Chunfeng lowered his head and replied in a low voice: "Yes, this slave is talking nonsense. I am wrong. I hope your Majesty will be merciful."
Mu Ci's eyes suddenly became sharp: "You can't slander the reputation of the Ai family with just a few words. The Ai family will ask you again, but someone instigated you to say this?"
Her gaze was fixed on the top of Chunfeng's head, and she didn't look at anyone else.
Qing Le was frightened after hearing this. She looked at Mu Ci and saw that Mu Ci was staring at the spring breeze.
Is it her illusion? Could it be that Mu Ci already knew that she was instigating Chunfeng behind his back?
impossible!
She poisoned Nian'er before sending her to Yong'an Palace. Mu Ci must have seen through her intention, right? How could Mu Ci have foreseen this?
Only she and Chunfeng knew about this, and it was impossible for Chunfeng to betray her.
"Of course not. It's because I'm too worried about Your Highness, so I'm so arrogant. I know that the Queen Mother is generous and kind, so please forgive me for what I just said without thinking." Chunfeng thought to herself, and she put a high hat on Mu Ci.
The emperor is here again, so Mu Ci can't punish her anymore.
"The Ai family is indeed generous and kind, but there are harem rules in the harem, and the rules cannot be broken." Mu Ci said, suddenly looking at Dugu Liancheng: "The people under the Ai family are not very serious, why not use the emperor's people?"
Dugu Liancheng took a deep look at her and then looked at Biyu.
Biyu understood, went to Chunfeng, and slapped Chunfeng twenty times, until Chunfeng lost two of his teeth and his mouth was filled with blood before he stopped.
Chunfeng dared not speak out when he was angry, so he silently received these twenty slaps.
Qing Le, who was watching from the sidelines, had mixed emotions.
The person who slapped Chunfeng was Biyu, and she was Chunfeng's master. Biyu and she used to serve together in front of the emperor.
Mu Ci clearly borrowed Biyu's hand to slap her.
The most ironic thing is that Biyu was a slave, and now she is the master. The slave can also slap the master in the face.
Did Mu Ci want to tell her that even if she became the master, she would still be as miserable as a slave?
"Look, a beauty as beautiful as a flower was beaten like this. It's so unbearable to look at." Mu Ci said and looked at Qing Le, "Le Jieyu must discipline her slaves well in the future and don't be careless.
She ran out and barked wildly. Today is the mercy of the Ai family. If she knocks out two of her teeth, or if she encounters another cruel master, she may lose her head."
"Your Majesty taught me a lesson, I can spare it." Qing Le lowered his stance.
At this time, she couldn't help but protect the spring breeze, and she understood it.
"This is just a trivial matter. The fact that Ai Jia and Nian'er were both poisoned must be investigated thoroughly. Last time Ai Jia was poisoned, the real culprit was not found. Today it happened again. The murderer even attacked such a young Nian'er.
"If this murderer is not found, he will be cut to pieces. I'm sorry for what happened to Nian'er today." Mu Ci straightened his expression and started talking about business.
"The Queen Mother is right, we really need to investigate thoroughly." Dugu Liancheng looked at the imperial doctor: "Can you find out when you were poisoned?"
The imperial doctor stepped forward and replied: "This is chronic toxicity, and the onset time may be long or short. I only know that the person who poisoned the poison did not use heavy medicine, so the onset of toxicity should be longer."
Qing Le lowered his head, his eyes flashed slightly, and he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
The next moment, I heard Mu Ci say: "Is there a possibility that Nian'er might have been poisoned before entering Yong'an Palace?"
The imperial doctor was stunned for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "It is possible."
Mu Ci and Dugu Liancheng looked at each other, and both of them looked at Qing Le at the same time.
"Qing Le, but what kind of enemy did you make? The enemy came after you, so they attacked Nian'er." Dugu Liancheng looked at Qing Le and asked.
Qing Le lowered his head: "I don't know either."
"The Aijia feels that they are not Le Jieyu's enemies, otherwise there would be no need for them to poison the Aijia. Le Jieyu usually doesn't go out of the front door or the second door, so where can she make enemies? But the Aijia has many enemies. The Aijia has many enemies.
I was thinking that there must be someone who wanted to attack the Ai family, but dragged Nian'er into the water. This person's evil thoughts are outrageous!"
Dugu Liancheng felt that Mu Ci's words made sense. In addition, Mu Ci was poisoned last time, and then someone poisoned him again. It was obvious that that person hated Mu Ci very much, and he also had some abilities.
"You really need to investigate carefully." Dugu Liancheng said to Mu Ci: "This murderer has targeted you again and again. You have to think of ways to find the murderer."
Mu Ci smiled and accepted Dugu Liancheng's words.
After that, they talked about some insignificant things, and then Mu Ci seemed to remember Chunfeng who was still kneeling on the ground, and turned his eyes to Chunfeng: "But who is gossiping about you, claiming that the Ai family poisoned Nian'er?"
Chunfeng's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and she resisted the pain and replied: "I was confused for a moment, so I spoke indiscriminately. No one made irresponsible remarks to me."
"The Ai family just asked casually, why are you nervous? People who don't know better would think that your master deliberately used you as a gunman in order to take Nian'er away." Mu Ci said with a smile.
When Qing Le heard this, she quickly raised her head, and this time she met Mu Ci's clear and beautiful eyes.
Her throat was dry and she felt as if Mu Ci was choking her throat, which was why she couldn't breathe smoothly.
"How is that possible?!" Chunfeng reacted fiercely, and the volume suddenly increased.
Her strange reaction was noticed by everyone else, let alone Dugu Liancheng?
He half-squinted his eyes and looked at Chunfeng. Chunfeng received the gaze from him and sweat broke out on his forehead.
She hurriedly lowered her head and said in a hoarse voice: "The Queen Mother has spoken harshly. This slave cannot bear such an unfounded charge, and the master cannot bear such an accusation."
She was afraid that the emperor would listen to Mu Ci's greedy words and become suspicious of his master.
"Why are you nervous? The Aijia just said it casually. Your reaction is so fierce, it will make the Aijia think that you have understood the intentions of your master and servant." Mu Ci touched his face, and his eyes seemed to sweep over Qing Qing.
Le's face: "What is being ruined now is Ai Jia's face and Nian'er's body. No matter who gets into trouble with Ai Jia or Nian'er, those involved in the case must not take it lightly."
The spring breeze was so painful that she couldn't express it. Only at this moment did she truly realize Mu Ci's cunning.
In the past, the master took the initiative, but now he is being exposed by Mu Ci everywhere. This phenomenon is unusual.
In the end, Qing Le knelt on the ground and kept low: "Chunfeng can't speak. I hope the Queen Mother won't blame you. I will teach Fei Yuxuan's slaves well in the future to avoid making today's joke again."
"Today is for Nian'er's sake, and in order to bring blessings to Nian'er, the Ai family is being punished lightly. Chunfeng, it's not every time you have such good luck, so you can take care of yourself, so please step aside." Mu Ci.
After saying that, he got up and went to the couch to pick up the sleeping eldest prince.
