Chapter 272

As soon as these words fell, Xu Ruyi's forehead unknowingly leaked thin sweat.

What does she mean by that?Could it be that he saw something?

Xu Ruyi already had a deep fear of Queen Mother Jiang.

Now, she and Xu Mingxiao...

One wants to betray and the other wants to escape.

This movement is not small, I don't know if Empress Dowager Jiang can detect it.

But right now this Lantern Festival——

If Xu Ruyi confessed at this moment, she would have lost to herself.

She was brought up by Empress Dowager Jiang, so she knew very well how to stabilize her mood.

So, Xu Ruyi smiled slightly, filled up the Lantern Festival and said, "Is this also a new taste?"

Aunt Chang said: "The princess will know once she tastes it."

Xu Ruyi responded and ate the Lantern Festival.

She swallowed without the slightest hesitation.

However, she thought of how she was eliminated from the competition in her previous life.

She had to try to get over this hurdle by herself.

Either die or live.

After eating this Lantern Festival, before Empress Dowager Jiang could ask questions, Xu Ruyi took the initiative to say: "The taste is not bad, it's quite delicious."

Aunt Chang said: "Then I will inform the Imperial Dining Room that I won't do those tricks tomorrow, so that the princess won't get used to it."

Xu Ruyi nodded.

Her first reaction now was to find a place to induce vomiting quickly, but Empress Dowager Jiang did not allow her to leave, and said: "Zhao Rong, help Ai's family to find out which one would be better to wear when going to the Lantern Festival tomorrow?"

"The granddaughter thinks that the brighter clothes for the Lantern Festival will make the emperor's grandmother look younger."

"Hey! It's an old bone, why are you still young? There are many positions here in Aijia, and they will all be handed over to you in the future."

This is the truth. Empress Dowager Jiang wanted Xu Ruyi to continue to fight against the court after her death.

But will she realize that both Xu Ruyi and Xu Mingxiao are very dissatisfied?
Xu Ruyi didn't know the answer, so after returning to the bedroom, she actually went to the latrine to induce vomiting for a long time.

But even though she emptied her stomach, she still felt a little unwell.

But she has no way out now.

The next day is the Lantern Festival.

Everyone had to eat the Lantern Festival at night, and the Empress Dowager Jiang didn't eat much by herself, most of it was Xu Ruyi who shared the burden for her.

After eating the Lantern Festival, it's time to visit the Lantern Festival.

This time they are going out of the palace, and every time they go out of the palace, there will be a lot of battles.

Xu Ruyi asked Concubine Rong to dress up as a maid in advance, and then poisoned the maid in charge of her. Then, at this time, Concubine Rong should have mixed into the team leaving the palace.

And Xu Mingxiao announced to go back to the East Palace to rest after eating the Lantern Festival. He didn't want to come out, and no one said he had to take him with him.

But Xu Ruyi is different, she is Queen Mother Jiang's right-hand man to suppress Xu Yinghong, and every year at the Lantern Festival, she must show off her beauty and suppress Xu Yinghong.

Xu Ruyi greeted the courtiers for a while at the banquet, making the courtiers ignore Xu Mingxiao's departure.

Then, Xu Ruyi said that she would go back to the palace to fetch some calligraphy and paintings.

Empress Dowager Jiang asked suspiciously: "Can't the maids get these little gadgets?"

Xu Ruyi replied: "These things are so delicate! They can't figure it out!"

"Then come back quickly, we should go out to visit the Lantern Festival later."

Xu Ruyi nodded, and immediately returned to her bedroom.

Ordinarily, Xu Mingxiao and Concubine Rong should have joined the team under the leadership of Chao Ming, and the rest can only depend on their luck.

As for Xu Ruyi...

She is going to do a very dangerous thing next!
