Chapter 19 19. If one meal is not enough, beat it twice
Hua Zuiyue drank the antidote and her health improved slightly.

She lay dead for a whole day, and on the second day, Li Luo finally brought a maid over to serve Hua Zuiyue.

"His Royal Highness the Second Prince has given you orders to take good care of the Second Prince's concubine."

The maid nodded in agreement, and then said to Li Luofu Fu Shenzi, "Thank you, Master Li Luo."

She was the maid that Hua Zuiyue came to marry. After following Hua Zuiyue to Qinghui Palace, the people from Qinghui Palace found a reason and arranged her to be moved to another place.

Yesterday, she learned the news that her little prince was poisoned, and she had a suitable reason to find Liluo and take the initiative to take care of Hua Zuiyue.

Their little highness was poisoned in Qinghui Palace. They were wrong in the first place, so Qinghui Palace had no choice but to comply with their request.

Chujiu maintained the posture of Fu Shen and watched the people from Qinghui Palace leave with an expressionless face.

When she turned her head, she realized that Hua Zuiyue had woken up at some point.

"Your Highness, are you awake?"

Chujiu's cold face finally revealed a hint of joy, and then revealed a hint of obvious worry, "Is Your Highness still feeling unwell?"

"The heavenly doctor prescribed medicine and I'm much better now."

After recovering from a serious illness, Hua Zuiyue's voice was a little hoarse and she felt a little uncomfortable.

Chujiu knelt down on one knee and apologized, saying loudly, "I failed to protect your Highness, and I beg Your Highness to punish you."

A faint smile appeared on the corners of Hua Zuiyue's lips, "Chujiu, I'm fine, you can get up."

Chujiu refused and still knelt down, stubbornly saying, "Please punish me, Your Highness."

Hua Zuiyue sighed, "The fault is not yours, so why should you be punished?"

Chujiu lowered his eyes and said nothing.

In any case, it would be their dereliction of duty if they failed to protect their master.

Hua Zuiyue was helpless.

"I knew that the things I ate yesterday were poisonous. Not only the tea, but also the snacks I ate yesterday were also mixed with poison. I checked in advance and found that they were not fatal poisons. have eaten."

Chujiu frowned, somewhat disapproving of Hua Zuiyue's approach, "Xiaodian's body is precious, how can he take risks with his own body?"

Hua Zuiyue raised the corners of her lips and said, "If not, how would you have the chance to be transferred back to me."

Someone finally built this platform. If she didn't follow the trend, wouldn't she have wasted such a good opportunity?
If anyone dared to build a pole, she would dare to climb up the pole.Opportunities are for those who are prepared!
What a clever little ghost she is!
Chujiu was stunned.

She had been thinking about it before she came. His Highness was already gifted, but he was secretly raised as the heir of the demon clan.According to common sense, His Highness cannot easily fall for poisoning.

The doubts in her heart were cleared, and she suddenly said, "That's it."

Hua Zuiyue said, "Everyone knows that I am a fool, and my actions are restricted in many ways. With you by my side, I can save a lot of worry."

……

On the other side, Li Luo went to Ye Yuehui to return his life.

If Ye Yuehui has something to do on weekdays, he will stay in the study.Sometimes he would practice in seclusion, so he didn't actually spend much time in his room.

When Li Luo passed by, Ye Yuehui was holding a book and reading. When she saw him coming, she raised her eyes to look at him.

"How are things going?"

Li Luo bowed and replied, "I have already made arrangements according to His Highness's instructions."

Those who sneaked into the Hui Palace from other places are now under their control.

"What about her?"

Liluo: "???"

Who?
It took a while for Liluo to realize that the person His Highness was talking about was the second prince's concubine.

"Back to Your Highness, I have already obeyed His Majesty's wishes and transferred the maid next to the Second Prince's Concubine to look after the Second Prince's Concubine."

"Ah."

Ye Yuehui looked calm and had no expression on his face.

"Your Highness, I don't understand why Your Highness wants to——."

Ye Yuehui: "It's lively."

Liluo: "..."

Can you wait until he finishes speaking?

Liluo said earnestly, "Your Highness, that demon clan has always been cunning and cunning. There is already a demon clan in the palace. If her maids are transferred to Qinghui Palace, I am worried that they will be detrimental to His Highness."

"Noisy!"

I don't know who I'm talking about.

Liluo: "..."

Li Luo was choked.

Ye Yuehui lazily opened his eyelids and raised an eyebrow at him, "Are you okay?"

Li Luo considered for a moment, "Your Highness, as for the second prince and concubine, would you like me to find someone to continue watching?"

Ye Yuehui put down the book in his hand and seemed a little annoyed. His tone was neither serious nor serious, "Do you want me to teach you how to do this kind of thing?"

Liluo: "..."

"Get out!"

Li Luo rolled out in a hurry.

He has long been accustomed to His Highness's unstable temperament.

……

Hua Zuiyue lay down for a whole day and rested for a few days, and her health finally improved.

Although this poison is not fatal, you still have to suffer the sin.

Hua Zuiyue grimaced in pain, slapped her thigh for the last time, and cursed, ready to find out the real culprit.

During this period, Ye Yuehui came to see her once.

Hua Zuiyue was stupid, so Chujiu took the initiative and brought up the matter of finding the murderer for her. Ye Yuehui didn't know why, but she actually agreed to the matter.

