When no one responded, Yan Qiqi and Yin Tianjue looked at each other, with a strange look in their eyes.
Yan Qiqi walked slowly to the screen, turned her head and looked inside...
At this moment, I heard movement at the door and turned around to look.
They saw two palace maids walking in from outside. When they came in, they saw Yin Tianjue and his wife standing there, and they were immediately surprised.
He quickly ran over and knelt on the ground, "Slave, please see Prince Rui and Princess Rui."
Yin Tianjue stared at the two palace maids on the ground with his sharp eyes, and asked coldly, "Where is the twelfth prince?"
One of the palace maids raised her head and said timidly: "Back to King Rui, the young prince is sleeping inside."
"Ming'er sleeping in the inner hall?" Yan Qiqi's brows furrowed even more.
Why didn't anyone answer him in the palace? If Ming'er was asleep, it would be understandable that he didn't hear her when she called for someone.
Ming'er usually doesn't have anyone around her, there should be a palace maid or eunuch watching over her.
The voice she called someone just now was loud, and someone would have heard it, but no one came out. It was obvious that there was no one else inside except Ming'er.
"Why don't you look after Ming'er? He is ill now. If anything happens, can you afford it?" Yan Qiqi narrowed her eyes slightly and said coldly.
Her voice was calm but full of majesty, making people dare not resist.
The palace maid showed a hint of fear on her face and said hurriedly: "This..."
But when the words came to his lips, he immediately swallowed them back, as if he had something to hide.
"What is this? The princess is asking you something, please tell me quickly." Yin Tianjue said impatiently with a stern face.
The palace maid was frightened by his words and panicked, "Yes, slave, slave, just say, yes..."
She got stuck again at this point, seemingly afraid to speak.
Yan Qiqi curled her lips slightly and turned her eyes to another palace maid, "You tell me."
"Yes, Princess." This maid was bolder than the one just now. Although she had some estimates, she still said it.
"It's the Twelfth Prince. He asked the slaves to go out. He said he didn't want to see anyone, and..." At this point, he glanced at Yan Qiqi secretly.
Yan Qiqi lowered her eyes and said softly, "What else, go on."
"Still..." The palace maid secretly took a breath and continued, "Still clamoring for his mother-in-law."
After saying that, he raised his eyes and glanced at Yan Qiqi again, as if to see if her expression had changed.
Yan Qiqi just frowned slightly and looked at them again.
I don't know why, but I always feel that the palace maid looks at her with something strange.
She knew these two palace maids, she had served Ming'er before, and there were two eunuchs, one of whom she was most familiar with was called Xiao Li.
"You guys, get up. By the way, where's Little Plum?" Yan Qiqi looked around and saw that except for a few of them, there was no trace of anyone anywhere.
The two palace maids immediately stood up, lowered their heads and said: "Back to the princess, Xiao Zhou has been transferred away, and Xiao Lizi has gone to the Tai Hospital to get medicine."
"You stay outside and wait for dispatch." Yan Qiqi told them, then turned to look at the man next to her and said, "Let's go see Ming'er."
"Yeah." Yin Tianjue nodded slightly, took her hand and walked inside.
When he walked into the inner room, he saw Yin Tianming lying on the bed. He was sleeping with his little body sideways and facing inside.
Yan Qiqi walked over and touched his forehead. There was no sign of fever. His breathing and pulse were normal. It should be nothing serious. Then he felt relieved.
He reached out and pulled Yin Tianjue, who was standing on the side, and whispered: "Ming'er is sleeping, let's go back."
They were about to turn around when they suddenly heard movement behind them.
"Ming'er, are you awake?" Yan Qiqi walked over again, sat beside the bed and asked softly.
Yin Tianming did not answer her, but his little hands outside the quilt were squeezed together tightly, and his little body trembled a few times, as if he was afraid.
It was obvious that he had woken up, but why didn't he want to sit up and talk to her.
Yin Tianjue also noticed something strange, and looked at each other with Yan Qiqi, showing a trace of doubt.
Yan Qiqi narrowed her eyes slightly and sighed deliberately: "Oh, I finally got into the palace to see Ming'er. Who knew Ming'er was sleeping, and she didn't know when I would be able to enter the palace next time."
After saying that, he got up and wanted to leave.
"Fourth, fourth sister-in-law..." Yin Tianming immediately sat up and buried his little head in Yan Qiqi's arms.
Yan Qiqi touched his little head and asked softly: "Ming'er, what's wrong with you?"
"I, I miss my concubine, wuwu..." Yin Tianming still buried his head in her arms and cried softly.
