Chapter 117
Yun Dai pulled her up, told her to lie down, and said: "You are from the kitchen, logic, I have no right to take you away at will. But... wait, I will think of a way."
She also took pity on Hongdou.
It is said that beauty is unlucky, Hongdou just wants to live in peace, and she is treated like this just because of her good looks. Now that she has ruined her appearance and offended the queen and the third prince, it is not safe to stay in the kitchen.
Besides, Hongdou took the risk to give her food when she was suffering. She was very moved by this kind of friendship.
Yundai left Yuzhu to take care of Hongdou, and she went to find Zhao Yuanjing by herself.
Zhao Yuanjing has always been busy.
He is the crown prince, besides learning martial arts from the grand master and grand master every day, he also has to go to the court to do errands.
Most of the time, he was not in the East Palace.
She didn't see Zhao Yuanjing until the next afternoon.
There was an ice bucket in the room, it was cool, Zhao Yuanjing was wearing a moon white thin shirt, and was sitting and drinking medicine, Yun Dai, who smelled like medicine, didn't want to get close.
She wanted to ask him what kind of medicine he was drinking, but seeing his indifferent expression of not getting close to strangers, she knew that if she asked, she would only be teased by him, so she temporarily gave up her plan and thanked him directly.
"Thank you Your Highness for saving Hongdou's life." Yun Dai curtsied and said.
Zhao Yuanjing looked up at her from the bowl: "A thank you is enough?"
"What request does Your Highness have?"
"Come here and give me a shoulder squeeze." He put down the bowl, rinsed his mouth with water, and said casually.
"Yes." Yun Dai walked over obediently, walked around behind him, and reached out to pinch his shoulder.
Zhao Yuanjing casually picked up the book next to him and flipped through it, and said, "This time, are you thanking me sincerely?"
"Yes."
"So, you won't put anything in Ben Gong's dishes in the future?" He said.
Yun Dai shook her hand.
What does this guy say?
Zhao Yuanjing looked at the book and said lightly: "Do you really think that no one will know if you put something in the meal of the prince of the current dynasty? I really don't know how to write dead words."
The woman behind her was silent.
He glanced back at her and said, "You have the guts to do it, but now you're so frightened?"
Yun Dai came back to her senses, smiled wryly and said, "I'm not afraid, I just wonder how Your Highness knows."
"This, you don't need to know."
"Then Your Highness..."
"I didn't eat it." Zhao Yuanjing said directly, "Of course I won't eat the dish you put something in. As for who gave it to you, guess what?"
Yun Dai didn't want to guess.
She has only one thought now, the prince is too dark.
Although there was horse urine in the dish, he didn't eat it.
But for the soup with herbs, Yun Dai saw him drink it with her own eyes.
Does he not care about this herb, or does he not know it at all?
If he didn't say anything, Yun Dai wouldn't seek death and take the initiative to ask.
"Continue." Zhao Yuanjing said.
Yun Dai had no choice but to continue pinching.
Zhao Yuanjing turned the pages of the book and asked, "I'm a little curious, why did you put that thing in the dish?"
"The slave is guilty."
"I'm asking you why." Although his tone was cold, he was very calm, and there was no sign of anger.
"Because..." Yun Dai paused, but said calmly, "Because of the matter in the Duke's Mansion... I thought... I thought that you, Your Highness, are the same person as the Third Prince."
Zhao Yuanjing stopped turning the pages of the book.
"At that time, it was my fault." He said softly.
Perhaps because his back was facing her, and he didn't have to see the expression on her face, Zhao Yuanjing didn't feel burdened when he said it.
