"The princess cares about this spring banquet... This is the first time that she and the prince have publicly attended such a banquet..." Yue Bai looked at Qin Ruilan and said, "Of course she will take it more seriously. Besides, the spring banquet is only for couples.

If you attend, the princess will inevitably be very concerned about this..."

After Liang Huanqing retched a few times, he stood up and looked at Qin Ruilan. While wiping his mouth, he patted his chest and said, "It's okay, sister Ruilan. I know about the plague. The prince has been busy with it recently."

The thing is, the symptoms of the plague include fever and red spots. I just have a loss of appetite. I’m afraid it’s due to the weather. It’s getting hotter and hotter recently. It’s inevitable that I can’t eat. Sister, don’t worry. As soon as the spring banquet is over, I will tell you

The imperial doctor came to take a look."

"You... why are you doing this?" Qin Ruilan looked at Liang Huanqing with an expression of incomprehension. Although the Spring Banquet was certainly important, what could be more important than his own life? If something really happened

, shouldn’t we regret it too late?

Seeing the worried looks on Qin Ruilan and Yue Bai's faces, Liang Huanqing smiled and said: "I know my own body well. It will be fine after today. I will definitely see the imperial doctor, okay? Don't worry about it.

.”

Seeing Liang Huanqing's repeated assurances, Qin Ruilan gave up: "Then you must send the imperial doctor to take a look. No matter what happens, you must send someone to tell me. Yuebai, you must supervise your princess."

Yuebai looked at Liang Huanqing, then looked at Qin Ruilan, nodded and said: "Don't worry, Miss Qin, even if the princess doesn't teach the imperial doctor, I will go to the prince and tell him, and then let the prince take care of the princess."

"You little girl, I don't know where you learned it. You must have been taught by Chu Qi!" Liang Huanqing looked at Yuebai and said with a smile pretending to be angry.

Liang Huanqing had already told Qin Ruilan about the matter of Zhuo Qi and Yue Bai. When he mentioned this, Qin Ruilan inevitably smiled at Yue Bai and asked: "When things stabilize in a few years, let the princess do the same."

Please marry me, and then we will all come to drink your wedding wine."

After saying this, Yuebai blushed. She lowered her head and said shyly, "Oh, Miss, you know how to make fun of me!"

Liang Huanqing and Qin Ruilan looked at each other and smiled, and then Liang Huanqing suddenly said: "Oh! You are just talking too much, please get me dressed! Your Majesty is still waiting for me!"

Then several people hurriedly returned to the dormitory to continue dressing up.

In the East Palace.

Zhao Peiyu was also sitting in front of the dressing table to dress herself up under the service of Han Yao. Zhao Peiyu looked at herself in the bronze mirror and remembered how happy and novel she felt when she attended the spring banquet for the first time. This is a person who can openly admit

When it comes to his identity, and at this time, Qi Jingyang has to be a hundred times gentler to him no matter what.

But things are different now. Zhao Peiyu no longer has the same joy and curiosity as the little girl back then. Over the years, she and Qi Jingyang have attended countless banquets, large and small. Even though the spring banquet has a special symbolic meaning, she

I no longer feel the joy.

Still dressing up in front of the bronze mirror as usual.

But there was something different today. Zhao Peiyu opened her palms and looked at the powdered medicine wrapped in oil paper lying in her palms. This is what she asked her father to bring from Shu. It is colorless and odorless. Take it.

Just such a small amount will cause an attack three hours later. Just this small amount can cause people to vomit blood and cause pain like broken bones and tendons all over the body, until they are tortured to death and can kill people.

Zhao Peiyu did not dare to take more than this, for fear that others would find out and be suspicious. The poison would only occur three hours after taking it, and there would be no warning. This is the power of this poison.

Speaking of being nervous, Zhao Peiyu was naturally nervous. As soon as something happened to Prince Jing Qi Jingqin, everyone would naturally think of the Prince of the East Palace, Qi Jingyang. Zhao Peiyu was afraid that she would implicate the prince, but she couldn't bear to see His Highness the Prince feel uncomfortable being restrained by Qi Jingqin.

Depressed and unhappy every day, Zhao Peiyu wanted to end it all.

She had thought about this plan for a long time. After much thought, she still didn't want to use those complicated methods. Although this simple and crude method was the most dangerous, it was also the safest and most appropriate. Three hours was enough to change everything, and no one could remember it.

I drank something special three hours ago. Besides, during the Spring Banquet, I ate countless things...

Zhao Peiyu didn't want to think about this. As long as Qi Jingqin died, everything would be fine. She just needed to ensure that Qi Jingqin could take the poison.

"Ah!" Just as Zhao Peiyu was immersed in her plan, Han Yao accidentally pulled off a piece of hair while helping her dress up. She screamed in shock and turned to look at Han Yao, "What are you doing!"

Han Yao was also startled. She quickly knelt down and kowtowed and said, "My slave deserves to die! My slave deserves to die! Crown Princess, calm down! Crown Princess, calm down!"

Zhao Peiyu saw her kneeling at his feet and begging for mercy. She was upset, and then said: "Okay! Get up, help me put on my makeup and hair, and be careful!"

