Chapter 13

The autumn wind swept by, and the fallen leaves were falling. Before you knew it, it was late autumn. Ying Qinyue sat quietly by the window, watching the maids in the yard sweeping the fallen leaves.

"Princess, let me push you out for a walk." Wan Zhu came to her side at some point, and seeing the loneliness in her eyes, she couldn't help feeling a little distressed.

She seldom goes out of Solan Garden, every wife has her own residence, except Xinli's Li Garden, she has never set foot there, "Wanzhu, where are you taking me?"

"I heard from Aunt Bing that the sweet-scented osmanthus flowers in the back mountain are almost withered. If we don't pick them for a few days, they will be gone. Two days ago, Aunt Bing and I learned how to make osmanthus cake. Aunt Bing often said that the princess is your favorite to eat her." I made pastries, but she is busy now, so I can’t help you make them every day. Let me make some for you to taste. She also told me to take you to the back mountain when I have time. Now it seems that only sweet-scented osmanthus cakes can be made By the way, Wangfei, don't you want to go and see?" The Aunt Bing in Wan Zhu's mouth is the wet nurse.

"Alright, I really haven't been to Houshan, so let's go for a walk."

The back mountain is quiet and secluded, but it is a good place to relax.The two of them were still on the road, and they already smelled the strong fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus. Wanzhu pushed her through the forest, the autumn wind swept by, the leaves fluttered and fell, and it was very beautiful like the rain of leaves.

Suddenly, Ying Qinyue's eyes fixed on the green pavilion in the forest not far away. Xinli stood in the pavilion, she was facing herself, and a woman dressed as a maid in front of her knelt tremblingly on the ground, as if she was begged her bitterly.

She was obviously indifferent, she didn't know if she was bored or not, she raised her foot and kicked the woman on the ground resentfully.Ying Qinyue's expression moved slightly, and she looked at the maid on the ground in amazement, it was Ruyan!

What is the relationship between Xinli and Ruyan?Why did she treat Ruyan like this? Ying Qinyue looked back at Wan Zhu who was walking farther and farther, until she could no longer see her figure, then she slid the wheelchair to the side of a big tree, and put her feet on the ground , The body actually left the wheelchair and stood up!
In fact, not long ago, she was able to move around freely. No one knew about this. She didn't want to be the target of public criticism at this time, so she continued to pretend.

Quietly approaching Cuiting, she vaguely heard the conversation coming from ahead:
"...The medicine is a strange poison. No matter how capable she is, she will be doomed. You put it into the teacup she usually drinks."

"Third Madam, this servant really doesn't dare, the princess is already pitiful enough, please don't hurt her anymore!" Ruyan begged bitterly.

Xin Li showed a ferocious face, "She is pitiful? Haha... It seems that he is not pitiful. Well, if you don't want to do it, someone else will do it. Then she won't be as lucky as last time, and you , I have to wait to collect his and her corpses. This woman Ying Qinyue is really good at disguising, hmph, if it weren't for her identity to be a little intimidating to Yun Mi, I wouldn't even give her the chance for half a year!"

Ruyan turned pale with shock, "No, Third Madam, I, I will do it, I will do it!"

"Hahaha..., that's right, but don't use any more tricks, or he will be the one who will suffer. When you give her the medicine, I will let you and him go far away." Xinli sneered , dropped a pack of powder and walked away.

There was a trace of despair in Ruyan's eyes, she fell to the ground powerlessly, and murmured in a daze, "Princess, I'm sorry for you. I can't lose him, I can't..."

"Huh? I didn't expect it to have a light fragrance. I thought it would be colorless and tasteless, but it can be highly poisonous when mixed with sweet-scented osmanthus. In addition to rare herbs such as Feiyan grass, it is also mixed with many precious medicinal materials. Xinli is truly generous, killing someone is so troublesome."

A soft voice sounded beside her ears, and Ruyan raised her head upon hearing the sound, and stared in surprise at the stunning girl in front of her, dressed in white plain clothes and the rain falling in the forest, like a fairy in the forest.Ying Qinyue was holding the medicine powder that Xinli had just thrown in front of her, and said with a smile.

"Prince, Concubine! How did you come here?" Ruyan realized that the woman in front of her was standing, could she say, "Your legs—"

How is it possible, didn't the doctor say that the princess might be permanently disabled?

"Hehe, it's ready. Ruyan, can I tell you about you now?" She was not in a hurry, she found a seat and sat down with a calm expression on her face, "Oh, I almost forgot to tell you, just now I heard what you and Xinli said."

She had a flat face, as if it had nothing to do with her.Ru Yan seduced her body, braced herself and said: "Princess, Ru Yan knows that I am not enough to die a few times, you can punish me however you want, I have done too many things that I am sorry to you."

"I didn't say I wanted you to die, I just didn't expect that Xinli and you colluded to kill me when I fell into the lotus pond last time. Tell me, now I just want to know the truth, what's the secret between you and Xinli Secret, and why did she want to kill me?"

"I really don't know. Ever since she found out that the maids in Sulan Garden were in awe of you, she became vigilant. She used your identity to catch up with Yunmi. Today, she invited me to Houshan, you also know what happened later, she wants to attack you." Ruyan's face turned paler.

Ying Qinyue threw the medicine powder to her, "Well, she is worried that if I have power in the manor, once I secure the position of princess, I will pose a threat to her. Then who is he that Xin Li is talking about?"

When Ruyan heard this, tears rolled down her face like beans, "I have been engaged to him since childhood, but there was an accident in my family. I was sold into the palace and became a palace maid. I stayed there for six or seven years. Later, he found out that I was married to you." When you marry into the palace, you come to look for me, but you don't want to be arrested by the third lady and use him to threaten me, princess, I—"

Narrowing her eyes slightly, Ying Qinyue stopped talking, Ruyan felt uneasy, and after a long time, she opened her mouth and said, "Ruyan, you just do what Xinli said, you cooperate with me in a play, and I help you rescue He, and will let you leave the palace."
