Chapter 045: Hit Your Own Feet
The people in the courtyard were shocked when they saw this.
Ji Shangyi hurriedly said to Ah Mai: "Ah Mai, go!" ”
Ah Mai hurriedly ran over, lifted Liu Biao, slapped him on the back a few times, and slapped the cake he ate out.
Ji Cheng immediately rushed over and pretended to help him rub his chest: "Cousin Shizi, are you okay?" This bread is so good, how can it be poisonous? ”
"Then I'm going to ask the group!" Liu Biao gritted his teeth. Suddenly, as if he thought of something, he immediately pushed Ji Cheng away and ran out.
"Shizi, Shizi, where are you going? Shizi, you slow down! Ji Cheng was still shouting behind him, but he didn't take a step forward.
The maids who brought the food were already stunned by this scene. Seeing Liu Biao run away, she was all stunned. Or Ji Shangye shouted: "Why don't you hurry up and bring the cake over?" Maybe you can wash away the grievances on your body. ”
The maids woke up like a dream, and quickly rushed out with food in their arms.
Ji Shangxie was already weak, even if she sensed that the situation was wrong, she could only get up slowly and move over slowly.
It was easy to walk up to Ji Cheng, and she asked in a deep voice, "Is this your ghost?" ”
Ji Cheng immediately turned around and stuck out his tongue at her, with a smug smile on his face: "I'm just going to teach him a lesson, see if he dares to disturb others to eat again!" ”
"You're so bold! If you dare to use what you just learned today, aren't you afraid that something will happen? Ji Shangxie said angrily.
Ji Cheng is still hippie and smiling. "I'm not afraid! Isn't this with Sister by your side? If something happens, you'll definitely help me! ”
"Actually, I didn't learn all the things on the parchment." Ji Shangye said helplessly.
"That's better than me! Anyway, sister, you're better than me! I'm sure you'll protect me! Ji Cheng smiled, a pair of bright eyes flickered, looking at her with trust.
This kid's mouth is so sweet, being coaxed by him like this, Ji Shangxie can't let out even if he has a full stomach.
"Forget it, since you've done it, then don't mention it. But you can't play this kind of trick in the future, A-Niang said, witchcraft is used to pray to the heavens, in order to make yourself and others live better, but not to prank people like you! ”
"Am I a prank? I'm also trying to make your life more comfortable, Sister! The kind of look he looks at you, I can't look at it disgustingly, let alone your daughter's family? The princess let him over, obviously just to disgust you. By the way, if she can let you carry a black pot again, she will definitely be more happy to see it. That woman has a lot of evil ideas in her heart, and I'm just treating others the way I want them now! Ji Cheng said unhappily.
"Didn't I say don't talk about it again?" Ji Shangxie said coldly.
Ji Cheng hurriedly lowered his head. "Sister, I was wrong, I won't mention it again."
"Hmm." Ji Shangxie was satisfied with his chin at this time, "Okay, sit down, let's eat!" ”
Yes? Ji Cheng was stunned. "Sister, why don't we go out and have a look?"
"Didn't my father tell me before that I wasn't allowed to leave your yard for half a step unless I went out to go back to my aunt's house?" Ji Shangxiao said lightly.
Ji Cheng smiled again. "Sister, you're right! I'm glad you reminded me, otherwise I'd have made a big mistake again! ”
So, he helped Ji Shangxie to go back and sit down, and then he sat down himself, and the sister and brother continued to eat deliciously.
As for Liu Biao...... Ji Cheng casually beckoned Nanshan: "You go to explain what happened to the princess on our behalf, and by the way, tell her your father's explanation!" ”
"No." Nanshan hurriedly went.
The sisters and brothers here were happily eating together, and Liu Biao's appearance was just a flash in the pan for them, and the sisters and brothers quickly left his existence behind. But Princess Pingyi felt like her head was about to explode at this moment!
"Auntie, you must kill those who want to poison me! I'm the prince of Changsha, and they dare to poison me one by one, so they should be cut with a thousand knives just because of this thought! Hurry up and get them, no one in the kitchen or the one who delivers the food is missing! ”
Looking at this nephew, who had angrily turned back and jumped up and down in front of her after leaving for a moment, the little appetite that Princess Pingyi had easily raised disappeared.
"Ah Leopard, are you mistaken? Your food, I specially asked the people in the small kitchen to cook for you, they usually cook for me, I have eaten it for so many years, and I haven't seen anything happen! And you're ...... talking so aggressively now, you really can't tell that you look like you've been poisoned.
Liu Biao was very angry. He pushed away the imperial doctor who was giving him a pulse on the side: "I almost died just now!" Thanks to my evil cousin's girl for helping me spit out the cake in time, otherwise I would have died by now! I'm already like this, auntie, are you still talking for those? In your eyes, am I important, or are those more important? ”
Princess Pingyi's face changed, and she hurriedly said, "Of course you are more important!" Ah Leopard, don't worry, my aunt will call someone to call the cook over! ”
After saying that, she hurriedly ordered left and right. At the end, he said, "Go and call the eldest lady and the eldest prince too." ”
"However, Nanshan has just said it, and the horses call them ......"
