Chapter 167

In the tent of Prince Chu's mansion, Chu Feiyan and Li Shiba were chatting and playing chess to pass the time.

"Are Princess Feiyan and Ms. Li inside?" Suddenly, there was an impolite questioning voice from outside the tent.

Chu Feiyan raised his eyes to look at Qiuyue, Qiuyue immediately understood, opened the curtain and asked, "Who is outside? Why are you looking for our princess?"

Standing outside was a high-spirited old nanny, pulling her neck and shouting: "I am the nanny who is serving by Empress Yifei. Just now, Empress Empress ordered all the female relatives to accompany her to the next mountain to enjoy the scenery. Concubine Yi After the empress got the order, I specially asked the old man to pass it on to all the female relatives!"

Chu Feiyan and Li Shiba looked at each other, and saw vigilance in each other's eyes.What are you kidding, go to the mountains to enjoy the scenery in this cold day?
As the saying goes, if something goes wrong, there must be a demon!
Although the Queen and Concubine Yi had nothing to do with Chu Feiyan, their son was at odds with Chu Feiyan, and they both had enmity.Could it be that they stood up for their son and wanted to take advantage of the great opportunity of Prince Chu to go hunting to beat her up?
But it shouldn't be!The Queen and Concubine Yi are opposites, and it is impossible for the two of them to join hands to deal with her.So, is she thinking too much?

In fact, no matter whether Chu Feiyan was overthinking it or not, the queen personally ordered the invitation this time, so Chu Feiyan would not go.

After a while of contemplation, Chu Feiyan raised his voice and responded, "Got it!"

Outside the tent, the old mama heard Chu Feiyan's tugging sound, and left with a soft 'pooh' sound.

Seeing this, Qiuyue lowered the curtain and complained to Chu Feiyan.

Chu Feiyan laughed sarcastically, "It's just a bullshit, so there's no need to take it to heart!"

Li Shiba raised his eyebrows, and sighed suspiciously: "Is the queen's brain trapped by the door? This is a world of ice and snow, where can I enjoy the scenery?"

Chu Feiyan put away his smile, and said in a solemn voice: "The queen's invitation this time may be a conspiracy."

"Conspiracy? Against you?" Li Shiba asked worriedly, thinking of the relationship between Chu Feiyan and Prince Yan Wenyuan.

Chu Feiyan shrugged, and hummed self-deprecatingly: "It's very possible! After all, there are really not too many people who want to kill me."

She is used to assuming danger, so that if an emergency does occur, she will be able to deal with it with ease.

Seeing Chu Feiyan's self-deprecating appearance, Li Shiba shook his head disapprovingly, "Let's go, we'll play by ear later, maybe you are overthinking."

Chu Feiyan said 'hmm', and asked Qiuyue to stay and let Mingyue follow alone.

"Yan'er, put this away and save it for self-defense!" Li Shiba gave Chu Feiyan a few paper packets, and he knew it was poison powder without guessing.

Chu Feiyan patted his waist, and replied with a smile: "Cousin, keep it for yourself! I have the poisonous needle that I learned from you last time."

"If you want to keep it, you can keep it, I have a lot!" Li Shiba forcefully stuffed the paper bag into Chu Feiyan's hand.

Chu Feiyan had no choice but to accept everything as ordered.

After a while, the two cousins ​​walked out of the tent hand in hand.

But not far away, the Queen and Concubine Yi were standing and chatting with the female relatives, everyone looked very happy.

Chu Feiyan walked over with Li Shiba side by side, paying his respects neither humble nor overbearing.

The queen nodded slightly when she saw the two of them, and then suggested: "Since everyone is here, let's go!"

The royal hunting ground is surrounded by mountains and mountains. In addition to the several mountains planned for hunting in the paddock, there is also a particularly high mountain.Because the hillside is steep and high, it is not suitable for hunting, so it was thrown away as a barren hill.

If you come in spring or summer, the scenery here is undoubtedly the best.But in this winter, there are only weeds in sight, and Chu Feiyan really doesn't think there is anything to look at.

Especially the princess Yan Ruoxue and the scumbag Zhou Yuxiu cast gloating looks at her from time to time, as if they were afraid that Chu Feiyan would not notice that there was a trap waiting for her ahead, which made Chu Feiyan even less in the mood to appreciate the 'beautiful scenery'.

On the other side, the queen and concubine Yi took all the female relatives up to the mountainside, laughing and chatting all the way, forgetting the exhaustion of climbing.

Yan Ruoxue, Zhao Ziyue, Zhou Yuxiu, and Chu Feixue were always by Concubine Yi's side, and these women who were full of bad taste were like-minded, and had a good time chatting as a group.

As for Chu Feiyan and Li Shiba, they have been walking at the back of the female relatives, keeping an unknown vigilance in their hearts.

A group of people climbed to the high place, looked up at the surrounding mountains, and breathed the purest air.

Chu Feiyan followed closely behind, but felt a little powerless.She frowned and stopped abruptly.She has a bit of martial arts foundation, and her physical condition is much better than those of the ladies.But now, after only reaching the halfway up the mountain, she was exhausted and exhausted.

This is very wrong!Chu Feiyan panted lightly, and couldn't help frowning.

Li Shiba saw that Chu Feiyan stopped in his tracks, and his face was still a little pale, so he lowered his voice and asked, "Yan'er, why didn't you stop?"

Chu Feiyan lowered his voice, "Cousin, I have no energy all over, and my heart feels uncomfortable. I feel like I've been drugged!"

