"Your Highness, let's not talk about this anymore! I'm really hungry!"
"Peony, bring the porridge!"
Xiao Xian took the bowl of porridge, scooped a spoonful, blew it cool, and handed it to Bai Fengyao's mouth.
The bowl of porridge was almost finished when Bai Fengyao struggled to get up.
"Yao'er, what are you doing?"
Her eyes were filled with mist. "Yuan'er was originally the beloved pet given to me by the prince, but she died because of me yesterday. I want to bury her!"
"Let Shaoyao bury it for you!"
Bai Fengyao looked at his handsome face, which was as handsome as a sculpture, and felt disappointed again.
Yuan'er was a Pekingese dog given to her by Xiao Xian. She deliberately spilled the bird's nest porridge last night so that Yuan'er could eat it by mistake.
She thought that mentioning Yuan'er would arouse Xiao Xian's anger.
Unexpectedly, this is it?
She bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes, about to fall.
Xiao Xian patted her shoulder gently: "You should have a good rest. I still have to go to the palace!"
After saying that, he looked at Shaoyao again and told her to serve him carefully.
Looking at Xiao Xian's receding figure, Bai Fengyao almost bit her teeth to pieces.
Qu Li, the position of Princess Chen will be mine sooner or later!
Just because the prince didn't take your life this time doesn't mean you can escape next time!
"Peony, help me wash up!"
"yes!"
Soon, Bai Fengyao, who had buried Yuan'er with great ceremony, came to the outside of Qinghe Garden with the support of Shaoyao.
The gate of Qinghe Garden was closed, and two strong guards were guarding the door.
Seeing her, the two guards immediately saluted and greeted her respectfully.
"Concubine Bai, the prince has ordered that no one is allowed to enter Qinghe Garden!"
"How dare you!" Shaoyao shouted, "Concubine Bai, you dare to stop me?"
Bai Fengyao looked displeased, "Peony! This entire palace belongs to the prince!"
Shaoyao admitted her mistake in a low voice, then took out two silver ingots from her purse and handed them to the two men.
The two looked stunned.
"If anything happens, I will take responsibility!"
After getting Bai Fengyao's assurance, the two exchanged glances and opened the door of Qinghe Garden.
Qu Li was woken up and strangled last night. In addition, the original owner was given a chronic poison by someone unknown, and her body was severely weakened. Now she just wanted to get a good sleep.
However, Peony chirped like an annoying sparrow, which really annoyed her.
"Bang--"
She threw a teacup hard at Shaoyao, who had a proud look on her face.
"Sister Princess?!"
Bai Fengyao was also obviously stunned.
Qu Li supported his chin with one hand, and the words "Are you cheap or not?" were clearly written between his eyebrows.
"Don't call me sister! I don't have a sister like you who is as innocent as a lotus!"
Although Bai Fengyao was likened to a white lotus that emerged from the mud without being stained, she always felt that Qu Li's words were a mockery of her.
Her eyes were filled with sorrow, making her look even more pitiful.
"Princess, I believe you would never order your maid to poison me! There must be some misunderstanding! The prince is angry now, I will slowly talk to him and ask him to stop irritating you, Princess!"
Qu Li crossed his arms and listened quietly to her chatter.
Bai Fengyao said so much, but there was no response from Qu Li.
What about the expected anger and cursing?
Wasn't what she just said enough to anger her?
Qu Li smiled, "It's not a misunderstanding!"
"Princess, are you admitting that you ordered the maid to poison Concubine Bai?" Shaoyao was angry.
“Pah pah pah——”
Qu Li stood up suddenly, and the anticipation and laziness on his face had long since disappeared.
Shaoyao was completely stunned. She was frozen for a long time before she covered her burning and painful cheek and looked at Bai Fengyao with grievance.
Bai Fengyao clenched her fingers into fists under her sleeves.
Qu Li actually hit her maid!
How dare she?!
Qu Li glanced at Bai Fengyao mockingly and scolded: "The master is talking, and you, a maid, interrupt without permission. You don't know the rules. Get out of here and I'll slap you in the face!"
"You!" Shaoyao covered her cheeks with her hands, her head smoking with anger.
Bai Fengyao put Shaoyao behind her and met Qu Li's cold eyes.
"Sister Princess, Shaoyao is just eager to protect her master! We will all be family from now on, so why should we part ways on bad terms?"
"Bai Fengyao, how affectionate you are with that scumbag Xiao Xian is none of my business, I don't care!
After all, a scumbag and a bitch are made for each other! But one thing is for sure: I, Qu Li, am upright and honest, and would never do something like secretly poisoning someone!
Whether it was suicide out of fear of punishment, or murder disguised as suicide, an autopsy will tell!"
Bai Fengyao was stunned by the ruthlessness that flashed in Qu Li's eyes.
Then came the panic of thinking about what would happen if the truth was exposed after the autopsy.
Qu Li narrowed his eyes.
What she said just now was a test of Bai Fengyao.
The panic in her eyes was enough to prove that she was the one who staged the poisoning herself!
Rubbing her fingertips, she snorted mockingly and slapped Bai Fengyao in the face several times without warning.
She didn't hold back at all. After a few slaps, Bai Fengyao's face, which had been deliberately powdered and looked a little pale, instantly swelled up like a pig's head.
"Qu Li!"
The blood in Bai Fengyao's beautiful eyes surged up like an overwhelming force.
Qu Li crossed his arms, a mocking smile on his lips.
"If I don't do what you want, how can I be worthy of the opportunity you gave me? The door is behind, get out!"
Bai Fengyao was so angry that she was shaking all over.
Qu Li raised her chin slightly, looking as proud as a queen.
"Concubine Bai, what should we do?" Shaoyao covered her swollen cheek and rolled her eyes at Qu Li in hatred.
