Chapter 491: Crisis at every turn

Since the last time Lin Yingxue said that she wanted to eat sour, Mingxiu asked her family to prepare some and send them to the palace.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You have to be good in the palace, and being able to serve by the queen's side is a blessing that others can't ask for. Look at the maid ring next to the queen's mother, but now she has become the general's wife! ”

"My mother doesn't expect you to have such a big income, I just ask you to be safe and sound, and you will go out of the palace and marry a good family in the future......"

Mingxiu has never met her family since she entered the palace, and at this time, by giving Lin Yingxue plums, the mother and daughter finally reunited.

Mingxiu wiped away her tears and said, "Mother, don't worry, the queen is fine, everything is fine in the palace, you and your father can take care of themselves at home." ”

After the mother and daughter talked inseparably for a long time, Ming Xiu returned to Chaofeng Palace with a small basket of plums.

"Niangniang, the slave has washed all these plums, how about you taste them?" Lin Yingxue didn't like the people below to cry and cry when they had nothing to do, so as soon as she returned to the palace, Mingxiu was like nothing had happened, eagerly talking about other things.

Lin Yingxue had a great appetite after seeing those green plums, and when she heard Mingxiu say this, she immediately picked up a plum and tasted it.

"How's it going?" Seeing Lin Yingxue's expression of enjoyment, several palace maids were very curious.

Lin Yingxue bent her eyebrows and nodded, "It's delicious, you can taste it too." ”

Several palace maids began to swallow saliva as early as when they saw these plums, and at this time, Lin Yingxue spoke, and naturally they all couldn't wait to pick up the plums and taste them.

'Sizzle' took a bite, and there was a sudden gasping sound in the room, "Niangniang, this plum is so sour, why do you still think it's delicious......

The faces of several palace maids were deformed with acid, and they looked at Lin Yingxue with puzzled expressions.

However, Lin Yingxue picked up the second plum like no one, "Where is sour, this palace thinks it's just right." ”

Seeing Lin Yingxue eating with relish, several palace maids suddenly stopped talking - sure enough, this one with a body is different from normal people like them.

Lin Yingxue seemed to like the plums sent by Mingxiu's house, and ate the small basket of plums in a few days, and after eating this sour, Lin Yingxue's appetite seemed to be better, at least she could eat something.

"Why don't the slave maid let the family send some more plums into the palace, but the doctor said that the mother can't eat too much sour, and this time the mother should be more restrained."

Several palace maids look at her like thieves now, for fear that she will steal the sour plums in the palace.

Lin Yingxue couldn't cry or laugh for a while, "You little girls, taking advantage of the fact that the palace doesn't have the energy to teach you a lesson now, you are in charge of the palace." ”

"The slaves and maids have been ordered by the emperor himself!" Mingyue helped Lin Yingxue to the chair and sat down, "If Niangniang thinks that the slaves and maids have done something bad, when the child is born safely, Niangniang can teach the slaves and maids whatever she wants!" ”

"You guys, learn it all now

will use the emperor to press the palace. To be honest, Lin Yingxue was really afraid that Murong Jun would come to her, after all, she could look at her like a baby now, and she couldn't wait for her to lie in bed all day long.

She can only take advantage of Murong Jun's busy time to catch her breath every day.

The second batch of plums was soon sent to the palace, and Lin Yingxue felt that she wanted it a lot after not eating it for a few days.

"Mingxiu, you quickly wash some to let the palace taste it." Lin Yingxue had already begun to swallow her saliva unconsciously.

Looking at Lin Yingxue's pitiful appearance, Mingzhu and the others couldn't bear to control Lin Yingxue too strictly, "Niangniang can eat if she wants, but she can't eat too much, and she has to promise the slaves and maids that she will have to eat half a bowl of rice in a while, how about it, can Niangniang agree?" ”

"Hongu agrees." Now as long as Lin Yingxue can eat plums, she is willing to let her give up this posterior position.

In a short time, the washed plums were served.

Although there are only a few, it is enough for Lin Yingxue to satisfy her hunger.

Lin Yingxue picked up a plum and was about to put it in her mouth, but there was a sudden shout from outside the door: "Niangniang, wait!" ”

When everyone heard the sound, they couldn't help but turn their heads to look at the door, only to see the daughter of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, Su Lingxi walking in anxiously with her skirt, and there was a palace maid who followed the trotting in behind her.

"Niangniang, the slave maid originally planned to come over to report, but Su Guiren said that there was something urgent to find Niangniang, so she rushed in by herself." The palace maid frowned and explained anxiously.

Lin Yingxue looked at Su Lingxi panting and sweating, and couldn't help but raise her hand, "It's okay, you guys go down first." ”

"I don't know why Su Guiren came to the palace in such a hurry." In front of outsiders, Lin Yingxue has reverted to the dignified and generous queen mother.

"Hui Niangniang, this, this plum can't be eaten!" Su Lingxi paused for a while before he could be considered relieved.

Hearing this, Lin Yingxue, including Lin Yingxue, and several other people in the room were taken aback.

