Chapter Seventy-Five: Poisoning

"What kind of apology is this!" Aoyagi closed the lid of the box and put it a little farther away from Sheng Zi'an, for fear of scaring Sheng Zi'an.

"It is estimated that Princess Anyang wants to apologize in this way, tell me, this matter is not over yet."

Sheng Zi'an heard about Princess Anyang going to the Empress Dowager's palace to ask for peace, and thought that after the Empress Dowager personally taught, the Princess Anyang would be a little more restrained, but instead of restraining, this princess also played the game of intimidation.

Sheng Zi'an felt a faint nausea inside, as if he had been targeted by a poisonous snake.

"Aoyagi, you go and send this box to His Royal Highness the Prince, don't make a noise, I'm not sure now, whether Princess Anyang wants to start from me or His Royal Highness the Prince, tell His Royal Highness the Prince, be careful, this time, Princess Anyang is not good...."

Aoyagi also agreed very seriously, and Ah Qi personally sent the box to the hands of His Royal Highness the Prince.

In recent days, His Royal Highness the Prince is very busy, mainly to accompany the task of the Xirong Mission, after the Xirong Mission has achieved the goal of marrying in the Central Plains, the next days are to wait for the weather to be slightly cooler, and after the Mid-Autumn Festival, he will return to Xirong with the Lord of Guide.

Now that the weather is on the road, neither people nor livestock can bear it on the road.

So since the last time he came back from the hunting ground, Xirong's mission has been in the capital, or around the capital, and several older princes, as well as His Royal Highness the prince, have to accompany them.

His Royal Highness the Prince of the World was busy with the dragon and saw the end of the end, the last time Sheng Zi'an put his blood into a small porcelain bottle, and asked Ah Qi to send it to His Royal Highness the Prince to take, do the math, if there was no princess mansion, he and His Royal Highness the Prince had not seen each other for seventeen days.

Sheng Zi'an believes that on His Royal Highness the Prince's side, he will handle it himself, and on her own side, she thought, let you wind in the southeast and northwest, as long as you don't move, what can you do to me?

So Sheng Zi'an stayed in the house honestly, and she simply lived a life of retirement, no matter whose banquet it was, she shirked it on the grounds that she was not in good health today.

The ladies in the capital looked at Sheng Zi'an as the future princess, and no one dared to say anything to their faces, and Sheng Zi'an didn't care about what they said behind their backs.

Princess Anyang was provocative here, and on Wen Dona's side, she really apologized.

Princess Anyang didn't care about her face at this time, and sent boxes of jewelry from the princess's mansion to the post station, and asked the lord of Guide to apologize to the little princess in person, with a posture of not giving up until the goal was reached.

When Wen Dona came to Sheng Zi'an Mansion, she was still very distressed:

"They don't mean it at first glance, and I don't want to forgive them at all! But my eldest brother they asked me to forgive these people, Zi'an, what do you think I should do? ”

Sheng Zi'an felt that the little princess was upright and cute: "Why do you have to forgive them from the bottom of your heart?" ”

The little princess blinked: "My eldest brother said that if I don't forgive them, maybe it will destroy the relationship between Xirong and the Central Plains!" ”

Sheng Zi'an shook his head: "Then you can forgive them on face!" They don't necessarily want to apologize to you in their hearts, but they apologize to you on face, and you can forgive them on face! ”

"There is a saying in our original that you must not have the heart of harming others, and you must not have the heart of guarding against others, which means that you must be vigilant against these people to harm you again, and you must protect yourself, understand?"

Wen Dona nodded: "I understand, it's just not comfortable, and I don't want to forgive them on face!" ”

"You're going home soon, what are you doing here?"

"That's right, when we get to Xirong, I'll see how Guide still shows his teeth and claws!" Wen Dona said hatefully, Sheng Zi'an didn't explain to her, according to Princess Anyang's noisy method, this Guide County Lord can't say, and he really doesn't have to go to Xirong to make peace.

Let's see what kind of means she uses below!

Wen Dona has been annoyed by Princess Anyang and the Lord of Guide these days, no matter where she goes, she can meet this pair of sons and daughters, Sheng Zi'an listened to her story, and vaguely felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't understand what was wrong.

"Have you had anything strange around you lately?" Sheng Zi'an put down the medical book in his hand and asked.

The little princess is just naïve, but she is not really stupid, she heard Sheng Zi'an ask herself, and she was also vigilant, observing the movements of the people around her.

The little princess was waiting around, a few little maids knew the Central Plains dialect, but a few maids only knew Xijon dialect, and the little princess secretly paid attention to these little maids for a few days, but she didn't find any abnormalities.

Sheng Zi'an is hiding at home now, and he can't give the little princess any good ideas, so she can only let the little princess continue to be careful, and she will return to Xirong soon, and those who are about to move should not be able to sit still.

Sheng Zi'an is not afraid to fight people head-on, but he feels a little sorry for His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness is busy all day now, and he will be suspicious of the emperor, if something happens to him, His Royal Highness will be targeted by the emperor again, and the gains outweigh the losses.

