Then Meixiang continued, "That person said that He Zizhong was deliberately killed by the young marquis. That person also said that He Zizhong could have survived, but the young marquis took advantage of the situation and deliberately let He Zizhong eat the bowl of poisoned dumplings to kill him.

"Madam, is this true?"

Rong Enqing subconsciously shook his head and denied it: "No. This is all an accident! How could Yun Ye know that the dumplings were poisonous?"

If Yun Ye knew, he would not have failed to inform her and Zhang Shi. Unless he wanted to watch her and Zhang Shi die!

If Yun Ye knew, how could he deliberately let He Zizhong eat that bowl of dumplings?

Moreover, if he knew in advance that the dumplings were poisonous, why would he be so frightened after He Zizhong was poisoned to death?

But, is it possible that he really knows something? Just like that person said, he could use the opponent's trick to get rid of the annoying He Zizhong and test her reaction at the same time?

No! Yun Ye is only nine years old, still a child! How could he be so scheming? And how could he have acting skills comparable to an Oscar winner?

"That's good." Meixiang breathed a sigh of relief, her tone a little scared, "I was really afraid that things were just as that person said, and that the young marquis really knew everything in advance. So I was always worried about the safety of the Madam. I thought too much and scared myself. I tripped and that caused the miscarriage to break, leading to a premature birth."

After hearing Meixiang's words, Rong Enqing didn't feel relaxed at all. Instead, he felt as if a huge rock was pressing down on him, heavy.

She had seen all the changes in Yun Ye in the past year. But was Yun Ye really so cold-blooded that he would watch her and Zhang Shi die without caring? Rong Enqing didn't think so.

However, she should really pay more attention to Yun Ye's personality change.

Gathering his thoughts, Rong Enqing asked, "Who is the person who came to tell you the message? Do you know him?"

Meixiang shook her head, "I don't know him. But he was carrying He Zizhong's keepsake. After he left, I wanted to follow him to see which direction he went, but I wasn't paying attention and fell, and then I gave birth prematurely."

"Then, what does that person look like? Do you still remember?" Rong Enqing continued to ask.

Meixiang thought about it and still shook her head, "I don't remember. His height, appearance, and clothes seemed very ordinary, without any special features. I can't remember them in the blink of an eye. It's strange, I clearly talked to him for a long time, but I just can't remember what he looks like. It's really strange."

Seeing Meixiang frowning and thinking, unable to figure out the reason for a long time, Rong Enqing didn't want to make things difficult for her. He sighed and said, "Forget it, don't think about it. I can guess where this person came from." He was simply sent by Butler Old Li.

However, Rong Enqing did not intend to tell Meixiang. Because it was useless to tell her. Knowing more would be a burden to Meixiang.

So he changed the subject and said, "He Zizhong is dead, so you don't have to monitor him anymore. How are you going to live in the future? Do you have any plans?"

Mei Xiang smiled bitterly and shook her head, "It happened suddenly, I haven't thought about it yet."

Rong Enqing pondered for a while and suggested: "If possible, after He Zizhong is buried, you can take your two children to live in a place where no one knows you."

Meixiang looked at Rong Enqing in surprise, "Madam, do you want me to leave the capital?"

"The capital is a place of trouble. For the future of you and your child, it's best to stay away from the capital. Don't tell anyone where you are going. After you settle down, don't mention anyone or anything in the capital to others."

Rong Enqing reached out and touched Meixiang's hair, and said bitterly: "You are a smart child. As long as you stay away from Shun'an Marquis Mansion and cut off everything in the past, you and the children will be able to live a peaceful life in the future."

Meixiang's eyes were filled with tears. She held Rong Enqing's hand tightly and asked in a suppressed tone: "Madam, will you be okay? Will the Marquis' Mansion be okay too?"

She was not a fool, she knew that something was wrong in the Marquis' Mansion. From the time He Zizhong approached her and wanted to get information about the Madam from her, to the time when the young Marquis asked her to marry He Zizhong, to the time when He Zizhong died... she knew that there were many unknown secrets in the Marquis' Mansion.

However, she didn't care about these things. She only cared about the situation of the lady. She just hoped that the lady could live a long and healthy life.

She remembered that the old lady's original wish was just to live a long life, and she also remembered that she just wanted to live a peaceful life. However, reality forced the old lady to fall into the quagmire step by step.

Rong Enqing smiled bitterly, "Don't worry about me. I'll be fine. When the affairs of the Marquis' Mansion are settled in the future, I will take you back to Beijing."

At this point, Rong Enqing suddenly felt sad and said jokingly, "Maybe one day in the future, I will be penniless and I will have to rely on you to survive."

Thinking of this, Rong Enqing felt that Meixiang might also be a way out.

So he made up his mind to wait until Meixiang left Beijing and then ask Nanshan to secretly send some money and belongings over.

When we left Meixiang, it was already 3 p.m.

As soon as I returned home, Madam Gong came up to me with a complicated expression, "Madam, the emperor has summoned you to the palace tomorrow."

"What?" Rong Enqing was stunned, thinking he had heard wrongly.

Madam Gong helped Rong Enqing into the house and dismissed all the servants except Xiu Zhang. Then she knelt down in front of Rong Enqing and said in a complicated tone, "Please forgive me, Madam. I have reported what happened last night early in the morning."

Rong En had expected this early in the morning, so he was not surprised. "And then? How did His Majesty react?"

Nanny Gong looked at Rong Enqing worriedly, and then said, "I heard that the emperor was furious and smashed his brush. He immediately sent a message, asking you to enter the palace after the morning court tomorrow."

Rong Enqing's heart skipped a beat. What was this all about? Was it to lynch Jiang and cripple her? Or was it to privately deal with the dozen or so servants? Or was it because he was imprisoning and preparing to secretly kill Yun Hao?

Rong Enqing was just wondering when he heard Nanny Gong whisper, "I have tried to find out what the people above me are saying. It is said that His Majesty is angry because of Yun."

Sure enough, it was for Yun Hao!

Rong Enqing understood.

She and Shun'an Marquis' Mansion are pawns, and so is Yun Hao.

Judging from the current situation, Yun Hao seems to play a more important role than her.

After all, she had always been a passive participant. But Yun Hao had been actively contacting the rebellious forces. Now he had even crossed paths with the Yang Family and the Zhenguo Mansion.

I’m afraid that Emperor Taihe will not let her kill Yun Hao easily.

Thinking of this, Rong Enqing could no longer care about so many things, and quickly ordered Madam Gong: "Madam Gong, where is the poison that Yun Shi brought back from Jiang? It should not be used up, right? Go and get it for me immediately."

Madam Gong was startled, then her face changed drastically, and she asked in horror: "Madam, what are you going to do?"

Rong Enqing's face darkened, and he said in a sonorous voice: "Poison Yun Hao!"
