Fuling was caught off guard and was hit by the medicine powder. His whole face swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in a moment it turned into a pig's head.

She rolled on the ground in pain, the plates and buckets at her disposal fell to the ground, but only a few hoarse moans came out of her throat.

The man in black was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his back. It took him a moment to react.

He grabbed Fuling by the back of her neck and dragged her into the house: "Zhao Zhao! Your maid has been poisoned!"

Hua Yuanzhao heard the noise and ran over, holding a lantern in one hand and a medicine bag in the other. He was furious when he saw what was happening: "Rongxiu! What are you doing again!"

Did he really think this was a hotel? He came and went as he pleased, and even beat her up!

Fuling was already howling in pain, and she started punching and kicking the man in black who was holding her.

Rong Xiu hurriedly threw Fuling over to avoid being beaten.

"I didn't do anything! I don't know what kind of powder you, a maid, sprinkled on yourself to poison yourself like this!" Rong Xiu looked away guiltily, but was merciless in his words.

Hua Yuanzhao glared at him angrily, took Fuling into the house, and picked out a packet of medicine powder for her to take.

"Miss, Master Rong is bullying us!" Fuling started crying and complaining as soon as she was able to speak.

"He came to my house in the middle of the night and suddenly stood behind me. I thought he was someone sent by the second young lady! So I sprinkled the medicine powder on him, but who knew what means Mr. Rong used to blow the poisonous powder here." Fuling said aggrievedly.

Rong Xiu chuckled and said gloatingly: "With your little tricks, if you want to drug me, you need to practice for a few more years!"

Hua Yuanzhao took the ointment and applied it on Fuling's red and swollen face. Hearing this, he glared at Rongxiu in annoyance.

"It should be done like this." Rong Xiu picked up the empty paper bag on the table and demonstrated: "You need to be flexible with your fingers and sprinkle from bottom to top. When you sprinkle, your feet should deviate or step back..."

He demonstrated it several times before asking seriously, "Come on, you two try it."

Hua Yuanzhao was speechless and didn't want to pay any attention to this guy.

"Why are you here?"

She originally thought that Rong Xiu wanted to talk to her about something, but looking at the latter's appearance, it didn't seem like there was anything urgent!

"Oh, I heard that you were almost starving to death." Rong Xiu slapped his head and took out two oil-paper bags from his arms and handed them over.

"Here comes a timely help." Rong Xiu said, looking Hua Yuanzhao up and down several times: "But you don't look like you are starving to death!"

He unfolded the oil paper package, and inside were four big, fragrant buns.

Fuling swallowed and muttered softly, "After the young lady was confined, no one came to deliver food for several days..."

Rong Xiu shook his head and said with disdain, "Why, Prime Minister Hua is planning to starve you to death?"

Hua Yuanzhao was speechless and could not help but sigh: "Master Rong..."

"Call me Rong Xiu." Rong Xiu said calmly, "Isn't it easier to call me Rong Xiu? Calling me Rong Gongzi sounds like a woman."

Hua Yuanzhao was choked and gritted his teeth and said, "Master Rong, have you ever thought that this might be a conspiracy?"

She and Fuling have been locked up here for several days. Who leaked the news?

Hua Yuanshan? Or Madam Han?

"I'm worried about you, isn't I?" Rong Xiu stuffed the bun into Hua Yuanzhao's arms and said, "Even if it's a fire pit, I have to jump down and bring you something to eat before I leave!"

Hua Yuanzhao was speechless and looked at Rong Xiu as if he was a fool.

Rong Xiu felt uneasy when she looked at him. He raised his hand and touched his nose, saying, "It's because Lin'an is making too much noise! ​​They forced me to come and see you!"

As they were talking, they suddenly heard noisy footsteps outside. Hua Yuanzhao turned his head to look in the direction of the door and could vaguely see the glow of fire outside.

Rong Xiu crossed his arms, his eyes becoming stern in an instant.

"Hurry! Hide quickly!" Fuling was so anxious that she was about to cry again.

There are obviously people outside trying to arrest them, so why is this guy still standing there like a fool?

Rong Xiu's mouth twitched slightly, and just as he was about to speak, the door was kicked open.

Mrs. Han, who was in the lead, glanced around the room and finally fixed her gaze on Rong Xiu, who was not hiding.

Hua Yuanshan followed behind Mrs. Han and looked at Rong Xiu proudly.

What a famous young general, but he is just like this! She just used a little trick to trick people into coming here!

The aunt just wanted the little bitch to make a mistake. Since the little bitch was hiding in the yard like a turtle, why didn't she just put the reasons for her mistake in front of her?

Sure enough, she spread the news that the little bitch was starving during the day, and Rong Xiu came to her door at night!

"Master Rong." Madam Han stared into Rong Xiu's eyes and spoke. Her voice was hoarse and strange, as if it came from hell.

"I wonder why Prince Rong broke into the boudoir of the Hua family's eldest daughter in the middle of the night?" asked Mrs. Han.

Rong Xiu gave a dry laugh and stood there lazily with his arms folded.

"Isn't this about the Nanzhao assassin? There are still some details that I need to confirm with Miss Hua."

He lied without changing his expression, and added: "It was an emergency and I had no choice but to come to your house in the middle of the night."

Madam Han couldn't help but sneer. How could Rong Xiu say such words? Did he really think they were fools?

"What Prince Rong said makes sense," Madam Han said slowly, then changed the subject and said, "The Prime Minister is not at home today, so Prince Rong should talk to Madam Hua about this!"

Madam Han flicked her sleeves and gestured to Rong Xiu, "Prince Rong, please come in."

As soon as she finished speaking, the servants outside the door jumped in, all looking at Rong Xiu with eager eyes.

Rong Xiu shrugged and said, "It's the middle of the night. It's not good to disturb the old lady's rest, right?"

He said this, but his steps were not slow, he walked out in an orderly manner.

Hua Yuanzhao calmed himself down and followed forward, but was stopped by Madam Han.

"You are still under house arrest, so there is no need to follow me." Mrs. Han said slowly.

Rong Xiu frowned slightly, then turned his head to look at Hua Yuanzhao calmly.

The two of them simply exchanged glances, and Hua Yuanzhao obediently took a step back and stopped following.
