ginseng is a solid and detached from the body, a great tonic of vitality, and the salvia has the effect of invigorating blood and removing stasis, pregnant women eating it is bound to be detrimental to the fetus, and may even cause miscarriage, although the appearance of the two is similar to that is difficult to distinguish, but you used to be a second-class maid, how can you not know such common sense? You just hold a grudge, you just want me to have a miscarriage, you just want to kill the eldest son of the prince, don't you, don't you, don't you? ”

She shouted three sentences of "yes or no" in a row, and the sound hit people's hearts, shaking the maids inside and outside the room into panic.

And Mingyue, who was kneeling on the ground, was so frightened that she only shook her head, not knowing how to react.

"Someone!"

At the sound of an order, the guards guarding the door ran over and stood outside the door and said:

"What does the princess command?"

Yun Chengcheng ordered someone to open the door, looked at the bright moon who was crying silently on the ground, and said to the guard standing outside the door:

"Drag me out, beat me to death with a stick, and throw it into the mountains to feed the dogs!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was secretly frightened, although it was a little unexpected, but it was reasonable, it was more in line with Yun Chengcheng's vicious style of doing things, and the people who offended her, from Lin Ling'er to Shangguan Qingqing, and then to the maids below, none of them had a good end, no matter whether Mingyue was unintentional or deliberate, she was afraid that she would not be able to escape this catastrophe.

"Princess?"

Mingyue's eyes widened, she couldn't believe it was true, she crawled over, wanting to grab the corner of Yun Chengcheng's skirt and plead, but Yun Chengcheng quickly took a few steps back, for fear that her bloody dirty hand would defile her clothes again.

Just shouted loudly:

"What are you still doing in a daze, drag me out, beat, beat hard!"

"Princess, the slave didn't mean it, the slave really didn't mean it...... Spare the slave and the slave, spare the slave and the slave......"

Mingyue's voice grew farther and farther away until it disappeared at the end of the hallway.

She was dragged by two guards, her bloody palms waving in the air and begging for help, and finally the guards covered her mouth and dragged her into the firewood room.

The two guards threw her onto the pyre, the dry branches cutting through her clothes, and the collar that had cracked open as she struggled revealed her fair skin.

A guard stared at her snow-white neck for a long time, swallowed several times, rubbed his hands together, and said eagerly:

"Brother, don't say it, this is different from the girl next to the princess, this thin skin and tender flesh is like a princess......"

With a "snap", before he finished speaking, the slap of another guard fell on his face, making him dizzy.

When he reacted, he shouted:

"Damn, you dare to hit me?"

"If I tell the princess what you just said, guess what will happen to you?"

"I ......"

The squinting guard had to stop his mouth, not daring to say anything more, and after a moment he smiled and flattered,

"Hey...... Brother, my brother was confused just now, don't you say it? ”

The other guard thought for a moment, looked embarrassed, and said:

"Forget it, brothers, in order to prevent you from making mistakes, leave it to me here, you go outside and guard."

"Hey, hey, good, good......"

The guard said, turning and going out.
