Chapter 217

At first, Chu Feiyan wasn't sure if the empress had tampered with the tea, but after observing the look of the palace maid just now, she was sure that there was something wrong with the cup of tea.

Because from the time she picked up the teacup to putting it down, it could be seen that the palace maid's face alternated with joy and disappointment.It was obvious that the palace maid was looking forward to her drinking this cup of tea.

As for why?Haha, it must be what the Empress Dowager meant.

Chu Feiyan squinted at the back of the bead curtain, she didn't think the Empress would dare to poison the tea to murder her.On the big day of worshiping the ancestors of the royal family of the Eastern Liao Kingdom, the empress first brought all the female relatives to admire the plum blossoms, and then sent her personal nurse to summon her alone in front of people.

If she confessed her life to Fengqi Palace in the middle palace, the empress would definitely be unable to argue with it.Since the tea is non-toxic, there is only one possibility left - being drugged.

As for what kind of medicine it was, Chu Feiyan didn't know!
She inadvertently tugged at the collar at the back of her neck with her hands, and then sighed in a seemingly unintentional way: "This temple is really hot!"

"That's right! The emperor loves the empress so much that he specifically asked to burn the earth dragon in our palace to keep it warm." The old mother and maidservant who stood aside agreed and nodded, but did not pull Chu Feiyan by the collar Take your actions to heart.

After a while, the bead curtains between the inner hall and outer hall of Fengxi Hall made a crisp collision sound.

Chu Feiyan followed the sound and saw the empress walking out in a begonia red dress.

"Your servant has met the empress, and the empress is blessed and safe!" Chu Feiyan bowed and saluted with just the right amount of courtesy.

The empress glanced at Chu Feiyan, and a gentle smile appeared on her lips, "Princess Feiyan, you are welcome, sit down."

Chu Feiyan sat down at the table as he said, acting neither humble nor overbearing, very calm.

Seeing that the tea in front of Chu Feiyan hadn't touched a sip, the queen's eyes flickered slightly.

She took the cup by herself, poured a cup of tea for herself, and then raised her hand to Chu Feiyan, "That day in the paddock, I was so anxious that I couldn't speak freely. Thinking about it afterwards, I really feel ashamed of you. Come on, Ben Gong replaced wine with tea, and apologized to you!"

Chu Feiyan secretly sneered in her heart, this Empress is really a woman who will never give up until she achieves her goal.In order to coax her to drink this cup of tricky tea, he didn't hesitate to demean himself and kept saying that he would apologize to her.

If she doesn't drink the cup of tea in front of her, she must be disrespecting the empress.To put it bluntly, it would be disrespectful!

In a blink of an eye, Chu Feiyan had already picked up the teacup in front of him, pretending to be flattered, and responded: "Empress Empress, don't say that, I can't bear it. I was also scared by those masters that day." It's time to talk nonsense. The empress doesn't care about the ministers, that's the minister's blessing. If you are ashamed, it should be the ministers who feel ashamed!"

The empress didn't want to pretend to be a snake with Chu Feiyan, she took the initiative to touch Chu Feiyan's teacup, and said with a smile: "Well, after drinking this cup of tea, we will never talk about that day anymore, Just let that go."

The voice fell, and before Chu Feiyan could answer, the Empress raised her head and finished.

Chu Feiyan was left holding the cup, caught in a dilemma whether to drink or not.

The empress put down the teacup, looked up, and saw that Chu Feiyan was still holding the teacup, so she frowned feigning displeasure, "Princess Feiyan, why don't you drink it? Could it be that you are still blaming me in your heart? "

"No, Empress Empress, that's not what I mean by courtiers!" Chu Feiyan hurriedly defended, holding the cup in one hand and anxiously waving the other hand.

And thanks to her waving her hand, the plate of fruit on the table was knocked over by her 'accidentally' without any warning.

For a moment, the fruit on the plate fell to the ground, and Chu Feiyan was so startled that he hurriedly put down the teacup in his hand, stood up and apologized to the empress.

"Empress, my daughter didn't do it on purpose, my daughter accidentally missed it!" Chu Feiyan was nervous and apologized incoherently.

The empress frowned and glanced at the ground.The plate of red apples was scattered all over the place.

However, this is not important, the important thing is... Chu Feiyan's cup of tea was still placed on the table, without being dropped or spilled, that's enough!

"Forget it, you didn't do it on purpose, how could I blame you for just a plate of fruit?" The empress smiled lightly, as if she really didn't care that Chu Feiyan knocked over the fruit plate.

She turned her head and ordered to the maidservants who were waiting on the side: "You guys pick up the fruits on the ground, wash them, share them and eat them!"

After receiving the order, the nanny and the palace maid responded in unison, and then bent down and squatted on the ground to pick up apples.

The empress looked up at Chu Feiyan, and was thinking about how to urge her to drink the cup of tea with added ingredients, but she saw that Chu Feiyan had already raised the cup on his own initiative, and with his long sleeves behind him, he drank a cup of tea boldly 'It's clean.

"It's really good tea!" Chu Feiyan put down the teacup, wiped the corners of her lips with a brocade handkerchief, and praised full of praise.

Seeing that there was nothing in the teacup, the Empress Empress saw a calculating light in her eyes.

She raised the corners of her lips and said with a weird smile: "That's natural! This is a high-quality Dahongpao, even the Queen Mother can't drink it."

These words meant to show off, Chu Feiyan heard it, and hypocritically praised the blessing of the empress.

The empress patiently chatted with Chu Feiyan about trivial matters, while the nurse and maid picked up the apples, put them on a plate, and a little maid brought them out to wash.

While Chu Feiyan was dealing with the empress's unnutritious topic, he secretly took a look at the empress's expression. Seeing the empress looking at her suspiciously, a faint smile curled up on the corner of Chu Feiyan's lips.

The next moment, she tugged at her collar, and sighed in a low voice: "The ground dragon in this temple is too hot, people who are hot can feel dizzy, it's really uncomfortable!"

Hearing this, Empress Empress's eyes lit up, "Master Feiyan feels dizzy and uncomfortable, does she feel hot all over? Would you like me to find an imperial physician to show you?"

Chu Feiyan saw the glowing reaction in the empress's eyes, and there was some care in his heart.

She could only be sure that the tea was not poison, but she didn't know whether it was sweat medicine or love potion.At this moment, she babbled a few nonsense words, and the Empress had an expression of joy that she had been tricked, so it can be seen that... the tea should have been added with both kinds of medicine.

Hehe, the dignified empress used such indecent tricks, it was really stupid and made people feel distressed!
Taking a deep breath, Chu Feiyan pretended to be uncomfortable and shook his head, "No need! Empress Lao is concerned, it's okay. It might be all right if I go out to get some air."

While she was speaking, she stood up and prepared to say goodbye.

"Oh!" But just as she made a move, she uncontrollably fell to the ground.

"Oh my god! Princess Feiyan, what's wrong with you?" The empress exclaimed, the light in her eyes became brighter.

While calling out worriedly, she urged the nanny and the maidservants to check it out.

The old mother stepped forward to help Chu Feiyan up, and found that the other person's face was flushed, his eyes were closed, and he had fainted.

"Mother, Princess Feiyan has passed out!" The old mama reported truthfully...
