The daughter of the splendid good fortune is respected

Chapter 754 Revenge (2)
Xiao Mingyu laughed, "Second sister-in-law really knows how to joke. It wasn't because of an accident earlier, and there were too many things in the house, so I didn't have time to go out to socialize. No, in order to thank everyone for their concern for me, I specially held a banquet. It’s just to make everyone happy and to make it easier for everyone to get to know me.”

The second princess smiled and said, "That's a good idea. Hey, the layout of your palace is quite ingenious, and you must have put a lot of thought into it."

"It took a lot of thought to get the scenery today. But I didn't plant any expensive flowers and plants, and I don't know much about those things. So second sister-in-law, please don't laugh at me and say that I am ignorant." Xiao Mingyu opened joked about himself.

The second princess smiled and said, "Is it so important whether it is expensive or not. Although the flowers and trees in your garden are not expensive species, they are also beautiful and refreshing. This is very good. I think everyone will like it."

Xiao Mingyu was in a good mood, and thanked the Second Princess for her approval.

The second princess looked around, then lowered her voice and asked, "Did the Crown Princess make things difficult for you recently?"

Xiao Mingyu shook his head, "It's never been difficult."

The second concubine covered her mouth and smiled lightly, "You should already know that the crown princess was grounded by the crown prince, and she was not allowed to leave the East Palace. I guess this will be in a state of desperation, and I have no time to pay attention to you. By the way, did you send an invitation to the crown princess?" , do you think she will come today?"

Xiao Mingyu said with a smile, "If the Crown Princess is really grounded by the Crown Prince, then nine out of ten she won't come today."

The second concubine nodded in agreement, "It's true. The crown princess was grounded, and I deserve it. The crown prince should have taken good care of her. Because of her status, she is very domineering, as if she is the most capable empress in this world." I really don't know where her self-confidence comes from."

Xiao Mingyu chuckled lightly, "Your status is noble, so it's natural to have such thoughts."

"Oh, she hasn't sat in that position yet. What is she proud of? It's not uncommon to be deposed after becoming a princess. This dynasty has been in existence for hundreds of years, and how many princesses have died of abnormal deaths. She also I don't know how to learn a little lesson. Do you think you can sit back and relax after sitting on the crown princess?"

"Second sister-in-law be careful, you can't say this nonsense, be careful to spread it, saying that you and I have ulterior motives and slander the East Palace."

The second princess patted the corner of her mouth, "Look at me, I get carried away when I talk about this. You are right to remind us that we can't talk about this anymore, otherwise we will be ginned up and said that we are disrespectful to the East Palace."

As the number of guests gradually increased, Xiao Mingyu could no longer continue to accompany the second princess alone, and greeted the second princess to take a seat in the flower hall, so Xiao Mingyu went out to greet other guests.She is the only hostess in the huge palace, and it is really hard to greet so many guests.Fortunately, after the Han family came, they could help her share a little and help greet the guests in the flower hall.

By noon, all the guests had arrived, and Xiao Mingyu socialized with everyone, speaking polite words.The next step is to welcome everyone to the banquet with wine and food. In order not to make the scene dull, a female storyteller is invited to tell stories at the banquet.It is also a kind of enjoyment for everyone to drink and eat while listening.

Xiao Mingyu toasted and socialized around with a wine glass.To be honest, Xiao Mingyu worked really hard today.

After drinking the wine, Xiao Mingyu felt a little dizzy, but fortunately, all the things on the scene were almost done, and the rest could be much easier.

While everyone was drinking and drinking, Xiao Mingyu confessed and went back to the wing to rest.I drank too much alcohol today and felt very uncomfortable.After drinking a bowl of hangover soup and lying down for a while, I felt better.Then continue to socialize.

After the banquet, I went to the theater again.With tea, I greeted everyone.Xiao Mingyu frowned suddenly, the taste of this tea was a bit wrong, it was different from what she usually drank, not obvious, but to Xiao Mingyu, this subtle difference was very clear.Xiao Mingyu called Mo Si and asked, "Who is in charge of tea and making tea?"

"Is there something wrong with the tea leaves? The servant girl will check now."

Xiao Mingyu nodded and asked Mo Si to go quickly. If there is really a problem with the tea leaves, it would be a big shame to lose face today.As for the tea at hand, Xiao Mingyu didn't plan to touch it any more.

Mo Si came back soon, "Qi Wangfei, there is no problem with the tea, and the tea brewers are all old people in the mansion, who are used to this job."

Xiao Mingyu frowned, "You think of a way to bring some cups of tea from the guests, and this princess has to verify it herself."

After giving the order, Xiao Mingyu took the opportunity to leave.Back in the wing room, seven or eight cups of tea were already placed on the table, all of which were brought from the theater building, and which cup belonged to which guest was marked.Xiao Mingyu was very satisfied with Mo Si's carefulness.The next step is to taste the tea to see if there is any difference.Mo Si and Narcissus's sense of taste is not that sensitive, and their judgment on tea is not strong enough, so this work can only be done by Xiao Mingyu alone.

Xiao Mingyu only took a small sip each time, and spit it out after feeling the taste. After tasting a few cups, it was fine, and it was no different from what she drank before, except for her cup, which tasted a little strange, as if she drank Chen The feeling of tea.Xiao Mingyu wondered why everyone else's was fine, but hers was the only one that had a problem.Xiao Mingyu thought of the girls who delivered the tea, they were all familiar faces, logically there shouldn't be any problems.

Xiao Mingyu kept an eye out and asked Mo Si to arrange someone to keep an eye on the tea room and every girl who brought tea.In addition, people asked the imperial doctor to go to the house quietly, Xiao Mingyu suspected that his cup of tea had been mixed with other things.So she needs an imperial doctor to examine.It wasn't that Xiao Mingyu made a big fuss, ever since he was assassinated, Xiao Mingyu believed that there was nothing wrong with being careful.She still wants to live a long, long life and grow old together with Zhou Gan, but she can't die so early and hang up so vaguely.

Both Mo Si and Narcissus are aware of the seriousness of the problem and dare not be careless.He was even more worried about Xiao Mingyu's body.

Xiao Mingyu waved his hand, "I should be fine. I felt something was wrong as soon as I drank the tea, so I didn't drink it." Xiao Mingyu was also sure that there were no wounds or ulcers in his mouth, so if he didn't swallow it, he should be fine. is that OK.But just in case, Xiao Mingyu swallowed a lot of warm water and rinsed his mouth, worried that there would be residue in his mouth.

Xiao Mingyu returned to the theater building and continued to watch the play, as if nothing had happened.Mo Sitong and Narcissus were the ones he could absolutely trust, staring at the teacup delivery girl in the tea room.Once suspicious, immediately arrested.As for the girl who brought tea to Xiao Mingyu earlier,...This meeting has also been brought under control, and people are asking what happened, and they must find out the crux of the problem.

The second princess asked curiously, "Why, did something happen in the mansion?"

Xiao Mingyu shook his head and said with a smile, "It's nothing, it's just servants... You know, these girls have a lot of thoughts these days, and it's inevitable that there will be some disputes, which will affect everyone watching the show, so I will go out and deal with it myself."
