Chapter 215 was drugged

In a moment, the ladies in the back hall and the guests in the men's table in the front all arrived.

Immediately afterwards, the people who came to pull her out of the pond also came.

Mingxiu felt that she had not calmed down yet, so she just looked at the visitor quietly without speaking, but her reddish eye sockets reflected her calm eyes, and with one glance, she seemed to see through all the worries in everyone's hearts.

Shu Wenqi hid among the crowd and couldn't help but grit her teeth secretly when she saw Mingxiu's condition.

Xie Zhan got word from Egret earlier and followed her without delay, but in the end he was still one step later than everyone else.

Seeing Mingxiu in the pond, all wet, but no one came forward to save her, I couldn't help feeling suffocated.

"Why didn't anyone save the princess?"

While blaming the servants of the Zhen Mansion, Xie Zhan did not forget to tell the guests who were watching the excitement to do what they were supposed to do.

The moment I touched Mingxiu, I felt the different heat on her body. As sophisticated as Xie Zhan, I knew what Mingxiu had gone through with every breath.

She glanced at Shen with a gloomy look. Regardless of whether this matter had anything to do with her or not, this banquet was organized by Shen. If anything happened to Mingxiu, Shen would be the first to bear the brunt of the blame.

Although she was unjust, Shen knew that she was in the wrong and did not dare to contradict her. She stepped forward in a low voice and asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to arrange a spare room for the princess?"

She also saw the abnormal flush on Mingxiu's face, and didn't dare to think about it. It would be okay if Mingxiu just fell into the water at their house, but if she was tricked here, then...

Xie Zhan dared to nod, but Mingxiu stuck his head out and said: "Prepare a clean room, a bucket of cold water for me to bathe, and a lot of warm water."

He obeyed the authority in urgent matters and did not even care about Mingxiu's rudeness. This matter was basically the fault of the Zhen family.

Mrs. Shen nodded, and in a moment someone asked Xie Zhan and Mingxiu to leave.

"My coat is there."

When it was time to bow her head, Mingxiu jumped out of Xie Zhan's arms without saying a word, and walked to the bathroom behind her with her weak legs supported by the girl.

During this period, he did not forget to look back at Xie Zhan, "My matter this time must have something to do with Shu Wenqi."

He only left this sentence, ignoring Xie Zhan's reaction, and Mingxiu walked away.

She couldn't hold it any longer and needed to relieve the effects of the medicine quickly.

Although she didn't give any instructions, Mrs. Shen quickly invited the doctor over.

None of the guests outside knew what happened. They only knew that Mingxiu fell into the water and called a doctor. No one else knew.

Madam Zhen felt very complicated after hearing Mrs. Shen's reply, "This Princess of Showa... can be considered a pure and pure girl."

Under such circumstances, if Mingxiu was obsessed with her, it would be impossible for Xie Zhan not to do something with her.

Xie Zhan originally had feelings for her.

Although the two have an engagement, they are not married yet.

For a person like Xie Zhan, not getting married for one day means that there may be different changes.

The safest thing is to cook your life well.

Does Mingxiu not know this?

She still insisted on holding on by herself. Mrs. Zhen admired such a woman in her heart.

Put yourself in her shoes, if something like this happened to her when she was young, would she persist?

The answer is often unsatisfactory.

Xie Zhan also had complicated feelings about this matter. Although he was proud of Mingxiu's persistence, he had to secretly doubt whether he was not charming enough or whether he had done something wrong that made Mingxiu unhappy.

After this incident, Mingxiu and Xie Zhan did not show up again, and no one knew what would happen next.

After the doctor came to help Mingxiu get rid of the medicine, he looked at her with very complicated eyes and said: "The princess is physically strong and cannot bear the torment of soaking in cold water and blowing in the cold wind. She still needs to take good care of herself. If she catches the wind again, I'm afraid she will die."

It’s going to be cold.”

Mingxiu nodded, "Thank you doctor, I saved it."

I stroked my beard happily, and the doctor took his leave after prescribing the prescription.

For a while, only Xie Zhan and Mingxiu were left in the room.

Looking at Xie Zhan quietly, Mingxiu said calmly: "That cup of tea was brought to me by Shu Wenqi. Has the prince checked it?"

Xie Zhan seemed a little apologetic, "When I went to check, the tea had already been processed, so there was no way to compare."

Even if he wanted to vent his anger on Mingxiu, he still had to provide evidence.

It is always difficult to deal with the daughter of an important minister with just one word from Mingxiu.

It was not only Xie Zhan's selfishness, but also for Mingxiu's sake. If Shu Wenqi was dealt with without any evidence, how would the civil and military officials in the DPRK treat Mingxiu?

not to mention……

Xie Zhan's eyes were a little evasive and he did not dare to look directly at Mingxiu.

