Xiao Mingyou was frightened and launched a high fever on the spot.

The prince summoned the imperial doctor and kept guarding the tent, Jiang Yunhua was inconvenient to go in, so he could only wait outside the tent for news, and he didn't look at Hua Rong.

Hua Rong knew that Jiang Yunqi wouldn't believe anything she said now, so when she was not so afraid, she picked up the corpse of the snake on the ground and threw it away.

Although he knew that it was a dead thing, and touched the cold and hard snake body with his own hands, Hua Rong still had goosebumps all over his body.

This instinctive fear is not something that can be overcome in a moment, but as long as you experience it enough, you will not be so afraid.

Fear and fear are the privileges of people who have grown up pampered, and she is a lowly maid, and she is not even qualified to be afraid.

After throwing the snake, Huarong wanted to find a place to wash her hands, but overheard someone talking in the forest.

“…… Today is really evil, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince took us into the forest as soon as we were blocked by a group of snakes, there will be no evil in this mountain. ”

"How did you turn into a snake, isn't it a mouse? I heard Li Si, who was at the forefront, say that a group of rats were moving, hula and running down the mountain, at least hundreds. ”

Hua Rong's mind instantly appeared with the picture of snakes and rats running in the mountains, her heart ached sharply, and extreme anxiety spread.

It's going to move!

A voice exploded in her ears, and Hua Rong hurriedly returned to the camp.

Ground movement is not a trivial matter, once it happens, I don't know how many people will be displaced, but just the snake and rat running away will not prove anything, and no one will believe her words.

Hua Rong wanted to discuss with Jiang Yunhua, but when she arrived outside the tent, she didn't see anyone, but a eunuch came out and said, "Miss Hua Rong, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to see you." ”

The eunuch's expression was not kind, Hua Rong clenched his fists, and forced himself to steady his mind and enter the tent.

In the tent, the imperial doctor had already retreated, the prince was sitting on a low bed, and Xiao Mingyou was leaning weakly in his arms.

Xu was frightened, Xiao Mingyou looked very insecure, no longer resisting the prince's touch, but a little dependent.

The prince's change of attitude towards Xiao Mingyou was very useful, but he was also more distressed that Xiao Mingyou was frightened in his absence.

As soon as Hua Rong entered the tent, the prince shouted coldly: "Kneel!" ”

The prince was obviously Huarong, but Xiao Mingyou shrank and said softly: "Your Highness, Miss Huarong is also a woman, it is normal to be timid, and the concubine does not blame her." ”

The prince, like Jiang Yunqiu, decided that Hua Rong deliberately left Xiao Mingyou to run away alone, Xiao Mingyou never mentioned that he threw a teacup and startled the snake, and took the opportunity to "magnanimously" intercede for Hua Rong to show his kindness.

The prince had no doubts, and hugged Xiao Mingyou's shoulders distressedly: "She only cares about running for her life, leaving you alone in danger, and you still have to speak for her?" ”

Xiao Mingyou smiled dignified and said, "Your Highness came back in time, isn't the concubine all right, Your Highness will look at the face of the concubine." ”

"If Bengu comes back late, can you still talk to Hongu now?"

The prince raised his voice, only to feel that Xiao Mingyou was too kind, and he was bullied by a lowly maid and was still pleading for her.

Xiao Mingyou stopped talking, her eyes instantly turned red, and she was still afraid of the rest of her life after the catastrophe.

The prince looked at Hua Rong and said: "The princess intercedes for you, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime is inescapable, don't you see the snake and be afraid, then the palace will let people gouge out your eyes, and you won't be afraid in the future." ”

Since he found out that Hua Rong's eyes were similar to Xiao Mingyou's, the prince was very unhappy, and now he had an excuse to gouge out Hua Rong's eyes.

"Your Highness!"

Xiao Mingyou snorted, as if she felt that the prince's decision was a little too bloody, but she was just frightened and didn't plead for Hua Rong anymore.

The prince hugged Xiao Ming and comforted him gently, gave a look to the soldiers standing aside, and motioned for them to pull the flowers down.

"Your Highness," Hua Rong mustered up the courage to speak, "The slave maid just heard that there are snakes and rats escaping in the mountains, this is a bad omen, I am afraid that there will be ground movements soon, please Your Highness take people back to the city first, and let the government issue a notice to evacuate the people!" ”

Hua Rong said very urgently, and her words were sincere.

But the word earth movement only appeared in the history books, and it was very unfamiliar to the prince's ears, and he didn't believe Hua Rong's words at all, but only thought that she was looking for an excuse in a panic in order to escape punishment.

Xiao Mingyou didn't care, but still asked timidly: "Your Highness, are there really snakes and rats escaping in the mountains?" ”

"The imperial aunt doesn't have to be afraid, this cheap maid is just deliberately exaggerating in order to avoid punishment, there are indeed records of ground movements in the history books of Zhaoling, but they all happened in the border areas, and such a thing has never happened in the Chenzhou territory, and it is very safe here."

The prince still reads a lot of history books, and he trusts his own judgment.

Xiao Mingyou showed a look of admiration, and turned to persuade Hua Rong: "Miss Hua Rong, the matter of earth movement is not trivial, you must not talk nonsense because you are afraid, in case it spreads out and causes panic among the people, you can't afford this responsibility." ”

Hua Rong also knew that she was soft-spoken, and there was no evidence, so no one would believe what she said, but her intuition told her that everything was true.

She stubbornly said: "The slave is willing to guarantee with her life, and beg His Royal Highness to quickly let the government inform the people and let them evacuate to a wide and flat place, but they can't find a place where the terrain is too low, after the ground movement occurs, the mountain collapses and blocks the river, and the water level will rise very dangerously, and there are ......."

"Enough!" The prince interrupted rudely and said sharply, "Drag out this who bewitches the crowd and cut it down!" ”

The two pro-soldiers dragged Hua Rong out, this was Jiang Yunqi rushing into the camp tent, and said anxiously: "Slow! ”

Jiang Yunyu had just been sent away by the prince, and as soon as he came back, he heard that the prince was going to cut off Huarong's head, and rushed into the tent and saw Xiao Mingyou leaning on the prince's arms.

But he couldn't think much about it at this time, Jiang Yunhua stopped his own soldiers, looked at the prince and asked, "I don't know what crime my maidservant has committed, Your Highness actually wants to cut off her head?" ”

The prince sneered: "You let her say it herself!" ”

Hua Rong told what happened again, she didn't argue for herself, she only said to Jiang Yunhua: "Young master, what the slave said is true!" ”

"Ah Hu, you are really powerful, she has the ability to be an unpredictable prophet, next time she does something wrong, she shouldn't say that she is the reincarnation of a goddess, right?"

The prince's tone was very sarcastic, and he didn't believe half a word of what Hua Rong said.

Xiao Ming said apologetically: "The concubine has already interceded for Miss Huarong, but the matter of the ground movement is too suspenseful, and the concubine doesn't know what to say." ”

said this, as if Hua Rong was stupid and looking for death.

Jiang Yunhua pursed his lips, Hua Rong didn't dare to pin her hopes on him, and said desperately: "Before sunset tomorrow, the earth will move, and if what the slave said is true or false, you will know when the time comes!" ”
