Spring Drunk Chang'an

Song Zhinian blinked at Liu Changan, who understood. Although he was reluctant, he stopped trying to stop her. Hesitantly, she nodded and said, "Okay then. Xiaoyue and I will go back with the lady-in-waiting, and you..."

"Go early and come back early, don't hang out too late."

She hinted.

Song Zhinian smiled and replied crisply, "Okay."

Then, he looked at Liu Qingru calmly and said, "Let's go."

Liu Qingru smiled and said hurriedly, "Okay, okay."

But in his heart, he cursed maliciously, "Song Zhinian, you're so arrogant! I'll let you be arrogant! Let's see how long you can be arrogant."

It's almost time. After you meet Prince Yan and enter the mansion, you can only kneel at my feet and cry.

She comforted herself in this way, forcing a smile as hard as she could, and led Song Zhinian along. The two of them walked side by side into the Imperial Garden, along the path, admiring all kinds of rare treasures and sights.

They ran to the zoo, teased the cranes for a long time, and played with the fawns. They played for half an hour. Liu Qingru was sweating and panting from running all the way.

She glanced sideways at Song Zhinian and saw that her temples were also damp and her face was slightly red. She felt that this was her chance and said casually, "Zhinian, I'm so tired. I'm soaked. Let's go to the small building over there to rest our feet and cool down. What do you think?"

Next to the menagerie, there is a three-story building called Guanhuyuan, which is used for resting while visiting the garden. There are six such buildings in the Imperial Garden.

Unremarkable.

Song Zhinian raised an eyebrow, knowing that the problem might be there. However, as the saying goes, "No venture, no gain." She even saw the eunuch serving in the zoo winking at her...

I guess the people sent by the prince's cousin have been protecting her.

What's so scary about her?

"Okay, let's go!" Song Zhinian responded readily.

Liu Qingru was overjoyed, and fearing that she would regret it, she reached out and grabbed her sleeve. The two of them walked quickly towards the small building and went straight in. Without saying a word, Liu Qingru dragged Song Zhinian up to the third floor and then ordered the palace maid in the building, "Go and make a pot of tea. I'm dying of thirst."

The palace maid guarding the tower responded, "Yes."

Then he turned and left, and came back with tea after a while.

After they drank a cup and quenched their thirst temporarily, Liu Qingru said to Song Zhinian, "Let's stand on a high place and take in the scenery in the garden!"

"Look, there's a fence..."

Song Zhinian stood up obediently with a smile on his face, walked towards the fence, but glanced back out of the corner of his eye.

Sure enough, she saw Liu Qingru acting stealthily. She took out a porcelain bottle from her bosom, poured some medicine powder into her tea bowl, and then washed it down with hot tea.

The medicinal powder was melted. Liu Qingru carried two bowls of tea and followed Song Zhinian to the railing, handing her the bowl with powder.

"The wind is cool at the railing, so warm yourself with some tea."

She pretended to speak nonchalantly, but her eyes were fixed on the tea bowl.

Song Zhinian shook the tea, and a mischievous thought arose in her mind. She thought to herself: What would happen if she poured this cup of tea directly on Liu Qingru's face?

Will Liu Qingru jump up? What kind of expression will she have?

Too bad it can't be done.

I can't ruin the arrangements made by my cousin the Crown Prince...

Song Zhinian sighed and drank the tea in one gulp.

Liu Qingru's face was almost distorted in an instant, and her eyes were frighteningly bright.

Song Zhinian pretended not to see it and chatted with her idly. Then, time passed slowly. She watched as Liu Qingru's head drooped more and more as she spoke, her eyes half open, as if she was in a state of panic.

Song Zhinian raised his eyebrows and closed his mouth.

Liu Qingru trembled all over and fell to the ground.

As if asleep, but also as if in a coma.

"Uh, what should I do now?" Song Zhinian muttered to himself.

"Miss, please follow me..."

Suddenly, there was a sound at the stairs. Song Zhinian turned around and saw the palace maid guarding the building coming up with a little eunuch.

The palace maid came to Song Zhinian and led her downstairs.

The young eunuch half dragged and half picked up Liu Qingru and put her on the couch.

"Did you tamper with the tea? Why did she faint?" Song Zhinian asked curiously as they walked.

The maid guarding the tower shook her head and replied with a smile, "How could it be so obvious? If something is put in the tea, wouldn't it be clear if they investigate?"

"What is that?" Song Zhinian became even more curious.

"It's spices." The palace maid on guard said frankly, "When she was in Chuxiu Palace, she added some things to her daily food, but it was originally harmless. It was only when she encountered this spice today that the two added together to stimulate the medicinal properties..."

"spices?"

Song Zhinian was startled, sniffed, and sniffed carefully. Sure enough, there was a very faint scent of plum blossoms in the building. "Won't this be discovered?"

"The viewing tower is well ventilated on all sides. Open the windows and the smell will be gone in half a minute." The palace maid guarding the tower smiled.

After hearing this, Song Zhinian suddenly understood and followed him obediently.

In the viewing tower, the young eunuch settled Liu Qingru down and placed a finely crafted and very sturdy copper hairpin next to her hand.

The branches of the copper hairpin are slightly pointed.

He stopped doing all this, cleaned up the house, and left quickly.

Silence returned to the room, with only Liu Qingru lying there face down.

for a long time……

Xiao Xun walked into the small building with a letter in her hand. Her face was a little red and her eyes were a little confused.

Long before he set off, he took some drugs to prove his innocence.

According to his plan, he received a letter from Song Zhinian. He didn't know what was going on, but he was very concerned, so he came to see her...

Then, when he entered the small building, he saw Song Zhinian and Liu Qingru. They invited him to drink a cup of tea, and then he lost his mind and raped Song Zhinian and Liu Qingru.

As for why this happened? Either Liu Qingru plotted against Song Zhinian, or Song Zhinian wanted to harm Liu Qingru?

Liu Qingru would insist that it was Song Zhinian who harmed her, but ended up hurting herself and both of them were implicated. However, Xiao Xun could not predict whether Queen Song believed it or would continue to investigate.

Anyway, he is innocent.

Moreover, in order to prove his innocence, he really took some strong medicine in advance. When he entered the small building, a faint fragrance of plum blossoms filled his nose, making him dizzy.

His eyes grew redder and redder, his mind in a trance. On the third floor of Shangde, he saw a woman lying on the bed, her graceful figure with her back to him...

Xiao Xun's head buzzed, and without caring about anything else, he pounced forward.

Liu Qingru was awakened by a terrifying nightmare. When she woke up, she found a man lying on top of her.

For some reason, she felt extreme fear and inexplicable anger in her heart, her eyes were blurred, and the blood in her chest was boiling.

Acting completely on instinct, she quickly grabbed whatever was at hand and stabbed the man on top of her.