She thought to herself, if you can admit it, you can admit it, there is nothing to be ashamed of anyway.

I don't know if it's the reason why I live in a simple place, during this time, Princess Anyang and the county lord of Guide are surprisingly calm, in Ah Qi's words, they have been keen to participate in various banquets recently, as if they want to establish their own connections in Beijing.

Sheng Zi'an vaguely felt that something was wrong, Princess Anyang must return to her fiefdom, what did she want to do to establish her own connections in the capital?

In this way, the days have been stable until the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Every year during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the emperor and the queen mother will hold a banquet in the palace, and this year is no exception, but in recent days, Princess Anyang has made friends with many people in the capital, and she wants to hold a banquet in her princess's mansion before the Mid-Autumn Festival palace banquet.

Sheng Zi'an also got the post, and the maid next to the lord of Guide personally sent it.

Aoyagi was a little worried: "Madam, should we not go?" Anyway, Xirong's mission is about to leave after the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the lord of Guide seems to be going to go with him, so Princess Anyang has no reason to stay in the capital. ”

"When the time comes, let His Royal Highness the Prince persuade and persuade the Queen Mother, and let Princess Anyang return to her fiefdom, don't you have to be so vigilant?"

Sheng Zi'an shook his head: "This banquet is not the usual banquet of several families, this Princess Anyang has almost feasted all the ladies and ladies in the capital, and also occupies the name of the Mid-Autumn Festival, if I don't go, I really can't say it." ”

"Princess Anyang did it on purpose!"

"Yes, she did it on purpose, after all, my identity is not as good as hers, and it is too easy for her to want to press me!"

"Ma'am, what then?" Aoyagi experienced the last time, after his wife was forcibly taken away in front of him, but he couldn't do anything, he was too concerned about protecting Sheng Zi'an.

Sheng Zi'an looked at her anxious appearance, smiled, and comforted her.

"The soldiers are coming, the water is coming to cover up, it's not the first time I've been troubled, I also want to see, this time, what powerful tricks can Princess Anyang use?"

But what Sheng Zi'an didn't expect was that this time, Princess Anyang's tricks did not fall on her.

On the day of the banquet, Sheng Zi'an wore an autumn-colored skirt, which was not eye-catching at all among the brightly dressed girls, but she looked really good.

But Sheng Zi'an's skin is white and snowy, and this color makes her a little more solemn and beautiful.

The little princess wore Xirong's clothes today, and the fiery red dress used a lot of animal fur and tassels, which looked very exotic.

Wen Dona's seat was next to Sheng Zi'an.

The little princess winked at Sheng Zi'an: "Zi'an, I heard that the osmanthus wine in the Mid-Autumn Festival in the Central Plains is very delicious, wait a minute, I want to taste it well." ”

Sheng Zi'an saw her excited, and asked casually: "Okay, I know this, who told you that our osmanthus wine in the Mid-Autumn Festival is delicious?" ”

The little princess pointed to the maid beside her, who was also dressed in Xijon costume and covered with a veil:

"Ida told me! She also said that the osmanthus wine in the princess's mansion, but what about the offerings, I estimate that I will be able to drink it once in my life, but I have to taste it. ”

"Oh, you maid, you know so much!" Sheng Zi'an smiled gently, and looked at the maid behind the little princess.

The maid was slender and tall, and even if she used a veil, she could see that her eyebrows and eyes were deep, and she was a beautiful embryo.

The maid couldn't understand the Central Plains dialect, and when she saw Sheng Zi'an looking at herself, she just nodded slightly, and took a step back.

After the banquet began, Princess Anyang, who was dressed luxuriously, as the host, arranged osmanthus wine, as well as steamed crabs, with the faint fragrance of chrysanthemums in this courtyard, which was even more elegant.

Sheng Zi'an and the little princess sat very close, I don't know if Princess Anyang deliberately snubbed them, the seats of the two were very inconspicuous, and the ladies and ladies around them didn't see that these were two noble people.

Accidents happen in an instant.

A scream came into everyone's ears, and the maid standing behind the little princess pounced in horror, while the little princess was pale and fell into Sheng Zi'an's arms, and the wine glass on the table was empty.

The maid snatched the little princess back from Sheng Zi'an's arms, and then spit out a string of Xirong words from her mouth, eager and frightened, her fingers couldn't stop pointing to Sheng Zi'an's position.

Sheng Zi'an's heart sank suddenly, and her eyes fell on the maid sternly, but the maid was still shouting frantically, and the other little princesses also surrounded her, and after listening to the maid's words, they all glared at Sheng Zi'an.

A guy said in a blunt tone:

"The princess's maid said that you put something in the princess's cup, and before she could stop it, the princess drank it, and you poisoned the princess! You killed our princess of Sijon! ”

The little princess seemed to be no longer breathing, her face and lips were bruised, and she was lying there.

Everyone was shocked by this sudden thing, and they heard Princess Anyang's voice for a while.

"Someone! Take Sheng Zi'an! Murder Princess Xijon! Don't let her run! ”

A team of guards outside ran in and pulled Sheng Zi'an up from his seat.....