"Then go and talk to the colt first, and let the colt send someone to call them!" Princess Pingyi roared angrily.
The maid was trembling, and hurriedly went to find Ji Changshi.
Soon, the cooks came. Originally, they thought that Princess Pingyi thought that they had done a good job this time, and they wanted to reward them, so they were all happy when they came.
As soon as Liu Biao saw them smiling happily, he became even more angry. "Look, none of these are good things. Are you all starting to be happy now that I've been poisoned? ”
When the cook heard this, she was immediately frightened and her legs weakened, and she knelt down and shouted that she was wronged.
Princess Pingyi looked helpless. "The prince said that you poisoned the food, do you have any explanation?"
"Princess Mingjian, the slave is wronged!" As expected, the cooks shouted that they were wronged. However, when Liu Biao saw this, he immediately shouted, "This group of cheap maids has always been unable to shed tears when they don't see the coffin, and now it is not okay not to give them some punishment." ”
When Princess Pingyi heard this, her face turned pale in an instant.
However, Liu Biao insisted on shouting: "Auntie, do you still have to protect this group of cheap maids?" ”
Princess Pingyi gritted her teeth. "Come on, each of them will beat them five boards first!"
So, the crackling board sounded, and the wailing of the cooks resounded through the sky.
Stepping on these terrible wails, Ji Shangxie and Ji Cheng's sister and brother Shi Shiran appeared. "Get them over!" When Princess Pingyi heard the maid's report, she immediately gritted her teeth and roared.
Ji Shangye and Ji Cheng's sister and brother Shi Shiran came over, and Ji Shangye asked with a concerned face: "Princess, has the matter of the prince being poisoned been clarified?" ”
She still has the face to ask? Princess Pingyi secretly gritted her teeth: "I called you over for this matter." Tell me about it, what was going on? ”
The sister and brother didn't say a word, and told the situation one after another.
Princess Pingyi's sharp eyes swept towards Ji Cheng: "You said, you brought the cake that the prince ate?" ”
"yes!" Ji Cheng nodded, and those big and bright eyes looked at Princess Pingyi for a moment, "Could it be that princess, do you think I poisoned my cousin?" Why should I poison him? And I don't have any poison on hand, I don't believe you can ask someone to search me and go to my yard to check it!" ”
Such a calm appearance, is it really a sign of a clear conscience?
Princess Pingyi didn't believe it in her heart, and said softly: "Of course I know that you won't be poisoned." You're a good boy and have never done anything bad. It's just that now that you were present at the time of the incident, and you have come into contact with the bread that the prince ate, in order to give the prince a satisfactory explanation, I have to check you. ”
It's so reluctant, but the purpose is not to check? And with this woman's means, she quietly asked her people to prepare a little poison, and stuffed it into it while searching Ji Cheng's room, and it was very likely that she would turn it out again. Ji Shang's evil heart sank.
After Princess Pingyi said this, she immediately raised her hand: "Someone!" ”
"Princess, will you listen to me?" At this time, a soft and thin voice suddenly sounded.
Princess Pingyi looked over and found that it was Ji Shangxi. She raised her eyebrows excitedly: "What do you have to say?" ”
"I thought that Ah Yu was also the son of this mansion anyway, so it was not good to rashly let people search his residence. Since the problem now lies in the steamed cakes, if the poison is added by a person later, then it must only remain on the surface; But if it was added by someone in the kitchen, it wasn't necessarily. Therefore, I beg you, princess, to examine the cake a priori, and wait until you have determined the scope of suspicion, and then make the next step! "Ji Shang's evil and slow way.
Her plan to stall for time wasn't very clever.
However, seeing that she was in a hurry, Princess Pingyi was still very comfortable. In this case, she is also willing to see more of the anxious appearance of the two siblings.
"You have some truth in that, that's right, then let people check the cake first!" Unusually relieved of her own people, Princess Pingyi didn't say a word, just pointed to the cook and said, "These steamed cakes, as long as you think you haven't poisoned them, then eat them in public and show them to the prince!" ”
"Okay, let's eat!"
The cooks understood what she meant, and quickly pounced on her, grabbed it, and stuffed it into her mouth.
"Sister ......"
Seeing this, Ji Cheng slowly leaned over to Ji Shangxie's side. Ji Shangye smiled at him: "Don't worry. ”
"Well, I'm not worried." Ji Cheng hurriedly shook his head.
As he spoke, he heard the cooks screaming one after another. Some people reacted quickly, and quickly began to pick their throats and spit out all the bread they ate.
"This cake is really poisonous!" A maid was frightened when she saw this, and quickly shouted at the top of her voice.
Ji Shangxi's sister and brother also slowly raised their eyes, looking at Princess Pingyi's pale complexion, and the corners of their mouths invariably rose slightly.