Yan Qiqi's eyes flashed slightly, and she looked down at the little body in her arms, with a strange light in her eyes.
Patting his back gently, he asked doubtfully: "Ming'er, do you know that your mother-in-law is no longer alive?"
Her words made Yin Tianming visibly tremble, and then he said softly "Hmm," but still didn't want to come out.
Yan Qiqi frowned slightly and held his small body with both hands, "Ming'er, be good, you get up first, it's uncomfortable lying down like this."
"I don't want it." Yin Tianming shook his little head, holding on to the skirt of her clothes with one hand, unwilling to let go.
"Ming'er, ugh." Yan Qiqi was shaking her head helplessly. Suddenly, her eyes widened and she looked at the little body in her arms in disbelief, "You..."
She quickly pulled the little body away from her arms, only to see Yan Qiqi holding a slender needle in her hand, which hit her waist.
"Aqi, what's wrong with you?" Yin Tianjue also noticed something strange about her and hurriedly walked over.
"I'm fine." Yan Qiqi shook her hand to express that she was fine.
She did not pull out the needle immediately, but just squeezed it tightly. She looked at Yin Tianming who was sitting on the side with a guilty expression in confusion.
"Ming'er, why did you want to kill the fourth sister-in-law?"
There must be something wrong with this, and someone must be deliberately trying to confuse him.
When Yin Tianjue heard this, he was immediately shocked and stretched out his hand to take her hand away.
He glanced nervously at her waist, his eyes flashed slightly, and he calmly covered her waist for Yan Qiqi.
His sharp eyes stared coldly at Yin Tianming, "Ming'er, your fourth sister-in-law treats her so well, why do you want to kill her?"
Yin Tianming squeezed his two little hands tightly and looked at Yan Qiqi who was about to die. His eyes were full of self-blame. He wanted to ask, but something came to mind, and his little face turned away stubbornly.
"Jue, don't blame Ming'er. He is still young and must have been bewitched by others." Yan Qiqi leaned weakly on Yin Tianjue's arms and said weakly.
Yin Tianjue frowned and said angrily to Yin Tianming: "What are you talking about? Do you know that if you do this, she will die?"
"I, I..." Yin Tianming began to feel at a loss. He raised his eyes and looked at Yan Qiqi doubtfully, and whispered in a low voice, "Fourth, fourth sister-in-law, is she really going to die?"
"You..." Yin Tianjue was speechless. It turned out that he didn't know that Ah Qi would die if he did this. However, he was relieved that he didn't really want to kill Ah Qi.
She raised her eyes and glared at him, gritted her teeth and said angrily: "What do you think, Ah Qi must have been poisoned now, and she probably won't survive."
As he spoke, there was grief in his eyes, and he hugged her body tightly and murmured in a trembling voice, "Aqi, you must not die. If you die, what will the children and I do?"
Yan Qiqi rolled her eyes secretly. This guy was more suitable to act in a love story, and she was the heroine.
However, he still pretended to be weak, stretched out his hand tremblingly, and touched his handsome face, "Jue, if I die, you can become a monk with your children."
Yin Tianjue's hand holding her waist shook suddenly, and his face was covered with black lines.
Generally, before your lover dies, shouldn't he say something like this, "After I die, you will find a good woman and live a good life, and you must be happy."
Why did her side say, "You should become a monk", and she even brought the two little ones with her.
At this time, a picture appeared in his mind.
A handsome monk with a bare head, followed by a young monk and a young nun.
Well, this scene really makes me sweat.
In order to prevent this kind of thing from happening, she had better not die. It would be best if she could live a long life and live with him until old age.
Yan Qiqi put down her hand and said weakly: "Jue, I'm going to die, but I won't die in peace. I can't bear to let you and the children become a monk."
"Aqi, you can't die, you must not die." Yin Tianjue buried his head in her neck, his voice trembling, as if he was sobbing.
Actually, that's not the case. He can't pretend anymore. Can this girl stop being such a lively person? What she says makes people want to laugh.
Yan Qiqi sighed vaguely, "Oh, I don't want to die in such a muddle. Ming'er, can you tell Fourth Sister-in-law why you wanted to kill Fourth Sister-in-law? Did someone ask you to kill me?
"
Fortunately, Ming'er is only a child under six years old. If he were an adult, he would probably be a gangster by now.
A person who is almost dead can still say so many words in one breath, which shows that there must be something wrong.
Yin Tianming raised his eyes and glanced at her, seeing that she was so angry that she looked like she was about to die.
