Chapter 250 There is Danger

"Mei...Aunt Meixiang..."

Mei Xiang looked at her coldly: "Qiao Yan, you are so brave that you dare to climb onto the bed of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Qiaoyan was so frightened that her heart and liver were about to burst. She crawled on the ground and retorted: "Aunt, I didn't do that. I just saw that Your Highness was very drunk, so I had the courage to help Your Highness down to the side hall to rest. I didn't have any bad intentions at all!"

Meixiang narrowed her eyes and kicked her on the shoulder, knocking her sideways.

Her tone was sharp: "Bitch! You have already burned this kind of cheap fragrance in the house, and you still dare to say that you have no evil intentions!"

Qiaoyan shuddered, and forgot all about it. She knelt down again in a panic and kowtowed: "Aunt, please spare me, I really didn't do that. This incense... this incense... was ordered by Prince Rong to light it! It was him! It was him who wanted Princess Xiya to climb into the bed of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I was also threatened by Prince Rong's mansion!"

"Aunt, please be careful. Prince Rong threatened my family. I had no choice but to obey him. Please spare my life, please spare my life..."

When he heard the first half of the sentence, Murong Heli had already opened his eyes.

Mei Xiang bowed respectfully: "Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Qiaoyan's plea for mercy was stuck in her throat and she paused in her kowtow.

Her body was shaking like a sieve and she crawled on the ground, not daring to move.

Murong Heli's face turned slightly red, and she crossed her long legs and walked out of the room.

"Tell me, besides this, what else did the people in Prince Rong's mansion ask you to do? Tell the truth and I will give you an intact corpse. If you lie... I will kill all your clans!"

Qiaoyan's body completely lost all strength in an instant...

The other side.

Ruoyin did not return to the East Palace immediately, but turned to the imperial kitchen.

Lin Xu left the corpse to Ye San to deal with, and returned to the window of the East Palace's bedroom with Qi Yue, who looked pale.

Ye Qi opened the window and stepped back, waiting for the two to enter the palace before he respectfully said, "Dark Lord, Princess, Murong Heli has not returned yet, and the maid guarding the outer room has not returned either."

Ye Qi put on his coat and quickly left the bedroom.

Lin Xu helped her sit back on the bed. Qi Yue took a deep breath and said, "You go first. Look at the time. They will be back soon."

He frowned, looked at her pale little face, suddenly remembered something, reached into his arms and took out a package of oil paper.

After opening it, she found her favorite sour dates inside.

He picked up one and put it to her lips: "Here, eat one slowly."

Qi Yue opened her lips and bit them, but before she could savor the taste, Ruoyin's voice came from the entrance of the palace.

“Go!”

Lin Xu nodded, stuffed the remaining sour dates under the pillow, helped her lie back on the bed, covered her with the quilt, and then quickly climbed out the window and left.

With a "click", Ruoyin walked into the hall carrying a bowl of pregnancy-preserving medicine.

The little maid following behind her quickly stepped forward to help her lift the curtain.

Walking into the inner room, she carefully placed the pregnancy-preserving medicine on the table.

Then he walked to the bedside and called softly, "Princess, it's time to get up and take the pregnancy-maintaining medicine."

The woman on the bed was still sleeping without a sound.

Ruoyin took another half step forward and was about to reach out to push her little shoulder.

The next second Qi Yue suddenly opened his eyes and met her eyes.

A pair of beautiful eyes with a cold look firmly fixed on the slightly guilty expression on her face.

Ruo Yin's heart trembled, and she couldn't help swallowing her saliva. She gritted her teeth and said, "Your Highness... Princess, if you don't get up, the medicine will get cold..."

Qi Yue raised his hand and pressed his eyelids, withdrawing the coldness in his eyes.

Ruoyin noticed with her sharp eyes that the clothes she was wearing were not the white undergarments she had worn before.

Suspiciously, "Didn't the servants change your clothes before the princess went to bed? When did you put your outer robe back on?"

Qi Yue paused, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and he glanced at her with the corner of his eyes raised.

Instead of answering, he asked, "Country girl, has anyone ever reminded you that if you disturb my good sleep, you will be beaten to death."

She said these chilling words with a smile.

Ruoyin and the little maid behind her were so frightened that their legs went limp and they knelt on the ground together.

"Princess, please spare my life... I am just following orders. The Crown Prince ordered me to make this pregnancy-preserving medicine for you. If you forget to drink it or if I don't remind you in time... I will die..."

The little maidservant: "Princess, please spare me, Princess, please spare me..."

Qi Yue chuckled, "I was just teasing you, get up now."

Now, Ruoyin didn't dare to talk about the clothes anymore, and slowly stood up on her trembling legs.

"Princess, let us help you get up and drink the medicine."

"Bring the medicine."

…

As soon as Murong Xiya and Murong Xiyu separated, she was knocked unconscious by Yue Xing, who had been staring at Ruoyin.

After tying the man up and throwing him back into the rockery, Yue Xing quickly caught up with Murong Xiyu. Seeing that he was not heading towards the East Palace, he returned to the rockery with peace of mind.

He carried Murong Xiya on his shoulders and quickly rushed towards the palace banquet.

Murong Xiyu deliberately walked in the opposite direction for half a cup of tea before turning back and rushing towards the East Palace.

As soon as Murong Heli walked out of the side hall, he ran into Yue Xing who was carrying people.

"Your Highness, the East Palace maid Ruoyin has met with Murong Xiya in private."

"Did you hear what they were planning?"

Yue Xing shook his head. "I didn't dare to get too close. Murong Xiyu was there at the time, so I didn't hear the details clearly. I only vaguely heard words like woman and military power."

"They also mentioned you, Your Highness."

Murong Heli frowned: "Where is Murong Xiyu?"

The interrogation of Qiao Yan just now did not yield any more useful information.

Therefore, he could not think of the conspiracy between Murong Xiya and Murong Xiyu for a while.

"Your Highness, Murong Xiyu went to the direction of Yunxi Palace, which is the opposite direction of the East Palace."

Hearing his words, Murong He's brows relaxed a little.

But the next second, he tightened it again.

"Oh no, Yue'er is in danger!"

Yue Xing was shocked: "What! Your Highness, it can't be... The Eastern Palace is heavily guarded, how could the princess be in danger?"

"Idiot!" Murong Heli glared at him fiercely. "Prince Rong wanted to send Murong Xiya to my bed. Since Murong Xiya was able to bribe the maids in the East Palace, she must be aiming for the position of Crown Princess."

"I publicly acknowledged Yue'er's identity as soon as I came back today, so they will definitely take action against Yue'er!"

"I was told to stay in the East Palace to protect Yue'er, but you took the initiative to follow someone else?"

The color on Yue Xing's face faded away, "I know I was wrong..."

Murong Heli looked at the woman on his shoulder with dangerous eyes, "Follow Meixiang and throw this woman to the room I just stayed in. Let her enjoy the good things that Prince Rong has arranged."

Mei Xiang's eyes flashed, and she lowered her head and said, "I obey your order."

…

The East Palace bedroom.

Suddenly there was a "pop" sound in the hall, and the porcelain bowl fell to the ground and shattered, spilling a bowl of pitch-black medicine all over the floor. There was still a trace of the black medicine juice on the corner of Qi Yue's lips.
