Chapter 223 Eat
Chapter 223 Eat
The eunuchs who were serving came up immediately, serving tea, water, and snacks, busying themselves with all kinds of tasks.
At this time, Cuiguo, who had been standing outside for half a day, was finally able to come in.
Speaking of Cuiguo, there are also some famous scenes that have gone viral.
One is: Cuiguo, smash her mouth for me.
There are not many people who can slap the heroine Zhen Huan.
The second one was to give Zhen Huan chestnut cake mixed with oleander juice.
The real-name system is poisonous!
To be honest, this trick is really useful.
Because everyone thought that no one would be so stupid as to send something poisonous directly.
But Concubine Qi did the exact opposite!
You are well guarded and there is no chance for anyone to take advantage of you?
Then I'll deliver it myself!
Hongshi was a little surprised to see Cuiguo come in.
But Concubine Qi often asked Cuiguo to send him things, so it was normal for her to come over.
Cuiguo took a deep breath and a smile appeared on her face.
"Third Prince, I am here to bring you some snacks on the orders of the Queen."
As she spoke, she opened the food box in her hand and took out a few plates of exquisite snacks.
Hiroshi nodded.
"Thank mother for me later."
He picked up a piece of mung bean cake and started eating, but saw Cuiguo take out a plate of chestnut cake from the food box.
Walk towards the direction of Hong Yi and Hong Qing.
Obviously I wanted to share it with them.
As a result, the person was stopped before he got close.
Li Xiao had a cold expression on his face and stretched out his hand to block Cui Guo.
"Stop."
Cuiguo was startled by the man who suddenly appeared.
The chestnut cake in my hand almost fell apart.
But thinking of the Queen's order, the Sixth Prince must eat the pastry.
She mustered up the courage to step forward again.
"Sir, this is a cake made by our queen herself. I want to give it to the Sixth Prince and the Seventh Princess to try. I wonder if it is okay..."
"Sixth Prince and Seventh Princess won't eat anything given by outsiders, you can take it back."
Li Xiao interrupted the other party abruptly without giving him any face.
Logically speaking, a normal person would accept the pastry even if he didn't want to eat it, and would be more tactful in his words.
But if I reject them directly now, they will be very embarrassed.
Cuiguo's face was stiff, and Hongshi's face turned red, feeling embarrassed.
Hong Qing, who was drinking milk tea, rolled his eyes and said in a baby voice:
"I'm sorry, Third Brother. Mother doesn't allow us to eat food outside of Yongshou Palace. You should eat this cake yourself~"
Hongyi also smiled.
"Yes, Third Brother, it is difficult to disobey the mother's orders, and this cake was made by Concubine Qi herself. This kind gift should be left for Third Brother to enjoy."
The two impish guys spoke sincerely, but to Hongshi, their words always sounded sarcastic.
How old are they? Someone must have taught them to say this.
He just looks down on his mother!
His mother was not as good as the Concubine Chen, he was not as smart as them, and he was not as good as them in pleasing the Emperor.
So Hongshi felt a little inferior when facing the two of them.
Now that he was provoked by this, he felt that the two of them were blatantly mocking him.
How could a young man like him endure this?
He has self-respect, too!
But Cuiguo was still saying:
"Sixth Prince, please take a bite. This is an order from our queen, saying that she wants to give it to you to taste."
Her humble attitude completely ignited Hongshi.
He walked quickly forward and snatched the plate from Cuiguo's hand.
He grabbed a piece of cake and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Don't beg them, this is made by my mother herself, if they don't eat it, I will!"
In his heart, he felt that neither of them deserved to eat it.
The movement was so fast that Cuiguo didn't have time to react.
She widened her eyes and looked at the Third Prince who was chewing in disbelief.
I just felt a bolt of lightning strike from above my head, and everything went black before my eyes!
"No!"
"Don't eat! Third brother, you can't..."
She raised her hand in horror to stop him, but she didn't finish her words.
Hongshi felt a sweetness in his throat, followed by a burning pain in his mouth and throat.
A mouthful of blood spurted out.
"puff!"
The spray directly hit Cuiguo's face, making her stand there in a daze.
Swallowing large amounts of oleander can cause damage to the oral mucosa and respiratory tract.
In order to solve the problem once and for all, Concubine Qi put enough oleander juice into her mind.
"Plop" sound.
Hongshi fell to the ground, the plate in his hand also fell to the ground, and the chestnut cake was scattered all over the ground.
It was visible to the naked eye that he began to twitch and his eyes turned white, and it was obvious that his central nervous system was also damaged.
This sudden change scared everyone.
No one expected that the Third Prince would fall to the ground after eating a piece of chestnut cake.
There was silence in the room for a moment, and then it suddenly became chaotic.
"Imperial Physician! Send the message to the Imperial Physician quickly!!"
"Third brother, Third brother, please don't let anything happen to you!"
The people on Concubine Qi's side were in chaos.
Li Xiao immediately took two steps back and protected the two princes behind him.
A pair of sharp eyes scanned the surroundings.
After finding that no one took the opportunity to come to their side, he opened his mouth and gave the order:
"Go pick up the snacks on the ground and keep them."
"And the palace maid who delivered the snacks, arrest her!"
Both of these are important evidence.
One witness and one physical evidence.
Even though the one who is injured now is the Third Prince, they, the Yongshou Palace, are the victims!
Because this pastry was sent by Concubine Qi.
Her maidservants also demanded that the Sixth Prince must eat it.
It was obvious that they were aiming to murder the Sixth Prince!
Fortunately, the pastry was eaten by the Third Prince himself, so Concubine Qi was in trouble.
Li Xiao looked at the two young masters who were protected by layers of protection behind him, with a hint of relief in his eyes.
Fortunately, the two princes did not ask for the snack.
Otherwise, as a slave, he would definitely agree.
After all, he couldn't imagine that someone would dare to poison someone so blatantly.
Cuiguo was caught off guard and started screaming immediately.
"What are you doing!"
"You can't arrest me, I belong to Concubine Qi! You can't arrest me!"
She struggled hard, but unfortunately she couldn't break free as she was held down by two strong eunuchs.
These are all Li Xiao's subordinates carefully selected for the purpose of convenience.
Even to prevent Cuiguo from biting her tongue to commit suicide or hiding poison in her mouth.
Li Xiao also stepped forward and removed her jaw, and stuffed a piece of sackcloth into her mouth.
In this respect, he overestimated Cuiguo.
It is easy to say that biting the tongue to commit suicide, but most people can't do it.
As soon as you bite down a little, your body's pain mechanism starts to control your brain and make you let go.
Cuiguo is obviously not the kind of person with a will as strong as steel.
Committing suicide by taking poison is even more impossible, as Concubine Qi does not have such foresight.
Hong Yi looked at the Third Prince who was lying on the ground, and tilted his head as he thought of his mother's words.
He turned to look at his sister, who had the same look in her eyes.
Their eyes met each other, and they didn't look like they were three years old at all.