"What did you say?" Li Shiba's eyes widened in shock, he couldn't believe that someone could prescribe medicine in front of her little poison doctor, and it was successful.

Chu Feiyan frowned, his face was gloomy and ugly.

As the princess of Chu Palace, Chu Feiyan's food needs to be tasted by her personal maid with a silver needle, and only after the taste is correct can she be presented to her.Except for Qiuyue, who was loyal to her in the past and present, the maidservant beside her was only Mingyue.

But Mingyue was pointed out to her by Xuanyuan Hao, and whether he is loyal to her can be seen in daily contact. Chu Feiyan doesn't think that the other party will harm her.

Then the problem lies elsewhere, maybe someone put some non-lethal medicines that cannot be detected by silver needles in her food, such as Mongolian perspiration medicine, Ruanjin powder or something.

But who is that person?Thinking of Yan Ruoxue who was gleefully peeping at her just now, Chu Feiyan secretly shook his head, feeling that no matter how long the other party's hands were, he would not be able to reach into Chu Palace.

Suddenly, Chu Feiyan thought of a person, and that was the second lady of Prince Chu's residence who was with Yan Ruoxue... Chu Feixue!

Just imagine, if Chu Feixue inspected food or water sources as a lady of the palace, and made some tampering with it, who would suspect that she had evil intentions and wanted to murder her sister-in-law?
The most important point was that when Chu Feiyan was eating with Li Shiba at noon, Chu Feixue, who had never entered her tent, barged in brazenly, and took away a bottle of Li Ji's pickled vegetables.

Now that I think about it, her behavior at that time was very strange and not in line with her usual style. It was very likely that she went to the tent to monitor whether Chu Feiyan had eaten the drugged meal...

Chu Feiyan was thinking secretly when she heard Li Shiba whispering in her ear: "Did Chu Feixue do it? I suspect it was her."

"..." Chu Feiyan pursed her lips tightly, her voice was a little weak, "It's very possible!"

Li Shiba clenched his fists and scolded angrily: "Damn it! You're really a snake and a scorpion, and you actually helped outsiders murder your own sister. When I go back, I will tell my uncle to kill her, a black heart."

Chu Feiyan glanced at Chu Feixue who was chatting and laughing with Yan Ruoxue in front of him, and laughed at himself weakly: "I'm afraid she came prepared, before you go down the mountain, cousin, she will join others to kill me first!"

"Whoever dares to hurt you, I will poison her to death!" Li Shiba's face was dark and serious.

Chu Feiyan patted Li Shiba on the shoulder, and said kindly: "Cousin, now is not the time to show off. The person they are targeting is me, you listen to me, go tell the queen now, just say that you are unwell gone back!"

Li Shiba is the cousin of the Duke's Mansion, and she is also the granddaughter of the poison doctor Luo Jiu. Chu Feiyan believes that as long as Li Shiba has not violated other people's interests, no one will be foolish enough to try to deal with her.

"You are already like this, we must go back!" Li Shiba listened to Chu Feiyan's words very much, and pulled her towards the queen who was chatting not far away.

Seeing this, Chu Feiyan grabbed Li Shiba anxiously, and whispered in her ear, "Cousin, I can't go back with you! If I'm not mistaken, there must be many masters ambushing me on the way down the mountain to kill me." To death. If you go down the mountain alone, those people will definitely not show up, and you can go back safely. But if I go down the mountain with you, they will definitely come out, and I will never let go of this golden opportunity!"

Li Shiba was startled, and his face changed suddenly, "If you say that, then I can't leave you alone!"

Chu Feiyan pressed Li Shiba's shoulder and lowered his voice, "No! Cousin, calm down and listen to me. The current situation is that the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light. Although I don't know what happened today and the two Is there any relationship with this empress, but it is obviously inseparable from Chu Feixue, Yan Ruoxue, Zhou Yuxiu and the others. There are many people here, and they dare not attack me blatantly when I stay, so the best countermeasure now is that you go back first, Tell the guards of the palace about the situation here, and let them find a way to notify my father as soon as possible..."

"No!" Li Shiba immediately retorted anxiously when he heard Chu Feiyan's suggestion, "Yan'er, this is too risky! Uncle is in the paddock, who can find out his exact location? Let's go together, Either stay together, anyway, I won't leave you alone!"

Seeing Li Shiba's insistence, Chu Feiyan sighed helplessly.

Li Shiba glanced at the people talking and laughing over there, seeing that they were walking faster and faster whether it was intentional or not, his face suddenly became ugly.

On the side, Mingyue, who was closely behind the two of them, suddenly stepped forward and stated the obvious facts, "Princess, I feel that it is not wise to stay here now."

Chu Feiyan was drugged, and now he felt weak all over his body and felt uncomfortable when the drug took effect.If you stay any longer, there may be some bad reactions.

But the Queen and Concubine Yi took the female relatives away very quickly, without any intention of staying at all.If this continues, sooner or later they will be alone and attacked.

Chu Feiyan felt that Mingyue's words were reasonable, so he gritted his teeth and whispered to Li Shiba: "Cousin, instead of sitting and waiting for death, why don't we rush down the mountain as fast as the medicine has not reached its limit?"

As long as they returned to the area where the tent was stationed, no one would dare to attack her and Li Shiba openly.

Li Shiba agreed with Chu Feiyan's proposal, and nodded heavily in response: "That's right, I have exactly the same intention!"

The two exchanged glances, and Li Shiba suddenly exclaimed "Oops".

The female relatives walking in front heard the strange noise behind them, and turned their heads to look over.

The queen asked solemnly: "What happened next?"