"Yes! Yes." Han Yao carefully picked up the comb again and combed Zhao Peiyu's hair.

Zhao Peiyu looked at the small bag of poison in the palm of her hand again, and there were some beads of sweat on her palm. As the time for the banquet got closer and closer, the couples who were having a banquet outside the palace had already entered the palace, and she also

Unavoidably, I started to feel a little nervous.

But he couldn't help but think that it was the first time for Qi Jingqin and Liang Huanqing to participate in the Spring Banquet. There were some arrangements that Zhao Peiyu was not very clear about. How could he make Qi Jingqin take this packet of poison? If he gave it to him directly, what would happen to him?

You will definitely be on guard, you will definitely not take it, and maybe you will be exposed on the spot...

Zhao Peiyu thought about it, if it was used in the dishes used for the Spring Banquet, she could not guarantee that Qi Jingqin would definitely eat that dish. The same would be true if it was used in wine...

After thinking about it, the only way to do it is to toast in person... Although this method is a bit risky, and people will inevitably be suspected if something goes wrong, it is also the safest method...

Inside Yichun Hall.

Xia Rongxin was having a conflict with Qi Bingyu at this time. The last time Qi Bingyu took the initiative to step down for her, Xia Rongxin did not follow the trend and made the emperor lose face. However, after Xia Rongxin thought about it, she still wanted to let the emperor continue to pamper her, no matter what.

You can't have conflicts with the emperor like you are now, because it will always be inconvenient for you to complete your next plan.

In the palace, Xia Rongxin mainly relied on the emperor's trust and favor to benefit Qi Jingqin. Before marrying Liang Huanqing, Xia Rongxin talked to the emperor for a long time before the emperor agreed to the marriage. If not, everyone would know

The emperor could understand why Qi Jingqin wanted to marry Liang Huanqing. How could he bear to see Qi Jingqin and Qi Jingyang fighting. Under the circumstances, everyone still felt that Qi Jingyang should naturally ascend the throne.

If she wanted to prepare for the next plan, she would definitely have to borrow the emperor's trust. Xia Rongxin was considering whether to go to the Qinzheng Palace to convince the emperor. Thinking of Qi Bingyu's previous attitude, if she took the initiative to submit, Qi Bingyu would naturally

He won't pursue anything further. After all, Qi Bingyu was indeed ashamed of Xia Rongxin for what happened in the heavy snow.

After thinking for a long time, Xia Rongxin said to Aunt Yun Xi: "I want to go to Qinzheng Hall to see the emperor."

This sentence shocked Yun Xi. Her eyes widened in astonishment. She stopped dressing up Concubine Mei in her hand. It had been a long time since she had heard Concubine Mei talk about the emperor.

, and said quickly: "Yes, I will go and prepare now."

After Yun Xi finished speaking, she went to ask Rongfu to arrange a sedan chair, and then Xia Rongxin took the sedan chair to the Qinzheng Hall to meet the saint.

After arriving at Qinzheng Hall, He Yu stood at the door and saw Concubine Mei coming in a soft sedan chair from a distance. He quickly rubbed his eyes, worried that he had seen it wrong. After seeing it clearly, he quickly asked the little girl next to him to

The eunuch went in to report, and he rushed forward to greet him.

"Ouch! Imperial Concubine Mei is here!" He Yu is young, has fair and tender skin, and has a particularly endearing smile. Seeing the sedan stopped, He Yu said politely to Concubine Mei, "I'm here to say hello to Imperial Concubine.

May the noble concubine be blessed and safe."

Yun Xi helped Concubine Mei get out of the sedan chair, and He Yu stood in front of her with a polite smile.

Xia Rongxin looked at He Yu, nodded, and said, "No courtesy."

"The Imperial Concubine has not been here for a few days. The Emperor always talks about you. Today's spring banquet..." He Yu looked at the Imperial Concubine Mei and whispered, "The Emperor is still worried that you will ignore him..."

Naturally, this is just talking about people when you see people, and talking about ghosts when you see ghosts. In order to please Concubine Mei, He Yu naturally told her what she wanted to hear.

Xia Rongxin knew that these eunuchs were glib, but what they said was indeed pleasing to the ear. Her expression softened a lot, and then she asked: "Is the Emperor in the Qinzheng Hall?"

"I'm here, I've been reviewing the memorials in the Qinzheng Hall after the morning court. I thought that during this time, Mr. He would have to change the emperor into regular clothes and attend the spring banquet." He Yu nodded and bowed next to Xia Rongxin.

.

Xia Rongxin looked up at the three characters "Qinzheng Palace" and said nothing. Aunt Yun Xi stood beside her, looked at Xia Rongxin, then looked at He Yu and said, "Then why don't Eunuch He Yu hurry up and inform you?"

Just as he said that, He Sheng opened the door and welcomed Concubine Mei out. When he saw Concubine Mei, his face seemed to be blooming. For more than half a month, I have been looking forward to the stars and the moon, and I have been looking forward to Concubine Mei!

He Yu watched He Sheng come out, and then smiled at Yun Xi and said, "I informed you when I saw your queen coming early, but Manager He came out to greet her in person."
