88. Chapter 88 Someone Poisoned (Part 2)



Feeling the burning sensation on her index finger, Chu Yaoyao frowned.

The chopsticks in Li Wanzhi's hand fell to the ground with a 'click'.

Her face turned ugly.

poisonous?

Who is it!

Chunshi hurriedly pushed some of the food away and threw it into the corner.

Seeing that the ants that had eaten the food had become motionless, she knelt on the ground in panic.

"I have done something wrong, please punish me, madam!"

She felt regretful and scared. It was all her fault. If the queen and the little princess were poisoned, she would never be able to redeem herself!

"You should get up first. Did you meet anyone on the way there and back?"

Chunshi thought about it carefully, then shook her head, "No."

Suddenly, her face changed drastically, as if she had thought of something.

"I was in the imperial kitchen, and I thought I saw Yuzhu in Zheng Ronghua's palace!"

Li Wanzhi clutched her sleeves tightly, her eyes gradually darkening.

"Jung Yong-hwa?"

Chunshi stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I will go to the imperial kitchen to get some more food."

"No need, go to the kitchenette and eat whatever is available."

After this incident, how could Li Wanzhi dare to eat food from the imperial kitchen? Chu Yaoyao stood on tiptoe, raising her little hands high.

"I'll do it!"

With that, she ran back to her room and soon dragged out a large package.

"This is?"

Li Wanzhi picked up a round object that looked like a dry pancake with some confusion.

It was so hard, but it was fine for her and Chunshi, but Yaoer couldn't bite it.

“Add water and cook!”

Li Wanzhi did as she was told with some doubt.

After a while, I smelled a strong and overbearing aroma.

"My lady, it's actually cooked into noodles, and it smells so good!"

Chunshi took a deep breath, closed her eyes and looked like she was enjoying it.

"younger sister!"

Chu Yao brought a lot of things, especially delicious ones.

As he walked, he thought, this time, he must become the most important brother in his sister's heart! But he didn't expect that the poor hungry girl he imagined didn't appear.

Instead, I saw a little kid holding a bowl and slurping noodles with a very satisfied look on his face.

A familiar smell filled the air, and he swallowed, forcing himself to look away.

He silently hid the food box behind him.

Suddenly I felt embarrassed.

"Third brother! Do you want to eat noodles?"

Chu Yaoyao raised her face, which was covered with shredded noodles, and waved at him.

Seeing that she was eating like a little kitten, Chu Yao walked towards her with an amused look on his face.

When his eyes fell on the food on the table that was brought back from the imperial kitchen, his face suddenly turned gloomy.

"This was sent from the imperial kitchen?!"

Those snobs! How dare they treat Yaoyao so harshly?

Chu Yaoyao angrily told everyone that the food was poisonous.

"What a courage!"

Chu Yao immediately stood up and walked out aggressively.

"I will report this to my father right away!"

He ran all the way to the imperial study, not wanting to run into a veiled concubine.

The moment she saw him, Xiao Yunxi's heart skipped a beat.

The corners of his mouth, which were originally smiling, froze and he became panic-stricken in an instant.

I didn't expect to meet someone familiar so soon.

Although she was veiled, she had met the Third Prince many times!

Will she be exposed?

Xiao Yunxi was at a loss and stood there in a daze.

Seeing this, Mo Ying reacted very quickly and leaned close to her ear, saying something in a voice that everyone present could hear.

"My lady, this is the Third Prince."

Her voice brought Xiao Yunxi back to his senses.

"Meet His Royal Highness the Third Prince."

There was some doubt in Chu Yao's eyes.

Why does this person feel familiar?

"Who are you?"

The young eunuch beside him stepped forward to remind him.

"Your Highness, this is Yue Zhaoyi of Yuefu Palace."

"Yue Zhaoyi?"

Chu Yao frowned slightly.

"I will take my leave first."

Afraid of saying more and making more mistakes, Xiao Yunxi left in a hurry.

Seeing her walking away quickly as if escaping, Chu Yao became even more confused.

Run so fast?

There must be something wrong! When he entered the imperial study and saw the soup bowl on the table, and thought about the person he had just met, he felt a little uncomfortable.

The Imperial Concubine and Yaoyao were nearly poisoned, but my father was in a good mood to be here with his red sleeves and beautiful concubines offering soup and showing his courtesy! He was simply... heartless! After dealing with a memorial, Emperor Qixuan raised his eyes and saw his resentful eyes. His eyelids jumped and he was puzzled.

What happened to this child? "What?"

Chu Yao snorted and turned to look aside.

"My sister's meal was poisoned by Jung Yong-hwa!"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Qixuan clenched his hands on his knees into fists, lowered his eyes to look at the memorials on the table, with a storm brewing in his eyes.

Seeing that he didn't say anything for a long time, Chu Yao looked at him in disbelief.

"Father!"

"I told you that the imperial concubine and my sister were poisoned. Why didn't you react at all?"

Emperor Qixuan swept the soup bowl to the ground with a crisp sound.

"I have already issued an order not to allow anyone to go to Qionghua Palace. You are disobeying my order. How dare you question me?!"

"Then punish me, or just throw me in jail!"

Chu Yao gritted his teeth, stiffened his neck and glared at him, refusing to give in even a little bit.

"You threw the Marquis of Zhenxi into jail without any investigation, and even spared the Zhao family who begged for mercy. You ignored the imperial concubine and my sister because of false rumors..."

Chu Yao's eyes were red as he made accusations one by one.

Finally, he used so much force that the blood vessels on his forehead bulged, and he let out a cry: "You don't look like our father at all!"

"shut up!"

Emperor Qixuan slammed the table heavily and then stood up.

"Don't mention this matter again!"

"Someone come!"

Su Maowen walked in quickly, holding his breath.

"Send the Third Prince back to Chendong Residence and do not allow him to step out of the palace!"

"No need, I can walk by myself!"

Chu Yao roared, glared at him deeply, then turned around and strode away.

At this time, there were faint sounds of footsteps outside the door, and Su Maowen looked over.

"Miss Mo Ying, what do you want?"

Mo Ying looked at a loss, as if he was frightened by what had just happened.

"Butler Su, my wife's bracelet fell here."

Su Maowen motioned for her to wait outside, then turned and quickly walked into the imperial study.

"emperor?"

Emperor Qixuan gave him a look and then glanced under the desk.

Su Maowen looked down and saw that it was indeed there.

He was wondering, since the emperor had already seen it, why didn't he remind Yue Zhaoyi?

Mo Ying took the bracelet and left.

After the door was closed again, Emperor Qixuan sat back heavily as if he had lost his strength, with blood faintly flowing out from between his clenched fists.

"emperor!"

Su Maowen was shocked and rushed forward to help him.

Emperor Qixuan grabbed his collar tightly, his eyes were red and full of murderous intent.

"The Imperial Kitchen, it's time to knock!"