As if she had anticipated Xie Zhan's words, Mingxiu stood up and took out a handkerchief from his clothes, "This handkerchief has some tea on it. If there is nothing unusual, I will admit that I slandered Shu Wenqi."

, if there is a problem..."

Mingxiu was never an innocent person. Since she called the Zhen family, she had only touched the cup of tea brought by Shu Wenqi.

I didn’t expect that someone would have figured it out even if I only took a tiny bit of it into my mouth!

After taking the handkerchief, Xie Zhan's face showed a bit of embarrassment.

Seeing this, Mingxiu chuckled and joked: "Your Majesty, you shouldn't let anyone lie to protect Shu Wenqi, right?" There was a hint of probing in it.

She had noticed Xie Zhan's vague avoidance of this matter.

If he really intends to protect Shu Wenqi, then the marriage will be canceled immediately!

If Xie Zhan was thinking about Shu Wenqi, she wouldn't even bother to date someone who has a different woman in mind.

Although Mingxiu's appearance seems to be the same as that of women of this era, in her heart she is still the proud girl of modern times.

Her future husband can only have her in his heart, otherwise, he would rather not marry!

Xie Zhan's face was a little ugly, and he felt a little like he was being chased. After hearing what Mingxiu said, he promised on the spot: "Of course not, I will only protect you."

"As long as I can know whether the tea on the veil contains medicine."

As for whether she would be protected by him, Mingxiu did not express any opinion.

Xie Zhan smiled bitterly in his heart, knowing that his performance just now made Mingxiu a little resentful.

But what can he do?

Shu Wenqi...

You really can’t move now!

She didn't stay in Zhen's Mansion too long. After changing her clothes, she went to say goodbye to Mrs. Zhen.

"This is my family's negligence. Princess Wanwang Haihan, I will personally come to apologize when I have time to spare."

Given Madam Zhen's status, she could not say that she did not take Mingxiu's words lightly.

In the final analysis, Mrs. Zhen was not to blame for this matter. Mingxiu smiled a little sheepishly and said, "Don't say that. It's not your fault this time. There are people who are ignorant. It doesn't matter if you influence me."

Don't take it to heart, let alone apologize."

Mrs. Zhen observed Mingxiu carefully and saw that her expression was calm and she didn't have any resentment at all, so she felt relieved.

"You are a good boy, don't argue with that screwball guy, this matter... the prince will make the decision for you." Mrs. Zhen patted the back of Mingxiu's hand comfortingly.

But after hearing this, the original smile on Mingxiu's face became a little stiff.

But in front of Mrs. Zhen, Mingxiu couldn't help but bluntly said that she didn't believe Xie Zhan.

After being silent for a while, she suddenly smiled and said: "I certainly believe in the prince."

Mrs. Zhen didn't notice anything strange about Mingxiu, or even if she did, she didn't dare to ask. She comforted her a few words and then let her go back.

Returning home exhausted, she gave the medicinal materials to Egret and asked her to boil them.

Although Mingxiu was exhausted physically and mentally, she still had to take care of her body.

When I heard that Ming Xiu was back, Ming's mother was the first to come and see her daughter, as usual.

"What's going on? Why is your face so pale?"

Mingxiu had not been sick for a long time, and her body was as strong as iron. Now she suddenly showed signs of illness, not to mention Ming's mother's distress.

He carefully helped Mingxiu sit down and touched her forehead. She felt that the temperature was still normal, and she was half relieved.

"Mom, I'm fine." Only at home can she be a little warm.

At this time, the egret came back from boiling the medicine and held it in front of Mingxiu.

"Princess, drink it while it's hot, so as not to lose the potency of the medicine."

Now Ming's mother can't do anything even if she doesn't ask.

Unable to do so, Mingxiu summed up the matter in Zhen's Mansion and said that he accidentally fell into the water, without saying anything else.

Talking about drugging will only increase the worries of the family and will not do any good.

not to mention……

A hint of sarcasm flashed in Mingxiu's eyes, maybe Xie Zhan didn't want this matter to be publicized.

Even though Xie Zhan didn't say anything, Mingxiu still had some suspicions in her heart.

Ming's mother felt distressed and slapped the back of Mingxiu's hand angrily, "You girl is becoming more and more senseless, and so is Egret. Why don't you look at the princess?"

Seeing Mingxiu being scolded, Bailu was a little unconvinced and wanted to defend himself, but was blocked by Mingxiu's look.

Listening to Ming's mother's scolding honestly, Mingxiu not only did not feel bitter and resentful, but also had a smile on her lips.

At this time, the oriole outside whispered, "Madam, Princess, Aunt Shilan is here."

The smile on Mingxiu's lips disappeared immediately, "What is she doing here?"

This matter is obviously not something that Oriole can explain. No matter what she does, Mingxiu will not leave Shilan waiting outside.
