MTL - Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year-Chapter 567 Help
In the imperial study room.
Mo Lingwei was wearing the prince's robe and was sitting on the main seat in the middle, chatting with seven or eight humerus ministers.
These ministers are all the confidants left by the emperor to the prince to cultivate well.
Everyone is around thirty-five years old. When the prince ascends the throne in the future, they will form a new circle of powerful officials in Cangyun Kingdom.
Therefore, those old loyal ministers, such as Prime Minister Xie, General Chen and others, are not included in this list.
At today's meeting, in addition to ordinary discussions, Mo Lingwei also routinely asked them for their political opinions.
A circle of people sat and discussed politics, with the prince in the center.
The **** came up with bowls of fine Mingqian Longjing and placed one at everyone's hand.
Mo Lingwei was listening to the Minister of Household Affairs' report on the main government affairs. He picked up the teacup at hand and had just skimmed off the foam before he could drink it into his mouth.
Just then I heard a sweet voice shouting from the door: "Don't drink!"
As soon as Mo Lingwei stopped moving, Shen Ningning had already barged in regardless of the eunuchs and the imperial army's obstruction.
Several ministers put down their tea cups one after another and stood up to greet the princess. There was doubt in everyone's eyes.
The imperial study is an important place for government affairs. Anyone who breaks into it without permission may be punished.
However, the other party was Princess Funing.
The imperial guards stood at the door, in a dilemma, but saw Mo Lingwei raise his hand to signal them not to act rashly.
He looked at Shen Ningning, and the girl rushed directly in front of him and took the tea cup from his hand.
Then, he poured the tea into the window sill next to him, and the beautiful hosta potted plant in full bloom was showered with tea.
“Your Highness the Princess, this is...” the Minister of Household Affairs was surprised.
Shen Ningning ran over, panting, and there was a thin layer of sweat on her white forehead.
A pair of beautiful black, round and moist eyes were full of nervousness.
She stood nearby, staring closely at the potted plant.
Mo Lingwei walked over and took his towel from nowhere: "Wipe it."
Shen Ningning didn't answer. The ministers gathered around curiously and stared at the potted plants together.
After a while, the hosta flower quickly withered and turned yellow, visible to the naked eye.
Shen Ningning's heart sank: "The tea is really poisonous!"
The ministers were shocked and turned around to look at the tea they had not drunk yet: "Poisonous?!"
Mo Lingwei frowned with sharp eyebrows.
The one who was most afraid was Master Taishi. He covered his neck with a look of panic.
"It's over! It's over! I was so thirsty just now that I took a few sips."
The rest of the courtiers were even more frightened, and gathered together to stay away from him.
The Minister of Household Affairs asked hurriedly: "Tai Shi, how do you feel now?"
Tai Shi held his stomach and said, "There was a dull pain in my abdomen just now, and now the feeling seems to be more intense."
As he said that, he felt a painful abdominal pain and knelt down directly.
Shen Ningning exclaimed, and Mo Lingwei protected her behind him, and immediately ordered in a cold voice: "Pass it to the imperial doctor! Whoever was responsible for the tea just now, please pass it on."
The imperial army helped and carried the Taishi, who was pale in pain, to the soft couch under the window.
The other courtiers were all frightened when they heard his ouch ouch calls.
This is the Imperial Study Room. If someone dares to poison here, I simply don’t want to live.
Before the imperial doctor arrived, Shen Ningning repeatedly grabbed Mo Lingwei's sleeve and asked him, "You didn't drink, did you? Not even a sip?"
Seeing that she cared so much about him, she finally no longer looked so cold. Mo Lingwei actually had the thought to smile warmly. He reassured her repeatedly: "I didn't drink a sip. You came in time, don't worry."
After saying that, he took the initiative to wipe away the beads of sweat sliding down Shen Ningning's cheeks. The girl seemed to be frightened and did not resist his touch for the time being.
After a while, the imperial doctor arrived, and Mo Lingwei asked him to check the Taishi's pulse first.
At the same time, the young **** who was responsible for serving tea and two palace servants were also brought for questioning.
The little **** was named Blind Sheng, probably because his mother was a blind woman. After the little **** entered the palace, because he was smart and loyal, he has been serving in Zichen Palace.
It can even be said that he is half of Mo Lingwei's confidants.
When he saw the blind student being brought up, even Mo Lingwei frowned in disbelief.
The blind student was frightened and his whole body was shaking.
The two palace men hurriedly distanced themselves from each other.
“His Royal Highness Mingjian, the blind student has always been responsible for the tea service in the Royal Study. We are only responsible for helping to burn firewood and make tea.”
"Yes, Your Highness, just now the blind man was standing by the tea stove alone. The slaves really didn't know what he had done."
Mo Lingwei glanced at the blind student with a stern gaze: "They are indeed right, right? Remember, you are responsible for every tea delivered."
In doing so, we are also afraid that someone is really up to something evil.
No matter how clever the blind student is usually, now his eyes are red with fear and his body is shaking like a fallen leaf in the wind.
"Your Highness, give me eight hundred courages, and I won't dare to poison you! It's true that the tea is prepared by me alone, but from making the tea to serving it, I'm all watching, and I don't do anything to anyone. But how dare I poison you and the adults!"
These are the prince and seven or eight humerus ministers!
If he really poisoned the country, he would harm the future of the Cangyun Kingdom, and the entire nine tribes who were still alive would be implicated by him.
His tongue trembled in blind eagerness.
The Minister of Household Affairs said angrily: "You are a naughty slave, you must be making excuses. Your Highness, I think that if I send him to a violent chamber and torture him severely, he will definitely confess."
Mo Lingwei pursed his thin lips, and his dark brows revealed a strong chill.
Blind Sheng kept kowtowing: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince clearly knows that in front of the princess Fu Nu, I am willing to swear that if I poison you, I will let the sky thunder and strike!"
The ministers looked at each other.
Ever since seeing Shen Ningning's abilities, no one in the entire Cangyun Kingdom dared not deny that she was a blessed girl.
She is the representative of the gods in the mortal world. If he dares to swear in front of her, is it really not him who did this?
Shen Ningning took a step forward and asked in a clear voice with seriousness: "Did you add anything to the tea?"
“No!” Blind Sheng quickly denied.
Suddenly.
He reacted: "I didn't add poison, but if the princess asks anything else, I will... I will..."
The blind man looked at the prince.
Mo Lingwei frowned slightly, Shen Ningning had already looked towards him.
The girl looked puzzled: "Don't you dare say it?"
The blind student was hesitating, and he was still somewhat confident just now, but now, his eyes kept glancing at Mo Lingwei's expression, not knowing whether he should say anything or not.
Shen Ningning suddenly had a guess.
She looked at Mo Lingwei suddenly, and she was more suspicious of him in her clear, glistening eyes.
When Mo Lingwei saw this, he knew that if he didn't explain, she might still suspect that he deliberately ordered the palace people to poison him as a cruel trick.
He frowned and sighed: "That's all, tell them."
It is not a shameful thing originally.
Mo Lingwei refused to let him speak because he was afraid that the ministers and the emperor would be worried.
The blind man knelt on the ground and said hurriedly: "My servant did add something to His Highness's cup, but it's not poison."
