I walked slowly, at this time, Daddy and Auntie, the prince of the East Palace, had already walked in front, a little far away from me, and I was not in a hurry to rush over, so I was slowing down. I don't know if I was flustered and reckless, or the servants in the house were reckless and hit me directly on the shoulder. There was a tingling pain, and I gasped in pain. When the servant saw that he had bumped into me, he immediately knelt down and kowtowed desperately, and said with a crying voice: "Miss forgiveness, Miss forgiveness, the slave maid was a little distracted just now and bumped into Miss." ”

Qing Lian saw that his eyes were bulging, his eyes were like copper bells, and he said, "Do you have long eyes when you walk?" If you hurt the young lady, can you afford it? ”

Maybe it's because I have a gentle and gentle personality, and I don't like to punish or blame others easily, and the same is true for the servants in the house. I smiled at the servant, "It's fine. ”

The servant lifted her head, and it was a raw face. I was about seventeen or sixteen years old, with a delicate face and sparkling eyes, as if I were not a servant or a young lady from Beppu, and I was suspicious. But think about it again, don't many maids in the house look like this? Although it is a few points more disfigured than her, it is estimated that she is a newcomer.

I didn't think much of it, I didn't stay long, and I kept following.

By the time I arrived, Daddy and Auntie, and the prince of the East Palace had already sat down. Ah Niang reproached softly: "Qinghuan, you are too slow, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a distinguished guest, how can you make His Highness wait for a long time?" Have you forgotten the hospitality that A-Niang taught you? ”

I was about to step forward to admit my mistake, but I saw the prince say lightly: "It's okay." Seeing that His Royal Highness said this, A-Niang didn't want to say a few more words, if she continued to pursue it, it would seem that she was a little childish.

"Serve." Daddy waved his hand, and the maid next to him "snorted" and withdrew, but as soon as he withdrew, a servant came to serve the food immediately. I only heard Qinglian muttering in a low voice: "Why haven't I seen any of these people, when did they recruit them, why don't I know?" "I looked at the faces of these servants, and they were also unfamiliar. I have always asked Qinglian to go to recruit servants, but Qinglian really doesn't know when these servants came, so I can't help but feel a little strange.

In the face of the prince, I didn't express my doubts, but just held them in my heart. I thought, after the prince leaves, I must ask Daddy to investigate this matter thoroughly, recently Shangshu Shilang and Daddy have formed a bond, I am afraid that I will do something unfavorable to Daddy.

"Along the way, there are a few guards in the Shen Mansion." The Prince's voice brought my thoughts back.

I don't know what the prince meant by this, but I somehow believed in my heart that he wouldn't harm me. Anyone who has heard of the Shen Mansion knows that the servants up and down the Shen Mansion even serve tea and food and know some three-legged cat kung fu. Along the way, where is there less trivial maids? After I listened, I glanced at Qinglian, who walked up to me knowingly and whispered, "Miss, what's the matter?" I clung to her ear and said, "Pass it on, send more guards to guard it, and tie up those unfamiliar servants first." ”

I would never punish a servant, let alone tie them up. Qinglian has been by my side for many years, and he has long been accustomed to my way of doing things, so when I say this, I must naturally know that I will not mess around, and I must have a square inch. She bowed to me, said yes and stepped back.

Seeing the prince say this, Daddy smiled and said, "The Shen Mansion has never liked to argue with outsiders, so why do you need so many people? I chuckled, and finally knew why Daddy was so favored by the saints. The implication is that my Shen Mansion has always been kind to people, and I specialize in doing things that benefit the country and the people, where will anyone harm us? A pun intended. It not only shows that the Shen Mansion will not participate in those things that endanger the people and the country, but also shows that the Shen Mansion has no ambition and only seeks stability and serves the imperial court to be reused.

But who are the people sitting here? The prince naturally heard what Daddy said. "This court has a loyal minister like Shen Shangshu, and he is not afraid of corruption in the court."

"Your Highness has lifted up." Daddy shook his head.

I saw that the air pressure on this table was getting lower and lower, and I looked back and smiled: "Your Highness, the food is delicious while it is hot and will not hurt your body, if you continue to talk like this, the food will be cold." ”

There is a folk etiquette, but whenever a guest comes, the guest must be allowed to move the chopsticks first before continuing to eat. This kind of etiquette is not only for the people, but also for bureaucratic families and royal families.

His lips were extremely thin, and they were as red as blood. He picked up the "Poria Cocos Cake" that I had mentioned and tasted it, his sword eyebrows furrowed slightly, I thought it was this Poria Cocos Cake that was not to his liking, and took the lead in asking: "Your Highness, is this Poria Cocos Cake not to your liking?" The courtiers will find someone to replace them. The prince smiled and said, "It's not that Poria cake doesn't suit the appetite of this palace, it's just that this palace is not good at eating cold food first." When I heard this, I nodded, put some hot food in His Highness's bowl with chopsticks, and gave the vegetables to Daddy and Auntie according to the etiquette, and then began to eat.

As soon as I tasted this dish, it was indescribably weird, so I looked up and asked A-Niang: "A-Niang, how do you feel about today's dish?" Ah Niang didn't seem to notice anything, and replied: "Isn't this the same as usual?" What's wrong Qinghuan? Is there something missing from this dish? I didn't say anything, I ate properly, but the more I thought about it, the more confused I became. It's not a seasoning, it's not like it's not fresh, it's something added to the dish! Then it dawned on me that these meals were made by those people with strange faces, and when I looked up at the prince, he had not eaten anything at all, and he had not moved the food I had put in his bowl.

I became more and more convinced that there must be something in the meal, and I tried to get up, only to realize that my head was dizzy. When I wanted to call Qinglian, I remembered that she had arranged for me to go down and watch those servants. I smiled mockingly at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and he also saw me, a good ploy, which made me mistakenly think that it was the servant, but I didn't expect it to take the people in the house away. Those guards were outside the Shen Mansion, and I didn't even have the strength to speak normally, let alone call the guards over. I even stupidly believe that he won't harm me, where do I really get my confidence? When I tried to look at Daddy and Auntie with a little more strength, they had already fainted, but fortunately they were safe and sound, and suddenly my eyes were dark and I fainted.

In a daze, I noticed that someone lifted me up, and my hands and feet felt like something was trapped......

Soon after, I was literally unconscious, completely unaware of what was going on.

At that time, I just thought how nice it would be if Ache was there!
