At the banquet, Prince Chen and his wife left first. Master Gu felt more relaxed and spoke more boldly, pouring wine with the young marquis non-stop.

Ling Qianyi was so happy that he accidentally drank too much and was a little drunk. He was helped by the servant to the side to rest.

Suddenly, Yunying was the only one left at the table.

Master Gu and Gu Qingqing looked at each other, and the two of them exchanged some information with their eyes...

Outside.

Qin Ye helped Yue'er to a quiet and open place, where he sat down to rest for a while. He took her pulse and found it was still normal.

"Does it still hurt?" she asked.

Yue Er bent over, holding her belly, her eyes were red, tears were in the corners of her eyes, and she bit her lower lip tightly:

"Um……"

The way she choked up didn't seem fake.

Qin Ye frowned, thought for two seconds, and said: "Yue'er, sit here for a while, I'll go to the kitchen to get some pot ash and bring you some water to take it."

This is a folk remedy.

The bottom of the pot is where fire is burned every day, and it is always hot. The ash on the bottom of the pot is a very yang thing that can drive away evil spirits. People often use it to treat abdominal pain, insomnia, frighten children, and ward off evil spirits for infants and young children.

"I'll go with you." Zong Zhengchen followed her closely, not letting her out of his sight.

"You stay here with Yue'er, in case she's not feeling well."

"You are alone and at Gu's house, so I can rest assured?"

Yue Er held her belly, and said with guilt and pain: "My Lord, Princess, it is my fault for delaying tonight's banquet. I can bear it..."

"Just sit here and don't walk around. The prince and I will be back soon."

Qin Ye and Zong Zhengchen went to the kitchen together.

When the two of them disappeared around the bend, the pain on Yue'er's face also disappeared. She straightened her back and looked hesitantly in the direction of the banquet...

Yunying, please don't blame me. You are not from the imperial capital. You shouldn't come to the imperial capital, and you shouldn't appear next to the princess.

If you die, everything will return to normal.

I am the princess' only maid. The princess loves me and will marry me to Master Jing.

The young marquis and Miss Gu are a perfect match.

Go to hell...

Yue'er bit her lower lip lightly and slowly clenched her hands. A sense of nervousness rose in her heart, and she was looking forward to what was to come next nervously and eagerly.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds...

She was waiting for the explosion.

After a while...

There was no explosion, and the princess did not come back. Instead, she saw Zhang Fei running towards the banquet with an anxious look on his face.

Yue Er stood up subconsciously, "Uncle Zhang!"

Zhang Fei turned his head, a little surprised: "Yue'er girl? Aren't you at the banquet? Why are you here?"

But after saying that, he didn't bother to ask any more questions, and rushed forward to grab Yue'er's wrist.

"Where's the princess? Where is the princess?"

"When I was inspecting the Gu family just now, I found two suspicious figures hiding in the dark, sneaking around. The Gu family is trying to do something secretly. I'm worried about the princess' safety!"

Yue'er was shocked.

Zhang Fei actually discovered the clue?

She hurriedly said, "The prince and princess have gone to the kitchen. They are not at the banquet."

"What about Yunying girl and the young marquis?"

"Yun Ying..."

Yue'er opened her mouth and the sound stopped.

Zhang Fei understood what she meant and walked away, "I have to go inform them."

"Zhang Fei!"

Yue'er's heart tightened and she quickly grabbed him.

If Zhang Fei went to report the news, wouldn't all her previous efforts be in vain?

At the critical moment, a bad idea flashed through his mind and he lied, "You said you saw two suspicious figures. I saw them just now. Those two people went...that way!"
