Shen Ruoxi's watery eyes glanced at her.

This concubine seems to have a good temper, but when it comes to talking, she really doesn't know how to get people to answer her.

She smiled and said: "Empress De Fei is joking, I just drank some tea in Changqiu Palace, and I am not thirsty at the moment."

"It's a good thing for the Crown Princess to be cautious. It's really dangerous if you don't have any sense of defense in the deep palace."

With that said, she reached out to hold the cup of tea in front of her and raised the glass towards Shen Ruoxi.

"My tea-making skills have been praised by the Emperor. It would be a pity if the Crown Princess does not drink it."

She picked up the teacup and drank the tea in one gulp.

This was to reassure Shen Ruoxi that the tea was not poisonous.

Shen Ruoxi stared at her movements, then took the tea cup in her hand, put it to her lips, and smelled it.

Very fragrant, indeed a good tea.

She lowered her head, pursed her lips, and then said.

“It’s really good tea.”

The smile on Concubine De's lips deepened, and then she said: "Today, Concubine Xian danced "Nice Clothes", which the late Empress was best at, so the Empress was angry."

Shen Ruoxi asked: "Why?"

"Because Concubine Xian looks too much like the late Empress." Lu Shuyi said, "In fact, from the first time the Queen saw Concubine Xian, she disliked her and opposed her entering the palace. However, she could not resist the emperor's liking, and finally let Ning Yingying entered the palace."

She shook her head.

"Everyone thinks that the Empress is jealous of the Xian Concubine, but that is not the case. As far as I know, the Queen Empress has always had a good relationship with the late Empress. She does not like the Xian Concubine, probably because she bears the same suspicion as the former Empress. The face appearing in front of her will make her miss the late queen."

Shen Ruoxi nodded thoughtfully.

"Is there such a reason? I didn't expect that Concubine De knew the Queen Mother very well."

"Not only do I know about this matter, but Ning Yingying also knows that the Empress does not like her resemblance to the late Empress, so she deliberately danced the "Neon Clothes" today to deliberately anger the Empress."

Shen Ruoxi was stunned and said afterwards.

"Thank you, Concubine De, for telling the truth."

She looked at the sky outside, then stood up.

"It's getting late, so I'll go back to the East Palace first."

"I won't send you off. The Crown Princess will go slowly."

Concubine De held the tea cup and looked up at Shen Ruoxi with a gentle smile.

Shen Ruoxi took the maid, turned around and walked out.

After her figure completely disappeared from his sight, Lu Shuyi slowly stood up.

She walked to the opposite seat where Shen Ruoxi had just sat, reached out to pick up her tea and looked at it.

Not a drop is missing.

The corners of her lips were slightly raised.

The defensiveness is really strong.

Lu Shuyi stretched out her hand, put down the tea cup, and then ordered the maid beside her.

"Ran'er, take my tea set and clean it."

She turned her head and said one more word: "Wash it clean."

……

Prince Rui's Mansion.

Murong Yao sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, holding the chess piece in his hand, sitting opposite Su Sheng.

He spoke.

"Have you heard, uncle? The prince's recovery is now a miracle."

"This king already knows about this."

His eyes darkened slightly, and he was a little displeased: "I shouldn't have listened to that old fox Xiao Wentian's words in the first place. What's the word 'Jiu Ye'? It was so miraculous, but in the end I waited for this ending."

After finishing speaking, Su Sheng's handsome face narrowed his eyes slightly, showing a hint of contemplation.

He remembered what Xiao Wentian said in the attic before.

For people from the Spirit Clan, blood can detoxify hundreds of poisons.

Could it be that Murong Heng found someone from the Spiritual Clan?

This idea just came up, but he denied it again. It was too ridiculous and unbelievable.

He frowned slightly.

"I'm afraid something has changed around the prince."

"Uncle, what do you think is the turning point?"

"Shen Ruoxi."

Su Sheng blurted out: "If you think about it carefully, didn't the prince's changes occur only after he was with Shen Ruoxi?"

Hearing this, the look on Murong Yao's face paused, and then his eyes suddenly turned cold.

Turnaround...

Xuantong's words before presiding suddenly rang in his ears.

He turned the chess piece in his hand and smiled.

"Uncle is right. Just in case, why not kill Shen Ruoxi?"
