The poetry meeting just ended yesterday, and Roujia was disfigured today. No matter how you say this, it has something to do with the people who attended the banquet.
Chu Qingwan didn't have time to think too much, so he quickly got out of bed to wash up, and ordered Wei Zhan to go to Baiweixuan to inform Lingting and ask her to give Mo Jingyu a massage, and then went to the princess mansion.
The sudden disfigurement of the princess was a big deal. The ladies who received the news rushed to the princess's house and crowded outside the princess's boudoir, feeling uneasy.
Chu Qingwan walked up and asked, "What's going on?"
Zhao Xinyu said: "It is said that the princess's face was extremely itchy last night and she fell asleep without taking care of it. When Clinker woke up this morning, his face was stinging. When he looked in the mirror, his whole face was ruined."
Chu Qingwan asked: "How was it destroyed?"
Zhao Xinyu shook his head and looked at her worriedly.
Chu Qingwan was puzzled: "Miss Zhao, why do you look at me like this?"
Zhao Xinyu was about to answer when the door of the room suddenly opened, and a palace maid said: "The princess said that she would like to thank all the ladies for taking the time to visit her. It is not convenient for her to see guests at this time. Please move to the flower hall. The princess will arrive later."
A group of people went to the flower hall noisily.
Two quarters of an hour later, her face covered with Roujia gauze and supported by the palace maid, she appeared in front of everyone.
Although her whole face could not be seen, several huge pustules on her forehead were exposed and disfigured, which was particularly terrifying.
Some people turned away and covered their mouths with handkerchiefs, as if they couldn't bear it.
Zhao Xinyu asked: "Princess, has anyone sent someone to visit the imperial doctor?"
Rou Jia was greatly shocked, and her voice was weak: "If the imperial doctor sees my face, my father, the emperor, and the empress will also know about it. I don't want to alarm them."
Someone in the crowd said: "The princess's filial piety is touching, but it's just a pain for the princess."
There were a few echoes in the hall, and someone said: "Doctor Chu, doesn't he have medical skills? Since the princess doesn't want to work in the palace, why not let her take a look."
Before Roujia expressed her position, Baoqin beside her said angrily: "How dare you? If Dr. Chu poisons our princess again, I'm afraid it won't be as simple as disfigurement."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.
Zhao Xinyu slapped the table and said in a cold voice: "Bold slave, do you know what you are talking about?!"
Bao Qin trembled with fright, but was not afraid, and said plausibly: "Our princess is usually fine, but Doctor Chu's face was disfigured yesterday after applying it on her face. Who else could it be if she hadn't poisoned her?"
At this point, Chu Qingwan finally figured it out.
Yesterday was indeed the Hongmen Banquet, but Roujia's trick was not a child's play like writing poetry, but the dilemma it was causing her now.
Many ladies have tried the powder applied on the face, and they found it safe, which proves that there is nothing wrong with the powder. The root cause of Roujia's disfigurement is her hands and feet during the application process.
The only person who had ever touched Rou Jia's face was Chu Qingwan.
This is really hard to argue with.
Bao Qin looked fierce and pointed at Sang and Huai: "Some people think that they can make a career by using some tricks to get to the prince's side. They don't hesitate to use such despicable tricks. It's really disgusting!"
After the words fell, the crowd was silent for a moment, and then exploded.
"So that's it. This person is too vicious."
"Appearance is so important to a woman, how could she do so?"
"It's so scary..."
They were still thinking hard and didn't understand why Qingwan poisoned the princess. As soon as Baoqin told them, they found the reason.
——King Qi and the princess fell in love with each other, but due to some reasons they could not get married. Chu Qingwan was now treating Mo Jingyu's leg and had other thoughts, so he wanted to destroy Roujia.
Reasonable.
If it weren't for the person involved, Chu Qingwan would almost believe it.
She lightly glanced at the few people who were talking harshly to her, stood up, walked to Roujia, and said calmly: "Princess, can you let me see your face?"
