Chapter 407: Use a trick to expose the scheming bitch, and don't let anyone who dares to hurt the baby go



The more the nurses thought something was wrong with you, the more they left the room and told His Highness.

At this time, in the study, "The wet nurses took the young masters to play only in the garden today and did not go anywhere else. There were many maids and servants coming and going. After investigation, someone saw Concubine Xue's maid Shui Yao approaching the young masters that day." Qin Xiao respectfully reported the results of a whole day's investigation.

When Xiao Jinyan heard Concubine Xue frown, he knew what Concubine Xue was thinking. It was very likely that she sent someone to poison Tao Su.

But it is not easy to put the poisonous insect on Tao Su in public.

"Go and have a look at Concubine Xue."

Qin Xiao lowered his eyebrows and nodded: "As you wish."

Just as Xiao Jinyan stood up and left, Wei Chi came in and reported, "Master, the nurses want to see you."

Xiao Jinyan paused, then sat down again and ordered, "Let them in."

Not long after Wei Chi left, he led the nurses in. After what happened today, the nurses were also frightened and walked in cautiously.

"Your Highness, I remember that Concubine Xue's maidservant came to tease the young masters today."

"Your Highness, there were other people passing by during this time, but Shuiyao sent flowers to make the young masters happy. I always felt that something was wrong."

The two wet nurses spoke in a low voice.

Xiao Jinyan now guessed that Shui Yao might have used the greasy head who sent flowers to send the poisonous insect to Tao Su, and even the wet nurse and Xiao Jiu were infected with the poisonous insect.

An unprecedented anger rose in his eyes. He stood up, walked around the desk, and strode out.

Wei Chi and Qin Xiao looked at each other and quickly followed.

The wet nurses were frightened by Xiao Jinyan's cold and stern aura and were unable to react for a long time.

It was already time to light the lamps . Xiao Jinyan came to the Qimeng Palace with anger.

When Concubine Xue heard the maid report that Xiao Jinyan had arrived, she was extremely happy.

"Your Highness has finally come to Qimeng Palace. Shuiyao, can you take a look at my makeup to see if it's smudged?"

Shui Yao smiled and praised: "The princess is a natural beauty. Even with a little makeup on, she is unmatched. Your Highness will definitely stay at the Dream Palace tonight."

After hearing this, Concubine Xue felt even happier. She tidied up her appearance a little and came out to greet him, bowing to Xiao Jinyan.

"May your highness be blessed with good health."

Xiao Jinyan glanced coldly at Concubine Xue in front of him and Shui Yao behind her, suppressing the anger in his heart and not attacking them immediately.

"Everyone, get up."

Concubine Xue stood up straight and looked at Xiao Jinyan with a smile, "Thank you, Your Highness. It's time for dinner now. How about we have dinner together?"

Xiao Jinyan felt disgusted when he took one look at her beautiful face. He looked away and said "hmm".

Concubine Xue happily ordered Shui Yao, "Go and serve the meal."

Shui Yao went to the small kitchen with a smile and brought the prepared wine to the dining table.

Concubine Xue is a princess of a country. Although she has a set share of food, the food she eats and uses is better than that of others and is no worse than that of the Crown Princess.

Concubine Xue picked up the wine jug and filled the jug in front of Xiao Jinyan with wine.

Xiao Jinyan looked at Concubine Xue's actions indifferently but did not stop her.

Concubine Xue introduced shyly, "Your Highness, this wine is brought by me from Xueyue. In Xueyue Country, only couples can drink this wine together. I have been keeping it to drink with Your Highness."

Xiao Jinyan heard this and warned coldly: "My wife is the Crown Princess, Concubine Xue should always remember your current status and don't cross the line."

Concubine Xue was stunned for a moment, her hands on her knees tightly grasping her sleeves, complaining in her heart that she was just doing it for fun, was it necessary to take it seriously? It was still uncertain who would be the queen in the future.

After complaining in her heart, she humbly admitted her fault on the surface: "It is because I am outspoken, Your Highness, please don't be angry, I have kept it in mind.

Xiao Jinyan listened to Concubine Xue's extravagant thoughts, and a hint of sarcasm appeared on the corner of his lips. "You are really ambitious. Queen? Are you worthy of it?" Concubine Xue looked at the food in front of her. She couldn't let down this great opportunity to sleep with her.

She picked up the chopsticks, not knowing what dishes Xiao Jinyan liked, so she picked a common cedar fish and put it in Xiao Jinyan's bowl.

"Your Highness, I have eaten this fish several times. It tastes very delicious. Please try it."

Xiao Jinyan glanced at the fish in front of him. How could he be in the mood to eat at this moment? Not to mention that the woman who made him feel disgusted was sitting opposite him.

He raised his eyes to look at the maid Shuiyao behind Concubine Xue, and said to Concubine Xue, "I heard from the nurse that the maid Shuiyao beside you likes my baby very much?"

Concubine Xue was shocked when she heard this. Could it be that Xiao Jinyan suspected her?

Shui Yao stepped forward with a guilty conscience and knelt on the ground, "Your Highness, I just thought the babies were cute and didn't forget my status, so I didn't hold the little masters."

Xiao Jinyan looked at Shui Yao's guilty behavior coldly, "I didn't blame you, what are you afraid of? I also want to praise you. The flowers I sent you, the babies like them very much."

