Chapter 45
And from this moment, Yongle and even the vast continent, the wheel of history, has quietly changed his direction.

In the evening, Situ Yu'er finally found Bai Yu in the garden before the dinner.As soon as he saw her, he hurriedly dragged her to Shuohua Garden.He also didn't notice the suspicion on Bai Yu's face.Bai Yu felt that Situ Yu'er was really weird today.But right now, what she cares most about is how to go on after knowing her life experience.

The Shuohua Garden was brightly lit, and many officials had already arrived. There were court ladies waiting at the door. When they saw Situ Yuer and Bai Yu, they hurried forward, "See the Crown Princess, the Third Princess, the Crown Prince and the Third Prince are already inside. "

After all, the maid took them to their seats and retreated.From the moment the prince entered the garden, Bai Yu stared at her with deep eyes and a wicked expression.And the third prince was sitting there with his head bowed.Bai Yu and the others sat between the prince and Ning Zhongyong.Situ Ming was sitting across from him. He was talking to a black-faced military officer. When he saw Bai Yu, he gave her a loving look. Bai Yu was still a little embarrassed for a while, so he nodded slightly. Nodding, he secretly stared at Ning.

Suddenly a eunuch shouted at the door: "The empress is here! The national teacher is here!"

The originally lively scene fell silent after hearing this sound.The officials got up and saluted the queen and the old man who entered the garden, Bai Yu looked at the god Yuzi.And Shen Yuzi also glanced at her, and finally sat at the front table in Situ Ming's row, facing her diagonally.

Zhuang Mei sat on the seat in the middle, and after all the courtiers finished their salutes, she picked up the wine glass and toasted everyone.The palace music sounded, the palace banquet was just beginning, and there were dancers dancing on the stage.

The ministers toasted the prince one after another, and they also made a toast to Xiao Zizhe.Xiao Zizhe seems to like drinking very much, and he also drinks with everyone.The scene was quite lively, but Bai Yu only cared about one thing, and that was to look after the Ning family.

Sitting next to Situ Ming, Ning didn't eat, her expression was very unnatural, Bai Yu could even see her inner struggle, but she would not sympathize with this woman, because she was also responsible for killing her own mother!After Situ Ming drank the wine in the glass, Ning suppressed her nervousness, as if she had made great determination, took the wine glass, picked up the jug, and mixed the medicine between her fingers into the wine while no one was looking. middle.All of this, Ning thought she was doing it without anyone noticing it.And Bai Yu saw all of this.

As soon as Ning handed over the wine glass, Shen Yuzi raised his glass and turned to Situ Ming, wanting to toast, Ning felt her heart in her throat.At this moment, Bai Yu concentrated her energy and squeezed the stone in her hand, trying to secretly knock down Situ Ming's wine glass.Before Bai Yu could make a move, an ear-shattering boom sound came from behind, shocking everyone.

All the ministers present stood up from their seats.Many people were shouting: "Hurry up, escort!" "Hurry up! Protect the empress! Protect the prince!" Some civil servants even fainted from fright.There were also some people who were knocked to the ground. Although Zhuang Mei was almost knocked down, she was very dignified and showed no panic expression on her face.The prince was already standing beside her, the speed was so fast that even Bai Yu was shocked.Xiao Zizhe on the side bared his teeth and claws, as if he was insane.Only Ning Zhongyong stood in front of his seat and watched the whole scene calmly. Bai Yu even saw a sneer at the corner of his mouth.

Soon the Royal Forest Army entered the garden, and the prince said quietly, "What's going on?"

A man who looked like a leader stepped forward, clasped his fists and replied: "Report to the prince, I have sent people to investigate, please rest assured the prince, empress and all the adults."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Yu felt something strange behind him, and a burst of force struck him. Before Bai Yu could turn around, he saw Xiao Zizhe, who was beside him, shot in the back, fell forward, slipped, and hit his head hard. After reaching the corner of the table, Bai Yu and the people around even heard the muffled sound of being bumped.Xiao Zizhe fell face-to-face, and soon blood flowed out from under his head.There was also blood oozing from his back.

"Ah..." Situ Yu'er, who was underground beside her, yelled out when she saw such a tragic situation.Some ministers then shouted: "There are assassins! Catch the assassins!" The scene became chaotic again. The prince on the stage frowned slightly and looked at Ning Zhongyong, who was also full of doubts.

"Physician Xuan!" the prince said loudly.And Shen Yuzi had already jumped to Bai Yu's side, grabbing Xiao Zizhe's veins.However, there was another wave of ups and downs, and the Ning family over there suddenly shouted: "General! Ah... General! What's wrong with you! General! Wake up!"

Hearing the scream, Bai Yu looked at Situ Ming, only to see Situ Ming lying on the table with a pale face.Ning shi on the side grabbed his arm and yelled.

All these changes happened so fast that Bai Yu didn't understand what happened.She obviously didn't see Situ Ming drinking that wine just now, damn it!What exactly is going on!

"What's wrong with General Situ? Si Zimu!" ​​the prince said loudly, his usual smile no longer there.

"The minister is here!" A young man stood out from the crowd, handsome and dressed as a general.

"Immediately lead the imperial army, seal the palace, and thoroughly investigate every corner. Find out the cause of the accident and find this assassin!"

"Chen, take orders." The man named Si Zimu turned around and led part of the Imperial Forest Army out of Shuohua Garden.

The imperial physician soon came to the garden and diagnosed Xiao Zizhe and Situ Ming.

"How?" Zhuang Mei asked.

The imperial doctor who treated the third prince replied: "The third prince's condition is unknown now, and the arrow must be pulled out immediately. I think we should quickly carry the third prince to a quiet room and pull out the arrow for him."

"Take the Third Prince to the nearest Youxi Palace." Zhuang Mei ordered. "What's the matter with General Situ?" Then he asked the old doctor who treated Situ Ming.

The imperial physician wiped the sweat from his head, and said: "The general's pulse condition is normal, I think that General Situ should also be carried to a quiet place, so that I can examine the general carefully."

Zhuang Mei raised her hand in agreement with the imperial physician's suggestion.The palace servants carried Xiao Zizhe and Situ Ming out of the Shuohua Garden.Shen Yuzi also followed them out of the garden.

At this moment, no one in the room noticed, and one person in the garden also disappeared, and it was Bai Yu.Only the crown prince on the stage looked at the place where Bai Yu was standing just now, his eyes became darker.
