Mu Yun'an narrowed her eyes and gradually calmed down. She squeezed Xin Ruyi's hand and asked, "Mom, who did you offend in the palace?"
Xin Ruyi thought of someone coming, and she said with some uncertainty: "Eldest Princess, she likes your father. Last time the Queen was in trouble, I also helped the eldest princess to vent her anger."
When Mu Yun'an heard the name of the eldest princess, she suddenly realized that no wonder Xiao Chengyi had to deal with the eldest princess like that in his previous life. It turned out that she was the one who harmed Xin Ruyi!
She clenched her teeth, suppressed the rising anger in her heart and said to Xin Ruyi: "Let's leave here first."
Otherwise, when Yuan Hao reacts, none of them will be able to escape.
Mu Yun'an tidied up Xin Ruyi's messed up hair and clothes, and helped her leave. It would be hard to explain if they just left like this before the party was over.
But if she continued to stay, she was afraid of something unexpected happening.
At this moment, Mu Yun'an missed Xiao Chengyi very much, and almost uncontrollably, she started to shake the concentric bell on her wrist.
But she was afraid that sending a dangerous signal would worry Xiao Chengyi, so she shook it gently and told him that she missed him!
Just when Mu Yun'an was hesitant about whether to leave or stay, a palace maid came over and said: "County Master, why are you here? The Queen saw that you had been away from the table for too long and sent a slave to come out and take a look."
Mu Yun'an saw that the palace maid looked familiar, but she seemed to be at the Queen's side. She pretended to be unwell and said: "I have a bad stomach. There was a palace maid named Caihe who said she was going to report to the Queen.
I waited for a long time but she didn't come back. Fortunately, my mother found me and treated me, which saved me some time.
By the way, where is the palace maid named Caihe? She said she is someone close to the Queen, why didn’t she tell the Queen about my situation?"
The palace maid looked confused and said: "There is no one named Caihe next to the empress. I remember that there was a palace maid named Caihe next to the eldest princess. The county master remembered the wrong person."
"Yeah?"
Mu Yun'an raised his eyebrows, smiled and said, "Maybe I remembered it wrong. Let's go, don't keep the Queen waiting."
The palace maid bowed her knees and responded, then led the way. Mu Yun'an took the opportunity to lean into Xin Ruyi's ear and said: "Mom, when we get to the banquet later, you have to pretend that nothing happened, and I was raped in my tea."
If you don’t have croton powder, you can’t just let it go!”
Xin Ruyi understood what she meant, she nodded, took a deep breath to calm down, and then walked towards Qingyue Palace.
As soon as the two appeared, they immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the palace. Although some people left the banquet, most of them went to change clothes and came back soon.
Only Mu Yun'an and Xin Ruyi showed up after going for a long time.
When Queen Han saw Mu Yunan being helped in by Xin Ruyi, she quickly asked: "What's wrong with the county master? Why did he come back after being away for so long?"
Mu Yun'an knelt down and apologized: "I've made you worry, I may have had some stomach discomfort due to bad food. Fortunately, my mother gave me an injection, and I feel much better now."
Queen Han was shocked and said: "Why didn't you inform me about such a big thing? Come here, sit down, have a rest and have a sip of tea."
As soon as she finished speaking, Concubine Yan said: "I think it's better to ask an imperial doctor to take a look. We had such a nice banquet with the same dishes and there was nothing wrong with us, so why did the county chief get so hungry?
Don’t you think so, sister?”
Queen Han looked stunned and glanced coldly at Concubine Yan.