Shui Yao breathed a sigh of relief, "As long as the young masters like it, that's good. I'm not doing this to make the young masters happy."

While Concubine Xue was relieved, she was also unwilling. She had clearly asked Shui Yao to release the poisonous insects, and the poisonous insects liked the smell of milk the most. The baby and the Crown Princess had the smell of milk on them, and they were the most obvious targets of attack.

"Before I came here, I saw the babies playing with the flowers. The two little guys didn't know how to protect the flowers at all, and they were torn into pieces. Let Shuiyao pick two more fresh flowers and send them to the Hehuan Palace tomorrow."

Shui Yao nodded and said, "I obey your command."

Qin Xiao stepped in and reported, "Master, Lord Lu wants to see you for something."

Xiao Jinyan nodded, "Got it, I'll go right away."

Concubine Xue had finally waited for Xiao Jinyan to come. She had originally wanted to have dinner with him and then stay overnight to sleep with him. How could she bear to let go of such a good opportunity?

"Your Highness, you haven't had your meal yet. Can you eat first before leaving?"

Xiao Jinyan said calmly: "Dinner can be eaten at any time. Business matters cannot be delayed. You eat first and I will leave."

When Concubine Xue saw Xiao Jinyan stand up and leave, she also stood up and chased after him, "Your Highness, doesn't Lord Lu know that it's dinner time now? Is there anything that can't be dealt with tomorrow?"

Xiao Jinyan said coldly: "Of course it's business. Concubine Xue is a princess of a country, how come you can't even tell the priorities?"

Concubine Xue was speechless for a moment. She said aggrievedly, "I just don't want Your Highness to leave. I didn't say it's not important."

Xiao Jinyan said coldly: "It's good to know. You should learn more from the Crown Princess. The Crown Princess is considerate, well-educated, and knows the limits and priorities."

After saying that, he turned away.

Concubine Xue stood there, watching Xiao Jinyan leave with a feeling of resentment in her heart, "How dare you compare me with Shen Chuwei? Who is Shen Chuwei? How can she be compared with this princess?"

Shui Yao was also very upset and did not forget to comfort her: "Princess, calm down, don't get angry and hurt yourself."

Concubine Xue was very angry at the moment, so how could she listen to any words of comfort?

"When you go to deliver flowers tomorrow, give a few more to the Crown Princess, and put some poisonous insects. I don't believe they are lucky enough to escape once and can escape twice. When they die, the Crown Princess will be mine."

Shui Yao nodded and agreed, "I understand. I will send her to Hehuan Palace tomorrow morning."

After leaving the Qimeng Palace, Xiao Jinyan's face was gloomy. He looked back at the Qimeng Palace and felt sick if he looked at it for one more moment.

After calming down his anger, Xiao Jinyan returned to the Hehuan Palace and had dinner with Shen Chuwei.

In fact, the moment Xiao Jinyan stepped into the Qimeng Palace, he had not thought about having dinner with Concubine Xue.

Qin Xiao said that Lord Lu wanted to see him for something, but it was just an excuse to leave, leaving Concubine Xue speechless.

After dinner, Xiao Jinyan looked at Tao Su, who had just taken a bath and was playing in the crib, as if what happened today had never happened.

Xiao Jinyan waited for Shen Chuwei to come out of the shower and checked the wound on her arm. Although it was a minor injury, he still felt relieved after checking it.

"I just went to the Dream Palace."

Shen Chuwei paused after hearing this and asked in confusion: "What are you doing in Qimeng Palace?"

"I have already found out that Concubine Xue asked her personal maid to release those poisonous insects." Xiao Jinyan recounted what happened.

Shen Chuwei hadn't seen Concubine Xue for a long time. When she heard that it was her who did it, she immediately became angry.

"It turned out to be Concubine Xue. She is so evil. Taosu is so cute, how could she have the heart to harm her? No, if she dares to hurt my baby, I will not let her off easily."

Xiao Jinyan hugged her into his arms, a murderous coldness flashed across his eyes, "I will not let her go either, but she is the princess of Xueyue, and I must have solid evidence to convict her."

"I know, but she must also taste the pain. Tao Su cried so miserably today because it was in so much pain, she must taste it." Shen Chuwei felt so distressed when she thought of her baby crying heart-wrenchingly. She was a salted fish, but she was not someone who could be easily bullied.

Xiao Jinyan nodded, "Yeah."

The next morning, Shui Yao went to the backyard of Qimeng Palace to collect fresh flowers. These flowers were seeds brought from Xueyue Kingdom, which were not available in Daxia.

After picking them, she held the flowers and sprinkled some water on them.

When they were almost at the Hehuan Palace, they secretly placed the poisonous insects into the petals so that no one would notice.

Shen Chuwei was playing with Taosu in the room when Chunxi came in to report, "Master, Shuiyao from Qimeng Palace has brought flowers."

Shen Chuwei said calmly: "Let her in."

"Yes." After Chunxi went out, he brought Shuiyao in after a while.

Shui Yao took a few steps forward with the flowers in her hands and saluted, saying with a smile, "Crown Princess, His Highness asked me to collect some fresh flowers yesterday for the young masters to play with."