So on the next day, Chujiu followed the orders of the second prince and concubine to start a thorough investigation of the person who poisoned the house.The outer courtyard of Qinghui Hall.

A row of fairy maids in charge of kitchen meals knelt on the ground and shivered.

Chujiu looked at the kneeling maid on the ground with a cold face and an expressionless expression, "Tell me, who among you was responsible for the poison?"

Hua Zuiyue was poisoned after eating snacks and tea from the kitchen.She had already asked the patrolling guard.Apart from the maidservants responsible for meals, no other people were found entering or leaving the dining room.

Several immortal maids shook their heads in denial.

Seeing that no one acknowledged it, Chujiu's face turned cold again. "If you are unwilling to confess today, then I will beat you all up. When you are willing to confess, I will spare you."

Demon clan people have always been simple and rough in doing things.If one beating doesn't work, then give it two.

Whoever has the biggest fist is the boss!

Immortal maids: "..."

Demons don’t care about martial ethics.

Even Hua Zuiyue, who was called to support the scene, couldn't help but twitch her lips.

Chujiu wasn't investigating anything, it looked like he was taking this opportunity to deliberately retaliate.

One of the immortal maids seemed a little unconvinced and replied in a neither humble nor condescending manner, "We are just the immortal maids in charge of meals. We prepare meals carefully on weekdays and have never done anything out of the ordinary."

"As soon as you come up with no evidence, you accuse us of poisoning the second prince's concubine. Even if you beat me to death, I won't accept it!"

As soon as the fairy maid at the station spoke, Hua Zuiyue's eyes lit up. She immediately became interested and looked at the little fairy maid a few more times.

Chujiu had a cold face and took out the whip that he had already prepared, regardless of what the little fairy maid said.

Hua Zuiyue: "..."

Yes, this style of fighting over disagreements is very similar to the style of the demon clan.

Seeing that she was serious, Hua Zuiyue quickly stood up from her chair.

"Ajiu, wait."

Chujiu was just about to use the whip when he heard Hua Zuiyue's voice and subconsciously stopped what he was doing.

"Your Majesty?"

Hua Zuiyue smiled and patted Chu Jiu's shoulder before looking at the little fairy maid who was forced to kneel on the ground.

"What's your name?"

Hua Zuiyue simply squatted on the ground and looked at the little fairy maid, her eyes filled with innocence and curiosity.

The little fairy was quite interesting. He didn't look down on Hua Zuiyue because she was a fool. Instead, he replied in a nonchalant manner, "Back to the Second Princess, my maid's name is Qingcheng."

"Green orange?"

Hua Zuiyue stood up happily, stood up with a smile, clapped her hands and said, "Green oranges are good, I like to eat green oranges the most. Can you follow me from now on?"

Immortal maids: "..."

Chujiu: "..." How come she doesn't know when did His Highness change his taste for eating green oranges?

Hua Zuiyue seemed to like Qingcheng very much. He took her hand and helped her up personally. "Stop kneeling on the ground. It's so tiring."

Immortal maids: "..."

Without being so partial, they would still be kneeling.

Qingcheng couldn't resist Hua Xuyue's stubbornness, so she reluctantly stood up and saluted Hua Zuiyue again, "My maid, thank you, the second prince and concubine."

"Thank you for anything, you're welcome."

Hua Zuiyue smiled and gave up, then pointed at the immortal maids kneeling on the ground, "Qingcheng, you are so smart, come and help me find out which one of these people is the poisoner?"

The ninth day of the lunar month: "..."

Qingcheng: "..."

Immortal maids: "..."

Qingcheng bowed and said, "Back to the second prince and concubine, I can't tell who is the poisoner."

"what?"

Hua Zuiyue was stunned for a second, "You are so smart, but you don't know who the person who poisoned you is?"

Qingcheng: "..."

Qingcheng rolled his eyes, thinking that this was an opportunity, and saluted in the direction of Hua Zuiyue, "Back to the second prince and concubine, there is no evidence, and the maid cannot know who the person who poisoned her is."

"Moreover, the poisoner is not necessarily the Immortal Maid in charge of meals. I hope the Second Prince and Concubine will learn from this."

This time, Hua Zuiyue felt worried.

She knitted her brows and thought hard. Finally, she seemed to be tired of it and slapped her thigh to make the decision, "Forget it, let's give him a beating. If one meal doesn't work, give him two."

All the immortal maids: "!!!"

Qingcheng: "???"

The ninth day of the lunar month: "..."

Qing Chengmei's heart skipped a beat, and she knelt down with a thud, "Please take back the life of the Second Princess."

"Why?"

Hua Zuiyue tilted her head and looked at her.

Qingcheng gritted his teeth and simply gave up, "Back to the second prince and concubine, now that there is no evidence, it is not appropriate to hit someone. Thanks to the second prince and concubine's love, Qingcheng is willing to do his best for this matter."

"This won't work, and that won't work either. Then tell me how to investigate this matter."

Hua Zuiyue sat directly on the chair, supporting it with one hand, blinking and tilting her head to look at her.

"Back to the Second Princess, you can first have someone find out the source of the poison, and then find out the source of the poison, and then..."

What Qingcheng said was clear and methodical, which made Hua Zuiyue look at her in a different light.

……

The movement on Hua Zuiyue's side had been secretly reported to Ye Yuehui by the immortal attendant.
