Chapter 42 Relief
Ruan Qing looked at a few strangers in front of her, her beautiful brows could not help frowning slightly.

"Who is what?"

A few daughters came here. I heard that Ruan Qing was easy to bully, so she planned to have some fun with her while taking advantage of the boring banquet.

"I heard that the daughter-in-law of the General's Mansion is sick and ugly. I thought these were just gossip. I didn't expect that when I saw it today, it turned out to be true!"

After several people finished speaking, they all covered their mouths and laughed out loud, leaving no face for Ruan Qing.

However, Ruan Qing didn't plan to spend time with them, and dragged Yuebai to the banquet.

As a result, several people came up and surrounded the two.

"Since you've already shown up, why are you still covering up? Why don't you just take off the veil and let us enjoy it."

"What's your peace of mind? Why don't you try it if you want it?"

Seeing their yin and yang strange appearance, Ruan Qing couldn't bear it any longer, and directly threatened.

A few people were stunned, thinking that Ruan Qing was just angry and ashamed, and threatened them casually, and they wanted to say something else when they saw Yuebai holding a small medicine bottle in his hand.

Yuebai opened the medicine bottle with a dark face, and when he got some powder in his palm, he held it up in front of several people without saying a word.

"What, want to try?"

Everyone screamed in fright, and many people at the banquet were attracted by their voices.

One of the young ladies ran directly to the emperor and cried, "Your Majesty, Miss Ruan's family wants to harm us, she is jealous!"

Ruan Yu didn't think that there would be trouble with someone looking for Ruan Qing, but it was also a good thing for her, so she sat quietly and waited for the show.

The emperor directly called the guards to surround them, including Ruan Qing and Yuebai.

"Since you don't want to come to the banquet, then go out!"

Everyone was afraid that they did not expect that the emperor would drive people out, and the fathers of the daughters all came up to plead for their daughters.

"It's not the emperor! Miss Ruan's family is still holding something in her hand! It looks like poison, she must have made this face herself, and she deliberately came to the banquet to win sympathy!"

One of the daughters was not reconciled, and directly stepped forward and pointed to the medicine bottle in Yuebai's hand.

Ruan Qing was standing there, but no one from the Ruan Mansion came up.

After all, Jun Xiyi is not the head of the family. Now that the emperor is in a good mood, she can't take the Ruan Mansion to take risks.

"I'm just frightening them, who asked them to make trouble! I'm just fine sand."

Yuebai stood up and held up the medicine bottle for people to see, and fell to the ground: "Look carefully!"

The guard squatted down to pick up some observations, and found that it was indeed fine sand, so he turned around to report to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, this is indeed fine sand, not some poison powder."

The few daughters had nothing to say, and they all stood there waiting for their father to come to atone for their sins.

The emperor listened to the chatter of several of them, and waved his hand to say forget it first, and let the guards retreat.

But there were people who didn't like what they wanted, and they walked up directly while Ruan Qing was not paying attention, grabbed her veil and shredded it, and stuffed something in Ruan Qing's hands, when she was about to slap her by the collar. , the hand was caught!
After Ruan Qing reacted, she looked at the thing in her hand, and found that it was the same medicine bottle that Yuebai brought. After guessing the purpose of the visitor, she threw the medicine bottle on the ground without thinking.

The medicine bottle shattered after hitting the ground, and some unknown black liquid flowed out.

"What is this?" The emperor immediately asked the imperial physician to come and see.

The imperial doctor sitting on the cushion came up with the silver needle, pierced it and pulled it out to see that the part of the silver needle that had fallen into the liquid had completely turned black.

"Back to the emperor, this liquid is poisonous!"

The emperor looked at all this in shock, and what shocked him even more was that it was none other than the second prince, Chi Yu, who protected Ruan Qing.

You must know that the second prince is notoriously cold-blooded. As long as it is none of his business, no matter how big the trouble is, he will not care.

What's going on now?He actually took action to protect Miss Ruanfu!
People looked at the liquid on the ground and thought it belonged to Ruan Qing, and they proposed to the emperor to drive her out.

"Your Majesty, this woman has ulterior motives at first sight. It's better to drive her out!"

Yuebai wanted to say that anything was stopped.

"It's not hers."

The originally noisy banquet was stunned by Chi Yu's words, and they all turned their heads to look, even the emperor was no exception, squinting at Chi Yu.

"How do you prove it?"

Chi Yu grabbed the person who wanted to frame Ruan Qing, pulled him directly to the front and back of the emperor, kicked him on the knee and forced him to kneel.

"The poison belongs to him, and all this is done by other people. It has nothing to do with this girl. I hope the father and the emperor will investigate."

Ruan Qing stared blankly at Chi Yu, she herself did not expect Chi Yu to come out to help her clear the siege, she had already thought of a plan, but now it was all interrupted by Chi Yu's appearance.

What is his purpose, does he know my identity?
Seeing that Chi Yu rarely stood up for a girl, the emperor was naturally happy, but the girl's face in front of him was already rotten.

"That's enough, seeing that today's banquet, I don't want to make trouble, so I won't bother with everyone."

In the end, the emperor softened his heart and did not drive everyone out, but let everyone stay for the final reception.

It's just that the person who was going to frame Ruan Qing was taken directly to the nearest county government office and put in the prison for interrogation.

Fang Cao saw that the person she hired was caught by Chi Yu, so she had to give up and secretly left the banquet alone.

Ruan Yu watched Chi Yu relieve Ruan Qing, gritted her teeth in anger, and clenched her fists: "Ruan Qing. Wait for me!"

"Thanks to the prince for helping the little girl out of the siege."

Ruan Qing saluted and thanked Chi Yu and walked with Yuebai to a place with less crowds. She didn't worry that other people would come to trouble her after what happened just now.

On the surface, there was no expression, but Ruan Qing kept thinking about Chi Yu's behavior just now. She noticed the emperor's expression, and she was also very shocked.

This made Ruan Qing puzzled, and thought of the person who had been secretly stalking him before.

At the banquet, Ruan Qing noticed Chi Yu and the subordinate beside him. The subordinate's figure was somewhat similar to the person who followed her, which made it difficult for her not to associate Chi Yu's behavior with the previous events.

Guessing that the identity of her Yuan girl is likely to be suspected by Chi Yu, Ruan Qing began to plan whether to continue to pretend, or to show up directly.

After weighing it left and right, she still intends to act as Miss Yuan first, which will not cause too much trouble to the Ruan Mansion, and it will be easier for her to do things.

"Miss, do you really have no antidote?"

The two slowly paced to the lake, and Yuebai asked Ruan Qing in a low voice after seeing no one around.

"Not really." Ruan Qing found a medicine bottle from her body, poured out an antidote, ate it, and looked at Yuebai.

Knowing that she would definitely scream, she raised her finger in time to match the silence.

Yuebai understood, turned his head to look at the lake, and the smile on the corner of his mouth didn't feel lifted, "I knew that Miss must have a solution."

The two didn't stay long, and when they turned back, they saw Chi Yu standing there looking at them.

Seeing that they were about to leave, Chi Yu silently looked away.

"Miss, why do you think the second prince wants to help you?"

Thinking that Ruan Qing was acquainted with Chi Yu, Yuebai boldly looked at Chi Yu who was not far from them.

"I don't know," Ruan Qing shook his head, "I have no relationship with him, and naturally I don't know what he is going to do."

Without getting an answer, Yuebai had to leave with Ruan Qing.

But they had to go through Chi Yu on their way out.

"See the second prince." The two of them saluted and planned to leave.

"Miss Ruan, can you take a step to speak?"
