Chapter 61: Failure
The prince patted his chest with confidence on his face,
"Queen Mother, don't worry, don't tell your father that it's that maid, just say that it's an official's daughter, and the father hasn't seen that maid what to be afraid of, and then we can collude with the second emperor's brother." The idea is very good, the queen feels that there is a way out of this matter, and even the bad mood just now has dissipated.
The happy queen said hello to Li Yachang three times, quite a promising Jackie Chan posture. wrote another letter and asked someone to leave the palace and send it to Li Yuanming.
In the house, Li Yuanming received the queen's letter, and he already had a plan in his heart, since Xiaoting is the maid of the household Shangshu family, then Wang Jianmin is still happy to pick up the leakage of Xiaoting's righteous daughter.
As for the person arranged by the queen, forget it, he is used to it alone, and he doesn't want to get on the prince's thief ship yet.
With this idea, there is no need for the queen to contribute, Li Yuanming came up with a plan by himself, and asked someone to send a letter to the concubine Liu Miaomiao, who had no son.
After receiving it, the queen opened it and took a look, patted the board angrily, scolded Li Yuanming for being a white-eyed wolf, and sent the letter directly to the prince's mansion.
Because the letter was intact, when the prince got the letter, he read Li Yuanming's letter to the queen. The content of the letter said that the queen was reprimanded for doing things for him, and he felt guilty about it, so he had entrusted the imperial concubine to do it, and he would send some things to compensate.
Even if he said to send something, Wang Ziyang still angrily tore the letter to shreds on the spot.
"It's too much, this old fifth is really not a thing, what is it to pretend to be here, obviously the prince has already thought of an idea, and it was handed over to the emperor and concubine in a blink of an eye, what, what does he mean by this? Do you take Hongu as a fool, lingering and throwing it away? Angry at the prince, he was angry, and he was going to find an opportunity to get this face back.
No matter what happened over there, the efficiency of the Shuhuang Imperial Concubine was still quite high, and this time Li Yuanming personally went to Shangshu Mansion to announce the decree.
Soon the holy decree was taken, but today I had missed the good time to announce the holy decree, and I was thinking about taking Xiaoting to Zhang's mansion to announce the decree tomorrow.
Wang Zhaolin stood aside, also saw the holy decree of marriage, and was a little jealous, taking advantage of no one's attention, he went back to the room alone indignantly.
As soon as he entered his room, Wang Zhaolin took out the poison powder that had been prepared a long time ago, as well as the pastries that had been prepared a long time ago, and mixed the poison powder into it by the way.
Eyes squinting slightly? He walked out of the room with a poisonous pastry. Say what? That maid must be killed today.
After adjusting his mood in the courtyard, Wang Zhaolin entered Xiaoting's room with a fake smile.
"Well, Brother Zhaolin, why are you here? Sit down. "Happy? She personally moved the bench a little closer to him.
Wang Zhaolin is still a little apprehensive? Picked up the pastries on the tray and handed them over?
"Give? Do you try this chicken cake? I ate it well, so I left some for you. After taking the pastry, Xiaoting also took a pastry and handed it to Wang Zhaolin?
smiled sweetly: "I can't swallow this pastry alone?" How can Brother Zhaolin say that he is also the one who saved Xiaoting's life? Why don't we eat together? "Awkward holding pastries?
Isn't he eating? It was slightly warm. looked at Xiaoting in some surprise: "Oh? It turns out that you also know that I saved you, but I thought you only knew about the prince? Xiao Ting blinked,
"How is it possible, I also know that you are a doctor, and it was you who saved me with your medical skills, so I not only have to thank the prince, but also thank you!" Wang Zhaolin raised his head and lowered his eyes, Xiaoting was still a flower-like woman, and she was especially grateful, whether he was right to do this.
What's more, Xiaoting's life was saved by herself, but she had to be killed by herself, which was somewhat desolate.
"Hey, that's it, that's it, the prince doesn't really like this maid, why should I be a killer." Thinking in his heart, Wang Zhaolin had already regretted today's move.
What's more, if you kill this maid, there will be other women entering the door. Decadent, Wang Zhaolin directly reached out and snatched the poisonous pastry in Xiaoting's hand, and put it in the tray along with the pastries in his hand.
Before leaving, he glanced at it fiercely and said, "You girl, tell you a happy event, the marriage decree has arrived, and you can go back to your Zhang Mansion tomorrow and meet your young lady." Dropping this sentence, he didn't even pay attention to Xiaoting, he went out of the room alone, and was a little annoyed, how could he tell the good news in advance.
Walked all the way out of the place where the maid lived. Wang Zhaolin angrily threw all the snacks in the tray on the ground, and stepped on the pastries with his feet, just happened to run into Li Yuanming who came over.
Looking down at the pastries on the ground, Li Yuanming's eyes darkened,
"What's the matter, why did you drop all the pastries on the ground, and you are so unhappy, I have never seen you like this." Wang Zhaolin, who was frightened, didn't dare to look directly, squatted on the ground and desperately put the fragmented pastries on the tray.
He replied in a panic: "It's nothing, it's just that this pastry is not delicious, bitter and unpalatable, not to mention, it's not fully cooked." These words made Li Yuanming notice, his eyes tightened, and he looked at a chicken cake that was intact, reached out and picked it up, and put it in his hand.
"Since what you said is so bad, then this king should also taste it." Fun, Li Yuanming opened his mouth and was about to bite down.
The startled Wang Zhaolin hurriedly snatched it from his hand and put it on the tray.
"Well, don't taste it, Zhaolin, let's dispose of these pastries." Timid, Li Yuanming just wanted to get out of here quickly.
Only he knew that this pastry was very poisonous, and if the prince ate it just now, it would be really bad.
This behavior made Li Yuanming even more suspicious, so he quickly took a pastry from the tray and put it on his sleeve, and then made way for Wang Zhaolin.
"Okay, you go and dispose of it, it just so happens that this king will find someone to test this pastry to see if it is as you said." With just this sentence, Wang Zhaolin collapsed to the ground in despair, wiped a handful of empty sweat on his forehead with his hand, got up and knelt down.
"Lord Wang, it's the fault of his subordinates, his subordinates didn't answer truthfully, in fact, these pastries are poisonous." Kneeling on the ground, he didn't say anything.
The corners of Li Yuanming's lips rose slightly, but his eyes looked at the courtyard behind him, and he said, "So, is this pastry used to poison that maid?" ”
"Yes, the subordinates have nothing to say, and ask the prince to punish him." After getting the correct answer, Li Yuanming was not annoyed, but said lightly: "It's just this once, don't take it as an example, get out." Now it's Wang Zhaolin's turn to tears, when did the master treat him so well that he didn't punish him.
Being looked at so directly, Li Yuanming was a little uncomfortable, and he spoke even more indifferently and urging,
"Why don't you leave and wait to be punished?" Hearing this, Wang Zhaolin hurriedly got up, and took a sneak look before leaving, and then left.
Even if Li Yuanming was not punished, he understood Wang Zhaolin's intentions for him, and he could only do his best to take care of him.
In fact, it is more of a regret, in this life, he is destined to be something that Wang Zhaolin will never get, because love is ruthless.
Suppressing these thoughts, he took the holy decree and went to Xiaoting's room. As soon as he entered the room, he handed the holy decree to Xiao Ting, who saw the holy decree for the first time, only glanced at it roughly, and handed it back cautiously, and was a little shy.
"The slave and the maid thank the prince for his attention, from now on we are husband and wife, the slave and the maid know that they can marry the prince, it is the greatest luck of the slave and the maid in this life, you will put a hundred hearts, the slave and the maid must take good care of the prince."
