The princess only wants to get rich and support her family

The maple leaf bracelet is an ornament that A Niang has carried with her for many years, and Hu Luanfei has seen it since he was a child.

Not to mention anything else, Xuanyuan Yuchuan will be angry with anyone who dares to take advantage of this bracelet.

The Queen Mother sent someone to bring more exquisite and expensive jewelry suitable for men to wear, and wanted Xuanyuan Yuchuan to take off the maple leaf bracelet.

Hu Luanfei was very surprised. "The jewelry I gave you is for the prince to wear if he likes it. Why force him to take it off?"

The Queen Mother disliked Hu Luanfei to begin with, and she scolded him, "My family affairs have nothing to do with Princess Zhan."

After saying that, he ordered the old nanny beside him to come over.

Xuanyuan Yuchuan's face was visibly dark.

Seeing this, the old nanny broke out in a cold sweat, but she had no choice but to obey the Queen Mother's order and said softly, "My Lord, I am following the Queen Mother's order to take off your bracelet..."

As soon as the old nanny stretched out her hand, she heard wailing in the hall and blood splattered three feet away. An arm flew through the air and landed firmly on the Queen Mother's desk, staining the floor with blood.

The Queen Mother's eyes widened in an instant, she had a myocardial infarction, and fell straight to the ground with her body stiff.

The sudden bloody scene frightened the beautiful ladies present and made them scream.

Xuanyuan Yuchuan stared at the fainted empress dowager for a moment, and then returned to his usual expression of keeping people at a distance. He said in a cold voice: "This prince does not like others to get close to him. I hope that all the ladies will understand this prince's recklessness, especially Madam Guizhi, please forgive this prince's impulsiveness."

A murderous aura stirred up a pool of clear water.

Nanny Guizhi is over fifty years old. She was a servant born in the Empress Dowager's household and has been in the palace for decades. She has seen countless storms and battles, and has also seen countless lives being born and lost. It was beyond her imagination that she would suffer such a disaster.

Hu Luanfei smelled the blood and couldn't help vomiting on the spot. During this period, one person took the lead and the others behind him also vomited.

The scene was chaotic for a while, but Xuanyuan Yuchuan sat calmly drinking.

The empress dowager was carried out of the main hall. The empress could not bear the fright and let the palace servants help her into the empress dowager's bedroom.

At this point, it would be hard for the banquet to end.

Hu Luanfei's eyes slowly swept over Xuanyuan Yuchuan, and saw that the maple leaf bracelet he was caressing became more and more rosy and bright red. Her heart was beating fast, and she wanted to speak, but she was so surprised that she couldn't utter a word. She could only let Le Yao help her walk out of the hall, away from the bloody smell in the room.

The imperial physicians filed in, while the concubines and female family members stood outside the bedroom in fear.

Xuanyuan Yuchuan walked out slowly, holding his face. The scars on his face and his current expression made him look as terrifying as a Shura from hell.

She thought about the subtle change in the Empress Dowager's expression when she questioned her relationship with Hu Cuiwei, which made her feel annoyed. She was thinking about how to get some information from her.

"Brother, you just went too far."

Suddenly, when he heard Hu Luanfei calling him "brother", Xuanyuan Yuchuan paused and was stunned. Suddenly, his brows relaxed, and even the scar on his face smiled. But in a moment, he regained his expression, narrowed his eyes, and a cold chill immediately spread throughout his body, "The Queen Mother and the Queen Mother are full of hostility towards my mother. Luanfei, I don't want to continue to be a coward."

Occasionally, a gust of wind blows through the sultry long street, bringing a hint of coolness.

Someone was vaguely walking towards them quickly. Hu Luanfei frowned, "There are many people in the harem, so we need to be careful about what we say. The fewer people who know about our relationship, the better."

Xuanyuan Yuchuan was about to speak when he saw a young eunuch carrying a food box and walking hurriedly towards the Cining Palace. When he passed by, he seemed to have just seen Hu Luanfei and Xuanyuan Yuchuan. He was stunned for a moment, then he knelt down to salute after he reacted.

