Volume 1: The Human World: Phoenix Rising in Fire Chapter 173 Hidden Murder (6)
"Young Master Ji Yue is so powerful, of course I dare not speak carelessly." Hua Xi folded his hands and said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"That's good." The queen smiled charmingly.
Nanny Liu came in carrying a white jade cup filled with a pink and green liquid. It looked fresh and refreshing, and a pleasant fragrance wafted into the air.
"Please drink, Miss Third. This lotus dew is only for the Empress to enjoy. It's a special gift to you today." Nanny Liu said coldly with an expressionless face.
Smelling the fragrant aroma, Hua Xi, with his keen senses, immediately determined that it contained a deadly poison!
The queen wanted to kill her, because the mouth of the dead is the most reliable.
She showed no doubt, picked up the white jade cup, and stirred it gently with a spoon.
"Your Majesty is the mother of a country, but she has an affair with Young Master Ji Yue. Even if this matter is made public, I'm afraid not many people will believe it. But if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knew about it, he might hold a grudge against Your Majesty." She said softly.
"Yuer won't know." The queen stared at her hand closely. Drink it quickly, everything will be over after you drink it!
" When I came back , I told a person I could trust what I had seen. If I died, he would immediately tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince about it."
The queen's eyes narrowed and she stared at her with resentment, "You..."
"Don't blame me, Madam. I was just trying to protect myself. Who made me so unlucky to have seen those things?" Hua Xi tapped the white jade cup with a spoon. "If I wanted to die, I would have shouted about it everywhere."
As he spoke, Hua Xi picked up the white jade cup and prepared to drink the lotus dew.
The queen widened her eyes and her heart beat like a drum as she watched the white jade cup slowly approach her lips.
"The lotus dew is too cold. It's not good for you to drink it. Try tea instead." The queen suddenly said unwillingly.
She may not care whether the world knows it or not, but she cares about her son!
Hua Xi smiled and returned the white jade cup to Madam Liu, then knelt down and said, "I won't drink the tea anymore. I won't disturb the Madam's rest. Hua Xi will take his leave now."
Nanny Liu glanced at the Queen, who nodded slightly. She then lifted the curtain and let Hua Xi go out.
"Madam," Madam Liu asked in a low voice, "She knows too much. Are you just going to let her go?"
"This girl is as cunning as a ghost. She is not easy to deal with." The queen tugged at the embroidered handkerchief in her hand and said, "Let's keep her for a few more days!"
Walking out of the Queen's palace, the hot wind outside blew in Hua Xi's face. He breathed a sigh of relief and slowly smiled.
The Queen is not an easy character to deal with. It seems that I have to be more careful in the future.
She walked slowly in the garden of the palace, and suddenly saw a clear and elegant figure sitting in the pavilion in front of her.
The white clothes are like snow, giving people a cool feeling in midsummer.
Hua Xi walked over a few steps, and outside the pavilion, the loyal Yan Xun stretched out his hand to stop her.
"Please go play somewhere else, girl!"
Hua Xi raised his eyebrows, what a loyal dog.
"Yan Xun, please don't be rude. Please let the Third Miss in." In the pavilion, Long Qianyue's voice sounded gently.
Yan Xun frowned. He had never had a good impression of Hua Xi. It was a pity that His Highness was too kind and benevolent...
He withdrew his hand and let Hua Xi in.
In the pavilion, a breeze blew from the lake, blowing the shark gauze hanging around the pavilion .
There were silver bells hanging under the shark fin gauze, jingling.
Long Qianyue was fiddling with the chessboard. He looked up and smiled at her: "Why did the Third Miss come here alone?"
