Chapter 203 I’m here
Faced with the young eunuch's unusual behavior, Chu Yuheng instantly realized what had happened in the side hall.
But before he could say anything to stop her, the eunuch said, "Princess Pingle is in the side hall, and, and His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince is also here..."
It goes without saying that everyone present instantly understood what had happened in the side hall. They all turned their eyes to Chu Yuheng and nervously observed the environment around them.
Upon hearing this, Chu Yuheng kicked the eunuch down and said, "Shut your mouth! How dare you wrongly accuse Princess Pingle and the Seventh Prince? I will definitely exterminate your entire clan!"
As expected, this happened. What happened at the banquet just now? Why were Yu Wangfei and Chu Fei framed?
Because Chu Yuheng knew that Chu Fei already had someone in his heart, and he also knew that he would not be interested in Yu Wangfei, so he believed that there was nothing wrong between them and that all this was a deliberate frame-up.
The Imperial Concubine closed her eyes speechlessly. How could she not know what kind of person her son was? If Chu Fei was really interested in women, then she should thank Yu Wangfei for curing Chu Fei's hidden illness.
"What? This is really happening!" Lu Xiaoting shouted, then she picked up the lantern and walked towards the side hall without looking back, "Don't be afraid, Wang Fei, I'm here to save you."
She did it on purpose. She wanted everyone present to see Yu Wangfei's naked appearance. In this way, she wanted to see how Yu Wangfei could have the nerve to marry Chu Yuheng!
Seeing this, everyone didn't dare to move forward. They were worried that Chu Yuheng would kill them if they saw something they shouldn't see.
Just when Lu Xiaoting was about to push open the red door of the side hall, Chu Fei suddenly opened the door and appeared in front of everyone.
"Where is Wang Fei?" Lu Xiaoting asked deliberately, and leaned in to see the scene in the room clearly.
"I'm here. Did Sister Xiaoting miss me?" Yu Wangfei walked out from behind the crowd with a seductive smile on her lips. "Why are you all gathered here? What happened?"
Seeing Yu Wangfei walking out from behind the crowd, Lu Xiaoting's face suddenly darkened. She couldn't understand why Yu Wangfei was not in the side hall. It was obviously a carefully designed trap, but Yu Wangfei escaped. Damn it!
Just after Yu Wangfei arrived at the side hall, she smelled the scent of aphrodisiac incense. Her many years of medical experience made her particularly wary of this kind of poison. In addition, the emperor had previously summoned her to the imperial study, but now it was a side hall not far from the imperial garden.
This made Yu Wangfei suspicious, so he quietly jumped out of the back window of the side hall.
After she left the side hall, she found a young eunuch walking over with the drunk Chu Fei and throwing him into the room.
In just a moment, Yu Wangfei knew that someone had deliberately framed her. The person behind the scenes wanted her to have a relationship with Chu Fei in order to destroy the alliance between Chu Yuheng and Chu Fei, create a rift between the two of them, and thus make Chu Fei lose his support in the fight for the throne.
Maybe the person behind the scenes is leading everyone at the banquet towards this side.
However, judging from Chu Fei's appearance, he should have been poisoned. But if she rashly went in to detoxify Chu Fei now, she might be caught on the spot by the person behind the scenes.
After careful consideration, Yu Wangfei decided to hide first and then decide based on the situation.
Sure enough, just after Yu Wangfei hid, Lu Xiaoting brought everyone to this side hall. Needless to say, this incident must have been designed by Lu Xiaoting.
"We heard that Wang Fei was missing, so we came to look for you." Lu Xiaoting restrained her anger, tried hard to force a smile, and held the lantern tightly in both hands, her eyes full of murderous intent.
"Sister Xiaoting brought so many people here, I thought they were here to arrest me." Yu Wangfei smiled deliberately, then walked to Chu Yuheng.
Seeing that Yu Wangfei was safe and sound, Chu Yuheng took a long breath and temporarily felt relieved.
At this time, Chu Yuheng discovered that the corner of Yu Wangfei's skirt was still wet, and it seemed that she had not changed her clothes. Although the weather was warmer now, Chu Yuheng was still worried that wearing wet clothes would make her sick.
"How could that be? I'm just worried about Wang Fei's comfort." Lu Xiaoting looked calm.
She knew that she had to endure her hot-tempered temper. If her temper delayed her master's good deeds, or if Yu Wangfei found out that she was the one who planned all this, she would definitely be abandoned by her master and end up with no trace left.
"Thank you, Sister Xiaoting, for your concern." Yu Wangfei smiled slightly, then looked at Chu Yuheng again.
She did not expect Chu Yuheng to suddenly enter the palace, because the emperor had ordered that Chu Yuheng was not allowed to enter the palace without being summoned, so his entry into the palace tonight was against the emperor's order and was disobeying the emperor's order!
Therefore, Yu Wangfei did not want to argue too much with Lu Xiaoting now. It was enough for him to know in his heart that it was her who did it. If he held Lu Xiaoting captive and conducted a large-scale investigation in the palace, Chu Yuheng would probably be in trouble.
The most important thing now is to exonerate Chu Yuheng. After all, disobeying the order is a capital crime.
"Greetings to the Imperial Concubine and the Ninth Prince." Feng Zhao suddenly appeared. He first bowed respectfully to the Imperial Concubine, then quickly ran to the side hall and helped Chu Fei out.
At this moment, Chu Fei's eyes were infatuated, his cheeks were flushed, and even his steps were erratic. Yu Wangfei could tell at once that he was drugged by aphrodisiac.
Lu Xiaoting is so bold that she even dares to give the Seventh Prince an aphrodisiac. Isn't she afraid of being discovered? Murdering a prince is a serious crime that will lead to the confiscation of all property and the extermination of the entire family!
"Your Highness, Ninth Prince, the Seventh Prince is drunk. I will take him out of the palace to rest first." Feng Zhao looked at the Royal Concubine respectfully and lowered his head obediently.
"Go and rest early." The imperial concubine waved her hand, signaling him to leave quickly and not to interfere any more.
She didn't want her son to get involved in this kind of thing.
Yu Wangfei put the antidote in a handkerchief, and then handed it to Feng Zhao: "I see that His Highness is sweating, Lord Feng, please wipe the sweat off His Highness more carefully."
"Thank you, Princess." Feng Zhao looked at Yu Wangfei gratefully, then left with Chu Fei.
After he put Chu Fei on the carriage, he took out the antidote from Yu Wangfei's handkerchief. Upon closer inspection, it seemed to be the antidote for the aphrodisiac powder. Then Feng Zhao observed Chu Fei's condition again. He could now confirm that the Seventh Prince was poisoned.
But how can the only way to detoxify be to take the antidote? Feng Zhao threw the antidote out of the carriage window and looked at Chu Fei affectionately: "Your Highness, I will help you detoxify now, okay?"
Chu Fei opened his eyes in a daze and found that the person opposite him was Feng Zhao. He hugged him with great trust: "Okay."