Hu Luanfei looked at him with a smile, "Xiao Lanzi is so anxious, where are you going to report?"

"Is the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet over?" Xiao Lanzi came from the imperial kitchen and had no idea what happened in the Cining Palace.

Hu Luanfei nodded. "Something happened, so the meeting was adjourned early. Why, are you going to the Cining Palace?"

"This is the medicinal food that the Empress Dowager ordered the Imperial Kitchen to cook. It was originally intended to be sent to His Majesty, but His Majesty has been tired and exhausted recently. He feels sleepy every time he sees this medicinal food. He must have gotten tired of it, so he sent a servant to take it from the Cining Palace and give it to the Crown Prince. Unexpectedly..."

Hu Luanfei opened the food box and took a look at the medicinal food in the pure white stew pot. There was a chicken wing with some Codonopsis pilosula, red dates and other medicinal ingredients. It seemed to be a soup that could replenish qi and blood.

Xuanyuan Yuchuan picked up the stew pot and was about to taste it on the street, but the maple leaf bracelet on his wrist suddenly changed color.

Hu Luanfei hurriedly stopped him, "Wait, there's something fishy going on."

She took off the silver hairpin in her hair and tried it. The tip of the hairpin quickly turned black. "This thing is poisonous!"

When Xiao Lanzi heard this, he immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "Princess, please forgive me, and Prince, please spare my life. I brought this medicinal food from the imperial kitchen, and I didn't know it was poisonous!"

Xiao Lanzi's forehead was swollen from the blows, so Hu Luanfei ordered him to stand up and speak, "Did anyone open the food box during the journey?"

"No..." Xiao Lanzi hesitated, as if remembering something.

"Don't be afraid, just say whatever you want to say."

Xiao Lan Zi looked around and saw that no one was passing by. He whispered, "The chef in the imperial kitchen let slip this morning that Nanny Guizhi, who was beside the Empress Dowager, had seen this medicinal food when the palace servants were stewing soup. The chefs thought that Nanny Guizhi was there to supervise and ignored it. But when the time came and the food was not served, the chefs felt strange and were discussing it."

"What do you think?" Hu Luanfei turned to ask Xuanyuan Yuchuan.

"If it was Aunt Guizhi who poisoned him, it would be too obvious."

"You also suspect that someone is interfering, right?"

Xuanyuan Yuchuan said, "Hmm," Someone wants to kill two birds with one stone."

"Who could it be?" Hu Luanfei stroked his chin and thought.

Xiao Lanzi Wuxin said, "Your Majesty has been feeling unwell lately, and the Third Prince has been helping to handle many matters of the previous dynasty."

This is what hit me hard.

His Majesty is not feeling well, so the Third Prince is helping to handle government affairs.

The prince is now the dragon pearl in the heart of King Beiqiu and the only candidate to sit on the throne.

If Xuanyuan Yuchuan is eliminated first, then the remaining Xuanyuan Yuqing will not be a threat.

Could it be that the third prince is really pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger?

Xuanyuan Yuchuan picked up the stewing pot again, and by the time Hu Luanfei reacted, most of the soup in the pot had been drunk.

"You're crazy, this medicinal food is poisonous." Hu Luanfei immediately took off the water bottle from his waist and handed it to him, "This is a spiritual spring that can cure all poisons. Drink it!"

Xuanyuan Yuchuan refused: "I want to see who wants to harm me."

Hu Luanfei rolled his eyes helplessly: "Of course it's the one who has a son!"

The poison in the medicinal food took effect quickly, and soon, Xuanyuan Yuchuan's lips had turned black and purple.

Upon seeing this, Hu Luanfei immediately ordered Xiao Lanzi to report to Xuanyuan Li.

This is the harem. Xuanyuan Yuchuan is already an adult man and is not allowed to sleep in any palace in the harem, unless it is the cold palace.

Hu Luanfei didn't think too much and called a few palace servants from the street to send him to the cold palace where he used to go.
