Chapter 291 Showing Loyalty

When Cuiping walked into the side hall of Yangming Palace carrying the porridge, she saw Xu Xiaomi sitting up as soon as she rolled over.

Cuiping enthusiastically said to the bleary-eyed Xu Xiaomi: "Miss! Are you up? Hurry up! The maidservant is cooking porridge, so get up and eat some while it's hot, and ask my uncle to get up and eat some together!"

Xu Xiaomi also smiled and said: "Cuiping! You are so kind, I just woke up hungry! Thank you!"

While putting the dishes on the table, Cuiping thought: I don't know what's going on with Cuipao?Facing such a humble master, she was still not satisfied.

It is estimated that the eldest lady is really too kind to her, that's why she looks confident now.

Xu Xiaomi was stretching, and inadvertently heard Cuiping's innermost thoughts.

However, she didn't ask further, because she had already decided to find a man for Cuitao and send her out, so she didn't want to know too much about what happened to her?
Cuiping delivered the porridge to her, and she reached out to take it, sniffed it and closed her eyes and said, "Mmm! It smells so good! Brother Qiu, Brother Qiu! Get up and eat something!"

Xu Xiaomi yelled, feeling that Qiu Yongzheng didn't respond at all, so he pushed him a few times vigorously, and Qiu Yongzheng snorted twice and sat up.

"Brother Qiu! Quick! Hurry up and have some porridge, you must be starving, right?"

Seeing that Qiu Yongzheng had sat up, Xu Xiaomi handed him the porridge bowl and said.

Qiu Yongzheng held the bowl and sniffed the bowl of porridge with dried meat.Quickly swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva and said, "Mmm! It smells so good!"

Xu Xiaomi looked at his thin face, and said dotingly: "Eat the fragrance quickly! Don't just smell it! Hehe..."

Hearing what his beloved wife said, Qiu Yongzheng took the spoon in the bowl and began to eat in big mouthfuls.

Cuiping hurriedly brought another bowl and handed it to Xu Xiaomi. She took the bowl and began to eat it deliciously.

Cuiping waited for Qiu Yongzheng and Xu Xiaomi to finish eating, and was about to put away the bowls and chopsticks.

Qiu Yongzheng looked at her and asked, "Is there any more porridge?"

She thought she had no chance to speak, but when she heard the master ask, she hurriedly replied: "Ah! Yes! Yes, yes! There are many more!"

Qiu Yongzheng said happily after hearing this: "Then you bring them all!"

Cuiping answered "Yes" immediately, and went to serve Qiu Yongzheng porridge with bowls and chopsticks.

After Cuiping left, Qiu Yongzheng put his arms around Xu Xiaomi and said, "My lady! It's good to have you!"

Xu Xiaomi patted him on the shoulder and said, "Then you have to treat me well in the future!"

"Fool! If I don't treat you well, who else should I treat? Today, I have to clean up all the idlers in the harem. Otherwise, those dangers hidden in the dark will be bad for you and our children .”

Qiu Yongzheng sat up and said to her seriously.

Xu Xiaomi was very moved when he heard Qiu Yongzheng say this, and nodded quickly.

At this moment, Qiu Yongzheng seemed to suddenly think of something, and hurriedly jumped off the couch.He hurriedly ran to the outer hall.

Xu Xiaomi just looked at him, not knowing what happened.When Qiu Yongzheng came back, a quarter of an hour had passed.The porridge served by Cuiping was almost cold.

Seeing Qiu Yongzheng running back excitedly, Xu Xiaomi knew what he was going to do.

"Mimei! Mimei! It's okay! It's okay!"

Qiu Yongzheng yelled loudly as soon as he entered the door.

Xu Xiaomi looked at him, blamed him with a glance and said, "What's the matter? The third prince? Are you still like the third prince?"

Hearing what his beloved wife said, Qiu Yongzheng smiled and said, "I'm just doing this in front of you! Hehe...

Mi Mei, the people who were poisoned last night are all fine, and some of them have woken up now.

You were the one who lit the fire in the hall last night?I'm really here with you
It's so reassuring that you can think of where to heat up the fire so that they don't freeze them. "

Xu Xiaomi looked at him and thought for a while, and realized in her heart that if she didn't make people angry, then Xiao Bailong and Caiyi must have done these things.Now, where did these two guys go?
well!never mind!Anyway, now that I have enough to eat and drink, it's time to do something.

"Brother Qiu! You'd better come and drink the porridge! It's already cold."

After Xu Xiaomi said this, Qiu Yongzheng walked over quickly, picked up a few porridge scooped by Cuiping, and started drinking.

Xu Xiaomi stood up, walked to the gate of Yangming Palace, turned to Cuiping who was standing there, and said, "Go and call Lin Chong, Chief of the House of Internal Affairs!"

Cuiping bowed and answered "yes" after hearing this, and then backed out.

When Qiu Yongzheng heard that she wanted to find the eunuch Lin Chong, he put down the bowl and chopsticks and walked to Xu Xiaomi and asked, "My lady! Why are you looking for Lin Chong?"

"I think, about what happened last night, we need to check to see how many people in the palace were bribed by Zhang.

Pull them out of the dark one by one, so as not to be so panic-stricken every day that everyone can't rest assured when they eat. "

After hearing this, Qiu Yongzheng pondered for a moment, and said: "Last night, I caught two secret works hidden in the imperial dining room.

