Yue Nu had no choice but to wave to the other maids and carry the "dying" Mingzhen onto the carriage.
"Why hasn't mother come yet?" Mingzhen lifted the car curtain and looked around, "Where is the person who brought the message? Why hasn't he come back yet?" ap.
"Back to Your Highness, the fourth son has just sent a message, saying that His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess has been invited by the Lin family to attend their daughter's hairpin ceremony. The family lives in a courtyard on the outskirts of the city, which is a bit far away from the city. I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money. Some effort!"
"It's really troublesome!" Mingzhen looked impatient, "Then the daughter of the Lin family is so stupid, is she worthy of my mother? If I let this gift ruin my good deeds, I will make her unable to eat and walk around! "
Yue Nu didn't dare to say anything and just listened silently.
"Send someone to invite me again!" Mingzhen ordered, "No matter what nonsense or hairpin etiquette, I am about to die from poison, she must come back quickly to make the decision for me! Today's drama depends entirely on her, If she doesn't come, won't my efforts be in vain? And didn't I tell her to reject the Lin family? Why does she have to go? As my daughter, won't she listen at all? "
"It was after Your Highness learned about what happened today that Your Highness the Eldest Princess refused..." Yue Nu whispered back, "But today is the official day. I agreed to be the guest of honor at the ceremony and comb the hair of the Lin family girl. Suddenly If you don’t go, it will be difficult for the Lin family to find someone temporarily, and it will appear very rude and offend others..."
Halfway through her words, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her wrist. She knew without looking that the beautiful armor on Mingzhen's hand had dug into her flesh again.
Having been gouged out many times, she was now rich in experience. She didn't dare to cry out for pain or beg for mercy. She just knelt on the soles of Mingzhen's feet and kowtowed.
"You bitch, you just have an itchy skin!" Mingzhen let go of his hand with a sigh, "You tell me this, do you mean to say that I don't know the etiquette?"
"I don't dare!" Yue Nu shook her head desperately, "I just want to explain clearly that Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess didn't listen to His Highness's words. She has to go..."
"Stop talking!" Mingzhen waved his hand, "It's so annoying! Anyway, I don't care about this princess. If things don't work out today, no one will think about it! She'd better get here in time, otherwise... hum!"
She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, as if she was not talking about her adoptive mother who had always doted on her, but her enemy.
Yue Nu looked at her distorted face and felt that she was once again not worthy of the eldest princess.
After working hard for so many years, she has raised such a monster. He pretends to be well-behaved and docile in front of her, but behind his back he is full of poison. With such a master, Yue Slave is always on tenterhooks every day, fearing that one day she will commit something. There is no way to escape, and I will take the blame for my despicable life.
However, it is useless to be afraid. The lives of her whole family are in Mingzhen's hands. They can only obey her and do not dare to disobey her in the slightest. They also have to help her hide the eldest princess and what she has done. Those immoral things she did, more often than not, she was forced to join in and do those shameful things for her.
In the past, Mingzhen only dealt with ordinary people who she didn't like, but today was different. Today she played a big game and directly poisoned the noble daughter of the aristocratic family.
Now that the large furniture has been brought into the palace for treatment, Miss Su doesn't know whether she can cure the poison. If she can't cure it, the noble daughter of the family and the nurses will all die. This is an earth-shattering event, and we must get to the bottom of it. Thoroughly investigated!
Although Mingzhen thought he was smart and pulled Xu Qiang to take the blame, those in the court were not fools, and the prince was neither!
These people are the best among human beings, especially Prince Xiao Lin. When he looked at Mingzhen just now, Yue Nu was beside him, and he felt that his heart was about to jump out of his throat!
That man's eyes were so sharp. Although he didn't say anything, Yue Nu always felt that he had connected the poisoning with Mingzhen!
After all, Mingzhen has a criminal record!
When she plays tricks in front of such a man, she feels that he can't find any flaws in her and that she has everything under control.
Yue Nu felt that Mingzhen was clearly seeking death!
She really doesn't want to die!
In the dark alley, Lu Qianmo and Shao Huili Sangying were huddled at the corner, staring at Li Rufeng and others not far away.
See them already
A large group of people gathered in the circle and went to the carriage to "invite" them. The three of them were a little frightened.
"Fortunately, I reacted quickly and asked Mei Niang and the others to retreat in time!" Shao Huili stroked her chest, "Otherwise, if I were taken to the palace for interrogation, I would probably have done anything!"
"Yes, yes!" Sang Ying nodded vigorously, "Let's evacuate quickly! If we are found here and we are caught, it will be over!"
Lu Qianmo nodded: "Let's all go our separate ways! We have done what we should do, and leave the rest to our Princess! I have other things to do, so I won't say more to you!"
After that, he limped away.
Shao Huili and Sang Ying nodded to her and left one after another.
The three of them walked quickly, fearing that they would be detected by the guards, but they did not notice that in the alleyway they were walking in, there were several people dressed as hawkers, looking at them coldly.
Seeing them leaving, they spread out and followed each other.
The tracking skills of the East Palace guards are unparalleled in the world. They are extremely good at disguise. When tracking someone, it is difficult for even martial arts masters to detect it, let alone an inexperienced and weak woman like Lu Qianmo Shao Huili.
There were six people in the group, three of them each chased the three women, while the remaining three hurried back to the palace to resume their duties.
At this time, there were several carriages in the city, and they were also rushing towards the palace!
The eldest princess was combing the Lin family's daughter's hair. Halfway through the combing, the Mingzhen sect's servant arrived out of breath. When she learned that her daughter was poisoned and was dying, she immediately burst into tears.
The Lin family knew that she loved their daughter dearly, and they were shocked beyond words when they heard the bad news. They quickly arranged for the fastest carriage to accompany her to the palace.
"Hurry up! Why are you so slow?" the eldest princess cried and urged, "My miserable daughter! She lost all her family members at such a young age and became an orphan. It was not easy to raise her to such an old age, but something like this happened again. ! If something happens to her, how can I survive? I won’t survive!"
She was heartbroken and burst into tears. At the same time, faint sobbing could be heard from a speeding carriage on the official road leading to the palace.
This is Prime Minister Gao and his wife, Mrs. Yuan.
The two of them only got this thousand gold in old age, and they looked at it like eyeballs. Because the Prime Minister reprimanded Gao Yue this morning and wanted to ground him, Yuan felt very distressed and scolded him severely, forcing the Prime Minister to When the ban was lifted, Prime Minister Gao refused. She even had a fierce fight with him and even threatened to return to her parents' home.
Who would have thought that the bad news would come before her mother's chair was warmed up? After hearing what happened, Yuan's heart was aching and heartbroken!
