After her true feelings were exposed, the real princess was favored by the whole world

Chapter 75: Being cruel enough to yourself

Seeing Xiaomi's reaction, Shen Qingtang reacted quickly.

"Xiao Mi, is this meat inedible?"

"Meow!" Xiaomi nodded her little head, yes, you can't eat it!

"Is this meat poisonous?" Shen Qingtang pointed to several other dishes, "Xiao Mi, go and see if all those dishes are poisonous?"

Xiaomi sniffed the plate of green vegetables next to her.

"Meow!" is poisonous!
It sniffed the large bowl of broth again.

"Meow!" is poisonous!
Xiaomi smelled all the remaining dishes.

"Meow meow meow meow meow.!!!" You can't eat them all!

"Meow!" Master, someone wants to harm you!
Lu Jiu'an opened his eyes wide, his palms were slightly sweaty, and he felt scared. He was so careless that he didn't find out in advance that the food was poisonous.

"Fourth Miss, I will ask someone to take these dishes away right now."

He still wants to investigate the situation and find out who is trying to harm the fourth princess!

"Wait." Shen Qingtang raised her hand to stop Lu Jiu'an. She stared at the dishes with a slight glint in her eyes.

[This dish was served to my room. The person who poisoned it didn't know that I would let Lu Jiu'an dine with me, so it was specially brought to me. 】

[And every dish is poisonous. It seems that the person wants to kill me. 】

Shen Qingtang put down his chopsticks and waved to Xiaomi. Xiaomi walked over and got into Shen Qingtang's arms.

[I have been away from the palace for more than a month and have never encountered such a situation. 】

Shen Qingtang raised his eyes and glanced at Lu Jiu'an.

[After meeting them today, something like this happened. 】

[But Lu Jiuan will definitely not poison me. 】

For some reason, Shen Qingtang has an inexplicable trust in Lu Jiu'an.

Hearing these words, Lu Jiu'an felt sweet. She didn't expect the fourth princess to trust him so much.

But the fourth princess's analysis was very reasonable. Could it be someone around him did it?
[There were five guards who came with Lu Jiu'an today, and the person who poisoned him was most likely among the five of them. 】

【How many are there? 】

"Who did the other five guards work for before?"

Lu Jiu'an answered truthfully: "They are all people close to the master."

Shen Qingtang raised his eyebrows.

[People around Father? Although that old man is biased and stupid, he probably won't kill me. 】

[If he wanted to kill me, there was no need to bring me into the palace in the first place. He could just kill me outside. Besides, I had quarreled with him so many times in the palace, except for that time when he was so angry. Except for hitting me once, he didn't try to kill me the rest of the time. 】

[So the possibility that my father sent people all the way to find me just to get rid of me is very low. It can only be that some of the guards are still working for others. 】

[The only people who have access to my father's bodyguards are my mother, the first emperor brother, the second emperor brother and Shen Muxin. No matter before or now, no matter how disobedient I am, those unscrupulous family members have never thought of killing me. The only person who can do this is Shen Muxin. 】

[I know, Shen Muxin doesn’t want me to come back to the palace. She wants me to die outside the palace like this, but I didn’t expect that she would actually win over the people around my father. 】

【If you kill green tea, you know it will harm me! Wait until I get back and teach you a lesson! 】

"This is our first time in this county, and we are not familiar with the place. It is impossible for someone to attack me for no reason, so I suspect that the person who poisoned me is one of the five of them." Lu Jiu'an nodded. Agreed with Shen Qingtang's words.

Lu Jiu'an secretly clenched his fists, suppressing the anger in his heart. Even if those guards were people around the emperor, he would not allow those people to do anything to harm the fourth princess.

"Fourth Miss, why don't we use the trick to lure out the murderer? If he didn't succeed this time, he will definitely do it again in the future."

"That's what I meant." Shen Qingtang smiled.

Shen Qingtang took out a poison from the storage ring. The poison will not kill people, but it will make people very weak.

"Fourth Miss, what is this?" Lu Jiu'an felt a little worried.

"Poison." Shen Qingtang said calmly.

Lu Jiu'an looked at her in shock when she heard this.

What? Is this poison? !
Seeing that Shen Qingtang was about to eat, Lu Jiu'an panicked and quickly stopped her: "Fourth Miss, no."

"We just need to pretend, there's no need to actually eat it."

Even if the poison doesn't hurt people's lives, it can still damage the body.

The corners of Shen Qingtang's lips curled up slightly, revealing a disturbing madness in that smile.

"I have to be really sick for the murderer to believe that I have been poisoned." Her eyes flashed with a strange light, "Otherwise, how could the murderer show up so easily?"

"But..." Lu Jiu'an felt heartbroken. The fourth princess was too cruel to her. Is it necessary to pay such a big price?

"If we fail this time, it won't be so easy to catch the murderer next time. I don't want to be surrounded by someone who wants to harm me."

Shen Qingtang tilted his head and looked at Lu Jiu'an, winked at him, and said sweetly: "Even if all of them put together, they are no match for you, you will protect me, right?"

"I am responsible for luring the murderer out, and you are responsible for catching the murderer. How about it? Can you do it?"

Lu Jiu'an also understands this truth. The more truthful it is, the more the murderer will reveal his flaws.

But he didn't want to see the fourth princess getting sick. Lu Jiu'an then thought about it, what if the murderer found out that the fourth princess was pretending to be sick and they failed to catch the murderer.

Maybe the murderer will make other more dangerous moves in the future.

"Okay, I'll listen to Miss Fourth." Lu Jiu'an nodded with difficulty.

He looked at Shen Qingtang seriously and assured her: "Don't worry, Fourth Miss, my subordinates will definitely protect you."

"Well, I believe you."

Shen Qingtang opened his mouth and swallowed the poison without hesitation.

After a while, Shen Qingtang's body began to tremble, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, his face gradually turned pale, and his beautiful brows were wrinkled in pain.

She raised her arms slightly and said weakly: "Hel me onto the bed."

"it is good."

Lu Jiu'an immediately stood up and held Shen Qingtang's arm to help her to the bed, and covered her with a quilt gently.

Seeing Shen Qingtang's weak appearance at this moment, Lu Jiu'an's heart clenched, and her eyes were filled with distress.

Lu Jiu'an secretly swore in his heart that he must get rid of the murderer!

Lu Jiu'an couldn't see Shen Qingtang feeling uncomfortable, so he immediately ran to other rooms and called the five guards over.

"The fourth lady just took a small bite of the food here and started to feel uncomfortable. I suspect that someone poisoned the food."
