After the heroine was robbed, save the paranoid villain

She usually didn't eat much, so after tasting a little of everything this time, Ningxia was worried that she would feel uncomfortable if she went to bed right away, so she poured Yan Yu another cup of tea.

It was indeed a bit cold after being outside for so long. Yan Yu's fingertips were icy cold, so he held the teacup to warm his hands.

When Xiao Chengji came in from outside, he saw the master and his servants in the yard.

As soon as they saw the King of Qin appear, several maids and nannies hurriedly saluted him.

Yan Yu quickly stood up: "Your Highness is here? You just returned home? Did you eat anything tonight?"

Xiao Chengji naturally didn’t have any. When he was busy, he had no time to eat.

In addition, the person he personally interrogated today was so bloody and disgusting that even a normal person would not be able to eat.

Yan Yu pulled him to sit down, quickly asked the maid to tell the kitchen to prepare some food, and then pushed the mooncakes in front of him to fill his stomach first.

Xiao Chengji tasted two pieces of ham filling and took a sip of tea.

Yan Yu and Xiao Chengji talked about what happened in the Queen Mother's Palace during the day, and then frowned: "Miss Ma stayed in the Queen Mother's Palace. I don't know if the Queen Mother is kind in front of people, but will beat her, scold her, and set rules behind her back."

Xiao Chengji now has made up his mind.

He had talked to Yan Yu once before, and Yan Yu really understood what he meant and reminded Mrs. Ma at the critical moment.

But Mrs. Ma was unwilling to appreciate this favor and didn't think deeply about it, so there was nothing we could do.

Many times, the turning point of many things often happens in a moment, and it depends on whether you can seize it.

Anyway, the Qin Palace has done its best.

If Madam Ma dared to offend the Empress Dowager, and dared to make excuses saying that she couldn't keep her because of something going on at home or that her daughter was clumsy and couldn't serve the Empress Dowager, once this intention was revealed, in front of so many people, Empress Dowager Zheng would never force her to stay.

Mrs. Ma and Miss Ma both had some fantasies about the Queen Mother, and always felt that the Queen Mother was really as kind as she appeared to be.

Xiao Chengji said: "The Queen Mother will not beat or scold her. You have done what you can do. Don't worry about this matter anymore."

According to Xiao Chengji's understanding of Queen Mother Zheng, Queen Mother Zheng puts her own interests first and will most likely use some powerful means to pressure the other party and make them submit.

Some dishes were quickly prepared in the kitchen. Originally, the stove in the kitchen was about to go out at this time, so no dishes would be prepared. Yan Yu thought that today was Mid-Autumn Festival and Xiao Chengji would most likely come back for dinner, so he asked his small kitchen to prepare.

Xiao Chengji took a look and saw squirrel mandarin fish, steamed deer tail, crab meat tofu, fermented rice wine with eight treasures duck, stir-fried quinoa and ginseng, red dates and black chicken soup on the table. There were not many varieties and the dishes were not rich, but they smelled delicious and the presentation was exquisite and beautiful.

It was already very late, and under normal circumstances the kitchen could not prepare such exquisite food. Yan Yu usually did not eat much meat, so this table was definitely not prepared for her alone. Xiao Chengji guessed that it was specially prepared to entertain him.

He had just eaten a little before going out in the morning, and now when he smelled the aroma of the food, he really felt hungry.

Yan Yu served him a small bowl of rice and another small bowl of soup.

Before Xiao Chengji finished his meal, the spies in the palace passed him some news.

Something really happened to the young lady from the Ma family.

When Madam Ma returned to the general's mansion, Master Ma was a little anxious because he didn't see his sister coming back with him. He quickly asked Madam Ma where his sister was.

Mrs. Ma told her son the truth.

At that time, Mr. Ma felt that something was not good.

Madam Ma was not in the court, so she was not very clear about what the Zheng family had done over the years. Although Master Ma had never met Queen Mother Zheng, he knew in his heart that if Queen Mother Zheng was really such a harmless old lady, the Zheng Party would not have been so fearless in doing so many evil things.

Young Master Ma sighed, "Mother, we are the ones who have offended the Queen Mother. What do you think of letting my sister stay in that tiger's den?"

"Since your sister hasn't made an engagement with the Fifth Prince, why can't she get engaged to someone else? At the time, the Princess of Qin also hinted that I should refuse, but I felt that the Queen Mother was not the kind of unreasonable old lady. If I refused her and offended her, it would only create a feud between the two families."

Madam Ma explained, "Xiao'er, don't think too much. It's better to resolve a feud than to create one. If there is one less enemy in our house, your future will be smoother. Besides, your sister is so smart and clever. If she really encounters a problem, she can resolve it. Even if you don't trust me, you have to trust your sister."

Ma Xiao always felt uneasy and was very worried.

It just so happened that General Weiyuan was not at home these two days because he was training troops in the military camp, and he didn't even have anyone to discuss things with.

Ma Xiao didn't sleep well all night and woke up before dawn to practice shooting in the yard.

When it was time for breakfast, a piece of news came from the palace. Ma Xiao and Madam Ma were struck by lightning and they both sat down on their chairs.

Yesterday, the Queen Mother, the Emperor, the Queen, and all the concubines, princes and princesses in the harem watched the moon.

Normally, it was so late and the Seventh Prince Xiao Qirui should have gone back early. However, Queen Mother Zheng liked the Seventh Prince so much that she asked him to stay with her and drink a few more glasses of wine. She also asked him to accompany her to Shoukang Palace.

It is normal for a grandson to accompany his grandmother to watch the moon and drink wine.

Somehow, Queen Mother Zheng asked the palace maids to serve her sobering soup, and the group of people didn't keep an eye on the Seventh Prince. When they saw the Seventh Prince again, he had already slept with Miss Ma. The two of them had done everything in their dishevelled clothes.

Rumors had already spread in the Empress Dowager's palace last night, saying that Miss Ma was not decent. The Empress Dowager was kind enough to keep her in the palace, but she ended up having the audacity to seduce the prince.

The most important thing is that these rumors also say that Miss Ma is not a virgin, and she did not have sex when she was with the Seventh Prince. God knows what other men she had hooked up with before.

Mrs. Ma couldn't believe this fact and fainted instantly.

On the one hand, Ma Xiao was furious, and on the other hand, he quickly called a doctor to see Mrs. Ma.

Miss Ma was also sent back to the Ma family in the morning. She was drowsy and confused. She had no memory of what happened last night. This morning, she felt that the maids in the Empress Dowager's palace looked at her with strange eyes, and she felt unwell. Then, the Empress Dowager Zheng said sternly that she would not stay any longer and asked her to go back to the Ma family.

Ma Xiao didn't care about the differences between men and women. He shook her shoulders and asked her about what happened yesterday. Miss Ma couldn't remember anything. She only remembered that she drank something last night and fell asleep on the table.
