It seemed that she had guessed it.

That medicine is not an antidote, it should still be poison.

If she drank it, her strength would not recover at all, and she could only be trapped here like yesterday, unable to leave at all.

The effects of the medicine she took should wear off soon, as long as she doesn't drink the medicine, she will be fine.

Thinking of this, she returned to the bed decisively and continued to lie down.

Sure enough, not long after, Qiuxiang came back with a lot of food.

"Mrs. Lu, this servant brought you some food." Qiu Xiang directly brought the food to the small table beside the bed.

"Thank you." Tao Yao replied, but did not move, even though she was very hungry now.

Qiuxiang said strangely: "Isn't Madam hungry? Or do I want my servant to feed you?"

Tao Yao heard the words, sat up, took a piece of pastry from the plate, broke off half of it, and handed it to her, "Eat it first."

Qiuxiang was taken aback for a moment, and when she realized it, she quickly waved her hands, "How can a servant eat your wife's food?"

"What's the matter? Anyway, there's no one here, so you can eat it quickly." Tao Yao looked at her with a smile, "Or is there something added to this pastry that you dare not eat?"

Qiuxiang's heart sank, why is Mrs. Lu so difficult to fool?

She hesitated for a while, then stretched out her hand, "Thank you, Mrs. Lu."

"You're welcome, I still expect you to take good care of me in this palace." Tao Yao laughed.

Qiuxiang only felt that the pastry in her hand was like a hot potato.

But she couldn't stop eating.

Thinking, she sent the pastry to her mouth.

After eating the cakes, she said with a smile: "Look, madam, the servants have finished eating the cakes.

Are you worried that the pastry has been tampered with?Now I have eaten, and there is nothing wrong, you can eat with confidence. "

"Okay." Tao Yao nodded and took a bite of the pastry.

Seeing this, Qiuxiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "That's nothing else, the maidservant will leave first."

"Yeah." Tao Yao smiled.

Although the other party hid it well, she could still hear that she was a little anxious.

Qiuxiang quickly withdrew.

As soon as she left, Tao Yao took out the veil and spit out all the cakes in her mouth until it was all gone, then she poured all the cakes on the plate into the quilt.

She didn't drink the medicine, Rongniang would definitely not give up.

Since she asked to eat, it happened that the medicine could be put into the food.

If her guess is correct, Qiuxiang's medicine has already taken effect at this time.

Later, there will definitely be another person to serve her.

Since she "ate" so many cakes mixed with medicine, now, the effect of the medicine should be about to play out.

She counted the time, and when it was about the same time, she lay down, closed her eyes, and pretended to be unconscious.

Sure enough, not long after, she heard someone walking in.

"...that's eating all the pastry."

A strange voice said.

Tao Yao pricked up her ears to listen.

At this time, someone sat down by the bed and tucked the quilt for her.

"Yaoyao, I did this because I had no choice but to tell you..."

After speaking, the man stopped and did not finish speaking.

Tao Yao recognized that it was Rongniang's voice.

She was very sarcastic.

Drugged her out of helplessness?

He really will excuse himself.

After sitting for a while, Rong Niang got up, and said to the maid who came in, "Take good care of her."

"Yes." The maid answered.

Tao Yao lay down for a long time before she heard the voice of the palace lady opening the door and going out.

She breathed a sigh of relief, opened her eyes and saw that the palace lady was no longer in the room.

She can't stay here anymore, otherwise Rong Niang will find ways to give her medicine again if she knows that she didn't eat those pastries.

Thinking about it, she stood up decisively, took a piece of pastry from the quilt, and put it in her sleeve.

After she walked to the door, listening to the movement outside, she didn't go out in a hurry.

She took a vase and hid by the door.

Sure enough, not long after, the maid went and returned.

The moment the door was pushed open, Tao Yao smashed the vase on her head without hesitation.

The maid did not expect that she would hide behind the door when she was unconscious.

The vase hit her head, and she fell down in response.

After the maid passed out, Tao Yao immediately took off her dress and put it on her body, and then put the dress she was wearing on her body.

After putting on the dress for the maid, she dragged her to the bed with some effort and covered her with a quilt.

In this way, even if someone came to see, it would not be so easy to find that she had run away.

When leaving the room, she kicked the broken vase to the corner.

After doing this, she left the house.

Xiyue Palace is very big, and Tao Yao took a lot of effort to get out.

After leaving Xiyue Palace, she walked towards the east.

If she wanted to leave the palace, she might have to turn to Prince Qi Yan for help.

It's a pity that she doesn't know where the East Palace is, so she can only follow the direction.

In order not to attract the attention of others, she tried her best to choose a remote path.

But she hadn't eaten for a long time, and although the effect of the medicine had worn off long ago, after walking for a while, she felt a little weak.

To make matters worse, when passing by a pavilion, she actually saw Concubine Zhang and several concubines sitting in it.

When she wanted to go back, it was too late, and a concubine inside stopped her, "The maidservant, come here."

Tao Yao stepped forward bravely, praying that Concubine Zhang Gui would never recognize her.

She stepped forward with her head down, knelt down in front of the concubines, and said in a low voice, "What orders does your empress have?"

"Go to the imperial dining room and order some snacks." The concubine ordered.

"Yes, servant girl is going now." Tao Yao secretly heaved a sigh of relief, got up and backed away, and exited the pavilion.

After leaving the pavilion, just as she was about to continue walking, the concubine stopped her again, "The imperial dining room is over there, why are you so stupid? You can't even tell the direction?"

Tao Yao quickly glanced in the direction pointed by the concubine, then lowered her head, "Your Majesty, please calm down, the servant girl will go now." After that, she could only walk in the direction pointed by the concubine.

As soon as she left, the concubine who instigated her scolded her: "Are all the maids in the court so stupid now? How can they work in the palace like this?"

The other concubines laughed at her, "As long as you are kind-hearted, you still have such leisure to worry about the maids."

At this time, Concubine Zhang Gui, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "That's not a palace lady."

Several concubines were taken aback, "Isn't it a palace lady?"

"If it's a court lady, you won't even know which direction the imperial dining room is in," Zhang Guifei said.

"Perhaps she is a new maid who is not familiar with the palace." The concubine who spoke first hesitated.

"Let's send someone to follow up and have a look." A concubine suggested.

Concubine Zhang Gui nodded and said to the maid next to her, "Go and see if that maid has gone to the imperial dining room."

"Yes." The maid answered, and quickly chased after Tao Yao in the direction she left.

After Tao Yao came out of the pavilion, she walked towards the imperial dining room.

It wasn't until he got away from the sight of those concubines that he walked in the direction of the East Palace.

But after she had walked a few steps, she heard a female voice behind her yelling, "Who the hell are you?"
