Marshal, your vest is off

Chapter 220 Seducing the Poisoner

Zhao Wuyan saw her spreading the medicinal powder and looked at her in surprise.

A glimmer of understanding flashed in Cheng Qing's eyes.

Qiuyan smiled and said, "Princess Yan, I was surprised, didn't I guess it? I knew you liked this kind of mung bean cake."

Zhao Wuyan saw her being careless and moved her mouth, but she didn't say anything, for fear that if she said something, she would be wrong.

Qiu Yan opened another layer of boxes, sprinkled a thin layer of medicinal powder on it, took out a stack of exquisite cakes, and said: "Osmanthus sugar steamed chestnut flour cake."

"Wishful cake."

"Rose Crisp."

"Cloud cake."

"A pot of Longjing."

Qiu Yan put out all the food and asked with a smile: "Do you like it?"

Cheng Qing nodded and said, "It's full of color, fragrance, and looks good."

Qiu Yan narrowed her eyes with a smile and said, "As long as you two masters like it, it's not in vain for me to work hard to bring these cakes for the eighth princess's maid."

Zhao Wuyan turned to look at Cheng Qing, but she really didn't understand what the riddle was in this?
"That's it." Cheng Qing picked up a piece of pastry, took a bite, winked at Qiu Yan, and said, "It tastes very delicious. Qiu Yan, if you invite the eighth princess over, say I'll invite her to come and eat with us." pastry."

"Yes." Qiu Yan felt blessed and went out.When the road became clear, he said three words softly.

Zhao Wuyan looked around and lowered his head with an inexplicable and awkward smile.

Cheng Qing handed her another piece of pastry, leaned closer and said, "Yan'er, you can eat some too."

"Yes." Zhao Wuyan nodded, took it, and ate it in small bites.

Cheng Qing whispered in her ear: "The Eighth Princess was tricked. Those pastries were poisonous. Qiu Yan just told me that they were all cartilage powder. We will just sit here and don't move." Let’s see who comes here.”

There was too much information in this sentence, and Zhao Wuyan still had many questions in her mind. She wanted to know who would plot against Zhao Wushuang, and also wanted to know why their cakes were poisoned?What is the purpose of poisoning, etc., but it is not safe here and this is not the time for her to ask.

Normally, Zhao Wuyan would choose not to speak when he felt in danger, and this time was no exception.

Zhao Wuyan listened to her words and slowly ate the cake.

Cheng Qing poured two more cups of tea, drinking one for himself and giving the other to Zhao Wuyan.

Zhao Wushuang didn't go far after she left. She went to see Concubine Shu.

After praying, go back.

On the way back, she happened to meet Qiu Yan who came to look for her.

"I've met the Eighth Princess." Qiu Yan bowed respectfully.

"No courtesy." Zhao Wushuang went to Cheng Qing in a hurry. Without seeing clearly who was saluting, he raised his feet and walked directly in front of her.

Qiu Yan grabbed Zhao Wushuang's arm.

Zhao Wushuang frowned and looked back at her. The palace maid next to her was about to scold her, but she stopped her.

Qiu Yan curled her lips and smiled, knowing that she recognized him.

Zhao Wushuang was naturally unforgettable with such beauty, let alone the person beside Cheng Qing.

"If you want to find your master, come with this princess." Zhao Wushuang thought she was here to find Cheng Qing. After all, she brought Cheng Qing to Qingcheng Palace alone.

It's not a surprise that Cheng Qing's maid would come over.

Qiu Yan smiled and said, "I'm not here to see my young lady, I'm here to see you, the Eighth Princess."

Zhao Wushuang frowned and said, "You came to see me?"

Qiu Yan nodded.

"What do you want from me, princess?" Zhao Wushuang asked.

Qiu Yan looked at the maid beside her and said: "The matter of my coming to see the princess is a bit hidden. It is about the princess's lifelong event, so princess, let's talk in a quiet place."

Zhao Wushuang came back to his senses, understood what she meant, and said, "Xiangqiao, you don't have to follow me. If I see you following me, I will break your legs." "Yes, princess." Xiangqiao shook. , replied respectfully.

Zhao Wushuang looked at Qiuyan and said, "Come with me."

Qiu Yan nodded and followed her to a quiet place.

Later, when Xiangqiao saw them leaving, she quickly turned around and ran in a certain direction.

Qiu Yan looked back slightly, and happened to see Xiangqiao's hurried away figure.

"I've seen the eighth princess."

Qiu Yan just turned around and saw a tall man saluting Zhao Wushuang.

Zhao Wushuang said coldly: "Get out."

The tall man was humiliated and his face didn't look very good, so he threw up his sleeves and walked away.

The corner of Qiu Yan's mouth twitched and she said, "Eighth Princess, I bet you haven't changed at all."

Zhao Wushuang laughed, turned to look at her, and said: "I'm just scaring them, what are you thinking in your head? It's true that just like the master, there is the same kind of maid."

"Huh, that's right, you can't embarrass our young lady, right?" Qiu Yan said with a proud smile.

"Let's go." Zhao Wushuang said this and led the way.

……

At the pavilion, Cheng Qing and Zhao Wuyan had already sat down on the bench. They sat with their heads leaning against each other, watching the people coming and going outside, not moving, and just whispering.

"Why hasn't Qiu Yan come back yet?" Zhao Wuyan asked nervously.

Cheng Qing smiled and asked: "Yan'er, are you scared?"

Zhao Wuyan nodded and said: "A little bit."

"I'm here, don't worry, it'll be fine." Cheng Qing said.

Zhao Wuyan asked worriedly, "If someone comes, will they separate the two of us alone?"

"Are you still afraid if we don't separate?" Cheng Qing asked.

"I won't be afraid if we don't separate." Zhao Wuyan affirmed.

Cheng Qing smiled and said: "Okay, let's not separate. No matter who it is, we will fight each other."

"Yeah." Zhao Wuyan nodded.

After a while, a man walked over.

Zhao Wuyan became nervous and asked: "Sister, do you want to fight?"

"That seems to be Mo Simiao, wait a minute." Cheng Qing said.

"Ah? Isn't he your subordinate? How could he harm you?" Zhao Wuyan asked.

Cheng Qing frowned and said, "I'm also surprised by this. Don't move for now and wait and see what's going on."

"Ah."

Mo Simiao strode towards her, as if he wanted to tell her something. However, before he could reach the front of the pavilion, he was pulled away by a young eunuch who suddenly appeared.

Cheng Qing frowned and said, "It's not him."

"Yeah." Zhao Wuyan was inexplicably relieved and said, "It's better if it's not him."

Cheng Qing raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Yan'er, do you have a crush on him?"

"Sister, where did you go? I thought you would be very sad if he betrayed you, so that's why you said that." Zhao Wuyan said.

"Oh, so that's it. Well, it seems that we have to wait two years for our Yan'er to regain her consciousness." Cheng Qing joked.

"Sister~ You are not serious again." Zhao Wuyan said half annoyed and half angry.
