Xiao Mianmian shook her head, "Mom, I didn't eat it. That cake smells wrong and I don't want to eat it."

Du Wanchun then asked: "Do you feel uncomfortable now?"

Xiao Mianmian turned her head and glanced at the big mouse who had straightened up on the window sill, shook his head and said, "There is nothing uncomfortable."

"Mianmian probably didn't eat any poisonous cakes." Zhou Ruiyuan looked at the plate of pastries, "There are six snacks in total on the plate, and only that one is poisonous."

Han Yan'er loosened her hand covering her mouth, calmed down and said, "That's fine. If little Mianmian is poisoned, I can't escape my involvement."

Du Wanchun hugged Xiao Mianmian and stood up to comfort Han Yan'er, "Second brother and sister, you don't have to blame yourself. Someone obviously wanted to poison this pastry and murder us. It has nothing to do with you."

Han Yaner's eyes were red and she felt even more guilty.

Zhou Feng patted her shoulder gently and comforted her.

"Second brother and sister, where did you get this pastry?" Zhou Ruiyuan put down the plate in his hand and asked Han Yan'er. ?.?????.???

Han Yan'er thought for a while and replied: "I personally bought this pastry at the most famous pastry shop in Beijing. I held it myself on the way and no one took it over."

Zhou Ruiyuan said thoughtfully, "It seems like this pastry was poisoned before you bought it."

Han Yan'er raised her head suddenly, "Did someone already know our identities, so they took the opportunity to poison us?"

Zhou Ruiyuan nodded, "There is no airtight wall in the world. Since the emperor already knows it, there are always a few lax servants around him. It is not strange if the news spreads."

"Who could it be?" Zhou Feng asked, "Not long after you attended the birthday banquet at the Lu family, why did they start taking action so quickly?"

Zhou Ruiyuan turned sideways and looked at Xiao Mianmian, his eyes full of distress, and his tone became cold, "If I guess correctly, it should be Mr. Lu who did it."

"Master Lu?" Everyone was surprised.

Zhou Ruiyuan nodded, "That day when the emperor publicly announced that he would take me back to the East Palace in three days, his eyes were always looking at me. Mr. Lu was beside him. It was not difficult to find out. As long as he checked a little more, he would be sure. Our identity.”

Zhou Feng and Han Yaner suddenly realized.

The two then asked together: "If it is really Mr. Lu, what should we do? If he can poison him once, it means he can poison him a second time."

Zhou Ruiyuan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, held Du Wanchun's hand and said, "Don't worry, I won't give him a second chance."

Although he has served as the county magistrate in Cheng'an County these years, he knows everything about the capital.

Mr. Lu looked like he had high morals and respect. In fact, he was a prodigal more than ten years ago. He had numerous wives and concubines at home. Until later, I don’t know what happened. There were fewer and fewer young women in the house. Gradually, there are only a few left. A maid is here.

Ordinary people would think that Mr. Lu has changed his mind, but that is not the case. Those young women have other uses.

Zhou Feng and Han Yan'er only half-understood it, and had immense trust in this elder brother.

at night.

Zhou Ruiyuan took his wife and children back home. On the way, he held the hands of Xiao Mianmian and Du Wanchun and said softly: "After all, you have been wronged."

Du Wanchun raised his eyes to look at him and smiled: "No aggrievement, Master Lu wants to kill us, it's just a fantasy."

She said and hugged Xiao Mianmian gently.

Xiao Mianmian studied medical skills with Doctor Xu for a period of time, and has a different sense of smell than ordinary children. She can smell medicinal materials or poisons, even if they are colorless and odorless.

Du Wanchun had discovered this a long time ago, otherwise she would not have taken Xiao Mianmian out easily.

The emperor's spies were everywhere in the palace. In addition to keeping an eye on them to prevent them from running away, they could also naturally protect them.

The things in these stinking ditches cannot come out openly, so naturally they like to use this bad method of secretly poisoning.

She stopped smiling, and there was a hint of coldness in her eyes.

In the Lu Mansion five or six streets away from them.

Mr. Lu put his hands behind his back and asked the attendant behind him: "How is it? Have you been poisoned?"

The attendant held his sword and bowed his head and replied: "I'm down, but I don't seem to have heard of anyone passing away in the Zhou family."

Mr. Lu snorted coldly and said: "It seems that their lives are really good."

The attendant asked: "Sir, do you still need to continue poisoning?"

Mr. Lu lowered his eyes, "Wait a minute, don't rush. This time they found someone poisoning, they will be more careful. Now the emperor is very fond of the lost prince. If he knows about it, we will all die."

The attendant saluted and said, "Yes, sir."

Mr. Lu thought for a moment and then said, "Send someone to find more than ten beauties and send them all to the Zhou family for me."