Suddenly, his little face was filled with grief, and he began to sob, "Fourth, fourth sister-in-law, why do you want to kill my mother-in-law, wuwu..."
"Should I kill your mother and concubine?" Yan Qiqi couldn't help but frown. She sat up straight and looked at Yin Tianming solemnly, "Ming'er, who said this? My fourth sister-in-law has such a good relationship with you, wouldn't you rather
If you believe others, don’t you want to believe Fourth Sister-in-law?”
Someone must have been talking nonsense in his ears to make him misunderstand her.
Yin Tianming raised his little hand to touch the tears on his face, and choked up: "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu."No, no, Ming'er didn't believe that the fourth sister-in-law would kill the mother-in-law at first, but, but..."
"But what?" Yan Qiqi took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears from his face.
Yin Tianming sniffed and said with a cry: "But Xiao Zhouzi said that he saw you and fourth brother going to the place where my mother and concubine lived. After you left, my mother and concubine died, wuwu..."
"So?" Yan Qiqi frowned slightly, with a hint of cruelty flashing in his eyes.
"Little Zhouzi said that you were the one who killed the concubine. He also said that he saw you kill the concubine with his own eyes and then hang her on the roof."
"So you think it was me who killed your mother-in-law." Yan Qiqi's eyes showed a look of regret, "Oh, it turns out that I am so insignificant in your heart, not as good as Xiao Zhou. It makes me so sad."
Yin Tianming touched his tears, pouted his lips and continued to cry: "Xiao Lizi and I also believed that you would not kill my mother and concubine at the beginning."
"Really? Then why do you still want to kill me?"
Yin Tianming pouted, "When you entered the palace, I asked you if there were any secrets between you and your mother-in-law. You didn't ask any questions at that time. Originally, Xiao Lizi didn't believe that you killed your mother-in-law.
After answering, I believed Xiao Zhouzi’s words and told me that you didn’t speak because you felt guilty.”
"Then you want to kill me to avenge your mother and concubine, right?" Yan Qiqi said quietly.
At this time, she no longer spoke in a weak tone, but a certain child was immersed in pain and did not notice anything unusual about her.
"Yes." Yin Tianming nodded, and then immediately opened his big eyes and said, "Sister-in-law Fourth, I don't want your life."
"You didn't want to kill me, so why did you stab me with a needle?"
As a killer, she would naturally be able to tell that the needle was smeared with poison. If it had been pierced into the flesh, she would have finished playing by now.
"Fourth sister-in-law, I didn't know that you would die if a needle pricked you. That person said..." Yin Tianming was about to explain. Suddenly, he realized that he had slipped his words and quickly covered his mouth with his little hand.
After hearing what he said, Yan Qiqi frowned slightly, and she guessed it right, someone was really causing trouble behind her back.
Before Yan Qiqi could ask anything, Yin Tianjue jumped in and said, "Ming'er, who is that person?"
"Fourth brother, I'm sorry, Ming'er promised him not to tell anyone else about this." Yin Tianming wrung his fingers in confusion and said with his little head drooped.
Fourth brother had taught him before that a man should keep his word, especially a man, so he couldn't say it.
Yin Tian Juehua's eyes flashed slightly, and he said angrily: "Ming'er, if we find that person, your fourth sister-in-law will most likely not die. Do you really want to see your fourth sister-in-law die?"
Originally, Yan Qiqi no longer pretended to be weak. As soon as she heard what he said, she immediately fell back into Yin Tianjue's arms and said, "Ming'er, you really don't want to save your fourth sister-in-law? Are you really that?"
I hate my fourth sister-in-law, my fourth sister-in-law..."
Yan Qiqi originally wanted to continue to say a few more words, but her mouth was covered by someone.
He lowered his head and rolled his eyes at her. Although Ming'er was young, he was not stupid. He would definitely become suspicious if he talked too much.
Yin Tianming immediately raised his head and stared into his big tear-filled eyes, his eyes shining with reluctance.
After thinking for a moment, he shook his head, "I don't want my fourth sister-in-law to die, wuwu..."
Even if he knew that she killed his mother-in-law, he didn't want her to die.
His mother-in-law and his fourth sister-in-law were his two favorite women. Now that his mother-in-law was gone, he didn't want his fourth sister-in-law to die as well.
Seeing him like this, Yin Tianjue couldn't bear it, raised his hand to touch his soft hair, and said in a soft voice: "Since I don't want your fourth sister-in-law to die, then tell your fourth brother who instigated you to do this.
It’s best to talk about all the conversations we had.”
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...Okay." Yin Tianming started to say while crying.
