Chapter 2 Princess Chen 2
However, if she were to inform Prince Chen of Prime Minister Luo's plot to rebel, the Emperor would surely execute the entire Prime Minister's family, and her fate would be no better. Even if she survived, she would never become Prince Chen's consort.
However, she didn't want to let Prime Minister Luo off so easily.
She wanted to become the Princess Consort of Chen, but she also wanted to get rid of Prime Minister Luo.
Moreover, did Prince Chen really not know what Prime Minister Luo had done? She was a little skeptical.
Prince Chen's intelligence far surpasses that of the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince probably believes that Prime Minister Luo's actions are for his own grand ambition, and naturally wouldn't suspect anything.
Luo Xi rested her chin on her hand and thought for a long time.
Fifteen minutes later, Luo Xi placed the ledger on the table into Zhu Zhu's hands, then stood up and said, "Put this ledger away. I'm going to the front yard."
"Yes, Your Highness."
forecourt.
At the entrance to the study.
When Ling Feng and Ling Yu saw Luo Xi, they bowed respectfully and said, "Your Highness."
Luo Xi nodded, glanced in the direction of the study, and asked gently, "Is the Prince inside? I need to speak with him."
Ling Feng: "Your Highness, the Prince is here."
The next moment, he strode in and reported.
Not long after,
Ling Feng came out and said, "Your Highness, the Prince wants you to come in."
Upon hearing this, Luo Xi stepped inside.
As soon as she entered, she saw Qi Chen, with his sharp features and handsome appearance, standing by the desk. She walked up to him, bowed, and said, "This concubine greets Your Highness."
Qi Chen looked at Luo Xi, who was dressed in a light blue dress and had a stunningly beautiful face, his eyes flashed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "Get up."
He looked into her eyes and asked, "What brings you here, Your Highness?"
Qi Chen naturally knew why she had come to find him.
This is the Prince Chen's residence, so there's nothing he wouldn't know.
He knew that Prime Minister Luo had secretly sent her a note, and he also knew that Xiao Ju, who was by her side, was Prime Minister Luo's henchman.
Luo Xi pursed her lips, walked to Qi Chen's side, and said softly, "Your Highness, it has been a long time since I have dined with you. May I come to the main courtyard tonight?"
Looking at her expectant eyes and her jade-like face, Qi Chen thought for a moment and then said, "Okay, I'll come over tonight."
Having achieved her goal, Luo Xi left the front yard.
She was certain; Prince Chen did indeed know.
She walked and thought:
She must have someone with him by her side; she can't act rashly.
However, Xiaoju is indeed a problem.
night.
Main courtyard.
After Luo Xi and Qi Chen finished their dinner.
Luo Xi then had Xiao Ju serve each of them a cup of tea. Afterward, she dismissed the others.
Qi Chen glanced at the cup of tea and asked, "Is Your Highness sure you want me to drink this?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Xi nervously clenched her fists.
"Your Highness, what... what's wrong with this tea?"
Wasn't this tea switched by his people?
Qi Chen: "It's nothing."
After saying that, he picked up his teacup and took two sips.
Luo Xi followed suit and took a sip.
Qi Chen's eyes flashed when he saw that she had also drunk it.
Didn't she know that her maid had poisoned the tea? If he hadn't had it replaced...
At first, he thought she intended for him to drink first, and then pretend she hadn't had time to drink after he was poisoned, thus escaping the poison.
Surprisingly, it wasn't.
It seems she didn't know the tea was poisoned.
So, it turns out that Prime Minister Luo wanted to sacrifice her.
Even tigers don't eat their cubs.
The next second, Qi Chen collapsed onto the table.
Luo Xi was startled!
She quickly stood up, shook his hand, and called his name several times, but he didn't respond.
Then she let Xiaoju, who was guarding outside the door, in.
Xiaoju was also surprised to see that Luoxi was unharmed.
However, she assumed that Luo Xi hadn't drunk the tea.
It doesn't matter. As long as Prince Chen is dead, killing Luo Xi will be a piece of cake for her.
Luo Xi asked sternly, "Didn't you give the prince an aphrodisiac? Why is his reaction so strange?"
