After the divorce, the four big guys became my servants

Chapter 58: Was it Meng Changning who did it?

Meng Zhaoge looked in the direction of the voice, searched around, and finally met Liu Luoshu's anxious gaze.

It turned out to be the Princess.

Princess... could it be that she is still deeply in love with Yuwen Qi like in her previous life?

On the other side, the guards brought torches and finally drove away the bees.

Meng Zhaoge could no longer think about it and quickly reacted. He rushed forward in panic and supported Yuwen Qi who was curled up on the ground.

"My Lord, please don't scare me!"

She cried like a good wife worried about her husband: "My Lord? My Lord! If anything happens to you, how will I live?"

"My Lord——"

"Shut up." A red and swollen hand grabbed the corner of her clothes: "The king is not dead yet."

"..."

Meng Zhaoge held back a few tears, "You scared me to death."

Emperor Chu on the high platform frowned tightly and ordered: "Send King Jing to Wan'an Palace quickly, and call the imperial physician!"

However, at this moment, Concubine Liu's expression suddenly changed, "Your Majesty, that dancer..."

When Emperor Chu heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he had a bad feeling. He immediately looked away at the Hu Xuan dancer not far away.

I saw that the dancer's originally delicate and beautiful face was covered with several large lumps from being stung.

Emperor Chu's eyes turned dark.

"Send it together!"

After Yuwen Qi and the dancer were taken away, he slammed the table in anger.

In broad daylight, his birthday party was ruined.

His son and his new favorite were stung by bees like that!

Emperor Chu's brows were sharp, and he ordered angrily: "How can this be! Everyone else stay where you are. Check for me, find out what's going on!"

The guard commander Gao De received the order and quickly led his men to blockade the entire Wolong Terrace.

For a time, people panic.

Gao De had worked in the palace for many years. He had keen observation skills and quickly recalled the whole incident.

There have never been any beehives around Wolongtai. Those bees suddenly rushed over as if they heard a command. There must be something wrong.

It seems that the only abnormality is that the bees are only coming for His Royal Highness Prince Jing...

He immediately walked to Yuwen Qi's table and noticed the sweet potato and yam cake. After picking it up, he could see a light layer of yellow powder on it.

So, he immediately reported back: "Your Majesty! Someone has put something in this dessert!"

"It must be nectar and pollen, so the bees only come to His Royal Highness the King of Jing. Your Majesty! Should we search..."

"Investigate!" Emperor Chu was furious. "How dare you attack my son in front of me and all the civil and military officials! Investigate for me. If you don't find out, I will kill you!"

Gao De immediately gave a thrilling order: "Come here, guards search the men, maids search the women, quick!"

Everyone at the banquet was suddenly struck by misfortune.

Each of them has a noble status, yet they have to be searched by guards and palace maids in public!

But if anyone is to be blamed, it can only be blamed on the person who was so bold as to attack at His Majesty's birthday banquet.

Meng Zhaoge stood quietly where she was, and the palace maids soon searched her.

She cooperated very well and opened her arms to let the palace maid search her body.

Some eyes were always fixed on Meng Zhaoge.

Meng Changning was confident, with a slight smile on his lips.

She had asked Ah Sheng to put the powder in the sachet that Meng Zhaoge usually wore, and just now, she also saw that Meng Zhaoge was indeed wearing the sachet today.

As long as they could find powder on Meng Zhaoge, one thing would be confirmed - Princess Jing murdered her husband.

At that time, the prince could take the opportunity to divorce his wife, and neither His Majesty nor Concubine Lan would have any reason to stop him.

After all, who can keep a vicious woman around?

But at this moment, the palace maid who was searching Meng Zhaoge suddenly stopped.

Meng Changning's heart was in his throat, hoping that the palace maid could expose Meng Zhaoge.

However, the next moment, the palace maid bowed to Meng Zhaoge, and then walked to Princess Qing who was sitting at the next table.

All was calm.

And Meng Zhaoge actually raised his eyes and looked in her direction provocatively.

Haha, you are stupid.

Your plan has been seen through!!!

Meng Changning's scalp suddenly exploded.

How could this happen? Meng Zhaoge has nothing on him?

While she was daydreaming, another palace maid came up to her.

"Girl, please stand up a little."

Meng Changning's mind was in a mess and she stood out in a daze.

How could this happen? Didn't Meng Zhaoge wear the sachet?

Or had she already discovered the powder inside?

Meng Changning couldn't figure it out.

At this moment, the palace maid in front of her suddenly moved close to her face for some unknown reason.

That hairpin...was dropping gold powder just now?

"What are you doing!" Meng Changning reacted strongly and immediately took a step back.

Because of this violent movement, the gold hairpin in her hair fell to the ground.

"How dare you!" Meng Changning was disgusted and scolded her: "What did you do? My hairpin fell off, you..."

But the palace maid suddenly bent down and picked up the hairpin.

The red jade on the hairpin had fallen off, and the palace maid was surprised to find that there was a small hole underneath the red jade.

She placed the small hole against her palm and poured it out.

A golden powder was poured out!

Meng Changning was shocked and opened his mouth wide, unable to utter a word for a long time.

The maid grabbed the golden hairpin and turned around to shout, "Master Gao!"

Gao De rushed over upon hearing the sound, and just one glance at the golden hairpin in the palace maid's hand made him understand.

His thunderous gaze swept across Meng Changning's pale face, and then he shouted sternly: "Catch him!"

"Yes!"

Two guards stepped forward and directly arrested Meng Changning, wanting to take her before Emperor Chu.

Meng Changning was so scared that she screamed: "Dad! Mom!"

Meng Qingyun and Madam Meng, who were standing by, did not react until then. They were sweating profusely and trying to excuse themselves: "It must be a misunderstanding, Mr. Gao..."

Gao De turned around and said, "Whether it is a misunderstanding or not, we will check it out. General Meng, please don't act on impulse and anger His Majesty."

The Meng couple dared not say anything more.

Meng Changning was brought before Emperor Chu. She was so frightened that she didn't know what to do and allowed the guards to force her to kneel down.

Gao De reported back, "Your Majesty, in the hairpin of Miss Meng of General Mingxi's mansion, we found the same nectar powder as the one in His Royal Highness Prince Jing's heart."

Emperor Chu narrowed his eyes: "Oh? Meng family?"

He sneered: "As a sister, are you trying to murder your own brother-in-law? This really surprises me."

Meng Changning, who was kneeling on the ground, cried out: "I am innocent. I have never tried to murder His Royal Highness the King of Jing. Someone is wrongly accusing me!"

"Then tell me, who wronged you?"

"Yes..." Meng Changning hesitated and glanced secretly in the direction of Liu Luoshu.

However, when she saw this, she felt as if struck by lightning.

The face of the person standing behind Liu Luoshu looked particularly familiar.
