Aunt Mu beckoned everyone: "Eat, eat while it's hot." He explained to Mingzhu again: "There were a lot of things just now, and I couldn't take care of you for a while, and when I took time out, it was already dark." ”

When Aunt Mu said this, she found that everyone refused to move the chopsticks, so she couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, thought about it, and took the chopsticks to add food to everyone as if she was angry. Mingzhu pressed her hand and said softly, "Auntie doesn't have to be like this, I believe in you." After speaking, he took the rice and chopsticks in Aunt Mu's hand, sat down and ate the first bite.

Concubine Min was so anxious: "Mingzhu! ”

Mingzhu invited Concubine Min and Princess Huayang to sit down: "I believe in Aunt Mu." She had known Aunt Mu for many years, and even after the Yew Wood Teacup Incident, she was still willing to believe Aunt Mu. What's more, she didn't believe that the Empress Dowager would use this method to poison them, and if she really wanted them to die so much, it would be good to hand them over to Empress Dowager Min directly.

Although Concubine Min and Princess Huayang sat down, they still didn't eat, but watched Mingzhu eat. Mingzhu ate two bowls of rice in a row before putting down the chopsticks and asked her, "Do you really not eat it?" ”

Concubine Min and Princess Huayang shook their heads, and Mingzhu stopped persuading them and asked Dong Hui and the others: "What about you?" ”

Dong Hui hesitated for a moment and said, "The slave is very hungry, and if she doesn't eat again, I'm afraid she won't have the strength to do things." The implication is that if she doesn't eat, if there is another accident, there is no way to save them, so she must eat.

Xia Yu and Xia Lu also picked up the rice bowl silently, while Mama Su shook her head and stood aside with her hands tied. Su Mei also refused to eat, she looked at Mingzhu and whispered: "The slave maid must take a breath, and she will be the last to die, so that she can tell His Highness everything." Mama Su also nodded, indicating that she also meant the same thing.

Mingzhu's eyes suddenly became sour, and he said continuously: "Okay, good." "The few people around her, except for Su Mei, who followed her when she was a child, Dong Hui who came halfway, Su Mama, Xia Yu, and Xia Lu both followed her recently, but no one is not sincere to her, and there is no one who is greedy for life and afraid of death.

When Aunt Mu saw this scene, she was thoughtful.

Because Concubine Min and Princess Huayang refused to eat, their maids didn't dare to do it, and Aunt Mu didn't care about them, and when Dong Hui and the others put the chopsticks, they let people take away the rest of the meal.

As soon as the door of the palace was closed, Concubine Min anxiously asked Mingzhu, "You don't feel uncomfortable, right?"

Mingzhu shook his head: "No." ”

Princess Huayang said in a low voice: "The sixth sister-in-law is too bold. ”

It's good to know some things yourself, and there is no way to force others. Mingzhu smiled and closed her eyes: "While it's warm and quiet here, let's take a break." ”

A maid brought by Princess Huayang suddenly fell to her knees, covered her stomach and moaned in a low voice, the sound became louder and more painful, and she rolled all over the ground. Princess Huayang was frightened enough, and hurriedly asked, "Lilac, what's wrong with you?" ”

Lilac raised her head and tried to answer her question, but she vomited a mouthful of blood, and everyone was terrified, and a few timid palace people even cried bitterly. Dong Hui hurriedly went over to check, Lilac grabbed her sleeve hard, trying to pull something out of it, but she was still powerless, blood spat out of her mouth, and soon, her eyes lost their luster.

Dong Hui grabbed her sleeve and took out half a steamed bun from it.

A maid who was standing with Lilac before was terrified: "She, she, she just stole a steamed bun and divided half of it, I didn't have time to eat it......"

The steamed buns are poisonous, and the steamed buns brought by Cai Fugui are highly poisonous.

Mingzhu shuddered and looked at the window where she had cut a small hole. At this moment, there are many people outside the window, and some people keep patrolling back and forth outside the window, preventing people like Cai Fugui from coming over to pass on news and things to her.

She thought that Cai Fugui was her father's person, but now it seems that Cai Fugui is not only not, but also vainly trying to kill their group. She thought that Mei Yuxi was humiliating and harsh them, but Mei Yuxi saved her life.

In this palace, it is really a deception, you have me, I have you. The other party knew that Yu Wenchu and Fu had people in this palace, and he also knew that she would inevitably contact those people and direct them to do things, so the other party took advantage of this opportunity to arrange for Cai Fugui to pretend to be Fu's people, and took advantage of this opportunity to send them half-truths and half-truths and a box of poisonous steamed buns.

If it weren't for Mei Yuxi coming in time, she would have died of abdominal pain and vomiting blood, just like the maid Lilac just now.

Princess Huayang cried bitterly and slapped the palace door: "Come on!" Come on! Someone here is going to die. ”

The door of the temple was quickly opened, and Mei Yuxi stood at the door with his hands behind his back and looked in, his cold face was calm, as if he had known that such a thing would happen.

Princess Huayang said loudly: "Hurry up and save her!" ”

Mei Yuxi didn't bring anyone with him, so he walked in, tried his hand on the nose of Lilac, and said coldly: "The person is dead, how can I save it." He didn't say much, but beckoned someone to come in and carry the cloves out.

Mingzhu stopped him: "Manager Mei! "You came in such a timely manner, are you from the British Royal Mansion or the Fu family?

Mei Yuxi turned her head to look at her, looking respectful and detached: "What does the princess of England command?" ”

"Can someone give us some futons?" Mingzhu never asked that sentence because it didn't make sense. If Mei Yuxi is really her own person, her question will undoubtedly cause him to reveal his identity, if not, it will be in vain to ask.

Mei Yuxi said coldly: "The Empress Dowager has no orders, and the slaves and maids cannot be the masters." ”

Princess Huayang hated his indifference just now, and said loudly: "What are the sixth sister-in-law and this vicious dog talking about? He is not human, and he cannot understand human speech. ”

Mei Yuxi bowed lightly and withdrew.

The first half of the night was spent peacefully, nothing else happened, the three more drums sounded, and finally someone couldn't stay sleepy, Princess Huayang leaned on the maid and said in a low voice: "I can't hold it anymore, Niuniu cried several times last night, I was very sleepy, and I want to sleep." ”

Mingzhu said: "Sleep, I will call you if there is something." Then he asked Concubine Min: "Mother concubine can also sleep for a while." ”

Princess Huayang muttered softly, "I don't want anything else." ”

Concubine Min also shook her head: "I can't sleep." ”

Mingzhu didn't persuade her, and called Dong Hui and a few people to arrange softly: "You can't stop resting, just take one person on duty for the night, and the others take turns to rest, and the people on duty at night are not allowed to wander or take a nap, and once they hear the movement, they must quickly wake everyone up." ”

Su Mei said: "I'm on duty, you all sleep." "Anyway, she doesn't have much skills, even if she rests enough, it's useless, it's better to let Donghui and them rest well.
