Chapter Thirty-Three

The cicada didn't dare to make a sound.

Last night, Nangong Ling had an attack of love poison, and the kitchen even ordered lotus seed soup made with a love potion. But at the most critical moment, Nangong Ling still pushed the joke away and ran to find Feng Jiuqing.

If you mention this matter again, wouldn't it be like stabbing a knife into Miaoyu's heart?

"The prince has arrived——"

At this moment, a servant's voice came from outside.

Miaoyu put down the teacup in his hand in panic and stood up quickly. The expression on his face instantly changed from anger to worry.

Sure enough, the next moment, she saw Nangong Ling's long figure turning around the curtain and walking in quickly.

Immediately, Wongyu's tears fell down and she fell into Nangong Ling's arms.

Nangong Ling pushed away Wan Yu last night and came here early this morning.

Who would have thought that as soon as he came in, Miaoyu would fold her head into his arms with red eyes?

"Yu'er?" Nangong Ling was startled, and quickly supported her and raised her little face, only to see that Miaoyu's face was full of haggardness from a sleepless night.

He couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with you?"

Before she could say anything, a tear fell from her eyes. With her pale complexion, she was so charming that Nangong Ling quickly wiped her tears.

"Brother Ling, I'm sorry for you. I checked that bowl of lotus seed soup last night, and I never thought that someone had given me a love potion." Miaoyu sobbed softly.

At this time, as early as last night when Nangong Ling returned to her senses and came out of Feng Jiuqing's courtyard, she had already conducted a thorough investigation.

"It doesn't matter." He felt complicated, but still said with relief.

It was not that he did not doubt Miaoyu, after all, the lotus seed soup was delivered from her hand, not to mention that what he found was also the hand of the maid in Miaoyu's courtyard.

However, the witty words have helped him a lot and he is someone he cherishes.

"Brother Ling, I was careless." Miaoyu had tears on his face, blaming himself in annoyance, "I sent you here without checking first, and made you drink this lotus seed soup and go to my sister's yard...

"

At this point, she suddenly paused and forced a smile: "But if we can reconcile the relationship between brother Ling and sister, it would be great to think about it, I..."

"There's no need to talk about this anymore." These words stung Nangong Ling.

He was upset in his heart.

Last night, he was confused. He took the charm potion and pushed away the witty words. However, he never thought that he would sneak into Fengqiyuan and force Feng Jiuqing...

The woman's bite marks still remain on his shoulder, and there is a dull pain, as if to remind him of his mistake.

"Your Majesty." At this moment, the guard's voice came from outside, "The maid who drugged you last night has been caught."

Miaoyu's eyes flickered and he bit his thin lips: "Brother Ling..."

The prince's face immediately darkened: "Bring him in."

The guard immediately came in carrying a maid with her arm twisted.

No need for the guard to push her, but seeing Nangong Ling's cold face, the maid's legs were already shaking like chaff, and she knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly.

"My lord, have mercy on me! My lord, have mercy on me!"

As soon as Miaoyu saw her, he rushed to Nangong Ling and asked, "Are you... the girl in the kitchen? Why did you drug Brother Ling?"

Nangong Lingben's face was as dark as water, and his eyes were cold and sharp, like knives that made people dare not look directly at him, "Say, I sent you here?"

The maid was frightened and said, "My lord, my lord, this servant was temporarily possessed by a ghost. I saw you welcoming that treasonous traitor back into the house again, and I was afraid that you would fall into her trap again and become obsessed with me. That's why I took this strategy yesterday."

Seeing that he didn't scold him, the maid hurriedly kowtowed, "I know this is what Miss Wongyu ordered, and I will definitely give it to you personally, so... so..."

Speaking of this, she suddenly showed a hint of resentment, "I just didn't expect that I would be able to help that witch in the end!"

"Absurd." Nangong Ling rebuked coldly, "You are trying to harm Yu'er's innocence. Yu'er is a person that the king cherishes. How can I allow you to take advantage of her and kill her with a stick?"

"Brother Ling." Miaoyu hurriedly grabbed him, frowned lightly, bit her lower lip, and begged, "She... her original intention was for Brother Ling's good, but maybe she was just obsessed. Can you spare her life?

"

Nangong Ling's face was still tense, and she took a deep look at Miaoyu.

He stared at Wan Yu and slightly looked away.

Just when the maid had a pale face and thought that she was bound to die, Nangong Ling finally changed her mind.

He said: "Then whoever listens, pull him down, beat him twenty times, and drive him out of the house."

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty for not killing me!" The maid was taken away by the guards, still shouting.

After the sound faded away, Nangong Ling took Wu Yu into her arms and said, "It means Yu'er is too kind. If there was something true last night, wouldn't it have harmed you?"

Wiaoyu was shocked.

Does this make her suspicious?

Fortunately, she did a good job with her face. She lowered her head slightly and pretended not to hear his temptation. She just shook her head and said, "Brother Ling, it's my fault. I don't know what the people under my command are thinking, and I didn't expect that my sister would be so different in the eyes of these people."

She has become a witch, and she still lives with Yue'er. If something like this happens, Yue'er may be affected..."

Nangong Ling let go of her and said, "Yue'er has someone to protect you. If you get involved, it means I didn't take good care of you. You should rest today."

Wan Yu nodded obediently.

It was not a big deal for a maid to be expelled from the house, but the matter of a maid who drugged her master but was not killed with a stick aroused heated discussion in the house.

"This girl Wanyu is really the prince's favorite, and she is kind-hearted. After a few words of begging, the maid saved her life."

"That's not true, that is the future master of our palace!"

"I think it would be better to handle this matter as soon as possible and drive out the traitor!"

The servants did not shy away from their comments, so Fengqiyuan naturally received a lot of rumors.

Zizhu glanced at Feng Jiuqing, who was sitting in a daze on the rocking chair, feeling a little unbearable.

"Princess, don't take what these people say to heart..."

"What's up?"

Unexpectedly, Feng Jiuqing leaned back out of boredom, stretched out, and asked lazily, obviously not taking this matter seriously.

The comfort that Zizhu felt in his mouth immediately stuck in his throat.

She thought Feng Jiuqing was upset about this incident!

Feng Jiuqing stood up unsteadily. She had recovered from a serious illness and felt refreshed. She was fine everywhere, but it was too boring to stay in the yard all day.

"Where's Yue'er?" she asked.

Zizhu hurriedly replied: "The Queen loves you so much that she entered the palace this morning."

"You won't follow?" Feng Jiuqing wondered.

"Princess, I heard that you have not recovered from your illness, so I told my slave to take good care of you." Speaking of this, Zizhu couldn't help but smile, "Princess, with you taking care of me these days, the princess has become much stronger. She used to follow me closely, but now

I also learned to take care of others.”

Feng Jiuqing also felt warm in her heart.

"You should follow her. I've been bored here for a few days and want to go out." Feng Jiuqing rubbed her wrists and moved around.

But hearing these words, Zizhu behind him widened his eyes, "Get out, get out?"

Feng Jiuqing's status was sensitive. Although Nangong Ling did not send anyone to keep an eye on her, there must be secret guards around. If she rashly went out and angered the prince, there would be no good consequences.
