Tang Qing's words had a tone of scaring a child, but Mu Yingbao didn't find it funny because, as soon as he finished speaking, Princess Ziyun immediately loosened her hands, stood in place, and looked up from time to time, looking at Tang Qing pitifully.

Tang Qingchao spread his hands towards Mu Yingbao and took a step back. Princess Ziyun immediately followed suit, but when she saw Tang Qingtong's angry eyes, she immediately took a small step back cautiously.

Tang Qing was just about to ask Mu Yingbao to help Princess Ziyun check whether she was really crazy or just pretending to be crazy, but Ziyun said, "Husband, I'm hungry."

The voice may be a little hoarse because of the previous loud shouting.

Oh my god, if Mu Yingbao hadn’t seen it with her own eyes and heard it with her own ears, she really couldn’t have imagined that Princess Ziyun, who was always so arrogant and domineering, could actually have such a pitiful side.

Tang Qing frowned and looked at Mu Yingbao in embarrassment.

"I'm not in a hurry." Mu Yingbao immediately expressed his opinion.

Although I haven't examined her yet, I can't be sure whether Princess Ziyun is pretending.

However, she felt that Princess Ziyun's previous fear did not seem to be pretended.

What on earth was the reason that made such a noble lady behave like this? Was it because of Tang Qing?

With a lot of questions in her mind, Mu Yingbao sat on a chair beside her and watched quietly as Tang Qing ordered the maid to prepare meals for the princess.

"Husband, I don't want to eat the food she brought. It may be poisonous. She wants to poison me." Ziyun begged Tang Qing very carefully, fearing that he would be angry with her.

Tang Qing sighed and spoke again, asking his people to prepare the meal. Ziyun really quieted down immediately.

She stood obediently beside Tang Qing and waited. When Tang Qing moved, she followed him.

The kneeling maid was still walking.

"Come here, I'll apply some medicine for you." Mu Yingbao called to the maid.

The maid immediately crawled to her and wiped away her tears.

"No, don't bother with her, she is a bad person." Ziyun, who had just calmed down, became excited again, pointing at the maid and shouting at Mu Yingbao.

"Is she bad? Can she be worse than you?" Mu Yingbao couldn't help but asked with a smile.

After hearing this, Ziyun looked at Tang Qing and pointed at the maid on the ground. "My husband, she is really a bad person. Can you believe me and take her away?"

Tang Qing was silent for a moment, then asked, "Just take her away? Get someone else to serve you."

Ziyun waved her hands repeatedly, "I don't want any of them. They are not good people. They all want me dead. My husband, I don't want anyone to serve me. I will just follow you, okay?"

This time, Tang Qing did not respond, but turned his head away and did not look at her.

Mu Yingbao had already taken out the anti-inflammatory powder and applied it to the maid.

"Don't cry, your tears will wash away the medicine." Mu Yingbao really felt sympathy for this maid, or perhaps, for the subordinates who served Ziyun.

In her eyes, they are not human beings at all. When she is happy, she will reward them. When she is in a bad mood, they may suffer physical pain or even die.

Being a slave to this princess means living in fear every day, and death is the only relief.

Looking at the scars on the maids' bodies, Mu Yingbao wanted to help them escape from the vicious princess, but this was not an easy task.

These maids were brought by Ziyun from Yunning State and were her private property.

If they escaped, the princess would not let it go. If they were found later, who could guarantee that these maids would not bite back at her in order to save their lives, saying that she forced them to leave the princess?

Mu Yingbao is not afraid of being wronged, but this matter involves the relationship between the two countries.

Even if the truth is not like that, it may be used by people with ulterior motives. A small incident involving a maid may be a reason for others to attack Yan Guo or Hui Ge.

Therefore, we still have to help this maid, but we have to carefully consider how to help her and come up with a complete plan.

This situation was not anticipated, and the subsequent impact was too great, so Mu Yingbao could not make a rash decision immediately.

It’s not that Mu Yingbao is a few years older, more mature, and more careful in his thinking.

This is completely different from what she agreed to do four years ago when she was impulsive and agreed to marry in a stand-in manner.

E

The matter of the replacement bride was only her personal matter, and there was also a dispute between the two big families, the Mu family and the Xue family.

Moreover, she had no favorable impression towards those two major families. Even if she was married off as a substitute, it would be used as a fuss by those with ulterior motives, so she did not have any psychological burden.

But helping Ziyun's maid right now is not an option, as this matter, on a larger scale, concerns the affairs of two countries.

When a war breaks out, it is the civilians and the innocent soldiers who suffer.

While Mu Yingbao was thinking about this, he watched Tang Qing's men bring the food. Princess Ziyun grabbed the food and wolfed it down like a prisoner who had just been released from jail.

How could one tell that this was the princess of the golden branches and jade leaves, Princess Ziyun?

The tableware that the princess used in the past was either made of silver or specially made by the government. The meals that the princess ate were also very exquisite. There were more than a dozen dishes for each meal, and she would eat more bites of each dish depending on her mood at the time. She would not even taste a single bite of some dishes that she did not like after just one look.

But look at it now, he doesn't even need a spoon, which is good. He doesn't grab it directly with his hands, but knows to use a spoon to put it into his mouth.

The food that Tang Qing's men brought was very ordinary, just a big bowl of rice and a big plate of fried cabbage with some oil residue in it.

If this princess is really pretending, it's not easy!

"Eat slowly, don't laugh." When Mu Yingbao was sighing in her heart, she heard Tang Qing's helpless voice. At the same time, he handed over a glass of water. Princess Ziyun immediately took it and drank it. He also reached out and patted her on the back gently.

Mu Yingbao was stunned. Tang Qing, did he feel pity for the princess? Or...

Tang Qing clapped his hands a few times, and suddenly realized that his wife was in the room. He looked over here and saw Mu Yingbao's shocked expression. He quickly withdrew his hands and explained in a panic, "Madam, don't think too much. It's not what you think. I just think that it's not appropriate for her to die here, so..."

Mu Yingbao pricked up her ears and listened carefully, but Tang Qing himself felt that his reason didn't seem to be very tenable, so he couldn't continue! Seeing Mu Yingbao's astonished expression, he quickly withdrew his hand and explained in a panic; "Madam, don't think too much, it's not what you think, I just think that it's not appropriate for her to die here, so..."

Mu Yingbao pricked up his ears and listened carefully, but Tang Qing himself felt that the reason did not seem to be very tenable, and he could not continue!

Seeing Tang Qing's embarrassed look, Mu Yingbao felt a little sorry; "It's okay, it's okay, I understand, I understand, really."

In this way, Tang Qing's expression eased a little.

At this time, Ziyun finally finished eating and put down the empty bowl in his arms. Mu Yingbao looked at the plate and found that there was not even a drop of soup left.

"Madam, how about I have someone pick it up for her and then examine it?" Tang Qing looked at Ziyun, who was in a slovenly outfit, and then looked at Madam, who was clean and refreshed, and asked with some embarrassment...