I didn't interrogate them at the time, but when I came here later, I saw you fainted, and in a fit of anger, I executed the two secret agents. "

"Is that so? It doesn't matter. There must be people who haven't been caught yet. The palace is so big, just one or two people can't make such a big scene last night.

It is estimated that there are still people in the Taihe Palace. How many eyeliners have someone surnamed Zhang planted in this palace?
How are the father and the Supreme Emperor, have you gone to see them? "

Xu Xiaomi was determined to talk to Qiu Yongzheng, and finally asked about Qiu Zhongxiang and Qiu Qiming's situation.

After hearing this, Qiu Yongzheng said: "I went to see Father Emperor and Supreme Emperor last night, they don't know what kind of illness they have?

They were all coughing, and they were all coughing very badly, and the imperial doctors were locked up by Zhang for many days.

Today, when they are well, let them have a look. "

After being reminded by Xu Xiaomi, Qiu Yongzheng immediately stood up and walked to the outer hall.

At this moment, I heard a rustling sound from outside.Immediately afterwards, Cuiping walked in with Lin Chong.

"Miss! Eunuch Lin is here!" Cuiping said respectfully.

Xu Xiaomi looked at Lin Chong with a bright face, and said with a smile: "Lin Chong, there seems to be a happy event! Tell me, let me be happy with you!"

Hearing Xu Xiaomi's easy-going words, Lin Chong quickly lowered his head and replied, "Master! Are you going to give the slave an antidote?"

Xu Xiaomi was amused when he heard that, this man was really afraid of death, so he casually threw a fried pea that he liked into his mouth, and lied to him that it was poison, so he really believed it.

Now that he came to ask himself for an antidote, Xu Xiaomi almost couldn't laugh out loud.He hurriedly put his hand on his lips, pretending not to clear his throat.

After he stabilized himself, he sternly said to Lin Chong: "You still have the nerve to ask me for the antidote? Think about the good things you did last night. Hundreds of people almost died in your hands. You don't care about this matter." How do you explain it?"

Lin Chong trembled when he heard it, and replied with a trembling voice: "Go back to the master! The slave will be assigned... to go down, and then go to do other things. poison.

It is the slave who employs people too carelessly, and the slave is willing to be punished! "

Lin Chong knew that according to the palace rules, she committed a capital crime last night, but this morning the master sent someone to call her. She just didn't want to use the palace rules to deal with herself, but she didn't know what methods she would use to punish herself?
Anyway, now that I am dying, I don't care about suffering a little more pain.

When Xu Xiaomi heard what was in his heart, she remained calm and thought: If you want to die, I won't let you die.

"Lin Chong!" After a long time, Xu Xiaomi called out in a deep voice while he was not paying attention.

"Ah...slave...slave...here!" Lin Chong suddenly trembled when he heard his master calling him.

"I'll call you, why are you so nervous? I haven't said how to punish you yet! You're so frightened, if someone arrests you, they will beat you up!"
Then, in order to save your life, didn't you even buy it from your parents? "

Xu Xiaomi said nonchalantly.

"Master, calm down! Master, calm down! This slave is a bit timid, but he won't buy his parents.

Master, you can rest assured that one day, if the slave is still alive, he will never do anything to betray the master. "

Lin Chong wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, and said solemnly.

Xu Xiaomi looked at him dubiously after hearing this, and said after a few minutes: "Can you really be so loyal? I will use it to you, if you can't do it, then don't say such big things.

lest I destroy your clan! "

After Lin Chong heard this, he raised his right hand calmly and said, "I dare to swear to the sky, if I, Lin Chong, betray the Third Prince and Concubine in the future, I will strike five thunderbolts and strike the sky with lightning."

What Xu Xiaomi worries most now is that there is no one available. She is very happy that Lin Chong can show his loyalty like this.

With those beautiful big eyes, he looked at Lin Chong seriously for about 5 minutes before softening his eyes.

He said to Lin Chong sternly: "Okay! Director Lin, then go and check now, those people have been to the imperial dining room last night.

After three days, if you don't find out, you will come to see me in advance!Don't just find two scapegoats to prevaricate me!

I will personally interrogate the person you find out! "

Lin Chong took the lead and said: "Yes! The slave will definitely live up to the expectations of the master!"

After Lin Chong finished speaking, he knelt down and kowtowed three times to Xu Xiaomi before getting up and retreating.

As soon as Lin Chong walked to the door, he ran into Qiu Yongzheng who had returned from the Taihe Palace.

"Slave pays homage to the Third Prince!"

Lin Chong's voice sounded at the door.

"Excuse me! Go and do your work!"

Qiu Yongzheng's voice also sounded outside.

"Thank you, Third Prince!"

What Xu Xiaomi and Lin Chong said made Cuiping very upset when he heard it.Look at Lin Chong's performance, and think about what my sister said this morning.My heart was beating non-stop.

Xu Xiaomi sat on the chair, looked at Cuiping and said, "Why did I see you alone today? Where did Cuipao go?"

Cuiping listened to her master and asked about her sister, which proved that those two people hadn't told her what they had said to her sister.

Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, Xu Xiaomi was about to question her when Qiu Yongzheng walked up to her.Said: "Mei Mi! Do you know what illness your father and grandfather have?"
