Chapter 676

  Li Qiong returned to his residence and found that Mr. Zhu was standing under the corridor, apparently waiting for him.

  He couldn't help but ask.

   "It's so late, why hasn't the husband been asleep yet?"

  Mr. Zhu arched his hand at him: "His Royal Highness should have just returned from Yufu Palace? What did the noble concubine empress say?"

  Li Qiong pursed her lower lip: "Mother concubine denied Gu's speculation. She said that people can't come back to life after death. She also let Gu take a good rest and stop thinking about it."

  Mr. Zhu: "His Royal Highness believes what the imperial concubine said?"

  Li Qiong said authentically without hesitation.

   "The imperial concubine is a lonely mother concubine, and she believes what she said."

  Mr. Zhu smiled slightly: "In that case, nothing has happened to your Highness's bento. Please rest early and leave now."

   Seeing that he turned around and was about to leave, there was no intention to argue at all, Li Qiong couldn't help calling him.

   "You wait a minute."

  Mr. Zhu respectfully said: "What else does your Highness have to say?"

  Emotionally, Li Qiong is willing to believe in his mother and concubine.

  But reason tells him that the words of the mother and concubine cannot be trusted.

  For so many years, the mother concubine has been guilty of herself for the death of the regent. If the regent does come back to life, the mother concubine will do her best to protect her.

  Li Qiong: "Tomorrow, you take the lonely to see that woman."

  Hearing is better than seeing.

  He has to see the woman in person before making a decision.

  Mr. Zhu was not surprised by this result and calmly responded.

   "Here."

  The next morning, Li Qiong, accompanied by Mr. Zhu, went to the Shen Xing Department in person.

  Across the small window above the cell, the two people saw the flowers inside.

  At this moment, she was sitting on the cold ground, with her back against the wall, her head hanging down, motionless, looking like she was asleep.

  The food at the door has been completely cold.

  Looking like that, it should be no move.

  Mr. Zhu looked at the jailer standing next to him and asked.

   "Why doesn't she eat?"

  The jailer did not dare to conceal it, and answered truthfully: “Since this girl came in, she has not eaten or drink. You have said that she cannot be tortured, so we dare not use strong ones, so we can only let her go.”

  Mr. Zhu frowned.

  Counting days, three days have passed since Hua Manman was imprisoned.

  She hasn't eaten anything for three days.

  It’s no wonder that she was sitting still, probably because she was hungry and passed out.

  Mr. Zhu immediately ordered someone to open the prison door to see what happened to Hua Manman?

  The jailer walked to her, and first called her twice, but when she saw that she didn't respond, he stretched out his hand and pushed her again.

  As a result, she slipped and fell to the ground.

  The jailer hurriedly said to Mr. Zhu and the prince.

   "She passed out!"

  Mr. Zhu keeps the flower manman very useful, so naturally he can't just watch her starve to death, and immediately said to the prince.

   "Hurry up and ask the doctor to come over and show her. If she dies, no one can control Li Ji."

  Li Qiong looked at the woman on the ground.

  His mother and concubine once told him that when he was very young, the aunt held him.

  But at that time, he was still infancy, his memory had been blurred, and he could not remember the appearance of his aunt at all.

  So he couldn't tell whether the woman in front of him was the princess regent.

  Seeing Mr. Zhu’s expression solemnly, he didn't seem to be joking. In the end, he chose to believe in Mr. Zhu and ordered someone to seek an imperial doctor.

When Hua Manman woke up, she found that she was no longer in the cell.

  She was lying on the bed, and the scene around her was very strange.

"Woke up?"

  Flower walked through the prestige and saw Mr. Zhu sitting next to the table.

  She subconsciously tensed her body and entered a state of alert.

"who are you?"

  Mr. Zhu held a cup of hot tea in his hand, with a gentle smile on his face, his eyes full of tolerance and love when he looked at Hua Manman.

  It looks like the elders are looking at their juniors.

  Seeing Huamanman uncomfortably.

  Mr. Zhu: "Under the surname Zhu, you can call me Mr. Zhu."

  Hua Manman: "Where is this? What are you doing with me?"

  While questioning, she put her hand under the quilt and quietly touched her calf.

  When she touched a familiar hard object, she was secretly relieved until the dagger was still there.

  Mr. Zhu: "You can ask me if you have any questions, as long as I know it, I will tell you, but before that, you have to drink this bowl of porridge."

  His finger tapped on the desktop.

   A bowl of millet porridge is quietly placed on the table.

  Hua Manman vigilantly said: "How do I know that you didn't put medicine in the food?"

  Mr. Zhu: "You are very important to us, and it is impossible for us to hurt you."

  Hua Manman's face was full of suspicion.

  Mr. Zhu was very helpless: "If I wanted to harm you, you would have already died, so why should I go in such a big circle?"

Hua Manman curled his lips: "I heard that some people are born with perverts. They think it is too boring to kill people directly. They deliberately set up traps to tease others, so as to enjoy the pleasure of playing with others in applause. Who knows you are? Isn't that kind of pervert?"

  Mr. Zhu: "……"

  Since words didn’t make sense, he had to prove it with actions.

  He picked up the rice porridge that night and took a sip.

   "Now I have also drank this porridge. If the porridge is poisonous, I will definitely get the trick before you, so you should believe me?"

  Hua Manman: "What if you take the medicine in advance?"

  Mr. Zhu put down the bowl: "How can you eat?"

  Flower Manman: "It's very simple, let me be free."

  Mr. Zhu returned three words slowly.

"impossible."

  Hua Manman lay down again, with her hands folded on her chest, like a corpse.

   "Then you can just watch me starve to death."

Mr. Zhu: "If you die, you will never see your husband and son again. Are you willing to leave them behind?"

  Flower Manman closed her eyes and pretended not to hear anything.

  Mr. Zhu continued to behave in a good way.

   "Given how much Li Ji cares about you, if he knows that you are dead, he must be crazy. Do you have the heart to watch him fall into pain for you?"

  Flowered eyelashes trembled lightly, but still did not respond.

Mr. Zhu: "And Li Xun. He has no mother since he was a child. He has always been eager to get your care and love. Now you have finally returned, but you have to leave him again. Have you ever thought about how uncomfortable he would be? ?"

  Even though Hua Manman knew that he was deliberately inducing herself, she still couldn't help feeling uncomfortable.

  She remembered how painful Li Ji and Li Xun looked when she disappeared.

  She didn't want to let them experience that kind of pain again.

  Mr. Zhu is like a predecessor who is teaching, his tone is full of concern.

   "No matter what you want to do, you must first ensure that you are alive. Only if you are alive, your husband and son will not have to face the pain of life and death again."

   Hua Manman opened her eyes, turned her head to look at Mr. Zhu, and replied blankly.

   "I don't know anything about Li Ji and Li Xun. I don't know what you are talking about."

  Mr. Zhu said peacefully: "You don’t have to pretend to be stupid anymore. Concubine Zhen has already told us everything. You are Hua Manman, the sister of Concubine Zhen."

  Flower's heart sank.
