"Miss, don't you want to use the cushion given by the Queen? If you change it in public, it will be bad if someone with ulterior motives gets the news to the Queen's ears!" Fu Hui advised in a small and earnest voice.

"I can't stand it any longer. There's something inside this cushion that's killing me. It hurts so much!"

Fu Hui immediately whispered, "Girl, please be patient. There are so many people here!"

Ning Xiaotang immediately reached out and picked up a peanut, and threw it towards one of Lan Yuehong's acupuncture points.

"Go get another mat!" Lan Yuehong finally couldn't stand it anymore and raised her voice.

She originally wanted to suppress her voice, and spoke in a low voice, but was flicked by a peanut and became louder.

Then everyone in the courtyard turned their heads to look.

Lan Yuehong immediately said awkwardly, "This is a cushion given by the Empress. I can't break it. Everyone, hurry up and have some tea!"

Qin Shiyu immediately understood Ning Xiaotang's intention to let her watch the show, and stepped forward and said with a smile: "Princess Lan, since this is a cushion gifted by the Queen, you should sit on it from the beginning to the end of the banquet.

To order someone to change it midway for no reason is a crime of great disrespect to the Empress!"

Lan Yuehong was so angry that her eyes twitched. She actually forgot about Qin Shiyu, the daughter of the censor, and her heart was on Ning Xiaotang's side.

"Then~ forget it!" Lan Yuehong immediately sat on the mat, gritting her teeth.

Ning Xiaotang was sitting there quietly at this time. Although she didn't eat or drink much, she was chatting with a few friends very enthusiastically.

Lan Yuehong only went to the toilet once during the trip. When she looked at her legs, she saw several deep scratches and several broken skin wounds on her knees.

"Ah, girl, why are you injured like this?" Fu Hui immediately asked in surprise.

"This Ning Xiaotang, she sat peacefully the whole morning, but I was so restless!"

Fu Hui immediately said, "Miss, could it be that one of your men placed the stone by mistake?"

Lan Yuehong immediately frowned, "I need to ask Jinshan about this."

"Miss, why don't you ask Jinshan to come out and ask him about it? You can also ask Jinshan to get the stone out."

"Jinshan! Come out!" Lan Yuehong immediately walked out of the room.

Jinshan immediately stood up in panic and asked, "What's the matter, young lady?"

"Didn't you notice there's something wrong with my cushion?"

"Miss, I'm guilty, but I did put it under Ning Xiaotang's cushion yesterday. I don't know why it's under your cushion today!"

Jinshan immediately knelt on one knee and bowed in response.

"Huh, if Ning Xiaotang had sneaked in last night, would you have known about it?"

"Of course not. I've been on duty at Lan Bo's Mansion and naturally won't let outsiders into the mansion."

When Lan Yuehong returned to her seat again, Fu Hui immediately and secretly replaced the cushion.

But when Fu Hui secretly took the cushion and prepared to leave, Ning Xiaotang said, "Fu Hui, you are so bold!"

Qin Shiyu also immediately exclaimed: "Isn't that the cushion that the Queen gave to Princess Lan?"

Yu Fang immediately stepped forward, snatched it away, and said, "Do you think you are worthy of taking it away?"

But when Yu Fang picked it up, she felt the cushion seemed heavier, and she was a little surprised. She saw that Lan Yuehong was not as favored by the Queen as she had imagined. There was something special about this cushion!

Lan Yuehong immediately smiled with gratitude and said, "Sister Yu, thank you for helping me get the cushion back. This Fu Hui is really troublesome. Go down and prepare some tea and bring it up. He has no sense at all!"

Fu Hui immediately bowed and said, "Yes, I was wrong. Thank you for not punishing me!"

Fu Hui immediately ran to prepare tea in a hurry.

Lan Yuehong was so angry that she knelt down on the problematic cushion. Her knees hurt so much that she almost exploded.

Fu Hui was carrying the scalding hot tea when he suddenly heard Qin Shixiang's sharp scream: "Ah! A group of ants!!"

Qin Shixiang immediately knocked Fu Hui away, and Fu Hui's water poured onto Qin Shixiang: "Ah! It's so hot!"

At this time, someone in the crowd said, "Qin Shixiang is really strange. She actually provoked so many ants."

Qin Shixiang's hands and body were covered with ants biting her, and her hands were also burned. She looked so miserable!

Lan Yuehong immediately stood up happily and said, "Fu Hui, quickly take Qin Shixiang down to take a bath!"

Qin Shiyu immediately smiled secretly and nodded at Ning Xiaotang, finally letting out his anger.

Thinking back to yesterday, Qin Shiyu was exposed to the cold winter wind in the ancestral hall and almost lost her life.

At this time, Ning Xiaotang's sweet voice rang out from the crowd: "This Lan Bo Mansion is really strange. How could it attract so many ants to hurt people?"

All the ladies nervously looked around them until they found nothing unusual. Then they patted their chests and said, "Fortunately, there's only an ant on Qin Shixiang's seat!"

Soon, Jinshan and others brought servants to replace Qin Shixiang's cushion and carefully arranged the original seat. Then the servants hurriedly retreated.

Qin Shiyu immediately said, "Princess Lan, although Shixiang is the second daughter of my Qin Mansion, she is also raised as a precious treasure. If she was injured by an ant, I'm afraid there must be an explanation, right?"

Lan Yuehong immediately took a deep breath and said softly, "Yes, I will send someone to investigate Qin Shixiang's matter thoroughly and give the Qin family a satisfactory explanation!"

But she was very distressed in her heart. Qin Shixiang didn't usually come to her parties. She finally came out today, but she encountered such a thing. She was really unlucky!

Qin Shixiang thought that she was already frightened too much by a group of ants at the banquet, but when she was taking a bath just now, something slippery swam across the tub. After all, she was only a three-year-old girl.

Out of curiosity, she reached out and grabbed it: "Ah! Ah!"

After two extremely tragic screams, Qin Shixiang was seen falling beside the bathtub.

The snake that started the movement slipped out of the window with its tongue sticking out.

At this time, Jinshan saw the snake and said, "Oh no! It's a snake!"

Jinshan was about to take out his sword and kill the snake with one strike. The snake was immediately broken into two parts, but its body continued to twist a few times before it died completely.

Later, Lan Yuehong and other noble ladies went in and saw Qin Shixiang wrapped in a small dress. She had been bitten by a snake and had passed out.

At this time, the court doctor immediately stepped forward to rescue her. Soon the court doctor gave Qin Shixiang a small pill to take, and then cut the poison on her little hand to drain the poisonous blood.

All the noble ladies were shocked by what they saw.

At this moment, Yu Fang immediately said with fear and trepidation, "Has the Lan Bo Mansion provoked some powerful figure? Why are there so many problems?"

Lan Yuehong immediately turned her gaze towards Ning Xiaotang.