Mingxiu was even more excited: "What does Su Guiren mean by this, this plum was just picked from the tree by the slave's parents and sent to the palace, what can be the problem?" ”

As Mingxiu spoke, he grabbed a plum and ate it cleanly with sourness.

"What's the matter, the slave and maid are finished eating now, don't they have nothing to do?" Mingxiu's little face was flushed with anger, after all, to say that there was a problem with her plums was to say that she had a problem, if she couldn't explain things clearly, she would lose her head!

"That's not what the concubine meant." Su Lingxi didn't bother with Mingxiu, but frowned and explained: "The concubine just saw a big push of thrown plums in the backyard, and remembered that the queen mother was the only one who ate plums in this palace, and she was afraid that there was anything related to it, so she specially rushed over to tell her mother." ”

"Really?" Lin Yingxue looked down at the plums in her hand, which were verdant and looked particularly attractive.

"Take it down and check it out for the Imperial Doctor." Regardless of whether what Su Lingxi said was true or not, as long as there was the slightest mistake, she had to guard against it.

"Yes." Mingxiu took the plum and retreated, and returned it when he left

He didn't forget to glare at Su Lingxi angrily.

"Su Guiren must be tired all the way here, so it's better to sit down and have a sip of tea." Lin Yingxue smiled lightly and invited Su Lingxi to sit down.

It's just that I didn't expect to be rejected by Su Lingxi, "No, the concubine is just here to remind the mother, and now that the words have been brought, the concubine will not stay longer." ”

After Su Lingxi finished speaking, he bowed down and retreated without waiting for Lin Yingxue to speak again.

"This Su Guiren's temperament is a little strange." After seeing Su Lingxi walk away, Mingzhu stepped forward and said: "I am usually cold and indifferent, and I have never seen anyone who is particularly close to the little master, but I didn't expect it to be quite warm-hearted." ”

"Some people can't see through it just by looking at it." Lin Yingxue said thoughtfully.

After sitting in the room for a while, Mingzhu came back with red eyes.

As soon as he entered the house, Mingxiu knelt down with a 'plop', "Niangniang, the slave is guilty, please punish the slave and maid!" ”

"Reprimand? Rise up first and tell me what is going on. Looking at Mingxiu's reaction, Lin Yingxue had already guessed something in her heart.

Sure enough, Mingzhu choked up and said: "The slave maid just took the plum to the imperial doctor for examination according to the instructions of the mother, and the imperial doctor said that the plum had been soaked in some poisonous water in advance, and even if it was washed cleanly, there would be some residue." ”

"If a normal person eats these plums, it will cause diarrhea and abdominal pain. However, if a pregnant person eats too much in the early stage, it will lead to ...... Miscarriage ......"

When the word 'miscarriage' came out of Mingxiu's mouth, the temperature in the room seemed to drop.

Lin Yingxue involuntarily touched her stomach, "You don't have to be afraid, this palace believes that this matter has nothing to do with you, didn't Su Guiren say that someone handled a large number of plums?" ”

"Maybe someone dropped the plums and these plums sent by your family, you go and check secretly to see what is going on."

Lin Yingxue's trust moved Mingxiu's heart greatly, she raised her sleeves and wiped her tears, and replied in a deep voice: "Yes, the slave will go and find out who wants to assassinate the mother!" ”

With that, Mingzhu turned and retreated.

And after Lin Yingxue experienced such a thing, she couldn't help but feel a little afraid.

Mingzhu on the side looked at Lin Yingxue's face and didn't seem to be very good, so she couldn't help but step forward and said with concern: "Is there something uncomfortable about Niangniang?" The slave maid should help the mother to go in and rest for a while. ”

"Hmm." Lin Yingxue replied in a low voice.

Lin Yingxue went back to the room and lay down, and fell asleep with a frown after a while.

The room was quiet, but Lin Yingxue didn't sleep too peacefully.

After squinting for a while, Lin Yingxue opened her eyes. She was limp and weak, and she slowly tried to move her body.

But when her eyes touched the table, her eyes widened, and a chill rushed to her mindβ€”a dead young bird and a green plum had been released on her table at some point.

Who is it? While Lin Yingxue was flustered, the feeling of wanting to vomit came up again.

"Someone!" She hurriedly turned her head away, and said to Ming, who came in soon

Zhu said: "Quickly dispose of the things on the table." ”

"This ......" Mingzhu was also shocked when he saw the dead young bird on the table.

She picked up the two things and was about to leave, but she heard Lin Yingxue say: "Be careful, don't be discovered, besides, don't let the emperor know about this." ”

"But ......" Mingzhu knew that Lin Yingxue was afraid that Murong Jun would worry, so she didn't say anything in the end, and hurriedly retreated with her things.

As soon as Mingzhu left, the room was quiet again.

In the past, Lin Yingxue was quiet, but now being too quiet will make her feel a little flustered for no reason, and it feels like she knows that someone in the dark is staring at her, but there is no one around her who can protect her.

Who put these things, and the sword spike from last time...... Could it really be Murong Xun?
