Chapter 176 Who are you coming for?

The birthday banquet was still going on. Amid the sound of string music, dancers danced gracefully in the hall with feather fans in their hands.

This was Yunqin's first time watching singing and dancing in the palace, and she just found it novel.

Just when she was watching intently, someone suddenly pulled her sleeve.

She lowered her eyes and met a pair of clean, clear eyes with distinct black and white.

"You, you get me the snacks over there, I, I can't reach it."

It’s the eldest prince.

After all, she grew up surrounded by palace maids, and even though she is so young, she already speaks in a bossy manner.

Yun Qin glanced at Huo Jinchi and saw that he was talking to the Queen Mother, then she lowered her eyes to look at the little ghost who was pulling her sleeve.

Looking at him from such a close distance, his features are just like a miniature version of Hawking Chi. The way he purses his lips and looks dissatisfied is exactly the same as Hawking Chi's.

Yun Qin couldn't help but feel bad and whispered, "I won't!"

As if it was the first time he was rejected, the eldest prince was obviously stunned for a moment, then he blinked his big eyes, but he didn't cry. He pulled her sleeve with more force. With his other hand, he stretched out his hand to grab a plate of red snacks on the corner of the table, and said word by word: "I want to eat that snack!"

Impolite little devil...

Yun Qin snorted in her heart, then lowered her voice and said, "I'm not a palace maid, why should I bring you snacks?"

The eldest prince glanced at the sleeves he was holding in his hands, and clenched his hands as if trying to identify the fabric. "Then, who are you?"

Seeing that he was in a stable mood and even looked serious, Yun Qin tried very hard to hold back her laughter and said with a straight face, "Just call me sister. Just say to me once: 'Sister, please get me some snacks' and I'll get them for you."

This was obviously beyond the eldest prince's comprehension. He frowned and said in a soft voice, "You call me sister?"

Yun Qin nodded without any guilt and pointed at herself, "Yes, you have to call me sister."

She was so focused on coaxing the kid into calling her sister that she had no idea that Hawking Chi's eyes were already on her.

Hearing her so rebelliously coaxing the eldest prince to call her sister, he was so angry that he laughed.

You don’t want to be a mother, you want to be a sister, right?

The eldest prince was still fooled. When he was about to call for help, his mouth was suddenly covered.

The two, one adult and one child, who were whispering, were both startled and looked up almost at the same time.

Looking at the two faces, one confused and the other bright, Huo Jinchi's eyes softened, and his gaze mainly fell on Yun Qin's face, "What are you talking about?"

Yun Qin felt her scalp tingling. Could it be that he, he heard what was said just now?

He must have heard it, otherwise he wouldn't have covered the eldest prince's mouth.

She quietly looked at Huo Jinchi's expression, and was slightly relieved when she saw that he was not angry. She smiled dryly and said, "I, I'm just teasing the eldest prince."

The eldest prince impatiently pulled away Huo Jinchi's hand, looked up at him and said, "Father, is my sister your maid? Please ask her to bring me some snacks."

"Sister, right?" Huo Jinchi narrowed his eyes and looked at Yun Qin.

"I, I was really joking." Yun Qin almost raised her hands in surrender, and quickly said to the eldest prince: "You misunderstood, eldest prince, I am not sister, I am Xi Danying, you can just call me Xi Danying."

The eldest prince had no idea of ​​the cunning of these adults. He just wanted to have a snack, but when he saw that neither of them gave him anything, his mouth twitched and tears fell from his big black and white eyes.

"I want a snack!"

Seeing him crying, Yun Qin felt a little reluctant but still did not reach out to give him some snacks.

After all, she has read a lot of palace fighting novels and watched a lot of TV dramas. At a banquet like this, the thing most likely to go wrong is the food, okay?

Of course, this is the Queen Mother's birthday banquet. No matter how crazy one is, one would not dare to poison the food.

But this may not be the case if something passes through the hands of a third person.

Of course, it is best not to let other people's food pass through her hands.

If something happens, it’s hard to tell.

The eldest prince's crying immediately attracted the attention of others. Concubine De was the first to stand up. She hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the eldest prince is making trouble for you. Please give him to me."

"It's okay." Huo Jinchi was a little helpless. He personally reached out and brought the snacks from the corner of the table over. He took a piece and put it in the eldest prince's hand. "Are you satisfied now?"

The eldest prince finally got the snack, sniffed, looked up at Huo Jinchi, and thanked him: "Thank you, father."

Then he looked at Yun Qin again and snorted at her softly.

Yun Qin couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Brat!

Seeing that there were still tears on his face and he looked so pitiful, she couldn't help but raised the handkerchief in her hand to wipe his tears.

Unexpectedly, the kid not only did not resist, but also put his face under her hands.

Brat...

Yun Qin cursed again in her heart, but her eyes couldn't help but soften and the strength in her hands also lightened.

Seeing this scene, Concubine De's face darkened slightly, and she said to the emperor again: "The eldest prince is making a fuss, Your Majesty should give him to me."

Yun Qin paused and was about to take her hand away, but she saw a red rash on the eldest prince's neck.

"emperor!"

She screamed in surprise, but before she could finish her words, the eldest prince suddenly started coughing, covering his throat with his small hands, looking like he was having difficulty breathing.

"Go and call Jiang Yuanzheng over here immediately!"

De Fei immediately rushed over and asked in panic, "What happened? What happened?"

Yun Qin was pushed away by her. She didn't say a word, but just held Rong Xin's hand and stood up.

The place was in chaos at this time and no one noticed her.

Yun Qin looked at the snack that fell from the eldest prince's hand with cold eyes.

Complete and whole.

Because Yun Qin wanted to wipe his face, he didn't have the chance to enter.

The snack was placed in front of him. If he really ate it, he would have no way of explaining it.

However, all this was not necessarily directed at her, because whether it was her sitting next to the emperor or the eldest prince asking her to get snacks, all this happened too randomly and could not have been planned by anyone.

There might not even be anything wrong with the dessert.

What is certain is that it is definitely aimed at the eldest prince.

Yunqin looked at the Queen.

She was the one who organized this birthday banquet, so she is of course the biggest suspect.

Since it wasn't aimed at her, Yun Qin was happy to watch the show.

But looking at the eldest prince who was held in Huo Jinchi's arms and surrounded by people, she couldn't help but frown.

His face and neck were visibly swollen, and he was coughing even more violently, looking like he was having trouble breathing.

I can't even breathe, but these people are still blocking the area so tightly.

Yun Qin's brows were getting more and more furrowed, but she couldn't help it in the end. She took a step forward and said to Huo Jinchi, "Your Majesty, the eldest prince seems to be having trouble breathing. You should quickly untie his clothes."

In fact, this is just common sense, but they were all panicked and not as calm as Yun Qin, an outsider.

Huo Jinchi looked at her and finally reacted. He turned around, put him on the wide chair behind him, and unbuttoned the eldest prince's collar.

Yun Qin took a quick look, then raised her hands and said loudly, "Don't spill the food on the table. The eldest prince ate these things and that's why he is like this. Who knows which dish is problematic?"

The Queen Mother looked at her and reacted, shouting at the concubines who had surrounded her: "Get out of here!"
